Mules, much abused and neglected by farmers. A mule in the first place must be of good stock. not an off spring of some scrubby mare, but mare with good breeding qualities, writes Ed Mclaughlin in the Rural New Yorker A mule of the man. moth stock is supposed to be the best mule under all conditions. Mules are cheaper than colts. for the service fee IS not generally as high Many peo- pie make mistake in working the mare too soon after foaling. Never work mare under ten days. then she can do light work, but the mule must be left in the barn.
 When the mare is brought in from work never allow the mule to suck as long as the mare is warm. After a mule Is two or three weeks old tl1rn 1t out in lot away from the mare. especially at night, for a mule is very hard on mare. much more than colts. When the mule is about two months old he may be allowed to eat a few oats, about a pint in the beginning. Increase as he grows older or the same amount of bran along with a lit tie hay, alfalfa is preferred At the age of nine months a mule should be weaned. not gradually. but all at once. Take it away from the mare and never let it suck afterwards. He should be put by himsels or tied up. At this time you can give an ear of corn at a meal and small amount of hay. The mule should be turned out In fair weather and not left to stand in the stable.
 A mule should be made before he is a year old. This can be done by good breeding and the proper care. It is not necessary to give a great quantity of food to him during the winter, but it must be of the kind to keep him growing. such as alfalfa

Endive may be sown early in cold frames or in the open ground like let tuee. Sowing may also be made at any time during the summer. although plants grown in the heat of midsum- mer have not the best quality Fall grown plants may be taken up with a good supply of adhering earth and stored in a dry cellar for winter use.

The difference between a clean COW and a dirty one is strikingly shown in the picture. The COW on the right had been running on pasture ten days. sleeping out at night, when the photo graph was taken. Naturally great deal of the filth she had accumulated In a vile stable had been rubbed off and washed off by the rains. but enough remains to show that her milk would carry poison to hundreds of gallons when added to that of other cows in the dairy. At the Illinois station 1t was found that the milk from the average, unwashed, un- brushed COW contained many times as much dirt as that from a perfectly

DOWN TO A BUSINESS BASIS
Proud Old Banker Suddenly Decides He Is Interested in the Young
 Mans Career.

"Hhm!" exclaimed the proud old banker as he turned and looked over his glasses at the young man who had been admitted to the inner sane tum. q suppose you have come to ask me for permission to marry my daughter? Well, you cant have her. I've thought the matter over and l am convinced that you are not the kind of chap I'd want for a son-in- law. You're a natural-born politician and I have no use for politicians. You're always running for something. A man who is always doing that can't devote proper attention to his fam fly. I've spoken plainly to you, sir. because I wish you to understand my position in this matter. l don't wish to argue with you about it. You may consider it settled"
 Thank you for your frankness in pointing out my faults as family man; but did not come primarily to ask you for your daughter, al though I had an idea that we might discuss that matter later. What l wished to say this morning was that l have just been elected treasurer Of the biggest and richest club in this city, and that I thought of keeping the funds in your bank. But per haps-"

The stars twinkled as only stars can twinkle The moonbeams beamed as only the moonbeams can beam. The lovers sat and throbbed thrillingly as only lovers can sit and throb thrilling ly.
 Suddenly, as the night owl snored above them. his overfowing soul flowed over.
 "Mu4el," he exclaimed. waking the night owl from it's slumbers, 'I cannot understand what you see In me to love!"
 The night owl booted in disgust, and went to sleep again. Even Muriel, as her soft eyes dwelt upon the planet Venus. looked little disappointed. But she knew he was too earnest to be fishing for a compliment, and she pressed his hand as she dreamily re- piled:

PiepIant Easy to Grow.

Pieplant is easily produced in a commercial way, yields immensely. and is easily gathered and put into shape for the market. It can be shipped almost any distance. Then, too, the demand for it on the market makes it one of the two best vege- tables for commercial use, Pieplant is usually set in rows four feet apart and two and one-half feet in the rows. Like asparagus it should be carefully tended and heavily manured It should be fertilized every winter.

Farm Help.

The scarcity of help is preventing the agricultural development of the country. and is especially against the extension of the dairy industry. There seems to be no remedy unless women and girls of the cities and towns will take to farm and field work, at least through the summer The few who are doing 1t confess to making good money easily and with the gain in health and strength, and without loss of independence. position or dignity if 1t were not for the help outside of our own women and children. one trucker says. most of us would have to abandon the business.

hay, silage, some corn fodder, some corn and chopped food occasionally. Oats are very good, but very expen- siye food. In spring he may be turned out on pasture during the day and fed some hay at night and morning, because grass at this time is very washy. As the grass gets older leave on pasture, but be sure to have plenty of shade and water. A mule should not be broken until he is three years old, although many are broken before they are near that age.
 With the proper handling he will be found to be easier to manage than horse colts. l always work them be- side good steady horse. Do not work mules together until thoroughly broken. or you may have some trou- ble. After this time he may be found to do more and better work than horse colt at the same age. that Is you can work him harder When at this time you may say that mule is easier raised and at less cost than horse colts, in that they do not require as much care and less food to keep them in good condition. Mule colts will bring more money than an aver age horse colt. even though he may be blemished in some way. He will sell when a blemished horse colt would not sell.

facile and adaptable than the feminine.
And always, we get down to the
work of it. Certainly, If it is a choice

its chance of proper nutrition for body

PRIOR LIEN EVEN If PROPERTY
HAS BEEN MOVED FROM ONE
COUNTY TO ANOTHER.

In the district court OF Bottineau

to have his mortgage filed in the other
county in the state, even though the
property should be moved.
The case involved about $4,000 worth

To avoid any possible labor troubles,
which have been prognosticated dur
ing the coming winter. the federation
took up the matter Of urging the peo-
pie of the state and the coal dealers
especially to lay in their fuel supplies
early so that any inconvenience and
suffering from want of fuel at the
proper time caused by strikes or la
Dor disputes, may be avoided.
The federation feels that 1t is on a
good working basis and Secretary
Sherman of Minot said this morning
that 1t was hoped that much would be
accomplished during the coming year.
He felt success was already in the
air and that little effort on the part
of the commercial clubs of the state
would make this organization one of
the most important and influential in
the whole state.
