pletion and the building will be completed
and ready for occupancy early in the fall
The structure is located ct the corner of
I'm the Park The land, which cost 81. D.

At the time Of the purchase Of the
ground permanent library committee
was appointed. composed Of H. F. TAFT,
chairman Rev. T. Z. Clarke. w. A. Col

For several years prio- to that time a
small library, known as the TakOma Club

maker was president, was popular among

drew Carnegie donated $30.0u0 for the
erection of a branch library in Takema
Park. for which congressional action was
necessary before IL could be accepted.
After many defeats the bill was finally
passed and the authorization granted. No

the work commenc ed on the new struc-
ture
Early in the spring Of last year Con-
gress authorised the acceptance of not

and a number of residences have been
erected during the past year or two,
while other new houses are under con-
struction or in contemplation.
The word "Takoma" is said to be of
Indian origin, signifying "exalted-a
high place." and in this connection the
enthusiastic resident of Takoma de-
clares the word has been most appro-
priately applied. The altitude of
Takoma Park varies. according to To-
cality, from three to four hundred feet
above that of Washington. Takoma
water, the virtue or which is its purity,
became famous many years ago. and 1t
still maintains its reputation.

the operating expense in both instances
are approximately the same. It costs
practically as much to keep No. 2 as
No. and requires four times as much
labor to produce the same profit.
The incredible conditions exist as
before stated that one third of the
dairy cows in this country are kept at
au actnsl loss. They do not even pay
operating expenses. How long can the
farmer afford TO spend $25 feeding and
caring for an animal and get only $40
in return. Many farmers are getting
excellent returns from their dairy, but
the profit from their better cows has to
bear the waste from the robber or star
boarder.
Why not remedy these conditions?
Idaho is exceptionally well adapted for
dairying. There is an abundance Of
COOL water; q healthy climate; cattle
are free from contagious diseases; alfal-
fl, the premier dairy feed 10 easily
grown; root crops yield well, and bar
ley and oats furnish the concentrated
carbohydrate rations. With these con-
ditions, Idaho can produce milk and
butter cheaper than the east, ana yet
Minnesota, Iowa, Kansas and the mid
die western states ship thousands Of
pounds Of butter into Idaho and the
northwestern states and sell at a profit
to themselves.
One reason for this lie the fact that in
the middle west, they keep q better
grade of cows. They are continually
wedding out the poorer animals and
only those are kept that have proved
themselves to be economical producers
Every dairyman in the. state, ne
matter If he Is only keeping Ave cows
should keep recrod of each COW in his
herd. In almost every instance where
records are being systematically KEEP

The ROBBER cow.

The greatest source of loss in the
dairy industry is the feeding OF I'M
profitable cows. Estimates show that
one-third of the cows used for dairying
in the United States are kept at az
actual loss.
The dairy COW is q machine for the
express purpose of manufacturing milk
and manufacturing IL as a profit, and
the instant she fails to make you this
profit is the time to get rid Of her. The
dairyman cannot afford to keep COW
at the expense Of the rest of the herd.
The production of COW above q
certain standard constitutes the profit.
The fact that COW gives 1900 pounds
of milk year is no indication that she
il four ffths as good as 5000 pound
COW, or tive thirds as good as the one
that produces 5000 pounds or one-halt
as profitable as the 5000 pound prodnc-
err. It requires certain amount OF
feed and care for q cow known as oper-

take 1000 pounds of milk year to pay
for these operating expenses and the
COW that yields only 1000 pounds Of
milk is being kept at no profit. Cow
No. 2 produces ZOO pounds of milk a
year, then LOCO pounds is produced al
profit. Cow No. 3, 1900 pounds ii

results astonishing to the owner have
been obtained. A pair of scales and a
Babcock tester are absolutely essential
for successful dairying. Keep tie
weight of the milk at each milking and
make fat test of each cow once a
month. That is the only way the farm
or CAD accurately gauge his COW. Ten
minutes day will cover all the time
necessary in making these records and
the results obtained cannot be over-esti-
mated.
Land values in Idaho are too high for
slack methods. The robber COW has &c
place ON your farm. Weed out your
herd. You may find your profits to be
as great with five cows as You formerly
had with eight or ten and your labor
bill is cut in half.

man, a black cigar which he has had
in his possession since July 4, 1863.
Hartman tasted the ancient brand
and decided it was all right. Hart
mans verdict satisfied Martin that
he had made a good bargain when
the cigar, together with another like
it and SIS in cash came into his
possession in return for horse. The
deal was made with a confederate
soldier on the retreat from Gettys-

gar, while she stared at the adver-
tisements with unseeing eyes and
grieved over her lost ideal.
Presently Hapgood finished his
cigar and entered the car, taking a
seat beside the girl. He spoke TO
her sharply and imperiously, but she
did not answer and with a growing
irritation he spoke again. He did
not bride his tongue, and presently
the blue eyes overhowed and two
tears rolled down her cheeks.
Over in the opposite corner a
burly workman rose slowly and sig
nailed the conductor to stop. The
ear came to a halt and the conductor
threw the doors open with an in
FUNSTON to step lively.
The Irishman took firm grip on
Hapgood's collar. "These dom dudes

pathetically, as he lifted Hspgood
from the seat with mighty jerk.

Hapgood. '1.et go of me, YOU

The man looked at Bess inquir-
ingly. She half rose in her seat,
and then shook her head. The Irish
man tishtened his grip and jerked
Hapgood on the car platform.
Scarcely knowing whether to
laugh or cry, Bess rode on 10 her
destination, but once in her own
room she solved the problem by
electing to cry. She was really fond
of Brace, and she could not decide
whether she was more sorry for the
broken engagement or her action in

HAPCOOD'S
LESSON
BY DON SEYM UR

Bessie sat staring at the adver-
tisements let into the panels above
the car windows with eyes that we're
filled with tears. The quarrel had
come, just as everyone said it would.
There were many things about
Brace Hapgood that were very win
ming, but from the cradle he had
been the pampered child of an in
dulgent mother, and had come to
regard the whole world as being Gre
ated for his especial comfort.
In the early days of the engage
ment he had deferred to Bess, but
once the solitaire argued authority
he had gradually commenced the
process Of training that was to fit
her for the position of his wife.
Meek, loving little Bess stood it
as long as she could, but this after
noon. coming from the Templeton's
tea, he had scolded her all the way
down the street. AS they we're wait
ing for the car, she slipped off her
ring.
"Iou had better take this" she
said, in a choked little voice. 81
don't think that II want to marry
you, Brace. | don't want to be
scolded for every little fault"
Pm not scolding," he said, cross
ly, as he slipped the ring into his
pocket. Pm simply trying to show
you the right way. There must be
