tigation. six business men OF Chicago
have been placed under arrest In connec-

past twelve months.

the ring. was arrested last week in Van

confession duplicating all six OF the
alleged ''firebuss The authorities saw
that fully 10 per cent OF the fires occur

But to return to my story:
This agency wanted to
start a newspaper campaign
in Chicago. 1t could afford
to use only four newspapers
The representatives of
these four newspapers were
summoned to consult with
the agency about the cam
paign.
TIL e REPRESENTA-
TIVE OF EACH NEWS
PAPER ASSURED THE
AGENCY THAT HIS PA
PER WAS THE REAL
THING THAT HIS PA
PER WAS ALL THAT
THE ADVERTISER NEED
USE.
That was NOT what the
Agency was after; what it
wanted more particularly
were FACTS about the Chi
cago situation. 1t expected
each representative to fur
nish those facts-to tell the
truth about the value of
ALL newspapers as we'll as
his own.
Instead Of that, each rep
resentative said it would be
foolish to use the other
three newspapers.
"Now," said the agency
man to me, "what do you
think of such q condition ?
Is it not absurd? Why don t
men keep informed about
all the newspapers i'll their
respective communities and
be big and broad minded
enough to give a straightfor-
ward statement about each
one? Such methods would
win for them the RESPECT,
the CONFIDENCE and the
BUSINESS Of most adver-
tisers, y"
This agency has struck
the keynote as to why news
papers do not make greater
progress in developing gen
cral advertising.

cow STALL is COMFORTABLE
Distinguishing Feature OF 5;;i~e;
Type Is Movable Manager and
Rack-Chain Across Rear.

(By GEORGE P. CIRCUIT, Minnesota Uni
versity Farm)
The "Bidwell'' style of stall affords
the greatest degree Of comfort to the
COW. The distinguishing features OF
this stall are the movable manger and
rack, whereby the length of the stand
ing-room fore and aft may be varied
to suit the individual COW, and the
fastening for the COW, which consists
of a rope or chain across the rear
end of the stall, to keep the COW from
backing out. The stall should be three
feet wide on centers The entire stall,
from A to (see -cut), is seven feet in
length. The gates (Which should all
swing one way), are about four feet
long. The rear posts. If used, should
slant as shown in the cut, to allow the
mixer a little more room. In some
stables these rear posts have been
done away with entirely, the gates
simply being chained or roped to-
gether. As usually built, the front
rack or panel is made of a 2x4 frame
work, with ZIG rods; and this frame
work is fastened solidly in the man
ger; but the manger and framework
are not attached to the sides of the
stall, but left loose, So as to be adj
justed to the length of the COW. In
some cases, however, the rack is

PlTIFUL- SIGHT WITH ECZEMA

"a few days after birth we noticed
an int1amed spot on our baby's hip
which soon began spreading until
baby was completely covered even in
his eyes, ears and scalp. For eight
weeks he was bandaged from head to
foot. He could not have a stitch of
clothing on. Our regular physician
pronounced it chronic eczema. He is
a very able physician and ranks with
the best in this locality, nevertheless,
the disease began spreading until
baby was completely covered. He
was losing flesh SO rapidly that we be-
came alarmed and decided to try Cuti-
cura Soap and Ointment.
mot until / commenced using Cuti-
cura Soap and Ointment could we tell
what he looked like, as we dared not
wash him, and had been putting one
application after another on him On
removing the scale from his head the
bald, but since we have been using
Cuticura Soap and Ointment he has
as much hair as ever Four weeks
after we began to use the Cuticura
Soap and Ointment he was entirely
cured. l don't believe anyone could
have eczema worse than our baby.
Before We used the Cuticura Rem
edies we could hardly look at him, he
was such a pitiful sight. He would
fuss until l would treat him, they
semed to relieve him so much. Cuti

ATTENTION TO BULLS FEET
Where Animal Is Rather Closely Con.
fined His Feet Will Need Con.
siderable Trimming.

The feet of a bull demand more or
less attention, especially if he is rath-
er closely confined and getting a lib
eral supply of grain. The feet should
be trimmed so that the animal always
has the proper use of the same. Some
bulls are as easily handled as gen
tie horse, and their feet can be
trimmed without the slightest diff
Guilty. However, this is rather the ex-
ception than the rule. The most sat
isfactory way is to put the animal in
stocks and raise it off it's feet. Then,
by strapping the foot to be trimmed,
solid to a beam, SO that the sole will
be facing upward, the operation can
be executed with pincers and chisel
in few minutes. Care should be
taken to avoid cutting too deep or
into the sensitive part of the foot, as
this would be very likely to cause
bleeding and lameness
