If You Own Cows

1t will not only be interesting but it
will be profitable for you to read that
little national dairy magazine, Kim
balls Dairy Farmer. 1t is published
semi-monthly at Waterloo, Iowa, the
hub Of the great dairy region of the
central west. 1t is ably edited, well
printed on good book paper and hand
somely illustrated by actual photo
graphs taken exclusively for it. Its
purpose is educational and to the man
who would make his cows yield larger
profits, this little magazine is indis-
pensable. Regardless of how many
other papers the farmer may take, this
one is worth many times its price to
him. The subscription price is only
80 cents year, and the paper will
positively be discontinued at expira
ton. Send for sample copy.

Six years ago they signed an agree
ment. ana for four years he boarded
with her under this agreement. Mrs.
Alatala proved her industry by con-
Quoting bath house and selling milk
but she says that two years ago he be-
gan neglecting TO pay his board and
she ordered him out Of the house
since that time he has lived i'm the
basement Of one of his houses. Because
OF his peculiar habit of living, his fears
that his wife was going 10 poison him
ana because, by the statement OF his
daughter, he has been paying atten-
tons To other woman, Mrs. Alatala en-
tered a petition some time ago for an
examination as To his sanity. Mr.. Ala
tala is now 81 years of age and when
brought on the stand appeared rational
enough. Drs. Gallen and Jackson. who
had been appointed by the court TO eX-
anime Mr.. Alatala testified that they
believed him insane. Upon cross ex-
animation by Attorney LeGendre. they
admitted that he was capable of taking
care of his business but that because
of certain peculiar traits he was ut
