LOST FAITH IN WHITE MAN
Eskimo Tested Efficacy of Telephone
Scheme, and Realized He Had
Been Deceived.

An interesting story is told regard
Ing the efforts of an Eskimo to con-
struct telephone line. The Eskimo
cnlne into possession of piece o.
wire of considerable length and never
having seen wire before he asked Pro-
lessor Mcmillan of the Peary north
pole expedition what it was and what
1t was for. He was told that the
white man strung it on poles stuck in
the ground and voice talking to an
instrument at one end could be heard
at the other end. After some search
the next morning the Eskimo was
found to be engaged in telephone con-
struction work of his own. He stuck
some sticks in the ground and hung
his wire on them. He held one end Of
the wire to his mouth and talked to
1t at the top of his voice. Then he
ran as fast as he could to the other
end and held the wire to his ear with
the expectation of hearing his own
words repeated.
When he failed to hear any sounds
the expression on his face revealed
his opinion of his white friend.

MILK cow THREE TIMES A DAY
Il Pays, According to Results Secured
by Dairymen and Owners of
Large Herds.

Does it pay to milk COW three
dimes a day? Dairymen and owners
of large herds say So. They can, and
do, produce the proofs, too, that milk
ing their cows this often is very
profitable practice.
To obtain the best results from your
COW, or COWS, health and comfort
must necessarily be considered care
fully. The modern farmer is making
rapid Progress in regard to the SAM
tary conditions of his barns and dairy
stables, and Learning also many inn
proved methods of feeding. Yet a
surprisingly large number of farmers
do not see that the cow with heavy,
full udder, unrelieved, is laboring
against big odds.
The two indisputable benefits de-
rived from milking three times every
day are: A steady increase in the
amount of milk produced, and high
er percentage of butter fat in the milk.
The first is especially valuable to the
persons who feed skim-milk to the
young stock.

clearly that .infrequent milking tends

MIXED frequently 1t caused these
glands to be enlivened and stimulated,
with the result that more and better
milk was drawn from the cows, and
the milking period was heightened in
nearly every instance.
The feed question is solved, too.

JERSEY cow is BEAUTIFUL
Its GentIeness and Pretty FaWn Color
Takes Strong Hold on Sentiment
of Farmers.

Possibly no class of cattle appeals
more strongly to the majority of peo-
pie than the Jersey. It's gentleness
and pretty fawn color, and the deer
like appearance of the young calves,
takes strong hold on the sentiment
of people, farmers as well as others.
The Jersey is easily kept and while
her flow of milk Is not as large as that
of some other breeds, it makes up in
richness and quality. The conforma-
ton of the Jersey is lean and muscu-
lar, and represents the two dairy
types. Well bred Jerseys have thin
skin, elastic and fine to touch, and
covered with a thick coat of soft hair.
It's back should be strong, straight
and not sag; and the ribs, as in all
dairy cows, should be well sprung,

Acc Of oysters.

Oysters grow only during the sum-
mer and especially during the long,
warm summers at that, and are scarce
ly big enough for the mouth before
the third year. 1t is easy after look
ing over bunch of shells to tell how
old an oyster is. A summer hump and
the winter sink come across the shell
every year, but after the seventh or
tenth year full growth comes; then, by
looking at the sinks between the
humps it is hard to tell anything
more about Miss Oysters age. Oysters
live to be 20 years old.

KING PLAN OF VENTILATION
Arrangement by Which Foul Air Of
Barn Is Removed by Shaft-lIlus-
tration Shows FIues.

The King system of ventilation is
an arrangement by which the foul air
of the barn is removed by a shaft
called a ventilator. 1t is built upon
the same principles as a chimney to a
fireplace. The fresh air is admitted
to the barn by ducts made in the wall
that open on the outside near the base
of the wall and on the inside near the
ceiling, says Hoard's Dairyman. This
construction prevents the warm air
at the ceiling from passing down and
out and permits the cold air to be
tempered more or less before it reach
es the animals. The ventilating fue
takes the coolest and foulest air from
