the cure. The milk Is strained at
night and the next morning the cream
Is ropy and must be thrown away. 1t
is not always easy to trace the cause
OF ropy milk to its source. Without
going into any lengthy explanation, 1t
may be said that ropy or Shiny milk
is caused by certain bacteria. One type
may be found in dirty, stagnant water.
If the COWS wade in this water their
TANKS and udders become the resting

ed, as 1t were, and also the utensils
that come in contact with the milk
The germs lodge in the crevices of the
utensils and readily propagate in the
warm milk. The cure lies In absolute
cleanliness. All utensils should be
thoroughly scalded. Lime is an ex-
cellent destroyer of all germ life. The
utensils may be given coating Of the
slaked lime, then washed in boiling
water. 1t may be necessary to give

of the old man and rang up 10 cents
out of the half dollar which was given
him. The old man, without looking ii

lips and TOOK g. long draught. Then
he quickly set the stein down, sput-
tered a moment and then exploded
between his coughs.

"Sir, I am a teetotaler. I wouldn't

And the old man marched out indig-

claimed the clerk to. man at the

OBJECT TO TIE CHICKENS
Residents of Summer Place AlIese
That Their Early Morning Rest
is Disturbed

The dwellars in the residential Sec
tion of Observation-Disclosures have
become much excited over discussions
of the question. Is 1t proper and right
to maintain a poultry farm on a vii
lage plot? Since the days have length
ened and the sun rises early and the
windows are kept open wide all
night, it Is maintained by those on
the negative side Of the discussion,
restful sleep is out of the question
after o'clock IN the morning. A petit
tion setting forth all the arguments
from the moral, economic and SOCIAL
points of view against chicken raising
inside of village limits has been cE-
.culated, and has the names Of all who
do not own chickens. One OF the sign
ers said the whole trouble was
brought on the community by the tns-
portation Of bantam rooster. What
this fellow lacks in size he makes up
in volume and shrillness of voice and
in the zeal with which he INDUCES his
talent for Growing in the early hours
of the day. He is keyed too high,
and bis owner should feed him chalk
every night The petition describes
in detail the annoyance Of being
reused out Of q sound sleep by a
loud cock-adoodle-doo and the horror
of lying awake to listen for the next
summons from the other roosters.
One particularly loud-voiced Leghorn
was found dead beside his coop a few
days ago. It is said on of the neigh
bors. at the risk of being shot, broke
the ROSTERS neck. 1t took only a
few days for the owner to get an
other lusty-lunged bird, and now there
is some feeling!

Bitterness In an Epitaph.

Mason and Dixon's line is fast be-
coming a memory, but here and there
are to be found evidences Of the once
bitter hatred which prevailed in the
days of the Civil war.
George w. Kerdolff, who before en-
tering the insurance business spent
much time in the south, tells this
story Of an epitaph rudely carved on a
block of sandstone yet to be seen in
Louisiana parish.
When the slogan Of the south was
"On to Washington" and the youth of
the Confederacy had shouldered their
muskets for the front, leaving only
the older folks and women and chill
dren at home, a band Of Union SOL
diers came into Louisiana Sighting
the enemy, the aged men, assisted by
the women, gathered together their
scant supply Of firearms and planned
resistance. AS the Federal forces
came up narrow lane, the southern
ers opened fire with such deadly effect
that the invaders retrcated, leaving
one Of their number dead upon the
field Of battle.
The victors buried the fallen foe,
and over his grave, to this day, one
may read the roughly chiseled cpl
taph: "The Yankee bands with bloody
hands came southwark to divide our
lands. This lonely and deserted spot
is all this - old Yankee got"-Kan-
sas City Journal.

this opening is plugged with a re-
movable pin, but when the cream Is

and the cream allowed to flow through
the hole. To do this, however, air
must be admitted to the top of the
buttle, so the plug is made with a
sharp point which can be jabbed
through the pasteboard seal that is IN
the top. 1t is important to keep each
plug with its particular bottle, for once
the plug is lost the bottle is Of no use

NOT PAINT.

The worst mistake in painting IS
not putting-off. That costs about
10 per cent; you keep your money
a year and pay 10 per cent for 1t.
Paint would have to come down
25 per cent TO make To- per cent on
the job, for wages do not go down.
The worst mistake is cheap
paint. 1t costs from 50 per cent to
100, first cost, and another in wear.

times worse.
