EVERY FARMER
CAN USE PAINT
Adds TO Appearance of Place and
TO the durability of Any
Kind of Farm
Building.

Any man can do an average Job of
painting, and can thereby not only i'm
prove the appearance of his place, but
can add greatly to the durability of
the buildings.
The average farmer, If there is such
a thing, seems to think that paint is
used solely for ornament, and he is of
all men most keenly practical, he
eschews what he regards as an I'M
profitable luxury. 1t Is, perhaps, the
rule rather than the exception in some
sections to see houses and agricul-
tural implements sadly in need of re-
paint.
OF course paint does improve the
appearance of property, but it is far
more useful as a protector rather than
an ornament. The expenditure of a
small amount of money and time in
painting a valuable piece of farm ma
chinery or a building will add great
ly to the length of its life. Another

the bulletin gives several very valu.
able recipes for making both of those
excellent coatings for both out and in
side Of buildings.
The secretary in addition to urg-
ing the proper use of paints for both
useful and ornamental purposes, for he
does not think anything too good or
attractive for the farm homes, EN-
phasized several precautions: do not
use any paint containing compounds
Of lead about stables or outbuildings
where the fumes from decaying or
ganic matter occur, since these gases
are likely to darken the lead paints.
Do not use with lead compounds any
pigment which may liberate COM
pounds of sulphur For example, ultra
marine blue which contains sulphur in
form in which 1t may be set free
is a beautiful blue and may be used
with zinc white, but should not be
used with white lead or any other lead
pigments. Prussian blue, on the con-
trary, does not contain sulphur and
may be used with lead pigments.
Remember that turpentine and
benzine are very inflammable and es-
pecial precautions should be taken not
to bring paint containing these sub
stances near any light or open fire.
MANY pigments are poisonous, and
the workman should be particularly
careful to remove all paint stains from
the skin, and not under any circum-
stances allow any Of 1t to get into his
mouth. A man should not eat in the
same clothes in which he has been
painting, and before eating should not
only change his clothes but wash all
paint stains from his skin. 1t is not
advisable to use turpentine or benzine
in removing paint stains from the
hands, but by oiling thoroughly with
linseed oil, or. in fact, with any fatty
oil, and then thoroughly washing with
soap, the paint may be removed, pro
vided it has not been allowed to dry
too thoroughly on the hands"

IN LESS STRENUOUS TIMES
Explanation of the Difference Be-
tween Domestic Standards Now
and Those of Long Ago.

In the Woman's Home Companion
there is an interesting presentation OF
the difference that exists between the
domestic standard of young married
women of today and those of the past
generation. How did the women of
the middle class of a generation or
two ago manage when they could not
keep help? Following is the answer
quoted from a Companion editorial:
'They lived according to their
means; they did not set up impossible
standards, and they knew much less
about the science of bringing up chill
dren, They had no special style TO
keep up; gave the children a weekly
BATH kept the table set between
meals; did not serve their meals in
courses, but put all the food on the
table at once; confined their social
affairs to evening calls and parties,
and church suppers. at which they
wore the same black silk dress for at
least two seasons in short every
woman did only what she could, and
her friends made 1t easier for her by
doing likewise"

Diagram showing the relative
amounts of dieestbIe protein and car
bohydrates In different kinds of hay.
The section incIosed'in light lines rep
resent the carbohydrates; those in
closed in heavy lines, the proteinH
fed, the body suffers, because it is
absolutely necessary to keep the body
in good condition. Thousands of
horses are fec all they can eat, yet
are poorly nourished because the food
contains little except fuel substances.
The flesh forming substances are
used to replace the waste that goes on
in all living tissues. Energy produc-
ing substances are used to furnish the
energy required for the nervous and
muscular activities Of the body, and
when fed in excess they may to GER
tain extent be stored up in the form
of fat for use later, when needed for
either energy or heat.
One of the most important sub
stances in any foodstuff is protein. All
nutritive substances which contain
nitrogen are classed under the general
term of protein. Protein is composed
of nitrogen, carbon, hydrogen, oxygen,
sulphurs, and phosphorus.

Where the Eruit Grows.

Michael Casey, politician in San
Francisco, who has been in Office and
on the city payroll for many years,
was addressing a meeting of his fell
low-citizens. 1t was a labor meeting.
You men must know" spouted
Casey, that you are the great body
polite in this city. You are the roots
and trunks of our great municipal
tree, while we who represent you in
Office are merely the branches on that
magnificent tree"
True for you, Mike" piped man
in the back of the hall, but did we
ever notice all the fruit grows on the
branches ?'-Saturday Evening Post.

PROTEIN IS MOST IMPORTANT
SUBSTANCE In ANY FOODSTUFF
Composed of Nitrogen Carbon. Hydrogen, Oxygen Sulphur
and Phosphorus-It Makes Up Muscles, Tendons
L4Saments Connecting Tissues, and
Almost Everything but Fat.

Protein Is the substance which
builds up the body. The muscles, ten
dons, ligaments, connective tissues,
skin, hair, hoofs, part of the bone, and
in fact every part of the body but fat
are made up of protein, together with
mineral matter and water.
The next important class of sub
stances is the carbohydrates, which
contain carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen,
but no nitrogen, sulphurs, or phos-
phorus; they include starch, sugars,
etc. These are used for practically
the same purpose for which coal or
wood is used in the steam engine,
namely, to furnish energy and heat.
The third important constituent Of
hay is its oils. Small quantities Of
oil are present in all kinds Of hay.
These oils serve the same purpose as
the carbohydrates. A pound of these,
however, will furnish two and one
fourth times as much energy or heat
as the same quantity of carbohydrates.
1t can readily be seen, when the chem
ical analysis of hay is considered, why
the price of the different grades or
kinds of hay should depend, first,
upon the amount of digestible nutri-
ents contained, and, second, upon the
purpose for which the hay is fed. If
the concentrated feed. e., the grain
in the ration-lacks protein, then the
hay that is high in this substance is
more valuable than one which con-
tains little but carbohydrates, and vice
versa. There is quite range in the
amount of the different classes Of
nutrients in the various kinds Of hay.
On an average, in 100 pounds Of al
falfa hay the digestible protein
amounts to 1888 pounds; in cowpea
hay, 1919 pounds; in alsike clover
hay, 8.15 pounds; in red clover hay,
1888 pounds; in redtop hay, 4.80
pounds; and in timothy hay, 2.S9
pounds.
In 100 pounds of redtop hay the
digestible carbohydrates amount to AZ
pounds; in timothy hay, 43.72 pounds;
in alsike clover hay, 41.70 pounds;
in alfalfa hay, 1888 pounds; in cow
pea hay, 3S.4O pounds; in red clover
hay, 36.15 pounds.
When fed for protein, timothy hay
ranks last, but when fed for carbo-
hydrates it stands next to redtop,
which heads the list. If the total
nutrients are considered there are a
number of different kinds of hay which
are equal, if not superior, to timothy
hay for feeding purposes.

useful object accomplished by painting
is the improved sanitary conditions Of
buildings and outhouses. The cost Of
such work is small, the necessary
equipment not expensive, and with
proper care will last a long time.
In order to supply information which
will enable the farmer to purchase the
paint economically and apply 1t in
telligently and to the best advantage,
Secretary Wilson caused experts in the
bureau of chemistry to investigate
the subject and prepare Farmers Bulle-
tin No. 474 calling attention to the
economic importance of painting farm
buildings and equipment and giving de-
tails as to the cost, purchase, and care
of brushes, cost of the ingredients
needed, how to mix and apply them.

Good Liberal Education.

One of the best investments that
any farmer can make, with view to
helping his boys and girls in the fu-
ture, is in giving those boys and girls
good liberal education, that will
enable them to compete with others
and hold their own in the future. One
thousand dollars and good educa-
ton equip a young man much better
for his struggles in life than will two
thousand dollars and no education.

Walking for Nerves.

The nerves suffer from want of pure
oxygen. They run like network all
through the skin and when they are
overweight the skin is apt to be dry
and colorless. Walking is an excellent
tonic for the nerves. 1t gives them
strength to control themselves.
If one has means of leisure, there
are plenty of other more enjoyable ex-
ercises. But few forms are SO bene-
fetal as the regular daily jaunt of four
or five miles for obtaining a good com
plexion.

(By H. B. M'cLURE.)

The nutritive substances in hay or
feed may be divided into two classes
flesh forming and fuel or energy pro-
ducing substances. When the proper
amount of these two classes of sub
stances is fed the ration is said to
be balanced. If an unbalanced ration
is fed, as one containing more fuel or
energy producing substances than are
needed and less flesh-forming mate
rial, the ration is partially wasted, and
such unwise feeding will not bring as
good results as the feeding of the same
amount of a balanced ration. Each
class of substances has different Of
fees to perform in the body. If
not enough flesh forming substance is
