Tempests Send Their Own
Warning Ahead

Storm centers move usually tn an
esterly or northeasterly direction.
Hence the prediction of storms on the
Atlantic coast Is possible, since most
of them come from the Mississippi
valley. Some come up the coast from
the Caribbean sea. but even In this
case we have no warning.
But western Europe is less fortu-
nate. Its tempests come from the At
lantic. and with little warning. Euro
pean weather men have made as much
as possible a study of the paths of
American storms across the Atlantic

dieting the tine of their arrival the
same has b ! done with storms COM

But 1t often happens that storms vary

about three months. BY the end Of

tors treatment, and commenced the
use of Cuticura Soap and Ointment,
and in a few days noticed a marked
change. The eruption on his cheeks
was almost healed, and his shoulders,
arms and breast were decidedly bet
ter. When he was about seven months
old, all trace of the eczema was gone.
During his teething period his
head and face were broken out in
bois which / cured with Cuticura

VENICE A CITY OF DREAMS
Many Charms for the Tourist In This

To the wanderer in Italy. Venice

at sunset, or better still by moonlight.
and you will fancy yourself trans
planted to some city of dreams. With
daylight this feeling may wear off to
some extent. although there is never
at any time. as much hustle and stir
in Venice as in other towns. Morn
ing, noon or night, Venice has fas-
cination all her own. This is partly
due to the fact that she Is a city built
on the water
To explore Venice and to become in
timately acquainted with her, a gon-
dola Is not a necessity, rather 1t Is
luxury for sunset evenings and
moonlight nights. 1t Is a delightful ex-
perience, and not difficult one, to
lind ones way about Venice on foot:
quaint. old world corners are discover
ed, bits of ancient architecture, carved
doorways and little bridges, with a
feast of color here, there and every
where. Apart from all the beauty OF
scenery, there is the enthralling inter
est evoked by her history and tradi-
tions.

OF Venice, to be superseded later on

There are few people outside the

really know what the genuine article
tastes like. The superior flavor thus
spoken of is probably due In a de-

The club is the possessor of an cleo

The only dues are those required for
the upkeep of these labor savers, and
this amount has been estimated to be

H@R0TES~sh S

A hog simply will not be responsible
for poor fences.
There is no better place to raise
pigs than in good pasture.
Even the hogs like a variety of feed
and will do better If they can get it.
There is no animal that responds so
quickly to good feed and treatment
as the pig.
How much per bushel can be made
from wheat by feeding to hogs? In
what way should it be fed?
Almost every wrong act of the horse
is caused by fear, excitement or mis-
management, said a great horseman
The individuality of each horse
should be studied, and the feeds sup
piled to meet individual requirements.
Feed roughage to the stock before
giving them grain, as 1t invigorates
and excites the digestive apparatus to
action.
The pure-bred sire and a dam of
the same type of as good blood as it
is possible to get will usually bring
| desirable colt
to use on the young colts navel when
| he arrives. A half minute at this time
may save the colt later.
In eight years out of ten the hog
feeder will make money, in one year
| he will lose and in one break even.
| This is the year of the even break.
Twenty acres of corn put into a silo
is said to be worth more than 80
acres put in the crib. This is quite
an item, especially when feed is so
| high.
Begin to break the colt early If you
would have an easy time with the

SHOULD NOT NEGLECT COLT
If Youngster Is Properly Handled
From Beginning 1t Will Not Give
Much Trouble.

The farmer owning 40 acres or
more of land, who does not raise at
least one colt every year is not doing
his best. The mare will do most kinds
Of farm work and raise her colt with
out much loss of time. If the colt is
properly handled from the beginning
it will not give much trouble. Never
allow it to run after its mother when
she is working.
This worries and frets the mare,
and it wears out the colt. Keep it at
the barn, loose in a box stall, and
tempt it with little clover hay and
oats. Early colts will be weaned pref
soon now. If they have been
brought up to this point right, wean-
ing does not mean much. Feed more
frequently with sweet clover hay. oats
and corn, and the colt will soon be
