1t was five years ago, when the
Annie Smith was bound for the east
coast of Africa, that Steve jackson
gave up the ghost.
The night they committed Steve's
body to the deep, with only a dead
weight of iron to keep him company.
the seaman's ghost appeared to the
mate. A XII ..
Moore was at the wheel, cycling the
fiuttering of the topgallant sail, as
the wind showed signs OF shifting,
when he heard Steve's voice say:
Good evening, mate" He looked in
the direction whence the voice came
and there, sitting on the starboard
rail, was Steve's ghost, dressed just
as Steve was dressed when he signed
on the grim ship Death. The mate
Answered him. but though the ghost
remained there, he did not utter an
other word until after an hour, when
he said, "All's well" and disappeared.
Moore soon became used to Steve's
ghost, which appeared morning and
night, and greeted him, and which
said, "All's WELL" whenever storm
arose.

ghostly visitor became too much for
Moore, and he left the Annie Smith.
A year ago, however, ). he shipped
again in the barkent.ne, and there was
a great little reunion on the first day
that the mate took the wheel.
Morning, mate said the ghost.
Hello Steve" quoth Moore as was
his wont.
We'll, Use here and youse bin away
pow'ful long time," grinned the
ghost.
Glad to see you again, Steve"
went on Moore. "And say, Steve, just
go for'ard to the jib halliards and
hoist that jib."
Sure enough, Steve's ghost hoisted
the jib, and coming back, touched his
hat, cried "All's WELL" and vanished.

SELECTING THE DAIRY BULL

great many farmers who buy a
registered dairy bull make the seri-
Gus mistake of trying to buy a cheap
pure-breed scrub rather than strong
foundation animal on which TO build
the future herd. The only thing they
look for is the fact that the bull is
registered and is offered at a low
price. But If ever man needs a
first-class animal It is when he is
starting Most men start out with
the idea that they can buy such an
animal for $50 to 800 But if one
was offered them for 5000 that had
come through a long, careful line of
wise breeding they would refuse TO
consider it Right here is where they
make their mistake. When men start
TO look for bull price Is the last
thing to think of. So many farmers
look at this important subject wrong
end foremost. Let them really inves
tigate the breeding policies of differ
ent men and they will see what a seri-
Gus difference there is in the money

SKIM MILK GIVEN TO CALVES
Best Way to Make Use of By.Product,
But Not Unless Done in Right
VEGETABLES Good Veal.

About the most satisfactory way to
use skinned milk is to feed 1t to
calves, but not unless it is done in
the right way. Sour, cold milk in
dirty pals will not make profitable
growth and is out of the question Tor
veal calves. SKINNED milk will max"
first class veal and the calves WIZ
grow nearly as fast, make as heaVN
weight and sell for the same price
per pound as if fed on whole milk.
But the milk must be fresh from the
separator and pals must be washed
every day The calf must be fed reg
ularly and three times per day is
better than twice per day, as calt's
stomach is small, much smaller in
proportion to his size than that OF
COW. Even the veal calf should be
encouraged to take all the grain that
he will. Cheap -four added TO the
milk is quite important in making
growth The calf will consume more
skinned milk than he would OF the
whole milk, but the extra cost is not
very important, since skinned milk
is not reckoned very high in the mar
ket. Raising veal calves by skinned
milk requires some care and intelli-
gence. One feed of milk in the wrong
condition will check the calfs growth
and make the buyer find fault or re-
fuse TO pay the whole milk calf price.
Raising calves for growth is anoth-
er matter requiring somewhat less
scrupulous care Most of the trouble
usually comes from feeding them in
old dirty pals with stale soured milk
in the corners full of germs which
produce scours and intestinal tTou-
bles. Btu they will grow well on
skinned milk fed with reasonable
care. At the Wisconsin station it was
concluded that to raise calf on whole
milk is four times as expensive as
to raise il on skinned milk although
the whole milk calves will grow lit
tie faster. but it costs very much more
per pound to get the growth The
skinned milk calves consume about
twice as much grain as the others but
two pounds of grain would take the
place Of one pound of butter fat in
the whole milk OF course, dairy
man cannot afford 70 feed cream TO
his calves when grain will answer
the purpose
