About tho Spare Room,

How often the best and sunniest
bedroom in a small house is set aside
for the raro visitor, while the chill
dren are cramped for space, or its
master, the bread-winner, has some
dark cupboard as his special sanctum.
If he attempts to write in the dining
room he must bundle away his papers
whenever the table is required for q
meal, and the wear and tear to his
temper-for every man finds 1t ag.
gravating to be "hustled"-often
makes him "gey Ill to live with" But
for the fetish" of that seldom used
spare room he would find home far
more home-like, and his wife would
reap sure reward for the sacrifice
Of the petty pride which makes her
think more Of what people will say"
than Of her husbands comfort.

FARMER HIS OWN BUTCHER
That Was the old-FashIoned Plan
and One Writer Considers IL
Good One.

A contributor says that every farm.
er ought to make his own meat. At
present, he says, many are buying
meat at from thirty-five to fifty per
cent. above the cost. The time has
returned, he claims, when 1t will not
only pay every farmer to raise his own
meat, but to cure 1t for family use and
Tor sale besides. He goes on:
Five million dollars a year spent
for meat that might have been raised
on the farm, and the money kept at
home, is Kansas record And it is a
mistake. It shows we are advancing
backward in some things.
"The good old butchering days of
our fathers ought to return, and with
them full knowledge of how to cure
the meat in various ways, so when
the fresh was gone, We should have
some of the finest, most appetite sat
isfying meats on hand the year round

ting in a killing and curing plant,
where all students may learn this use
full art from start to finish. What the
grain growing farmers of the west
have done, the milk making owners OF
eastern farms have followed, and to
day there are thousands of farmers
families that never see q home cured
ham or taste a rasher of bacon or q
slice of salt pork that is not got from
the meat dealer.
Having to spend money for meat,
many families lack a sufflciency Of
this sinew-making food. and who may
say that not few failures to make
good on the farm are due to lack of
the meat which stimulates" ?"-Farm

WOMEN ARE QUICK THINKERS
Man 10 Superior In Judgment and
VIII, Says British scl-
enlist,

New York.-The boast of New Yorh
women that they think more quickly,
have keener powers Of perception and
more delicate and alert senses than
the average New York man, has at
last been explained. 1t Is due to high
heels and the richer flow Of blood in
the arteries that supply a certain part
Of women's brains.
Therefore, when in an exchange OF
badinage or epithets, your wife gets
the better Of the argument, console
yourself with the thought that she 10

endure high hee to aid the effect.
Man, on the contrary, declares the
British scientist who has investigated
the subject, has a slower arterial cur
rent, and, consequently, greater origi
nality, calmer judgment and stronger

ings, and, In fact, to hear the com.

outside would think he should be ex-

question.
Now, I am an admirer of the beav.
or; he has not lazy hair on his body.
he works increasingly to shut I'D what
you have torn out; not only for his
part, but for the rancher that wants
the water. AS fast as you can open
tnelr dams every morning all the sum-
mer through, they will close them
again at night. But put In a good
dam and fiume box with gate, and your
trouble Is over in a great measure.
They will once in a while shut up
the box, but not often. Hang I'D a
piece Of bright tin on a spring hole so
the tin will swash in the water, and
you will not be bothered much at the
box. Now, II the ranchers left all
these cuts open, which they all do,
your water would all run off in the
winters thaws. So that Is where the
beaver comes to their relief. He shuts
them up himself. And then he gets
blamed for doing it.
"a beaver is awful shy when he
nrst sees man. He certainly puts out
for a hole in the bank. But you show
up evenings for about a week or ten
days and just walk around and pile a
few sticks across their path where
they are hauling down cotton wood or
willows to the lake or pond and they
will come and smell Of the stick and
get the scent Of your hands and your
tracks.
Then they will quit that place and
60 make another. Well, you do the
same at that place and so on two or
three nights and they will get your
scent 90 that they know It means no
harm to them. They will pull all your
sticks out Of the road and keep right
on at work. Now their fear of man 10
all past; they take no more notice of
your being around than they would
of a horse or cow.
"The beaver is one of the easiest of
the larger animals to domesticate. He
is fond of most any kind of roots, but
Of all the wild roots, he likes the big
pond lily root that grows to enormous
size. Some roots are ten to fifteen
feet long, three to four inches in d.
ameter They criss cross and grow
together till they are a regular mat,
Then what he likes next is the white
carrot, also the red. They are poor
eaters out Of dish; they want to sit
up and brace themselves on that mus
cular tail and take the food in their
forepaws, or their little hands. Fur
