No statement was made at the White

some time in the autumn after the Pres

Cornish.

interest in regard TO President Wilson's
well known attitude toward the super
stition usually entertained with regard
to the number ia" The President
frankly admits that he regards thirteen
as his lucky number, for these
numerals have bobbed up in some way
with many happy incidents Of his life.
Mr.. Wilson absolutely refuses to
avoid at any time an encounter with
the numerical combination and his
friends have long ago become con-
vinced that he regards the "hoodoo"
supposed to accompany 1t as being en-
tirely friendly to him and his.
Because Of the Presidents partiality
for the number IS, official and social
Washington regard II as entirely Mt
ting that one OF his daughter should
overlook the superstitious prejudices
usually entertained by brides toward
the number.
White House Weddings.
There have been twenty odd mar
riages In which either the bride or
bridegroom was White House resi-
dent. but that OF Miss Alice Roosevelt,
daughter OF eX-President Roosevelt
to x-Representative Nicholas Long
worth Of Ohio. which occurred In her
fathers administration. was the twelfth
to take place In the White House.
This marriage was one Of the most
brilliant ceremonies ever held in the
White House. differing much from some
Of those in the last century. Some OF
the White House marriages have been
severely simple. but Miss Roosevclt's
marriage. like the first held at the White
House. which was In President Madi-
sons administration, was accompanied
by much display.

the high wooden managers and stall
partitions will be torn out and floors
and hangers OF cement constructed.
a single curved iron pipe will be used
tor stall partitions. Thus the interior
w1ll b. made light. sanitary and easy

strncted In the middle Of the barn and
from some distance below the ceiling

through the outside windows and the
foul air pass out through the central
shafts.
d Along with cleaning up the barn we
may well consider cleaning up the
yards. Clean milk cannot be secured
from cows running In dirty yard. for
lf the yard IL dirty the cows will be
alx0. Frequently we find cows during
4 wet season almost to their knees In
manure and fiith. Such conditions are
unhealthful for the cows and mean
contamination Of the milk. The manure
had best be hauled to the field as fast
~ I load accumulates. The cows
should have a dry, clean place to run
during the day. It means better milk
and more milk and more healthy cows.

One OF the greatest advantages that
the farmer can have In the early pur.
chase Of his herd boar lies in the fact
that he has flrst choice from among
the animals offered. No breeder has
yet succeeded In producing perfect
lot Of pigs. The most successful
breeders are those who produce the
largest number Of good pigs, but all
breeders produce inferior pigs and
those which have only a mediocre
quality. The farmer who waits until
be Is ready to use the boar before buy
ing him Is forced to take what is left
OF the breeding herd after all other
sales have been made from 1t. He
may possibly get good animal. but
the chances are against him, and the
small cost Of feed which the boar con
sumes during the months before he Is
actually used Is more than Offset by
this opportunity for first choice and
by the fact that the farmer can train
the boar himself and fit him to his en-.
vironment in his new home. There is
profit to be had In buying the bears
young for these reasons, as well as fol-
the added and important reason that
be does not cost SO much when bought
young as he does when grown to ma.
turity.
