Old Girls and Bows.

If you ever feel that you are
getting too old to help about the
farm or the house, just think of
old-young folks. Last March a
lady 80 years young took a ride
in sleigh that was ll3 years
old, and had a lovely time. She
also helps her granddaughter
with the homework. She lives
near Bridgewater, Mass.
In..Brookville, Me-, there lives
a man who is IA years young,
and last winter, just to keep
himself busy and out of mischief
he cut "a cords of wood, hauled
60 cords and sawed it to fit the

the cattle on his farm. There

FARMERS INTEREST RATES.
Why Farmers Pay More For Money
Than Other Men.

Why Farmers Pay More For Money
Than Other Men.
To Farm and Fireside Judson c.
Welliver contributes an article show,
ing how farmers have to pay high
rates of interest in this country be-
cause they have no system Of collec-
tive credits such as they have for the
benefit of farmers in certain foreign
countries. The substitution of COM
munity credit for individual credit is
what always reduces rates of interest.
Cities borrow their money at lower
rates of interest than individuals be
cause they act as community. Fol
lowing is an extract from Mr.. Wei
livers article showing the rates of in
terest farmers pay in this country at
the present time:
Recently the department of agricul-
ture investigated interest rates paid
by farmers all over the country. 1t
was found. through statements made
by several thousand banks in answer
to questions. that on all loans to farm
ers, secured and unsecured. the aver
age rates run from a trife under pei
cent in most of New England, New
York, Pennsylvania and New Jersey
up to 1857 per cent in Oklahoma

Raising Colts.

Strong, healthy draft horses can be
produced without oats An expert
ment in progress at the Kansas Agri-
cultural college has disproved the be-
lief common Among farmers that this
feed is necessary for growing colts,
The experiment, which Is to last
three years, was started last January
by the department of animal husband
ry. Twenty colts were purchased, ten
grades and ten pure breds. These
colts were divided into two lots, with
five pure breds and five grades in each.
For nearly a year the two lots have
been fed the same sort OF roughage-
alfalfa, corn fodder and pasture. One
lot has been fed oats every day, and
ton consisting OF 10 per cent corn, %
! per cent bran and per cent oilmeal.
| These percentages are based upon
weight, not volume. One pound of this
mixture contains the same digesdble
elements as one pound Of oats. Also
from the standpoint Of energy value
the two feeds are equal pound for
pound Each lot Of colts has received
the same number Of pounds Of grain.
1.-The test shows that there is great
chance for saving in feeding" said DR..
G. W. McCampbell, assistant professor
of animal husbandry, who has charge
/ of the test. "a farmer can better af-
ford to feed the mixed ration with corn
at IS cents a bushel, bran at $50 ton.
oilmeal at $40 ton and oats at so
cents a bushel. The figures will prove
It. When the experiment was begun. In
January, prices were more nearly nor
NAL than they are now. Oats at that
time cost 1917 cents day. while the
combination feed cost 81 cents day"

The Perfect Laxative

Age has it's attractions no less than
youth in a more serene and quieter life
But it is this very life of rest without
sufficient exercise that brings with it
those disorders that arise from in
activity. Chief of these are a chronic
persistent constipation.
Most elderly people are troubled in
this way, with accompanying symptoms
of belching, drowSiness after eating,
headaches and general lassitude FIRE.
luently there is difficulty of digesting
wen light food. Much mental trouble
ensues, as it is hard to find a suitable
remedy. First of all the advice may be
given that elderly people should not use
salts, cathartic pills or powders, waters
or any of the more violent purgatives.
What they need, women as well as men,
is mild laxative tonic, one that is
pleasant to take and yet acts without
gripping.
