apparently aimless. They go to

pointed, and the same is true Of

1t is true that to-day's work may
be finished in time to idle some
hours, but if to-morrow's work
is to be made a little better, some
studying and planning will have
to be done.
1t is a mistake to preach or
practice all work and no play,
but going to the train or loa6ng
at the store does not fall into
either class. Either of these is
just killing time, for the average
boy or man. Whether it is work
or play, the way to get the most
out Of it is to go at in earnest.
Half-hearted play and half-heart-
ed work are alike unsatisfying.

per or indoor traps or poisons is
ineffective, but may help. His
method is to make use in various
ways of the CONCEAL wire-mesh
fy-trap, which is familiar to al
most every one, in such a way as
to turn the tables on the flies
and put them in Jail and let our
selves out. The plan involves, of
course, the abolition as far as
possible of all breeding and
feeding-places for flies and the
application Of the fy-trap men,
toned above to the garbage can
to the screens on windows, to
the covers on manure-bins, etc.,
etc all of which can be done by a
little mechanical ingenuity.
Garbage-cans are on the market
which have a cover larger than
the can and not fitting down
closely on it so that the flies gain
access to the can under the cover
and escape through a hole in the
cover over which is fixed a fly
trap. In fighting the fly, Hodge
has found that the essentials of a
successful campaign are to trans
fer the fight against the fly from
the house to outdoors, and then
to exterminate it. Another es-
sential feature in a town Or city
is that households must cooper
ate. One ignorant or careless
home can breed flies enough
to vitiate the best endeavors of a
whole town. Hodge has succeed
ed in his neighborhood in prac-
tically eliminating flies; he uses
no screens in windows /or doors
and can sit out doors or have
windows or doors open at any
time without molestation. As

flies begin to breed early in the
spring and as they breed with
marvellous rapidity, the time to

The Boy who Meets the Train.

The boy who meets the train
is not an isolated example. Of
ten he is so well represented
at the village and small town
that he makes a crowd. He makes
the trip from one to four more
times when not busy at some
thing else. Usually he is on
time, reaching the depot as much
as fifteen minutes before the
train arrives, and spending as
much time after it leaves. There
is little to do but idly watch the
train and its passengers to see
who gets off, and talk with 9TH
ers who came with as little pur-
pose as himself.
Long day journeys prove that
the number of boys who meet
the train is large. How ruth
lessly they waste time. The
hour or two spent each day in
meeting the trains is largely
wasted, and yet they do moi
seem to give it a serious thought
They lack a plan or any definite
object. Nothing has to be done,
so why not seek a little excite
ment as the train goes through
The work that, belonged strictly
to that day was out Of the way,
and what had to be done in the
future would be disposed of in
the same way. Their attitude is

A Serious Abuse.

One of the greatest abuses in
the newspaper printing business
is the easy manner in which pub
fishers and printers extend cred
it to whoever may ask it. Mr..
Businessman comes into the Of
flee and gives an order for print
ing, asks when it will be deliver
ed, tries to make you do it quick
er than you promised, but never
says a word about when he ex-
poets to pay for it or what your
terms are, or whether you are
willing to give him credit. But
when the printer goes to the
tailor he is asked for a deposit
before the cloth ii cut, unless he
is known. If ne goes to the up
holsterer to buy a carpet for his
Office or home, he will be asked
to leave a deposit before they
willeven senda man tomeasureit,
And a stranger at a hotel with
out baggage is USUALLY required
to pay in anvance,
Have you ever thought this
over when you are. anxious to
take an order from a new GUS
toner? Wouldn't it be a good
thing if the printer-publisher
used the the same business pre-
caution these other men do and
would't' the buyer respect him
more for it?
Do you really know just where
you stand financially? If you
were to die tonight would your
business be worth rs per cent, of
what you imagine it to be worth?
Have you any reason to believe
it worth any more than it will
bring as junk? These are per-
tinent questions that every pub
Usher and printer should know
or make it o point to investigate

Milk to Make a Pound Of Butter.

The amount Of milk necessary
to make a pound of butter will
vary with the breed Of cows, the
individual, the period of latcation
and with methods used in hand
ling the products. There is a
general average, however, and
there are some rules for deter
mining about how much butter a
given number of gallons of milk
should make.
The main substance that butter
takes from milk is the fat. 1t
should contain about IS per cent
Of fat, and not less than 80. The
other Is or 20 per cent consists
of water, salt and casein Ga nee
essary constituent of cheese) +.
AS a general average we might
allow SO 1-3 per cent for the fat
of butter, This means that
1888 pounds Of fat will make a
pound Of butter when the other
materials ard added in churning
and sailing.
The fat content varies greatly,
but the average for butter breeds
oftcows will not be far from
per cent. Milk weighs about
1926 pounds per gallon. Now
with these figures it is easy tt
calculate how much milk it takes
to make a pound of butter.
Thus it takes about twenty.
one pounds Of milk to make q
pound Of butter. This is a little
in excess of two gallons and
half. Usually it takes much
