JUST THROWING OUT A HINT
If Charity Fund Was to Be Given to
the Needy, He Could Use
Part of II.

The children of a Boston Sunday
school class had contributed their
pennies for weeks to a fund which
was to be devoted to charitable pur-
poses, and on the day when they were
to decide upon the matter of its dis
tribution each child was called upon
to express an opinion as to how it
should be spent.
The teacher explained to them that
there were several charities which
would be glad to receive the fund,
either in Boston or among the for
eign missions She had impressed
upon them, however, that the money
might be spent to good advantage
among the sick and needy children
of their own parish. Several bright
speeches on the subject had been
made, when one seven-year-old boy
arose and, evidently bearing in mind
( the teachers remarks about charity

Every farm in the corn belt, wheth-

few sheep. They are docile. clean and
easily handled
Compared with the cost of maintain
Ing other stock the up-keep OF main

They do best upon a grass diet with
a little grain in addition. The profit
comes. not from keeping them as a
main issue. but from few head Of
well bred. well fed ewes. kept to clean
up the fence corners. keep down the
lawns. Craze on the roadsides and
other kindred places.
The keep OF flock managed this
way Is practically nothing. for what
they eat would otherwise go to
waste
A flock OF ten or fifteen sheep SO
managed will yield a very handsome
income. Fifteen ewes can easily be
depended upon to raise 20 lambs

considered that 1t represents practical

to the man who, instead of keeping

MOST ECONOMICAL
OF ROUGH FEEDS
Silage Is Greatly ReIished by Al
most All Kinds of Stock
Good for Milk.
(By A. o. CHOATE)

1t is usually estimated that 1t costs
20 cents to 81 per ton to put corn into
the silo. but ! know that my neighbor
and myself put It in for so cents OF 60
cents at the outside, per ton.
find that on my farm | can cut an
acre OF corn yielding 10 to IA tons
and put 1t in the silo for ST. or about
so cents the ton
The same acre OF corn would have
$50 bushels of ears that would cost
me IS in the husking alone. which.
with the cost OF cutting. shocking
shedding and grinding. cost me double
what 1t does to put the crop into the
silo
My silos last year we're filled very
full. holding % acres, close to, or
quite 800 tons. and the total expense.
figuring men at s1.75 per day would
be $3.50, exclusive of the board for
the men.
In what other manner can one han
die a crop of corn so cheaply and have
It ready TO feed right where 1t Is
wanted?
Not only is silage the most economi-
cal Of rough feeds. which is, think.
the greatest claim that can be made
in its favor. but It is also greatly rel
ished by almost all kinds OF live
stock and is absolutely necessary for
the production of maximum of milk
in the winter time.
1t is very easy matter to tell by
the condition of the cows coat in the
winter time whether she is getting
silage. as its succulence has the same
effect on the system Of the COW that
pasture grass has, and it keeps hel
thrifty and in the best condition fol
her everyday work.
Silage is also more digestible anC
nutritious than the same amount o.
dry feed Another point in its favol
is its convenience.
With silage ready for feeding ever,
day in the year much less help is re
ouired to care for the live stock thai
will be needed where II Is necessar,
to cut or shred fodder in the white
time.
Ten or twenty minutes per day vii
be all the time required to get GU
the silage and feed the herd.
Practically all the talk about silag
for feeding is concerning its use TO
winter feeding. but | insist that 1t l
almost as necessary In the summer
in the winter.
If we could be sure that we woul
have plenty OF rain and resulting goo
pastures all summer. silage would nc
be necessary. OF course. but almos
every summer brings dry perio
when the pastures get poor and tn
COWS shrink I'm their milk supply. an
then it is hard to get the COWS lack
their normal flow. even II later we
have the good pastures again.
Nearly all the best dairymen like
supply some feed to their COWS. eve
when on the best Of pastures, both &c
the food value to the cows and for tn
manurial value to the pasture. an
nothing is more convenient for tn

EASY TO MAKE ARTISTIC TRAY
May Be Fashioned Into Dainty
Articles for the Table.

Sea moss, ferns and flowers, asso-
ciated with memories OF pleasant
hours spent by the seaside or in the
country, may be preserved in a most
artistic but practical way in the form
of trays and glass table protectors.
One Of the most beautiful of these
trays was seen in a well-known jewel
er's window. 1t was made with the
brown seeds of the milkweed and the
fluffy satiny wings which carry the
seeds away. Small yellow butterflies,
which may be seen fiuttering along
almost every country roadside were
arranged so as to be over and around
the milkweed. This artistic picture
was framed between two pieces of
with rim OF silver.
While one may not be able to buy
these trays, bound in silver. they can
be made at home with slight expense
by framing between glass or binding
the edge with rafiia and reed.
Ferns, seaweed. or even autumn
leaves, arranged between glasses
framed in mahogany. with handles at
tached. make very good-looking and
dainty trays, while saving these bits
OF out-ofdoors for US.
Protectors for the polished table
and desk can be readily made. A table
protector. made in circular form
with milkweed and butterflies. can be
framed with rafiia instead OF silver
Bind the two pieces OF glass together
with passepartout binding, then make
a narrow frame OF raffia and reed
using the lazy sQuaw stitch. Use
brown raffia and the effect will b.
most delightful.
The ferns and grasses could bs
mounted on cardboard over which pom
gee is tightly stretched. and ther
framed under glass. The pongee form
