The buyer of pure-bred live stock

complain that large number OF

WHY TRIMMING ON LEFT SIDE
Custom Now Universally Followed
Goes Back to the Days of Chiv-
airy and the Rapler.

Did you ever wonder why it seems
natural to put trimming on the left
side of the hat? OF course this year
we are not natural, SO far as trimming
Is concerned. We swathe our waists
with thick folds, we gather our skirts
in front, we fasten buckles, bows and
other decorations at our knees. and we
blithely wear the trimming of our hat
at left or right, front, back or in the
middle. Perhaps this fashion will dull
our feeling that the left side is the
suitable side for trimming
This is the reason, anyway why we
have had to hold ourselves in check
lest we put our hats on backward or
sideways to bring the trimming to the
time-honored left side:
In the old, old days, when men went

DON'T LET WRINKLES COME
Use Preventive Measures to keel
Your Face Smooth, and Con-
troll the Emotions.

I once heard a woman say: 1.-THE
best way to treat wrinkles is to avoid
getting them" This may sound absurd
but 1t is true. Wrinkles are caused by
bad facial habits.
Laughing. crying. frowning or smil.
ing will not make you wrinkled, unless
you do one or the other habitually,
then the face becomes set" To keep
the muscles of the face exercised will
not give you wrinkles. Scowling and
wrinkling the forehead when reading
or studying. or when conyersing, will,
IL continued persistently, soon show
deep wrinkles in the forehead, and
about the eyes. You can check your
self of these habits and thus avoid
acquiring wrinkles.
II the eyes are weak or over
strained it is easy to fall into the habit
of drawing the forehead down In
wrinkles about the eyes. thus giving
yourself a cross look, that you prob
ably do not deserve. Pressing gently
the nerves around the eyes and stop
ping now and then to close your eyes
Is very restful to them. If your eyes
are troublesome, however, better con
suit an oculist.
Do not allow yourself to be tortured
by shoes that are too small or uncom.
Portable clothing. Your comfort has
more to do with facial expression than
perhaps you realize.-Mme. Jeanne La
Place, in the Woman's World.

SCARCITY OF PURE
BRED STATIONS
Some of Specimens Of Horses
Used for Public Service Are
Remarkably Poor.

The situation abroad is very much
better than In this country. In fact
practically no scrub, grade or non
registered stations. are used for pub
lie service.
In investigations OF this matter car.
ried on by Dr. A. s.. Alexander OF
Wisconsin 1t was found that there
we're in one state 60 per cent. grade
stations and only 40 per cent pure
bred.
Some of the specimen horses used
for public service are remarkable ex-
hibitions of wretchedly bred. run down
and diseased animals.
The effect of breeding from such
stock is apparent In the very low
grade of horses produced. Water can
not rise above its level neither can a
grade stallion raise the blood level of
his progeny above that OF his own
veins in quality.
The use of such sires, therefore,
means retrogression and a great
damage to the farmers of any state.

EXPERIMENTS IN
STEER FEEDING
SiIage Can Be Used as Roughaca
Even in Coolest Of Winters
Other Tests Made.

Experiments In steer feeding at the
Pennsylvania Experiment station
showed that in cattle feeding the
profit secured from the by-product OF
feed lots may amount to more than
the direct financial gain on the cattle.
The test shows concIusively that
silage can be used as roughage even
In the coldest of winter when fed in
an open shed; that there was a con-
siderable saving of corn by the exclu-
sive use OF siiage during the FIRST part
of the feeding period and that the
value Of feeds utilized in the produc-
tion OF beef during the winter of 1911
IL was much greater than their mar
ket value.
The results OF this and other tests
at the Pennsylvania station Indicate
that beef can be finished probably In
the state, where due attention is
paid to the growth OF crops equally
adaptable to the soil and to feeding
purposes.

We can get larger returns from our
hogs, than In any other way. For
three years the writer has been sell
Ing his corn to grade Holstein COWS
for dollar a bushel cash. besides the
fertility returned to the field, says
writer in the Farm, Stock, and Home
The same iB true OF that which has
been fed to poultry. The remark is
often heard: The dairy COW is too
much work. don't like to milk, and
/ can't get hired men that will do it."
That is no doubt true where one
tries to do two times as much work
as he ought. and when the dairy is
cared for In haphazard way
where men are expected to work hard
in the field ard do the milking in a
filthy barn. 1t is not uncommon to
see barns where the cows and horses
have to sleep on dirty and hard floors
without any bedding, while tons and
tons Of straw are every year being
burnt
Under such conditions is there any
wonder that our hired men do not
want to milk? In communities where
the most of the farmers have good,
clean barns, with cement floors, and
use plenty Of bedding. they have little
trouble in getting their men to milk.
But X your conditions outside of
these mentioned are such that you
can't help. and don't like to milk.
there are good opportunities for you
In beef or pork raising.
Fit a carload or two OF steers every
winter to put onto the market In the
spring. when prices are high. It is no
doubt true that the work with fat
stock is not so particular as that with
the dairy COW. 1t does not require
such expensive buildings nor SO much
help excepting in the winter when It
is easy to get. Owing to the high
prices of beef during the past two
years cows and young calves that
should have grown into beef have
been rushed onto the market by the
thousands.
Indications are that there will be a
shortage In beef supply, and prices
will be still higher In few years to
come than they are at present So
there will be good opportunities for
any one who wants to do something
besides growing grain. There is good
money in stock when 1t is cared for in

There Can Be No Compromise

The speech, also, will probably put quetus upon rumor reactionary sources, of movement to make Colonel Roosevelt the republican nominee in 1916.
