GOATS MILK IS EXCELLENT
Nothing Better for Children, as u 10
Almost Entirely Free From
Dreaded tuberculosis.

The common milk goat can be kept
by the families who cannot afford to
Keep COW and as the milk of the goat
3 highly nutritious II is an excellent
substitute for the cows milk. For
children there is nothing better and II
Is a well-known fact that 1t is almost
entirely free from tuberculosis.
But, answering a question Of cor
respondent as to whether ii Is profit
able to keep common goats on the
farm for the milking purposes, we
should say that as a general rule 1t Is
not.
Goats require the proper feed Just
the same as other animals IL they are
expected to give large quantities of
milk and unless one lives near large
city where goats milk can be sold to
hospitals and rich private patients Of
physicians, it cannot be disposed of to
advantage. .
Common goats are cheap to begin
with; they cost little II small flock
is kept on large farm, as they can
pick up pretty fair living by brows-
Ing on the place:
On the other hand, the odor from
the bucks is lntolerable to most people.
Goats are difficult to confine within
bounds as they will climb fences Of
almost any height. and their favorite
summing place is the top of the barn
roof. Altogether, we should say that
the common milk goat Is entirely out
of place on the average farm. Used
to supply milk. for special purposes
or by people who are unable to keep .
COW, tfey are more or less valuable.

Citizens of Audubon Iowa who have
followed the wonderful career of Rev.
Billy Sunday since he conducted his
series of revival meetings here in 1901,
will be interested to know that BIZ
Ography of his life has been prepared.
Theodore T. FrankenbeTg, of Column

Sunday campaign in Columbus for the
Ohio State Journal, has written the re-
markable life story and in it has brought
out many interesting facts about the
famous evangelist which were hitherto
unknown.
The author has traced Rev. Mr.. sum
days career from the start. To verify
the isolated facts about campaigns held
years ago, before Billy Sunday had be-
come a national figure, he correspondent
with ministers, editors and prominent
citizens in every city and town in which
a Sunday campaign has been con-
Quoted.
The data. relative to the Audubon
campaign came from newspaper clip

very convenient outfit for spraying

ner of their cultivation, It is not prac-
ticable to go among with team and

For extensive spraying. It is well
to secure a strong pump attached to
barrel or tank that can be hauled

pumps 80 attached are used for small
orchards and other plants grown in
a moderate way, but power pumps are
necessary for extensive spraying and
for that required by tall trees.
A man engaged In fruit growing or
potato growing, as a business, ought
to have power sprayer of some sort,
either operated by the wheel of the
vehicle carrying the outfit, as In the
compassionate sprayers, or by a gas

True Thrift.

A certain millionaire, who owes his
fortune to his thrift and economy,
tells this story of a bookkeeper to
illustrate the way In which those
qualities work TO the advantage of
their possessor:
Il once made up my mind" said
the bookkeeper, shat I would become
the owner Of gold watch. I saved
up the money for It in this way:
When I. felt like eating a 50-cent
luncheon / ate ascent one instead
and put the other quarter aside for
my watch fund. You win hardly be-
heye It, but In less than six months
had saved money enough to pur-
chase the watch"
But you don't Sem to have bought
IT." objected his friend.
well, no. When I found how cas-
lily I could get along without the 90
cent luncheons concluded l could
get along without the gold watch,

house-andlot fund now."--Youth's

MISTAKES MADE BY AUTHORS
Interpretations by Popular Writers
Have Been Many, and In Some
Cases They Have Stuck.

Some of the most frequently used
quotations are not quotations at all.
but In many cases convey the oppo-
site meaning of the original word.
ing.
Fenimore Cooper, for instance,
Thought he was quoting from the BIZ
BILE when he spoke of an inscription
being devised that "he who runs may
read" signifying that 1t was easily
read by a man in haste. If Cooper
had looked in his Bible he would
have found In the book Of Habakkuk
that the passage he tried to quote
was: Write the vision and make IL
plain that he may run that readeth
It," The vision was q warning and
the reader was to fee from danger, but
the Cooper version has survived the
original and practically put it out Of
use.
A popular chronic misquotation is
that of the passage In "Hudibras,
which says: He that complies
against his will is of the same opin-
ion still" Authors and public speak
ers without number have twisted
that into "A man convinced against
his will is of the same opinion STILL"
forgetting that man who was con.
WINGED could not possibly remain of
his previous opinion, for II he was
of the same opinion he would not be
convinced.
Theodore Roosevelt publicly de
clared that Washington In his fare
well address said: ITO be prepared
for war is the most effective means
to promote peace" But the first
president said nothing of the sort in
his farewell address. In his first mes
sage to congress he said: 'To be pre-
pared for war is one of the most of.
fective means of preserving peace .
and he spoke of other means as
well.
Novelists do not seem to be very
strong in their knowledge of the
Scriptures somehow, and Sir Walter
Scott In THE Heart of Midlothian"
attempts to point moral with the
words: "Our simple and unpretend-
ing heroine had the spirit Of those
peacemakers to whom II is promised
as benediction that they shall in
herit the earth" The fact is that
the peacemakers did not receive any
such promise, but 1t is said that "the
meek shall inherit the earth"

$4,000 PAID FOR HORSE
Government OF Argentina Buys crag-

The sum of $4,000 was paid re-
Gently by the government of Argen-
tina for the horse Craganour, which
was first past the winning post In the
recent derby race. but was dis
qualified for humping. Only on four
occasions has the price paid for
Craganour. which is to be used for
breeding purposes In Argentina, been
exceeded In the amount paid for a
race horse. These were Ormonde,
which was sold for s156,2b0 TO an
American sportsman; sCyllene. which
went to an English sportsman for

Kansas Agricultural College says:
Few things retard the growth OF a
hog so much as lice. Years Of ex-
perience have shown that the best
remedy for destroying the lice and
fieas is dipping In chemical solutions.
Dipping also keeps the skin Of the
animal in healthy condition and
thereby aids growth. Because OF

qualities, most dipping watts are now

suraery to Prevent Murder.

form Of insanity that causes murder is
small bone pressing against part Of

removing the bone that Is pressing
and inserting thin silver plate, will
turn the murderer into kind hearted

The trouble. DR.. Ardman confesses,
that is hardest to overcome is to find
the man with criminal tendencies and
perform the operation before and not
after the crime. The murderer usually

Corn for sllaae.

Corn for silage should be plowed
only one way. The corn should be
drilled In the row and thinned to one
stalk to the foot. A small-sized stalk
and ear is much more preferable for
silage than the large stalk and ear
that usually results where the corn
is cultivated for feed.
