RESULTS OF IMPROVED METH
obs OF DAIRYlNG.

The owners of a farm in Virginia
which was managed in the old-fash-
toned way kept 16 cows and sold their
butter in the local markets for q to
30 cents pound. The herd consisted
of ordinary cows of mixed breeding
which were allowed to run most of the
year, but were tied up in the "over-
shoot at milking time. In 1911, be-
coming dissatisfied with results, the
owners decided to ship cream to
Washington, D. G. This was found
to be more profitable, as they receiv-
ed As to SO cents a pound for butter
fat; but on the first visit of the dis
trict inspector the building were pro-
nounced insanitary. The cellar of
the dwelling hous was used as a
dairy house; the barn was an old
time general-purpose barn; there was
no silo on the place. The water sup
ply, which was pumped by windmill
from the neighboring creek, was con-
Sidered unfit for washing dirty uten-
silS.
The owner built new barn, a
dairy house, and silo at a cost of
| S1,7S9, according to plans furnished
by the department. The department
furnishes such plans to persons con-
| templating the erection of a new
dairy barn, milk house or silO, or for
the remodeling of an old building, if
requests are accompanied by state
ments Of character and size of build
ing desired. The new barn is one
story building large enough for 30
COWS, but so constructed that the
| cows can be kept clean with the least
amount of labor. The old barn re
| tanned for storage purposes.
Record sheets and scales for weigh
ing milf were obtained and daily
wesghings OF milk We're made.
representative for the department
assisted in making tests of the milk
with the Babcock tester, and gave
advice about feeding and genera
! management.
At the present time the herd has
been increased to 30 head of as gOO(
cows of mixed breeds as could be pur
chased, but it is doubtful if they ART
as good as those in the original herd
A pure-bred Holstein bull has beer
placed at the head of the herd. FOu
pure-bred animals of the same breet
have recently been added. FOllowin,

that during the year ending SEP
TENDER 80, 1913, the average yield Q

FARMERS ADVISED NOT TO-
SELL EGGS FROM lNcu3ATORS

A number of poultry raisers, it
seems, are putting on the market in
fertile eggs that have been tested in
incubatOrs from three days to week.
AS soon as the breeder finds that the
eggs will not hatch he takes them out
and sends them to the market along
with his fresh eggs. After the eggs
have been in the incubator for this
period they are distinctly stale and
rot very quickly if kept any length of
time. Even when just taken from the
incubator these infertile eggs are not
fit for boiling or poaching, although
they may be used for frying, and are
good for cake or certain other baked
foods. These eggs when they reach
the market, however, are classified as
low grade, No. 2.
The mixing of incubator eggs
with fresh spring eggs leads the egg
packers, who get their principal cold
storage supply in the spring, to cut
the price they pay the farmer, de-
partment investigators find. The
spring eggs designed for keeping
fer winter consumption must be abso-
lutely good Moreover, the egg pack

but hold them three at a time in the
hand and clink them to discover any
crack; and then judge their freshness
by their fresh, powdery look on the
she'll The mixture of infertile incu-
bator eggs with fresh eggs interferes
seriously with the clinking and forces
the packer to candle the eggs. He
then deducts this added expense from
the price he offers to the producer
Eggs which have once been subjected
to the heat of the incubator can not
be stored, even though frozen.
The farmer who sells incubator
eggs to the dealer, therefore, is very
liable to injure his own market. foI
fresh eggs. When the dealer find a
/ percentage of low-grade incubator
of other fresh eggs in their fresh
spring egg supply, they lower the
price for all eggs, so that they viii
be certain that they have covered
themselves against losses from this
cause. The departments specialists
advise the farmers to use any infertilt
eggs they may take from their incu
bators for home consumption an(
send only fresh eggs to market

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portions of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
infamed condition of the mucous
lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is infiamed you have a rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed deafness is
the result, and unless the iAflamma-
tion can be taken out and this tube
restored to its normal conGfIion, the
hearing will be destroyed forever; ;
nine cases out of ten are caused by
Catarrh, which is nothing but an in
famed condition of the mucous sur
faces.

the educational authorities of his
state have thoroughly investigated all
phases of school work, and evolved
what they consider one of the best
plans in operation. He urged that
Delaware follow suit and establish an
industrial educational board. Mr..
Miles lecture was illustrated by two
pictures entitled, IAN American In The
Making" and "The Man He Might
Have Been" Both added much to the
interest in his remarks.

ed Mr.. Miles, and in short address
he said he was thoroughly interested

work being fostered by the Wiscon-

A TRIBUTE
By Miss Annie E. Michener.

What is the name of the fairest
flower?
The rose, the lily, the violet blue?
Is it one OF those that bloom in the
sun
Or a woods-hower that's hidden
from view?
How gladly they lift their face to the
sky
And drink in the golden sun.
But the morning glory closes its eye
Before the day is half done.
Slowly the rose its petals unfolds,
How deep-dyed it's crimson hue,
What charming fragrance drifts on
the air
AS it drinks the morning dew
How pure the lily whose chalice is
white,
Shall we call it the fairest flower?
It ever blooms in bower of light,
But quickly fades in darkened
hour.
So many grow in Gods garden
That We may not name them all;
Some lie in clusters at our feet,
Some climb DER the garden wall
Lily Of the valley fragrant as frail,
Half hiding away from the sun,
Beautiful Edith reminds us Of you,
Dainty hands folded, life-work
done.
Still the hands that could trace the
rose,
That could paint the lily white;
Combed the long curls, closed the
dark eyes,
Having said your last goodnight"
Your sweet voice is not raised in
song,
The music you played is still.
The books you loved are closed today,
Your feet run no more at Will.
Flowers of varied form and hue
Were clustered around you there,
You were the lily among them,
Lying on your couch so fair.
Beautiful as a fairy queen
In your silken dress of white.
Broken the hearts of your dear-loved
AS they whispered their good
night"
You seemed to have fallen asleep"
To rest for a little space,
Your lips half parted in a smile,
The love of God on your face.
Through patient months Of suffering.
Kinduaoo from avprVOup
Dear mamma, kiss me and good
bye"
The fragile life was done.
"sing me the Dying Brother now"
Then your Grandma knelt by
your side
And fought back the tears that fain
would come,
And softly sang while you died.
: Twelve happy years passed as a day,
How fragrant your life and fair,
Dear one, we lay you away today
And leave you in Gods loving care.
You have Joined your father beloved
Who went so shortly before.
Brother James plays by mamma
side,
You wait on the farther shore.
