Has Your Cow a erioht Ev.

In the current issue of Farm and Fireside John Y, Beaty writing an article telling how to judge cattle as milk producers, says in part:
 A COW with bright eye is to be preferred to one with a dull appear ance. She will tend to business more than the other. Also the one with large nostrils indicate that she will always have a good supply of air to operate her lungs, and so her other bodily functions will be performed promptly and regularly. good COW will have short legs, and they will be ameoth and without extra meat

BETTER BE SAFE THAN SORRY,

--
 The Safety First society of New York has started an educational cam paign for motorists and their motto is, 1sBetter Be Safe Than Sorry, and they are right when they say: Care fitness first means safety always"
 These are the four precautions they recommended:
 1-Re considerate, that is. calm ane level headed under trying circum- stances
 2AGo slow: passing children. pass ing vehicles around corners, approach ing crossings
 3EStop! At railroad crossings, be- hind street cars taking on or discharg- ing passengers.
 AUse tire chains on wet and slip pcry pavements.
 The man behind the steering wheel can find nothing in these suggestions obnoxious; attention to them would make travel safer for all and less dan gerous ever for the careless pedestrian and Irresponsible infant.
 Being sorry, for a preventable acci- dent, doesn't meet the requirements of the law, or satisfy the mind of the one who is blamed.
 Safety first" is a good thing to bear in mind always.
