LOOKING PROSPEROUS.

One of the reasons why advertising
has grown so enormously of recent
years is that merchants realize that a
business to succeed must carry an at
mosphere of prosperity, says the Her
ald-Republican.
The man who enters business Of
fee with soiled clothes, and face un-
shorn, and muddy boots, is not apt to
get job. This may be due to super
fetal judgments, but people have to
make the best use they can of exterior
indications.
Similarly the public judges of a
merchants success by exterior signs.
A business man who does not adver-
tise conveys the impression of passive
ness and indifference, of slow going
old-fashioned methods
The public values enterprise in re-
tail trade higher than almost any
other one quality, LIBERAL advertising
is to a merchant what good clothes
and clean appearance are to sales
man. 1t suggests that merchant is
prosperous, that he has in the past
succeeded in pleasing the public, that
he is alert enough to get good bargains
for his customers. 1t shows that he
has such confidence in his goods that
he is willing to spend money to tell
people about them.

who were rash enough to advise that
an inquiry into the real cause of high
prices be made before action was TAX

And now the medicine turns out to
be quack remedy. No cure has
been worked, no benefit has been
gained Indeed the patient shows
symptoms worse than before There
is already loss of industrial vitality,
there is poor money circulation, the
prosperity pulse is weaker and the
business heart is in need of artificial

worn off this measure of alleged pure

There are dark clouds where sunshine

even to the Democrats that the high

Why Working Women Need Vote.

The Ford Motor Company will at
once put into operation a profit shar-
ing plan by which $l0,0O0,000, repre-
sentng approximately one-half the
profits of the company, will be distrib-
uted annually among its employees.
According to the press statements an
nouncing this plan, the women en-
ployes will not share in the distri
button of profits, mot being consid-
cred the economic factors that men
workers are" although the women as
we'll as the men will have increased
wages In California, where women
vote, two hundred men employed in
the garment makers trade recently
went on strike, not because of dis
satisfaction with their own wages, but
because the wages of $50 women en-
ployed in the same trade were too
low. The employers then offered to
increase the wages of the women at
the expense of the men Chat is by
lowering the wages of the mem and
the women, not to be outdone in gen
crosby, refused OF accept the increase
California women it seems are not
only economic factors, but are also
the recipients of the chivalry of which
one frequently hears from anti-suf-
fragiSts.

Shaw will speak at each of the confer
ences and Mrs. Gait will be present
throughout the entire time in each

the faith that the mysterious pro-
cesses of evolution will bring the re-
suit The other class is composed of
suffragists who know that suffrage is
coming, but that it is a very long way
off. Surely not in my time, they say.
Now, if the optimistic suffragist could
become possessed of the idea that evo-
luton evolves when the people desire
it to do so, and that never-ceasing,
self-sacrfcing work is necessary from
now on; and if the pessimistic suffra
gist could become imbued with the
realization that this is the appointed

would be little question of success"

CARE FOR MACHINERY
Properly Housed Farm lmple-
ments Means Big Saving.
Tools Should Be Well Selected, Kept
In Good Repair and Adjustment,
Oiled Thoroughly and Cleaned
Before Housing.

In travelling over the country, the
ordinary observer is unfavorably i'm
pressed with the methods now COM
monty found in use by many farmers
for taking care of their machinery.
AS a general rule, the prosperity of
farmer may be estimated by the way
he cares for his machinery. Poor
care indicates shiftlessness, waste, lack
of energy and the necessity of buying
more machinery in short time. Good
care, on the other hand, indicates
prosperity, DEVELOPMENT, bank de-
posits, and long-lived machinery.
To properly care for the farm i'm
plements means that they must be
well selected, kept in good repair and
adjustment, oiled thoroughly, cleaned
before housing, and have all wearing
parts we'll creased when not in use,
aud painted when necessary, and
must be properly housed. To neglect
any of the lines CT care mentioned,
means serious damage and loss to the
machinery.
There Is no question but that to
properly house machinerw is a greas
saving, as it not ouly adds great
deal to the life of the machine but 1t
also adds to the general appearance
of the farm. 1t is generally found

the road to give the farmer the equiv
alent in land equally good in place
of what he has sacrificed to the com
mon welfare.
At any rate the office OF roads Is
now taking special pains to make
clear the economic advantage OF
avoiding steep grades in their roads,
even at some sacrifice of better land
Investigations shows that the laying
Of such roads over hills has resulted
more from the attention to the pres
ervation of farm lines than from
scientific attention to the problem OF
road building According to the testi-
mony of farmers consulted where
horse might be able to pull 1000
pounds on level road 1t would have
difficulty in pulling 5000 pounds up
a steep hill The size of the load
therefore tends to be measured by the
grade of the largest hill on the road
to market. In a number Of cases OF
actual experiment shows that the re
locating of roads around hills has
been accomplished either with no ad.
dition in road length In some in
stances, and with the adding of only
a few feet to the highway in others.
The Office knows OF no case where
a properly relocated road which has
cut out grades has led to any ques-
ton as to its material reduction of
hauling costs.

FORECAST OF FUTURE COWS

Be Obtained by Supplying Need

(By w. A. BARR. United States Division

The best forecast Of the future
dairy cow is the number of pounds OF
feed received from weaving time
until two years of age. The ration
between the productive capacity of
the COW and the care given her dur.
ing the growing period is quite con-
slant. Constitution and capacity can
only be gotten by supplying the nee
essary building requirements. Large.
strong cows are the results of care
while heifers. The dairyman must
be both a breeder and feeder I'm
proper feeding defeats the very OBJ
ject sought by breeding. The dairy
COW is a highly-specialized animal,
and like all specialized animals. there
is a tendency toward reversion, this
tendency increasing with the more
highly developed and improved ami.
NAL. Scant feeding causes as rapid
reversion toward the unimproved
type as does careless breeding.
The animal must adapt itself to
It's surroundings, and reversion is no
more than adaptation; so if the food
supply Is not sufficient the greatest
development which means the great.
est efficiency, is not possible.

RELOCATING THE OLD ROADS
Average Life Of Horses and Automo-
bIIes May Be Increased and the
Cost of Hauling Reduced.

The average life of horses and auto
mobiles may be increased and the
cost of hauling reduced, according 10
the Office of roads, department OF
agriculture, by relocating many Ola
roads and the more scientific laying
out of new ones. The natural tend
ency in road building is to build
straight road whether it goes over
steep grades or hills or not, and pull
ing over these grades naturally ADDS
to the wear and tear on horses and
vehicles. The doctrine of the ofhce OF
roads Is that the longest way around
may often be the shortest and most
economical way home, and that fire.
quently by building highway around
a hill or grade but little appreciable
distance is added and this Is more
than Offset by the reduced strain OF
hauling.
The chief drawback from the farm
owners point Of view is that the lay
ing out of road on this principle or
avoiding grades necessitates in some
cases running the road through good
farm land or orchards of pastures in
stead of going around the farm line
and building the road through old
worn out fields and over rocky knolls
This of course must raise question
in the mind of the individual land
owner as to whether the cutting up OF
his property by road yields him in
dividual advantages and so dement's
his community as to Offset the use OF
such land for a road or to overcome
the Inconvenience of having his land
divided In this connection the Office
of roads points out that the running OF
a road and the resulting traff1c
through a good farm where there are
good cattle. horses, sheep, grain

vertising value and in many instances
makes the land more valuable. In

CLOSET IS OF NO ADVANTAGE
Better Without Curtain-Found to
Be Unnecessary.

In the curtain-front type Of poultry
house used at the Maine experiment
station feature of the original plan
on which considerable stress was laid
was the canvas curtain in front of the
rOosts.
This curtain, together with the back
wall of the house and the droppings
board under the roosts formed closet
In which the birds were shut up at
night during cold weather. When the
curtain front house was first devised it
was thought essential to provide such
a closet to conserve the body heat of
the birds during the cold nights when
the temperature might 60 we'll below
zero. Experience has shown, how
ever, that this was a mistake. Act
ual test shows that the roosting clos
ct Is of no advantage, even in such
severe climate as that of Oropo. On
the contrary, the birds certainly thrive
better without the roost curtain than
with it. 1t has been a general OBJ
servation among users OF the curtain
front type of house that when the
roost curtains are used the birds are
particularly susceptible to colds. 1t Is
not hard to understand why this
should be so. The air In roosting
closet when it is opened in the morn
Ing is plainly bad The fact that 1t Is
warm in no way offsets physiologically
the evils of its lack Of oxygen and eX-
cess of carbon dioxid, ammoniacal va
pors and other eXhalations from the
bodies of the birds:
For some time past it has been felt
that the roosting closet was at least
unnecessary, If not in fact positive
evil, says writer in the Baltimore
American. Consequently the time of
beginning to close the roost curtain in
the fall has been each year longer de-
layed. Finally, in the fall of 1910, 1t
was decided not to use these curtains
at all during the winter. Consequent
" they were taken out of the house,
or spiked to the roof, as the case
might be. The winter of 1901 was
a severe one. On several occasions the
temperature dropped to 80 degrees be-
low zero Yet during this winter the
mortality was exceptionally low and
the egg production exceptionally high.
In view of this experience the sta
ton has decided to discontinue the
use of the roost curtain. 1t would
seem to be generally understood or at
least unnecessary.
