DRUNKENNESS OUT OF STYLE

have not seen a drunken man in
New York in year. said Sheriff
Grifenhagen to a convention of wine
growers in Sandusky. Whether the
Ohio men believed it or not, the
sheriff's statement is probably the
literal truth, says the New YORK
Press. Drunkenness has gone out of
style in this city. In the last ten
years it has grown steadily less. In
spite of the figures on the consump-
ton of spirits, which snow an in
crease, the fact remains that few New
York men now make intoxication their
pastime. There may be more drink
ers, but there are fewer drunk.
Some attribute the improvement
to the demands of modern business.
Efficiency and alcohol don't get along
together. Others will insist that
women, with their supposedly strong
er influence, have brought about the
good results. Your dancing enthusi-
asst will tell you that the tango is
the foe of the highball; but whisky
to excess was on the wane before the
dancing craze began.
Then there is amusement, includ-
ing the outdoor sports, which keep a
mans mind away from the cup. Most
men who drink too much do so be-
cause they have nothing more attrac-
tive to divert them. There are now
so many healthful diversions that ex-
cessive rum goes in the discard.
There is still the visitor who comes
to New York Ito get loaded" but his
ranks also seem to have been thin
ned.-Ex.

CORN FOR SILAGE

In all parts of the United States
where the silo has come into general
use, the principal silage crop is corn.
One reason for this is that ordinary
corn will produce more food material
to the acre than any other crop which
can be grown. 1t is more easily mar
vested and put into the silodhan any
of the hay crops, such as clover, cow
peas or alfalfa. With the harvesting
machinery which we have at the pres
ent time, these crops are much more
difficult to handle after being cut,
Furthermore, corn makes an excellent
quality of silage. The legumes, such
as clover and alfalfa are liable to rot
unless special care is taken to pack
the silage thoroughly and force the
air out.
The only objection which has been
raised concerning corn silage is the
fact that it contains insufficient pro-
TEN fully to meet the requirements Of
animals to which it may be fed. Some
persons have advised mixing clover,
cowpeas, or alfalfa with the corn
when filling the silo in order to cor
rect this deficiency of protein. Such
procedure is not to be advised,
however, if it is possible to cure the
clover or other crop onto hay, which
usually can be done if hay caps are
used. Since some dry forage should
be fed with the silage, it is better
to use the leguminous hay in this way
rather than to convert the crop into
silage.-U. S. Department of Agricul-
ture.

CURE FOR CORNS

In the Horse Shoer's Journal"
DR.. Jack Setter gives the following
treatment for corns:
Pare out the seat of the corn as
deep as possible without cutting into
the sensitive tissues and drawing
blood, then fill up the cavity with
crystals of iodine" doing so by hold
ing the foot perfectly level. Pour
about teaspoonfull of turpentine up
On it and in an instant there will be
a flash similar to that of powder ex-
ploding after being touched with a
match. We all know the curative
virtues of both iodine and turpentine,
and in using them in this manner
they are both readily absorbed by the
tissues. 1t is advisable to treat corns
several times in this manner during
each shoeing, say when the shoe is
first pulled off, and then again before
the shoe is nailed on. Of course, it
is necessary to adopt the usual pre-
cautions is fittin gthe shoe to see that
it fits so that there is no undue pres
sure upon the parts affected a bar

quest shoeing and treatment.
When using this treatment, care
should be taken that the operators
face and hands are kept out of the
way of the flash" as the resulting
vapor thrown off by the explosion is
apt to injure the eyes, OF burn the
face and hands, otherwise 1t is per-
fectly harmless. This treatment is
also excellent for thrush. ..s a. INK

1T PAYS TO FIND FAULT

OF all orchard operations none is
more neglected than the thinning OF
the trees when they have set more
fruit than they can develope, as is
!oftentimes the case. The years when
the trees particularly need thinning,
are those when all varieties are bear
ing, as then the prices of ordinary
fruit will be low, but there is always
a demand for fancy fruit at good
prices, and the removal of one-half
or two-thirds of the fruit on tree
will only double the size of the re-
mander, but, by changing it from
number two to number one, or fancy,
raise the value proportionately.
Many persons are afraid to thin
their fruit, fearing that after the thin
ming has been done even more may
be made to drop from other causes.
1t is true that what is known as the
June drop" often removes large
part of the crop, but these as rule
are fruits that have been attacked by
scab, curculio, codling moth, or other
fungi or insects, all of which can be
controlled by proper spraying. Really
this need not be seriously considered,
as the thinning should not be done
until the drop is over. AS a rule the
surplus fruits should be removed be-
fore the seeds or pits begin to harden.
For apples, pears and peaches this
would be when they are about the
size of hickory nut.-National
Farmer.

GROWING SHORTAGE OF FOOD
PRODUCTION

Eight years ago our imports of
chilled and frozen meat from the
United States were value at over
5000, 900 pounds 1925, 0,000). In
1912 they had sunk to $4,000 ($75,-
00O). This is by far the most striking
change that IS at present taking place
in the food trade conditions of the
world. 1t means that the onec-great
export meat trade of the United States
is now practically nonresident, and
that unless the Americans take steps
to increase their home production of
this staple article of food, they will
not only cease to export, but will be-
come to an increasing extent, rival
buyers in the markets of the world
with ourselves and other nations. We
are also threatened with the same
menace in the egg trade by the United
States and Germany, both of which,
instead of being able to supply their
own demand for eggs, are now buying
from Denmark, Russia and other
countries, from whom we have hithcr-
to derived supplies London Times.

FARM BUTTER MAKING

The Washington experiment sta
ton has put out some very condensed
hits on farm butter making, which
we reproduce herewith:
"Cool the lream from the separator
as soon as possible to SIS degreesF.
or lower.
"Never mix warm lream with cold
cream.
Mix all the cream to be churned
in one vat or can at least Is hours
before churning.
"Ripen at temperature of 20 to
rs degrees F. for from six to eight
hours, stirring frequently during this
period.
Cool cream to churning tempera-
ture as soon as ripe.
Let the cream stand eight hours
or more lover night at the churn-
ing temperature. .....t
THE temperature of churning
OuSHC TO De SuCn as TO make the
butter come in from 35 to 40 minutes,
usually IS to go degrees F.
eff it is desired to use artificial
coloring. it should be added to the
cream Just before churning.
Stop churning when the granules
are about the size of peas, varying to
the size of wheat, and draw off the
buttermilk.
Wash the butter once with pure
water about four degrees above
churning temperature, agitating seven
or eight times and drain.
add the salt wet while the butter
is in granular form, using about one
to one and one-half ounces for each
pound of butter, according to the de-
mands of the market.
Work the butter just enought to
distribute the salt evenly.
eff the butter is to go on the mar
ket, it should be put up in neat, at
tractive packages.

A Popular Contest in Which Everyone Can Enter
Without Expanding Single Cent

|.expect some friendly rivalry between
the city contestants and those re-
siding in the rual districts. There
are some very popular young ladies
living outside of the city who have j
host of friends who will work hard to
see their candidate win. While it is
too early to make any fair estimate
of the final outcome, we would al
most be willing to bet our last dol
lar that the city people will have to
hustle to keep ahead of their rivals
from the country.
The question of who will ultimate
ly receive the piano is certainly an
interesting one, and as all persons in
our community are eligible to par
ticipate in the contest, the interest
is sure to be quite universal. Ac-
cording to the conditions of this con-
test the piano will be awarded to
the person or society securing the
greatest value in certificates byThurs-
day, Dec. 81, 1914. This paper will
give further account of this contest
as it progresses, as We are sure that
our citizens will take an active in
terest in the contest and that they
will see to it that the piano is secured
by some person or society worthy Of
it, who will appreciate the gift.-adv.

ROW AMONG "DRYS"

There is a row between the two
factions o fthe "drys" in Idaho. The
Anti-Saloon league of this state pub
lished an editorial in their paper,
'"The New Republic"-which is print
ed in Ohio-in which it cautions per-
sons to beware of outside parties
coming into Idaho to help public
meetings for the purpose of raising
money.
Now comes the Idaho Prohibition
state committee asking all of the
papers of the state to publish long
communication defending J. H.
Worthenke. We do not know where
the fault is but we do not take much
stock in the branch which sends out
side for its printing or the branch
which imports a professional cash
raiser. We are led to believe that
the leaders of both branches of re-
formers are out for the long green
more industriously than improving
the conditions of Idaho.-Pocatell
Chronicle.

EASY MONEY

The number Of get-rich-quick con-
Germs being exposed by the post Of
fee authorities just now is unusually
large, the Elmore Republican says.
Which goes to show that the num-
Der of people simple enough to be
fooled by fake promoters increases
rather than decreases. Evidently the
experience of folks VINO have been
caught and feeced by bogus concerns
does not deter others. But then Just
so long as there are people who want
something for nothing, or at least
extra big returns for what they in.
vest, Just so long will the crop OF
suckers continue.

automobile parts-great heaps of
them-cylindor castings, crank cases,
axles. Then as things began to get
little bit coherent, along would
come a train of cars hanging insane
ly from a single overhead rail, the
man in the cab footing his shrill
whistle; whereupon | would promptly
retire into mental fog once more,
losing all sense of what things meant,
feeling that | was not in a factory,
but in a Gargantuan lunatic asylum
where fifteen thousand raving, tear
ing maniacs had been given full
authority to go ahead and do their
damnedest.
In that entire factory there was
for me but one completely lucid spot.
That was the place where cars were
being assembled. There | perceived
the system. No sooner had axle,
frame and wheels been Joined to-
gether than the skeleton thus formed
was attached, by means of a short
wooden coupling, to the read end
of a long train of embryonic auto
mobiles, which was kept moving slow
ly forward toward far-distant door.
Beside this train of chassis stood
row of men, and as each succeeding
chassis came abreast of him, each
man did something to it, bringing it
just little further toward compile
ton. We walked ahead beside the
row of moving, partially built cars,
and each car we passed was little
nearer to its finished state than was
the one behind it. Just inside the
door we paused and watched them
come successfully into first place in
the line. AS they moved up, they
were uncoupled. Gasoline was fed
into them from one pipe, oil from
another, water from still another.
Then as man leaped to the
drivers seat, machine situated in
the floor spun the back wheels
around, causing the motor to start;
whereupon the little Ford moved out
into the wide, wide world a complete
thing, propelled by it's own power.
