In Memorian,

Ida May Harlan (nee ShumaD,
was born in Miami county, Kansas,
May %, 1881.
With her parents removed to
Cofiey county, Kansas, In 1883, where
on December 2b, 1901, she was united
in marriage to N. M. Harlan.
Six children were born of this
union, Of whom four; Lena, aged IL;
Lois, o; Jesse, Z; Viola, 2; are still
living.
In 1908 the sanity came to Meeker
where they have since resided, and
where there will always be pleasant
memories of the ones who has passed
into rest before Us.
Mrs. Harlan was . faithful, con-
sistent Christian. Her life was beau
tiful in It's devotion to her family
and friends.
Her sweet patience and quiet en-
durance throughout her long and
painful illness was most touching,
and endssred her to all who came
near her.
We, who knew her best mourn her
most sincerely, and pray our Heav-
emily Father to bless and comfort
those nearest and dearest to her In
whose hearts and lives her death
leaves . wound no other hand can
heal.
Beside her husband and children
Mrs. Harlan leaves her father,
mother and one sister, Mrs James
Tiiford of White River, to mourn her
loss.
We commend them to One who
knows His children's every grief and
who alone can comfort the stricken
heart.
Let US remember that:
Deaths but path
that must be trod
Ifman would ever
pass to God"
A FRIEND.

KEEP THE DAIRY cow CLEAN
Problem of Sanitary MIX supply Is to
Exclude All Bacteria Possible
Some Precautions.

Milk from healthy cows is practical
ly free from bacteria when secreted.
The problem of a sanitary milk sup
ply. therefore, is to keep out all bac-
terra as far as possible. Bacteria are
introduced into milk mainly by small
particles of dirtlwhich either drop into
the milk from the COW or are carried
In the air.
Repeated tests have shown that even
when COW is cleaned as thoroughly
as is possible under stable conditions,
particles of dust will be thrown off
from her body during milking time,
and these get into the milk and con-
taminate 1t. Cows should be kept
away from sources Of contamination,
such as sink holes in which stagnant
water accumulates, for such holes
breed enormous numbers of putrefac-
tive bacteria which are especially dam

FENCES SAVE MUCH PASTURE
In Many Cases Fencing of Field Will
Pay for Woven Wire used-Good
Aid to Prosperity.
(By e. ]. MILLER.l

Fencing and moving Of fences should
be done early, SO that all Of the spare
fields can be grazed over to make use
of the grasses and other herbage that
have grown up In them after the early
fall rains.
Much feed can be saved in this way,
the stock viii do better and it will give
the permanent pastures time to
green up before the cold weather.
New and clean pastures mean health
Ter animals, and the utilizing of all the
fence rows means turning waste prod
ucts into dollars.
In many cases the fencing of field
this fall for new pastures will entirely
pay for the woven-wire fencing used.
Buy and use good fencing for all the
