NEW EXPERIENCE FOR BARBER
Whose Face Had an Unequal
Growth of Hair.

Capt. w. V. Lucas, who was an Off
Ger in the Fourteenth Iowa regiment,
tells an amusing story of an incident
that occurred during General Prices
raid into Missouri in the last year Of
the Civil war The story appears in
pilot Knob by Messrs. c. A. Peter
son and J. M. Hanson.
"On arriving at Pilot Knob the aft
ernoon before the engagement of the
Twenty-seventh, l went into a barber
shop to be shaved. Suddenly, when
the barber had shaved only one-half
of my face, the long roll was beaten.
I left my chair instantly, and reached
my company, half block away, with
one side Of my, face shaved smooth,
whereas the other displayed a two
weeks growth Of beard. did not
complete the shave until six days
afterward, when a colored barber did
the Job at Rolla, rs miles away.
While working the dirt and sand out
Of the long side the fellows curiosity
was excited, until he could no longer
refrain from comments.
I nevah see face befo', sah,' said
he, dat one side was richer dan de
odder; but yo's is, suah!'
my explanation seemed to afford
him great relief" Compan-

all the sunlight possible for the well
fare Of the fowls. The studding, raft
ers, stills and plates are all of by As.
The uprights are placed 80 inches
apart, roof timbers two feet apart.
The frame is covered with
good grade of hemlock matched
boards, which in turn is covered on
the north side, east and west ends
with good grade Of roofing paper.
The south side is painted with two
coats. The rear or north side of roof
is not allowed to project. This makes
it possible to lap the roofing over this
joint, making it practically air tight.
The roosting closet is double boarded,
including the west end. In very cold
weather a muslin curtain is let down
In front. This comes to within six
inches of the bottom of the roost plat
form. This curtain should not be used
except on exceedingly severe cases OF
cold weather.
There are in the front, two windows
Of glass, each light 9 by II inches.
These windows are hinged on the in
side, SO as to swing in and against
the wall when open. These windows
are about two feet above the floor.
There is also an opening feet long
by feet wide, which is covered with
Inch poultry netting. Here also a
muslin or burlap covered curtain
frame is hinged to be lowered in Sc
we're weather. This curtain is so
hinged as to swing up against the
roof where it Is fastened when open.
This will admit plenty of fresh air
which is essential

Eastidious Pet.

The members of an automobile tour
ing party from Washington to Balti-
more stopped for the night at certain
caravansary at Hagerstown, in Mary
land. Since the food supplied them
was exercrable and since their kit fur
nished the necessary implements,
aside from the raw material, they de-
termined to have a Welsh rabbit. Ac-
cordingly two we're deputed to proceed
to a corner grocery, there to obtain
the cheese and crackers. When the
old chap that kept the place came for
ward one of the two said
1--WE want couple Of pounds Of
cheese and some large, square crack
ers for Welsh rabbit"
The old man seemed doubtful Il

NEW IDEA
Helped Wisconsin Couple.

It doesn't pay to stick too closely
to old notions of things. New ideas
often lead to better health, success
and happiness.
A Wis. couple examined an idea
new to them and stepped up several
rounds on the health ladder. The
husband writes:
Several years ago we suffered from
coffee drinking, were sleepless, nerv-
Gus, sallow, weak and irritable. My
wife and l both loved coffee and
thought 1t was a bracer." Delusion)
Finally, after years Of suffering, we
read of Postum and the harmfulness
of coffee, and believing that to grow
we should give some attention TO new
ideas, we decided to test Postum.
when we made it right we liked
1t and were free Of ills caused by
coffee. Our friends noticed the
ehange-fresher skin, sturdier nerves,
better temper, etc.
"These changes were not sudden,
but increased as we continued to
drink and enjoy Postum, and we lost
the desire for coffee.
Many Of our friends did not like
Postum at first, because they did not
make it right. But when they made
Postum according to directions on
pkg, they liked it better than coffee
and were benefited by the change

ment of Agriculture.)
1t is well known fact that trees
are subject TO injuries, from a great
variety Of causes. In a great majority
of cases these injuries are allowed to
remain untreated-often for years.
Reproducing fungi commonly gain
entrance at these places, and eventual
ly the original inconspicuous or unob-
served injury develops into a compare
lively large area Of decay. The real
aim of tree surgery is to repair the
damage, resulting from such neglect
ed injuries and rotted areas, says the
United States Department Of Agricul-
ture Year Book.
In most tree surgery work few fun
damental principles must be observed
in order that permanent good results
may be realized. These may be sum-
married as follows: Remove all de-
Cayed, diseased, or injured wood and
bark. When on small limbs, this can
often best be done by removing the
limb. On larger limbs or on the trunk
it may at times mean the digging out
of cavity. Sterilize and waterproof
all cut surfaces. Leave the work in
the most favorable condition for rapid
healing. This will often mean the
filing Of deep cavities. Watch the
work from year to year for defects,
and If any appear, attend to them i'm
mediately and thus avoid loss or ne
cessity of expensive repair in the fu-
ture
Tree surgery, or, more properly, tree
repair work, is not a mysterious art,
known only to a favored few, who
alone, are fitted to undertake it, as
some interested persons would have
tree owners believe. 1t can be under
taken by any careful man who has a
good general knowledge of the struc-
ture and life history of a tree, its
normal manner of covering wounds,
and how insects and decay organisms
cause damage, provided he can handle
a gouge and mallet, q saw, and tar
brush. For work in the tops of trees
he will also need a clear head and
ability to climb.
In its simplest type, tree surgery
consists in removing dead, diseased
or decayed limbs or stubs from a tree
and treating the scar with an antisep'

The three sides, north, east and west.

very important and should not be over
looked. The door should be at least
thirty inches wide and in some in
stances thirty-six inches is advisable.
The house is entirely single boarded
excepting where the roosting room is,
here 1t is ceiled on the inside with
matched material to within a few
inches below roost platform and four
feet up the north slope of roof.

feet long, framed together and only
two inches above roost platform. The
nests are made like drawers, pulling
from shelf "a inches wide and 1S
inches high, along the west end of
house. There are ten of these nests.
The top is built slanting to prevent
fowls from roosting on the same at

large dry mash hopper. This house
will cost about sixty dollars for mate

is high priced it may cost little more.
