Calumet the Secret of Economy

The high cost of living nowadays. n
the way prices are steadily climbing sky
wards, is making economy In the kitchen
even more important than it was In the
good old days of our thrifty ancestors.
But how to achieve economy? There's
the rub!
In many lines. 1t depends almost en-
foods and on her watchfulness-but for
tunately. In one line, baking. economy
can be mad almost automatic by the use
Of the famous Calumet Baking Powder.
Economy in baking. as every good cook
knows. depends not so much on cOnom
in buying the materials as on the success
Of her bakings. Failures mean waste
bigger losses by far thar the savings she
makes In buying. And the fact that Calu-
net absolutely prevents failures and
makes every baking successful has made
II the favorite OF every cook that seeks
to be economical In other words, Calu-
met is the secret OF economy In baking.
It Is the puresf, too-attested by hum
dreds Of leading physicians-and as for
that Calumet has received the highest
awards at two Worlds Pure Food EXPOSE

1.-THE Devil to Pay."s

The expression, The devil to pay
and no pitch hot had it's origin in the
ship yard. When calking the seams of
the deck it was important that the
oakum in those seams should be kept
dry. This was done by paying" or
in other words filling the seams with
hot pitch, which was done with a
long-handled mop made especially for
that use. II a sudden shower should
come up and wet the oakum before the
seam was 'payed' or filled with pitch,
the fresh water would rot the oakum
and there would be the devil to pay"

PROFIT BY GOOD CARE
Poultry on the Farm Receives
Indifferent Treatment.
Close Watch Should BE Kept on Bust.

(By r. G. WEATHERSTONE.)
No matter how good the stock may

grela Poultry OF the farm, as a rule,
receives Indifferent treatment.
What does care mean? 1t means
q close watch on the business all
round. 1t provides every comfort,
prevents disease by keeping the prem
ises perfectly clean, never overcrowds'
and keeps the fowls busy, sorts out
the drones and gives the workers bet
ter attention. In short, care" means
using business principles in every
sense of the word.
The farmer is net giving the proper
care when he allows his fowls to o
on trees, in wagons, wagon sheds, or
on the board fences. The proper care
is not given if the appetites and con
diticns OF the fowls are not studied.
System and regularity play an i'm
portant part in care. Economy IN
labor, the saving of steps, the saving
Of muscles, the saving Of time-all are
important.
Shiftlessness causes expensive ex
periences. There is sure to be profit
In anything we take car Of. Success
Is accorded to management. Profits
depend upon the quality and quantity
Of brain work put into the enterprise.
If a man performs his work in a
mechanical way he will not be apt

who go by luck" They do not stop
to think. They do not take notice OF
the little matters. They are always
h%urrying to get done.
1t is said quality makes prices, but
1t costs considerable labor and brains
to make quality. Good management
curtails expense. Successful poultry
men use good common sense methods,
some others but little method, and
alas, some not Il method ct all.
Hard luck is generally brought
about by mismanagement. Disorder
creates disgust. Study and care, and
not luck and big talk, are the elements
Of success.

The men who make the marked sue
cess in poultry raising are those
who never flag in their attention
those who know that the increased
labor and close attention hot weather
brings must be religiously observed,
the same being the case when the
cold weather is with is. 1t is the
man or woman behind the hen rather
than the breed that brings success.
Scrub treatment will bring about

is the one hat is best cared for. Zeal

be the characteristic OF every poultry
breeder.
In conclusion, it must not be for

PUBLIC SHARING THE BURDEN
Has Been Largely Shifted From
Private Purses.

Out OF nearly $50, 600, 900 spent last
year In the treatment and prevention
Of tuberculosis in the United States,
69.3 per cent. Of the money was de-
rived from public funds, either fed
eral, state, county or municipal. These
are some of the interesting figures Civ
en- IN the annual statistical statement
Of the National Association for the
Study and Prevention of tuberculosis.
The statement is based largely on ac-
sual reports received from anti-tuber-
culosis agencies throughout the coun-
try. but where reports were not avail
able the figures have been estimated.
Treatment of tuberculous patients in
the nor than 500 sanatoria and hos
pitfalls Of the country and the cGnstruc-
ton Of such institutions cost over $751;
100000 of the total expenditure. Care
Of patients in dispensaries and open
Air schools cost about $685. 00. Anti
tuberculosis associations and commit
tees spent nearly $4,000 in further
.ng their work of organization and edu-
~tation, while state and local boards of
health and special tuberculosis com
missions spent over $685. 00.

pure water is seldom found with
parasites, the worst enemy with which
We contend.
The third essential is feeding. The
writer, says an exchange, has OBJ
tanned the best results by feeding hay
and clover mixed. The sheep like
this very much, and If the mixture
is put into the barn In good shape
they will more than thrive on 1t.
Sheep relish a good corn fodder, and
it should be given to them at least
once a day.
About six weeks before the ewes
are due TO lamb they should be fed

have a large middle and a strong con-
stitution to insure the best results.
She must also have a large udder,
large milk wells, large crooked milk
veins and good-sized teats.
Her head should be clean and an
gular in appearance, with the eyes
standing out prominently. The neck
should be rather long and lean; the
shoulders pointed and the backbone
rather prominent. The skin should be
loose and soft to the touch. In select
ing herd bulls either mature animals
which have already demonstrated
their worth az sires or younger ami
mails from high-testing dams and sires
only should be used.
The best and surest results will
always follow the use Of a mature
sire which has sired heifers with
good records. A good dairy bull
should be kept until he is twelve or
fifteen years old; in fact, as long as
he is a SURE sire. Real good sires are
so rare that when we do find one he
should die only of old age.
All breeders of dairy cattle should
secure yearly tests on each and every
COW ID the herd. Shorter tests do net
really mean very much. 1t is the COW
that stays by her job that is really
valuable.

TO AVOID STRAWBERRY LOSS

Failure to get a good stand Of

neglect Of the plants when they ar

irving in perfect condition may be
ruined by careless handling before
planting.
Packages of strawberry plants
should be opened as soon as received,
and the plants "heeled-in" by being set
in soil in q location protected from sun
and wind.
Heeling-in Is accomplished by spad-
ing up the soil. pulverizing it. and
making a broad V-shaped trench about

eight inches deep. The plants are
then distributed along the trench just
far enough apart to allow the root sys-
tenn OF each to come fully in contact
with the soil. The trench is then re-
filled and the soil compressed, care
being taken that the crowns are not
covered o the upper parts of the
roots exposed. Plants may be kept in
this way for some time without being
injured. Varieties should be labeled
properly.
