the team is in good shape, considering
the bad weather it has encountered.
Although two twirlers, Mumford and
Johnson, have a larger batting average,
Milan is the real leader, with an average
of Az in ten games. having averaged
very nearly two hits to game. Henry
has shown improved form with the stick
and should be a help to the team dur

PREVENT SCOURS IN CALVES
Body of Young Animal Soon
After It's Birth.

(By c. H. ECKLES, Missouri Experiment
Station)
One kind of scours is an infectious
disease which gains access to the body
Of the calf soon after birth through
the freshly broken navel cord. 1t usu-
ally occurs within week and often
within 4S hours after the calf is born,
and runs its course quickly. The
symptoms are sudden, severe sickness,
sunken eyes and usually a white, foul
smelling dung. If one calf has be-
come infected others are liable to con-
tract the disease and die in the same
manner. 1t is important to thoroughly
disinfect box stalls where calves are
dropped and have them well bedded
with clean straw. 1t Is always a good
plan to disinfect the navel cord when
the calf is born and, if there is reason
to suspect they might contract the dis
ease, extra precautions should be
taken, such as smuggling the cord with
a hot iron, which stops up the opening,
or to tie the end of the cord with
string and wrap a strip of cloth
around the calls body A mild solu-
ton Of creolin, zenoleum or carbolic
acid should be applied to the cord as
disinfectant.

1891 he was not only editor, but part
owner.
He worked like Trojan. Locomo-
tive Engineering had steam up all the
time. 1t made such speed financially
that three years after he bought it he
and his partner were able to buy the
American Machinist. Next year he and
his partner separated, his partner TAX

taking the American Machinist. Since
then he has gone it alone. In 1902 he
bought Power, a monthly publication
that was comparatively old, having
| been established in 1880 and having a
very fine reputation. He paid $780,
900 for it, That was the highest price
ever paid up to that time for trade
journal.
Then he bought the Engineers Re-
view of Cleveland and the Engineer Of
Chicago, merged them with Power and
made Power a weekly.
By this time he had become big
figure in the mechanical and engineer
ing world. But he was only getting
into his stride. In November, 1906, he
paid more than 100000 for the En-
cheering and Mining Journal, which
was older than Power, having been es-
tablished in 1866. In 1911 he started
Coal Age, taking the coal department
out of Power The same year he
bought Engineering News, paying the
highest price on record up to that time
for that publication-$1, 100000.
Growth Of His Enterprises.
With buying and merging great
properties his field Of expansion was
not sufficient. In 1911 he started an
English concern for the printing of an
English edition of the American Ma
chinist. In 1910 he started Maschinen-
bau in Berlin. Maschinenbau Is the
German edition of the American Ma
chinist. In 1909 the McGraw-Hill
Book company was formed. This was
a consolidation of the book depart
ment of the McGraw Publishing com
pany and the Hill Publishing COM

leges and universities and scientific
books without number.

Became Expert Printer.
When he was fourteen he got job
in a printing shop in Black Earth,
Wis. He took naturally to types and
presses. When ne had been in the
shop a year and a half or two years
he knew as much about the establish
ment as the people who owned it.
When he was sixteen he went to Chi
cago, commissioned to buy a complete
printing outfit for the firm. When he
was seventeen he was foreman. He
stayed in the printing business until
he was nineteen. Then he bought
half interest in little machine shop.
He always had been interested in me-
chanics He loved to tinker about
boilers and fywheels and engines, and
he could take anything apart, whether
it was a watch or stationary engine,
repair it and put it together again.
That machine shop was just to his
liking and he and his partner had a
fair amount of business and excellent
prospects. He had been in business
for himself for about year when one
day, in 1878, a friend who had gone to
Leadville at the time of the first ex-
element in that great camp, wrote
him one of those letters that make the

PROFIT IN CAREFUL FEEDING
Common Cows Capable Of Producing
Much Larger Yield Than Secured
by Ordinary Methods.

(By T. L. HACKER, Minnesota Expert
ment Station)
From careful investigation we find
that our common cows are capable Of
producing much larger yield than is
secured from the average common COW
in the state. During the past decade
we have always had at the Minnesota
university farm, in the dairy herd, a
number of common cows; that is, cows
with no dairy heredity,
The average yield from these COM
mon cows, for % yearly records, Is
5000 pounds Of milk and 222 pounds
of butter; which last, valued at 27
cents per pound, is equal in round
numbers to $50 for butter alone. The
average receipt per common COW in
the state is $46.4O; which shows that
the average COW is yielding $14 less
per annum than she might easily yield
If given the same care and feed as are
given the cows at university farm.

AS TO MAKING CAKES
EXPERT ADVICE FROM DEPART.
MENT OF AGRICULTURE.
Cases Where Rendered Dsef or Veal
Fat May Be Substituted for But
ter-lntroduelng Variety Into
the CONNECTIONS.

There are, generally speaking, only
two kinds of cake made by the Ameri-
can housewife; namely, sponge cakes
and butter cakes. The former never
have butter in them and are frequent
ly raised entirely by means of eggs.
The eggs usually provide the only
moisture used, but when eggs are ex-
pensive, economy sometimes demands
that water be added and baking pow
der used. In the latter kind butter
is generally used on account of its
flavor. Its effect on dough is to make
it tender and brittle instead Of tough
and elastic
Sponge cakes are mixed differently
from butter cakes and should be
baked in a cooler oven and about
one and one-fourth times as long
The tests and rules for baking are
the same for sponge cakes and butter
cakes.
Gingerbread and other highly spiced
cakes may be classed as but
ter cakes" but for economys sake
pure rendered beef or veal fat may
be substituted for butter as the flavor
of the fat will not be so evident as IN
other kinds of cake.
A cooky also comes under the
class of butter cakes" any butter
cake recipe being applicable to cookies
if only one-third to one-half the
amount of milk called for is used.
The dough should be rolled out on a
Toured board. Cookies should bake
in a slow oven for to 10 minutes.
Much variety can be made in cakes
by introducing fruits, nuts, spices or
different fiavoring extracts into the
dough, or by using only the whites OF
eggs for white cakes, or larger num-
Der of yolks than whites for yellow
cakes. Brown sugar may be used for
dark fruit cake.
Pastry -four will make lighter and
more tender cake than standard flour.
If standard -four is used take two
tablespoonfuls less for each cupful
measured. In making cake only fine
granulated or powdered sugar should
be used as rule One the best of
these materials in any case should
be employed.
In preparing the pans for cake they
should be creased we'll with butter or
lard or lined with paraffin paper.
Bright, new pans will not need to be
buttered for sponge cakes and if left
unbuttered a more delicate crust is
formed.
If wood or coal fire is used there
should be a small or moderate-sized
fire, but one that will last without
much addition through the baking.
Regulate the oven long enough be-
fore the cake is to go in to have the
hampers adjusted as they are to re-
main throughout the baking. If this
is not done the hampers must be
changed to regulate the heat during
the baking, and the cake will not be
so we'll baked. Most cakes can be at
once removed from the pan when
baked, but very rich cakes and dark
fruit cake will be liable to break un-
less allowed to stand about five min
utes.

blood of adventure run riot in the
veins of youth. The man in Leadville
pictured what Hill could make in the
mining camp as a machinist. 1t was
fabulous. Nothing like 1t In the way
of pay had been dreamed Of by the or
binary machinist.
Hill read the letter over just once
Within an hour he had sold out his
half interest in that machine shop
That night at nine o'clock he was on
his way to Leadyille.
Success and Failure.
His friend had not overdrawn the
picture very much. Hill went to work
putting up machinery in the mines. He
worked all sorts of hours installing
pumps, boilers, etc. He did the work
of two men and the gold rolled in on
him. 1t was glorious while it lasted
But after a year in Leadville he had
the mining craze as bad as anyone. He
went off on an expedition across the
mountains into western Colorado pros
pecting. He hunted for gold and he
hunted for silver. He did not get
either, but he spent all the money he
had earned in all those days Of hard
toll in Leadville.
In the fall when the snow was in the
mountain passes and things were look
ing very bleak for him, he drifted into
Pueblo and got a job firing an engine
on the Denver & Rio Grande railroad.
He was a fireman for year and then
he was promoted to be engineer. From
the latter part Of 1880 until 1885 he
handled an engine on the Rio Grande.

Canyon of the Arkansas that Is not as

The Double Header.
1t is all very well to run a locomo-
tive in scenic paradise, but 1t will
not do for an ambitious man. The
things Hill had read In the books
Mrs. Mann furnished to him had awak-
ened his soul and he wanted to give
expression to some of the thoughts
he had in his mind. Most of these had
to do with the affairs that were imme-
diately before him-the railroad, the
locomotive, the men. He left the Den
yer & Rio Grande and started a little
paper in Pueblo which he called the
Double Header. The title was a
happy one. 1t took two engines to
take a train of few cars up the ter
rife grade of the Grand Canyon, and
1t took two engines, also, to hold the
train from running away when COM
ing down the hill.

Then, as he was to get out this pa
per twice a week, it was a double
header on that account. The engineer
editor got out five or six issues Of the
Double Header and then he turned it
into a daily under the name of the

thing in a news sense and he had a
high reputation as an advertising So
licitor. Yet the Pueblo Daily Press
was rather sickly. Hill ran it for nine
or ten months, then he sold out and
went back on the Denver & Rio
Grande as an engineer. For nearly
two years he pulled the throttle over
the mountains. At the end of the
division he usually sat down and did
a bit of writing. He wrote mighty
well and the things he wrote about he
knew thoroughly.
Bought American Machlnist.
One day he got letter from the
owners of the American Machinist,
which was published in New York.
Many of the articles he had written
had been sent to this publication and
the owners had been impressed so
that they wanted to see him. They had
decided to start a railroad magazine
called Locomotive Engineering. After
a conference with Hill, they asked him
to be its first editor. He accepted
and assumed his duties on January l,
1888. He made the publication go. He
was its editor for three years. Then
he made a proposition to its owners

The CHARM
OF MOTHERHOOD
Enhanced By Perfect Physi-
cal Health.

The experience of Motherhood is try
ing one to most women and marks dis
tinctly an epoch in their lives. Not one
woman in hundred is prepared or I'M
derstands how to properly care for her
self. OF course nearly every woman
nowadays has medical treatment at such
times, but many approach the expert
ence with an organism untitled for the
trial of strength, and when it is over
her system has received a shock from
which it is hard to recover. Following
right upon this comes the nervous strain
of caring for the child, and distinct
change in the mother results.
There is nothing more charming than
happy and healthy mother of children,
and indeed childbirth under the right
conditions need be no hazard to health or
beauty. The unexplainable thing is
that, with all the evidence of shattered
nerves and broken health resulting from
an unprepared condition, and with am
pie time in which to prepare, women
will persist in going blindly to the trial.
Every woman at this time should rely
upon Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound, a most valuable tonic and
invigorator of the female organism.

London, Nov. 2O-The spread of oifi-
cial news by wireless broadcast over
the globe for whosoever can pick 1t up
is a new method of political propa-
ganda which has been introduced dur
ing the present European war.
When the German-owned Atlantic
cables were cut, and Germany's inter-
course with the outer world and with
some of her colonies by English and
French routes was stopped, the Ger
man high power wireless began send
ing out news destined primarily for
the United States and for German col
onies. 1t was picked up, however, by
various wireless stations operated by
different systems in countries every
where within its radius, which is a
wide one, extending from Germany to
the American shores of the Atlantic.
In England the daily German bulletins
have been intercepted and distributed
TO the British press after passing
through the hands Of the censor.
H.tn the British and French govern
men:s concluded that it would be good
policy to combat this German wireless
news campaign by spreading reports OF
their own through the same agency.
Accordingly, the French are now send
