How 10 Live,

It is the h"-dest thing to live Just
the right way on this green earth.
For instance, here Is one Of Thomas
Davidson's twenty maxims, BE on
earth what good people hope to be
In heaven" that is. be without flaw.
But II 1t were possible. and one saw
wherever he went what Is good be-
cause he himself Is good. this old
world would change to heaven imme-
diately-to him. So the way for one
to be happy. rich, noble, pure. honest.
brave, true, calm and all the other
virtues is just to start little heaven
ON his own account and fill 1t full OF
his own beautiful life. People will
laugh at this idea, but 1t is all as prac-
teal as picking up a stone or break
Ing a stick. The great sin of this
world is putting off to heaven what
IAN be done on earth.---Columbus CO.,

DAIRY

Many farmers who do not own hand

frequently make q mistake In their
management. of the cow and calf,
where the calf Is allowed to suck the
COW.
We know Of numerous instances IN
which some farmer, for some reason
or other, turned the calf out with the
COW. Sometimes this is done as q mat
ter Of convenience for a few days; or
It may be done where one has so many
cows to milk that they cannot be at

small quantity of milk that tho farmer
turns the calf out with her, expect
ing to take her up ~ q profitable COW
at her next calving.
In any and all OF these cases, the
effect Is generally ruinous. The cow
grows accustomed to being with her
calf, and IL she Is separated from 1t

hour of milking, there IL at once q

LITTLE ESSENTIALS
FOR The DAIRYMAN
Many Cows Being Deceived by
Man-CardinaI Factors in
Dairy Cleanliness.
(By L NJ. BENNINGToN.)

(By La M. BENNINGTON.)
Lucky Is the man who leads IN
quality.
The important part of milking is to
get 1t all.
The man and the cow are the twins
Of the dairy business.
There are as many cows being de-
ceived by men as there are men being
deceived by cows.
There is some affinity between a
good dairyman and a good COW.
BY cooperation with the dairy cows
men can achieve wonderful results on
the farm.
More fresh air and less "hot air. are
needed in the dairy business.
Every SILVER Of the COW shakes dol
lars out Of her owners pockets.
There is good money in raising good
cows to SELL
Put every acre Of land to work. Idle
acres like dry cows, eat up the profits.
Common sense, favored with love
for the COW, will insure success in the
dairy business.
Sunlight, fresh air and hot water
are cardinal factors in cleanliness.
Close cropping of pastures is very
Improbable.
A good dairy COW must be intelli-
gent, courageous and gentle.
Great lung capacity is essential to
high production.
A box stall should be part OF the
furniture of every well-regulated COW
stable.
Every dollar. every effort, spent in
soil Improvement will bring large and
compromising interest.
The easiest way to prevent disease
is to remove the cause.
For the lands sake, and the i'm
provement of the ration, grow plenty
Of clover and alfalfa.

HONEY IS LOOKED
UPON AS A LUXURY
Every Farm should Have Compile
ment of From One to Half
Dozen Hives of Bees.

Honey Is looked upon too often as
a luxury. 1t ia true that honey. es-
pecially comb honey, is q delicacy in
that it takes the place of jam and jel-
ly. In Europe, however, honey is
household article and Is used to a
considerable extent to replace sugar
in cookery. The claim Is made that
it is a comparatively simple matter
to substitute honey for sugar or mo-
lasses in many recipes and that the
resulting flavor is often novel and
pleasing. Icing made with honey in
stead of sugar will keep soft and fresh
for months, and cakes, especially those
in which butter is not used, have been
kept fresh for several months.
The United States department of
agriculture has made rather extern
sive investigation concerning the use
of honey, and has just published
Farmers Bulletin 653, Honey and Its
Uses in the Home, which may be Sc
cured for the asking. This bulletin
not only contains much general in
formation concerning honey, its
forms, method or making ana keep
ing, but also contains many recipes in
which it constitutes an important In
gredient
Comb honey is practically certain to
be pure because the processes by
which it is adulterated cost more than
they will save. Formerly there was
a very prevalent idea that extracted
honey. that is, honey removed from
the comb, was often adulterated.
However, recent legislation regarding
adulterating food materials has been
such that very little, If any, adulter-
ated honey finds it's way to market.
1t is not necessary, however, for
farmers to depend on buying honey,
because every farm should have Its
complement of from one to a half
dozen hives of bees.
