BIG MONEY IN SELLING
FARM PRODUCE BY MAIL

The live, alert business farmer new
er follows the groove as made by pre-
ceding generations, instead he carves
his way into new unapplied methods,
and generally he is well repaid for his
trouble.
We therefore address ourselves to
this class of men, who desire to sue
ceed by the most up-to-date methods.
The opportunities offered today by the
Parcel Post system and Express Com
panies to ship Eggs, Butter, Chicken,
Fruit and Vegetables direct to the con-
sumer If taken advantage of, will in
crease the cash income from ten to
twenty per cent, and in addition save
the trouble of taking the products to
market. 1t is much easier to hand
your shipments to the mail man at the
door than to be obliged to go to town
and make deliveries. Don't stop to
wonder il the consumer will pay you
more money, he is paying more money
today for less satisfactory products.
Do you not think that good, fresh,
palatable products direct from the
farm will tempt him to pay little
more and at the same time you can
promote his trade by charging consid-
erable less than he has been paying.
To the producer who has been TAX
ing his pay for butter and eggs in
groceries, this method of marketing
should make strong appeal for with
the cash obtained much better bar
gains can be had as evidenced by the
advertisements of thousands of con-
Germs Offering special inducements for
cash. In order to get sufficient
number of customers to take your
products put a liner ad for a few days
| in your nearest city paper within $50
miles or if near by the city go there
and make a personal canvass for GUS
toners or take the City Directory and
| pick out one thousand names and
write them letter, offering whatever
| you may have to sell, but more espe-
cially weekly shipments of Eggs, But
| ter, Chicken, Fruit and Vegetables.
Also write the POSTMASTER in the
nearest town and ask him to assist
you in getting customers. The only
drawback to the shipment by Parcel
Post has been the inability to get
satisfactory containers. This is not
a factor at the present time, as very
satisfactory boxes can be had from
the Hartley Steel Grated Box Co., of
Saginaw, Mich. They manufacture a
| large line, but make q Speclalty OF
mixed shipment box that is a Won

not conserve your best interests unless
you do go after all the profits tina
would naturally accrue to YOU from
the use of this service.

PUTTING UP ROSE LEAVES


Roses which are to be used for
confections should be gathered early
in the morning before the dew has
been dried by the sun.
Rose Flavoring-Rose favoring,
much used for candies and fine
pastries, is easily made by packing
rose petals as tightly as possible in
bottle and covering them with
enough fresh alcohol to submerge the
leaN es. Then cork the bottle and set
away for a few weeks.
A delicious syrup for puddings and
ice creams may be made by adding
rose extract to a simple sugar and
water syrup. Color it lightly with a
bit of cochineal and add enough
citric acid to acidulate it lightly.
Crystallized Roses-Another deli
cacy that tempts epicures is crystal
lized rose leaves. These are made by
separating perfect blossoms into
petals and spreading them on an in
yerted sieve to dry in the air. How
ever, they must not be allowed to be-
come so dry that they are crisp.
Then prepare heavy syrup of equal
parts of granulated sugar and water,
cooked without stirring until the
syrup will spin a thread. Flavor
with rose extract and color with
cochineal, Drop the leaves, one by
one, into the syrup, using fine wire,
and drain on creased sieve. Dry
for several hours.

the squares of toast and place large

According to recent experiments
by stanilas Tetrad, a widely known
French agriculturist, wheat and 9TH
er cereals can be protected against
the ravages of crows, which are par
ticularly fond OF the grain when Its
sprouts are just pushing above the
ground, by treating the seeds before
they are sown with mixture Of coal
tar, petroleum and phenic acid. This
treatment which delays the growth
of the seeed for q day or two, but
causes no damage, imparts an odor
which is insufferable to the crows,
but which disappears after the
sprouts have obtained a larger
growth, when they are no longer sub
ject to attack London Globe.

FARMERS WILL NOW
TILL SOIL BY MOTOR

Pana, IIl.-Charles Burns, farm
er, has completed motor plow which
he says will revolutionize the tillage
of ground. The plow is small, COM
pact machine, propelled by a gasoline
engine. The frame is made in two
parts so that corner may be turned
and all ground plowed.
Burns used an ordinary breaking
plow, the drive wheel from binder,
and the engine from the first auto
ever used in Momence Township, a
sixten horsepower. The plow turns
the earth five times as rapidly as a
horse propelled power.

PARIS

BY WALT MASoN-(From Judge.)
In that fair and wondrous city,
where our hats and dresses grow, life
is just a ragtime ditty free from
every shade of woe. So returning
tourists tell us, when they've jour
neyed DER the foam, and they make
us sore and jealous, since we're DOOM
ed to stay at home. Ah, we yearn for
life Partisan, for the gorgeous French
hotels! In our dreams we have a Wis
ion of the beauteous damozels, and we
hear the bands a-playing boulevardy
airs. Odds fish! Then we wake and
find we're staying here in Ypsilanti,
Mich.
Oh, that gay and giddy village,
where old Aleck Dumas wrote!
Where the brigands, bent on pillage,
SO politely take your goat that you're
glad to spend your dollars, and you
say, so help me, Maud, they are
gentlemen and scholars, and Pm glad
they swiped my wad!" There the
thing that is unpleasant is so beauti-
fully done. he would be q churl or
peasant who would kick at being
skun.
oh. the splendor and the glory of
that town appeal to NE! grow weary
of Empory when think of gay Paree!
Here in Kansas it is shocking how
we drag out dreary lives, and we
always set folks talking if we kidnap
neighbors' wives. Here we labor in
the daytime, and the day ends when
we sup over there the night is play
time, and by day they sober up. And
the hats girls wear in Kansas only
cost dollar each, and the man is
jugged who glances three times at
village peach; and wife will raise
quarrel if husband spends a dime,
and we're all SO beastly moral that
cigarettes crime So we often
long for Paris (you must here pro-
nounce the name just as though 1t
rhymed with Harris) and the glad
Partisan game. There the gentlemen
and ladies have some freedom, every
day, and the all can go to Hades In
their own delightful way; they can
wassail hold and revel, till King Death
says, "Mosey, now!" and they'll
doubtless greet the devil with a Ches.

THINGS WORTH KNOWING

Brush for Bread Pans-Use little
fve-cent brush for greasing bread
and cake pans, also for greasing the
bread when first taken FROM the oven.
This will save much time and the un-

greasy.

one kind on a safety pin. Place in

BY TY COBB
Worlds Champion All-Around
Player.)

The Detroit club, convinced of its
ability to carry off this years pen
nant honors, will keep a close eye
on the results of the first invasion
of the East by Western clubs Of the
American League. The Tigers. not
q whit apprehensive of themselves,
are, nevertheless, very anxious to de-
termine as soon as possible the
teams which are likely to prove most
troublesome SO that full pressure
may be directed that way.
OF consuming interest to Hugh
Jennings and the rest of us is the
probable bearing of the White SoN,
on their first long road jaunt. The
White Sox, which on form to date
figure to prove our most dangerous
rivals, have not the reputation for
doing their best work on the road.
Indeed, Chicago has always been con-
sidered home team; it has won a
great percentage of its games at
Comiskey Park. Though bolstered
by the great Eddie Collins, the
teams traditional home strength
and road weakness seems to have
prevailed so far this season. Three
quarters of the White Sox victories
that carried them out into the lead
after six weeks Of battling were ne
gotiated at home.
II. then, Chicago should come a crop
per on Its long road trip. ! think one
of Detroits most feared rivals would
be ditched temporarily, IL not perma-
nently. No team can grab a pennant
unless 1t wins approximately half of its
road games. What the Eastern clubs
showed the Western teams on their re-
cent visit must not be weighed too
seriously. 1t was impossible for the
visitors to show at their best. The
weather handicaps were too severe.
Naturally. the rain and cold affected
the Fasteners more than 1t did US Of
the middle West. We had opportunities
to get out and exercise on some Of tho
off days which they did not have.
There is little doubt in my mind,
though. that the East Is far less
formidable than it was a year ago.

Ing Yankees were possessed of such a
ealth of pitching strength that almost
every game was a battle to the death.
They had not the offensive strength to

their stone-wall defense, I can tell you.
