find one worked until he is an old

sometimes see a farm boy growing
up too idle. Some suitable, RESPONSE

will do better work if he is given

CREAMERY DEMOXSTRA-

Because every community in Iowa
is interested in butter and cheese
production, working creamery will
be operated ait the Iowa State COL
lege building at the state fair this
year, and demonstrations will be
given on ALTERNATING, ice cream
making, soft cheese making and
pasteurization of milk for the home
as well as for the factory. "A spec

processes of manufacturing, while
students and one of the college
teachers will be busily engaged in
making the various dairy products

SENATOR CUMMING
AT HIGHLAND PARK

That the difficult of government
in the United States is greater now
than ever before, was the major pre-
mise of the address by Senator B..
Cummins at the commencement of
Highland Park college here last
night. He said that governmen is
now confronted with problems of
attempting to control and regulate
business in the United States to re-
strain the excuses of avarice and
selfishness and curb the power of
men in combinations of great wealt'
His other premise was that these
conditions require that the entire
citizenship of the country have an
exhaustive knowledge of CONNER
cial and industrial life as we'll as
the highest ideals Of business and
fairness. He emphasized that the
same peculiar methods by which
Highland Park college makes men
and women successful selfishly in
their life work would fail if it did
not also train them to grapple with
the forces of organized society. The
address evidently was supplemental
to Senator Cummin's recent speech
in Kansas.

THIS SCAPEGOAI WAR

1t does seem sort O. queer to me
That this big war across the sea,
So many thousand miles away,
Should be affecting every day
Such people here in Lonely town
AS me and Sue and MANDY Brown.
When asked for an Easter hat,
Bill said mustn't think of that
Just now, this war makes living
. high.
Perhaps I'D get it by and by;
And yst Bills income from the store
Is bigger than before the war
Amanda Brown gave up her trip,
Unpacked the things she'd in her
grip.
Because this war had tied UP tight
ALI ready cash that was in sight;
Sam goes to- town when he's a mind
Or further yet, if he's inclined.
Though Susan Smith has hunted
round
Until at last she's really found
"A way to make her carpet last
Until this dreadful war is past,
Jake's barn got painted just the
same
AS if there were no war to blame.
Our men folks understand, tbs
plain,
This war, but still they don'tE ex-
plain
Why Mandy Brown and 1 and Sue
Can't get a single thing that's new,
While they do as they did before
There ever was a scapegoat war.

FOR THE LOVE OFT

For the love of the thing"-that il
the secret of many success. 1t is
so in the case of James Butin, the Bird
Man. His love for birds led him to .
study of their habits and song. When
he comes to our Chautauqua with the
Symphony Players it is said that he
will get up early in the morning to
hear our own birds sing, and will re-
produce their song FOR us from the
platform. Natural scientists pronounce
his bird limitations to be perfect; and
the birds must think them so, for they
answer his call freely, always Every
one will enjoy his bird limitations, and
his beautiful whistling solos with Or
chestral accompaniment, but especially
every boy and girl should hear his
talk about the birds, their habits and
song. Mr.. Butin's brilliant success on
last seasons Chautauqua platform
warrants us in thinking that he will
be one of the most pleasing and long
est-remembered attractions on this
seasons program.
In the Symphony Players Mr.. Butin
has most admirable support. This or

GOOD YEAR TO
BUILD S|LOS

This year, of all years, is a good
time for the farmer who feeds live
stock to build a. silo, according to
the animal husbandry department.
of Iowa State college. There is
prospect of much soft corn and
that can be. utilized best as, silage.
In TACT, the silo is the only form of
insurance that the farmer can COM
mand to protect himself against
considerable corn crop loss in such
a backward year ais this.
LAS to the feeding value of ST.
lage there lis no question. That
has been demonstrated in numer-
GUS tests at the agricultural exper-
iment station at Ames and on many
Iowa farms Beef cattle fatte,ned
with silage in the ration regularly
show the largest profit, and dairy

silage. TWenty-four farmers i'm Clin-
ton county reported on their silo
experience ito the county agricul-
tural agent, M. L. lMosher show
ing an average annual profit per ST.
10 amounting to $360.4S. These far
mers, through their silos, made a
profit of from $25 ITO $50 per acre
ON the corn used above price of
60 cents per bushel The average
profit on each ton of silage fed was
nearly $3.50. Better than all this,
in year like the present, the far
mer with silo is sure to have goo
feed for his livestock; the man with

KEEPING SAFE
IN THE sun

The harvest days of August are
hot-very hot-and it is a season
when the work is rushed, espec-
tally in the threshing field. Every
year the sun gathers its toll. Every
year the heat victims, whether a
result of sunstroke or heat eXhaus-
ton, must suffer. Many are stricken
dead instantly, others are made i'll,
weakened or made natural sub
ject for other strokes. And many OF
these cases are the result of lack
of knowledge in the treatment of
either sunstroke or. heat exhaustion.
Sun or heat stroke is result of
the direct rays of the sun. Heat eX-
haustion is not. ct: may be brought
about through any kind heat. The
first often proves instantaneous and
fatal. 1t, however, has its treat
ment. The later is not so often fa-
tai but i'll results too often follow
improper treatment. Each of them
have their danger warnings and
may be avoided if the signals are
observed in time.
The first symptoms of sunstroke
are usually dizziness. and sense
OF oppression. The breath comes rap
i'd and irregular and the body tenn
perature climbs rapidly. The body
seems afire The skin is hot and
dry, the pupils of the eyes contract
as the condition. becomes worse.
Heat exhaustion is marked by a
general collapse. The skin instead
of being hot and dry, is cool and
moist and clammy The earlier symI
toms of heat exhaustion are us
ually an uncertainty of vision, dir
illness and the checking or stopping
of perspiration. Man notices these
in animals.
"A horse that does not sweat in
hot weather is unfit to work. Man
is apt to unhitch the horse when
this symptom appears, but prone
to keep going if the same symp-
toms show in himself. He, has the
idea that his superior intelligence
will enable him to come safely
through the danger. This is pool
policy and no work is important e
nough to cause any man to take the
risk.
In case of sunstroke the frs
step is to make the sufferer az
comfortable as possible withou
attempting to move him any consid
cradle distance and to reduce tn
body temperature. This can be &C
complished by applications of ic
or very cold water to the head ant
spine. Raise the patients hea,
slightly and remove any tight cloth
ing. Let him rest as much as posi-
BILE and if his condition does no
improve and half-conscious stupo
continues, call a physician. 1t i
important that the temperature b

On the other hand, heat eNhaus

toms and treatment. The bod
should be rubbed dry. Rubin

An anecdote Of especial interest in
these piping times of war is told at
the expense of Mr.. Ord Bohannan, the
noted ChautauQua singer and enter
tainer, who will appear on our Chau-
fauqua program this summer with his
wife, the well-known composer organ
fist and pianist,
Several years ago Mr.. Bohannan was
engaged to sing grand opera roles at
the Stadt Theater, in Kiel, Germany,
which is the headquarters of Deutch-
lands belligerent navy, therefore a
frequent resort of Emperor Wilhelm.
Mr.. Bohannan took dip in the sad
sea waves one balmy September after
noon (not "morn") and felt SO hungry
afterward that he could not wait for
the regular hotel dinner hour, but
dropped into an MISUNDERSTANDING
restaurant on the shore.

A CORN COUNTRY

If Colquitt county was shut off
from cotton entirely as a money crop
aud forced to fall back on corn, we
still would have good chance. Corn
is as easily made as cotton. Probably
more so. Negroes can make corn.
White tenants can produce corn. The
II, lands and the lowlands and the
hill sides will all grown corn. Corn
will stand hot weather, cool winds,
dry weather and wet weather. There
IS seldom any trouble in getting
stahd of corn, there is never
dearth of labor in making it or in
harvesting it, and very rarely do we
have a fall in which there is not suf
tcient good wather for harvesting
corn
The boys, of Colquitt county who
have been members of the corn club
this year. encountered what is con-
ceded to be the worst conditions for
h.NNihSS WIN VIC HdNC udu III tcIl
years. and still they made an aver
age of more than forty bushels of
corn per acre. 1t Is possible to grow
lcgumes with corn and keep up the
land. and it would require much less
commercial fertilizer to make corn
than is required to make cotton. Be-
sides two additional crops may he
beans. They are both valuable crops
and both improve the soil
If we had it to do we could make
corn protitably. 1t is already one of
orr pro stable feed crops, though it
is depended on very little for money

EUROPEAN NEWS AND NOTES

London, Oct. 22-The criticism o.
the British Government regarding
the Balkan situation and the subse-
quent controversy which has follow
cd between friends and foes of the
present ministry has, for time, at
least, overshadowed the CONSUMPTION
arguments. Representatives of the
Allies on all hands admit that this is
one of the most serious moments of
the entire war and it is reported that
sutie very frank messages have been
sent from commanders at the front
10 the effect that controversies nuts
cease the action taken If the war is
tic be brought to a speedy end. On
the other hand the Teutonic allies
are concentrating their forces with
sreater efficiency than ever and de-
rlaIe that their hope of victory was
never so firm as now.
While much has been said and
written about the activities of the
wives of the rulers of nations engag-
I'd in the great European conflict.
practically nothing has been heard
of the Czarina of Russia. Yet it may
be stated with absolute authority
that MAJESTY is much improved in
health and intensely interested in
the result of the war. II is because
CT her susceptibility to nervous at
tacks that she is not allowed by the
Car to participate in the various ac-
tivities headed by Russia's royal
ladies for the relief of war victims,
though she has given generously to
the various funds.
Experiments are being made in
teaching poultry farming to soldiers
who have lost their sight. A group
of fifteen blinded soldiers who have
been receiving instruction from a
POULTRY expert were taken recently
by Capt. Pierson Weber, who him
self lost his sight In the Boer War.
