NO NEED TO SPEND 5000.

The charter revision convention isn't within
hailfng distance Of the $1200 estimated as
necessary expense, and there 81 ans no pros

either from the city or the territorial treasury.
The city attorney declares that If the super
Fisors vote the money they will be violating
their oaths of office, as their action would be
Illegal and contrary to the opinion rendered
to them; the attorney general holds that the
territory cannot legally foot the bill and has
advised the governor that he has no right to
meet it from the contingent fund. z554

LIVE STOCK AND DAIRY.

Each COWS uddcr should be thor.
oughly cleansed before milking, and
the hands of the mixer should be alb
solutely clean and dry.
The good dairy COW has capacity
for a tremendous amount of feed, and
this feed must be furnished her IL she
is going to yield the best returns.
1t is n well known fact that disease
is more prevalent among hogs just aft.
er they are started on new corn than
any other time
Hog sheds need not be expensive,
but they should be dry, tight enough
TO exclude rains and SHOWS and also
capable of being well ventilated in
summer when the weather is hot and
shade is needed.
Disinfcct all troughs ut least once Il
week. Don't let them become foul.
1t never pays TO feed lice. Keep
your pigs clean and free from pests and
they will grow faster

ADVANTAGES OF SIL0S.
Good Silaae Is the Best Meat and Milk
Producing Roughage Known.

Good Silase Is the Best Meat and Milk
Producing Roushage Known.
On account of the backward season
there will be a large amount of soft
corn unless the present damp summer
is followed by an unusually warm fall.
Soft corn means very serious loss TO
the farmer who depends on corn for
his cash crop. TO the dairy farmer
the loss is not great provided he has Il
silo. Corn that is oyertaken by frost
when in the milk stage will make a
fairly good quality of silage if it is put
into the silo at once.
This, according to w. Il. AIarkey of
the College of Agriculture of the Uni
versity of Wisconsin, is the pressing
reason for silo on every farm this
year. Several other silo reasons, how
ever, are enumerated by Mr.. Markey.
The silo furnishes succulent, palata-
bic feed of uniform quality that is al
ways near at hand. In addition to
high food value silage supplies succu-
,ence, which makes it easily digestible
and keeps the systems of the cows
toned up. This tends to provide June
conditions in the dairy in January and
results in fun milk flow
The silo preserves the corn crop with
the minimum amount of loss, as the
entire plano is made fit for food 1t
increases the number of cows that can
be kept on given number of acres
This has been estimated at double the
number possible without silo
1t economies space, time and build
Ing costs in storage. The entire crop
can be stored in short fine at a
relatively low labor cost in about one
third of the space rcquircd to.store an
equal amount of food value In the
form of hay. a. -Id1 no m
Silage makes the most economical,
convenient feed for supplemGni1ng
short pastures during n Deriod1 Of
drought. !, y silo equalizes the supply
OF feed by carrying it over in good
condition from one year to another,
Cases are on record where silage has
kept in perfect condition for several
years,
\ slo can be used for cnsiling clover
or alfalfa during spell of wet wealth
or when 1t would be impossible to cure
it for hay.

} RoTTlNc CLOVER IN FIELD

1t is n common practice for
farmers who grow clover for seed
; to allow the clover to rot for sew
= eral weeks after cutting before
|. they stack it or draw it to the
barn. Sometimes red clover cut
early is allowed to lie in the
: swaths or windows for six or
: eight weeks, exposed TO all kinds

stacks that are poorly construct
|, ed or unprotected frequently be-
= come wet and musty. Sometimes
!. in wet portions of the stack the
; clover will even become black
and largely decompose before the
seed is hauled. The result of this
! exposure is seen in the swelling
and sometimes termination of
: those seeds which are not pro-
tected by hard seed coats. Even
If the seeds do not terminate, if
once they have become thorough
: ly swollen. even though subse-
quently dried, they are of no val

The trouble with sugar in children's
diet is that it is usually eaten when
the child is not hungry or else between
meals At the end of hearty meal a
sweet dessert is superfuous. Between
meals eating of any sort, especially of
a highly concentrated food like sugar,
is injurious. Sugar piled thick on
cereal or fruit is harmful, not in it
ferment in those combinations. More
over, children like sugar so much that
if they are allowed to flavor all their
food with it they VIII lose a taste for
unsweetened foOd-naturally a deplOr-
able condition.

STORIES
FOR LITTLE
FOLKS
MRS. Table.

Mrs. Table awoke one morning
and found beside her four tiny kit
tens. At least she thought they were
four, but when she came back from
her breakfast in the kitchen, she
found only two kittens.
Il must have been mistaken" she
said, there are only two here"
When the kittens were large enough
to run about, and the weather was
growing cold, Mrs. Table took the
kittens into the house for the mis-
tress to see.
She took them into the room where
her mistress sat sewing and walked
UP to her. Meow" she said.
"Yes,' said her mistres, they are
very cunning, Table, and l hope you
will teach them to be as well behaved
as you are"
81 WILL" me-ow-ed Table.
One day, after the kittens were
large enough to catch mice, Table
was in the pantry and she saw a
mouse
She did not try to catch it, but let
it go into its hole, then she called her
kittens and made them sit in corner
of the pantry, and she sat back of
them.
Nov, watch that hole" she said; "a
mouse will run out soon, and if you
let it get away l shall punish you
severely"
The kittens knew she would keep
her word, and they sat down de-
termined to get the mouse at any cost
Presently the mouse put his nose
out of the hole, but as Table and the
kittens were behind basket, he did
not see them, and he ran out
Quick as a flash the kittens were
after him, and the mouse ran up the
side of the flour barrel. Get him,
urged Table from her corner.
The cover was off the barrel and il
went the mouse, but the kittens were
after him, and for a few seconds the
-four rose from the barrel like smoI-e
then one of the kittens appeared a.
the top with the mouse.
Table and the kitten ran out int
the Kitchen. The saints preserve us,
cried the cook, for both kittens were
white with the flour and left a white
path behind them.
Mrs. Table did not notice this, blu
she took her children and the nous,
in the room where her mistress wa
sitting. Look" she me-ow-ed, g
have taught them to catch mice"
But the mistress did not seem ap
preciative as Mrs Table expected he
to be, for she screamed and ran t
the door and made the kittens go out

San Francisco, Nov. 1.-THE Amer

Gently arrived at San Francisco with

years old, the child is the veteran of
the famous siege of Using Tau by the
Japanese, one of the most notable
events Of the war in the Far East.
When the attack began, shells fell
near the American consulate, and Mrs.
Peck took the child into the base
ment. A she'll clipped a hole in the
American flag over the consulate, and
another struck near the building, but
the war baby was uninjured.

but she smoothed Mrs. Table and
told her she was nice tabbie.
And Mrs. Table me-ow-ed that she
understood perfectly; her mistress did
not like the mouse, and she would not
let them bring one in there again.
Table told her kittens they were
old enough now to care for themselves,
for as soon as a kitten can catch
mouse" she told them, lit is beyond
needing a mothers care"

is well to consider the value of sugar
in children's winter diet.
Sugar is readily assimilated by the
system. Therefore, sugar taken as
food quickly gives a reaction in re
newed strength. Anybody doing much
muscular work Graves sweets. And
any woman who has relieved the ia
tigue of shopping by nibbling candy
by eating ice cream or some other
equally frivolous sweet will realize
that sugar supplies energy.

Montreal, Nov 1.-THE right of

practice of law in the Province of
Quebec has been denied by the Court
of Kings Bench, in dismissing the
appeal of Mrs. Annie Langstaff, who
asked for a writ of mandamus COM
polling the Bar Association to admit
her to the examination. In turning
down Mrs. Langstaff, and putting up
the shutters to bar the women from
practice of law, Justice Trenholme
who voiced the opinion of the major
ity of the judges in appeal, said in
part:
"By her sex alone, woman has al
ways been excluded from this profess
sion 1t is on that ground alone that
we think the appeal should be dis
missed. The contention that the mas
culine gender in the statutes includes
the feminine as well does not hold

study of law by women" Justice La

In the winter, when children live
much out of doors and need a big sup
ply of bodily heat, sugar can be util-
lied to supply it. This does not mean,
of course that a child's diet should
contain large amount of sugar. 1t
does not mean that candy should be
allowed whenever it is desired. 1t
does not mean that five or six spoon
fuls of sugar should be sprinkled on
the cereal.

crossing Death Valley. The place is
the lowest known spot in the United
States, being $50 feet below the sea
level In summer the heat reaches
130 degrees. The water-holes are few

A few pieces of candy as dessert are
not harmful. Neither is a sweet pud-
ding, if it is considered as part OF
the meal, not simply as a sort of trim
ming-and that is the way many of
us look on desserts. Just as adults eat
nuts after they have already eaten a
dinner too hearty for health, so do we
let our children eat sweets when the
appetites are already satisfied.
Remember, in choosing candy for
children that it pays to buy pure can
dy, or else make it. Sweet chocolate
is a good sort of sweet for them. A
small cake for luncheon is sure to be
liked and is rich in food value.

When Cupid Is Gagged
BY FLORENCE E. lOOER

A parrot of my acquaintance has
just died. He was a wonderful parrot,
bright green, and he originally came
from a sunny island on the west coast
of Africa Moreover, he was a most
intelligent bird, and knew how to fit
his language to his company. He
might have lived for many years more
if the maiden lady who was his pro-
tectress hadn't gone Off for a holiday
and left him in charge of the care
taker
Now, this caretaker didn't under
stand his constitution, and fed him on
all sorts of strange things, from the
richest candy to cigar-ends!
SO the other day ne just put his head
under his wing and turned in the game
of life. He was buried in the back
yard, and the maiden lady shed de-
spairing tears over his demise.
The parrot has set me thinking.
How many people there are who are
guilty of keeping pets and Of killing
them by kindness!
How many puffy puS-dOgs there are
overfed and underexercised until they
die of fatty degeneration! How many
sporting dogs there are who never feel
anything softer under their feet than
the hard pavement Of the town, and
who never scent a bird or rabbit unless
it be on the dinner table. In fact,
how many cruelties are perpetrated in
the kindest spirit? We are even cruel
to our plants, forgetting to water them
and setting them out in the grounds
during winter frOsts,
