PROPER TYPE is ESSENTIAL
Refers to Sheep Possessing Mutton
and Wool Observation-Disclosures
cure Purebred Ram.

Unity of type in the flock should be
the direct aim of every breeder. This
applies to grades as well as pure
breds, and refers to the selection of a
type OF sheep, possessing similar NUT
ton and wool characteristics With
pure breeds this feature is especially
important. In flock of sheep where
several types obtain, choice of a suit
able ram is most difficult. Besides,
disparity in this respect detracts from
the general appearance of the flock
and gives the buyer or casual OBJ
server an unfavorable opinion. writes
T. r. Arkell in Farm, Stock and Home.
Every breeder should aspire to pro-
duce a distinctive type. He should en-
deavor to breed a class of sheep pos
sessing characteristics that, wherever
the animals are. they will be recog-
nlzed as his breeding. But to attain
this he should never uphold some
fancy character in preference to util-
ity features. No feature should be
given undue prominence beyond an
other, especially one that is purely or
namental. The establishment of an
ultra form of some fashionable char
acteristic has at times become an OBJ
session with many breeders of pure
bred sheep, and this sin tfor it can
not be called anything else) must be
avoided The ultimate destination of
most purebred rams is at the head OF
grade tiocks, and their utility features
should only be taken into considera-
ton.

EXCLUDE AIR FROM THE SlL0
Prevents Formation of Aeetie Acid
Which Causes Feed to Sour
Cut in Short Lengths.

Packing the ensilage well improves
1t. 1t is the air in the ensilage that
spoils 1t, and the more air in it the
more acetio acid is formed. This is
the acid that mahUs it sour. The less
air the less acehc acid and the more
Tactic acid, which is the most desira-
BILE. The tramping in compacting
the ensilage leaves less room for air
and SC makes better ensilage.
Cutting the ensilage fine makes 1t
pack better. Half TO three-quarter-
inch lengths are the most satisfactory.

RED CROSS CHRISTMAS
SEALS

Red Cross Christmas Seals were
first put on sale in 1907, in the
single State of Delaware. The
The movement has since spread
over the entire country. As a
result, hundreds of associations
have been formed which are fight
ing tuberculosis in practically all
the states and territories. The
facts about tuberculosis have been
published widely; helpful laws
have been passed; hospitals,
dispensaries, open air schools
have been established; suffering
has been relieved and lives have
been saved.
The educational influence of the
Christmas Seals Campaign has
been as much responsible for this
as the money derived. Every
effort of the thousands of
volunteer workers to call atten-
ton to the seals even where nc
actual sale has been made every
display of the seals and advertis-
ing matter, every newspaper
notice, every sermon in church
and health-talk in school elected
by the seals, has counted in edu.
eating the community to guard
against tuberculosis.
The sale of the Christmas Seals
begins today. Thanksgiving

r. E. BUSELMEIER SALOON
CLOSES

r. B. Buselmeier's saloon closed
its doors last Saturday evening
and is no more. This leaves
seven licenses in the village
which will expire on the night Of
Dec. "a Christmas eve. There
is some wonderment as to why
the date is not Dec. ~, or just
six months after the date Of the
county option election. 1t is be-
cause the law does not specify
the date as six months following
the election, but rather, following
the filing of the certificate OF the
canvassing board. The Busel-
meier building is to be occupied
at once by the family theatre and
it is understood that most, II not
all, Of the other places are al
ready under lease for other busi-
ness when the licenses expire.
Mr.. Buselmeier served q chicken
bouillon in the hall above his
place, Saturday evening to sort
of wind up properly. The bouil-
lon was properly seasoned with
preservatives and the large
number who were in and out dur
ing the evening pronounced Il

Attendance has been quite
irregular of late on the part of
several pupils. In order to do
good work there must be regu-
larity in attendance. We some
time feel that pupils are kept out
for matters entirely too trivial to
justify such absence. Much of
the dislike for school work is due
to this factor of irregular
attendance; a boy or girls getting
behind the class is sufficient to
discourage even the most brave,

STURGEON Lake Hustler: Dur
ing the past season there has been
threshed in this vicinity more
than 100000 bushels Of grain,

modern self-feed b.ow-stacker Of

many who could not get enough
together to buy 4 few boards to
make a floor to fail out what
little they did get, and often had
to wait till freezing up time and
make clean place and cover It
with ice. Some folks think they
have hard time now, but look
back thirty years In any new
country. Be optimistic, we are
pretty comfortable but look ahead
at the better things to come.
The following report shows
some grain for a new timber
country: Cheslak & Sons thresh-
ed &c, 900 bushels; Street Brothers
