speak on dairying and allied subjects.
including the cows diseases, was well
attended on Monday evening. The
gathering came about because of local

were used in national and state super
vision and for half an hour spoke on
the rules and questions that were
adopted officially in many quarters.
He told of how the barn should be con-
structed, how kept clean, how milk
ing by hand and machinery was done
inin uptodate diaries, how milk should
be cooled prior to delivery and a
thousand and one things. The audi
ence of so citizens, ladies and gentle
men in about even number, were much
interested. An examination of milk
from several local supply points, dis
closing the loose dirt, it any, was a
feature all watched with care-and it
was to the credit Of the dispensers of
milk that they were up, Mr.. Green
wood said, to usual standard-and
even better Mr.. Greenwood answer
ed many questions.
Following Mr.. Greenwood, DR.. E. D.
Harris, Casselton's local veterinarian,
spoke at length on diseases Of the cow.
particularly on tuberculosis. All who
were present took great interest in
what both speakers had to say and re-

Babies Born
Faster Than
Soldiers Die

Chicago Nov. 10. - "Germany's
strongest arm is her women. Ger
mans are being born six times as
fast as they are being killed. Ger
many's supply Of soldiers cannot be
exhausted with such birth rate"
Hudson Maxim, inventor of rapid
fire guns and gun silencers, author Of
"Defenseless America" and advocate
Of extreme military preparedness for
the United States, made the above
statement yesterday as he passed
through Chicago.
"Germany's mothers are only a cog
in the wonderfully efficient machine
with which the Teutonic allies have
been able to surprise the world" he
said, "but the mother cog has been
one of the most important ones for
Germany.
German efficiency is the greatest
fact that future histories will relate.
That efficiency has been based pri-
marily on conscription-universal mil
itary service. 1t makes for patriotism
because we love those we serve.
''This war should bring home to
America her pitiful lack Of defenses,
and further still ought to convince
Chicago of the important part it has
to play in the future development Of
our national defenses.
Almost 80 per cent Of our NUM-
ton plants, shipbuilding plants, navy
yards and government storehouses are
located within a radius Of 200 miles
around New York, where they could
be captured in two weeks intensive
campaign by a prepared, efficient
enemy.
''These plants, which in time of
war, would have to feed the muscles
of our fighters, should be located
around the country in all sections, so
that the loss of any one section would
not make it impossible for us to keep
up the fight.
"Chicago, by reason of its wonder
full rail and water communications, is
one of the logical centers for nation.
wide chain of arsenals, explosive
plants, cartridge factories and store
houses. l should say that Detroit
would rank next.
THE paciicists claim that war is the
result of over preparation. The ex-
act opposite is true. None of the
other nations was prepared. Germany
was the only one that had perfected
her plans of preparation years in ad-
vance. Furthermore, Germany is
spending all her money at home, which
distantly removes the prospects of ex-
haustion. When war came Germany
had more than 100000 machine guns
on hand For nine years she paid
British arms companies royalty on
500 machine guns a month. The Eng
lish failed to see the great use of this
weapon.
Il predict that the war will last
from three to seven years longer.
also think that the war will end in
draw. don't believe that either side
will come out of the war exhausted
economically or in men. I think they
will come out stronger in the end,
England may be poorer, but infinitely
more potential"

The PITY Of Self-Pity.

Self-pity is INDUCED in by most men.
Some more, some less. The human
mind is so constituted that under
certain conditions of stress, it turns
upon itself and says: You poor,
abused thing" The ruination which
is wrought by it appears in the fact
that when man pities himself he
does so for the very reason that ought
to lead him to self-condemnation. He
pities his weaknesses, rather than
reforming them. He coddles his in
tirmities, when they need to have the
punishment which pugilists give each
other No man ever pitied himself
when he is doing the hard things-we
mean, really doing them, While man
is being brave the thoughts of being
abused or ill treated are impossible
thoughts to him. The business man
who sits down, and while he holds his
face in his hands, bemoans: Il am
having a hard time. needs the dash
of that really cold water which ad-
versity always uses when she would
make strong man. Selfpity UNI
twists the fiber of which manly men
are builded Hard times make great,
robust, stalwart men-when the sub
stance is there to work on.-Bloom-
ington Journal.

INJURY TO THE PLUM BORER

quently found, however, on apple trees
which have suffered from collar blight.
In order to prevent infestation by
the American plum borer profess
sional paper of the United States de-
partment of agricultural, Bulletin No.
26l, recommends the precaution Of
cutting away the dead bark and paint
ing the wounded area on all injured
trees with any noninjurious tree paint.
After the borer has once established
itself the cutting-out method is the
only one that can be followed. When
the proper conditions are present the
plum borer can do considerable dam

LIFE OF BLACKBERRY ROOTS
After Fruitins Season Canes Should
Be Cut Out and Burned-Train
Plants on Wire TreIIis.

Blackberry roots live for many years
but the canes, excepting two varieties
bear only in their second year. After
the fruiting season, therefore, they
should be cut out and burned. The
one-yearold canes may usually be left
to themselves throughout the winter
Not more than three or four new
canes should be left to each plant,
however, and the others should be
thinned out at the same time that the
canes which have fruited are thinned
In some cases. it. will also be desir-
able to train the plants in order to
facilitate cultivation as well as to pre-
vent them being damaged by winter
SHOWS. A wire trellis may then be-
come profitable investment. The
simplest form of such trellis consists
of a single wire attached to posts set
at intervals of from fifteen to thirty
feet in each row of plants. The canes
are tied to this wire about two and
one-half feet above the ground.
Another method is to nail cross
pieces to the posts and stretch two
wires from the ends of these cross
pieces, which form a support for the
blackberry canes on each side. Varie-
ties that grow somewhat like a grape
vine require much higher trellis with
two wires; one about three and one
about five feet from the ground.

GOATS GAIN IN FAVOR
Within Last Few Years Industry
Has Assumed Prominence.
Animals are Useful for Several Pur-
poses-Skins Used for Leather
Fine Hair of the Angora Is
Known as Mohair.

Angora goats were introduced into
this country from Turkey about 1850,
and have been bred ever since in
different parts of the country in
small numbers. 1t is only within the
last few years, however, that the goat
industry has assumed especial prom
inence. According to recent census
statistics on this subject, there are
$4,000 goats in the United States.
About 100000 of these are Angoras,
the remainder being common goats.
Goats are useful for several pur-
poses. Their skins are used in the
manufacture of leather, or for rugs;
the fine hair of the Angora is known
as mOhair, and is used in the manu-
facture of the various dress goods
and pushes. The demand for mohair
in manufacture in the United States
Is much in excess Of the supply which
can be obtained from goats in this
country, and a. good market for this
product may be expected for a long
time to come.
The meat OF goats, especially An
goras, is eaten to large extent, be-
ing commonly sold under the name Of
mutton. and more recently bearing
the name of Angora venison, or An
CORA mutton. If the goats are we'll
dressed it has perhaps more de-
licious flavor than mutton, and seldom
has as much fat. In certain localities

DAIRY
FACTS
ONE COMMON DAIRY MISTAKE
Some Farmers Turn Calf Out With
Cow as Matter of Convenience
Effect Is Generally Ruinous.

Many farmers who do not own hand
cream separators, and several who do,
frequently make a 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 mat
ter of convenience for few days; or
it may be done where one has so many
COWS to milk that they cannot be at
tended to properly. Again, if 1t is

quently done because she gives such
small quantity of milk that the farmer
turns the calf out with her, expect
ing to take her up as 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
at weaving time, or even during the
hour of milking there is at once q
falling off in the milk flow, caused by
the change. In fact, such dairy COW
Is almost sure to go entirely dry with

"ALARM" THAT IS N0ISELESS
Yet the Invention May Be Relied
Upon to Awaken Even the
Soundest Sleeper.

Alarm watches that signal the time
for which they are set by shrill ring
ing are common, but "noiseless'
alarm watch which accomplishes the
same result is entirely new.
The story has been told of married
man who possessed ringing alarm
watch and who, with his wife, was
awakened every morning by the silvery
tinkle of the watch under his pillow.
1t took this mans wife five years, so
the story goes, to discover that the
alarm watch and not the neighbours
alarm clock was really awakening her
every morning The noiseless alarm
watch, however, performs its early
morning task differently. The noise
less alarm consists of cord which
tightens about the wrist, the pressure
gradually increasing until released by
the wearer of the watch. This is &C.
complished by pushing a small slide
and twisting the stem of the watch a
half turn.-World's Advance.
