"The Indian and the Government
The rooms were. decorated with In
dian relics and symbols, Indian pic
lures, rugs, blankets, beaded work,
medicine bags, pottery, birch canoes,
stone hatchets, arrow heads and grass
mats, being among the decorations
used. In the center Of the room was
a large iron kettle, from which hom-
my and maple syrup was served as
the first course. Mrs. Heibe and
Mrs. Head received in Indian cos
tunes, which added greatly to the
Indian idea carried out. Two letters
from Indian missions, one from Kan
fsas and one from Washington, were
read at the meeting. twenty-five
members and visitors attended and a
picture of the guests and decoration
was taken during the afternoon. The
next meeting will be held at the
home of Mrs. Botting- and Mrs.
Gilman will be the leader. This So
ciety, which began with only a few
charter members, is steadily growing
larger and visitors are urged to come
and attend the meetings.
Walt Mason has this to say con-
corning the grouchy merchant: "The
grouchy merchant whose heads al
ways sore, is sure the destroyer of
peace in his store. I pay good wa
ges, the best in the town, and al
ways he RACES, my statesmen fall
down. They came recommended as
men hard to beat, but ere a months
ended they're dead on their feet
With rantings and ratings he eases
his mind, but to his own failings he's
stupidity blind. He always is grow
ing and roasting the clerks; his
gloom and his scowling affects the
whole works. No clerks can keep
humping, with bows, smiles and
becks, if some one is jumping all day
on their necks. It's no use to hustle
and play a good game they say, the
old cuss'll be mad just the same
Grown weary of nagging, they fret
and they sulk their spirits are sag
ging, they've grief in the bulk. The
dealer and seller should look for a
chance to boost the young Teller
who's keen to advance. The mer-
chant is silly who rants by the year;
his store has a chilly and dead atmo-
sphere. His men are all wishing
he'd cross the divide, so they could go
fishing and let their jobs slide"

IMPROVE OLD APPLE TREES
Carefully Remove All Dead and Cross
Notwithstanding the Bark
Destroys Many Insects.

All dead and cross branches should
be removed. Make a clean cut close
to the branch. cover the wound with
grating wax or shellac varnish.
Scrape the dead bark and moss on
the larger limbs and then scrub them
with warm water and soft soap using
a stiff brush. This s%crubbing will
cleanse the bark and kin many worms
and their larvae. Select a mild day
for this work. Such methods require
considerable judgment in their appli.
cation, but with proper care they are
successful. Old apple trees given the
above treatment will gradually in
crease the Weld and quality OF their
fruit, II WI take several years OF
careful culture to bring the trees into
full bearing, but 1t will pay hand.

not worth fussing with through the
cold winter months. They have done
their work. Their milk Is now scanty
In quantity and their cream hard to
churn, because they have been giving
milk 30 long. Begin with fresh cows.
Make up your mind to feed well.
The cows cannot get grass now. You
must make up to them as nearly as
you can for this lack. Feed liberal
allowances Of the best hay you can
get. Never say or even think that
any kind Of hay will make good milk.
II will not.
Give a~llopathlc doses OF ground feed.

ton. And by the way, this subject OF
n balanced ration Is one that every
man must study for himself. lie knows
his cows better than anybody else
does. lie can prescribe for them more
in~telligently than a man can at a dis
lance. Study is the farmers saliva
ton.
Finally, keep Just a accurate an ac-
count with your cows as II they were
your summer boarders from the city
and you wanted to know whether II

POULTRY HOUSE SITE
Convenience Is Main Thing 10 Be
Considered.

The builder OF n farm poultry house
should carefully consider the available
sites. and put II where the fowls VIII
do best. and where II will be easiest
TO look after them.
Convenience Is the main thing to pe
regarded on a farm where there is
much work TO be done other than tax

problem OF drainage. Damp. low
