A HAPPY NEW YEAR

We wish our many readers a
Happy New Year. Happiness is
a boon that all desire. 1t is the
sunshine OF life. The innocent
child feels it in its perfection.
The pure and good realize that
the foundation of happiness is a
quiet conscience. Unfortunately
many are not happy. The cares
of the world, the ingratitude Of
friends, the malice Of evil-doers,
mar the pleasure and disturb
the quietuda of lie. The con-
scientious performance of duty
is the surest antidote to the
troubles caused by outside infu-
ences. Virtue brings its own re-
ward. Righteous living means
happiness sooner or later. The
brave heart will learn to cast off
the troubles that may Cypress
for a whiless and to see through
every cloud a silver lining. In
life there is more to gladden. than
to cause sorrow, if we could but
realize it. Blessings are often
in disguise. May the year 1915
bring to all a bounteous supply
of good things, material and
spiritual.

MANNERS MAKYTH MAN.

Every now and then in the
cycles of civilization there comes
a tendency on the part of the
majority to scorn manners as the
special prerogative of the brain
less fop, or a passing fad of the
idle rich. This country. like all
others, underwent just such a
phase. The up-to-date young
man, and even young woman,
discarded their manners, along
with the old-fashioned dresses
worn by their grandparents.
There is no time, they said, for
the cultivation or pratice Of good
manners; life has developed into
a fevered race, in which he who
pauses for a second loses his foot
hold and falls out.
Fortunately these ideas are
becoming modified. We are
learning that the individual who
expends a few seconds in polite
ness is frequently rewarded by
the saving Of many precious
minutes.
Good manners, by which we
mean courtesy, kindness and
consideration, are not merely a
pleasing but more or less unim-
portant addition to mans social
equipment. they are almost a
practical necessity. Though
many of US may have professed
to ignore their value, we are all
subconsciously Influenced by
them. Any business in which
attention to this detail has been
incorporated in the general plan
of campaign has been repaid a
thousand times for it's common
sense. Good manners, while
costing little, accomplish much.
They may perhaps be classed
among the little things" but
who will not agree that it is Just
these little things that make the
big differences in our pleasure or
pain. comfort or discomfort?
They oil the wheels of life and
cause them to run smoothly and
noiselessly. To those who can
command its varied scale, from
genial warmth to icy frigidity,
politeness is perhaps the most
powerful weapon Of defense and
offense. Only the unskillful re-
turn rudeness in kind, it is so
much more whitening to be DO
lite, for self-contained and flaw
less politeness puts the rude ag-
gressor at a very real disadvant-
age. It is a most pleasant sign
that throughout the land there
are distinct indications of re-
crudescence Of that fine old
Southern trait embodied in the
saying that a mans manners
have much to do with the fash
ioning of his fortunes. Baltimore

COTTONSEED MEAL IS
ECONOMICAL DAIRY FOOD
Market Conditions Favorable To Use
OF Cottonseed At This Time.

Service.
Owing to the conditions brought
about by the war in Europe, large
part of the cottonseed cake hitherto
shipped to foreign countries will be
placed on the American market this
winter. The large supply available has
already reduced the price several dol
lars per ton.
Cottonseed meal is one of the rich
est protein feeds offered to the dairy
man. containing as it does, 45 per
cent of protein and "a therms of en-
ergy. Ordinarily it is not advisable
to feed more than to 2.5 pounds per
day.
AS it is constipating, some laxative
feed should be used in the ration with
cotton seed meal, such as bran, lin
seed meal, or the legume hays. Since
cottonseed is rich in protein, it will
be economy to supply a large part of
the protein needed in the ration from
this feed.
The following grain mixtures are
suggested for grain production:
800 lbs. corn or hominy chop
100 lbs. wheat bran
100 lbs. cottonseed meal.
The above ration is calculated to be
fed when the roughage is made up
of silage and alfalfa or some other
legume hay such as clover, COW peas,
or soy beans. A part of the silage
may be replaced by cut fodder. In
case no legume hay can be had the fol-
lowing mixture will more nearly fill
the requirements:
200 lbs. corn or hominy chop
100 lbs. bran
100 lbs cottonseed meal.
The grain mixtures should be fed at
the rate Of one pound Of grain to three
pounds of milk produced. The COW
should be given all the roughage she
will consume without waste.

During the summer months, when
cows are on pasture, the dairyman Is
not troubled with the problem of sup
plying the herd with ration which
will maintain the flow of milk and also
be economical.
To the farmer who has loft full
of alfalfa or clover, and a silo full Of
siiage, the problem is simple; he will
need comparatively little grain to
make a balanced ration.
If cut fodder, alone is available for
roughage, it will be necessary to sup
ply a large part of the nutrients. re-
quired to maintain the production OF
the herd, in the form Of grain mix
ture which will necessarily be ex-
pensive. This is the season when the
farmer realizes, more than ever that
silage and some legume hay are neces-
sary for the profitable production Of
milk and butter. Two-thtrds OF the
nutrients required for a normal pro-
duction can be supplied in the form
of rough feed; but where neither stlage
nor legumes are available two-thirds
of the daily feed must be supplied in
the form of grain. This necessitates
the purchase of large amounts Of high
priced concentrates; which will mako
the cost of production very high and
probably improbable.
In selecting the feeds for his grain
mixture the dairyman should choose
those that are to be had at the lowest
cost; and use only enough of each
so that the mixture will, when fed
with what roughage is available, sup
ply the nutrients that are required for
a given production. This is a bal
anced ration.

DRIVE POULTRY GENTLY.

It pays to be gentle with poultry at
all times, but especially during the
late fall when the pullets are just de-
veloping into laying condition. At
this time a sudden scare or excite
ment will set them back in egg pro-
duction When putting them into win
ter quarters, be as careful as you can.
If they have been kept tame, as they
should be, they can usually be driven
into their house very easily. An easy
way to drive them is for two or three
persons to get around them, each with
a long, light board or pole, held in the
middle. This is used to gently usher
them along without the necessity OF
running them down.

Christmas of 1914 is now a
memory, but on Friday last it
was a joyous reality. The frosty
atmosphere, the exultant church
services and the exchange of
gifts among friends, the indefn-
able something in the air, all
mark Christmas as the day of
days and this year was no ex-
ception to the sule. The reIig-
ioCs aspect of the holiday was
perhaps more dominant this year
than usual. The doctrine of
Christianity which is receiving

than ever in this country and

Man Loaded With Mischief is the

many others. At Underwood, Motifs, Is
an inn called 1.-THE Toad In the Hole -
and in the neighborhood Of Somer.
cotes, 1.-THE Old House at Home" An
other inn at the same place Is called
The Old English Gentleman"
1t is debatable point whether the
sign Of "The Man Loaded With Mis-.
chief" was painted by Hogarth. But II
is like his satire, for 1t represents q
man carrying woman.
Many peculiar signs are the result
Of misconception. ''The Bag O. Nails
is really '"The Bacchanals." 1.-THE Goat
and Compasses" is an ignorant shot at
the old motto, God encompasses u.s.
while 1.-The George and Cannon is q
modern corruption Of George Canning,
who was prime minister when the inn
was built.
One Of the funniest Of these corrup-
lions is "The Iron Devil" corruption
Of "Hirondelle" (swallowj. 1t is said
that the inn called "The Pig and Tin
der Box" was originally 1.-THE Ele.
plant and Castle" but a very poor
artist was engaged to paint the sign.
and somebody said it looked like pig
and finder box, and the name stuck
until it ousted the old one.
"The Plum and Feathers" an inn in
Oxford, should be "Plume of Feath-
ers." and 1.-THE Rose Of the Quarter
Sessions" was originally ia Rose des
Quatres SEASONS" One might think
1.-THE Ship and Shovel" belonged to the
same category. but it does not. The
reference is to Sir Cloudesley Shovel,
the powder monkey who became an
admiral in the reign of Queen Anne
London Tit-Bits.

SCIENCE WINS
FROM JAMESTOWN
BY the Score Of e to o at Smith
Field Saturday Afternoon
Before Large Crowd
GREAT GAME THROUGHOUT
The Four Quarters and Every
Player on Both Teams Was
Out to Win

Saturday afternoon the Science
defeated the fast team from James
town college in one of the best
games of the season. The boys
had that old time fighting spirit
that makes foot ball teams victor
ious. They simply wouldn't be
denied this victory. After poor
start at the beginning of the sea-
son and all throughout the season
seemed to lack the usual pep and
met defeat for this simple reason
at Fargo when meeting the college
team at that place. But last Sat
urday saw the boys perform
just as nicely as could be seen
anywhere. They played with
precision and perfection each man
in the backfield following his in
reference and showed great
Judgment in picking holes. The
few forward passes by the Science
that netted the most gains were
the short ones over the line ot
scrimmage. After fooling the
the ends and second line of de-
Tense for Jamestown into believ-
ing that the ball was going I.
be passed into long one over
their heads. Ulsaker who did
most Of the passing would cross
fire it just over the line from
three to eight yards net gain, very
nearly every time. There is No
getting away from the fact that
iif Science had shown the same
amount of pep" against Fargo
College as against jamestown. the
honors would have came back to
Wahpeton.
GILES again showed his open
field ability and displayed wond-
erful talent, in sliding through
narrow holes in the line for good
gains chiefly because he never
quit after hitting the line, always
squirming and twisting until he
could get no farther until the next
time. Anderson, Ulsaker and
Ripple. also showed up to large
advantage and Ulsaker's judg-
ment at quarter was simply mar
vicious at times.
Coach Ward had given the boys
nice variety Of attack and the
line although outweighed. played
! in great form.
