The Ball Players Prayer.

Lord, help me to play the game.
1t matters not whether l am tai
ented or poor in natural gifts;
wealthy or starving, leader
among men or a simple follower,
SO that play the game as you
would have it played. Help me
to keep my eye on the ball, that
the curves of temptation not de-
ceive me. Keep my feet on the
path of righteousness, that l may
touch second and third on my way
round the bases. Help me to
beat out my bunts, and hold me
that l stray not too far from base
when the catcher is ready to peg
me. Count not my fouls against
nae, o Lord, for the batting eye
sometimes goes wrong, though
the intention is right. Help me in
the pinches, Lord, because good
bingle might bring my brother
home. Let not the music of the
fans keep my eye from the ball,
nor the enticem of the slabmar
draw me away from the need of &
clean single with a man on second
Help me, o Lord, to bat over 300
because my eyes are on the big
league for eternity even while
sojourn here among the bush

SOME POINTERS
(By Elizabeth, Ia Toledo Blade.)

(By Elizabeth, in Toledo Blade)
Get the habit of cheerfulness. 1t
leads to happiness.
Never criticise unless you can sug-
gest something better than that with
which you find fault.
In order to have friends, YOU must
be friend.
A lady may always be lady, 90
matter what the conduct of the
other fellow.
A smile and a pleasant word never

OF month Get the habit.
Remember, there is none who has
not an influence in some form or
other, and remembering this, you
know what you have to do II
you want your life to count for any
thing.
Why not, once in a while, just fol
the sake of variety, think "all's right
with the world" instead Of "all''
wrong!'
1t is never a disgrace to say, 81
was to blame" in case of trouble ant
tribulation. Many time it act
like balm that soothes.
Just for change, think more O
the things you bave to be please'
with, than those you have TO kic

What is past, is past. The futur
is shaped by the present. Take goo

Something
About CreanerieS
Stimulus to Dairy Industry In Middle
States.

Articles have appeared in various
newspapers and periodicals from time
to time giving accounts of the sue
cessful operation Of CO operative
creameries 10 this country, especially
10 Minnesota, Wisconsin and Iowa.
A number Of such creameries have
been established in western states
including Idaho. There are several
ia southern Idaho-at Boise, Nampa,
Caldwell and other places. In the
northern part of the state creamerles
are being operated at Standpoint and
ST. Maries. In Montana creameries
established as long as ten years ago
under difficulties are said to be 10 a
fourishing and growing condition.
The most instances cited showing
the development of the dairy industry
by means of the cooperative creamery
are In the states OF the middle west.
The dairy product of the state OF
Wisconsin In 1913 amounted to $92,.
100000, we are told. In the state OF
Iowa there are 526 creameries, and
46O OF them are cooperative. Most
Of these are being operated success
fully, it Is claimed. and reports show
that the farmers of the communities
having cooperative creamerles are
receiving higher prices for thei'
cream. According to one report the
creamerles of Iowa sold their butter
IN 1918 on an average Of 1892 cents
per pound. During that year Iowa
produced SO, s53, ,249 pounds of butter
which sold for $2S. 2s5, 249.
The cooperative creameries scat
tered about through the various
counties, were established by th'
farmers subscribing stock In them
the creamery plants costing from
$500 to over $40, 900 each according
to equipment and capacity.
Many OF these creameries are salt
to have been started with 200 or 30
cows, more cows being brought in a
the industry grew and the proht
were found to justify the investment
The advantages to the farmer stock
holder selling his cream to the CO
operative creamery is that be receive
full value for the butterfat and tn
profits of the oyerrun returned to hir
In dividends.
1t Is asserted that creamery COST
Ing $500 and employing one butter
maker will return a good profit o
only 200 cows, each yielding a
average of 10 quarts of milk a da
for 800 days in the year, each
quarts producing one pound OF outte
aud 1t is said farmers disposing
their cream to such an institutic
can get more fer the product tina
they can get by disposing of it 10 AT
other way.
In Todd county Minnesota Il
total creamery receipts reach 81, l25
600 year. There are eleven cream
cries in that county, the dairy her
consisting chiefly OF Guernsey, He
stein aud Jersey cattle.

LOO southerns billed through to
northern pastures, so that salable
stock wa sof moderate volume.
Influences prevailing in the fat cat
tie market were of rather bearish
character, but as thelocal run includ-
ed but a moderate showing of killers
the deal worked out on nearly a
steady basis. Quality of the supply
was rather plain.
Run included quite a big assort-
ment of stockers and feeders and
with inquiry from the country rather
uncertain. buyers hammered prices
vigorously, declines on both steers
and she stuff being right at a quarter
from the best time last week.
Hog market was slow to start. Re-
ceipts were on the generous order
and buyers during the early rounds
tried their bets to force values lower,
but when a trading basis was reach
ed the concessions were only prices
very little different than on Satur-
day. Two loads of fancy light butch
er hogs sold at $3.50, while the bulk
of business for the day was done at
a range of a 7.40.
