PROPER WAY TO MAKE BED
Seems a Simple Proceeding, but There
Are Some Methods Preferable
to Others.

To make up a bed 50 that it will be
smooth, tuck the clothes in, one piece
at a time, at the sides, and complete
the work all but tucking the clothes
in ut the foot. Now draw the clothes
down, one piece at a time, as taut as
possible, and tuck them in at the foot.
The bed will be far heater looking then
would be otherwise possible. If the
bed is of iron or brass. which does not
permit of tucking i'll the coyerlet, tuck
in the other clothes as directed, plac-
ing the coyerlet over all.
A new way to make beds is as fol-
lows: Sew two short loops on one
end OF each covering, these loops be-
ing the distance apart OF the width
Of the bed and equally distant from the
rms Of the coverings. Then take
a brass rod cut just as long as the bed
Is wide, and cover it with d thin pad
ding Of cotton and some durable ma
ierial. This rod is run through the
LOOPS Of the bed coverings and tucked
in at the foot Of the bed.
When the bed is put to air, the bed
clothes may be readily thrown back
without becoming separated. This de-
vice is especially adapted for chill
dren's beds, or is good to use when
there is illness in the home.

SUITABLE PLACE FOR CREAM
Answers Purpose Quite Well
Little Souring Results.
(By CARL E. LEE.)

(By CARL Z. LEE.)
Most farmers would deliver a better
grade of cream if they had a suitable
place for keeping it until it is deliv-
cred. No one should attempt to keep
the cream in the cellar or in a large
tank of water where the daily pump
ing is not sufficient to keep it cool. If
a suitable place cannot be built in a
well-constructed milkhouse the fol-
lowing arrangement answers the pur-
pose quite we'll.
Caring for the cream at the proper
time by any of the methods given be-
low will result in very little souring
at the end of two days.
Make a small watertight box Of two
inch material and Of sufficient size to
hold all the ear al necessary in
handling the cream. This box should
have a tight-fitting cover, and be di-
yided into sections by means OF rods
which will prevent single cans from
upsetting when left alone in the tank.
The best place for this tank is in the
~milkhouse. It may be placed between
the we'll pump and the stock-watering

GOOD TREATMENT FOR SHEEP
Real Value OF Animal Is in Wool,
Lambs and Mutton-Weed Destruc-
ton Il Only incidental.

1t is often argued that sheep should
be kept by farmers because they live
in lean pastures and are useful in rid
ding the fields Of weeds, getting much
Of their living from what other stock
will not eat and that the farm is much
better rid of. That is all true, but
that should not be the main reason
for keeping sheep. In fact, weed de-
struction should be only an incident.
The value Of the sheep is in wool,
lambs and mutton. To do their best
in these lines, sheep need and should
have as good treatment as other do
nestle animals.
Sheep may live on pastures that
would not sustain horses or cattle, but
they will not do their best on such
pastures. They must eat and thus de-
stroy weeds and even sprouts and
brambles, that other stock would not
touch, but such growths do not make
their best feed.

FERMENTED BRAN IS UNSAFE
French Experimenters Find That
When Stored in Heap During
Winter Months It Ferments.

Bran when stored in bulk sometimes
ferments, SO that it causes digestive
trouble when fed to animals. French
eXperimenters a year or two ago found
that when bran was stored in a heap
for four or five months during the
winter it tended to form into Jumps on
the outside of the heap, and on the in
side the Jumps became darkened, and
in some cases black.
These experimenters, from analy-
ses of different types of bran. thought
that they could determine bran fit for
use by what is known as the acidity
test.
Bran which, according to this test,
contains less than Is per cent of acid
is o. X. That which contains from Is
to 80 per cent Of acid is safe to use,
but it soon becomes unsafe. That
which contains more than 80 per cent
Of acid is considered unfit for food

Its operation is described as follows:

Metal tubes are more easily kept

e%rvoir, and is made into the consis.

There are several ways of holding
the bird, but the following will be
found simple and effective: Fold the
wings and grip the bird firmly either
between the right elbow and side OF
the body, as shown in the illustration
or between the left elbow and the
body, whichever is more convenient

mouth to keep it open. The tube is
placed in the mouth and the bird is
gently drawn on until the end of the
tube reaches the crop, the neck be-
ing elongated as much as possible.
The lever bar is gently lowered by the
foot and the food is thus forced into
the crop. One hand is kept on the
crop and as soon as it is sufficiently
full the foot is removed from the lever
and the bird is gently removed.
The operator soon learns to know
when the crop is full. No stated
amount that should be fed to an indi-
vidual can be given, for the quantity
varies with the size Of tho crop.
Great are should be taken in pre-
pairing the feed to see that there are
no Jumps, for the tube is small and
easily becomes blocked.

Many Reasons Why Room Should Be

Scheme Means Much.

One wonders at the housekeepers
who choose for their kitchen walls
and woodwork a dingy gray or brown
or some other dark, dull color that
will not show the dirt. Are they bet
ter housekeepers because the dirt,
which is surely there, does not show?
Would these same m wear black
dresses and aprons when doing the
cooking and feel that they were clean
because they did not look soiled?
The kitchen should be the cleanest,
sunniest. and most cheerful room in
the house. 1t is here the housekeeper
spends most Of her time, and it is
here the food is prepared and often
served.
It is not always possible to have
the kitchen located SO as to get the
best light. but a dark room may be
much improved by using the proper
color. In a Minnesota town the
school kitchen had windows on the
east side only. Half Of them were on

The animal should have a straight
