band Talk on Fayorite Topic Can
Always. Be Sure of Holding
His Interest.

One of the greatest causes Of I'M
happiness In married life Is the lack
of interest in each others doings after
the irrevocable step has been taken
and the newness of being always to-
gether has worn off, remarks the De-
troit News-Tribune.
Then it is that unless the wife
makes the efforts to please that she
did in the counting days the husband
will go elsewhere for amusement. Yet
he Is only following the natural In.
stinct of humanity In seeking for SYM
pathetic companionship; the fault Is
partly hers.
A man to be won and kept must first
be attracted and then made to feel
that he has sympathy which draws
him out and makes him talk about
what interests him most. II IL not
enough to make him listen while he Is
being talked to. For time that will
hold him, but he will tire Of always
being a listener, of always giving his
sympathy and receiving none.
TO hold man, a woman must I'M
derstund and study him, she must not
be exacting. for to expect too much
only makes him feel that he wants to
give less.
a man usually goes out into the
world young; he leads>a separate ex-
istence ut an age when his sister Is

Can anyone wonder that many years
of indulgence In this, coupled with a
larger command Of money than their

should end by fixing the habit Of
thinking Of their own pleasure so firm
ly in their minds that 1t Is practically
ineradicable?
1t may be Overpowered for time
by strong affection and all the coun-
ter influences OF courtship and early
matrimony; but later, when these
have ceased to be novelties aud

old habit reasserts itself.
A woman. on the contrary, Is trained

Photography in Air Raids.

prime means Of ascertaining the accu-
racy with which bomb dropping is at

when place Is to be bOmbarded the
process does not consist merely Of

PUREBRED SIRES FOR DAIRY

ING AII.lmportant-Adds Profit to

The value of the purebred sire for
every class of farm livestock Is COM

nowhere does he come so near being
all-important as In the dairy. In one

Haphazard methods Of breeding will
not produce a bull Of highest quality.
He must have quality ancestry on both
sides and the only ancestry known to
be reliable Is one whose history Is reg

and nowhere does it speak more en-

ton descending from purebred COW
and scrub bull and bred again to
scrub stock will continue to decline
and the offspring of the first cross is
likely not worth its keep.
If dairymen could see In the con-
crete sense the millions Of dollars
which the consistent use of nothing
but purebred sires would bring to
the dairy industry within ten years
time, the mission Of the apostles OF
better breeding would be once and for
all fulfilled. A purebred sire Is un.
doubtedly the most profitable and at
the same time economical investment
which the dairy farmer can make.

DAIRY
RINSE UTENSILS AFTER CcE
Prevents Water In Milk From Evapor.
atin0 and Solid Matter Sticking
to the Vessel.

The first important rule to observe
in cleaning dairy utensils Is to rinse
them Immediately after use. This pre-
vents the water in the milk from
evaporating and the solid matter stick
ing to the utensil. II it Is impossible
to wash the utensils at once rinse
them in cold or lukewarm water, SO
that the most Of the milk will be re-
moved before 1t has chance to stick.
Hot water should not be used until
the milky substances have been re-
moved with cold or iukewarm water,
for the hot water will coagulate the
casein In the milk SO that 1t will
stick to the tin and require greater
amount of washing before 1t can be
removed.
After rinsing In cold or lukewarm
water wash the utensils In hot water.
Cold or lukewarm water Is practically
worthless for cleaning purposes. Use
some standard brand Of alkali wash.
Ing powder with the hot water. The
alkali powders are more desirable for
the work, since they quickly and eff
ciently remove the milk from the tin.
Powders or soaps that have grease
as part Of their composition do not
give as satisfactory results as the
alkali powders.

Probably no class of plants enjoy such

due largely to the ease with which
