The King David Apple.

The King David apple is one
of the newer varieties which has
been much advertised and talked
about. Whether it is going to
prove a success commercially in
Pennsylvania, the Department Of
Agriculture is not prepared to
say for the reason that its eX-
perts have not had sufficient time
to observe it. However, it is
worth growing in the home or
chard.
The King David is supposed to
be a cross between the Jonathan
and Arkansas Black and has prov
ed superior to either parent in
many characteristics. The tree
is hardy and productive and is up
to the average in vigor and
health. 1t is a better colored ap-
pie than the Jonathan which
makes King David one of the
handsomest grown. Its deep,
solid red color, uniform size, and
rotund shape are three qualities
making for perfection from the
aesthetic point of view.
The fruit hangs on we'll, deep
ening in color the longer it hangs
but to keep we'll it should be
picked as soon as we'll overspread
with color, and before the seeds
are we'll ripened. If overripe
when picked it has a tendency to
rot at the core in storage.
The flesh is distinctly yellow,
firm, crisp, moderately tender,
juicy, brisk, sub-acid, spicy and
aromatic, and in quality good and
very good. Its season is from
November to February. Alto.
gether it is one of the most prom.
ising of the newer apples.

Critical Period.
From the Shamokin daily Dis
patch, March Il.
Congressman Ben Focht over
at Lewisburg is a candidate for
reelection and it looks like he
would win, hands down.
Its like a familiar newspaper
advertisement there's a rea-
son." With Focht it's HIS HUI
MAN INTEREST IN ALL HIS
CONSTITUENTS-to whom he
of course is indebted for his elec-
tion-and in a lot of other people
from whom he has no earthly
reason ever to expect a favor.
1t is Focht's policy of watch
full waiting" for an opportunity
to do someone a favor that has
made him so solid in his district
that it is dangerous to intimate
over there that he has any faults.
It's only at long range that peo-
pie say that he has, but when
they get close to his genial per-
sonage they forget it.
Some people over in his district
knock about his political affilia-
tions but when it gets around to
election time they mark their bal
lots for Ben Focht for Congress.
Being a good fellow isn't an
art. It 8 a science and it takes
brains to play the game success
fully. Ben Focht has been "a
good fellow" to everybody SC
long that 1t has become a habit.

of beef steak and the medical ex-
pert prescribes milk when you
cannot digest any other food.
Milk is very easy of digestion and
a complete food in that it con-
tains correct balance of protein,
energy and the minerals. Fur
thermore, milk enters into har-
monious and beneficial combina-
ton with many other foods and
greatly increases their value. If
the consumption of milk were in
creased the cost of living could
be materially reduced and health
conserved at the same time.
Cream, butter and buttermilk
should enter largely into our diet
ary, because of their cheapness
and digestibility. No other stand
ard food is as digestible as pure
butter, save sugar alone. Ice
cream is sometimes considered a
luxury, yet it is a very nourish-
ing food in every sense of the
term. Milk that has turned sour
has simply been acted on by the
Tactic acid ferments, natural to
all cows milk, and while the milk
has lost a little of its sugar, the
souring has increased its digesti-
bility. Buttermilk and sour milk
are very digestible and cooling
and soothing to the digestive
tract.
When you buy milk, always
remember that a quart Of milk is
worth practically as much as the
average pound of beef steak and
you will soon see the economy of
using more milk"

Why cuvier Wore a Beard.

''To save time is to lengthen life"

another in almost every language,
and Cuyier, the great naturalist,
found life all too short to accom-
plish all he wished to do, though
most economical of the hours.
81 found" he said, chat my
shaving took me a quarter Of ar
hour a day. This makes seven and
a half hours in a month and ninety
hours, or three days and eighteen
hours, very nearly four days year.
This discovery staggered me. Here
was | complaining that time was
too short; that the years flew by too
swiftly; that had not hours enough
for work, and in the midst Of my
complaining l was wasting nearly
four days year in lathering my
face with shaving brush, and re-
solved thenceforth to let my beard
grow"

Milk as a Food.

1t is a great pity that the good
old habit of eating plenty of mush
and milk has fallen into disre-
pute. What grand old men and
women were grown on mush and
milk diet. If our dietarians or
dining room masters would coin
an unpronounceable French name
for this excellent combination
dish, and thus induce the masses
to eat it in abundance, their action
would be a benefit to humanity.
The above is the sentiment ex-
pressed by L. W. Lightly, farm
adviser of the State Department
of Agriculture in making a plea
for the use of more milk. Mr..
Lightly says:

WOLVES OF THE ARCTIC.
These White Coated cowards Swarm

over the Icy North.
1t was like a picture from one Of
the old books on travel in Siberia.
Twelve white wolves were leaping
over the snow directly at us.
Fiction would have us now fight
ing for our lives, knives between
teeth and rifles constantly going.
On the contrary, we prayed that
they would not stop, but keep COM
ing on. Undoubtedly they would
have done so had we been able to
control our dogs, who were now
wild with excitement, whining, yelp-
ing and straining on the traces.
We shouted and threatened and
lashed with the whip, the same time
holding back with all our strength
on the upstanders Of the sledge.
The leader of the band stopped, sur
veyed us critically for an instant
and wheeled, followed by the others.
BY the time that we could tear the
covers from the rifles they we're out
of range.
l have no conjunction whatever
in shooting at these sneaking cow
ards OF the animal world. Axel
Heiberg Land is infested with them,
their tracks being found intermin-
Cling with those of the musk OK and
white caribou. A mother and her
young are surrounded, worried to
death and torn in pieces. During
Sverdrup's expedition the wolves
came into camp, attacked and kill
ed some of the dogs and later, on
the trail, even attacked one of the
men who had no other weapon tc
defend himself with than a ski.
No animal in the north is so en-.
during, none has such wide range
and none has easier existence, theil
food being musk oxen, caribou
arctic hare, Jennings and possibly
foxes. There is also every evidence
to believe that wolves prey upoI

WHAT CATARRH IS

1t has been said that every third
person has catarrh in some form.
Science has shownthat nasal catarrh
often indicates a general weakness
of the body and local treatments in
the form of snuffs and vapors do little,
if any good.
To correct catarrh you should treat its
cause by enriching your blood with the

medicinal food and building-tonic, free
