OBSERVATIONS"
By Our Man About Town

If our school boys and girls of today
were given names like the Indian boys
and girls were given years ago, know
several youngsters who might be called
young Man Afraid of His Report
Card"
imagine our school teachers will
agree with me when say pupils do not
take the interest in school they should
take-and imagine they will 60 far
ther with me in the assertion that In
most cases this lack of interest in the
pupil is brought about by the lack OF
interest in schools on the part of par
ents.
am not even intimating that all our
boys and girls are disinterested in their
school work. In fact, know one boy
youngster of some dozen years, who
is absorbed" in his studies, and it is
this example l wish to place before
other boys and girls, both older and
younger than he.
In the first place, I will give the par.
ents of this "model' most of the credit
for the boys standing. They have
made him realize the Importance OF
good daily grades. They have done
this not by voercion but by persuasion
They have even offered him "cash pri'
zes," giving him nickle for every
hundred" he earned in his daily
studies, and dime for every "ninety'
on his monthly examinations. have
not learned what this "high finance" is
costing the parents, but do know the
result is we'll worth the price-and they
realize it even more than anyone else
could possibly do.
The boy in question is not "pet.
He is as much boy as is possible to
crowd into youngster of his age-but
he has been taught the value of ear
nest study during school hours, and he
will ever thank his parents for thai
teaching.

THE POULTRY MITE

The common poultry mite that in.
tests so many hen houses can be easily
gotten rid OF. However, the best way
is to keep from getting them. Poultry
mites are found most often in a dark
dirty henhouse with few windows. The
mites feed at night and stay in cracks
and crevices in the day time.
Sunshine, cleanliness and ventilation
are the most important factors in re-
venting the mites. An extra window is
the most certain preventative suggest.
ed.
Kerosene emulsion, strong tobacco
solutions or commercial stock dips are
good for spraying. To make kerosene
emulsion dissolve half pound of
laundry soap or pound Of lye soap in
gallon of boiling soft water; take the
solution off the stove and add two gal
Ions of kerosene before cooling. Mix
them by churning ten or fifteen min
utes, and for use, dilute one part of the
emulsion to eight or nine parts water.
One spraying is not sufficient to kill
all the mites and sometimes four or
five applications are necessary.

Don Watkins
Finds Himself
Sought For for Two Year and
Didn't Know 1t.

The two-year search for Don Watkins
terminated suddenly last week when
he made his sister at Detroit a short
visit.
Don is well-known in East Jordan
having resided here for some time
with his sister, Mrs. Arthur X. Hill.
About two years ago the brothers and
sisters fell heir to considerable prop
erty and an effort was made to locate
Mr.. Watkins. Last summer Mrs. Hill
attended the Ringing circus at Petos-
key and inquired about him of some of
the men in charge but failed to get any
information. AS a matter of fact he
was with the circus people, but had
laid off at Grand Rapids to have a
tape-worm removed at the hospital
there. He has made his home in New
York the past three years and travelled
with Ringlings circus during the sum-
mer.
Having some business at Toledo, he
decided to visit his sister at Detroit and
this was the first intimation that he
had that he was heir to a considerable
fortune and had been sought for for
two years.

It's never too late for our enemies TO

We all believe in the single term

It's getting so Mexico isn't even a

Why don't they use rubber instead

A cannibal wouldn't eat a knocker,
for he knows the meal wouldn't agree
with him.
The man who can get out of trunk
after being put in there with legs and
arms tied, is qualified to dress in a
Pullman birth.
The get-together spirit is susceptible
to misconstruction. 1t is possible to
get together in ways that could not in
any way be considered cooperation.
The man who is reading the other
side of your newspaper in a street car
thinks you are boob if you don't ask
him if he is ready to have you turn the

The greater the demand for iron and
steel for engines of war, the greater
the dividends on Carneigie's steel stock,
therefore the greater his contributions
to the cause of peace.
The two most interesting figures in
the approaching campaign are the two
colonels-Bryan and Roosevelt. Neither
one could be elected in his own right,
but they have the power to name the
one who shall.
After persons face becomes mark

Calfmeal vs. Skim Milk
For Young Calves,

The calfmeal is not as valuable food
as skimmilk for calves and they will
not make same growth on it. Some of
the best brans may have the same
amount of dlgestable nutrients but not
equal in feeding value as that of the
milk. The milk has been natures food
for young and growing animals and as
yet man has not prepared food that is
its equal in food value. The younger
the calves are the greater is their need
Of skimmilk. And gradually as the
calves become older they may be fed
this prepared food such as bran calf
meal and etc. instead of skimmilk. It
is good plan to feed calves with whole
milk if it can be spared for about four
weeks, then change to skimmilk. About
this time they will begin eating grain
and hay. After they can eat these suf-
ficiently then this food will be fed as
supplements to milk.

AGRICULTURAL NOTES

Conducted by E. J. A. c.

The laying out of an orchard is very
live question with all fruit growers,
and the following plan for locating the
place where the trees should stand will
simplify this work, especially where
the triangular system sometimes called
the hexagonal system is used.
Square and triangular settings have
been fully discussed for many years in
all the farm journals, and each system
has its advocates. But the triangular
system is becoming more popular; with
all the trees the same distant apart in
each direction, with more trees to the
acre, and with three instead of two
ways to cultivate between the trees,
the advantages of this system are evil
dent.
Also the panoramic view of the or.
chard is very fine when this system is
used, and we believe all growers OF
good fruit have an eye for the beautiful
as well as for the practical.
Locating trees by this plan is accom-
plished by using light chain made in
to a triangle, the sides being Of the
same length and having rings and ham
dies at each corner.
To make up this setting chain, first
decide on how far apart the trees are
to be and get enough number twelve
jack chain for three times the planting
distant. The chain is not undandy for
planting apple trees as far apart as
forty, forty-five or even fifty feet.
Peaches and plums are usually planted
one-half the distant of apples; Hence
this chain may be used in planting all
of these kinds of fruit. You will need
six one-inch malleable harness rings,
one for each corner and one in the mid
die of each side. The chain must be
made very accurately; this can be done
by making each of the six sections over
some form.
Supposing you want to plant apples
forty feet apart, make each of the six
sections twenty feet long.
