LAST NIGHT THE

Apprecialive but Small Audi

There was "muckle bit of good

pheum last night, when William Nor
ris presented his three-act domestic
comedy, The Night Before" Differing
a bit from the ordinary comedy of this
type by virtue of the songs, which were
written by Harry Lauder, another Will
liam Morris star, "The Night Before"
served a double purpose, in that it was
most unusual in its form of entertain

purest type. And in addition to all else
which might be said, THE Night Be

This is not profitable dairying. Yet
farmers cannot greatly increase dairy
production unless they apply the scales
and Babcock test to their individual
cows and find out the cows that pay
for their feed and those which do not.
The cooperative contrasting associa-
ton enables all the dairy farmers of a
community to test all their cows. With
an average OF 25 members the cost of
such an association usually amounts
to 81 to $1.5O per COW per year.
Benefit of the Cow-Testing Associa-
ton.
According to Iowa bulletin No. Is
1880 yearly records from 1T different
dairy herds have been completed in the
five cow-testing associations In Iowa
which have been organized in the state
since 1909.
The average COW in the testing asso-
Citations produced 217 pounds of butter
fat per year at net profit of $32,77,
after paying for the feed at market
prices less the cost Of hauling.
If the 100000 milk cows of Iowa
produced as much butterfat per year
as the average COW in the contrasting
associations, it would mean an in-
creased production for the state Of
115 100000 pounds of butterfat per
year, worth, at 80 cents per pound,
$34 ,65O,OOO.
The most profitable cow returned
her owner a net profit Of $125, while
the poorest COW lacked 1882 Of pay
ing for her feed.
The cow-testing association is the
best method of detecting the loafers in
the herd. It puts dairying on BUSH
ness basis, arouses the interest Of the
owner, his boys and hired man in the
cows, stirs up local pride by bringing
the people of the community together
to talk over their business and helps
to make farm work enjoyable and in
teresting.
Some people think that it is hard
job to milk cows and care for stock,
but we will find it just the opposite if
we will take an interest in the work
and get our heads in the game. All
work is drudgery unless we like it
put the best we have into it, and use
intelligence. The COW has lifted many

Natural and Manufactured
Stones Used With Wooden
Material in This House.
NEW TYPE OF CONSTRUCTION
tie Beauties, Noted at Glance, May
BE Added To by Vines and Shrubs
Interior Arrangement Shows
High Ability Displayed
by the Designers.

Mr.. William A. Radford win answer
Questions and give advice FREE OF
COST on all subjects pertaining to the
subject Of building, for the readers of this
paper On account of his wide experience
as Editor, Author and Manufactures, he
is. without doubt, the highest authority
on all these subjects. Address all inquiries
to William A. Radford, No. 1927 Prairie
avenue, Chicago, I'LL, and only enclose
two-cent stamp for reply.
The idea of permanence in house
construction dates back to period
which had passed long before the ex-
lstence of the new world was even
thought of. 1t is very probable that
other considerations were of govern
ing Importance at that time and the
quality of permanence was obtained
more as a matter of necessity than
as a matter of desire. The materials
out of which buildings were made in
the early days we're the materials
which could be taken from nature and
converted into their final form with
the least possible necessity of any
process being performed upon them
which would resemble what would to-
day be termed a manufacturing opera
ton. It was early found that if stones
having flat faces were gathered in sufi-
cient quantities they could be piled
one on top Of the other with some
form OF plastic material to fill the
cracks, and the resulting wall could be
built to form an enclosure with a rough
covering of thatch, animal skins or
even huge slabs of stone. Thus it
happened that the natural way was
also a permanent way to construct
houses.
In every age since its advent into
the field of building materials stone
has found place, if reasonable facil-
tiles for using it have been at hand
and sufficient supply obtainable. At
the present time it is used in much
different sense than it originally was
found necessary to consider it. The

hall, and a double-acting door leads to
the kitchen.
The culinary department is made up
of a generous-sized kitchen, a particu-
larly handy pantry, and the rear porch,
which may be considered an extra
room during the warm part of the
year. The refrigerator is arranged
to be iced from the outside. Every
convenience is included in the design
of this part of the house.
The second floor is well arranged
and contains several interesting fea-
lures. A large hall is centrally located
from which all of the rooms on this
floor, and the stairs to the first floor,
may be reached. Two large bedrooms
are placed en- either side of the hall.
Each has a dressing room, two clos
cts and little nook attached to it.
A sleeping porch is built at the for
ward end of the hall and the bath is
placed at the rear end of the hall.
These sleeping quarters are capable
of providing perfect comfort for
large family.
The type of house illustrated" in this
design is a very good one for the aver
age American family and it is coming
more and more into use because of its
finished materials and general utility
Eagle River review. [volume] (Eagle River, Wis.) 1890-1927, 1916-09-15

vast number of building materials
which are today open for the selec-
ton of the perspective builder have
eliminated the necessity Of holding to
some few types of construction, and
when any particular material selection
is made it represents the personal
preference of the owner, who may be
inclined to judge either from a stand
point Of appearance or utility.
A wise selection of materials will,
however. necessitate the basis of judg-
ment upon a desire for both beauty and
Dermanence. The home is usually
considered as something permanent
and must be built to meet this require
ment. This does not imply that every
home should be constructed of solid
stone masonry, for proper construc-
tor methods and a reasonable atten-
tio1. to maintenance will give a wooden
structure long life. Some people do
not object to the occasional trouble
of repainting a frame house and are
inclined toward this type because of
the possibility which it offers for treat
ment in various color combinations.
Others prefer the type which, if once
erected, needs no further attention and
can be relied upon to hold it's original
appearance for long period of years.

Princess Carlotta produced proteins
sufficient for more than three steers !;
nearly fat enough for two; ash enough
to build the skeletons for three, and
in addition, 920 pounds of milk sugar
worth as much per pound for food as
ordinary sugar.
It<is because of this economical use
of food that the dairy COW and not the
steer is kept on high-priced land. When
land is cheap and feed abundant the
meat-producing animals predominant,
but when the land becomes high in
value and feed expensive the farmer
turns to the dairy COW.
Duchess Skylark Ormsby is the
worlds champion butter producer. The
results of her 1856 consecutive days
test, conducted by the Minnesota Agri-
cultural college, shows that she pro-
duced 27,761 pounds of milk, nearly IA
tons, or over % times her own weight.
The butterfat contained in this years
milk yield weighed 1,205 pounds.
At 35 cents a pound, she produced
about $500 worth of commercial butter
in one year. To her credit of $500
worth of butter must be added over
10000 pounds of skim milk and butter
milk, about ii tons of manure, and a
calf, which pay for her feed and care,
making the $500 net profit to the
owner.
