Bird Fountains,

The interest in bird protection that
has this year led to the placing OF
pretty bird houses in many private
gardens is also bringing into promi-
hence the bird drinking fountain as
garden ornament.
These fountains are usually shaped
like flat-bowled vase. They hold
either little smooth pool of water or
one troubled daintily by tiny foun-
bowl.
The fountains come In wrought iron,
In stone and in cement. Often their
beauty Is enhanced by water plants
floating in the bowls.

Many fruit-growers first find the scale
on the fruit by the red blotching which
develops about the point of attack. The
blotch is deep red In color with light
spot in the center and may vary in
size from mere spot to distinct
blotch. The pest seemingly injects
poison while extracting sap, which
causes the red blotch.
All trees and fruit should be fire.
quently examined and in all cases
where there is any question about the
presence of the scale in an orchard,
samples of bark, twig and fruit should
be sent to the Missouri agricultural
experiment station at Columbia, for
examination. 1t is waste OF time
and material to spray for the scale
where 1t is not present, and II Is eX-
pensiye to let an orchard go unSprayed
where the pest is present, so make
sure about the presence of the pest
first.

Messages 81 q Word.

The Society islands, far away in the
South seas, now have wireless COM
munication with the outer world, a
radio station having been opened by
the French government on the island
of Tahiti last winter.
Communication with the United
States will be by way Of Samoa and
New Zealand, and thence by cable to
San Francisco. 1t is expected that
the cost of messages to the United
States will exceed 81 word. Later
on 1t is hoped to reduce this more
than half by sending the messages

KEEP DAIRY UTENSILS CLEAN
Steam Can Be Utilized Effectively IN
Washing Different Vessels
Keep Covers Off.

Always have some good stiff brushes
that will lit the different utensils and
keep the seams in the tin absolutely
clean. If one has steam it may be
used very effectively in sterilizing the
utensils. After rinsing in scaldng wa
ter of sterilization with steam, place
the utensils in clean, sunny place to
dry. Do not wipe them with cloth
or stand them right side up on the
racks. The heat impaired by the hot
water or steam will cause them to dry
quickly and by being placed bottom
side up on the racks very little dust
and dirt can get on the inside OF the
utensils. Never put the covers on the
cans or pals after washing them.
There are few worse Odors than
fairly clean milk can that has been
shut up until II has become musty.

analyses of the vital organs of the
cows used in the experiments revealed
nothing abnormal. Considering the
fact that the strongest all,ali well wa
ter was used ii is reasonable to CON
clude that the alkali disease of COWS
is not produced by drinking alkali wa
ter.
This conclusion does not include wa
ter which at times collects in partly
dried-up ponds.
Such water is usually very strong
and COWS should not be permitted to
become so thirsty as to be forced to
drink 1t.

CALF REMAINING WITH DAM
Three Days Is Limit, Shorter Period
Being 3 ctter-CoIostram Milk Has
Laxative Effect.

The young calf should not remain
with its dam longer than three days.
A shorter time is better. The calf
should receive the first milk drawn
from the udder of its dam. This milk
is known as coloStrum milk. 1t has
a valuable laxative effect. If the
COW dies so that Tie colostrum cannot
be obtained, it is advisable to give
the calf Il dose of castor oil,

REMOVE CALF FROM MOTHER
Strong, Vigorous Youngster Can Very
Safely Be Taken Away After
One Good Filling Up.

The time of taking a calf from its
mother should be governed by the
condition of the calf. A strong, Wig
Orous calf can very safely be removed
after one good filling up; but it is a
distinct mistake to take a weakly,
poor-nourshcd calf from Its dam be-
fore three days or II week.
Common sense is worth many fixed
rules in handling stock--particularly
young stock.

ALKALI WATER NOT HARMFUL
Results Obtained in Experiments Con.
Quoted by Dairy Department OF
South Dakota College.

The dairy husbandry department OF
the South Dakota State college has
conducted experiments to determine
the effect of alkali water on dairy
cattle. The results of these expert
ments, as published in station bulle-
tin 147, show that the drinking OF
alkali water by dairy cows did not pro-
duce "alkali disease" or even the
slightest indication of it.

War Brings Autos to Crow Indians.

wal SNukOo ~ WV"
The British are anxious to secure
good horses for use in the present
war, and they are buying large num-
bers from the Crow Indians.
The Crows are the wealthiest OF the
northern Indian tribes and their
horses are the best.
The British are paying good prices
to the tribe, each horse fetching 500.
1t has become quite craze to spend
the money thus obtained in buying
motor cars. Even the poorest Crow
possesses from ten to twelve horses.
At the first opportunity he sells these
and buys car.
During the Boer war the British
army purchased thousands of the In
dian ponies. The animals were light,
but strong, and capable of great en-
durance. With the money from their
ponies, the Crows invested In thor
oughbred stations and mares, finally
possessing a remarkably fine strain.

EDITOR USUALLY THE GOAT.

The editor is usually the goat. Whether
it's home talent play for the benefit
of some organization or other, the launch
ing of new business college or some
other institution, the publisher gives his
space for publicity, prints the programs
and posters, and then when the returns
are all in the hotel proprietor has re-
ceived his money for the promoters
room and board bill, and so has the grocer
and baker and candestick maker and all
the rest of the creditors but the editor
is left to get his money, if he can-and he
usually can't. When it comes to collect
ing for services rendered the editor is a

RUMBLINCS ON THE
ALLEYS.

Last Friday the Wa. boys
appeared in their new jerseys
and rolled their first score
;; in the eighth century mark
whether this is due to the
jerseys or to the good bowl
ing of Schleuder is hard to
tell but Schnitte said, ''Well,
they cost enuf to win a game"
Well take your word for it,
Schmidt.
There was considerable noise
in the alleys when the Rex
and the Daniel Websters bowl
ed. The Rex team took :ad-
vantage of il and tried their
best to rattle their opponents,
whether it worked or not is
not certain but the fact re-
manned that they won the
match, taking two out of, the
three.
Monday evening the Beck's
ana the Telephones met to
battle for first place. When
the smoke blew over the for
mer were several pins shy of
winning and so had to be con-
tent with second honors. Beck
wants to make it a little more
interesting and so he ''let'
the Telephones win. We've
been on top long enuf," he
said. 'sSep" Guentner and
Elmer Backer rolled a five
gamematch last week for a
for a little side purse, "Beck"
won out by three pins in the
totals.
1t certainly is hard luck to
lose a game when one rolls a
high score. In the game be-
tween the Telephones and the
Becks, Reilly Dahm's threw
243 in the second game but
they lost by several pins, the
Beck's making over 900.

bound to take it's place among
the greatest motion picture
plays yet produced. 1t is an

Great Bear Valley, up in the
San Bernardino mountains of
Southern California.
Bear Valley is 5000 feet
above sea level and is reached
by a dog road over which
Rollin S. Sturgeon and his
Vitagraph players journeyed
to camp for six months while
filming this photoplay which

William Duncan, George
Holt and Nell Shipman are
the principls who enact the
drama of a girl whose mother
er is overpowered by a villain
and gives birth to a child in
the absence of her husband.
The daughter comes bravely
to the front to assume the re-
sponsibility OF the motherhood.
To preserve her own honor,
the girl, just before her father
returns, writes him that she
is going to the North woods to
meet her husband" The
ruse works we'll, for a young
man drifting down stream on
ahomeward journey from the
wilds beaches his canoe near
the girls's forest shelter; and
falls in love with her.
She prevails upon him through
his great love for her to pose
as her husband, and they 60
back home together to protect
the good name of the mother.
A marriage ceremony is per-
formed, but they live in sep

in which the archconspirator

and the girl who has been made
captive is freed by her sweet
heart. Thereafter, in the
glow of the burning rendez-
vous, the hero takes the girl
to his heart as wife in fact as
well as name, for in the passing
ordeals the violation OF the
mother becomes known to
him and his bride becomes free
to claim his love. Dog trains
