Always TauuinQ Round,

A child, whose mother had endeav.
ored to impress upon her tender mind
the fact that God was ever in her
presence, became annoyed at the cat
one day for following her about the
house. Stamping her little foot and
shaking her tiny finger in defiance at
the poor cat, she said: Now you go
back-it's bad enough to have God
tagging me wherever go without you
doing it, too!"---Zim,, in Cartoons

Divided PRAYERS,

It was just before Christmas and
Tommy was praying for Santa Claus

wanted. Finally mother said: Il am
afraid you are asking for too much at
one time" The next night he ended
his prayer with the usual list, then
added: And please bring me big
dog and cart; l will pray for the har-
ness tomorrow"

After a Bad Day.

If you are weary after a fatiguing
day, on reaching home take ten min
utes' rest lying prone on the back.
When you rise cleanse the face with
cold cream, rubbing lightly across the
lines and in an upward direction to
correct sagging Of the muscles. A
cloth wet in very hot water should
then be applied, followed by several
applications of cold water. You will
be surprised to find yourself quite
reiuvenated.

Familiar Remark.

Our second child had red hair, and
whenever we took him out someone
would remark about it. When the
baby was two years old we were CIV

for the guests to arrive l was putting

baby's hair. He looked up at me and
said: Il pose de lady will say, 'Wher'

Gathering Food for Bees.

A clever scheme, that appears to
have originated in Scotland, is to
gather pollen from flowers with a
vacuum cleaner for use as food for
bees. The heather on wide stretches
of moors provides ample supplies, and
it Is said that in some places the
young bees were mostly reared on this
pollen.

FACTS SECURED BY MEANS
OF CONTEST RECORDS

The reports from ten associations
In the state that have completed one
to four years work reveal these facts:
Three TO six cows IN herds OF four
teen to twenty cows are entirely un-
profitable; In the average herd OF
twenty cows the five best cows return
three to four times the net profit that
the five poorest cows return; and in
herds OF sixteen or less cows the per-
centage OF Improbable cows Is high
or than In herds OF twenty-five TO for
~ cows. This last statement which all
OF our associations show 10 be true
should mean a great deal TO the aver
age dairyman, for Il IL he that has
the average size herd and who feels
that while dairying IL his principal
line of work yet he Is not Justified In
buying a silo; In paying even the
small sum OF Sl.25 TO know whether
COW Is any good or not; IN taking
any good dairy literature; In using
pure bred dairy bull aud Il is he
that will say that he knows his cows
because lie has only small herd and
can watch the amount Of milk In tho
pail and by the color OF Il tell how
good Il is These men are constant
ly pulling downward on the banner
OF more profitable dairying In all It's
phases and for their own personal
good and because OF their practices
and the influences OF such should
change their methods or get out and
stay out of dairying. Twelve OF such
men were called upon in one day
very recently and requested to join
COW testing association being ef-
fected In their community, and brief
ly here is their method OF operating:
Seven we're using grade ShoTthOrn
bulls. two pure bred Shorthorn bulls
as their dairy sires, One each was
using an Angus. Hereford and a
grade Jersey. One of the twelve had
a silo under construction Two had
milk houses. Only one could see any
possible value OF a COW testing asso-
citation, the remainder all expected to
sell out as "there is no money in
dairying,"

ONE s. BILL WORTH $500.
How one Five Dollar William Paid
S20O.OO Worth of Debts During
National Pay-Up Week.

Winfield. Iowa, carried on an ex-
pertinent during the first National
Pay-Up Week and demonstrated to
the great surprise OF the committee
which had il in charge. what one five
dollar bill will do when it is kept
moving paying up debts, This five
dollar bill was marked with a slip
OF paper stating, "This is a Pay-Up
Week five dolalr bill. This five
dollar bill is to be used only for pay
ment of accounts. Accept il and go
at once and pay some one else. Sign
your name so we can see how many
dollars in accounts it will pay in one
week" At the end of the week the
bill was found, the names counted
and, to the surprise of the committee,
fifty-eight names had been signed,
showing that the total debts paid
were $4,000. This shows what
money will do when IT is kept in cir
culation and also demonstrates the
Importance of National Pay-Up Week
as a time when accounts are squared
and states wiped clean for a new
start.

II trust that the voters OF the state
will assist In raising the standard Of

cation is central. the interest OF the
people OF Pendleton In education
