DISORDERS OF THE
 FAITHFUL DAIRY cow
Treatment of Noninfectious Gar. get Is Simple-Infectious
 Form Is Hard to Cure.

tBy F. B. HADLEY, Wisconsin College
 of Agriculture.)
 Garget makes an appearance every once in a while in cows which appar, ently are in perfect health. The milk in severe cases, is either stringy or otherwise altered in character when drawn and collects yellowish-colored sediment on standing. In less pro nounced cases there may be little wis. ible change in the milk, but an exami- nation would reveal large number of germs.
 Noninfectious garget is caused by bruises or other injuries, or by sud den congestion of blood in the udder as frequently occurs in heavy milkers and in heifers at first calving. Af. fected animals usually make a com plete recovery if given one and half pounds of epson salts and their feed is restricted to that of a succulent na- ture.
 The cause of infectious garget is a germ or germs. When many of them are present in the udder not only is the milk changed as mentioned above, but the udder itself becomes hot and sensitive to the touch.
 The importance of the infectious form of garget rests in the fact that 1t is usually not easily cured and has D tendency to recur. Furthermore the disease is easily conveyed to healthy COWS through the medium of the milk. CTS hands or contaminated material of any kind. unless precautions are taken to avoid the transfer of the germs.
 Temporary relief may be given by bathing the udder with hot water for one-half hour each morning and eve, ming. After thoroughly drying the sur. face of the udder warm cottonseed oil should be rubbed in with the palm of the hand.
 A complete cure is possible in most cases only by drying the COW off at once so that her system may be free to fight the disease-producing germs that are present in the udder

Arranging Irish Marriages.

Law Notes says that a case tried be- fore the recorder of Galway, Ireland, not long ago, revealed that marriages among the peasantry in the country districts are often arranged after a personal investigation has been made in behalf of one or the other parties to the match as to the means of the other. In the case before the court it appeared that the husband investi- gated the stock, goods and chattels on the farm belonging to his intended wife and was apparently satisfied, but later discovered that the sheep and other live stock were borrowed from neighbors to make a good showing on the occasion of his visit. The court held that it had no power to grant relief to the extent of annulling the marriage.

QUITE IMPORTANT
 TO APPLY MANURE
First Step in Maintenance of Pro- ductive Capacity of SoiI-
 Affords Better Filth.

Farm manure is one of the products of the North Dakota farm that is often neglected. Manure when properly ap- piled gives good returns. It has been found at the North Dakota experiment station that manure has given a re- turn of $1.40 per load and that was on the heavy Red River valley soils. 10 secure this result 1t was applied to corn crop, which it increased, as well as the wheat crops that followed it. Had it been applied directly to the wheat these good results would likely not have been secured In fact, it might have brought in the first crop a decrease instead of the 25 per cent in- crease.
 At the Langdon substation it was found that wheat following corn ma nured, ten loads to the acre, was Increased seven bushels more than wheat on similar corn ground, but not manured. And the next year barley grown on the same land was increased 11s bushels, and the good effects of the manure will extend to one or two more crops.
 The drier the climate the slower the manure decays and so the good effects rom 1t become available more slowly. When plowed under for corn the soil IS well packed on to the manure. which hastens it's becoming available.
 Pasture land that is to be plowed up soon is a good place to spread the manure. It stimulates the grass. and the manure decays some, so it is in good condition for being worked into the soil and for improving it when ploWed under. The pasture also has the advantage that the manure can be spread on it at any time. Meadow that is to be plowed up is also splendid place for applying the manure.
 It has been found that better re- turns are secured from the manure when light applications are made. Six to elght loads per acre is a good amount to apply.
 The application of manure is the cheapest means of returning organic or vegetable matter to the soil. and the maintenance of a good supnlv of oecaylng organic matter is the first ana most important step in the main tenance of the productive capacity of the soil. It gives the soil better tilth. increases the availability of the min erai elements of plant food and inn proves the water-holding capacity of the soil, ill addition to being a source or nitrogen as a plant food-North Da- kota Experiment Station.

Time Lock Universal.

Practically all the modern safe de- posits possess time locks. These timepieces operate from one hour to three days. When the doors are closed the timepiece is set, and on no account can the doors te reopened until the clock has run it's allotted time. The other week clerk overwound the timepiece at a well-known safe de- posit, with the result that the renters could not gain access to their safes until late in the afternoon.
 Anyone, of course, can hire a safe in public safe deposit by paying the necessary rent. Each renter is sup piled with his own key, and if he loses it his safe has to be broken open. for the company does not possess duplicate keys.

Status of Japanese Women.

While women now form a large pro portion of the wage earning popula- tion of Japan it is largely the result of economic conditions rather than an adoption of new theories as to wom ans place. But in the present state of affairs in Japan it is only economic independence that can save a woman from distasteful marriage, and often even the avidity to earn mere pit tance makes the greatest difference in a woman's life. Many progressive women declare their belief that every Japanese woman should be given training of commercial value for which there is a market, and point to the fact that even a thorough knowI- edge of English places a girl on sep arate plane, giving her weapon to defend herself in her fight for inde- pendence."

New Discovery in Iron.

Very pure iron in tubes and other forms is French factory's electrolytic product from basis of ordinary cast. iron. To cause deposition of iron on the surface, the negative pole is TO- tated in a solution of ferrous salt, which is kept neutral by iron turn ings placed at the bottom of the tank, and by adding iron oxide as depolari- ger. The electrolytic iron deposited very hard at first, becomes soft and malleable, with the giving of of some gas, on annealing. A rod being used as core, iron pipes are produced direct, and the production of sheet iron, with out rolling, is expected and is looked upon as very valuable for electrical machinery.

Party gowns are not given over to artlessness and simplicity these days. Keen-minded creators of styles turn loose playful fancy when they view them. Therefore gay frocks, made for the frivolous hours of their wearers, embody any amount of elaboration in their construction and trimming.
 But the bodice is no longer thing or shreds and patches, amounting to nothing much above the waist. It comes in for as much attention as the skirt. For several reasons the result brings home the fact that beauty is quite as beautiful when clothed as when merely adorned.
 Nets and laces, crepes and chiffons, posed over more nets and laces, or over foundations of chiffon taffeta or satin, provide the mediums for work. ing out the designers inspirations in these beautiful gowns. For more sub. stantial-looking frocks, light satins and chiffon taffeta fill the costumer's re- quirements with such good effect as is shown in the picture above

FORCES THAT ARE ETERNAL
Time and Love the Two Things With Which All on the Earth
 Must Reckon.

Time and love are the two forces that are eternal and ever new, that cannot be killed or erased. They move on in cycles for all eternity. Without love this great, beautiful world would soon wither and decay.
 Therefore love is the sum total of these things. It spells homes, fire sides, society and civilization. Look into the fireside lamps which should be kindled in every room in the home, and if you find the oil of love ebbing away hurry to replenish the lamps be- fore the f1ickering flame goes out
 Many serious faces tell the story of starving for love, the most precious and valued thing in the world. This means you, MT. Bachelor. If you are comfortable in your library you have no reason to pat yourself on the back because you feel that you can get on without the love which happy, sym pathetic companion can bring you. The time will come when the flickering embers will cast their shadows, show ing you the lost opportunities.
 The same advice holds for you, Miss Bachelor Girl. Do not let your ability and capacity of providing for yourself delude you into thinking that you are selfsufficient Your plans and aspira- tions may be all you need now, but the time may come when you will under stand that it is this thing called love which keeps woman's face soft and her heart young.

PEASANT WITH TRUE VISION
Traveller Heard Robert Burns Praise Washington, the American, for
 His Patriotism.

A traveller exploring the wild beau. lty of the Caves of Colzean in Scotland met young peasant, who astonished him by his poetic description of the scene, according to Hugh Miller 'Tales and Sketches" published in Boston half century ago. A discus sion of literature and philosophy, as we'll as nature, is concluded as fol- lows, an exchange remarks:
 Man said my companion, should love his species at all times, but it is i'll with him if in times like these he loves not his country more. The spirit of war and aggression is yet abroad; there are laws to be established, rights to be defended, invaders to be repulsed, tyrants to be deposed. And who but the patriot is equal to these things? We are not yet done with the Bruces, the Wallaces, the Tells, the Washingtons-yes. the Washingtons, whether they fight for us or against us-we are not done with them But we are getting ashamed of our coun. try, of our language, our manners, our music, our literature; nor shall we have enough of the old spirit left us to assert our liberties or fight our bat ties. Oh. for some Barbour or Blind Harry of the present day. to make us once more proud of our country.'
 l quoted the famous saying of Fletcher of Saltoun, Let me make the songs of country, and I will let you make it's laws"
 But here,' I said, Ifs our lugger stealing round Turnberry Head. We shall soon part, perhaps forever, and would fain know with whom I have spent an hour so agreeably, and have some name to know him by. My own name is Matthew Lindsay. I am a native of Irvine"
 And I,' said the young man, rising and cordially grasping the proffered hand, "am native of Ayr. My name is Robert Burns"

WONDERFUL INSECT IS FLY
Nuisance, and a Menace to Human Life, but We'll Worth the Most
 Careful Study.

Kill fly, but study him. He Is a wonderful creature, though a menace and nuisance, writes Garrett P. Serviss. His muscles are as strong as steel; his nerve action is as quick as lightning. If you were proportion- ately as strong as fly you could seize beam over your head with your hands. and, with two tons of iron fastened to your feet, easily raise your self, together with the attached weight, from the floor
 This calculation is no mere guess it is based upon experiments made by the Belgian naturalist, Felix Plateau, who harnessed insects and small ami mals of many kinds, in very ingenious ways, to ascertain their strength.
 Likewise, if fly were as big as a man, and retained his relative strength, he could kill tigers with his hands and split asunder the jaws of lions with much more ease than Sam son did.
 If you were as quick as a fly you could let an oncoming express train, travelling mile minute, come within foot of your nose and then dodge it. Strike at a fly that Is lazily circling with a playmate before your eyes and observe with what nonchalant ease he avoids your blow and instantly returns to his play.

Mysterious Vanished Race,

All that is ever likely to be known of the aborigines of Newfoundland has been printed by an antiquarian who has made these vanished people the study of his life. These mysterious people were. it appears, not Eskimos like some of the tribes in Doctor Grenwells parish" across the strait in Labrador The Eskimo has a squat body, fiat face and a nose hardly large enough to be called such. But this race was tall and long limbed while such skulls as have been pre- served show the bones of noses rather of the Roman than the Tartar sort.

deducted-was only S240, while on farms of over 160 acres the average was $1,575. From these and other fig ures which convey the same lesson, the investigators concluded that the small farm, carrying on a general farming business, labors under fixed ha .dicap that is inherent in it's size.
 This relation of the size of the farm to the opportunity for profit is declared in the bulletin already men, tioned to be of vital interest because of the notion which so widely pre- culture is the small farm. Numerous real estate promotion schemes are based on this idea. It is a distinct fallacy. Very small farms are diffi- cult to make successful anywhere, and it is only the exceptional man who is equal to the task They must al- ways be devoted to the most intensive types of farming, and the products of most kinds of intensive farming huctuate greatly in volume and price, so that the business is very insecure. The danger is greatly magnified If the small farm is situated a long dis tance from market, for prices for their products do not have to fall very far until the transportation charges wipe out all profits. Even in the vicinity of the markets these small farms succeed only in localities where they have distinct advantages for the particular type of farming which they follow"

Too Much for EnQineers.

Some forty years ago some English men proposed to dig a canal on the northwest coast of Africa, south of Morocco to admit the waters of the Atlantic into the Sahara desert. It was argued that great inland sea would thus be created and that ocean vessels might steam into Africa and pick up cargoes along the western Su dan.
 This fine idea was based upon the prevalent notion that most of the desert surface was much below sea level. It was discovered later that most of the desert stands high above the sea. It would take hard pumping to transfer much Atlantic water into the Sahara

It falls to the lot of the average mother to make a considerable part of the clothing worn by her small chil- dren, and usually she takes pleasure in the task. In January merchants all over the country present the new wash fabrics for spring, and they are an inspiration to the needlewoman. In the depth of winter the spring sew Ing for the children may be disposed of; for it Is the business of newspa- pers and journals to picture the ad- vance models shown by those who create the styles. With these and the new fabrics before her there is no difficulty in the way of the home dress maker.
 A little everyday dress of blue and white gingham in fine cross-bar pat tern is pictured at the right of the group above, trimmed with a very mar row and substantial embroidery edg- ing in blue and white. At the left the little afternoon dress is made of a thin cotton fabric with embroidered dots scattered over the surface. Tucks and narrow val lace edging are used in trimming.
 The gingham dress is made of a single piece of material folded cross wise at the center, where the neck is cut out. The sleeves are cut in one with the dress and are short, reaching

From Weekly Letter. United States De-
 partment of Agrculture)
 Under the conditions which prevail 'n the average American farm, the op- )ortunity for making a satisfactory profit varies directly with the number if acres farmed, according to farm management specialists in the depart ment of agriculture. This statement is substantiated by figures gathered in the course of a survey which has recently been made by the depart. ment of a portion of Chester county, Pennsylvania. This survey, in the opinion of the specialists, emphasizes what has been called the small-farm policy which is discussed at some length in bulletin soon to be issued, Farm Management Practice of Ches- ter County, Pennsylvania.
 In the territory surveyed, farms of from 30 to 40 acres required for each crop acre $15 worth of machinery on an average, as compared with less than $9 worth on farms of 16O acres and over. The smallsized farms need NN ohO IOAoO ioi S'ciy AiIo dSieo, as compared with one horse for more than 17 acres on the larger holdings. In spite of this increased investment per acre, the small farms were not so well equipped with labor-saving ma Chinery.

OYSTER MUST BE FROZEN
Only Way to Make Sure of 1t, Accord ing to Veteran Captain Who
 Ought to Know.

Now, who would think it would be der to place it in state of suspended animation? According to our human ideals, it would seem that even the liveliest and most exuberant of oysters would, in it's normal exist ence in a shell nailed down to a reef at the seas bottom, approach the cen dition of suspended animation" as nearly as anything could approach it. That certainly sounds like about the zero of activity.
 But take it from old Cap'n Ockers of West Sayville, who has hobnobbed with oysters all his life, they are a smooth lot. You may think that they're immobile, but just take your eyes off 'em a minute if you dare! The only way to make sure of 'em is to freeze 'em. Once into the ice box with 'em and their animation is sus- pended all right. But, on Cap'n Ockers' word, this Is the only way to be sure of making poft without dan ger of mutiny on the part of your catch
 We believe that, as was to be ex- pected from one whose years have been spent in such close communion with the deceitful bivalve, the Cap'n even has some theories regarding the possibility of translating it to i'm mortality through the process of re- frigeration. But the soul of the oyster is too esoteric a subject for us. We quit at suspended animation-in the stew.
