least Importance, Milking Machines Of
the tyne mentioned have cut the cost
of milking from so per cent to &C 2-3
per cent by saving wages.
On the debit side of the cash book
comes the cost of operating and main
tanning Milking Machine outfit. The
cost of operating plant of the vac
uum and atmospheric pressure type
is so small in comparison with the
great saving Of expense and time. and
the increased profits that it is prac-
tically impossible to compute the cost
at all. And, as to maintenance. the
only parts needing replenishment are
the rubber teat cup Innings and tubes
whose average life is from ten to eigh-
teen months and whose cost Is intiini-
tesimal.
The attitude toward Milking Ms
chimes Of the dairymen's good friend,
the COW, can only be Judged by com
pairing her actions and the amount
and quality of milk she gives under
hand milking and under machine
milking.
From the quietness with which al
most every COW stands while being
milked by the Milking Machine of
vacuum and atmospheric pressure
type, / am led TO remark that she
seems almost to bestow mother
love" upon the milking machine: and
the fact that her milk-how is increas-
ed and the quality of her milk i'm
proved. demonstrates. unquestionably
that she is thoroughly in favor Of
Milking Machines.
After having seen various types Of
mixers in operation, it is my opinion
that the most satisfactory and least
costly Milking Machine principle is
the 'one-pipe line-One tank-vac-
uum and atmospheric pressure" type,
such as the Empire Milking Machine,
for this machine is proof against in
jury to teatS and udders.
Considering the present difficulty of
hiring farm labor i'm addition to the
added profits and lessened inconven-
fences of machine milking. every
dairyman who is planning on '.tomor-
row and the day after that and the
years to come" should thoroughly ac-
quaint himself with the practice of
The Milking Machine, for the day is
coming when the dairy without
Mixer will not eXist-will not be able
to exist.

Vegetable Soup Thickenod with
Bread Crumbs.-1 quart of skim milk,
l cup bread crumbs, or large slices
stale bread, salt, small amount spin.
ach or outer leaves lettuce (not more
than 4 ounces), small slice onion.
Cut the vegetables into small pieces
and cook with the bread crumbs in
the milk in double boiler. If
large quantity is being prepared, as
in school lunch room, for example,
put the vegetables through meat
chopper. In this case slices of bread
may be ground with the vegetables, in
order to absorb the juice.

THINGS WORTH KNOWING

Dark and damp cellars should have
a sprinkle of chloride all around the
walls and in corners, as it is power
ful deodorant, and many diseases in
the home can be prevented by its use.
1t is quite inexpensive and within
each of all.
1t is very convenient to have n
board sprinkled with kitchen salt at
hand when ironing. The salt cleans
the irons.
To remove 4 rusty screw, first ap-
ply very hot iron to the head for a
short time. then Immediately use the
Screwdrivcr.
Bake your potatoes in Il wire dish
drainer. They bake evenly, require
40 turning and are easily removed
from the oven, all ut once.
Y TO give silk that is being washed
the sheen of new silk add just little
methylated spirits to the rinsing
water.

Two weeks ago in an early edi
tion of the Great County Builder
the types made us say "croquet"
instead of Crochet" and it
seems some of the early copies
found their way to Lamar. OF
course it was one on US. and we
expected Wallace of the Inter-
typings to put US on the grill,
but that the stolid and sphinx
like editor of the Sparks should
do so makes US wonder how the
war is going to come out, and
whether it would be cheaper to
burn wood or coal with Hoover
way off at Washington and Tam
many again in the saddle. La
ter: We've stocked up with a
thousand pounds Of wood.

AS some or many of our read
ers may not know the great big
part cotton plays in war matters
we quote for their Information
the folio wing war item: A
12-inch gun disposes a half bale
of cotton with every shot fired;
a machine gun in oper alton will
use up a bale in three minutes;
in u naval battle, like the one off
Jutland, over 5000 lbs. a minute
are consumed by each active war
ship; more than 10000 bales a
year are needed tn provide ab-
sorbent cotton for the wounds of
the injured; one change of ap-
parel for all the troops now en-
gagged in the war represents more
than million bales"

The transient trade of SPRING
field is something remarkable.
1t seems veritable fact that all
ruads-of emigrants from the
north and east and south. lead
to this mans town. The five
garages here give an ink'ing Of
this traffic. We have four res
taurants and three hotels. The
hotels turn off people every night
and the restaurants are all doing
q rushing business. 1t began on
a small scale four years ago, and
has grown in intensity and vol
uhe from that time to this. We
believe that no purely agricul-
tural inland town in the west
has had such an experience. We
have known railroad towns of two
or three thousand people with not
half the transient Accommodations
that Springfield has. Yes, its
remarkable, but it augers we'll
for old Baca county, as well as
meaning something for the fut-
ure of Springfield. The mean
ing of it all is that this is great
country. and that the people OF
the ctfete east are finding it out.
