proud OF the contestants she sent

a place. Miss Helen Gould received
third place in augmentation; Miss

place in dramatic decIam alton; and
Mis- Virginia Howiett WIS placed as
second in the oritoricaf defamation,
The fact that NO students from Delta

The war is alright, because it does

Speaking of war, has it ever occur
red to you that life is very serious
battle, by itself. The youth has all
the allurements and temptations, bait
ed by his own passions, and in most
cases without judgement to combat or
force of will to resist. Hence the
very foundation Of life is "unprepar-
edness." Then the real battle comes
on. if life is spared. The marriage
and giving in marriage; the respons-
ibility of family; of living the life
over again in watching their lives;
the battle with fate; the constant fight
with merciless competition; the guard
ing against accident, illness and death
Life is not funny proposition" it is

: THE STROLLER ]

A Holstein calf of tender age as a
rule exhibits little tendency to revolt
at conditions. Daily on the streets of
Watertown may be seen crates or
wooden cages being transported via
wagon, buggy or Ford, and said crates
or cages each contain an animal,
which, as the frightened city woman
said who encountered one in the
woods, lis just like a COW only small
err"
If the calf has any protest coming,
you rarely hear about it. He or she
gazes out on the world in philosoph-
ical manner, and awaits whatever fate
may have in store with calm de-
meanOr.
Usually, SO far as Watertown is con-
cerned, the last of the Holstein calf
let is seen as he awaits the next turn
of fate's wheel in front of an express
office, and it was under the latter con-
ditions that one of the little strang-
els from the rural districts cut up so
as to get into print and create di-
version on Second street
The other day, all was calm around
the local office of the American Elk
press company, when suddenly ter
rifle crash rent the atmosphere Wis
ions of bombs dropping from the sky
fitted through the minds of AL burst,
agent, and John Carey, messenger, and
the former at once placed a setting Of
goose eggs in the safe out of harms
way, while the latter peered into the
street to gather whatever information
that was to be had
What the messenger saw almost
frOze him with horror, for was not a
harmless Holstein calf rending his
cage limb from limb in an attempt to
escape. And suddenly the youthful bo-
vine in measure succeeded, and free
ing part of the apparatus on which a
calf runs, started down the street with
the ruins of the crate hanging to the
balance of his anatomy.
Summoning all his courage in this
extremity, Carey the messenger bound
ed out the door and started in pur-
suit. Acting on the spur of the mo-
ment, AL burst, the agent, grabbed a
paste-pot, brush and some labels, and
started in pursuit also, thinking
shrewdly that if the calf was already
on it's way, that he could get close
enough to stick on label, express
charges might thereby be saved
Had the pursuit kept up, the calf
might have ran to the end of the
street, knocking over the soldiers
monument III the park on the way
and winding up by knocking over a
box car in the stock yards. Happily,
however, spectators lent a hand and
assisted by burst and Carey, the ami
NAL was captured, and a terrible cal
amity averted.
Again the calf stood in front of the
express office, and calmly gazed out
on the world and the traffic thereof,
apparently none the worse for wear

GOOD MEDICINE FOR FOWLS
On Account of High Price of Perman.
ganate of Potash Substitute Is
Sought by Poultry Men.
(Storrs Experiment Station

(Storrs Experiment Station)
Many poultry men have been using
permanganate of potash to prevent the
spread Of colds and other catarrhal
diseases. During the past two years
this product has risen in price from so
cents to $3.50 to So per pound; thus
it is not surprising that a good substi-
tute is being looked for.
One authority suggests the use Of
bluestone or copper sulphate, which
can be used as follows: Dissolve four
ounces of the bluestone in a quart of
water, this to be known as a stock So
luton. Add one ounce of this solu-
ton to each gallon Of the drinking wa
ter. This can perhaps be we'll used for
a short period, but should not be too
long continued.
Furthermore, one ought to use en-
ameled or earthenware vessels, as the
copper sulphate solution may produce
undesirable chemical changes when
used in galvanized pans.

GUINEA FOWL is PROFITABLE
Where Guineas Are Being Raised
for Meat Purposes.

Raising guinea fowls in Kansas is
profitable, according to N. L. Harris,
superintendent of the Kansas State Ag-
ricultural college poultry farm.
Large farms are now being estab-
lished where-guineas are raised for
meat purposes" said Mr.. Harris. 1.-THE
eggs are small and consequently are
of little value commercially.
Guinea fowls are easy to raise.
They are noisy and good fighters and
are not subject to the attacks of
hawks.
There is a good market for guinea
fowls. The meat of the young guineas
resembles that of prairie chickens and
wild ducks. The clubs and stylish
cafes use the guineas as a substitute
for ducks, prairie chickens, quail, and
other game which the laws make it i'm
possible for them to secure"
