DEATH DUE TO EXHAUSTION
Man Who Succumbs to Exposure lie
Not Really "Frozen," as 1t Is
Generally Understood.

During the deep sleep which follows
extreme fatigue the sensitiveness of
the nervous system is greatly reduced,
and it becomes unable to perceive the
lowness of temperature. The uncon-
scious sleep gradually passes into the
Inconsistencies of collapse. Accord
ing to the popular belief such a man
dies "frozen to DEATH" but as mat
ter Of fact he was killed long before
his temperature fell to zero.
What really killed him was the re-
duction Of the activity of his tissue,
which always follows the loss Of nerv-
GUS control. AS result there was
less and less chemical change accom-
panied by the production of heat, and
at an internal temperature of about 6S
degrees life ceased.
That Is why, as experience has often
shown, the weary traveller who gives
way to the imperative desire to sleep
on the line of march Is doomed to
death when he has no adequate pro-
lection from extreme cold.

ROADS
GOOD ROADS HELP CHILDREN
Improved Highways Of Great senefit
to Them In Going and Coming
From Country Schools.

The rural population is more willing
to support better schools today than
at any previous time. 1t is being re-
allied that all educational activities or
agencies must be more or less cor
related, and, more than all else, that
they must be more accessible to the
children. In many counties where
bad roads prevail, most Of the schools
are of the antiquated one-room va
riety. They are usually located along
bad roads which, during the winter,
when the schools are usually in ses-
sion, become so nearly impossible as
to make 1t difficult for the children to
reach them. This condition causes
irregular attendance and restricts the
educational opportunities of the child.
Not only this, but it often impedes the
economic consolidation Of these small

FEEDING sILAGE TO CALVES
Best Results Obtained by Giving Some
Other Feed Rich In Protein, Such
as Alfalfa Hay.

JBy PROF. A. i. HACKER, lincoln,
Neb)
S;llage is o splendid ration but not
complete. To get the best results you
should have some feed to go with 1t,
which is strong in protein, such as al
falfa hay, clover hay, oil meal or cot
tonseed meal. Cottonseed meal is the
balance for corn silage. Here is
great feeding problem in nutshell.
Good feeding means to supply nutri-
ents with their required nourishment
at the least possible cost. The re-
CURED nourlshment means supply
of dlgestible carbohydrates and pro-
TEN in proper proportion.
Corn silage is the cheapest known
form of OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES, cot
tonseed meal and clover furnish a
cheap form of protein. A thousand
pound steer can consume about 80
pounds of corn silage per day. With

Not Be Maintained In Center

If you have ever ridden along a
country road which has been worked
to peak in the center so that your
load tilted one way while you tried to
keep your balance by fitting the other,
you know what the wrong kind of road
dragging is.
Roads SO dragged should be reported
to the road supervisor, or the county
engineer, Such roads are positively
dangerous.

er schools into larger, stronger graded
schools, with high school courses,
directed by competent principal and
corps of teachers.
On the other hand, In counties
which have improved their roads, the
schools are easily reached. the aver
age attendance greater, the efficiency
largely increased and economic con-
solIdation made possible. Regular at
tendance at school means consistent
and regular growth Of both school
and pupil, and consolidation Of schools
means a maximum of efficiency at a
minimum of cost. 1t is also note
worthy that there Is a marked tend
ency for the consolidated school to be-
come the social and intellectual CEN
ter Of the community. Most modern
rural schoolhouses are so constructed
as to serve the community as gather
ing places for various kinds of public
meetings, and where vans are used to
convey the children to school during
the day they are frequently pressed
into service to haul the farmers and
their wives to institute work, lectures,
or entertainments at the schoolhouse.
The consolidated school becomes a
sort of community center to which all
educational and social activities con-
verge, and in order that it may pro-
perly perform that function all of the
highways leading to 1t should be SO
improved as to render 1t readily &C.
cessible throughout the year.

HANDY OFFICE FOR FARMER
Room In Farm Home Should Be Con-
sidered Necessity Rather Than
Luxury-ldeal Makeup.

If you are planning to build farm
home, make 1t complete by including
in your plans space for an office. Such
q room In the farm home should be
considered more as q necessity than
MS luxury.
The business farmer should have a
place in which to look over, and take
care of his mall, to file his business
documents, to keep his agricultural
papers and books, and to receive his
business callers. Every farm home
is supplied with a room In which to
receive social guests; why not one for
business guests?
The farm office should have an out
side entrance, plenty Of light, and an
inside entrance. BY all means, 1t
should be cheerful and never allowed
to take on a stuffy appearance from
an overdose of furniture, pictures, or
plants.
The ideal farm office is furnished
with a fiat top desk and filing case
rather than a roll-top desk and pigeon
holes. The tendency to stick things
away is thus, to a certain degree, over
come. 1t also contains a sectional
bookcase, strong, comfortable chairs,
typewriter and place for hanging
coats and hats.
Men bent on a business deal will
reach an agreement easier and more
quickly In a private place where inter-
ruptlons are not necessary, where ref
erences and papers are at ones ell
bow, and where business atmosphere
pervades the surroundings.
