HANDLING MILK In SUMMER
Whether Intended for Table, Cream.
cry or Market, 1t Must Be Sweet
to Bring Best Price.

It is no trick at all to keep milk
sweet in cold weather. It may stay
in the sun half a day in December
without any damage. but In June and
July it must be handled very are
fully. Whether the milk or cream is
intended for the table. the creamery,
or the milk market, it must be sweet
if it is to bring the best price.
To keep milk sweet just two simple
things must be very carefully looked
after: (1) it must be cooled as COM
pletely and quickly after milking
as possible, and (2) absolute cleanli-
ness of pals, pans, and cows must be
secured. If this is done, thunder
storms will no longer sour the milk.
The warm, damp weather which we
have just before thunderstorms really
does tend to cause milk to sour if it
has not been properly cared for.
This souring takes place because lit
tile invisible plants called bacteria get
ainto it in dirt or by lurking in the cor
sners and seams of poorly cleaned pals
and cans. The remedy is plain. Keep
tine bacteria out by using seamless
pals and cans and seeing that abso.

Each In His Place.

Three men went to the worldwide war,
Each worked in the place he found,
One went out on the battlefield,
One to increase the harvest yield,
And one to the mill in town.
Three men rose as the sun came up,
Each brushed the sleep from his
brow,
One fell into his place at drill,
One took his bucket and went to the
mill
And n put his hands to the pillow.
Three men toiled when the sun was
high,
A dust from the struggle rose,
One drove the enemy down to defeat,
One furnished ratlons of bread and
meat
And the other made their clothes.
The three lay down in the quiet night,
The day had been nobly won,
For one had finished his bit at the
mill, -.
One had toiled on his farm on the hill
And n had stayed by his gun.

VENTILATION OF DAIRY BARN
Better Health of Animals Is Assured
by Supply OF Fresh Air-king
System Described.

More of us every year are building
barns with ventilating flues Or put
ting fiues into stables already built.
Fresh air means better health in herds.
The system described by F. 81. King,
the Wisconsin authority on ventila-
ton, never has been o%utclassed. It is
the natural way.
In illustration, the movement of the
air is shown by arrows. The pure air
comes in above the animals and the
foul air is taken cut through the out
take shafts which have their openings
down near the floor and extend up
through the roof or to the cupola.
Some builders u the shafts straight
up through the roof, others run them
up to- the roof and then over to the
cupola, and some join the lower shafts
at the ceiling and then use but one
main shaft to the roof at each end
az shown here.
The galvanized metal shaft is pre-
ferred by most dalrymen who have
used this sort of ventilating system.

TREE SURGEON LIKE DENTIST
Cavity Must Be Cleaned, Treated With
kntiseptic, and Then Filled
With Concrete.

The treatment of cavities in trees,
caused by decay, is not fundamentally
different from that of dentistry, though
the tree surgeon is not so much down
in the mouth" as the dentist. All de-
caying matter must be cleaned out,
right down to solid living tissue. The
cavity is then treated with an anti
septic to prevent further decay, and
the whole (likewise the hole) filled
with concrete and in such manner as
to exclude air as much as possible.
The tree then begins to heal over the
edges of the wound to the concrete.
Sometimes metal has been used for
covering cavities and with good re-
suits. Elastic cement, asphalt and

Beauty Demanded in Suburbs.

"Beauty is q necessary flctor in the
development Of suburban property"
says H. A. Jones, q Detroit real estate
man. "City people who move out to
those communities which Ire sure to
surround Detroit as the city develops,
will expect city convenience and rapid
transit to their employment, but they
will also expect something of country
pleasures.
Therefore no suburban property
unless laid out with the ida Of beau
ty in mind, is likely to become fully
built up. People will not have their
homes squeezed into 30-foo lots, with
no parks, trees or Landscape beauty,
when they have gone ava. from the
heart of the city just to &c such sur
roundings."

In Her Mothers Home, Says This
Georgia Lady, Regarding Black
Draught. Relief From Head
ache, Malaria, Chills, Etc.

Ringgold, Ca Mrs. Chas. Castor,
of this place, writes: 81 am a user
of Thedford's Black-Draught; in fact,
it was one Of our family medicines.
Also in my mothers home, when /
was a child. When any Of US child
rem complained of headache, usually
caused by constipation, she gave US
a dose Of Black-Draught, which would
rectify the trouble. Often in the
Spring, we would have malaria and
chills, or troubles of this kind, we
would take Black-Draught pretty reg
ular until the liver acted we'll, and
we would soon be up and around
again. We would not be without it,
for 1t certainly has saved us lots Of
doctor bills. Just a dose Of Black
Dcaught when not so we'll saves a
lot of days In bed"
Thedford's lack -Draught has been
in use for many years in the treat
ment Of stomach, liver and bowel
troubles, and the popularity which 1t
now enjoys Is proof of Its merit.
If your liver Is not doing its duty,
you will suffer from such disagree
able symptoms as headache, bilious
ness, constipation, indigestion, etc.,
and unless something Is done, serious
trouble may result.
Thedford's Black-D raught has been
found a valuable remedy for these
troubles. 1t Is purely vegetable, and
acts in a prompt and natural way,
regulating the liver to its proper
functions and cleansing the bowels Of
impurities. Try 1t. Insist on Thed.
