In an article in Farm and Fireside,
the national farm paper published at
Springfield, O.. a writer says:
Give the hired mans family a
chance to so places-to go to town
once a week, to attend church, to take
part in tho neighborhood socials and
meetings. 1t will mean planning and
foresight, and in some cases a little
sacrifice on the part of the farmers
family, but it is worth the cost.
"A good many farmers hate to make
improvements in the tenant house, and
the result is that it often gets terribly
uninviting, and even uncomfortable,
before repairs and improvements are
made. We try to paint and paper our
tenant house often enough to keep it
looking fresh and neat and we consult
the taste of the hired mans wife when
we do it. 1t pays in the added care she
gives to her housekeeping. We see that
the windows are well screened and the
walks are kept in condition.

How to Overcome Sticky Butter

soft for working and printing. had
been unable to buy cottonseed meal,
which Il generally feed to my cows for
the principal protein part of their ra-
TONS and instead had to use gluten.
Cottonseed meal has a tendency to
make the butter firmer, while I find
that gluten is the cause Of the butter
bothering by being too soft,
when I washed the butter with the
wash water about six degrees colder

than the temperature of the butter
milk, the butter was so soft that even
with slow turning of the churn it had
a tendency to gather in large Jumps.

white streaks in it when finished.
"But thru experimenting I found
that having the wash water down as

Maxine MANY investigations.

The entrance Of the United States
into the great war has stimulated the.
interest in military history in this
country. Several members OF the staff
of the State Historical Society of Iowa
are engaged during the present sum-

the military history Of Iowa. One
member of the staff has made care

scription of troops in this state during
the Civil war. Another is endeavoring
to find out how the finances of the
state were conducted during the same
struggle and how the war affected in
dustries ana business enterprises in
Iowa. The Spirit Lake massacre Is the
subject on which another member of
the staff is working. Still another is

At the close of the Civil war the
records Of the war department re-
vealed the fact that Iowa had been
called upon for 1881 troops and had
furnished 76242. according to DR.. John
E. Briggs, of the research staff of the
State Historical Society. The report
of Adjutant General Baker. of Iowa,
showed that 1925 enlisted men We're
reported to the war department, while
1884 had not been reported, making
the total number Of men furnished 49,
059. While these figures would seem
to indicate that Iowa had not con-
tributed its full share of men to the
war, it must be remembered that all
the volunteers from this state up to
June, 1864, except those composing the
First regiment, were enlisted for three
years. This was not true Of all the
volunteers from other states. If Iowa's
total quota were reduced to three.
