BIG MONEY FROM PUREBREDS,
Interesting Comparison Made by I'LL.
nois Agricultural College on
Dairy Profits.

A comparison of the yearly incomes
of 124 farms where purebred bulls
were kept at the head of the dairy
herd, with 466 dairy farms where a
grade bull was used, has been made by
the Illinois Agricultural college.
The average farm income for the
first list of farms was $1,102 after de-
Quoting taxes, interest on investment,
etc. Where grade bull was used the
farm income was 1874. On SO farms
where scrub bulls were used the farm
income was only S243, or only half
enough to pay interest on the invest
ment, to say nothing about any pay for
the owners time.

YES! MAGICALLY!
CORNS LIFT OUT
WITH FINGERS

You say to the drug store man,
"Give me small bottle of freezone."
This will cost very little but will
positively remove every hard or soft
corn or callus from ones feet.
A few drops of this new ether COM
pound applied directly upon a tender,
aching corn relieves the soreness In
stantly, and soon the entire corn or
callus, root and all, dries up and can
be lifted off with the fingers.
This new way to rid ones feet OF
corns was introduced by Cincinnati
man, who says that freezone dries In
a moment, and simply shrivels up the
corn or callus without irritating the
surrounding skin.
If your druggist hasn't any freezone
tell him to order a small bottle from
his wholesale drug house for you.-adv.

back leg is driven through leaving the
pail platform level with the floor, and
projecting above to support the seat
at height convenient for the mixer.
A cross piece 6 inches by II inches
serves as a seat, and is secured on
top of the back leg with wood screw.
This stool removes the weight of
the pail from the mixers knees, yet
supports it in the same position. If
the COW should want to kick, the milk
er can shift all the weight to the back
leg, and swing the pail from beneath
the animal.

FORMULA FOR GRATING WAX
Resin, Beeswax and TaIlow-
Roll II Into Sticks.

There is nothing better than the old
and well-known formula of four
pounds resin. two pounds beeswax and
one pound tallow for grating wax.
Shave the beeswax into thin slices and
pulverize the resin so that the mate
rails will melt quickly when subjected
to heat. AS soon as the materials are
melted, pour the liquid into cold water,
then pull and work IL like molasses
candy, rolling 1t into sticks Ia inches
In diameter and six inches long. When
properly made, the wax has a good
grain, is tough and of q light yellowish-
white color.

HINTS FOR PLANTING TREES
Apples Require Much Space, While
Peaches and Plums Will Do With
Less-Use Good Soil.

Don't try to economize on space, I'M
less it is absolutely necessary. Apple
trees need plenty of room-40 feet
each way is none too much-although
it is possible to get good results much
closer by pruning and fertiliz-
ing. Peaches and plums do well 20
feet apart, but "a feet is better.
Trees should always be planted in
good soil. If your soil is shallow dig
hole at least six inches deeper than
the lowest roots of your young trees
foot Is better-and fill 1t in with
good dirt even If you have to haul
it from distance In q wagon. Make
the hole twice the diameter of the
spread of the roots. This means a
lot of work, but 1t will pay.
Loosen the subsoil in the bottom Of
the hole, the deeper the better, but loos-
en- it few inches, anyway, and
set the tree just the same depth
1t formerly stood. An inch or two deep
er will do no harm, but don't get 1t
too deep or it will smother. Sift the
good top soil around the roots and
don't start to tramp 1t until the roots
are covered. If tramped before they
are covered with soil the roots will be
injured-the dirt protects them. Leave
the dirt loose on top, although packed
beneath. Either slope 1t toward the
trunk or leave it level. Don't heap 1t
up around the base Of the tree. This
sheds water and may cause the roots to
get too dry.

Farmers Turn Miners.

With coal at high price, many
farmers in West Virginia with only a
hole in the ground and a team of oxen
have become real wuel kings. When
the price of the black diamonds began
to soar Indicating" operations were
started by farmers In all parts of the
state, and they have increased at an
enormous rate.
In many cases where farmer has a
small surface vein Of coal on his prop
erty he is able to operate his minia-
ture mine by himself or with the aid
of his sons.
In many instances, It Is reported,
they are digging the surface coal out
with mattacks and hauling 1t to the
railroads, where they are getting o
good price for their product.

GOOD HOMEMADE MILK STOOL
Device Intended to Hold Pail and
Provide Seat for Mixer Made
Out Of Fork Handle.

A homemade milk stool, serving to
hold the pail and provide a seat for
the mixer is made out of an old fork
handle and an inch board II inches
wide and feet long.
To make the stool cut board feet
long and 1 foot wide. With a draw
shave taper 1t to 6 inches wide at one
end. Two cleats, each A inches by 6
inches, are fastened crosswise of the
grain at the narrow end to prevent
splitting of the board. With an ex-
pansive bit or bridge auger, drill three
holes in which to insert the legs. The
two front legs are cut from an old
fork handle, and hold the pail plat

HANDY COVERED MILK PALS
More Important In Dirty Stable Than
In Clean One-Wire Gauze ls
Sometimes Used.

Covered milk pals are more neces-
sary In dirty than In clean stable.
Such pals are designed to reduce the
size of the opening and thereby ex-
pose less milk to the air and the dust.
In some cases, layers of cotton and
wire gauze are placed over the small
topped pail.
Careful trials have demonstrated
that 60 per cent less dirt and from %
to- 90 per cent fewer bacteria get into
the milk when covered milking pals
are used.

Little difference In effectiveness was

with 10 parts Of water, are also rec

DAIRYING INDUSTRY IN WEST
Small Farmer Is More Dependent Up,
on Sale Of Products Than Many
Are Ready to Admit.

No greater calamity could befall the
farmers of the West than the destruc-
ton of all places where cream or but
ter could be sold. The small farmer
is more dependent upon the sale of
dairy products than many are willing
to admit. The cream-receiving sta.
tions and the possibility of easy ship
ment to the creamery have for years
been the mainstay for many western
farmers and as such they win continue
to be.

thought we should not so to war with

So oid the President, and the Con-
gress.
Each was clearly entitled to his in
dividual opinion until such time as the
matter was definitely settled one way
or the other.
But with war actually in existence,
with our armies hurrying into the field
with our navy making preparationst to
sweep the seas, with our young men
rushing to the colors, there can be but
one oath for US to tread-absolute
loyalty to our country.
Whatever our beliefs may yhave been
in the past, our country now is atwar
and we must support it with our every
drop of blood and every dollar of
wealth.
Those who think that it will be sim
ply bluff at war-merely assemb-
ling of an army that will drill for u
few months and then go home-will be
woefully mistaken.

drawn it will never be sheathed until

Government officials have vol
Geo strong plea to the farmers
of the country to cultivate to the
limit. to the end that we may not
be hampered by a shortage in
food supplies. The manufacture
ing interests of the country will
supply the vast quantities Of
arms, ammunition and equipment
needed. But food does not grow
where no seed has been planted.
and without food no army can
fight and no people can exist.
Therefore we ask the people of
our own community to arise to
the occasion and produce every
ounce of foodstuff that is within
our power. AS an incentive TO
the people of this town. why can
not the city council give the pc o.
pie the right to use as much wa
ter as they need. at the minimum
rate. to encourage our citizens to
plant gardens and help increase
the food supply.
We may not all serve in the
ranks. but we can demonstrate
our loyalty and our devotion to
our country by needing the plea
of the president in an increased
production of food supplies.
Let US not have an acre that is
not under cultivation or in pas
tureage. Let US not haye even q
back yard or vacant lot that
is not producing something. Pa
triotism lies here jus. as strongly
as it does on the battle line.
