ENEMIES COME WITH SUCCESS
One Will Not Seem Right to Any if
He Does Not Seem Wrong to
Many, Declares Writer.

You don't make real success with
out making real enemies. Tou cannot
hold strong position without strong
opposition. You won't seem right to
any if you don't seem wrong to many,
says the Labor Chronicle.
A useful life can't be entirely peace
full and carefree.
You must do your duty as you see
1t.
Every earnest man in every genera
ton has paid the price of individuality.
You can't dodge.
The greater you are the greater the
penalty of your progress. The farther
you go, the wider your range, the more
you increase the points Of contact with
which you must reckon, and, there
fore, you multiply your battles against
misconception and SANDER and envy
and malice.

BARGER is MANAGER AGAIN
Pitcher Is Seventh Leader Team Has
Had Since Mike Finn PiIoted
That Organization.

Pitcher Ezra Barger, who acted as
manager of the Memphis team in the
latter part of 1916, when George Mo-
Rarity was stricken with a fever, Is
back on the job again, having been put
in charge of the team after Mike Don
lin quit last week. Barger is the sew
enth manager the Chicks have had
since the 1914 season. when Mike Finn
piloted the team. Bris Lord started In
1915. Dolly Stark started in 1916, and
Donlin started 1917. Lord was the
only one to last a full season. Mori-
arity succeeded Stark in mid-season,
Barger succeeded Moriarity, Donlin
succeeded Barger, and now it is Barger
again until another change is made.

MILKING SHORTHORN
DUAL-PURPOSE COWS
Superior to Farmer Who Desires
Good Mess of Milk Along
With Ability to Fatten.

Milking Shorthorns are identical
with the beef Shorthorn so far as
color is concerned. They vary all the
way from red to white, with numer-
Gus roans. The milking Shorthorn
usually presents the rather rectangu-
lar shape of the beef Shorthorn, but
is somewhat inclined to be more an
gular.
The milking Shorthorn is superior
or inferior to the other dairy breeds
accordingly as dairy performance is
of greater or less Importance. The
breed, or more correctly strain, is not
as highly developed as a mich ami
NAL as are the specialized dairy
breeds. 1t properly fills the place Of
a dual-purpose COW, or a cow for the
farmer who desires good mess Of
milk along with ability to fatten
readily and produce a good market
able carcass.
The farm condition under which q
breed must be kept, the market facili-
ties, the likes and dislikes Of the
owner, etc., are all factors that de-
termine the desirability or undesira-
bility of any particular breed. Certain
conditions demand one breed and 9th
ers are best for another.

(By p. G. HOLDEN, Former Dean of
Iowa Agricultural College,
In good farming allow nothing to go
to waste.
On many farms every year grass and
weeds around buildings, in barn lots,
along fences and roads, in corn or
stubble fields, go to seed and become
waste material. These weeds could be
turned to good account if there was
bunch of sheep to eat them.
No farm animal will respond more
readily to care and feed than sheep.
They need but little attention if such
as they require is given them at the
right time.
There is a worldwide shortage Of
sheep: The consumption of mutton is
on the increase. The wool supply of
the world is about exhausted. Fat
lambs and wool bring good figures. Not
on account of the war, but from a
genuine demand of the people. There
is wonderful interest in sheep-growing
everywhere, but the demand for NUT
ton and wool is so great that producers
cannot meet it. There should be sheep
on every farm.
Sheep need a change Of pasture.
Turning them from one field into an
other furnishes this change and keeps
the sheep healthy.
Expensive housing is unnecessary.
Warm shelter is essential only when
the lambs are very young. The roof is
the important part of the sheep
house. Keep the sheep dry during the
winter season and the fleece will pro-
vide the warmth. A bunch Of good
ewes will return good profits. Their re-
Quirements are simple and their re-
turns in fleece and fat lambs will sur
prise you.
There is no better winter feed for
the ewes than good silage and alfalfa
hay. A good eve will give more milk
for the feed consumed, than will the
best dairy COW. Her lamb will do the
milking, and by converting the milk
into fat lamb, the farmer can get much
more per 100 pounds for the ewes
milk than for the cows, and in addi-
ton, the eve furnishes a fleece each
year to sell. .
Care should be taken not to feed
sour or moldy silage to sheep. 1t will
kill them. Large ewes raising lambs
can be fed sweet silage up to four or
five pounds per day, after they have
become accustomed to it. During the
winter before the lambs arrive, the
ewes, If in good condition at the start,

An AlI-around Surprise.

When the first shipment Of frozen
eggs had arrived, their extreme hard
ness astonished the brokers, and gen.
tleman calling at brokers' Office was
amazed to see him taking aim at the
wall with an egg. ~
"What the dickens are you doingT
he asked.
But the man let drive. the only re-
suit being q slight dent In the wall.
The thing being explained to him,
he took couple Of eggs and put them
IL his trousers pocket. intending to
startie his wife with them. Arriving
home, he waited till the family were
seated at dinner and then banged one
of the eggs at the new wallpaper.
But the smile quickly faded from his
face. The egg had thawed.

BEES ARE GREATEST
FARM MONEY MAKERS
One Hundred Hives More Valu-
able Than 80-Acre Farm,
Says Minnesota Expert.

One hundred hives of bees are
worth as much, cor even more, than an
8O-acre farm, says Francis jaeger of
Minnesota university farm, st. Paul.
For capital invested and labor re-
quired, adds Mr.. jaeger, bees are far
the greatest money-makers one can
keep on the farm. One hundred
pounds is a fair average production
under good management of the bee
ward. At this rate 100 hives would
produce 10000 pounds of honey in one
year. This, at ten cents a pound,
would give a return of $1,000 for one
year.
None of this has to be used to pay
for feed for the bees, for all their food
and honey comes from the flowers OF
the roadsides, woods, and meadows.
Further, little or no rent is required
for the land, for the beehives can be
placed along roadsides and in meadows
where the bees have food at their very
doors.
The only large expense is for equip
ment such as hives and supers, and
this equipment will last lifetime. 1t
can be supplied for $500. This means
yearly charge of only about SIS.
The bees can be obtained free by
catching swarms in summer. Then by
the use of purebred Italian queens,
these swarms can be multiplied into
purebred apiary.
The total annual cost Of the bees
for one year then is less than $40 ex-
elusive of labor. The actual labor re-
uuired is worth S134 at the rate of
S4OO per year, for only one-third OF
the time of one man is needed, ac-
cording to Mr.. lager, who finds that
one man CAN easily care for 300 hives.
This leaves net profit of $846 for one
year.
