LIFE AND CHARACTER READING.
NOVEMBER s.


=
Tins birthdate gives very strong char
acterlstics for good and evil, and unless
well under control, will make a wreck
Of life. The weaknesses Of this nature
are stubbornness, anger and jealousy.
These must be controlled or life viii
end miserably.
A person Of this birthdate should
strive to live above the animal plane
Of existence and develop his higher
nature.
Intense love OF praise and fattery is
another weakness OF this nature. Every
effort should be made to conquer the
lower nature, because the governing
planet Mars gives great power and
magnetism, which works equally well
for good and will bring great success
If used I'm the right direction.

cOOPERS AT HOME
Town on Otsego Lake Bears
Family Name of Novelist.
Here the Noted Writer Gained IIfs
spiration to Execute Works That
Brought Him Fame.

With the arrival of solitary horse
nan at the shores of Otsego lake in
New York begins the history of Coop
arstown. He was William Cooper, of
4 Buckinghamshire family that came
to America from England in 1873, and
he founded the town which bears his
name. Leaving his home in Pennsyl-
vania in 17S5, at the ago of thirty-One,
he investigated the region round about
Otsego lake with the intention of
founding there home for himself
and village for others. In January,
1908, he took possession, in associa-
lion with Andrew Craig, of large
tract of 29,350 acres, soon afterward
buying out his partners share and
becoming sole owner. Settlers began
to arrive, and in 1888, Cooper erected
home for himself. 1t stood on Main
street, where is now the entrance to
the beautiful and extensive Cooper
estate.
This William Cooper was the father
Of james Fenimore Cooper, who in his
transfer to his new home at the age
of thirteen months was the impressive
witness of an amusing family differ
ence. 1t seems that when William
Cooper had completed arrangements
for the transfer of his family from
Burlington, N. j., to Cooperstown, his
wife positively refused to go. She
remembered the wilderness which she
had visited three years before and she
preferred the well established society
and congenial friends of her old home
to the discomforts of pioneer settle
ment. The conveyance was ready and
waiting, her husband urged her to give
in, but she sat firmly in chair in
the library of her Burlington home
and refused to bulge.
The circumstances Of this family
disagreement are pleasantly narrated
by Rev. Ralph Birdsall, rector Of
Christ church, says the Boston Tran
script, in his delightful little volume
which he calls ''The Story of Coopers-
town." If Mrs. Cooper was a strong
minded woman, Mr.. Cooper was no
less a strong-minded man. HE seized
the chair" says Mr.. Birdsall with
his wife in it, and putting her aboard
the wagon, chair and all, began the
long journey to Otsego. Thus VIII
liam Cooper carried his point, while
his wife carried hers, for she Travelled
the whole distance in the chair from
which she vowed she would not move.
The chair itself, sacred to the mem
ory of two strong minds, is still in use
In the Cooper family"
This change of home doubtless
shaped, if it did not alter, the life OF
James Fenimore Cooper. All his first
impressions, he said long afterward,
were obtained in the Otsego region.
It is to be doubted whether Fenimore
Cooper would have gained such wide
celebrity as novelist If he had not
discovered the unique field of romance
which the lake and hills Of Otsego
began to open to his vision. Had Feni-
more Cooper remained in Burlington
he might have written good novels,
/ but not 'The Leather Stocking Tales"

BEST PLACE FOR SEED CORN
Well Ventilated Room With Artificial
Heat, II Needed, Should Be Had
for Curing.

Word Is being sent to the farmers
OF Minnesota to take special pains in
drying and storing their seed corn this
fall. G.. P. Bull, university farm, St.
Paul, secretary of the state commit
tee of food production and conserva-
ton, says:
'gThe amount Of moisture to be re-
moved from the corn this fall is larger
than usual. A well ventilated room
with artificial heat, if needed, should
be provided for curing. Care should
be taken, however, not to dry the
corn too rapidly. The temperature of
the drying room should be kept some
where between go and 70 degrees. The
ears should be hung up by the double
string method or should be, put on
hangers or trees; it should not be
dumped in pile in a bin.
"a double allowance, if it can be
had, should be saved, in order to adj
nit of a more rigid selection next
spring.
''.The present indications are that
there will be good demand for seed
corn"

Rvssians Wrecked Railroads.

The gauge of the Russian railroads
Is about one foot wider than that OF
the German railroads. Hence the Rus
slams during their retreat after the
battle of Tannenberg believed that the
Germans would be unable to use their
narrower gauge locomotives and cars
on the Russian lines. The Germans,
however, moved one of the rails a
foot inside it's former position. At the
same time, they ruined the track for
Russian use by saving off the ties
Just outside the shifted rails. The
Russians came back, and on their next
retreat exploded cartridge at each
rail joint, smashing the joint and bend
ing in the abutting rail ends SO that
cars could not pass. This involved
for the Germans the huge task OF
bringing up new steel and relaylng the
entire track. The job was completed.

ROUGHAGE FOR SHEEP
Legume Hays Stand at Fore
front in Feeding Value.
Not Only Is Timothy UnpaTatabIe to
Animals, but It Causes Serious
Gases of constipation-Much
Grain Is Saved.
prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)


prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
By using the right kind Of hay in
stead of grain, sheep can be wintered
successfully and much grain saved for
other purposes. Sheep require less
concentrated feed during the winter
than other live stock. If they are
in good condition at the beginning Of
the winter and if lambs are not ex-
pected before the spring pastures come
on, the grainless ration is to be adj
vised.
Legume hays stand at the forefront
as roughage for sheep. No other
roughages approach them in feeding
values. The coarse-stemmed hays,
like timothy, red top and blue grass
have very few leaves and therefore
are poor sheep feeds. Hays having
large amount of timothy in them also
ere undesirable. Not only is tim0-
thy unpalatable to the sheep, but It
causes serious cases of constipation.
The dry timothy heads work into the
wool, causing irritation to the skin,
lessening the value Of the clip and
making shearing difficult. When tim
0thy or other coarse-stemmed hay Is
fed to sheep in winter quarters it be-
comes necessary to use some supple
mentary feed to keep the sheep in con-
dition.
If any nonlegume hay is fed, sup
Elementary protein feed is needed. Lin
seed meal is good since in addition to
furnishing protein it counteracts the
constipating effect of timothy hay.
From one-quarter to one-half pound
of linseed meal per eve daily should
be used, depending on the size and
condition of the animal and the other
feed used.
In an experiment conducted at the
Missouri station and reported in bull
hletin No. 120, the relative values Of
clover and timothy hays for wintering
ewes were determined.
Fifteen ewes fed 90 pounds timothy
hay and OBS pounds grain per head
daily lost 7.6 pounds each during the
same time that another lot receiving
the same weight of grain and clover
hay gained 65 pounds. The IA ewes
fed clover hay dropped 16 strong
lambs, while those fed timothy drop
ped IL strong and weak lambs.
The lambs from the ewes fed clover
hay gained more rapidly during the
first 80 days than did those from the
ewes fed timothy hay.

FEED AND WATER FOR cows
Attention Should Be Given to Taste
and Needs Of Each Individual
in Dairy Herd.

Do not feed the dairy herd as a
herd, for cows differ in their. food re-
quirements just as human beings do.
BY feeding all cows in the herd alike,
some are sure not to get enough to
the greatest profit and others will get
more than they can use to advantage.
Cows need much water and should
be induced to drink two or three times
day if possible. The average milk
cow requires nearly 10 gallons of
water day and more than two-thlrds
of that must come as drink and the
balance from water in the feed.

LAYING HENS REQUIRE LIME
Shell Forming Material Necessary in
Egg Production-Oyster Shell
Most Suitable.

Lime for shell-forming material is
necessary in egg production. Some
idea of the extent of the need is OBJ
tanned from the fact that an average
flock of $50 hens will produce 1877
pounds of egg shells in year. The
grains fed supply a portion of this
lime, but the supply is too small in
proportion to the number of eggs a
hen should ne able to produce.
Oyster shell is most suitable for
shell making. Old plaster may be used
as a substitute. Egg shell may be
saved, broken up fine and fed. Dry
bones may be broken up and fed. The
habit of egg eating often is caused
by lack of shell-forning food.

have Sprouted. Sow such seeds as to-
matoes, cabbage, lettuce, peppers, etc.,
but be sure to reserve several rows
for your flower seeds.
Make the rows run north and south.
Water the bed with sprinkler having
very fine nose.
The little seedlings are very delicate
and care must be taken not to bake,
starve or chill them. Too much heat
is worse than too little, therefore it is
necessary to air the hotbed by open
ing the frame when the sun shines
and the weather is warm.
Water with a fine hose when the soil
looks light in color and is dry to the
touch. Thin out the plants If they
stand too thickly in the row.
When the plants have attained two
or three true leaves they must be
transplanted into a cold frame. This
/ made with the twin cupboard door,
and contains no heating material, and
the frame put on the top Of the
ground.
The earth should be banked all
around the frame and during cold days
and nights both the hot and cold frame
were covered with broad shutters, and
carpet thrown on top for further pro-
lection.
After the hotbed has been emptied
into the cold frame it may be used to
grow another crop of seedlings.
The hotbed is also a good place to
start cuttings. Slip the cuttings, place
them in a dish containing sand which
should be kept as wet as mud, and the
slips will grow in short time.

SWEET PEAS FOR FIVE
MONTHS
By LIMA r. ROSE.

If you plan to have sweet peas nexi
year plant them so that you will bf
able to enjoy their beauties for at
least five months.
Dig a trench as long as wanted and
10 inches to two feet deep, and at the
bottom put a layer Of old manure.
Cover with soil that has been made
fairly rich with old rotten manure.
Down the center run two burrows
eight inches deep and ten inches wide.
Fill with well-rotted manure or leaf
mold and mix with the surrounding
soil. Do this early in February.
Make two trenches again five inches
deep and eight inches apart, and In
these SOW the seed two inches apart
firm it WELL Little by little, as the
peas grow, fill up the trench. When
the peas are four inches high provide
chicken wire trellises or brush for
them to climb on. On account of the
wire getting pretty hot in the strong
sunshine some people find they have
better success with the brush.
The following precautions will pro-
cure long Towering season:
Buy the best seed you can procure
each year; get the seed planted az
early as possible; don't try to work
wet soil or heavy soil, wait until the
earth is fit TO be worked.
Don't hill and don't trench; give
level cultivation; mulch with lawn
clippings or cut straw.
Water thoroughly when the soil Is
dry and syringe every few days to rout
insects.
Above all, cut the blooms every day
with pair Of shears, and don't pinch
or pull the vines.
Peas prefer firm soil, generously
enriched with rotten manure or leaf
mold.

MUCH INJURY is DONE SOIL
Live Stock Crush Particles Together,
Drive Air Away and Induce For
nation Of CIods.

A great injury is done every soil
when live stock is given liberty and
freedom over it, and especially when
fall, winter and spring are on with
wetness and cold. They crush the soil
particles together, drive the air away,
induce the formation of clods and
holes, and deaden the soil and drive
life away.
Cattle have no place in fields, culti-
waited or grass lands, when the soil
conditions are such that they tramp
the fields. Place stock during such
periods IN feeding lots.
