PLANT ROUGHAGEs FOR COWS
Every Farmer Is Advised to Grow
Abundance of Alfalfa or Clover
Concentrates High.

Grow an abundance of feed for the
COW this season, advises A. S. Neale,
specialist in dairy h~usbandry, division
of extension, Kansas State Agricultural
college.
ALREADY the price of concentrates
is out of sight Prices will continue
high unless these concentrates are re-
placed by the cheaper roughages," said
Mr.. Neale. every farmer should plan
to grow plenty Of alfalfa or clover, and
silage. If alfalfa or clover cannot be
grown in your section substitute an
other leguminous crop, such as cow
peas.
During the next - months the pro,
duction of dairy products will be due
largely to the feeding of roughages in
stead of concentrates, as has formerly
been the case.
DAIRY COWS of quality receiving
nothing but roughage a produce 200
to 25O pounds of butterfat annually,
provided the roughage is fed in abund-
ance and is composed of a combination
of silage and a leguminous hay. Of
course poor COWS will not do so well
On this ration"

GIRLS! MAKE A
BEAUTY LOTION
WITH LEMONS

At the cost of a small jar of ordinary
cold cream one "a prepare a full quar-
ter pint of the most wonderful lemon
skin softener and complexion beautifier,
by squeezing the juice of two fresh
lemons into a bottle containing three
unces of orchard white. Care should
be taken to strain the juice through a
fine cloth sc no lemon pulp gets in,
then this lotion will keep fresh for
months. Every woman knows that lem

such blemishes as %freckles, sallowness
and tan and is the ideal skin softener,
smoothener and beautifier.
Just try it! Get three ounces of
orchard white at any pharmacy and
two lemons from the grocer and make
up a quarter pint of this sweetly frag-
rant lemon lotion and massage it daily
into the face, neck, arms and hands. 1t
should naturally help to whiten, soften,
freshen and bring out the roses and
beauty of any skin. 1t is truly marvel

FOR CLEAN MOVIES
Film From America, but Suggest
Change in Its Character.

Europe is buying more motion pic
ture film from America than ever be-
fore. This is an excellent branch OF
our export trade. 1t does not take
much raw material. 1t gives employ
ment to many grades of labor from
the rough to the highest grade. 1t dis
tributes money through all the stages
of it's progress from the crude product
to the finished.
Europe finds in the movie" a bit of
relief, of taxation from the long
strain and horror of war. 1t wants
American pictures but what an indict-
ment of American morals is contained
in the report of our vice consul, David
G. Kerr, stationed at Birmingham,
England, who notifies the secretary of
commerce that "the only recommends
ton offered by renting agents as to any
improvements desired in American
films is a request for less of the sex
ual problem" We are so habituated
to seeing indecent plays, suggestive
movies" and women in Scant drapery
that we have lost the proper sense of
proportion morally. LESS Of the sex
ual problem" says Europe. The mes
sage is a good one from a people who
are being made better, cleaner, truel
as they are tried in the fire of war;

Dangers of Watered Coffee

Watered stock, watered milk. and
Watered coffee-the United States Gov,
eminent is carrying on a crusade to
eliminate all three.
Everyone knows about watered
stock. Everyone has seer ssbl1e milk
the combined efforts of a COW and the
ola pump. But not everyone is on his
guard against "watered coffee"
That the United States Government
realizes the danger of watered coffee
IS shown by the specifications for the
United States Army supplies. These
specifications say plainly:
Coffee: roasts must be dry
roasts, no water being permitted
before, during or after the process
of roasting"
Water in coffee is a piece of dishon-
esty practiced by INSCRIPTIONS coffee
roasters. They turn the hose on the
coffee While it is being roasted, so
that 1t won't lose weight, as coffee
Will, when properly roasted. In roast
Ing. coffee should lose about 16% of
Its weight. If it is watered it loses
but 40. The difference, of course. is
water, for which you pay coffee value.
h is adulteration and nothing
more. The water-logged coffee is rank
and unhealthy. Of course, it is not
honest to charge for coffee, and sell
coffee beans soaked in water.
A lot Of watered coffee is being sold
no doubt right in this town. 1t is more
often met with in the lower priced
grades of bulk coffee.
AS coffee is such an important bev-
erage, pure food authorities are ad-
vising housewives to use the greatest
care in selecting their coffee. The pure
food experts say that the best way to
avoid watered coffee is to buy some
reliable packaged brand, roasted by a
reputable coffee rooster as Arbuckle
Brothers of New York.-Adv.

DAIRY
s
CARING FOR CREAM ON FARM
Expert of University Of Illinois Gives
Ten Excellent Rules for Farmer
to Follow. .

(By H. A. RUEHE, Associate in Dairy
Manufacturers, University of Illinois.)
1. Keep the COWS clean.
2. Use covered milk pals.
3. Milk with dry hands.
4. Remove milk from the barn i'm
mediately and separate it at once.
5. Set the separator so that it will
skim cream that will test from 35 to
40 per cent in the winter and from
40 to As per cent in the summer.
6. Wash, scald, and dry the separa-
tor and all utensils Immediately after
using. The separator bowl may be
dried in a warm oven, though the
oven should not be so warm that it
will melt the tin on the bowl parts.
Setting utensils in the sun is a good
practice, as the sunshine acts as a
germicide.
z. Keep all utensils and separator
parts dry when not in use.
8. Cool the cream Immediately after
skimming by setting the can in cold
running water. Construct a cooling

Prove What Swamp-Root Will Do For You
TeIegraphing With the Voice.

A telegraph SENDER" has been ex-
perimentally perfected which the op-
orator works with his voice instead of
his fingers. In place of raising and
depressing his sending key he sends
his dots and dashes by modulating his
voice to produce long and short inter
walls. The principle Of the sender is
the same as that of the ordinary type.
In the usual senders the raising and
depressing of the key opens and closes
the circuit to produce the dot and
dash. In the new type a delicate
diaphragm is so arranged that the vi
brations in the air set up by the voice
open and close the circuit as in a tele-
phone and produce the same results.

ROUGHNEsS FOR DAIRY cow
Animal Is Not Content Unless Stomach
Is FuIl-Feed Grain According to
Milk Yield.

Roughness is the first important con-
sideration. A COW is not contented
unless her stomach is full. She should
always have all the roughness that
she will clean up and then the amount
of grain she receives should be regu-
lated by the amount of milk pro-
duced.
A dry COW in good condition should
be fed roughness only, and does not
need any grain. In feeding grain to
milk producing cows, the following rule
may be used, and is found to work fair
ly well: Feed one pound of grain for
each three pounds or pints Of milk pro-
duced.

A New Measure for Distance.

Some mud-bespattered autoists were
attempting to reach Nashville, Brown
county. Even with chains on their
wheels, they were wasting lots of gaso-
line in investigating q washout or a
valley which they had left triumphant
ly only a few minutes before.
Three times in three hours they had
asked the distance and each time had
received the same answer.
"'Bout three miles to Nashville"
1t is true that in those three hours
they had had one blowout and once
they had to get a team of horses to
pull them out of the mud. But even
so, it seemed as if they could not be
more than a half mile away. Finally
they met a man on horseback.
GLOW far to Nashville? Three miles,
I suppose!' But the fine sarcasm was
not lost on him. He grinned and said
in a soft voice:

TAMMANY is 1928 YEARS OLD
Famous Political Organization of New
York Was Founded by William
Mooney, an UphoIsterer.

Tammany is 12S years old. On May
II, 1859, William Mooney, an uphol-
sterer, who previously had been active
as one of the Sons of Liberty, founded
in New York what was intended to be
a patriotic and social organization, the
secret society of St. Tammany, or Co
lumbar order, which in 1905 vas regu-
larly incorporated as a fraternal aid
society.
1t was divided into 13 tribes, each of
which had it's separate totem. The Of
ticers became known as the grand sa-
chem, the sachem, the sycamore, or
master of ceremonies, and the wis
kinski, or d~Oorkeeper.
In 1911 the society built it's first hall,
and in 1867 moved to Tammany hall,
in Fourteenth street, where it has been
ever since. Early in it's history Tam.
many began to take an active part in
politics. Aaron Burr is supposed to
have been it's tutor in the ways of poll
tics, and in 1900 the society took part
in it's first campaign, being instumen.
tai in carrying New York for Thomas
Jefferson.
The name Tammany is adapted from
that of an Indian chief, Tamanend, OF
the Delaware tribe, who was famous
for his virtue and wisdom. He died il
174O and was buried in New Britain
township, Bucks county, Pennsylvania
Tammany was one Of the earliest so
cial organizations in America. The
members in the early days were accus
toned to dress in Indian costume.

nave informed US at different times that

good. I at last induced him to try your
