cow is not fat, large cow of yester.
day, but middle size cow with large
capacity and much intellect. She is
a delicate piece of machinery. anc
when we'll kept she will produce the
best results.
She is now so she will have just
enough energy to keep her going wher
well fed and having good care, anc
when not having these two things she
will not be satisfactory. But on the
whole men have realized this fact ano
are now making the best Of profit de-
rived from the dairy cow.
The dairy cattle now days live II
modern barns where feed is hauled
in by electric device and MIXED by
electric machines. The modern barn
is a lot more healthy than these at
first. The cattle now days are tested
for all diseases and when one is found
who is sickly she is made away with
so as not to interfere with the rest OF
the herd.
There is more of a demand fol-
dairy products now days because the
people in the cities do not keep COW
while a few years ag oalmost every
body kept cow and if not got their
supplies from one of their neighbors
But now it is different, the towns and
cities have milk routes and have men
doing nothing but delivering milk fo1
city use.
The farmers use more and more as
the cities grow larger and milk is in
more of demand.

The Appeal of Bargain Counters
A bargain counter has both friends
and enemies. Many good points can
be argued in favor of it, but they are
also numerous on the opposite site.
In large cities, and often smaller
towns, it is very common for retail
dealers to have a bargain counter.
Usually this counter is an advertis-
ing agent. Articles from this counter
are placed in the show window with a
comparatively low price, showing the
apparent selling price and the dis
count prices.
When we stop before bargain
counter to examine it contents, the
first thoughts that flash through our
minds are: "How can they do it?''
What about the average retailer, is he
a dishonest man? Is the object of his
business to raise the high cost of liv-
ing for his customers, and accumulate
for himself in a dishonest way?" A
little investigation answers these
questions.
Examine the goods on the bargain
counters closely, and you are almost
certain to find one Of the following
reasons: Original selling price mark
ed so high that the discount price is
only normal selling price; old, out OF
date stock; inferior quality; or a few
articles marked at a reduced price, tc
deceive the eye, and the rest at an
advanced rate to make allowance TO-
the discounts.
It is, therefore, plainly seen why a
bargain counter appeals to almost ev-
cry person at first; loses it's friends,
and has so few admirers, when its
principles are learned.

In That Old Hotel


On gloomy, snowy day, while in
London, 1 registered at a tall, old
shabby hotel overlooking a narrow
street. It was owned by an old-loking
woman. l registered at this hotel be-
cause wished to know all about Lon
don instead of about its magnificent
structures only.
This old woman seemed to be the
only occupant of the building, for not
the sign of another peerson could
see. It was also she who showed me
to my room on the third floor.
Then l went back to the street, to
survey the building. It was made OF
wood. The brown paint had peeled
off until the hotel was of grayish
black. 1t looked even more ancient
than the old woman herself.
I went back into the hotel about
twilight. Upon looking up saw a
dim, Pickering light in the same story
with my room. For an instant face
was pressed against the window pane,
and, l thought looking at me. The
next moment it disappeared and the
face went with it.
Upon entering, / went through the
long, dimly-lighted hall up the dark
tunnel-like, narrow stairway. When
in the middle of the first flight,
stopped. I had heard noise an in
definite distance above me. "Only a
mousse" I thought. "It's good place
for them anyway" kept on my
trudge.
reached my room at last, after
mounting three uncomfortable long
dark flights of stairs. How glad ]
was. It would not seem so ghostly in
there. took hold of the knob, and
the door was locked. To the right
heard faint sount as of someone
heavily signing. / stole noiselessly in
that direction. My foot caught on
something, and I came down with a
rafting thump. At the same time
there issued a light, hysterical laugh
from the corner. It stopped. AN
could hear were the echoes bounding
and rebounding through the extensive
hall slowly dying away in the dark
ness.
Suddenly, from door before me
theer was quick step, and sharply
bright flash. I jumped aside. The
hall was light as day. "You may come
to your ROOM" she said. 81 suppose
the parrot disturbed you. I am ex-
pecting my son this evening.

Cotton

An early rally Of about 81 per bale
was followed by very irregular fuctua-
tons yesterday. At one time during
the morning the market showed con-
siderable strength. After the Die
break of last week, reactionary senti-
ment was much in evidence. and such
tendencies wero stimulated by the
more bullish average of crop and spot
adyiccs. The disturbances reported in
the Caribbean Sea also inspired APP
prehensions Of a tropical storm such
as frequently reaches the belt at about
this season of the year, and covering
sent December contracts up 20 22.37, or
40 points above Saturdays closing
price. That delivery closed at 20.l5, or
about % points of from the best. with
the general list closing steady At @
net advance of IL TO q points.
Tho market opened steady at IN
changed prices 20 an advance OF IL
points and before the end OF the morn
ing sold SO 10 40 points net higher.
The advance was then checked by
realizing and scattered Southern sell
ing, and the market later was unset
tied with trading less active after the
covering movement had subsided. Liv-
erpool both bo-ght and sold here this
morning. and there was buying during
the early afternoon. which was ac-
companied by reports that domestic
SINNERS were willing to fix prices on
considerable cotton around the 20
cent ievel As a rule. however. local
brokers attributed the bulk of the de-
mand to covering and considered the
advance chiefly a reflection of strong
err technical position after the recent
severe declines.
Spot advices from the South were
somewhat conflicting Texas reports
said there was good demand to NIL
out September engagement. This was
borne out TO some extent by the spot
sales reported at Houston, and some
of the Eastern belt markets also re-
ported q fair volume OF business Inc
scattered Southern selling noted mere
on the advance, and whenever demand
slnckened, suggested that some mold
ers were still turning their cotton
loose, however, and the talk around
the ring here suggested that sentiment
was still Of a bearish average on the
ultimate effects Of increasing avail
