WAS SHE EXPENSIVE?

Five years ago Mr. Cummings bought
Ester Nj. pure bred Guernsey COW
at cost of 5000. The value of good
stod is well proven by the results with
hiS COW. She has raised three bull
ca IS which have sold for an average
# $40 each Her daughter, Jennie OF
Hiles has produced two heifers and one
p.,, This bull also sold for $40 as a
calf. The heifers are nowin the herd.
Mr.. Cummings also sold one helfer
from the old cow Altogether he has
sold over 5000 worth of stock from this
COW, he has stock now worth $500 at
least, and he has had the milk from
w for four seasons and from an
. 4 + two seasons, worth at least Sl00
o < and above the cost of feed during
thac time. This makes total of $1,000
from the original investment of $500
in the good COW. This is pretty good
pay for labor and profit. Compare this
with the results from 'any old cow"
4nd see the difference.
1t 4oes not follow that we should all
go into pure bred stock yet the fellow
with the big profits is the fellow with
th- JIg stock There is as much diff
ference between good grade and a
scrub as there is between good pure
bred and grade. We can at least use
puf bred sire. No man can afford to
US. grade sire even if he gets the
bu.. Tor nothing. Every time we hear
of man buying anything but pure
br , bull, we know a man who is saw
ing the pennies at the expense ofdimes.
rne above is one of series of actual
experiences which will be published
from time to time. There is a lesson
in all of them. One man bought a
scrub bull few weeks ago

Have a Garden This Year.

That the majority of people have
overlooked or forgotten th value of
gardens in recent years is indicated by
the slowness with " hicb the idea of
vacant lot and backyard gardening in
cities has sprung since the rapid rise in
the prices of food products. Vegetables
and especially canned goods are un-
usually high in price and gardens will
do more than ever before to cut down
the cost of living. Properly cared for,
the small plot or garden will supply
enough vegetables for the average
family. Good seed, proper cultural
methods, plantfood, ether i'll the form
of manure or fertilizers and few
garden tools are all that are needed to
make a start in the gardening in
dustry for home use

GERMANY SOWED; WE REAP.

Throughout the period of the war be-
fore the United States became a partici-
pant, the German and Austrian govern
ments acquired the habit of buying war
munitions in the United States so that
they could not be acquired by the En-
tente Powers. For the most part the
Central Empire governments had no hope
of getting the goods into their territories.
They merely cached them, and in the
course of months they accumulated a
large supply of material of one sort or
another.
Now the American republic is in the
war, and in the fullness of time it's Gov
eminent has decided to take over those
stocks which the Teutonic governments
carefully laid away. It is estimated that
the value of the goods, cotton, copper
and steel, which will be acquired, ex-
ceeds $3.50, 100000 This is large amount
of property and in all likelihood consid-
erably more than so percent of the total
sum to be realized from the general con-,
fiscation of goods OF enemy aliens.
There is an ironic turn to the situation.
Germany and Austria find themselves in
the position of combatants who have
been overrcached by their own cunning.
The plan that was counted on the harass
and annoy the Entente has worked out to
its advantage.

APPLY THE LAW TO HOARDERs

Sec. of the food bill provides ''That
any person who willfully boards any
necessities shall upon conviction thereof
be fined not exceeding SIS, 900 or inprison-
ed for not more than two years or both"
Section provides THAT whenever any
necessities shall be boarded as defined in
Section 6, they shall be liable to be pro-
ceeded against in any district court of
the United States within the district
where the same are found and seized by a
process of libel and condemnation.
Hoarding is going on every day. Not
long ago 100000 tons of coal was dis
covered in hoard in western State
Never before was there so much meat,
eggs, cheese and butter stored under lock
and key as now. Has anybody been ar
Eested2 Not that we have heard of.
Watchful waiting for the spectators to
yield to persuasion will prove to be Just
as much farce as it was in dealing with
Mexico. The good natured and patriotic
public will be influenced by Mr.. Hoover's
daily twelve-hour talks, but the specula.
tors cannot be converted by exhortations
nor do they seem to be scared by threats
The food bill seems to be success in thu
pantry and failure in the refrigerator.

MILK AS A FOOD.

Human foods should be palatable, clean,
easily digested, furnish the nutrients
needed by the system in proper amounts,
and be reasonably cheap.
When milk is produced and cared for
properly it has all the above require
ments. Most of the milk in this State is
handled in comparatively clean man
ner, very little dirty milk being found.
Considering the digestibility of its COM
ponents milk ranks among the most di-
gestible of all foods. In milk are found
all the chief classes of nutrients neces-
sary for the human body and these are
present in such proportions as to render
it most serviceable as food.
Consumers should use more milk and
dairy products. Use less meat and more
milk. Remember that quart of milk has
the equivalent food value of 3-4 lbs. of lean
beef steak, 2 lbs. of chicken or eggs,
etc. Compare the present prices of these
latter articles, which we consider so
necessary, with the price of quart of
milk.
| deem it unnecessary to say more, but
leave it to your own judgment to decide
whether or not you will request your
milk man to increase your daily supply

MR.. HURLEY.

It will be remembered that the Presi-
dent appointed a Mr. Denman as chair
man of the Ship Construction Board.
That gentleman did not know how to per-
form the duties of that office and would
not take advice from those who were
competent to give it. The only thing he
did which was worthy of note was to re-
sign. President Wilson then appointed
Mr.. Hurley to fill the vacancy, Mr.. Hur-
lev commenced at once to do business in
a businesslike way. He had no time to
dispute, argue or talk to the public. He
foresaw what we all now know, that the
successful outcome of the war depended
upon plenty of ships and that they must
be had as soon as possible. He was ap-
and he soon brought order out of chaos
A few days ago he and his associate,
Admiral Capp, who is also making good,
held a conference with the builders on
Ehe Atlantic coast. We make one ex-
rae from what Mr.. Hurley said just to
show what positive, energetic and prac-
4iCal man he is showing himself to be:
We will build six million lightweight
tons of ships in 1918. l say we are going
10 do it rather than that we are going to
Try to do it, because anything America
sets out to do she does. AS fighting
nation we have a clean record for vic
tory We have the men, we have the
money, and we have cause that is right.
In striving for this new goal we are cut
ting out red tape, Whatever labor needs
we shall give to labor Whatever help
the shipyards need we shall give to the
shipyards.
We want the labor representatives
who are here to tell us the best way to
speed up and augment the labor supply.
We want the shipyard representatives to
tell us what they think will facilitate the
work of production"

The Fuel Value of Wood.

WASHINGTON, November 5, 1917. Per-
sons who plan to relieve the coal short
age this winter by burning wood can fig
ure, roughly speaking, that two pounds
of seasoned wood have fuel value equal
to one pound of coal, according to ex-
perts of the Forest Service. While diff
values, the foresters say that in general
the greater the dry weight of a non-resin-
Gus wood, the more heat it will give out
when burned.
For such species as hickory, oak, beech,
birch, hard maple, ash, locust, longleaf
pine or cherry, which have comparative
ly high fuel values, one cord, weighing
about 1000 pounds, is required to equal
one ton of coal.
1t takes a cord and half of shortleaf
pine, hemlock, red gum, Douglas fir, syca-
more, or soft maple, which weighs about
5000 pounds cord, to equal a ton of
coal, while for cedar, redwood, poplar,
catalpa, Norway pine, cypress, Eastwood,
spruce and white pine, two cords, weigh
ing about 1000 pounds each, are required.
Weight for weight, however, there is
very little difference between various
species. Resin affords about twice as
much heat as wood, so that resinous
woods have greater heat value per
pound than non-resinous woods, and this
increased value varies, of course, with
the resin content.
The available heat value of cord of
wood depends also on the amount of
moisture present When the wood is
green part of the heat which it is capable
of yielding is taken up in evaporating the
water. The greater amount of water in
the wood the more heat is lost
Furthermore, cords vary as to the
amount of solid wood they contain, even
when they are of the standard dimension
and occupy 1928 cubic feet of space. A
certain proportion of this space is made
up of air spaces between the sticks, and
this air space may be considerable in
cord of twisted, crooked and knotty
sticks. Out of the 1928 cubic feet, fair
average of solid wood is about 80 cubic
feet.
Where wood is to be burned in stove
or furnace intended for coal, it will be
found desirable, the foresters say, to
cover the crate partly with sheet iron or
fire brick, in order to reduce the draught.
If this is not done the wood is wasted by
being consumed too fast, and makes
very hot fire which in a furnace may
damage the fire box.-From the U. S.

PRODUCE PORK.

There is a shortage of meat and fats.
The visible supply is diminishing and the
only way to meet the demands of next
autumn and the winter following is to
raise hogs by the million Two hundred
pounds of meat and fat can be produced
quicker in the pig pen than anywhere
else on the farm, and there are thousands
OF families who have only little land
and cannot raise other kinds of livestock,
but who can raise one or more hogs. The
grain crops of this year, and the control
next years prices for feed seem cheap
when compared with prices which have
prevailed this year. 1t is safe to say
that prices for pork products will rule
high. But the question as to whether it
will pay to raise hogs need not be further
considered. 1t is enough to say that
that they are forthcoming is a patriotic
duty incumbent on all who can help. Here
IS an opportunity for our Boys and Girls
Clubs to do very effective and patriotic
bit to help win the war.
MI. Hoover has very plainly put this
matter before us in his public statements
but he has neglected to say word about
spring pigs. A good foundation is the
, first thing to be looked after in almost
every undertaking. We hope that about
the first of next May the farmers will
have pigs for raising on the farm, pigs
for the boys and girls and pigs for thou
sands of families who have not eaten
pork of their own raising, at any time fol
several years.
