CHANGE TYPE OF LIVE STOCK
Except in Improvement Of Dairy Herd
It Is Tedious Process-Strive
for Uniformity.

1t one wishes to change the type OF
his live stock he will find various
roads open to him and he may bel
confused as to which to take. First
and most common sire Of the de-
sired type may be bought for the|
herd and year after year improve
ments may go on in this manner
But it is at best tedious processI
and, except in the improvement of
the dairy herd, 1t had better be avoid
ed. Life at best is not long enough
to observe very marked results byl
this method.
A much better method in the case of
beef cattle, sheep and swine, If many
are kept. il 70 provide few femalesl
Of the desired type and also male forI
them. the progeny of which shall bel
kept while the old type are gradually
disposed Of. It is surprising how quick
~ the type OF the herd will be changed.
Then again 1t is possible to sell OIL
the eutire lot Of cattle or other liveI
stock on the farm and to procured
those Of the desired type at one time.
This is the ideal method if 1t is fnan-'
cially practicable.
The one great thing to be desired inI
a herd is un:ecrm excellence and the
easiest and least expensive method of,
bringing this about is the one to be,
adopted.

sufficient Food May Be Only
Temporary Condition.

Live stock products are the result
of growth. BY far the largest part OF
increase in animals is the result OF
growth. The younger the animals the
greater the growth impulse. Many
factors influence the tendency OF an
animal to grow. Among these are age,
condition, CESSATION, lactation and the
quantity and quality of food. A given
amount of food will produce more
growth on a young animal than on the
same animal at later age. All the
growth factors influence the young an
imal much more powerfully than older
animals.
If an animals food supply is insult
ficient for normal growth, the animal
may be retarded in growth. If this

ARCADE TONIGHT

Aas Yulita, the beautiful South
Sea Island girl in the fascinating
drama "THE PEARL OF PARA
DISE," Margarita Fisher adds an
other notable success to the long list
Of stage and screen productions in
which she has starred since her re-
markable stage triumph at the age
of twelve, when she was first featur-
ed in her own company. Yulita is
raised as native of the Islands, al
though she is the daughter of a
Spaniard fugitive from justice and
beautiful American women who
died when Yulita was baby. The
advent of handsome stranger in
to her life changes the picturesque
girl from a child to woman, and
she suddenly becomes the central fl

THE AMERICAN BLUFF

A United Press staff correspond
ent, who is with the British armies
in the field, sends US bit of news
that should have the attention Of
every citizen in the United States.
1t concerns a talk he had with a
Prussian officer.
1.-THE war will be over and stag
gering indemnity saddled on the
United States before she knows it, !"
the officer declared. "Before Ameri-
ca awakes, we will have starved and
whipped England and France and
Italy into submission and made
peace with Russia, leaving America
alone in the field"
He CALLED our belated prepare
tons "Bluff." "B-l-u-f-f-, bluff. !"
The army preparations, the great air
fleet in the building, the destroyers
sent to the submarine zone-all that
and the rest, he said, was bluff"
This arrogant officer is from the
Prussian Missouri, it seems. We have
been woefully lazy in our support
of the Government. We are still woe
fully lazy in our support of the
Government.
It's up to you and me, plain every
day Americans, to show our enemies
that the United States is not bluff
ing; that she means it. There are
three great ways OF doing that: First
by going over to France to fight;
second by doing everything possible
both to conserve and swell the eco
nomic resources of the country;
third by giving your time and your
money to your country as often
as she asks for them. The most
pressing need just now is for trained
soldiers. But there is always the
need Of growing foodstuffs and
wasting less.
We're going to need it, brother.
It's going to take stupendous
amount Of food to feed big Ameri-
can Army in France and the British
and French Armies in France-per-
haps, and the inevitable submarine.
One can hardly even imagine the
amount of foodstuffs that those
millions of fighting meme and the
submarine can consume.
Don't you permit yourself to be-
lieve for a minute that Germany and
her allies are even half whipped.
They are not. You're thinking Of
these daily British victories, / know;
but the Germans are still in France!
The British and French are always
winning yet, the Germans are
still in France.
Now if Germany should make
peace with Russia-and l believe she
willard whip and starve the others
Of her enemy nations into submis-
sion before the United States gets
fairly into the arena, we will pay
that Staggering indemnify" Do
you get that?
1 "Oh, no." there are some who will
say; "she can't come over here and
take it."
She doesn't have to come over
here and take it. She would then be
four times mistress of the seas, and
then America would have to pay that
indemnity or be as much cut off
from the world as an uncharted is
land. Jam that into your pipe and
smoke It, brother American, and
then wake those tightly slumbering
of yours and tell them
shout it.

Albert Toernor left yesterday for a

The report from Mrs. Sandifer, IL
brarian, will probably be of interest to
the town board and the people of Hem
Jacksonville generally.
1t is most gratifying to note the in
creasing numbers who patronize the
library.
OF course. as in all libraries. the ma
jority come for fiction, but those who
call for books of information and in
struction are no small per cent. of the
patronage.
Your people and children are find
ing the library an assistance in things
educational as we'll as a pleasure. We
have some books that are especially
helpful in school work. but we need
more.
The library particularly appeals for
means to make the Juvenile depart
ment attractive and valuable.

sum for books quarterly it would as

Americas first newspaper was pub

gazette of a continent which now sup
ports nearly. 10000 publications, was
the project d Benjamin Harris of Bos-
ton, whose address was given as the
London coffee house and it was printed
by Richard Pierce. The journal con-
sisted of four pages, but only three OF
these were printed, one page being left
blank so that personal messages might
be written thereon. Each page was
about Z by II inches in size.
Benjamin Harris, the editor, re-
ferred to governmental and military
matters in a way displeasing to the
Boston authorities. who would seem
to have been very thin of skin, and his
journal was suppressed within twenty
four hours of the appearance of the

DO YOU KNOW HOW TO
CLEAN YOUR TEETH

Do YOU clean your teeth when you
brush them, or do you simply 60
through the motion? Many people
pretend to brush their teeth by pass
inc the bristles crosswise over the
service a few times, but this is at most
a pretense, as it really does not get
the proper results.
The best way to clean the teeth 10
to place the bristles Of the brush firm
" against the teeth and with a rotary
or scrub hing motion go up and down
the surface on the upper and lower
teeth, both inside and out and up on
the gums. Go also behind the teeth.
After seeing that every bit of the sur
face of the teeth has been cleaned in
this way, then rinse the mouth
thoroughly, forcing the water between
the teeth several times to unloose any
food particles. Do this, more than
once and always spit it out.
To keep the teeth as clean as they
should be kept in order to preserve
them and prevent decay, it is neces.
sary to wash them after each meal II
order to remove all food particles
| They should also be washed the frs
thing in the morning and the las
thing at night. 1t is well to have more
than one brush on hand at time 81

a wet, limp brush. A good, stiff brush
used two or three times day and /;
standard paste or powder used once ;
day is all that is usually necessary tt

dition. Remember always when wash

1ESI LET A CORN
OFF WITHOUT. PAIN!
Cincinnati authority tells how 20 dry
up a corn or eaIIus 20 It lifts
OF with fingers.

You corn-pestered men and women
need suffer no longer. Wear the shoes
that nearly killed you before, says this
Cincinnati authority, because a few
drops of freezone applied directly on q
tender, aching corn or caIlus, stops sore
ness at once and soon the corn or
hardened callus loosens so it can be
lifted out, root and all, without pain.
A small bottle of freezone cost very
little at any drug store, but will posi-
lively take off every, hard or soft
corn or callus. This should be tried,
as it is inexpensive and is said not to
irritate the surrounding skin.
If your druggist hasn't any freezone
tell him to get a small bottle for you
from his wholesale drug house. 1t is
fine stuff and acts like charm every
time.
