GRAIN MIXTURE FOR CALVES
Experience Teaches That Two Parts
of Corn and One Part Of oats
Is Satisfactory.

Calves are usually fed whole milk
for two or three weeks, then gradual
ly changed to skim milk. About the
time of changing, begin to feed little
grain, but do not think that it is nee
essary to use oil meal or any other
high-priced feed, high in protein, or fat,
or both. Experience shows that mix
ture of two parts of corn and one part
of oats, by weight, gives as good re-
suits as oil meal and ready-mixed calf
meals often purchased at much higher
prices. Bran is net especially good for
the young cCcf hera1ce il is too laxa-

Cork Lininn for Clothes.

The new corn lining for waterproof
garments produced by French proc
ess is claimed to be as flexible as thin
leather, and it may be folded without
harm. After the cork is sliced into
uniformly thin sheets, the fiexibility
is obtained by chemical treatment re-
moving all resinous matter. By means
of a special cement the cork is at
tached to one side of any suitable
cloth, or, for greater strength, the cork
may be used between two layers of
cloth. While the material is very
light, the special advantage of the cork
raincoat is said to be its porous quail
ity, giving ventilation while shedding

TRIBUTE TO MANS FRIEND
In All Countries the Dog Has Always
Been Companion Most
Highly Valued.

"A proverb in the time Of st. Ber-
nard was: 'Qui me amat, amet ct
canem meum' (who loves me will
love my dog alsoD. This is exactly
how the proverb reads in the book,
and IL is true. Whether the owner be
the man on the throne or the tramp
in the road, the dog is the best Of
his friends, whether the dog be cur
or hunter Of high degree. In one of
the most famous cases Senator Vest
of Missouri ever tried before jury
he paid a wonderful tribute TO this
humble friend of man, and to this day
men write to the senator's son for
copies Of his fathers tribute, which
has become classic. Some years ago
another cog died in one Of the South
ern towns, and his owner, who hap
pened to be the editor Of a newspa-
per, paid this tribute in the editorial
columns to "Jce:"
"Joe was a dog, but he was far
more. He was his masters friend
and companion. Whether the hour
was early or late, or the weather hot
or cold, In calm and storm, in rain
and sunshine, night and day, he wait
ed for the familiar foOtstep, and gave
an honest welcome. He could not
speak, but his heart was in his dark
brown eyes, ana In the wag of his
graceful tail there was more elO-
quence by far than could be expressed
in any spoken tongue.
"He was far better than his fell
lows, for he came of aristocratic
stock. His strain was perfect on both
sides and his blood showed in every
curve Of his beautiful body, in the
poise Of his princely head, in the
sweep of his splendid brush, in the
glory of the sunlight which had been
caught in his silken coat. He was
dog, but he was a gentleman. He
gave offense to no one; he was ad-
mired by all. His manners were
charming, his disposition perfect. lie
was the delight of women and little
children, and his master loved him
he was so beautiful, so patient, so
faithful, so true"
The friendship between man and
his dog is as old as the human race.
When Tobias was going down into
Media with the angel Raphael, his
father, Toblt, the prophet, said: go
thou with this man, and God, which
dwelleth in heaven, prosper your
journey, and the angel of God Keep
you company" and the narrative
reads: $50 they went forth both, and
the young mans dog with them"

Mr.. VOLTS Breakfast.

By Leona A. Penke, Aged Ia Years,
Bennington, Neb. Blue Side.
"Oh, myp said Mr.. Wolf, what a
fine breakfast have foundl Farmer
Pratt has put all these nice hens and
little chicks over here away from the
house, thinking l will not find them,
and that they would clean up these
grasshoppers that are in his alfalfa.
II will just clean up some of his
hens for my breakfast" said the wolf,
smiling. "He won't know anything
about it. will go and tell my fam
lily and we will come together for our
breakfast tomorrow"
When Farmer Pratt's children were
feeding the poultry they discovered
that some were missing, so they went
to their father, who said: II know It
must be a sneaky wolf that is al
ways around trying to get our ducks
and geese. I've penned them up and
will fix breakfast that will be the
last of him.
Early next morning the farmer put
some poison on the meat and fast
ened the poultry in good and tight.
The next morning along came the
wolves for their nice breakfast. They
could not get the hens, but found the
poisoned meat. @
"Let US help ourselves to this NICE
meat" said Mr.. Wolf; "it does taste
good" They ate it and started for
home. On the way they began to feel
sick and by the time they got home
they laid down and died.
Farmer Pratt never was troubled
with them any more.

brick crashed through the window
and the place was in an uproar.
Suddenly through a rift in the
crowd Margaret saw Kennedy in the
grasp of four ruffians. Knowing of
the recent attempt on his life, she was
paralyzed with terror.
Then with leaping relief, she found
Norwood beside her. Having seen
her in the audience he had come to
her aid. Breathlessly she told him
of Kennedy's peril. Incredulous, but
yielding to her excited insistency, he
fought way to the side entrance.
They were Just in time to see Ken
nedy, apparently unconscious, being
lifted into gray car. Norwood, rec
ognizing Doyle on the front seat, was
instantly alive to the danger.
Sweeping Margaret into a taxi, he
ordered the driver to follow the car
ahead. As they flew after the gray
blur, Margaret leaning forward with
breathless rigidity, was hardly con-
scious that Norwood was holding her
hands in a reassuring clasp.
"It's all right-they can't dodge us
now," his recent clash with Kennedy
forgotten in the realization of his
peril.
On and on through the dimly lit
streets, with recklessly increasing
speed. From the side lights they could
see the driver lean out and glance
back estimating his chance of eluding
them.
Finally, seeing that it was hope
less, with swift dangerous turn he
swirled a corner and slowed down.
Without waiting for the cars to stop,
both men jumped out and dashed up
the dark side street.
Norwood, 1eaping out after them,
called to the driver to follow.
Left alone, Margaret sprang from
the taxi and ran to the abandoned car
ahead-which she knew still held
Kennedy. Was he unconscious? Was
he seriously hurt? Her mind famed
with gruesone possibilities.
Her trembling fear-weakened hand
could hardly open the door. Then

How Jack Saved the Train.


Henrietta Newman, Aged IA Years.
Columbus, Neb. Red Side.
Jack was a poor boy who lived two
miles east of Merryville. His father
did truck farming and Jack helped all
he could. Being so small he could not
do much.
He was never allowed the privilege
of going to school. He often told his
father that when he grew up he was
going to college.
Behind the farm was a beautiful
pasture with many varieties of wild
flowers. Jack picked these and sold
them to the people of Merryville. Be-
fore reaching Merryville he had to
cross the railroad bridge. He often
look at the big rocks and the roar
ing water under the bridge,
One day when going to Merryville,
he noticed that the water was nearly
up to the bridge. 1t was dusk
before he reached the bridge again.
He was half way across when he no.
ticed that part of the bridge was gone.
He took out his new watch and no.
ticed that it was Sis o'clock. The
8:25 passenger train would be along
in ten minutes. What should he do?
He sat down to think. Once he
heard the whistle of the train. He got
up, took off his coat and waved it.
The train came closer and closer each
minute. At last it stopped. Jack show
ed the engineer what was wrong. He
thanked him for saving so many
lives.
Soon after Jack received $1,000 as a
reward. Jack could now get his school
education which he wanted so badly.

ance did not lessen the poignancy of
her wretchedness.
In the evening papers she read the
announcements of Kennedy's nomina-
tion for congress. Despite her leaping
pride, she had dread premonition Of
this proving a barrier between them.
Would his fear of possible unpleasant
publicity outweigh his love for her?
That evening and the next day
passed in feverish waiting for some
message. The very atmosphere of
the room became charged with her
intensity. She dared not go out for
fear he might telephone.
Her pride rebelled against her max
ing any Overture. Whatever her love,
she. could not cheaper herself by
deliberately seeking him.
But at least she could see and hear
him without his knowing. She would

FOURTEENTH EPISODE.

Making their way undetected across
the roofs, the Raiders secreted them
selves behind trees near Desmond's
home and the police captain returned
with Helen TO the station.
A group of eastern security holders,
disgusted with the Mountain Springs
situation, arrived that day on spe-
cial. Roy and Webb met them and
Desmond came over to headquarters
to learn what he could. His recep-
ton was a chilly one. Lorimer, who
headed the eastern visitors, openly
upbraided him: "You are responsible
for all the trouble the Kay has been
having" Nor would the angry east
erner listen to any defense, and he
finally ordered Roy to order Desmond
of the right-of-way.
Turning then to the yardmaster,
Jorimer told him the special car
would leave on No. 20. Desmond
overheard this, and he was already
in an ugly. humor. Going home, he
heard the Raiders calling from the
trees and, leaving his machine, he
