FAIRS ARE GOOD EDUCATORS
Fruit Grower Learns How to Produce
Fine Specimens and to Improve
His Own Methods.

At fair are exhibited the best pro-
ducts that had been grown in a state
or county. Fruit growers can easily
learn from the exhibitors how to pro-
duce such fine specimens Of fruit and
he also sees the best and learns the
circumstances under which 1t has been
produced. One cannot afford to let
such opportunities as the fair pass
unheeded. The fruit grower can in
spect the work Of others and compare
with his own, and II 1t is better than
he has been able to accomplish he
learns how to improve his methods.

CORRECT WAY TO MILK COWS
scrape Droppinas Into Gutter and
Work Teats and Udders Clean
Keep Hands Smooth.

Before commencing to milk the
droppings Of the cows should be
scraped into the gutter and the teats
and udders worked clean and wiped
dry. Always milk with clean hands,
and If your hands are hard and rough
keep cup Of goose grease or hard
and sweet oil at the stable, and once
a day, or before milking, rub little
on the. inside Of your hands; just
enough to make them feel smooth.
Some Of the grease should be rubbed
on the teats If they are rough or cut
with briars. An expert will milk a
COW giving two gallons Of milk in
five minutes. A steady, even motion.
filling the teat with milk at every
pressure Of the hands, is the most
rapid way Of milking and the most
agreeable to the cow.

The lack Of sufficient teams to pre-
pare land, plant, cultivate and gather
crops has cost many q farmer heavily.
In fact, many failures and partial fall
ures could be traced to poor teams
and lack Of suitable Implements. Do

Activity Of Russian Women


As Russia was the first country
where women were given control over
their inherited property, and as Petro-
grad has had for some years the larg-
est medical college for women in Eu-
rope it Is not strange that women
have taken such an active part in the
military campaigns. In all the revOlu-
tionary movements the women stu
dents have been made dangerous per-
haps, to the government, than the
men. It is believed that the majority
Of the women amazons are evolution
lists and that their military experience
was sought for the opportunity it gave
them to spread their doctrine.
