Foch were in substance:
Germany's army is at your
mercy, MARSHAL. Our reserves OF

The war is over, but the fight between
economy and extravaganza will go on. 1t
is battle that is taking place in every
family in the land. Extravaganza is q
winner in most cases, but economy fights
on against tremendous odds against it with
tho belief and intention OF winning in the
end.
If you would limo up with the one or
with the other, you have two destinations
in view ono is a savings account and the
other is the empty pocket with the poor
house just over the hill in the distance.
Increase the amount that you have saved
and if you have not saved anything at all,
begin the task today in order that you may
live in ease when the time Of trouble would
be OH hand to bring about your undong.
1t matters not how little you earn, let a
bank help you.
Try a Christmas Savings Club Card and
if you have tried this try a bank book
with your money to stay in a place Of
safety with the interest increasing all the
time. Victory is in the air for Allies Let
financial prosperity DO in the air for you.

 " hey carry more brain than com mon cattle and take better care of themselves; > they do not, require as much salt as others; they do not dis turb or destroy water; they will not eat loco; Il have never seen sick cattalO; they have eight incisOr teeth and the shape in which they are set enables them to bite off the grass as close as the buffalo, giving them the benefit of the rich seeds that form in the tussets of the feed known as "Bualo grass"-a different species from the mesquite grass. This close grazing also gives them the Denert oi the green shoots or staltls which are found near the ground in dry sea- sons and in winter
 An inspection of some hides nc had from these cattalo shows the short curly hair of the buffalo and usually the same colcr. The mane and neck hair, however, are not as long and heavy as thase of the buffalo and the hump is not nearly as prominent.
 But all these years of experiment have not yet developed a type which will remain true without continued breeding with the pure buffalo COW.

The girl who stretches every state- ment she makes out of all resemblance to the actual facts of tie case may imagine she is strengthening what sine is trying to say. But that is mistake.

bred buffalo cows to Polled Angus bull, obtaining quater-b -bloods. The bulls proved fertile to the three-quar ter blood suffalo cows and from these I took my start and have a fairly established race that have proved far superior tp any breed of cattle known, for the following reasons:
 ",'So far as I have. been able to test they are immune from all disease They never have had blackleg. They thrive and do well on less food than any other cattle known. They do not carry the extra quantity of tallow as common cattle, but by analysis the tallow is worth three to four cents more per pound as. butter producer
 N" I hope to establish the fourteen tn rib which the buffalo has. Some of my grades have it and time and patience will think, establish it in all his will give greater hardihood and longer and deeper loin These cattlo live and produce at much greater age and do not get as light in their old age as common cattle. At any time they will cut or dress 70 per cent gross weight. and the COWS will weigh from 1,109 to 1,6$S pounds.
 They do not require as much range as the common stock; they do not drift in storm; they do not run from heel-flies; they rise on the fore feet instead of their hind-feet, which enables them to get up if weak; they never lie down with back down a slant, a, habit that causes much loss

Teutons in History.

The term Teuton is of Latin origin In ancient times the part of Europe now embraced in Germany was called Germania, and one of the principal tribes of the country was called by the civilized Romans Teutons, just as we speak of the Apache Indian. Being a fierce and warlike people they gave the Romans great deal of trouble, and as they were the domipant tribe of that region the name of Teutons gradually Came to be applied to all the people oc. c,,pying what was called Germania. It iias survived in the form of Teutons.

Aquatic plants should not be planted in shallow ponds or lakes that freeze solid. No matter how thick the ice forms on the surface the plants will live If the water about them, under the ice, does not freeze. If ice forms about the roots of the plants they will be killed.
