Milk will sour in any kind of warm and moist temperature, and because just before and during a thunderstorm the air Is generally quite warm and moist,
 it is onli natural that it should turn Fsour It is wrong, however, to say or
 think that thunder makes milk sour.
 Thunder is only noise, and noise cans
 not do anything but make itself heard The fact that it is generally warm and moist however when it thunders, coupled with the fact that these condt- ditions of the air sour milk very rapidly, has led people to connect the two in their minds and caused them to fall into the error of believing that the thunder is responsible for the change in the milk.

your system through the blood and stom-
ach are not entirely thrown out by the
kidneys and bladder, you are doomed.
WEAKNESS, sleeplessness, nervousness,
dependency, backache, stomach trouble,
headache. pain in loins and lower abdo-
men, gall stones, gravel, difficulty when
urinating, cloudy and bloody urine, rheu-

KEEP FARM RECORDS
TO SHOW ACTIVITIES
Cash Accounts, Properly Assem-
bIed, Are of Importance.

Nearly as Much Money as obvi-
ousIy important - Carefully
Avoid Sudden Changes.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
When record Is kept Of all the
ut the close of the business year the
cash accounts can be assembled under
headings that will show exactly what
branch of the farm activities produced
the dollars and what each required in
the way of cash expenditure to keep
going. Some farmers are apt to judge
of the Importance of the various farm
projects by the time it takes to put
them through. To such, a complete
cash record for n year, properly as
sembled, will be an eye-opener. Often
seemingly unimportant things on the
farm, such as the flock of poultry, pro-
duce nearly as much net cash as the
obviously important. The years cash
summary helps the farmer to get u
better perspective of these things.
In using such records as an aid to
future plans, hasty conclusions should
not be drawn, nor should snap judg-
ments be taken. The fact that the
hogs or the corn crop brought in the
most net money last year is no reason
for assuming that all the activities Of
the farm henceforth should be devoted
to the sole purpose of hog or corn
raising. 1t may be that the keeping
Of cows was partly responsible for
making the hogs so productive of net
cash, or that the growing of wheat,
clover, or other crops in rotation with
corn made the latter crop much more
profitable than it would have been II
grown alone. Similar conditions will
be met with on all farms. and there

At the first call for soldiers in August,

not be last on the list for she proved

ally took hold of the question Of pro-
duction, while her husband was on his
way to fight the Hun. And she sue
ceeded. In 1915 she succeeded, and
again in 1915, and when her husband
returned In 1917 she was able to show
some contemplated farm buildings
completed, the indebtedness of the farm
paid off, considerable addition to the

He was now ready to do what he could
to keep up the period of prosperity
and provide food for the allies. The
women of Canada have done nobly
during the struggle.
Among the most successful farmers
of the Oak Lake district, Manitoba,
are the Misses Clara and Beatrice For
ward, who, for the past fourteen years,
have farmed their own land, doing all
the regular work on the farm, such DIS
blowing, seeding, summer following
and reaping. They have been espe-
cially successful with stock, and have
a splendid herd Of shorthorns, both
purebred and grade. At the recent
Brandon sale they purchased a new
purebred stock bull for $70O. Their
herd was last year increased by %
calves.
Miss r. NJ. Hillman of Keller, Sas-
katchewan, is another successful
tensively for grain growing, and farms
1,120 acres. She also owns some Of
the finest Percheron horses In Sas-
katchewan.
The prairie now boasts of many
women who have had more or less sue
cess, though few are farming on the
same large scale as Miss Hillman and
the Misses Forward. These women
have demonstrated, and are still dem
opstrating. that versatile woman
may be just as good and successful a
farmer as her brother.
There are other women, too, on the
Canadian prairies, who. though they
have not had thrown upon them the re-
sponsibllities of running a farm"
have been decided factors In making
the farm q success. They assist their
husbands by keeping the farm ac-

their management of the poultry and

very often, proving good advisers in
the economic management of the men
and general conduct of the farm work.
