food, there were inspected during the
eight years. 1907 to 1914, inclusive.
579,G17 goats, Of which not n single
animal was condemned for tubercu-
losis. This fact alone should be the
strongest argument in favor of the
milk of the goat. The cream globules

than those OF cows milk, and because
OF this milk being condensed the eam
globules IRE contained In a more per-

Is the fresh milk, this referring to

full crops of 50 pounds Of nitrogen, 80
pounds Of phosphoric acid, and 70 40
pounds of potash. The husking corn

due to the prolonged feeding season.

ensilage being cut In green stage.
There is, however, quite n wide range

apparently due to the greater avail

silage aud husking corn its potash
has been shown varying from GO to
100 pounds to the acre Of crops, while
the nitrogen and phosphoric acid main

Appetite FOR PRAISE

" Kind Attention.

1t Is q human frailty to want praise.

Children of n larger growth often
crave an admiration which they do not

by harping on the theme of self, and
