PUT FARM IMPLEMENTS
IN REPAIR IN WINTER

When housing the farm imple-
ments for winter make a list of
repairs needed to put them in
shape for efficient service next
year. Order these repairs at
once and have them on hand
when needed. Such precaution
may easily save days of delay
next spring. Materials are so
short that manufacturers will
not carry more parts than seems
absolutely necessary. An order
placed now means that you will
not be disappointed next spring.

MILK OF GREAT IMPORTANCE
Will Be Found of Much Help In Feed
Ing Young and Old Fowls
Stinting Don't Pay.

Milk will be of great help in feed
ing both old and young and will return
more from the poultry than If fed to
the pigs. Feed generously at all times.
The present high prices Of feed are
alarming, but IL one can't afford to
feed well at all times he had better
sell at once to some one who can.
Stinting the feed merely gives us a
lot of nonproductive boarders, with
never anything on the profit side Of
the account.

SODIUM FLUORID FOR FOWLS
Applied to All Parts of Body Powder
Ia Sure Death to Lice-Can Be
Made Into Solution.

Sodium fluorid powder is death on
poultry lice. 1t can be busted into
the feathers so 1t will reach the skin
1t should be applied to all parts of the
body. 1t can be made into a solution
one ounce per gallon of water and stir
well. Dip the poultry into 1t. The
dipping method kills the lice quicker
better and more cheaply. The So
dunn fluorid has no bad effects on the
skin, but is little irritating to the
air passages. 1t is, however, very
destructive to the lice.

easily moved and can be cleaned and
scalded with comparative ease. The
trough Is made seven inches wide, the
slot is three inches higher than the bot
tom of the trough. The partial
"roof" over the trough will aid In
keeping out rain, dust and trash. 1t
also prevents the birds from hop
ping into the trough and wading into
the ration. The trough should not be
made longer than four of five feet.

USEFUL FOR WINTER MULCH
Leaves Are Not Only ServiceabIe
When Placed About Plants, But
Also Good for Litter.

Save the leaves. They are useful
for winter mulch about garden plants,
for poultry to scratch in and, when
piled and rotted down, make good
fertilizer for the garden. 1t Is worth
while to save them If possible.

The chairman suggested that
passage Of the bill by the house
without making provision for pro-
hibition deficit might be construed
as representing house belief that the
revenue from liquor is not needed.
The committee Tuesday carefully
began reading the bill by paragra phs
and proceeded as far as the income
tax. General definitions of the in

 Mr. Dodd remarked that bis work here may be a bit difficult, on account of the fact that dairymen are net ll- censed here and therefore we have 10 list of the men in that 5a8inesS. If anything like q thorough study Of the milk situation is to be made, the co operation of the housewives must be requisitioned.
 Mr. Dodd would like the women to bring him samples of the milk they huv not less than cne pint in q clean

 Cambridge, England, Dec. 3o.-The senate of the University of Cam bridge, has appointed committee to consider educational collaboration with American universities. On the committee are Dr. Shipley, vice chancellor of the University; Profes- sor Adami, Dr. Sorley and Mrs. Laps Hey, all of Cambridge men who are graduates of American universities. It is interesting also to note that Trinity college, the biggest education al institution in Cambridge univer sity, has just appointed as one of it's four tutors Gallard T. Lapsley, an American citizen born in Philadel- phia, and a graduate of Harvard. The work of the tutors of Trinity Is somewhat similar to that of the Dean of college in an American university They look after and superintend the private life of the undergraduates and are the officials with whom the parents correspond, and to whom they express their anxieties.

Officers and soldiers pass ing to their posts in the sector leave their route to seek out those three graves; but, why should l not say it? They are visited more by the French than by the Americans.

Visitors will come in throngs, even from over the seas, to contemplate the horizon and breathe the air impregrated With the atmosphere of sacrifice and glory that makes peopl estrong and lndlvld- |uals audacious and perseverina.
