shiny mornings in early summer,
when the soft, restless rustic of
every tree and shrub sent the~l lazy
Pickering sun shadows over the
grass and porch of certain little
brown house, and an irresistible
spirit tugged at every nerve and
fiber of mere folks to come out
and enjoy life!"
Say. Uncle bud, aren't you glad
you're not a dead Belgian this
morning."
Jimmie G. had emerged from the
shrubbery, munching a crust of
warm Graham bread, as he came
up behind his uncle, who was read
ing the morning paper and smok-
ing his beloved Swiss pipe out in
the lawn swing.
Uncle bud took his pipe out of
his mouth and looked at his ener-
getic nephew for few moments
before he answered, Yes, I'm
rather glad I'm not"
Then putting on his pipe few
moments longer, while he looked
fiXedly at Jimmie G., he added,
And, Jim, since am live Amer
lean with blue-star nephew, just
what do you think l can do to
prove Pm worth the position?"
you've got your auto here you
know, Uncle Dud," began Jimmie
in very suggestive tone, and,
well, you know we never can go
very far in. just mothers electric,
and So"
Uncle Dud smoked on in silence
for convenient length of time
longer before he said, Can she
be ready in half an hour?"
We'll, Uncle bud, where're you
going?" queried Jimmie c., for
something in his uncle's tone
sounded as though things were go
ing to happen. But his uncle only
smoked on in silence his uncon-
cerned way.
Jim, remember Emma?" he
he broke in suddenly. "You
haven't seen her for four or five
years, but you used to like her
sugar COOhlCS oil I1Sul.
Emma" repeated Jimmie, try
ing to think. "Oh, you mean Nan
nah. That's what we always called
her because Jean couldn't say
Emma. Why sure, Uncle bud, she
always sends us things for Christ
mas and birthdays; just last week
she sent me that blue neck tie
with red stripes in it because she
said was getting to be a man,
nOw't I'm ten. But whatchu talk
ing about Emma for? l thought
maybe you were going to take us a
ride"
How would you like to have
Nannah come back here for a
while?"
Jimmie G. looked at his uncle in
speechless establishment.
Come back-here?" he repeated
as broad grin took the place OF
surprise over his face. It'd suit
me all right. Did you ever taste
that gingerbread with raisins in it
that she used to make? Let me
tell you, that was regular bread"
"All right, them" returned his
uncle, putting once or twice more
on his pipe before knocking out
the ashes and reached down for
his hat. "Tell your mother to put
some things in bag and be ready
SO we can start in about half an
hour"
But Uncle bud, what do you
mean? Nannah lives way out In
the middle of Ohio somewhere
and we couldn't 60 there, today
well, il we can't get there to
day, maybe we can find hotel
and then see her tomorrow. Blu,
Claribel Is pretty good at travel
ing"
And so the trip was begun.

WARM WATER FOR DAIRY cow
Cheaper to Heat Supply Than for
Animals to Do 1t Themselves With
Expensive Feeds.

North Dakota Agricultural College Bull
letin.)
A good supply Of clean, fresh water
should always be at hand for dairy
cows. Much water is needed for the
high-producing mich COW owing to the
nature of her product, about 81 per
cent of which is water. 1t should be
handy at all times, and In the winter,
if the tank is outside, heat should be
applied to take the chill off the water.
Cows will drink more water if warmed
to 60 to 70 degrees Fahrenheit than If
made to drink ice water. A tank heater
can be provided at low cost that will
keep water at proper temperature,
thereby saving feed and energy Of the
animal. 1t is cheaper to warm ice wa
ter than to allow the COW to warm 1t
with higll-priced feed.

New Breaking Bride.

The claim made for new breaking
bride Is that it Is so designed that it
gives remarkable control over an I'M
manageable horse, because pressure
can be exerted on certain of the ami
mails spinal-cord nerves. This SIM
pie head harness has rope bit which
will not injure the horses mouth, no
matter how tender it may be. At each
end is large circular guard. A strap
attached to the bit extends up the
right side Of the head and then just
back Of the ears. and terminates in a
pulley on the left side. Fastened to
the end of the bit at the left side is a
small rope which passes upward
through the pulley and then back
through a metal loop projecting from
the end Of the mouthpiece. An ex-
tension Of this rope serves as the lead
ing rein, the theory is that a pull on
this rein causes the strap behind the
ears to press down on a spot in the
spine which is said to be so sensitive
that the horse is soon brought into
subsection.

CALVES WITH WHITE SCOURS
Result of Inflammation of Lining of
Fourth Part or True Digestive
Stomach.

White scours in calves Is a form of
diarrhea. 1t is the result Of an in
flammation Of the lining of the fourth
part or true digestive stomach, and
is generally caused by changing the
calf's milk or giving cold or skim
milk when not used to it. The ma
nure Is very thin and of yellowish-
white color. The calf has pains,
breathes heavily and groans at times,
grlts it's teeth and keeps looking
around at it's sides. Try to discover
the cause of the trouble, and if from
a change of milk or giving it too cold,
apply this treatment:
Give the calf good, warm milk to
drink, following with two ounces Of
raw linseed Oil, two ounces of lime wa
ter, one dram of laudanum. Mix and
give as drench. If this does not
give relief follow with one dram of
laudanum and two ounces Of lime
water. Mix and give three times
day in little milk as a drench. Keep
up this treatment and see that the
animal is kept dry and warm until 1t
is better.

The Most Valuable Book.

The Medico Laurentian museum OF
Florence, Italy, has in its possession
what IS said to be the most valuable
book in the world This book is called
the "Codex Amiatnus" and is pro.
nounced by some scholars to be per
haps the oldest and by all odds the
best ancient Latin manuscript of the
Bible. The work is believed to have
been copied from the translation by ST,
Jerome, which he made direct from
early Greek and" Hebrew scripts. Its
origin is placed in the ninth century,
and is thought to have been the handi
work of English priests.

REMEDY FOR CHAPPED TEATS
Carefully Wash With Warm, Soft Wa
ter Containing Disinfectant-
Dry and Apply SalVe.

Chapped and sore teats of any kind
should be carefully washed with warm
soft water containing a little disinfec-
tant. Dry them carefully and apply
a little salve. The salve may be just
ordinary vaseline ; it may be any of the
carbolic acid salves purchased in the
drug store, or it may be made up Of
three parts of lard and one part of tur-
pentine.
This salve protects the teat during
the time between milkings. 1t excludes
air and keeps the teats from drying
and cracking and the surface of the
teats become smooth and soft. In
stead of being uneasy during milking,
the COW will stand quietly and show no
discomfort of any kind from this
source.

COMMENDS WORK OF FARMER
Efforts to Produce Needs Of
Our Allies.

With record crops grown this year,
the nations farm and live stock pro-
duction must be stimulated to a still
higher efficiency during the coming Il
months If domestic demands and the
needs Of the allies are to be adequately
met, Secretary Houston says in his an
nual report to congress-.
'"That the farmers of the nation
have generously responded to the APP
peals for increased production. and
that much has already been done to
insure large supply Of foods and
feedstuffs," says the report, "justifies
no let-down in their activities or in
those Of all agricultural agencies. On
the contrary, even greater efforts must
be put forth in the coming months.r

PROTECTION FOR HOGS

To protect your hogs from
tuberculosis and to make sure
that your feed will be turned in
to meat instead of fertilizer:
1. See that all milk, especially
all skim milk from the creamery,
is pasteuriZed or cooked before
it is fed to the hogs.
2. Keep your hogs from fol-
lowing dairy cattle, unless the
cattle are tuberculin tested.
Keep them out of the COW lots
and barns, and keep dairy drain
age out Of hog lots. Hogs can
follow steers without much dam
ger.
3. Give your healthy hogs a
chance to keep healthy. Give
them clean, well-drained lots
and plenty of fresh air, sunlight
and clean water. Shelter them
In well-lighted and ventilated,
sanitary hog houses. Keep the
houses clean and use plenty Of
whitewash and disinfectants.
If there was tuberculosis In
your swine last year, it is safest
to get rid Of that herd, especially
the breeding animals, and raise
clean hogs from fresh stock

POTATO SILAGE BEING TRIED
First Reports of Experiments Made by
Agricultural Department Are
Not Pleasing.

The United States department Of
agriculture has been experimenting
with potato sllage. First reports indi-
cate that such silage will not be very
practical. OF course only the small,
unmarketable potatoes are used, but
they must be ground and mixed with
special Tactic acid culture, which
brings about the proper fermentation.
Potato silage made in this way seems
to be good feed for either hogs or cat
tie.

Potatoes add succulence to the dairy
ration. Where corn silage is not avail
able and there are plenty of small po-
tatoes, a peck day will give a marked
increase in milk flow. They should be
introduced into the ration gradually,
and should be run through root cut
ter to avoid the possibility of choking
