One situated as you are had best pro-
coed as follows: On the morning of some
clear, bright day cut down your corn,
using any convenient implement for the
purpose. II the area is not large you
may cut with sickle. If it is of a good
size you might cut with the moving
machine. We would not attempt to bind
his corn up at the stage Of develop
ment in which you describe IL to be at
this time. We would allow it TO lie
on the ground in the sun all day and
possibly the next day; long enough. in
fact, to quite thoroughly dry IL out;
but not sufficiently long to cause the
leaves 10 be so dry that they will crum-
BILE as soon as an attempt is made to
gather up the fodder. After II has been
handled in this manner, we think you
can bind together in sheaves and shock
1t up as is ordinarily done with this
crop by many farmers in the fall of
the year. You will find that corn cut at
the stage you indicate contains more
nutriment in the leaves and stalk rela-
lively than in the grain and ear. II
makes a very excellent type of food for
various classes of stock IL is particu-
larly valuable for dairy cows and beef
cattle. When properly cured and stored
II may be run through a cutting box.

This Cow Evidences Symptoms Of Milk


J. y. N, Evergreen, Ala. writes: l have
a COW that brought "A calf a month ago. As
far as | know she did all right until the
calf was nine days old and then she com
menced to having fits. She would begin
trembling and turning around until She
would fall to the ground and would lie there
for half hour and then in two or three
hours the same thing would Occurr again,
and now she is almost blind. Would like
TO know what caused the trouble and what
to do for It.

1t does not seem il would be practi-
cal to use cans Of the character mention
ed in the manner you have indicated 1t
seems to me that il would be infinitely
more desirable to purchase new cans
for this purpose. and that this would be
the wise and safe policy to pursue in
any event. With new cans there is no
danger of infection, as they should come
TO you practically sterile. If not, you
can boil and handle them so as to render
them absolutely clean and sanitary. As
a matter of fact you can handle new
cans with expedition. whereas cans Of
the character mentioned, IT seems to me.
could only be utilized with a good deal
of trouble. Then, If the fruit put up In
such cans were to spoil IL would more
than offset the cost Of purchasing new
cans.

1t is difficult to determine from the
symptoms contained in your letter just
the trouble from which your cow is suf-
fering, but we imagine that it was due
to an attack of what is known as milk
fever. This is disease not uncommon
ly associated with reproduction. 1t is
rather remarkable that your COW made
a recovery at all, as this disease is quite
generally fatal unless promptly and eff
fectively treated. The best remedy when
such cases occur is to pump filtered air
into the udder. In one or two hours
after such injection the COW frequently
gets up. A bicycle pump may be used
for this purpose, but it should contain
a plug of cotton through which to filter
the air. To the end of such an instru-
ment should be attached a short piece of
rubber tubing and glass tip. 1t is very
important that the udder be thoroughly
distended. In such cases it is very good
practice to give a purgative, say
pound and a half of Epson salts in
warm water. There is little you can do
for your COW except to give her an
abundance of laxative and easily d.
gested food. She should be turned in a
good pascture and fed chiefly on bran,
rather than cottonseed meal and other
concentrates for some time. The
chances are that in the course of time
her general health will improve and she
may never have another attack of this
trouble.

Quo Vadis

The tendency of these times is for
reckless sailing but where will we
land ?
Boundary county has gone into
debt for $125,000 and has made no
beginning on the new state road yet.
The latest fad is the county agent.
Now the fact is that no real farmer
requires no such useless luxury. 1t
being the farmers lot to dig his
money out of the soil and therefor
is not given to many dashing, grasp
ing propensities as the city fellows
and therefor is considered ignorant
By this the inference is made he
should have someone to give him adj
vice and talk to him. The farming
industry not having been very ex-
tensive in Boundary county, while
others are not furnished with advis-
DRY departments. l think it may
cause animosity among the people
which at the present time should be
avoided. At the present time when
race hatred is rampant all over
Europe and even in this cosmopolitan
land of our own.

Commercial Club Activities

President James, of the Kootenai
Valley Commercial club, plans to APP
point committee in the near future
which will be asked to visit every
merchant in Bonners Ferry in the
effort to secure new members fol
the club.
The organization is one which
should have the surnort and hearty
cooperation of every citizen. 1t has
accomplished much in the past anC
can only expect to keep on the gooc
work when all have joined hands
and expressed their willingness tC
work for the common good.
1t has also been suggested that {
county fair be held this fall and Sec
rotary Kent is very anxious to Sc
cure expressions from all the farm
ers and business men along this line
If anything is to be done in the way
of a fair this fall it is certain that
preliminary arrangements should be
made now. The farmer who will bring
exhibits should make preparations t.
grow extra fine specimens at the
time Of the spring planting. Premium
lists should be gotten out early SC
that exhibitors will know, long in ad.
vance, of the inducements to be
offered.
Another plan of the commercial
club which deserves encouragement
is that of securing ground and allot.
ting tract to every boy and girl in
this community for the purpose OF
raising potatoes or other vegetables
the coming summer. If this plar
is carried out the youthful farmers
will probably be offered prizes for
the finest, largest crops and they
will be given an opportunity to Learn
how to prepare the soil and care
for the plants they grow.

HICKS FLETCHER HAS
THRILLING EXPERIENCE

G. Hicks Fletcher writes the follow
ing interesting letter to his parents
here:
England, Sept. Is, 1918.
Dear Folks: Just week since J
heard from you. We left here the
same day | got your letter and did
rot have time to write. We only
touched one port and that was in
little out-of-the-way island. This trip
was the worst one we have had over
here and even worse than the worst
mart of the trip coming over. It was
n continual storm from the time we
left here until we got back. II got
so rough for us that we had to put
in at this little island but we didn't
stay there long. The island is a
forlorn place; the history OF 1t is very
interesting as it was formerly rem
devious for pirates, and even now i
is not much better. 1t is awfully
rocky around the coast Of it and we
saw several ships that had been ship
wrecked there. We bought all kinds
of American candies, baked beans,
chewing gum and grape-nuts that had
come from America, evidently Off OF
the vessels that had been ship
wrecked or torpedoed, and bought
them at prices cheaper than in the
States. We we're only supposed to
he out for few days and we just
carried enough food along to last us
that long, but they kept us out twice
as long, so if we hadn't bought the
beans and breakfast food, we would
have starved before we got back. Al

Enjoyed Pleasant
Luncheon TODAY

About twenty representative bus.
mess people attended the luncheon Of
the Membership Council of the Cham.
Der OF Commerce, which was held at
the Elks Club at noon today. A
splendid meal was enjoyed during
winch those present found pleasure
in pleasant association and in the dis.
cussion of matters tending towards
the common good.
The motorcade in celebration Of the
completion of the county good road
system was reported on, and the date
OF this event is set for the week of
October 25th, following the close of
the Fourth Liberty Loan campaign.
Committees are at work on the vari-
GUS features of this enterprise, and
it promises to be a great success.
In connection with the motorcade
IL was suggested that a uniform pen
nant be adopted to be displayed on all
Lakeland cars, and "a sample being
submitted, suitable in design and
reasonable in price, the purchase of
100 Of these pennants was recon-
mended to the Board of Directors.
The fact that the city is absolutely
without literature to send out in re-
Spouse to numerous inquiries re-
ceived, called up the fact that the
matter of assistance from the city for
advertising had not yet been received
and it being understood that the
Commissioners will meet next Tues
day morning at nine o'clock to fix the
budget, it was determined that as
many Of those present as could, would
attend this meeting and try to secure
some definite action on this PROPOSE
ton.

Time To Be Changed
Back An Hour
On October II

The government has issued orders
to all railroad officials to change the
clocks on Oct. q, moving them back
one hour on that date-reinstating the
same time we had before we moved
the clocks up an hour. This change
will be effective during the winter
months, and in the early spring the
clocks will be moved up an hour to
the present time.
The change to the old time is
deemed necessary in order to save
daylight at the first of the day many
people having to burn lights for
breakfast under the present time
system. Therefore, beginning Oct.
~ the clocks will be moved back one
hour and twelve o'clock now will be
eleven o'clock then.
