DAIRY
KEEPING cows IN OPEN SHED
During Extreme Cold Animals Went
or in Milk Flow RapidIy-ResuIt
of Test Given.

For three years the Pennsylvania
station has kept one lot of cows in an
open shed and another lot in a typical
dairy barn. In the open shed the tenn
perature ranged from zero to about 40
degrees, while in the barn it was kept
mt 40 to 80 degrees most of the time.
During unusually cold weather, the
Open-shed cows went off in their milk
flow much more rapidly than the cows
kept In the barn, but they also re-
sponded more quickly to the return Of
warm weather than the cows in the
barn.
On the average, the cows in the
barn decreased In their milk flow about
20 pounds per week, as compared with
30 pounds per week for the cows In
the open shed. The cows in the barn
gave 2.G6 pounds of milk for each
therm Of energy above that required
for maintenance, whereas the outdoor
cOwa returned only 2.44 pounds of milk
for each therm above that required for
maintenance. The outdoor cows kept
cleaner, but required more bedding.

was necessary to throw out the entire
lot as spoiled. Later the angry pro-
prietOr sat down to write a note and
possibly for reasons of economy used q
sheet Of the condemned paper. To his
increased annoyance the ink spread all
over the paper and he was about to
give up in disgust when the thought
struck him that it might be possible to
use the paper for absorbing ink in
place Of the sand then universally used.
After some successful experimenting
he was able to dispose of his entire
damaged stock under the name of blot
ting paper.
From that time on plotting paper
came into general use. At first 1t was
always pink in color, red rags being
used. Red was a fast color and diff
cult to bleach, hence the red rags were
useless in manufacturing writing pa
paper. But as the color Of blOtting pa
per did not interfere with its useful
ness, red or pink was as good q color
as any other, and thus provided a
means Of utilizing otherwise wasted
material.

FOX, STATESMAN AND ORATOR
bered as Firm Friend Of Ameri.
can independence.

Charles James Fox. great English
statesman. who did so much for Amer
loan independence, entered parliament
as tory at nineteen. and was made
lord of the admiralty at twenty-One.
He incurred the lifelong enmity of
George iii by opposing a royal mar
-iage bill. favored by the king. and at
the kings instance he was dismissed
from office. ThereupOn he left the
tories and Joined the whig party,
whose chief he soon became, leading
them in their splendid opposition to
Lord North and the war which ended
in American independence.
Fox was kept out Of office by the en-
nifty of the king during % of the best
years of his life Uord Grenville final
~ refused to form a cabinet without
him), but managed in spite Of this to
fight valiantly for many good meas
ures, including Indian government re-
form, better libel law and the abO-
ition of the slave trade. He risked
his life rising from sick bed to speak
for the latter.
GaIobling, which his father taught
him as a child, was Fox's besetting
sin. He lost thousands by 1t, but when
In 1893 his friends paid his debts and
settled an annuity upon him, he never
touched a card again.
Fox was one Of the greatest orators
who ever spoke In the British parlia-
ment. He is said to have possessed
"abOve all mOderns that union Of rea-
son, simplicity and vehemence which
formed the prince Of orators"

Shame Makes One Foruet

Forgetting is a strange phenomenon.

that We do not want to remember-es-

many mentally unbalanced men who In
their normal state could not remember

are ashamed and which conflicts with
the customs Of society which is soonest

Only first-class eggs can be mar
keted by parcel post. The shipping OF
bad eggs not only will cause dissatis-
faction or even loss Of the customer,
but, in interstate shipments. will viO-
late the federal food law If there are
more than per cent Of bad eggs in a
shipment. The limit allowed, however,
is no excuse for any bad eggs among
those marketed.
In spite Of the greatest care 1T will
sometimes happen under ordinary farm
conditions that an occasional bad egg
will appear among those sent to mar
ket. 1t would be wise to candle every
egg shipped. Gambling is ''the process
of testing eggs by passing light through
them SO as to reveal the condition Of
the contents" A simple Gambling outfit
may be made of an ordinary paste
board box sufficiently large to be placed
over a small hand lamp after the ends
have been removed. The box should
have hole cut in 1t on level with
the flame of the lamp. Several notches
should be cut In the edges on which the
box rests, to supply air to the lamp.
The box should be sufficiently large to
prevent danger from catching fire. An
ordinary pastebOard box will serve the
purpose. Gambling is done in the dark,
or ut least away from strong light, and
each egg is held against the hole in the
side of the box, when its condition may
be seen. An egg that shows any defect
should not be marketed.

mum Amount Of Milk immedi-
ately After FresheninQ.

Ordinarily most farmers expect
their cows to give their greatest milk
flow Immediately after freshening,
and from that time on to gradually
decrease. This Is not as 1t should
be, however, for 1t is the experience
OF many good feeders that a COW can
be made to increase In milk flow from
the time she calves until month
or more afterward when she is at
her maximum production. 1t requires
careful feeding and close attention to
do this, however. The cows general
condition must be watched and she
must be fed accordingly. There Is
many a COW that is now only an In
different milk producer that might
have a better record to her credit II
she were given better feed and care.

HARD TO CHEAT FATHER TIME
Wise lie the Man Who Appreciates
Value Of punctuality, and Great
ie His Reward.

A young kentuckian has lost n big
fortune by being 70 minutes late in
keeping business engagement.
The cherries old fellow with the
scythe always gets all that is coming
to him. And there is many bad scar
on our fortunes where he has had to
prod Us up to the mark.
Time is cheap, and we are apt to
think we can fitch ii as we will. But
ii is always ourselves we rob, not time.
Maybe you can waste your own time
by being late in keeping engagements
and feel that the loss, if any, is your
own affair. But 1t is also the affair Of
the man you keep waiting. You waste
his time, too. If your time is worth
less, maybe his is not. He may con-
clude that his time is worth more to
him than you are.
In many cases it may not matter
much. But one never knows until af-
terward whether il matters or not.
And through false politeness we are
usually assured that it does not matter
even when it does.
Only the Idle and careless, whose
time is of least value, can afford to
waste it by lOoseness in keeping en-
gagements.
1t may be hard to acquire the fixed
habit of always being on time, but it
can be done, and it is worth while to
do it.
Great business men have This habit.
Men of great affairs, whose time is
most completely taken up, are usually
on time. 1t is they who know best the
value of time and the Importance Of
saving it by being prompt.-Christian
