CAN 1 AFFORD TO FEED MY
HIGH PRICED HAY TO MY
DAIRY cow.

This question is uppermost in the
minds Of many farmers since the price
of hay has been arbitrarily set at SIS
to $3.50 per ton for AL hay. In
order to decide this let us consider
several factors that should affect our
decision.
In the first place this price is for
the very best hay and much of that
produced by us will n net that
amount. Also if we stop to think about
it someone else will make a profit
from feeding this hay after buying it
at higher prices than would be re-
ceived by us. After freight and com
missions are paid the same hay may
sell for $25 or $50 per ton to dairy
men in other sections of the United
States. They can and do afford to
pay these prices because of the fol-
lowing
1. By feeding it to good dairy cows
(they know they have good dairy cows
by keeping records and culling out
the poor ones). If you are testing
your cows and finding that you are
losing on all of them then it is no
doubt better for you to sell them and
your hay to the highest bidder. If
you are not testing them it is impos-
sible TO correctly advise you. Be
perfectly fair to yourself and your
cows. No doubt some are good and
some are poor. Keep the good ones,
and dispose of the poor ones because
you cannot afford to feed a star
boarder." 1t is an unquestioned fact
that a good COW will produce as much
net profit as rs poor ones
2. Another factor that will deter
mine whether to sell or not is the
amount and kind of feed to be fed.
If alfalfa hay alone is fed, a different
problem is presented than where a
balanced ration is available. As
eminent an authority as Professor
Eccles has suggested the following
ration:
For 100 lbs. live weight-feed per
day l TO IA lbs. alfalfa hay and 215
to s lbs. ~succulent feed (corn, beet
top or other silage and root crop, etc.
And l ID. grain per day for every Id.
OF butter fat produced in a week. Ad-
just this to the individual needs of
your cows.
On this basis a 1900 ID. COW would

Deafness Cannot he Cured

by local applications, as they can
not reach the diseased portion of the
ear There is only one way to cure
deafness, and that is by constitu-
tional remedies. Deafness is caused
by an infiamed condition of the mu-
cous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube is inflamed you have
rumbling sound or imperfect hear
ing, and when 1t is entirely closed,
Deafness is the result. and unless
the inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever, nine cases out of ten are
caused by Catarrh, which is nothing
but an iniamed condition of the
mucous surfaces.

NV First Official Bath.

Right behind our rest billet was n
large creek about ten feet deep and
twenty feet across and II was habit
of the company to avail themselves Of
an opportunity to take a swim and at
the same time thoroughly wash them
selves and their underwear when on
their own. We were having a spell Of
hot weather and these baths to us
were luxury. The TommIes would
splash around In the water and then
come out and sit In the sun and have
what they termed 'shirt hunt" AT
first we tried to drown the "cooties."
but they also seemed to enjoy the bath.
One Sunday morning the whole sec
tion was In the creek and we were hav-
ang a gay time, when the sergeant ma
tor appeared on the scene. He came
to the edge of the creek and ordered:
"Come out Of 1t. Get your equipment
on, drill order and fall in for bath
parade. Look lively, my hearties. You
have only got fifteen minutes" A howl
of indignation from the creek greeted
this order, but out we came. Disci-
pline Is discipline. We lined up in
front of our billet with rifles and bay
bnets (why you need rifles and bayo-
nets to take bath gets mel, a full
quota OF ammunition, and our tin hats.
Each man had piece of soap and
towel. After an eight-kilo march along
"A dusty road, with an occasional shell
whistling overhead, we arrived at a
little squat frame building upon the
bank Of creek. Nailed over the door
of this building was large sign which
read divisional Baths" In wooden
shed In the rear we could hear
'wheezy old engine pumping water.

GERMAN ATTACK MAY
PROVE COMPLETE FAILURE

With the British Army in France
April with the passing of the
thirteenth day of the new battle oil
the Somme, there came increasing
evidence that the great German
machine with which 1t was intended
to crush the allied line, has almost
utterly spent itself. Where pre-
viously the Germans had thrown
men into the fray, not counting the
prodigious wastage in killed or
wounded, Tuesday saw them decline,
anywhere, to give battle.
While admittedly, both the French
and British armies have suffered
rather severe casualties as they
stood valiantly to their task of i'm
peding the Germans and making
them pay an unheard-of price for
every foot of ground gained, their
reserves have been conserved, with
the utmost care, behind the lines for
the fateful time when the whitening
fire Of the allied guns and machine
guns should have sa blighted the
German hordes as to bring more
in strength to the fighting
forces. And, all along, the British
and French commanders have not
left outside their calculations that
staunch band of Americans, exceed
ing 100000 men, who are fully train
I'd and equipped, and anxious to lend |
heir aid in the task of defeating the
Germans.

Pretty soon n bell rang and the wa
ter waa turned on. Some OF the slower
ones we're covered with soap, but THIS
made no difference 20" the sergeant
who chased us into another room,
where we lined up In front OF little
J window, resembling the box ONCE In a
I theater. and received clean underwear
and towels. From here we went into
the room where we had first undressed.
Ten minutes were allowed in which TO
get into our "clabber."
MY pair OF drawers came M TO my
chin and the shirt barely reached my
diaphragm. but they were elean-no
strangers on them, so | was satisfied.
AT the expiration OF the time allot-
ted we were turned out and finished
our dressing on the grass.
When all OF the company had bathed
Il was case OF march back 10 billets.
That march was the most uncongenlal
one imagined, Just GUESSING and blind
Ing all the way. We were covered with
white dust and felt greasy from sweat.
Inc WOoltn unhflMthl loouth Nh'
itching like the mischief.
After eating our dinner of stew,
which had been kept for us-it was
now four O'clock-we went into the
creek and had another bath.
If "Holy Joe" could have heard our
remarks about the divisional baths
and army red tape he would have
tainted nj our wlckedness. But Tom
my is only human after all.
Just mentioned holy Joe" or the
chaplain In an irreverent sort Of way,
but no offense was meant, as there
were some very brave men among
them.
There are so many instances Of he
role deeds performed under fire In res
cuIng the wounded that It would take
several books to chronicle them, but
have TO mention one instance per-
formed by chaplain, Captain Hall by
name In the brigade on our left, be-
cause II particularly appealed to me.
A chaplain is not fighting man he
Is recognized as a noncombatant and
carries no arms. In charge or trench
raid the soldier gets a feeling OF con-
fidence from contact with his rifle, re-
volver, or bomb he is carrying. He has
something to protect himself with,
something with which he can in1lict
harm on the enemy-in other words,
he Is able to get his own back.
But the chaplain is empty-handed,
and is at the mercy of the enemy II
he encounters them, so ii is doubly
brave for him TO go over the top, under
fire, and bring in wounded. Also a
chaplain is not required by the kings !
regulations to go over In charge, but !
this one did made three trips under !,
the hottest kind of fire, each time re-
turning with wounded man on his
back. On the third trip he received
a bullet through his left arm, but never
the matter to the doctor until
late that night-just spent his time ad-
to the wants Of the wound
ed lying on stretchers.
The chaplalns Of the British army
are fine, manly set OF men, and are
greatly respected by Tommy.

than prunes may be used.

For the individual salad s n slice
Bermuda onion and two of orange,
Serve on lettuce leaves with French

Cottage Cheese With Care-Cot-
tage cheese cannot be made lust any
old way" 1t is important hat it
should not be tough and leathery and
this means a rather low, wen temper
AZURE while the sour milk is being
heated. If possible use a dairy ther.
mometer and see that the temperature
is kept at 100 degrees Fahrenheit for
80 minutes, after which time the curd
may be strained from the whey
through a cheese cloth bag. After S
or 10 minutes the curd may be worked
toward the center with a spoon. Rails
ing and lowering the ends of the bag
helps the whey to drain faster. To
complete the draining tie the ends Of
the bag together and hang it up. Since
there is some danger that the curd
will become too dry, draining should
stop when the whey ceases t. flow in
a steady stream. The curd is then
emptied from the bag and worked
with a spoon or a butter paddle until
it becomes fine in grain, smooth and
of the consistency of mashed potatoes.
Sour or sweet cream nay be added
to increase the smoothness and TO
improve the favor Then the chees"
is sailed to taste, about ] teaspoon
to a pound of curd.
