Weigh Your Milk

Are you losing money on you
 cows? Have you figures to prove itt If it is worth while to keep cows. fl surely should be worth while to know just what they can do. Your cows are part of your business, a very real business which should support you and your family; and no business is on sound basis unless its manager knows where the money comes from and where it goes.
 It is rather regretable, but never theless a proven fact, that no reason- able guess can be made of the pro- daction of q COW, says John Al Kuelling of the Dairy Department at Connecticut Agricultural College at Storrs. There is just one way to know how much milk a COW will give-that is to weigh the milk at each milking. This requires little extra equipment or time, and not only gives an accurate record of pro- ducticn but also permits more care ful study of the cow and creates an interest in her. Moreover, the Ex- tension Service at the Connecticut Agricultural College can give you much aid and advice if you will keep these highly important daily milk records.

FOR THE FUTURE.

Every man who has served in the United States military forces is ad- vfsed, when receiving his official discharge papers, to have record made of them in his home town. This is to be done in ease tha napers themselves should be lost, for in that event the man will not be without some authoritative statement of the service he has rendered his country, and this might in many circum- stances be very essential to the man or his family.
 In the town of North Canaan this record is to be quite complete and exact. The Town Clerk proposes to follow a system which in thorough ness has not been attempted by any other community in this state, at least so far as is known.
 The plan is to have S sheet printed as an exact copy of the discharge paper itself, and to fill it in as du- plicate fthat statement of the mili- tary authorities. A second page for each man will be printed for record of facts not contained in the dis charge papers, but which might be of some future interest, viz, cita- tations, wounds received, the time and location of overseas service. the t1afning camp, record, etc. These will be sworn to, signed nd e""led.
 These sheets will be fl, in T Lose leaf book, and the sar." ,.3ct with the town records. This ~.'&ister will be of inestimable value Il days to come, a source of reliable infoTna- tion and, we are sure, Of just pride to the families of our men and to the community.

 Little Rest or Comfort
 There is little sleep, little rest, little peace for many n sufferer from kidney trouble. Life is one contin- ual round of pain. You can't rest at night when there's kidney back ache. You suffer twinges and "stabs" of pain, annoying urinary disorders lameness and nervousness. You can't be comfortable at work with darting pains and blinding dizzy spells. Neglect these ailments and serious trouble may follow. Begin using Doan's Kidney Pills at the first sign of disorder Thou3auds have testified to their merit.
 Proof in Canaan testimony:
 l. E. Curtis, carpenter, R. r. D., says: About a year ago I suffered quite a bit from baekache. I had dull, heavy pains in the small of my back and felt all tired out. l heard of Doan's Kidney Pills and got some from Farnum X Co.'s Drug Store. Two boxes cured me of the attack"

GOOD ROADS 1919 PROGRAM
Michigan Starting on Greatest Era Of
Highway Construction in His
tory of State.

Michigan is going to start on the
greatest era of road building in the
states history, declares Edward N.
Hines, first vice president of the De-
troit Automobile club. Mr.. Hines adds
that Michigan highway constructors
have seen the folly of their ways in
building reads too narrow and of types
not permanent. They will correct this
In the future.
Every citizen, including the farmer,
business man, laboring man and the
resident of the small town, sees the
need of permanent highways, the case
being proven to them by wartime con-
ditions, according to Mr.. Hines. This
was brought about by the inadequate
freight and express service, the food
situation and the general need to con-
serve labor wherever feasible.
Had the war continued" Mr. Hines
stated, 81 had records of projects for
building of concrete roads in the state
that likely would have been put
through by the proper authorities in
Washington because of their war ne
cessity, there being some 656,O00
square yards. Other projects for con-
crete roads in Michigan financed by
the Covert act whose issues were sold
and the money not expended during the
past season, and direct tax levies
amounted to 1,347,909 square yards,
total for the state of close to 100000
square yards. All of this will be built
in 1919 and in all probability this yard
age will be doubled by the time the
road construction work begins in the
spring.
Wayne county's concrete roads
have stood the test since the United
States entered the world conflict. The
normal traffic, plus the enormous war
haulage by army trucks over concrete
roads seven, eight, nine and ten years
old. was handled satisfactorily and
the highways held up in perfect con-
dition. Eyes of the road builders
throughout the country have been fo-
cused on Wayne county's roads and
the practical demonstration of the
value of permanent roads has been
proven here in the vicinity of Detroit.
"Wayne, leader among the counties
Of Michigan in mileage of improved
roads, asked for no county road tax
this year and will have to rely on the
money received from automobile IL
censes. Consequently 1919 viii not APP
