TRAVEL ACCORDING TO MAP

Before leaving on a long-diStance

them the detailed course from the air.

BY means of small balloon, whose
speed direction and height is recorded
by an instrument on the ground, the
force and direction of the wind at diff
ferent attitudes is discovered, and the
compass course, allowing for wind
drift, is marked beside the course on
the map. The compass course for the
return journey is also marked. The
speed of the machine is calculated, and
on the line of the course a series OF
points Is marked, showing where the
machine should be every ten minutes,
thus enabling the airman to check his
progress and to know his approximate
position if he gets lost.
He watches the country below for
landmarks. He sees by his map that
river should appear in a few min
utes. His watch shows that he has
been flying 40 minutes, and near the
45-minute mark on his map is twist
ed pale blue line. He looks ahead
and sees In the moonlight silver
streak and he knows he is making good
time. When he is over the river he
compares its outline with his map,
and sees that he is crossing it at the
right place.

familiar fabrics as embroidered net
and eyelet embroidery and convert
them into a dress as unusual and dis

is this ingenuity in making the best
that can be made of materials that
delights the critic of dress, more than
anything else. Whoever designed this
altogether charming dress for sum-

adapting simple means to trium-

masterpiece.

PURE-BRED SIRE ESSENTIAL
Farmers in Wisconsin Locality Have
Little Chance for Sale If Stock
Is Not of High Grade.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
When buyers of breeding cattle
come to the county agent of Wauke-
sha county, Wisconsin, one of the first
questions they ask of the prospective
seller is. "Does he use a pure-bred
bull?" Upon the answer to this ques-
ton depends the farmers opportunity
to make a sale. If the sire is not a
pure-bred, little chance does that
farmer have of selling stock, no mat
ter how good it looks, he adds. The
county agent reports that approx
mately 20 carloads of pureo bred Guern-
seys and 60 of grades of the same
breed were shipped frCm the county
last year. During the same period 20
cars of pure-bred Holsteins and 70 OF
grades, and several cars of Jerseys
were shipped, also. AS result of the
success which owners Of pure-bred
sires have attained an effort is being
made to clear the county of scrubs.

The large hat for summer wear,
adroitly managed to extend its field
of usefulness, is now a part of the
headwear of gray-haired matrons as
well as favorite with young women.
It has won out, or the older matrOns
have, by a gradual progress. In these
days so many women of middle life
have youthful carriage, youthful
figures. and handsome faces that they
select millinery to match up with these
rather than with their graying hair.
Occasionally one sees a matron with
dark eyes, fresh complexion and white
hair, full of vigor and dressed SUI
perbly to set off her style. 1t has to
be conceded that such woman pos
sesses more distinction than youth can
hope for, in her appearance. And
large hats on gray heads have been
worn by these older discriminating
dressers, but this year they are an
nounced by the authoritative costum-
ers and featured among the showings
of lovely millinery for Easter.
In the group of three hats shown
here, all pictured on youthful models
the large black hat at the top is bet

CHAPTER x-continued.

Under the name Of Weston, Mark
had enlisted in the medical branch OF
the service. It was q lowly brancn'
despised by those who knew nothing
of it's activities. But the choice had
been between that and nothing, for the
first fighting contingents to be sent
overseas embraced only the regulars
not those Of the draft. Mark had en-
listed rather than wait, especially since
he knew that Colonel Howard, with
Kellerman and his staff, were already
in France.
And somewhere within few square
miles was the base Of the American
activities, the headquarters from which
the mobilization in France was being
directed.
'Hurry up to the surgical ward j.
said the matron, as Mark reached her.
rand you, too, Hartley" she added.
| The two men scrambled up the
stairs. At the opposite end Of the
building, an old converted chateau
the convoy had halted. Other order
lies were carrying out the stretchers
with their living, mangled burdens
A group Of the newly arrived doc
tors and nurses was coming up the
stairs. They were all ready for their
work. Mark no longer saw anything
but the wounded men. Dripping with
perspiration, he hurried from the ward
to the pack store and back, innumer'
able times, struggling under great
piles of towels and bedding.

hraced his shoulders and hurried to
obey.
The patient, already etherized, had
been brought in. Mark, watching the
patient narrowly as the surgeon probed
the wound, knew nothing but his task
until the surgeon nudged him familiar
ly in the side while one Of the nurses
was sponging his forehead.

"Where was ft?"
Mark started and looked into the
quizzical gray eyes Of one of the army
doctors from an Arizona town, whom
he had dfned at the mess.
aI think you are mistaken, SIR he
answered quietly.
The surgeon searched his face, and,
like a decent man, admitted his error.
"Another poor devil gone down." he
thought, as he turned to his work.
There were three more operations
following, and Mark sighed with relief
as the last man was carried away. He
took a scrubbing brush and bar of
soap and kneeled down to clean the
floor. while his fellow attendant
secured the sp1ashed table and carried
away the towels.
Mark was conscious that the nurse

PIGS NEED MINERAL MATTER
Unless Ample Supply Is Furnished
Their Growth Is Hindered-
Corn Alone Is Bad.

Pigs have less bone in proportion to
weight than other farm animals and
their growth is hindered materially
unless the feed supplied contains
plenty of mineral matter. The earlier
increase in weight of the pig consists
quite largely of muscle, while the lat
ter increase in weight Is mostly fat.
The young pig, therefore, needs much
more muscle-making feed, such as
milk or tankage (made largely from
the scraps of lean meat at the pack
ing hOuses), or linSeed oilmeal, wheat
shorts, etc. Young pigs will not do
we'll on corn alone or ON corn and
barley unless one of the feeds men
toned is supplied TO furnish protein.
These feeds are also much higher in
mineral matter than corn or barley.

looking into her upturned face with

"It is all over then?" asked Mrs.

April, May and June are the months
when the hens of the country produce
about so per cent of the lay of the
whole year. These are the months,
also, when the thrifty housewife who
has her own hens or who can draw
upon the surplus supply of nearby
nelghbOr puts away in water glass or
limewater eggs for next autumn and
winter. To insure success, care must
be exercised in this operation.
In the first place, the eggs must be
fresh, preferably not m1e than two
or three days old. This is the reason
why it is much more satisfactory to
put away eggs produced in ones own
chicken yard.
InfertiIe Eggs Best.
Infertile eggs are best if they can
be obtained; so, after the Matching,
exclude roosters from the flock and
kill them for the table as needed.
The shells must be clean. Washing
an egg with a soiled sLell lessons its
htSDluS AhC pAolSNs1fS SNit
tinous covering over the shell is re-
moved by water, and when this is gone
the egg spoils more rapidly.
The shells also must be free from
even the tiniest crack. One cracked
egg will spoil large number of sound
eggs when packed in water glass.
Earthenware crooks are good con-
fainers. The crooks must be clean and
sound. Scald them and let them cool
completely before use. A crock hold
ing 6 gallons will accommodate Is
dozens of eggs and about % pints of
solution. Too large crooks are not de-
sirable, since they increase the lia-
bility Of breaking some of the eggs
and spelling the entire batch.
1t must be remembered that the eggs
on the bottom crack first and that
those in the bottom of the crooks are
the last to be removed for use. Eggs
can be put up in smaller crooks and
the eggs put in the crock first should
be used first In the household.
Water-Glass Method.
"Water glass" is known to the chem
ist as sodium silicate. 1t can be pur'
chased by the quart from druggists OF

poultry supply men. 1t is a pale yell
low, odorless, sirupy liquid. 1t is dilut-
ed in the proportion Of l part of sill
cate to parts of distilled water, rain
water, or other water. In any case,
the water should be boiled and then
allowed to COOL Half fill the vessel
with this solution and place the eggs in
ft, being careful not to crack them.
Eggs can be added until the container
is filled. Be sure to keep about inches
of water glass above the eggs. Cover
the crock, and place 1t in the coolest
place available from which the crock
will not have to be moved. Inspect the
crock from time to time and replace
| any water that has evaporated with
cool boiled water.
Use Preserved Eggs.
When the eggs are to be used, re-
move them as desired rinse in clean,
cold water, and use Immediately.
Eggs preserved in water glass can
be used for soft boiling or poaching ur

for frying until about December.
From that time until the end of the

cites, scrambled eggs, custards, cakes,

spondingly difficult to separate the
whites from the yOlks.
LimeWater Method.
Limewater is also satisfactory fo-
preserving eggs and is slightly less eS'
pensive than water glass. A solution
is made by placing 2 or 3 pounds OF
unslaked lime in gallons of water
which has been boiled and allowed tc
cool. and allowing the mixture to stand
until the lime settles and the liquid is
clear The eggs should be placed in a
clean earthenware jar or other suitable
vessel and covered to a depth of Z
inches with the liquid. Remove the
eggs as desired, rinse in clean, cold
water, and use Immediately.

British Urged to Keep Goats.

"Goat getting" is coming right along
as a national sport in England, says
London dispatch. Everyone who
knows anything about Mamie is writ

get one goat at least and more if pos

of goat yields about two quarts of
milk daily and the gentlemen of the
species-the boys with the Farmer

HOG MARKETING MONTHS

More hogs are marketed IN
December than in any otner
month of the year, according TO
studies of hog marketing now
being made by the United STATES
food administration. During the
hot months of the year, July,
August and September, the ship
ments are only about one-half
those of the winter months. At
ter January, receipts at packing
centers decline in each of the
succeeding months until May
and June, when there is another
increase.
The two high points of the
wear in December and June re-
fleet the marketing of the two
crops of pigs that are produced
each year and are firished for
market during those months.
