DRESS UP AND CLEAN
UP TIME HAVE ARRIVED

National paint up and Clean up"
and 'Dress Up" campaigns are being
carried on this week throughout
many cities OF the United States.
This is the season of the year when
everyone gets the fever for cleaning
up and painting up as well as "dress-
ing up" and all have a place in the
seasons work. A united campaign
on clean up and paint up in Audi
bon is most timely and the weather
is just right for everyone to get the
spring cleaning out of the way. East
er week Is here. Easter is always a
season of dressing up. This week
the dress up question from father
down to the wee baby will be given
some close attention, in all the
homes of the county to a greater or
less extent. One little miss just past
five years of age informed her elders
the other day, 81 know what kind of
Easter shoes l want but I am not 60
ing to tell you the kind until l get
down town and pick them out my
self" Wisdom from the mouths of
babes, bat almost everyone knows
the kind of garments they want If
they take the time and have the
money to make the purchase. Wise
advertisers will make suggestions in
the mater now for the benefit of
families belonging to over 1000
homes, where the Audubon Republi-
can is delivered each week.

IOWA CATTLE FEEDERS DAY

Whether molasses feeding for fat
tening cattle is profitable is one OF
the questions to be discussed at the
annual cattle feeders day to be held
in the Judging pavilion at Iowa State
College, Ames, Iowa, on April 29th,
at 800 a. m. An invitation to all
farmers, cattle feeders and represen-
tatives of farm papers to be present
is being sent out by H. H. Kildee and
John NJ. Evvard of the animal hus-
bandry department.
The seven groups of two -year-old
steers on feed are demonstrating the
plans of commercial molasses feed
in the ration and also the value of a
full corn grain versus no corn grain
ration along with corn silage, alfalfa
hay, ell meal and salt.
The live question of how much
grain to feed and the puzzling ques-
ton of commercial feed used will be
thoroughly gone into. The real cat
tie, ready for market, and fed in a
way so as to gain the necessary data
on these problems will, in combina-
tion with their feed and cost records,
tell the story of what to do and how
to do it.
Expert cattle men, buyers, and
sellers, from the yards, will place ac-
tual valuations on the cattle, give
talks and answer feeders questions.
The packers will be represented.

THE ART OF BETTING

Out of one of the army camps
comes this one: A young private
showed ususual luck in gambling and
after cleaning up his squad, worked
on his, company. then cleaned up the
whole regiment and finally was max
ing inroads upon the wealth of the
whole division. Whereupon the col
onel became exasperated and consult
ed the private's captain, VINO said
there was no way of stopping him.
send him to me-" said the col
onel, ''I'll fix him."
The lucky private reported and
the colonel asked him why he per-
sisted in gambling.
well, Colonel said the private,
Il just can't help it. l seem to have
the knack of always winning. Why,
Colonel, I'm so lucky that I'd be will
ing to bet that there's a mole in the
middle of your back"
ooh, what are you handing me?"
howled the colonel in disgust.
f. Eyes, sir, I'll bet you $40 you
have"
The colonel thought this too easy
to resist, and covered the bet. Then
he took off his jacket and shirt and
showed the private that no mole ex-
listed.
Taking his easily won $40 the col
onel went to the captain and report
ed that he had taught the gambler a
lesson.
Eyes you did" replied the captain.
81 should say you did-not! Just
before he went to you he bet me 5000
he could bet your shirt off your
back.

RATTLESNAKE DOES NOT
WARN VICTIMS OF ATTACK

The rattlesnake does not give a
warning He strikes almost invari-
ably without rafting. This is the
conclusion of Prof. Homer r. Dill,
museum expert at the University of
Iowa, after careful observation of
live rattlers.
The rattle of the snake assists it
in an attack. rather than warns the
victim. Professor Dill states. Ger
tain small animals put in the box in
which the rattlesnake is kept at the
university were struck by the snake
before it made a sound.
Professor Dill's theory of the rat
tie is that it is used to terrify the vic
tim. The animal is thrown into a
sort of a coma and stands Supplied
until it is killed. In the case of a
bird which was placed in with the
snake the feathers absorbed the ven.
ON which the snake injected through
its fangs, making it necessary for the
snake to strike again before killing
its prey. Under such conditions the
snake employs his rattle to terrify its
victim until it is motionless.
Scientists, as well as laymen. have
always labored under the delusion
that the rattlesnake plays fair and
does not strike without giving warn
ing Professor Dill set to work un'
der the theory that it was unnatural
| for an animal or reptile to warn its
prey, and his observations with live
snakes bear out this hypothesis.
In his recent trip to Mississippi
Delta and the islands of the gulf
Professor Dill collected snakes and
other animals at night in the swamps
by the light of their own eyes. From
such observations and from his study
of the rattlesnake in the laboratory
he has concluded that the old theory
of the rattlesnake's not warning is
essentially false.

JUST FOR FUN
A Dreadful Passage

Irving S. Cobb told in Philadelphia
a story about a seasick correspon-
dent.
This correspondent, he said,
was Unexpectedly called from the
French front to Londan. His wife
was in London, but he had not time
to wire her from Calais. Anyhow it
would do, he decided, if he wired her
from Dover.
He had dreadful stormy passage
across the channel. he was frightful-
ly seasick, and he had to give up his
berth to an old lady, the mother of
general. Finally, pale and hag-
gard, he reached Dover and sent his
telegram. Two hours later his wife
received it. 1t ran:
Expect me home at noon. Dread
full passage. Gave birth to an old
lady on leaving Calais"
