Mineral Matter and Milk

Experiments conducted by the Blu reau of Animal Industry, United States Department of Agriculture, with dairy COWS are showing an inn portant relation between milk secre- tion and certain mineral substances. Feeding compounds of phosphorus and calcium have resulted in de- cidedly beneficial effect on the milk flow in both quantity and fat content
 It has been shown also that a de- ficiency of phosphorus in dairy ra- tions has a detrimental effect on milk secretion of COWS and growth of calves. A remedy was found in the addition of sodium phosphate to rations deficient in phosphorus. The work is being continued.

TIMES CHANGED
 AT "" CANTEENS
Instead of Rubbers Girls Now
 Wear Dancing Shoes.

CoDlenz.-The Y. M. c. As canteen company in the army of occupation leave areas includes 57 attractive girls from many different cities in the Uni- ted States.
 Wh1e the boys are waiting for the order to evacuate they are putting on an intensive campaign of amusement exclusive Of that staged by a corps of entertainers working under the aus pces or that particular department O.. the association.
 Time has brought many changes for the canteen girls working overseas with the A E. F. A year ago she served chocolate and cookies in make shift quarters along the line in North ern France. Many were under shell nre and those who were not experi- enced the thrills of crawling out of bed at midnight to seek shelter from the Gothas in damp, cold cellars.
 Today the canteen girl works under improved conditions and with every modern convenience to facilitate her enterprise. The huts in Germany are spacious structures, beautifully decor ated and attractively furnished with wicker chairs and settees.
 IT she serves cnocolate-and the chances are she doesn't, for ice cream is now the popular refreshment-it is made in giant marmites each built over 8 stove.
 There are real kitchens in the new huts, with running water and sinks and open windows breaking the rows of neatly arranged cooking utensils that hang on the walls. In the old days many pot of chocolate was boiled over fire built between bricks piled in a hollow square. Sometimes the awter was a mile away and cups had to be used over again and again but that's an old story now.
 The maximum of effort was expend- ed by canteen girls in those days in accomplishing the minimum of result. They worked in rubber boots that pro- tected their feet from the rain and mud Of camps near the combat cen ters. Their supplies didn't always come up. Many, many times the choc- olate wasn't as sweet as it should have been, because the sugar gave out. The cookies were. broken and moist from the rain.
 No doughboy ever gets a broken cookie now. His chocolate is made. according to the most improved reel pes, and there Is always an unlimited supply of ingredients for every dish concocted in the r. M. c. A. kitchens.
 The girl who smiled over the hard ships year ago is still smiling. the doughboys will tell you. They have plenty of time now to leave the ,oun- ter and chat with the soldiers over Chateau Thierry and St. Mihiel and the Meuse-Argonne fights. They know the country, many of them, as wen as the fighter knows it, and they like to talk about the old days just as the fighter does.
 There are number of girls in the huts scattered over the Sd Army re- zion who came over since the armis- tice was signed. The new workers are very popular and have helped to make this territory famous for It's dances, pdcnics, boat excursions on the Rhine and other recreational ac- tfvftaes

 Before Jack could question F1eca- foot he was thrown off the ponyx back. He landed on the hillside win the rest of the boys. He started 2a run. He bumped into the Queen a6 Thriftland.

Little Jack was crying. Moth CT had just put him to bed early. He'd been bad boy. That after noon when his father had given him a bright fifty cent piece to purchase bread at the grocer's, little Jack had returned without the bread and told his father that he lost the money.
 Now Jack had not lost the money. Instead he had kept it himself and later during a friendly tussle with lip, the Irish terrier, the bright fifty cent piece had dropped from Jacks pocket and rolled noisily in front of his fath- CT. Questions followed and Jack con- fessed he had kept the money.
 Jack Visits Thriftland.
 The rays of the evening star shin- ing though the trees rested its beams on Jack. It was very bright and re- minded Jack of the stolen half dollar.
 Suddenly in the zero of the date figures he saw an oval door bound with silver hinges. It flew open.
 The little dream-pony, Fleetfoot, beckoned for Jack to come. Before he realized it he was on Fleetfoot's back. The fleet pony sped far away through the star-lit night, far away from the lonely room with the black shadows.
 Fleetfoot reached the foot of & steep hill.
 we stop here" said the pony.
 Little boys who take money that doesn't belong to them come here,"

Get Back to Clover

From the Atlantic to Iowa and from Tennessee to Canada clover is the key crop in rotations, but there is a gradual though steady decline in the culture of red clover in this area. Specialists in the Bureau of Plant Industry, United States De- partment of Agriculture, are serious ly concerned over this decline and urge all farmers to get back to clo- yer.
 Less planting of clover has iniuri- ously affected the productiveness of the region and is likely to affect it still more injuriously if something IS not done either to increase the acre age of clover or to find substitute.
 "Whether a farmer adopts a three, four, or five year rotation" " the specialists declare, Che is sure to find that his yields will decline if he does not have clover somewhere in the rotation. Theoretically, of course, it is possible to substitute an- other leguminous crop for clover, but practically clover fits so well into the agricultural practices of this section that it is the only leguminous crop having any large degree of in huence upon keeping up the produc- tivity' of the soil"

cotton.eed Meal for Work Stock

One pound of cottonseed, meal per day for each 1000 pounds live weight is the most satisfactory quan- tity to feed work animals, according to recent experiments conducted by the United States Department of Agriculture. A test in feeding cottonseed meal to work horses and
 mules at the Government farm, Beltsville, Md, was begun in 1918, and continued last year. When the meal was fed in large quantities harmful effects were apparent, how ever, indicating that cotton-seed meal, like any other high-protein feed, must be fed with care to horses and mules.

Immunity to Hog Cholera Lasting

Immunity to Hog Cholera Lasting
 A series of recent experiments on duration of immunity to hog cholera following simultaneous inoculation of young pigs supports the conclu- sion that the protection is lasting. The investigations were conducted at Ames, Iowa, by specialists of the United States Department of Agri- culture.
 Altogether I'll pigs, inoculated when a week to six weeks old and exposed to hog cholera, at times varying from 5 months to 9 months and 26 days later, were found with out exception to be immune to that disease.
 Three of the pigs, however, died during the period of exposure from scauses other than hog cholera.
 There was no apparent ill-effect from the simultaneous inoculation in any of the pigs.
 There was no difference in the inn munity of pigs from immune and non-immune sows.
 Pigs that were approximately one week old received 10 cubic centi- meters of anti-hog cholera serum and h c. c. of virus. Pigs that were
