II q success. However. the failures
are the exception and not the rule,
though tho papers print only the
names OF the failures who apply for
divorces or get into court
II tho papers ever attempted to

or course there are divorces, but
don't they all remnrry? And Is that
not sufficient evidence that marriage
is a success? 1t is not marriage
that is a failure, but circumstances
which make the living together of
two human beings unbearable. or
impossible.
Marriage Is the foundation of the
home; OF society: of the community:

enjoy; yes, II Is more than that. 1t

ALWAYS CONsULTs HER
HUSBAND, IS HAPPY.

Both man and woman should be
sure they love each other. And
when they marry there will be no
question of 'distrust. Most girls OF
today marry either to get a home
or mostly to get free from their
parents. I have been married two
years and can say 1 have never
auarreled with my husband yet. I
always consult him of anything
wish to do and he does the same
with me. We then compare our de-
cisions and everything always
comes out o. X. Both husband and
wife should be sure to be
true to each other. They should
never lie to one another, for
once they suspect the other Is not
telling the truth II will break the
trust, and once it is broken they
will never agree or get along at

Ten Essentials

General improvement in the type and quality of beef animals the country over is one of the means urged by the de- partment of agriculture for bringing down the high cost of meat to the consumer. and, at the same time, increasing the profit or me producer. Some of the most essential items in growing beef on the farm, specialists of the department say, are:
 Plenty of pasture and feed.
 The right kind of cows-those that will produce good calves regularly.
 good, pure-bred, registered bull, one that will sire good calves persistently.
 A large calf crop. This means that all cows shall drop calves, and that Ipe calves shall be properly cared for at birth.
 Proper care of the breeding herd and the calves.
 Selection of good heifer calves to re- place old or inferior cows
 Prevention of disease among the breed ing herd and the younger stock
 Shelter sufficient to protect the cattle from both severe cold and extremely hot weather.
 Marketing to advantage
 There is a Farmers Bulletin, No. 1073, on growing beef on the farm that may be had free on application to the Division of Publications, United States Department
 
 Live stock owners are earnestly re- quested not to wait until the states and federal government come into their lo- cslites to eradicate tuberculosis. It would not be possible, in deed, at this stage to undertake to eradicate tuberculosis from the live stocw of the United States solely through organized official forces estab- lished by the respective states and the federal government. The area over which tuberculosis has spread is too vast, the herds too numerous, and funds are in- sufficient for conducting the work on so extensive a plan, even though trained veterinarians were available in sufficient numbers to do the work. Every live stock owner should be party to this campaign which has been inaugurated to eradicate tuberculosis. In almost every locality of the United States are veter- inarians capable of rendering valuable services to live stock owners in this great work and the most of eradicating is greatly reduced by combating the dis case in it's early stages. Yet even in badly affected herds eradication can be undertaken with success. There are rec ords of many herds, in which three fourths of the animals were affected with tuberculosis, which eventually were freed from it, and afterwards maintained in a healthy condition.
