Correspondence from Rice

W. l.. Biggar has purchased a
Mehring Foot Power milking machine
which he has been using for about
six weeks with very satisfactory re-
suits. This is the first machine of
this kind to be used in the county.
The machine milks two cows at
time and from sixteen to twenty
cows can be MIXED in an hour with
it. 1t is operated by foot power, so
costs nothing to operate. The machine
is easy to use, and easy to keep
clean and makes milking a pleasure
instead of drudgery. Mr.. Biggar
is now milking eight cows, mostly
Jerseys, and expects to purchase at
least two more. Before purchasing
the machine Mr.. Biggar wrote to
several users on the coast and each
one written to reported that they
liked the mixer and that it was sat-
isfactory.

Various Species Of Asters.

About 100 different species of as
tiers are native In the United States
and "a of these are found in north
eastern America All but dozen are
purple and blue and even botanlsts
find it requires patient study to dis
tinguish their many species. The New
England aster is the most striking OF
the group. 1t has a stout, hardy STEM
sometimes eight feet high, and large
vIolet-purple and sometimes pinkish
flowers, and Is found in the swamps
in the late summer. Great Britain
claims only one native aster. Many
American species are cultivated In
English gardens under the name OF
Michaelmas daisies. The Swiss spe-
cies is the most beautiful purple aster
which is found In such quantities along
the New England highways In the au-

Fire without matches may be pro-
duced with a handful of dry grass and
two pieces of wood, one called the tin
derwood, and the other piece OF very
hard wood or very soft wood that Is
called the drill or spindle. A hand
full of dry grass is placed on a solid
rock or board, and notch is cut In
the Underwood. The Underwood Is
then placed on the dry grass and the
spindle, is inserted in the notch In
the Underwood. The spindle Is made
to spin at fast rate between the
palms of the hands until coal is pro-
duced. Then the dry grass Is taken
up in the hands and blown on to make
a blaze. 1t Is then dropped on the
ground and dry twigs and other grass
piled on A much quicker method
than using the palms of the hands is
to have bow with a leather thong
stretched on 1t. The spindle Is liked
with one turn around it and made to-
revolve very fast in the notch OF the

How 1t Is Done

There are several ways OF figur-
ing your income tax, one being
the proper way, the other the cor
rect way and the third as follows:
Farmers should multiply the num-
her Of chickens by the number Of
spotted pigs; divide this by the
number of your tax receipt and add
it to the the number of your last
years automobile license; if you
are married and have a piano, add
your age to that of your wife's and
subtract this amount from your
previous total. If the number ends
in five, go before a notary and
swear yourself black in the face.
Then send in your tax statement
and wait the result.

A Kendrick business man, whose
income was hardly as large as that
of the average farmer who has 100
acres, made the statement the other
day that his gifts for public well
fare work during the past year, a.
mounted to considerably over $3.50.
These gifts included money given
to the church, road donations and
many smaller amounts donated dur
ing the course Of the year. This
money really came out of the net
earnings of the business in which
he was engaged and represented
considerable sacrifice on his part.
Why did he make these gifts? It
was simply because he had the in
terest OF the community at heart.
He was trying to help along the
things that are uplifting to the
town and surrounding country.
There r many more in town who
give just as generously al he does,
and have the same idea Of service
in mind. The grocery peddlers and
mail order firms are not leaving
any Of their money in the COM
munity. With them 1t is a case of

it coming back.
