Berries can be frozen in the crates
in which they are marketed in tenn

from cold storage when wanted.
The fruits become waterlogged when
taken out and collapse and therefore
must be used Immediately. Govern

in the breeding and sale all classes of live stock
In the case of - farms surveyed in Henry
county, Indiana, by the department of agriculture
II made average labor income of 81 ,423 year.
These farms kept the most live STOCK averaging
81 animal units-that is, 81 full-grown cattle,
their equivalent in smaller animals Sixteen farms
made an average labor income of S4T9 These
farms kept live stock averaging 10 animal units
per farm. Fifteen farms made average labor
income of but 81. Not one Of these farms kept
more than 10 animal units.
Dividing these farms into three groups accord
ing to the number of animals to acre, the
same tendency is shown. The heavily
stocked the farm the larger the labor income.
specific example of what can be accomplished
by raising more and better stock is that of corn
belt farm, formerly managed q straight-grain
farm, that for the past five years has been oper-
ated a hog farm. The system followed is
rather unusual, in that but one litter is raised
each year, the sOws bred being gifts, which
fattened and sold after their pigs have been
weaned. The pigs, put on full feed self-feed-
ers are sold when from six to seven months old.
Enough hogs are bought to hog down the corn
crop. The profits realized are far in advance
of those realized under the old system. For the
past three years, respectively, the net returns
from the hog enterprise alone have been 81 ,259,
S1,859. and S3,733-
1t should be borne in mind in this connection
however, that, just as a large acreage may be a
handicap rather than advantage unless used to
advantage, so live stock may be liability rather
than an asset unless the quality of the animals
is high. The scrub cows a man has the
worse off he is if he persists in trying to produce
milk from them, and in cases the quickest
way 70 increase net returns is to sell bunch Of
Gamers
The high-class hog and the hfgh-class cow each
in its own field, has equal in efficiency in
ing raw products into human food, but until we
realize the wide difference in efficiency between
the scrub COW producing 1900 pounds of milk
and the animal yielding 1000 pounds of milk or
between the razorback hog and the hog that
converts corn into pork rapidly and economically,
not in position to make the most of this
fact.
So the farmer who seeks to increase his bust
ness by going into live stock enterprises will
make a grave mistake unless he pays strict atten-
ton to the vital question OF quality of stock 1t
is not necessary to begin with expensive regis
tered animals, for good grade stock will serve.
but it is essential that great be exercised in
selecting the individual animals that are to serve
as the foundation Of the herd flock. When
such care is taken, however. there is no safer way
for the farmer to increase the size of his business
than by intensive production of live stock.

RenIant Your Lost Teeth.

When ones front teeth are knocked
out there is no need to leave them on
the floor. for they can be reinserted
by n good dentist.
DR.. Fl. II. Savery tells in the Lam
Get IondOn). of two cases. in each
Of which several teeth were dislO-
Gated from their sockets. In one case
the teeth were placed in salt water
while the dentist carefully washed
out the sockets. Then they were
reinserted, a stitch or two taken
in the gums and the jaws were ban
daged shut so that the teeth bit on
a pad of lint. In the other case the
teeth still hung to the gums. so the
sockets were cleaned out without de-
taching the teeth. In both cases the
teeth became solidly fixed and the
patients could use them for normal
biting in a few months after the acct
dent.

truck driver that had been knocked
out in a collision. The man had

be inaugurated to combat the lice and relieve the
animals. Lice show animals usually in the late

busy themselves when the life and thrift Of the
