BROUGHT STRIKERS TO TERMS
African Explorer Put His Wits 10 B-sr
In Controversy With o1streP-
erous Padd.ers.

Although the plan Is not capable of
wide application, the tale Of a strike
IN central Africa. told by an exploring
member Of the English Royal Anthro-
biological Institute. is pleasant reading
for the promptness with which the
matter was settled. The explorer was
journeying by water and coming to
an African village where he needed
new relay of paddlers he found that
an the available paddlers had struck"
not for higher wages but against any
padding whatever. The expedition
was held up, and the men who refused
to paddle stood apart and evidently
considered the plight Of the explorer
a matter of considerable unsympa-
thetic amusement. The explorer. how
ever, thought he saw way out. He
asked some of the women Of the VII
lage to come aboard his boat and sell
him food; and as soon as several Of
them were on board he unfastened the
hawser, the boat swung out from the
shore and began to travel with the
current. Ashore and afOat anxiety
followed. Presently the men who had
refused to paddle the explorer were
padding their own little canoes in
pursuit and volubly demanding the
return TO their womenfolk. The larger
craft, and presumably the armament,
of the traveller gave him an advantage.
He was able to issue an ultimatum.
No women, he said in effect without
paddlers, but one woman for every

Bones for the Tubereulous.

Bones as a diet for human beings
may sound rather strange but in cases
of tuberculosis Doctor Berthier OF
Paris has found them highly beneficial.
It is the spongy or cancellous parts OF
veal bones that he uses. These are
about one-half osseln, which is laden
with phosphates and carbonates Of
lime. these salts being much needed
by tuberculous persons, who always
suffer from decalcifcatiOn.
Doctor Berthler describes In bull
letin Of the Academic de Medicine
how he prepares the bones. He Sc
lects the short, spongy bones, splits
them, boils them with vegetables, salt
and a piece of meat for almost six
hours and then lets his patients pick
out with their forks as much OF the
soft bony matter as they can.
Another benefit derived from the
bones is that they help to prevent de-
cay of the teeth.

FEEDING CORN OR M0LkSSES
Both Are Rich In Producing Ele-
ments and Relatively Low
In Protein.

Corn and molasses are about the
same in composition. Both are rich
in carbohydrates, or heat-producing
elements and relatively low In protein.
Molasses is not quite as valuable as
feed us corn, but when the price of
corn is $35 or $40 per ton, as it is in
some places, and molasses $25 or $50,
the latter is cheaper feed. The dairy
COW may be fed three to five pounds of
mOlasses daily. More than this tends
to lessen the 'dlgestibillty Of the other
feeds In the ration. Molasses is very
palatable to the animal and will al
ways produce sleek coat when fed.
II can often be used to make unpala-
table roughage most toothsome There
Is difficulty always in feeding mo-
lssses. 1t may be put in the drinking
water or diluted slightly with water
and sprinkled on the rOughage or the
grain portion Of the ration.

Practical reports from the various
cow-testlng associations throughout
the country show the value of this
work Of separating the ehaff from the
wheat In cowdom. The modern cow
testing association is the best scientific
agency for isOlating and eradlcatlng
the drones from the herd, while II also
Is of value as a detector Of the highest

the cows appetite. digestion and pro
duction are the economical and logical
methods Of increasing the net earn
ings Of the dairy.
One Ohio cOw-testing association,
whose members owned 1856 cows last
year. reports an association average Of
345 pounds of butterfat per cow and
that the present production of the
cows is 72 pounds Of fat more apiece
than It was at the first of the year.
Another cow-testIng association an
nounces that Its expenses during the
last five years have been below $4,000
while the value Of the increased pro-
ductlon during only the last year has
aggregated over $1,000. This remark
able increase In income is not abnor-
NAL for this particular association as
during each year the production of the
cows has improved and the returns
greatly increased. Members from an
other association report that all other
COW owners are feeding the individual
animals according to the capacity and

WATCH WINTER FEED OF cow
Very Easy to Have Grain Ration So
High That Il Won't Pay for
Itself In Milk.

The feeding Of cows for milk will
need to be watched more closely than
ever this winter. With cows such as
they run, 1t is very easy to have the
grain ration so high that 1t will not
pay for itself In milk or cream. A
very successful eastern dairyman
feeds his cows only alfalfa hay and
slage with very little oilmeal, limit
ing the silage to 25 pounds day to
the COW and 20 pounds a day to the
helfer, thus getting them to eat more
alfalfa. He admits that dairymen
feeding grain will beat him in amount
Of milk produced, but says that his
business Is turned at greater profit
Doubtless true-and he is also putting
all his cows into advanced registry.

If you happen to have a corner in
your garden which is especially dry
and sandy and open to the hot sun
all day, scatter portulaca seeds all
over it and wait for the transforma-

ditions which would be the death Of
