WITH THE FARMERS.
$500 Holstein Sire.
= : = = : =

At the Rector & Bailie auction of
pure-bred Holsteins last Thursday,
the five year old herd sire. King Sc
gis Pontiac Gem Hengerveld, sold for
$4,000. William Allen & Son, Liv-
ingston, were the purchasers. The
only animal in the sale to bring more
money was five year old COW that
brought $4,000. The SO head of pure
breds sold brought SIC. $4,000 For
tunately for the dairy interests of the
county nearly all the animals sold
were purchased by residents of this
county. We are getting constant in
quiries from outside sources for car
load lots of dairy cows and heifers.
We shall not be able to supply these
demands until more people become in
terested in the production of good
dairy stock
Farmer Proves the Value of Pure.
bred Bull
A South Dakota farmer received
$52.25 more for steers from pure
bred bull than for steers from a scrub
bull in the Omaha market He shipp-
ed five steers from common grade
cows of equal merit The two steers
sired by a scrub bull brought $3.50
each, while the three steers from
pure-bred bull brought S147.SO each.
The steers received practically the
same care. Fewer and better cattle
are more profitable than large num-
Der OF scrub animals.
Commercial Fertilizers.
Farmers in the vicinity of Platte
vile, Lancaster, Montfort, Fenni-
more and Boscobel who have been us
ing commercial fertilizers for a num-
Der of years are buying additional
quantities for the next seasons use.
If your local dealer does not handle
commercial fertilizer, a few farmers
may easily club together and order a
carload of from Is to 20 tons for their
own use, thus getting wholesale rates
on the same. Better make your ar
rangements for fertilizer early.
Many Tests for tuberculosis.
At the present time, there are near
ly 1000 herds of cattle under Federal
State supervision for tuberculosis.
Winnebago county stands at the head
OF the list with 112 herds under super
vision. Grant county has Ia herds
that have been federal tested. While
this number is small. it exceeds the
total of all the herds under test in the
four Wisconsin counties that border
Grant. A free test by Federal in
spectors may be arranged for by APP
plying to your County Agent.
Beekeepers Attention!
The Grant County Beekeepers' AS
ISOLATION recently organized now has
a membership of 26. Every member
is planning to employ better methods
and produce more honey the coming
season. A cooperative order of bee
supplies resulted in a substantial saw
ing for the members of the associa-
ton. ANY beekeeper in the county
may become a member of our associa-
ton and save money on all future or
ders for beekeepers' supplies. 1t pays
to order early.

The Ithaca correspondent of THE
Democrat says:
Those rash, reckless fellows, who
were foolish enough to say that they
didn't care d-n for their neighbors.
are now up against conditions where
nearly everyone needs neighbors,
whether they care a d-n for them or
not There has been and is even now
too much of this Don't care a d--n"
spirit. 1t has been fittingly said: "If
you want to know how many enemies
you have, run for office. 1t you want
to learn the number of your friends

We are told of one lady in these
parts who is so overly nice that she
refuses to use the word leg" calling
it a vulgar form of expression. She
uses the word limb" Leghorn, she

She even refuses to use the writer's
pseudonym of "Legit" calling us
"Limbit" By heck, she gets our goat.

FLYCOPS WON CONFIDENCE
OF FENNIMORE GAMBLERS

The story of how detectives Fred
Mundt and John Binnack of the Amer

the confidence of the Fennimore men

SO they became chummy with the
local poker sharks who made the hot
ell rendezvous. The strangers were

did. Enough games followed to evil
dence clearly the nature of the play

nature the house taking it's rake-off

So says friend Of ours named Velvet Joe.
And he just about hits the nail on the head
Velvet is made for men who think there's
no smoke like real tobacco If you are that
sort of man, listen:
Velvet was born in old Kentucky where
more than one good thing comes from. 1t was
raised as carefully as any other Kentucky
thoroughbred. But the real secret Of VclvetS
friendly qualities is its slow natural ageing Il
wooden hogsheads. Ageing in the wood
never hurt anything-and least of all, tobacco.
And SO we say, Velvet is good tobacco
nothing or less. It runs second to
none.

keep you from rolling jirn-dandy cigarette

Such little dinners as these are easy
to serve and are admirably suited tn the

housekeeper will have tho dessert Except

CARE OF SHOES.

Care means more toshoee than il means
to almost any other article OF woman S
apparel. Untidy shoes make the srnartest
costume look dowdy. Dusty shoes make
the most spotlcss costume look dirty
So it behooves the woman who would
be well dressed TO look TO the care of her
shoes.
Good shoe polish is also necessary if
shoes are 10 look well. For thin kid
shoes liquid backing can be used. There
are several pastes or creams now on the
market for black shoes that are worth
trying. They can be used on dull ealfskin
shoes. with good results and are easily
applied.
If new shoes seem TO be n little too big
in the heel, and in rubbing against the
foot cause a blister, try rubbing the in
side of the heel of the shoe with small
piece Of CASTLE soap. Also powder the
Innings Of the shoe.
Patent leather shoes need protection
against sudden changes Of temperature.
Therefore, if the closet where they are kept
is cold, they should be slipped into canton
flannel bags when they are taken off.
When they area taken from their resting
place in the closet they should be warmed
slightly and slowly before they are put
on the foot Rub them with a little
v@seline, applied with a small piece OF
canton flannel, when they seem dull.
Light evening shoes should be kept
covered. They should either be wrapped
in tissue. paper-which is a good deal of
trouble or else kept In bags or boxes.
If you have room and enough old shoe
boxes to accommodate them, this method
Of covering them is good. If your space
is limited muslin bags will be found useful :.
These bags can be hung from the under
side of closet shelf by stout tapes.
