 If the groundhog sees it's shadow February 2 we're in for another six
 weeks of cold weather.
 Nobody knows why.
 But everybody knows there isn't q
 bigger liar on earth than that same groundhog.
 Sometimes, however. the groundhog tells the truth.
 And sometimes the weather bureau does.
 If you're a bit wobbiy on the super stition thing, and desire an early spring, here are two methods of pre-
 venting the groundhog from glimpsing his shadow that day: In 1881 a Kansas man, having a
 nice field of wheat in prospect and longing nightly for the end of win ter. set screens near the holes of groundhogs wherever he found them. Mir. Groundhog came out, the screens prevented him from seeing his shadow. And spring was assured. This is a simple idea, not expensive, and about as sane as this one: In 1894 an Illinois man, also a farm CT, and likewise interested in an early spring, conceived the hunch of closing all groundhog holes on the night of That kept the inmates from coming out for the air. and from getting frightened at their shadows. Squire Abner Harpington has thought out this scheme to get the better of the groundho8s On February buy a railroad ticket to some place in the south, or Califor- mia, and leave that evening. This will guarantee you spell of spring weath- :

CT in February and March regardless of the groundhog's prediction.

 Tom. asked the neighbor .how far will a gallon of wood alcohol take me-"
 If it doesn't land you in the morgue." replied MT. Duff "it will d least get you to the hospital
 This is to notify all people that Will : liam Davidson, Westchester (N. Y). county official, voluntarily reduced his own salary, so they could raise the wages of lower-pay employees.
 More remarkable than a groundhog that can dope out the weather condi tions six weeks ahead is the duck with four legs, owned by a western duel. farmer When it swims the double supply of legs makes for faster speed. On land the duck a.ternates, walking on either of it's sets of legs This doubtless conserves one set while the other works.

 Whale milk is richer and more palat- able than cows milk the captain as serts. And he ought to know. for ne has been whaling on the Pacific for year and years. during which time he often has frightened his breakfast cof- fee with whale milk.
 Of course it is no easy job milking a whale. Neither is milking COW un less you know how.
 Being better seaman than dairy expert the captain is a trifle wobbly when it comes to planning the whale dairy. But we are assured 1t will be easy. only two things are necessary. They are:
 l. Capture the whale alive.
 2. Make her stand still while you're milking.
 If you are figuring on starting your own whale dairy probably you had bet ter capture your whales while they're young, so you can tame them. And, of course. you needn't plan dairy barn such as you have seen on the farm. The whale dairy will be largely water.
 With oceans for pasture the milkman cannot complain of the high cost of feed. Neither will it be necessary for him to hire a man to carry water from the we'll to the milk can, for there'll be plenty of water all around him.
 The salary of the city judge of Cana sence of drunks and little to do is the reason.
