My Hear and My Husband
By ADELE GARRISON
By ADELE GARRISON

Before I answered LilIian's ques-
ton, I walked up 20 her. took her
By the shoulders and held her al
arms length away from me.
You wonderful woman" I said
fervenJly. Who else in the world
could have gotten me out Of that
cross-qu with no one sus-
pecting your real reason for taking
me away"
You did clever stunt in signal

happen 20 ask YOU" she retorted.
and IL struck me that you didn't

Before ] could get the brown pa
per package from the pocket Of my
motor coat. she had pulled two low
chairs close together. put "a towel
over the keyhole and was taking
down her knitting bag from the
nail where il hung.
Nothing like setting the stage "
she said dryly. Remember. you're

afraid / shall have 10 spoil il. for I
want you 10 look at these things. 7
never could explain them to you
orally"
Easiest thing 7 do" she said
lightly. Just a minute till I finish
this setting up"
She finished the thing she wished

She glanced up at me shrewdly
and laughed outright.

optng practicable methods of holding
such products for manufacturing pur-

1t is pointed out that the preserva-
ton of fruits by freezing is cheaper
tha ncanning them, especially when tin
containers are scarce aud costly as at
present; and that the frozen fruit,
held at the. proper temperatures, has
a more natural flavor than canned or
dried fruit. The eXperimcnters found
fruit preserved by freezing to be
fully as satisfactory as fresh fruit
and superior to canned or dried fruit

bcrts, and for cooking into pies, pre-
serves, jellies, and other desserts and

from the proper State official.

Data gathered from the various
State and bureau field workers, it is
said, clearly Indicate that the tuber-
culosis test can be shortened two hours
without interfering with it's efficiency.
A modification, therefore, was made
permitting the registering of temper
aturcs to be discontinued at the eigh-
tcenth hour after the injection of tu-
berculin instead of the twentieth hour.
1t was found advisable, too, to re-
move the time limit in which pure
bred tuberculous cattle may be re-
turned to their original owners. The
present regulations require them to be
reshipped within four months. The
redrafted regulation places heifers on
the same basis as all other female
cattle subject to the test.

MODIFIES CATTLE
TUBERCULOSIS RESTRICTIONS

Notifications in the restrictions on
interstate shipment of cattle imposed
for the prevention Of the spread of
cattle tuberculosis are announced by
the Bureau of Animal Industry of the
United States Department of Agri-
culture. In order that livestock
shippers may more readily understand
the restrictions, the entire regulation
has been redrafted and the language
clarified.
One of the notifications is for the
aid of emigrants who live in sparsely
settled sections of the country where
it would be very expensive to have
their cattle tested before moving them
to another State. Such shipmnts US
ually do not pass through public
stockyards, and veterinarians are not
always available in such sections. The
new regulation, therefore, permits
emigrant shipments to be tested en-
route or at the destination. Permis-
sion to do so, however, must first be
received from the bureau inspector in
charge of tuberculosis eradication
work in the State of destination, or

FARMERS FIND
cow TESTING PAYS

Coos County, N. H., has very sue
cessful cow-testing association. A re-
port from the district regarding the
dollars. and d-cents value of the associa-
ton says: "Many times the testers
salary is saved each month"
One farmer in the Coos County as
socat.on reports a yearly saving Of
$52E in the feed bills alone. Another
with eight cows claims net gain of
$3.50 year fro tmhe work of the as
sociation, and local cattle dealer says
that the tests add $40 per head to the
value of good cows.
A farmer near Lancaster offered to
sell one of his cows for $75 before
testing her. After the test, however,
she was not for sale, because during
the 10 months she made $40 more net
profit than his IL lowest-producing
cows combined. These and other
figures from the Coos County associa-
tion show that cow testing may be
made to pay big returns. Its edu-
cational value is also great.
Contrasting work is growing rapid
ly, but it still has room for growth.

DEMOCRATS BRING UP TAX
ISSUE AT FORDS MEETING

BY Special Correspondent.
FORDS, Sept. 25i-A meeting OF
the Democrats of this place was
held last night at Patrick's Hall on
sand Hill road. 1t was generally
discussed as to who was going to
be the candidate for the Office OF
committeeman, but 1t was finally
decided that they would withhold
all names for the present, and IT
was the impression that a dark
horse" was going to appear in the
near future. No n was mentioned
for the office and it could not be
learned who would be the likely
man.
The question of taxes vas freely
discussed at the meeting, and 1t was
said that at present the rate for this
vicinity was out of the question and
still going higher. 1t was agreed
that improvements were necessary
to a community, but that so much
should be done at a time. 1t was
pointed out that the present rate of
Improvement would soon force the
tax bills so high hat it would take
the value of the house Or lot to pay
he bill. II was the opinion of those
at the meeting that the time had
come when a change in representa-
tives was necessary. and that all
the force that the Democrats could
get together would be used TO put
