ATTENTION TO STALL FLOORS
Should Be Spread to Protect I'd
ders OF the Cows.

When planning n new dairy barn,
the stall floors should be given care
ful attention. A good floor should be
sanitary and permanent and a non-con-
ductor Of heat. The drains and gl-
leys may be concrete. but for stall
floors, cement is not wholly desirable.
When used, It must be covered with
sufficient bedding TO prevent the nd
ders of the cows from coming in on
tact with It.
Some form Of wood block is most
satisfactory for this purpose.

The "Tercentenary of Thanksgiving"
The Pilgrims, as every good American knows,
landed at Plymouth in December. Their first
winter was a hard one. At one time only Brew
ster, Standish and five other hardy ones were
well enough to get about. Hardships, hunger
and sickness took heavy toll from the little
koiony.
But In the spring and summer that followed,
their fortunes improved, and by autumn they had
cleared twenty-six acres and made II ready for
cultivation. This industry, too, had been re-
warded by a bounteous harvest. Now food and
yuel sufficient for the needs of the winter were
laid in. Then Governor Bradford ordered a
Thanksgiving, the first in America.
With a little help from the imagination 1t is
easy to reconstruct the scene in part. The his
torians have recorded that the first Thanksgiving
Day was bright and fair. OF course there was the
same riot of autumn color that glori6es New
England falls today. Red. gold and bronze leaves
hung on the trees and carpeted the ground. Purple
wild grapes hung from the tree-cllmbing vines.
Red cranberrles were thick on the marshes. Blue
gentians starred the meadows, and the uplands
were bright with goldenrod. Over all lay the haze
OF the Indian summer" and, as the browning

CHECK FALLING PRICES.
Some Factors That Keep Up Costs
Are Cited.

CHICAGO, June 2s.-Declaring that
some students Of finance had predict,
ed that the peak of high prices had
been reached and that retail costs
had started downward, a review by
Armour & Co. maintains that the
extent to which that is true cannot
be estimated in any accurate measure
at this time"
"The reduction in the cost Of tex
tiles. the huge cancellations received
by the furniture business and other
indications of falling prices have
been offset to some degree by the In,
creasing cost of raw materials and
of transportation as well as by cur
tailment of production. particularly IN
the textile Industry" the review
said. ..
It was declared that market con,
ditions in the packing industry had
shown a considerable improvement,
but that the live stock industry had
been and would continue to be a
victim of the eountry's intricate finari-
cial situation. The country faced a
meat shortage unless stock rs.isers
could obtain money to re-stock their
ranches, the review said.
