UNCLE wIGGInY's CUsTARD
By Howard B. CARTS

"What are you going to do to-
day. Uncle Wiggily?" asked Nurse
Jane Fuzzy Wuzzy one morning,
as she saw the bunny rabbit gen.
tleman hopping down the front
walk with Ratchet over his
shoulder. Are you going to cut
Christmas tree?"
at is a bit early for that" re-
piled Mr.. Longears. II am going
to cut some wood SO we may hava
warm fires in the bungalow when
tbs north wind blows the snow
That's very good Of YOU" went
on the muskrat lady. I'm glad
you're going to be out of the house,
as I'm going to do some sweeping,
baking, sewing, making Of beds
and the like of that today"
"Fine!" laughed Mr.. Longears.
"We'll both be busy"
Out hoped Mr.. Longears to the
woodpile and there he began to
chop the sticks into short lengths
so they would burn easily. Some
of the. sticks were small enough
so that he could easily gnaw
through them with his strong
teeth. On others he had to use
the Ratchet
Meanwhile Nurse Jane was busy
inside the hollow stump bungalow
She beat the eggs, not because
they were bad, but because she
wanted them frothy and foamy to
go into cake.
Then Nurse Jane swept, while
things were baking in the oven.

and after the sweeping she made
the beds.
Chip! Chop! Chap" went Tn
Gle Wiggily's Ratchet, and soon the
rabbit gentleman, having chopped
quite lot of wood, sat down on
log to rest.
"Oh, l say, Nurse Janet" he
called to the muskrat lady house,
keeper after a while, "have you
any custard?"
ooh, yes. plenty" answered Miss
Fuzzy Wuzzy.
We'll, please bring me out a
cupful," begged the rabbit gentle .
man, and the muskrat lady said
she would.
When she went out little later
Uncle Wiggily had finished taking
rest and was again chopping
wood
where shall I put it," called
Nurse Jane.
what, the custard? Oh, set 1t
down on the log. I'll be there In
minute after it cools," spoke the
bunny.
well, De CdIcluip lOT IL very
hot" said Nurse Jane, very hot"
"I'll be careful" answered Mr..
Longears.
The rabbit gentleman was so
anxious to get a great deal of wood
cut for the winter that 1t was some
time later before he thought Of the
custard he had asked for. And
then, when 1t was getting late in
the afternoon, he Strengthened up,
laid down his Ratchet and said:
Now I'll have my custard."
He walked over to the log on
which was a cup, and inside the
cup was something yellow.
IF there Is one thing I like bet
ter than another 1t is custard,"
spoke Uncle Wiggily in low voice.
'It's the best thing when you're
tired"
Next to nibbled ears!" spoke a
strange voice behind the log.
II beg your pardon, what was
that remark" asked the bunny.
II said custard might be good,

and we've all grown so all-fired

Where love was wont to reign
But oh my heart is heavy
A-burning with its pain
Must / always climb these stairs
In vain?
Down the stairs, down the stairs
AS lightly as boy;

Past the doors that bar the way,
oh. have found one open
Where gladly I would stay

The Manhattan post is composed Of

KEEP HORSES IN CONDITION
Farmer Makes a Mistake in Not u.,no
Animals OF and On During
the Winter. III

It Is q shame to take a good horse
from pasture and put him into the
collar before a plow, mower, reaper,
or other heavy draft implements with
out his having been hardened to Il
first. In the main this is the reason
for so many sore necks, added Of
course to the poor-f1tting collars.
Horses that are to do the heavy work
should be used off and on all winter
so as to keep their shoulders in shape
and the skin toughened. At any rate
they should be used before a wagon,
manure spreader, or at some light work
for some time before hard work starts.
BE sure the, collar fits. No collar pad
is needed II the collar fits. Especially
Is this true with colts.

MARKET REPORTS AID TRADE
Government Helps Farmer BY diving
Out information Regarding Sup
plies and Prices.

prepared BY the United States Department
OF Agriculture.)
In a strict sense there can be no
such thing as "fair trade when
either party has the advantage of
vastly superior information. Up to the
time the bureau Of markets and crop
estimates Of the United States De-
partment Of Agriculture was estab-
lished most transactions In the mar
keting Of farm products were, In this
sense, unfair. This was due to the
fact that the buying side almost in
tariably had vastly better informa.
tion regarding supplies, both available
and prospective, future production,
prices current throughout the. country,
and probable movements Of the prod
ucts. IL
Placing the farmer on the same
footing with the buyer, SO far as in
formation is concerned, so that the
element Of chance applies equally to
both, is the aim Of the Department of
Agriculture. For this, 1t gathers ev-
cry available scrap Of information re-
lating to supplies. current quotations,
and other fundamental conditions in
duencing markets, arranges the infor-
nation in readable form, and makes
It readily available to everyone having
use of 1t.
Before the department took up this
work, the farmer was not wholly with
out market reports. Newspapers, trade
journals, telegraph companies, and
many other organizations, as well as
individuals, distributed In the rura!
districts reports that purported to be
market information. Unfortunately
for the farmer, however, many Of these
reports originated with buyers Of farm
produce, or from sources controlled or
dominated by such interests. Under
these circumstances it was but natural
that they redounded to the advantage
Of the buyer and almost invariably
worked to the financial handicap Of
the farmer and producer.
The departments reports are now
being made use Of by practically oil
classes Of people-farmers, commission
merchants, boards Of trade, brokers'
