VWAARY GRA!AM BClNNER

"Such beautiful stripes as all my
grandchildren have" said Granddaddy
Striped Ground-Squirrel. "They are
all so slender and so lovely; they all
wear such pretty brown suits with
such bright and gay decorations.
mot only do my grandchildren make
themselves look very fine and hand
some and smart. but they wear these
suits SO as to protect themselves from
all the weasels. skunks and foxes and
coyotes. IT. .a. =
sThese animals would attack the
Striped Ground Squirrels II they could.
But because the Striped Ground
SQUIRRELS wear suits which make them
look like brown earth with its plants,
they are usually protected and safe.
''Of course I don't mean that you
wear suits of the earth with plants
growing upon them. '* ~
mo, indeed, I don't mean that!
1T would not be at all beautiful
for you to wear earth suits with
plants sticking out all over you. But
what I mean is that your suits are OF
the color Of the warm brown earth and
your markings or decorations are OF
the color Of plants.
I'm other words, when you keep
quite still you might be taken for a
part Of the earth and not for little
animal at all. 49,:
"And dear Striped Ground-Squlrrels,
Granddaddy Striped Ground-Squirrel
wants to warn you Of many things.
Though you wear such a safe and
sensible costume or suit, you must be
very careful, for you have lots Of ene-
mics. You must never think only Of
yourselves. That is not brave. That
Is not right. ,G'", >--r

 less, Safe and Sure.

Doctors have found b, experience hat no medicine for colds and infu- ,nza can be depended upon for full eff eectiveness until the liver is made thor >ughly active. That is why the first step in the treatment is the new, nausea less colonel tablets called Calotabs, which are free from the sickening and weakening effects of the old style calo- mel. Doctors also point out the fact that aI' active liver may go long way towards preventing influenza and is one of ths most important factors in en- abling the patient to successfully with stand an attack and ward off pneu- monia.
 One Calotab on the tongue at bed time with a swallow of water-that s nll. No salts, no nausea nor the slight est interference with your eating, pleas ure or work. NexS morning your cold has vanished, your liver is active, your system is purified, and you are feeling fine, with hearty appetite for break fast. Druggists scfl Calotabs only in original sealed packages, price thirty five cents. Your money will be cheer fully refunded ic you do not find them Gghtful.-(Adv.1

TIME TO PURCHASE FEEDERS
Go By-CattIe Are Higher in Spring Than in Fall.

Sim Baxter's right leg was in tenn arnica- soaked bandages. He regarded the injured member with glint of rueful humor and spake thus to a neighbor who had dropped in for chat with the cheerful invalid.
 Bert, tell me somethin. How can a feller tell when a mean white mule named Anarchy is gon' to kick? mean. how can he tell in time to do him any eood?'
 Human knowledge goes no further than to say that white mule is al- ways goin to kick. Is that the an swer? Then let me ask you ques- tion: How do you know whether to buy your feeder steers in the fall or in the spring? Do you make any thing by feeding them in the winter, and will you make more if you let the other feler feed 'em through? They cost more in the spring than in the fall. Is there any way to be certain?'
 Sim admitted that the thing was past his comprehension and confessed that he sometimes did the thing one way and sometimes the other, but that he never knew just how he was com ing out.
 In reality, as to the time to buy stockers or feeders. there is no hard and fast rule. The usual time is in the fall when they must leave the grazing areas and go where feeds have been harvested or stored for cat tie feeding. However, with falling market, which no one can foretell with any degree of certainty, the cattle may not be worth enough more in the spring to pay for the winter feeding. Yet they have been kept largely on feed for which there is no other mar. ket
 Consequently, what Sim and his neighbor should know is how much it costs to keep stockerS through the winter on various rations, how they lose or gain weight, and how tEey gain through the summer as q res :.t of the way they have been w:ntered.

Look Out for Rheumatism
 As Winter Approaches

So many cases of Rheumatism come from a tiny disease germ that infests the blood, that physicians are beginning to realize that this source of the disease is becoming quite prevalent. Of course a dis ease that has its source in the blood cannot be reached by local remedies applied to the surface.
 One remedy that has given splen- did results in the treatment of Rheumatism is S.S.S., the fine old blood remedy that has been sold by

published in department bulletin SID.
 In brief 30 yearling steers were se- lected each year and divided into three lots of ten steers each. When the lots were carefully capitalized. the average weight of the animals was 663 pounds each The steers were on winter ra- tions an average of 130 days, and on pasture an average of 15S days each year.
 The tests proved that an average daily ration of 19.S pounds of silage. five pounds of mixed hay, and 2.5 pounds of wheat straw during the winter would maintain these steers without loss of weight.
 An average daily ration of 221 pounds of corn silage. 4.9 pounds of wheat straw and one pound of cotton seed meal would give each steer an average gain of 62 pounds.
 A daily ration of 1l.9 pounds of mixed hay and II pounds of wheat straw fed throughout the winter will not keep the animal in good condition. This ration was responsible for loss of 30 pounds per steer. Corn Silage gave bet', rG1Ilts than dry rough age alone, and the steers that had silage as rart of their winter ra- ton made greater total gains than those fed on hay and straw

Chicago, Nov. 26.-WHEAT-Easier for
eign markets made for a weak wheat mar
ket at the opening of the Chicago board of
trade today. First prices were. 5sc to lie
lower, December $111H to $11112 and May
81 II to $1.14A.
Trade was light but the initial selling
was general until support for May came
out at $1.14. This checked the decline only
momentariIy, however, as scattered Hquida-
ton continued in December and the market
declined further until strong commission
houses started a recovery by buying May.
At the end of the first hour December
was back to $111s and May S114A.
Toward the close, a decided rally took
place on export estimates of world needs
and seaboard advices that the continent
was in the market for Manitobas. The close
was strong with December Slips to $112H
and May 81. 151a to S1-155s.
CORN-Corn opened 4c to Sc lower with
December at 49c and May at 543sc to 549sc.
Cash houses sold December early in the
season but the prices moved within only
narrow limits
Export demand tended TO steady corn,
but week evening up nullified this.
The close was unsettled with December
1875 a 49c to 49c and May 54$zc. 49,.
OATS-Oats started unchanged to &c
lower, December being 33$sc to 331Ac and
May 3S1ac to 3S5kc. Trade was dull.
VISIONS-Provisions were weaker,
but unusually dull and initial transactions
were too few to establish a range.

attacks on the actions of the confer

The Nichi Nichi asks why Secretary

naval reductions prior to taking up
the matter with the Japanese dele
gates.
I'VE question the appropriateness
of the heads of the British and Ameri-
can delegations comforting on vital
questions privately" said the Nlch1
Nichi. Japan is unwilling to go to
super lengths to reduce armament but
1t is possible Secretary Hughes hopes
to use Great Britain to urge upon
Japan compliance with the American
wishes. We do not believe this to be
true, but if so. it will bring on ter
rible results
Americana British relations are
more amicable than we think. The
compromising attitude of Great
Britain is responsible for Britain
recognizing the claims of ireland for
dominion rule. Great Britain led
other countries in accepting the Wash
ington program for no other reason
than a desire to win American SYM
pathy. Under ordinary circumstances,
Great Britain would not allow America
to interfere in Irish affairs. Britain is
succeeding in her diplomacy to win
America, but she is paying high for
it."
