Hairs VIII Vaanish
After This Treatment
lrnilot Helnsl

You can keep your arms, neck or
face free from hair or fuzz by the
occasional use of plain delatone and
in using it you need have no fear
OF marring or injuring the skin. A
thick paste is made by mixing some
of the powdered delatone with
water. Then spread on the hairs
and after 2 or 3 minutes rub off,
wash the skin and all traces of hair
have vanished. Be careful, how
ever, TO get real delatone.

SELECTION OF DAIRY BULLS
tors-Conformation Of Hind
Quarters Good Index.

AS large number Of cows will be
bred during the winter months, many
farmers will be interested at this
time In the purchase OF herd SIRE
Unfortunately, there seems to be
sort Of prejudice against the mature
bull. No sooner has he attained an
age sufficient to demonstrate his value
as a sire, than he Is handed over to
the butcher and his place Is taken by
q young animal Of unknown quality.
There are several good reasons why
this practice should not be followed.
In the first place the progeny is apt
to lack vigor. Further a frequent
changing Of sires Is likely to produce
a lack Of uniformity in type and dis
tinctive peculiarities that should char
acterIze the good dairy herd. Against
this, It Is sometimes urged that old
bulls become vicious and hard to
handle. Doubtless. there are occasional
grounds for this objection. In most
cases, however, this might be over
come by allowing the animal plenty
Of exercise.

Horticultural
Hints
SPRAYING SMALLER ORCHARD
is Most Satisfactory In End
Avoid Leather Valves.

An orchard of % trees that Is found
on the average farm should have at
tention just as much as the orchard of
20 acres 1t will not take the same
equipment or as expensive an equip
ment for the smaller orchard and there
is no need for big investment.
Experience shows that when buy
ing pump the simplest one that can
be found Is the most satisfactory in
the end. Since the lime-sulphur mix
ture Is what Is used more than any
other this is important, as the lime
sulphur mixture will corrode and eat
out most anything except brass. 1t
can be used In a pump with cast-iron
part or two, but the small scales that
come off continually plug up the noz-
zles and 1t does not pay to bother with
II.
Another point Is to get pump that
Is low, one that does not stick out of
the barrel over eight inches. This Is
important when it comes to driving un-
der the trees. A high pump and the
necessary high handle will catch and
bother a great deal. There Is no rea-
son why the air chamber and most of
the working parts shouldn't be right
In the barrel and out of the way.
A pump should be made to come out
Of the barrel easily as any of them
ought to be thoroughly cleaned after
using.
A long hose is worth while for q
farmers pump. The usual length that
comes on an outfit Is around fifteen
feet. That seems quite lot but if 1t
can be twice that or even fifty feet
you will always be glad you have 1t.
Many trees around the average farm
are exceedingly hard to reach In the
tops because they are left high pur-
posely for shade or looks or both. With
long hose the sprayer can get on
long ladder and carry the hose and
nozzles up in the tree as far as he
wishes without any particular bother.
These trees that are wanted for shade
are mighty valuable and unless they
are reached in the top they are apt
to become infected with scale and have
to be cut.
To save time In making a separate
rack for this spraying work just use
a regular wagon box with two top
boxes. Across the top Of this place

AVERAGE VALUE OF HEIFERS
Those Sired by Purebred Bull Worth
Considerably More Than Those
by Inferior Sires.

The heifers sired by purebred
dairy bull are worth considerably
more than those sired by grade or
scrub bull. Some definite figures on
this subject have been obtained by
the University of Illinois In a dairy
survey made on SIT farms In 1912.
It was found that the average cash
value of all the heifers sired by a
purebred bull was SAL, while those
sired by grade bull was $50, and
those sired by a scrub bull only $50.
On the other hand. the average value
Of the purebred bulls used was $S2
and the average value of the scrub
and grade bulls was SAB.
The increased value Of only four
heIfers sired by purebred bull paid
the difference In value Of scrub bull
and purebred bull.-E. M, Clark.

FORMULA FOR GRATING WAX
Melt Together Until thoroughly Mixed
Resin, TaIlow and Beeswax-
Pull II Like Candy.

An excellent formula for making
grating wax Is as follows:
Melt together until thoroughly mixed
four pounds Of resin, two pounds Of
beeswax and one pound Of tallow, and
then pour it into vessel of cold wa
ter. When the wax has cooled pull
1t like taffy candy until 1t becomes
light and smooth. The hands should
be creased with tallow for handling
the wax.
After the wax has been worked un-
til It is thoroughly mixed and smooth,
it should be shaped into balls and
sticks and kept in place that is al
ways cool. Paraffin may be used In
place of beeswax, as it is just as good
and much cheaper.

PROFIT IN CHESTNUT TREES
Illinois Farmer Makes Money by UtIIix-
ing Piece Of Land Unsuitable
for Cultivation.

Fifteen years ago an Illinois farmer
selected a piece of steep hillside land,
unsuitable for regular cultivation, and
set out a grove of young chestnut trees.
The trees are now giving him as good
an income as some farming land, and
practically without attention. Chestnut
blight, which has destroyed most of
the native chestnut trees in the East.
has not yet done material damage to
chestnut land paintings west of the
natural distribution of the American
chestnut. Blight resistant varieties
are now being developed by the Uni
ted States Department Of Agriculture
and by associations of nut growers.

cows REQUIRE FRESH WATER
Low MIX Flow viii Result II Animals
Are Compelled to Drink From
Polluted Ponds.

Good water should he provided at
all times. Cows should not be forced
to drink stale and polluted water from
ponds and marshes. When this is the
case their demands are not supplied
and q low milk flow will be the result.
according to Il. w. Clark of the Colo
RADIO Agriculture college.
Eighty-seven per cent Of milk is
water and n cow giving FIVE gallons OF
milk day would require about thir-
ty-five pounds Of water for II alone.
besides q larger amount for the other

The residents of Mahanoy City

During the month Of June, in 1919,
these same warehouses increased
their holdings by 45.5OO,OOO pounds
and during July by 27,OOO.OOO pounds,
and their total holdings on August
were 95,200,000 pounds. The total

AS 160 warehouses have sufficient

 undefeated Warrior High school team
 to the tune of 5 to 21 score. The E.. B. B. Stepped out of their class in this contest, but this did not hinder their
 scoring ability.
 In the first few minutes of play. it looked like, a walk-away for the Warrior
 boys, but the Employed Boys woke up and exhibited their latent shooting abii- ity. The latter part of the first half they started 'plunking them in from all
 angles, and overcoming point lead. the first period ended with the score IS to 15 in their favor. The second half was all F. B. B., with the Warriors showing flashes of form. Their teamwork was good, but the guarding of Moseley and Young was too much for them. Anderson, for the Work ing Boys, played an excellent game against his much taller opponent and showed excellent form in looping them into the net. Cole, the little captain, sprained his thumb in the first half ana
 had to retire from the game. McRoberts, the flashy forward. showed great eye for the basket and played all over the court.
 | The Warrior tribe had excellent team work, but F. Creel was the only one l that showed much at hitting the loops, ] and he was covered all the time by Moseley B. Creel, at center, played
