ICE FOR DAIRY AND FAMILY
Amount Necessary Depends Greatly
on Number Of Cows MIXED and
Ways Of Handling.

The quantity Of ice needed for a
dairy farm with 10 or more cows de-
pends on Its location, number of cows
MIXED, and methods Of handling the
product. In the Northern States, the
United States Department of Agricul
ture has found that. with a moderately
good ice house, where the shrinkage
from melting Is not more than 80 per
cent, half a ton Of ice to each COW is
sufficient to cool the cream and hold
it at low temperature for delivery
two or three times a week. Suitable
cooling tanks, however, are necessary
under this estimate.
The half-tOn-per-cow estimate for
ice to be stored allows for a reasonable
waste and also for ordinary house
hold USE II whole milk Is to be cooled
the quantity OF ice stored must be in
creased to ~ tons per COW in he
North. To meet the needs of the aver
age family on a general farm 1t will
be necessary to store about five tons.

EVEN CAREFUL
CALOMEL USERS
ARE SALIvATED
Next Dose of TreaCherouS Drug
May Start Misery
for You.

Calomel is dangerous 1t may salivate
you and make you suffer fearfully from
soreness of gums, tenderness of jaws
and teeth, swollen tongue and exces-
sive saliva dribbling from the mouth.
Don't trust caIomel 1t is mercury ;
quicksilver.
If you feel bilious headachy, consti-
pated and all knocked out, just go to
your druggist and get bottle of Dod-
sons Liver Tone for few cents which
Is harmless vegetable substitute for
dangerous calomel. Take spoonful
and if it doesn't start your liver and
straighten you up better and quicker
than nasty calomel and without making
you sick, you just go back and get your
money.
If you take calomel today you'll be
sick and nauseated tomorrow besides,
it may salivate you, while If you take
DodSOn's Liver Tone you will wake up
feeling great No salts necessary. Give
it to the children because 1t Is per-
fectly harmless and can not salivate.

The Wife's Fault.

Faults on both sides may not neces-
sarily mean an even balance. Mar
riage is usually followed sooner or
later by some slackening on either side
Of efforts to propitiate. He grows less
lover-like; she, perchance, wrapt in
housewifery, fashions, ETC., becomes
less companionable, while yet keenly
resenting his fancied growing indif-
ference; then there are the "in-laws"
too often widening the rift, or maybe
baby-you know It's mostly so-comes
and hubby's nose is put out of joint
to an unwarrantable extent, and, alas |
the link that should bind accomplishes
the reverse. The wife often is the
worst offender In some ways.-MOn-

EXPLAINING LACK CT DETAIL
Youthful Artist Had Excellent Reason
for Leaving Out Characters in
Her Illustration.

A primary class in one of the grade
schools was asked to illustrate a
story that had been read to the little
ones by the teacher. The story told
of three children going to a wood in
a goat wagon, and staying until the
sun went down. Most of the pictures
showed the goat with big horns pulling
the wagon containing the children,
and sun going down behind a hill.
One Of the small girls In the class
handed in a picture showing merely
a hill and some grass.
"Why, what does your picture
mean?" inquired the teacher. 'Where
are the goat and the children"
''They have all gone home" replied

Il never beheld so many" said the
cat, blinking. The cat hadn't been lis

been saying. But the dog didn't mind.
The cat simply felt it was the right
thing for him to have, and didn't act
in the least excited over anything
except his catnip which he got for
Christmas.
Yes" continued the dog, "we went
into an elevator, and the man who
ran the elevator shouted out:
"This way to the Toy World. Ex-

Department Of Agriculture, and In a
new bulletin, No. 979 marketing Hay
Through Terminal Markets." federal
officials make suggestions as to how
that may be brought about. Copies of
the bulletin may be obtained upon ap-
plication to the department at Wash
ington.
Loose Methods Of Business.
"While good many unfair meth
ods," says the bulletin, "are at pres
ent practiced by those concerned in
the marketing Of hay it appears that
most Of them are related to loose
methods of business on the part of
various agencies engaged In the
handling of hay. On the basis Of care
full observations made throughout the
hay producing and consuming sections.
and at the principal markets, it is
thought that some improvement In the
methods of marketing hay can be OBJ
tained by observing the following sug-
gestions:
"On the part Of the country shipper:
More care In grading, weighing ana
loading the hay; better forms for use
in confirming sales, tabulating and
stating weights, and for invoicing hay !;
and more care and accuracy in stating
terms Of sale.
'On the part of dealers in terminal
markets: The elimination of the prac-
tice of allowing the state Of the mar
ket to influence the fulfillment Of con-
tracts with country shippers; more
uniform methods Of handling In ter
minal markets; better weighing meth
DDS and more consideration of contents
Of weight certificates; more uniform
grading practices; grading inbound
and outbound hay on the same basis
when hay is bought and sold on grade
designations; and the elimination OF
the practice Of boosting grades on out
shipments.
