After Ten Years

AN ENGAGEMENT
CHAPTER rs

Paul went to his office in state of
fury. That day, still in his capacity of
delivering bonds, he was given a par
ticularly important set of paper to de-
liver to Mr.. Midsey's office. They
were to have Mr.. Midsey's own re-
ceipt, so Paul saw his friend again.
"You look like a thundercloud, .
that gentleman remarked. Your
mother evidently doesn't care for your
mid-evening excursions" Paul grin
ned and admitted she didn't.
"A girl?" hazerded Mr. lindsey.
Paul nodded

well, I'm sorry"
so am |. She'll raise the roof,
Paul answered slangily.
'In which case" continued Mr. Mid
sey, handing him a signed receipt and
dropping several hundred thousand
dollars worth of bonds casually into
a drawer" In which case l suppose
you'll have to provide a new roof"
''At SIS per week" Paul answered
And they both laughed and he left
He didn't care who knew now. Mr.
Midsey's voice came TO him as he

Among the many betternents in the piano
which modern science and efficiency have
brought forth, one recent invention stands out
conspicuously. This is the Junior Unfolding
Two-Levei Pedal-the most vital advance in
more than fifty years. 1t is simple device,
but revolutionary in its effects. For the first
time, it makes it possible for a small child
to play with expression! Great pianists and

corn flower, either for use In garden
plots or around shrubbery. 1t grows
about 18 iches high, has white. pink
and blue blossoms, and can be used ex-
tensively for cut flowers.
Seats Reserved for Farmers
Our farmer readers are advised that
a front seat section in the Billy Sun
day tabernacle is to be reserved for
farmers and farm families on Friday
night, May IL. This will insure them
desirable seats and it is expected that
the attendance from the rural dis
tricts will be large and seats will be
reserved accordingly.
May Deliveries Lower Prices
The effect of heavy May deliveries
was shown in the range of that option
at Chicago last week, the closing on
Saturday being at about the lowest
prices of the week. May wheat ranged
i from a high of 1.46 on Wednesday
down to $780, at the low point on
Saturday, a break of almost ten cents
in four days The July range was ex-
actly six cents, with top of $1.29A.

elastic policy on the part of the fed

tribute their marketing over a longe1
period.
Pay OFF With Potatoes
Twenty acres of potato land in New
York state changed hands recently anC
the mortgage given by the purchaser
specifies that payment shall be made
in potatoes. In October of. this yea
the farmer is to deliver to the holder
Of the mortgage $50 bushels of pota
toes; in 1923, 325 bushels; In 1924 alsC
325 bushels and in 1925, 800 bushels
thus closing the transaction.
This is fair enough, as the man whC
is farming potato land can more &C
curately gauge what he can afford t

pay In bushels of potatoes than he can
in terms of dollars, This mortgage is
on record; 1t says nothing whatever as
to the value of the potatoes, in any
year, the holder of the mortgage TAX

failure to deliver the potatoes the
farmer is bound to furnish the cash
equivalent, according to the market
price at that time.
About Remade Milk
The term "remade" as applied to
milk will come rs a surprise to the
everyday farmer who will maintain
that milk in its natural state as 1t
leaves the farm needs no ''remaking,
and which is correct. But the depart
ment of agriculture tells us that there
| is whole lot of this remade milk on
the market now and its compromising
is becoming more common. The state
ment from Washington reads:
THE increased use of remade milk
and cream-that is, milk and cream
made from powdered or condensed
milk and sweet-creambutter- made
necessary some method by which they
may be distinguished from the natural
! products. Such a test has been de
vised by chemists Of the department OF
agriculture, and it is now possible tC
detect as little as 10 per cent of re
made milk in a mixture with natural
pasteurized milk. If milk powder has
been used in making the mixture, the
sAnount that can be detected will de
pend on the degree of heat used in its
manufacture.
"Remade milk and cream are whole
some foods If made properly from good
natural milk. but should be sold fol
what they are, and this test makes Il
possible for food officials to determine
whether or not the consumer is being
deceived"
Something to Think About

comments on the proposed new tariff
about which he seems bit dubious. HI

something to think about and the1

SAYINGS IN HANDLING

AT BETHEL MEETING

BETHEL Ind, May "a reduction
in number of men employed in hand
ling livestock coupled with smaller
salaries paid to those who are en-
ployed, are two sources of savings
mentioned by w H. Settle in his dis
cussion of cooperative livestock mar
keting at the farmers federation meet
ing In Bethel Monday night.
While there were 100 men hand
ling the work at the st. Louis stock
yards under the old system Mr..
Settle said, "the new cooperative firm

Urges Cooperative Marketing
The speaker offered the cooperative
marketing of stock as one of the ssolu.
tions In the problems facing the
farmer, which make it necessary for
him to improve his income through
elimination of waste in selling. Farm
production has improved immensely
and has a very high state of develop
ment, but selling has continued to fol
low the old methods, with the conse
quence that marketing methods for
farm products in this country are anti
quated and far behind those of al
other civilized countries.

The ladies in our farm homes who
love flowers and are found OF potter
ing among the blooms in their gardens
will appreciate the following hints, and
especially SO should they happen to
have unoccupied space where still
more flowers can be effectively used
to beautify their home surroundings.
Women are quick to appreciate the
new varieties in flowers and colorings.
Many women favor the ANIMALS, be-
cause a new generation is born every
year and selections may be made in
seed, often of new varieties.
In fact, many new varieties have
been developed in the past few years,
among which is the colossal Zinnia, a
very snowy flower which may be sown
in the open right, now. 1t will begin
blooming in July and continue until
/ frost The blossoms of the Zinnia range
crimson, including yellow, salmon, pink
| in color from a creamy white to deep
and violet 1t is common to see bios
plants up to three feet high, showing
SONS four inches in diameter and
blaze of color all summer long. This
new zinnia comes from California and

drought.
