A number of young Farmingtonians
went to Blomeyer,s Saturday night
for a weiner roast. They left town
about 7:30 on a. hay frame and
reached the pool at $3.50. Although it
was already dark and cool they built
a fire and proceeded to go swimming.
Following the swim they roasted
marshmallows and 'weiners and had a
good time around the camp fire. SO
thoroughly did they enjoy themselves,
in fact, that they did not return to
their homes until almost morning.
Those who went on the, outing were;
Elise Hays, Barbara Caroline Tul-

Registered BuIIs at Beef Prices.

Many farmers failed to grasp a
wonderful opportunity to secure a
registered bull of good breeding at
the sale Saturday. The price secured
for these animals was not what
should be received for sires of such
breeding. The time required for some
farmers to see the advantage of using
a good sire, is deplorably long.
The fact that registered bulls, car
rying great deal of the blood of the
most famous cattle in the U. S., due
to utility, is not an indication that
the raising of such animals is unprof-
liable, but it is an absolute proof that
there are large numbers of farmers
that do not know the value of pure
bred animal at the head of his herd.
When young bulls carrying a great
deal of the blood of the Hood Farm
herd at Lowell, Mass, which is the
highest producing herd of Jerseys in
the U. s., and when a young bull, car
rying great deal of the blood of the
famous King Ormsby Beets, which
breeding is almost at the top of the
Holstein breeding, and when beef ami
mails with the blood of Fairfax, Col
fox and Family Pride of Aberdeen, sell
at ordinary beef prices, or there
abouts, it certainly shows lack of
progressiveness on the part of all
farmers using scrub bulls. Such ac-
tion on the part of such men will re-
suit in the breeders of purebred cat
tie selling most of their young males
for veal. Certainly no other practice
can be recommended to the breeders
of purebred dairy cattle as the price
Of young dairy bulls sold Saturday,
was not so per cent of the cost of
raising them.

MACHINERY AND ARr
Richard F. Bach, in Arts and Dec
ration

Richard +. Bach, in Arts and Deco
ration.
Compare the potter's wheel that
produced Greek vases of 500 B. c.
with the bigger" or "pull-down" in
the modern factory turning out table
china. Compare the primitive appa-
ratus for weaving with modern
Jacquard loom. Compare the old
time chisel and mallet with the
rapid-fire moulding machine. And
consider other developments such as
the metal spinning machine, stamp
ing machines. even the wicker loom
for weaving baby cabs. And finally
consider the printing press. Each
development reduces the time of
labor needed, but has no effect on the
quality of either material or execu-
ton. And each brings the resultant
piece within reach of larger num-
Der of consumers. Thus We approx
innate the fundamental requirement
of democracy.
1t is not the machine that destroys
design. To blame II on the machine
is to confess inability properly to use
the machine. A mechanism cannot be
reasoned with; 1t must be controlled
ruthlessly. A mercerized cotton
warp and a wood pulp filling will
not produce in the journey through
IL
diocre conception on paper combined
with poor equipment inadequatel
understood will not produce a mas
terpiece in metal or in millinery.
The answer is; Workman, know thy
tools.
Let me give you an outstanding
example, There are lace machines,
making curtain net. in complex de-
signs, which weave a length of so
yards of lace of total width Of
nearly 10 feet Such machines are
harnessed up with 5000 threads; tho
yarn used in one threading. IL run
in a single length. amounting to
something over 5000 miles. Two
skilled operatives work steadily for
two weeks only to thread this ma
chine. Depending or the design In
the work, as many as 500 widths of
edging or insertion can be woven. or
total of 5000 yards, from one
threading. This is complicated
tool.
Is is worth while? Could you af-
ford hand made lace curtains? The
question answers itself. 1t is mat
ter of design. always design, that
counts; but of course design must be,
as it always has been, devised In ac-
cord with the possibilities of the tools
with which 1t is executed.
