The Ward County independent., 1922-12-14

A banker at Aneta sent two car
loads Of baled straw to New York
paper manufacturer to see what kind
Of paper could be made from it and
the results were very satisfactory.
The paper was delivered to the Pan
Drama at Aneta, where it was used
along with other paper. Millions of
tons of straw go up in smoke :. in
North Dakota every year, and it
seems that somehow, someone could
be induced to make part of this into
paper, SO that North Dakota publica-
tions might be printed on North Da-
kota paper to the benefit Of North
Dakota people.

DEMAND FOR LABOR
GREATER DUE TO WEATH Err

Fargo, n. D., Dec. The cold

DAIRY
WEIGHING MILK FOR MARKET
Less Trouble Between Producers and
Dealers If Records Are Kept
at Both Ends of Line.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agrtculture)
Producers who ship milk to city
distributors have voiced frequent COM
plants because of the disparity be-
tween their figures on the quantity of
milk shipped and those of the dealers
on the quantity received. In order to
locate the cause of complaint by study
ing the actual loss between the cOun-
try shipping point and the city plant
the United States Department of
the Baltimore market. Records kept
on more than LOO cans showed that
the loss between the country station
and the city plant was less than / per
cent. The loss on trains, probably due
to splitting, was only 0.19 per cent; and
from the city railroad platform to the
plant it was 0.55 per cent.
However, it was found that when
the milk was weighed in the city
plant there was shortage of 2.56 per
cent on the amount shipped according
to can measure in the country. Of this
shortage, 0.74 per cent was due to ac-
tual losses, while 1S2 per cent was
the difference between can measure
and weight. This is easily accounted
for by the fact that cans become
dented and battered, which decreases
their holding capacity.

THE ROMANCE OF WORDS
QUARANTINE"

THE origin of a term of 40
- days-a "quarantine"-as a
sanitary precaution against the
spread of various diseases is lost
in the dim mazes of early ORR
entail history. Forty days was
the period devoted in ancient
times to the burial of the dead.
The spies of the Israelites spent
40 days in Canaan before they
submitted the report. Jonah
gave the residents of Nineweh 40
days in which to consider his
prophecy and repent. Christ,
Moses and Elijah each tasted for
40 days-the Christian Observ-
ance of Lent being a cOmmemor-
alton of the most notable of
these. Under William the Con-
queror no man was permitted to
remain in England more than
40 days without paying a tax
of some kind, while under the
Magma Charta it is provided that
a widow shall remain 40 days
in the house of her deceased
husband before being allotted
her dowry.
The modern sanitary adapta-
ton Of the quarantine was es-
tablished by the French along
the Mediterranean in order to
prevent the introduction Of
plague from the eastern coun-
tries, but apparently the only
reason for the arbitrary setting
of such time is that it forms
one of the periods resulting from
a division of the lunar year by
the mystic number nine.

PROVIDE PLENTY OF WATER
Cows Must Have Abundant Supply in
Summer and Winter for Profit
able Mink Production.

Successful dairy farmers find that
it pays to provide plenty Of good,
clean, cool water for milk cows
Eighty-seven per cent Of milk is wa
ter, as is nearly three-fourths of a
cows body. Experimental data show
that the amount of water required by
cows is in direct proportion to the
amount Of milk produced. In the
summer, the average COW will require
nearly three pounds of water for ev-
cry pound Of milk she produces. In
one experiment cow giving u pounds
Of milk drank u pounds of water
daily. The same COW drank less than
half as much when giving no milk.
In all cases, it is decidedly good prac-
tice to provide an abundance of clean,
fresh water, cool in the summer and
warm In the winter.

REAL COURAGE

To be feared of thing and yet do 1t.
fs what makes the prettiest kind of a
xrnan-Robert Louis Stevenson.
TF YOU have read kidnapped" you
~ remember the quotation. 1t was
spoken by Alan Brock after the boy,
David, had stood for a minute terri
fed on the brink of a roaring torrent,
ard then, still sick with the fear of
ff, leaped across.
To Alan Breck, the leap meant lit
tie. II required no courage for him
To make it, for he knew very little of
fear. But for the boy. who did the
thing he feared as he feared death,
ff was real act Of herOism.
The only real courage consists in
doing the thing we are afraid to do.
The hulking prizefighter of the John
Sullivan type, who has as much i'm
agination as a grizzly bear, is not
brave. He is sure he is going to win.
If takes no courage TO go into a win
ming fight.
The bully is never brave. In fact
he Is always coward. Feeling sure
that his superior size will carry him
Through, he picks quarrels as pleas
ant method of passing his time.
Put this same bully into the ring
with a large hungry tiger, face him
with a man who looks as If he en-
1oyed shooting DULLES as much as the
bully enjoys thrashing his physical
interiors, and all the courage oozes
ont of the bully.
You will never know whether you
are brave or not TIL you find yourself
I'm a position where you are afraid to
do something that ought to be done.
If you do it, you have courage. If
you shrink from it and quit, you have
not.

ness to take chance, to attempt some
dangerous thing for the kind Of cour-
age that counts.
1t is not brave but very foolish
man who walks a tight rope over
Niagara falls. 1t is brave man, who
not wanting to die, and knowing that
an operation may send him out or
the world, cheerftIlly goes to the
table, to take the one chance that
may mean his continued support of
his wife or his dependents.
Often the timid school boy, who
fears to quarrel, and tries his best to
keep his peace with his fellows, gets
the name of coward. But when this
same boy has to fight for what he
thinks is his honor, or TO save little
boy from a bully, he becomes a very
dangerous fighter.
Real courage is not daunted by pain.
The boy or the man who fights when
he is afraid to, stops being afraid of
anything, pain, or black eye, or
punishment. He fights because he
has courage, and he usually wins.
There is more real courage n this
world than you fancy. 1t is behind
all great achievement. If you have it,
you are fortunate. But don't be sure,
either that you have or that you
haven't it till you have done or re-
fused to do something you were afraid
to do.

That you should make a fashion of

The tot lost his balance, his head be-

Ing, who were attracted by her
screams, and Of women in the car.
Half an hour after the accident
Mrs. Henderson was taken to the Co.

members Of the family.
Mrs. Henderson and little Barnard
