School Notes

Our English teacher has asked to
have the following poem printed. We
can easily tell it was written by a
Junior.
Juniors, Juniors, pride of our school
Juniors, Juniors not one a fool,
The Seniors thot they had us beat
We taught them we'd not stand de-
feat
Juniors, Juniors, empty without,
Juniors, Juniors, thirty about
The Sophomores thank their lucky
stars,
That they are not US Juniors.
Juniors, Juniors chuck full of fun,
Juniors, Juniors bright as the sun,
The Freshman know we're best of all
And we don't doubt their word at ALL"

Professor Richet of the French Ac
ademy of Medicine says woman pos
sesses a faculty, called "Cryptae-
thesia." That's,a scientific name for
intuition, woman's strange power to
judge character at glance, her abil-
ity instantly to tell the truth from
falsehood.
"Cryptaethesia" is older than the
French Academy of Medicine, older
than the pyramids. Women practiced
that faculty hundred thousand
years ago, when their husbands came
wandering in late from the cave
across the valley. It's their one safe

The air giant Fri, bigger than the
biggest steamship, uses less than a
gallon Of gasoline per mile in her
flight of 1000 miles. A big ocean
steamer would need two tons of coal
to one gallon of gas for a giant flyer.
That shows the difference in power
needed to push aside light air and
heavy water and it tells you how
cheaply men will travel in years to
come if they get rid of that "all the
traffic will bear slogan. 1t is quite
probable that in future one days work
will earn the actual cost of flight

Wis Have Lona seer Worn.

The custom of wearing wigs is Of
great antiquity. If, as seems probable,
the curious head covering of the figure
in a prehistoric ivory carving is a wig,
the adornment may be traced back
10000 years. Certainly the Egyptians
wore wigs as part of the royal or Off
cial costume. The Greeks. too. were
addicted to the vanity.

Hairs on the Human Head.

One authority says an average head
of hair may consist of as many as
100000 hairs of the darker shades, and
red hair about $4,000. A count of the
hairs on square inch of scalp on
numerous heads gives an average of
1000 per square, inch; on certain
other heads the figures are zero!

Brighter Future
For Agriculture

Despite the present agricultural de-
precision involving low prices and the
liquidation of excessive land values,
the longer outlook for American agit-
culture is distinctly more optimistic"
declared DR.. l.. G. Gray, economist of
the United States department of agri.
culture, addressing the American Az
ISOLATION of Joint Stock Land Banks
at Chicago recently.
DR.. Gray based his conclusion on
the fact of steadily increasing popu-
lation co-incident with reduction in
per capita acreage of crop and pas
ture lands made necessary by the low
quality of the greater part of the area
still available for the expansion of our
farming area. He pointed out that
prospective competition of the three
uses--crops, pasture, and forests-for
the remaining humid area will soon be-
come much more intense because of
the necessity of growing our timber
instead of cutting from a stored sup
ply.
DR.. Gray cited statistics to show
that the high point in the supply Of
crop and pasture land in proportion to
population was reached several dec
AIDES ago, and that as population in,
creases in the United States, most OF
the land that is now devoted to pro.
duction of surplus crops for foreign
consumption will be required to meet
domestic demands for food.
Within 80 years, Dr. Gray said, I'VE
are likely to find ourselves on an i'm
port basis or at least forced to protect
our producers against the exports Of
other surplus producing nations. Con-
sequently large section of Ameri-
can farmers will benefit by the trans
portation differential between the 10,
cality OF production and the more dis.
tant centers Of world consumption"

From Hog to Ham.

The proper time to begin curing
pork is when the meat is cool and
still fresh, or about "a to SO hours
after killing Use a clean, hardwood,
molasses or syrup barrel in which to
cure the pork. A large stone jar Is
best. but the cost Is high.
Salt, saltpeter, sugar and molasses
are the principal preservatives used
IN curing the pork. A good grade Of
dairy salt, or salt intended for table
use, is reasonably free from impurl-
ties and gives the desired penetration
In less time than impure salt Salt
peter Is used to hasten the curing of
the meat. Use sparingly. Sugar and
molasses soften the muscle fibers and
improve the flavor.
Place for Curing-A COOL we'll ven
tilated lar. free from rats, is the
most desirable place for both brine
and dry curing. The smokehouse may
be used when curing by the dry salt
method, but special attention should
be given to the ventilation to prevent
excessive dryness. 1t is best before
using any method of curing to rub
the surface Of the meat with fine salt

DISEASED COWS
BEING REMOVED
Dairymen Refuse to Keep Herds
Found Tubercular-Find
Small Number Left.
UTAH BUYS DAIRY STOCK
Second Shipment Leaves Washington
County Agents Instrumental In
improving Herds.

To ascertain the extent to which
cattle that have reacted to the tube1-
J culin test are being held as segregated
herds in the United States, recent
survey was made through the field Of
fices of the bureau of animal indus
try, United States department of agri-
culture.
Data gathered show that there are
within the United States only POL
herds containing 2,461 tuberculous
cattle permanently maintained for
breeding purposes. In addition, there
are on 191 premises 447 animals,
which on June 80, 1928, we're being
held temporarily for various reasons.
This is total of only 1872 premises on
which there are 2,90S head of tuber
culous cattle that have been held
longer than the usual 30-day period.
Frequent discussion of the problem
of retaining diseased cattle after they
have reacted to the tuberculin test
has led to the belief that the idea
might be favorably looked upon by
the livestock owners of the United
States. The figures quoted above,
however, indicate that the progressive
American farmer is DESTROYS of totally
eradicating the disease at the earliest
possible moment, which undoubtedly
accounts for the small number of such
cattle being held. Prompt slaughter
of cattle reacting to the tuberculin
test is the prevailing custom in the
United States, since the results OBJ
tanned from holding cattle do not ap-
pear to justify the additional labor and
expense.
The second shipment of dairy ami
mails was made from western Wash
ington recently to their destination in
Weber county, Utah, near Ogden
There were mostly Holsteins in the
car, but it included also several Guern-
seys and Jerseys. They were sold to
the Weber County Holstein Breeders
association members and their neigh
bors for use on their farms to build
up the dairy industry in that part of
the state. The animals were purchased
from the following breeders: Two g.
months-old heifers from Ed Hoem of
Snohomish; one yearling bull from
Carnation stock farms, King county;
two bull calves from Hollywood
farms, both sons of Judge Segis; seven
Guernsey bulls and one heifer from
herds near Astoria, Ore, and six Jer-
sey bulls from the vicinity Of Salem.

Some interesting figures have been
compiled by the United States depart
ment Of agriculture to show what can
be made from a definite quantity of
milk. Using 100 pounds of milk which
tests per cent, 1t has been found that
this quantity will make about as
pounds of butter. II pounds of Ched-
dar cheese, 45 fifteen-ounce cans Of
condensed milk. 1875 pounds of whole
milk powder, 8.5 pounds of Swiss
cheese, or % pounds of Camembert
cheese. The exact amounts of these
products that can be made from 100
pounds Of milk varies with the rich
