mittee from the Virginia Chamber of
Commerce they formulated plans for

purebred Poland China gilt from a
breeder in neighboring state. Being
the first purebred gilt brought inlo the
county for hoys and girls club work,
she has furnished more stock than any
other SOW in the section. With the
start that the bank gave the youngster

that hog raising in his county was not
profitable, for at the present time he

Cattle Spaying

By this method cattle men are able
to clean the herd from cows at as
good price that otherwise sell at u
small price. Spayed COWS are always
ready for the market and sell at steer
prices. Your buyer can sell to feed
ers or hold the COWS until the price
is right. Where the fat COW that is
not operated on must be slaughtered
at once for fear that she shows evil
dence of pregnancy. Cows that or
dinarily sell for forty dollars should
sell at fifty-five dollars after she is
operated on. Write or call me at
Salmon for further information.-DR

Eggs decrease in density as they

Melt two ounces of kitchen salt in

in it. When first laid they will de-

they will almost touch it; when three
days old they will swim. and when
older will float on the top. The more
they project above the water the older
they are. A preserved egg will foat

Among Subjects consid-
cred by Him.

Washington, Aug. 9.-The coal situ-
alton and the soldiers bonus issue
were among subjects brought to the
attention Of President Coolidge Thurs
day.
Former Senator Calder of New York
urged the President to take Immediate
steps to prevent an anthracite strike.
Representative Treadway Of Massachu-
sets also discussed the coal situation.
A delegation Of state commanders of
the American Legion called on the
President, after which William Doyle,
Massachusetts commander, declared
that Mr.. Coolidge can be depended
upon to support a soldiers bonus. Mr..
Doyle said that as governor of Massa-
chusetts Mr.. Coolidge was the first
to sign a state bonus bill. 1t WAS

The President had his first meeting
with his cabinet, when all members Ii
the city met in the Presidents room
at the New Willard hotel before leav-

body of President Harding to the rail-

was no discussion of public questions
at the meeting.
Attorney General Daugherty was IN
conference with the President for some
time preceding the meeting. 1t has
been expected that the attorney gen

the cabinet, but whether this question
was under discussion was not made
known.
Former Senator Calder and Repre-
sentative Treadway, who discussed
the coal situation with President Cool
idge, both have taken an active part
In urging coal legislation.
Mr.. Calder, author of bill pro-

something must be done by the gov
eminent. Mr.. Calder arranged to see
the President again on the subject In
about ten days.

The Custard Cup

as it's, you've got something to be
proud of. I've always thought I'd
rather mourn for a man that was
brave than cook for a man that's a
coward"
Mrs. Percy, regulating this conso-
lation, tossed her head in some Of
tense. Il didn't mean it would have
been easy in any event. The thing,
after all, that makes me miserable is
my broken life. When you've had ten
years Of married happiness, you don't
get reconciled to giving it up"
Mrs. Penfeld gazed at her dream
fly. "No, not reconciled! Being re-
signed to ev'rything is pretty good
sign of moral prostration. But there's
one thing you got to remember: if
you had ten years of happy married
life, you had exactly ten years more
than lot Of women have, and you'd
oughter be thankful for it, long with
your mourning"
Mrs. Percy's lips came together
with a snap. An uncomfortable ST.
lence spread over the room, pressing
conversation out Of existence. Mrs
Penf1eld, fearing that she had been
too outspoken, sprang up briskly, with
the thought of breaking the tension.
"You mustn't imagine I'm unsympa-
thetic, cause underneath / been study

is, look out that you don't take cold,
entertaining us in room that don't
get any sun. Here, let me put this
little shawl round your shoulders.
You mustn't take any chances, you
know"
Without waiting for assent she
snatched the crocheted shawl from the
table and proffered it to her hostess.
And Mrs. Percy, the spoiled, the
waited-on, was instantly Modified.
She accepted the service with MUIR
INJURED gratitude.
No sooner had Mrs. Penfeld re-
sumed her seat, however, than it was
Mrs. Percy who did the springing.

country already in distress and chaos
because Of the governments inability
to turn out money fast enough, the
news of the money printers strike
spread new gloom.
The threat Of a revolution which for
weeks has been talked about through
out the country, was heard in the
reichstag when a speaker Of the COM
munist party warned the government
that It's financial program would be
answered with the proclamation of a
soviet state ''in which the present
capitalist government would be
crushed to pieces under the heels Of
the German proletariat."

With careless gesture, Mrs. Penfield

With her left hand she was trying
to disengage from the fuzzy shawl
first one and then the other of two
small caterpillars.
''Well, l declare to goodness |" ex-
claimed Mrs. Penheld safely. Her
hands were busy with the shawl, but
in some way, not explained, 1t had
become entangled in the buttons of
the green sweater, and it was not
easily freed. Mrs. Percy'S agitation

things at once became evident. One
was that Mrs. Percy was using her
right hand; the other, that an active
caterpillar was excursioning up the
front of Mrs. Penfie1d's dress.

Mrs. Penfeld
But at this point Mrs. Percy de-

stormed about the room, forgetful of
feet that dragged, of legs that refused
to be supple. She shivered and
screamed and fought the air with
nervous flashing of both arms. Her
dark eyes shot mad chances in every
direction, searching for more cater

dropped. She had become conscious
of the interested, significant gaze Of
her guests-a gaze that reminded her
of many things.
"Ugh!' she cried. "Ain't this aw-

Hlndus Have Evolved Really Unique
Way of Evading Religious
Technicality.

Probably the most curious form of
marriage in existence prevails in India,
where men and women are married to
trees. A Hindu in the Punjab cannot be
legally married third time, and when,
therefore, he wants a third wife, he is
married to certain tree, so that when
he does actually take another wife she
counts as his fourth.
In another district Of India there are
communities where a tree marriage is
solemnized in the case Of a man who
has lost two wives and is DESTROYS of
taking a third, or man who is too
poor to marry In the usual way.
In the latter case, the man is after
wards married to a widow. AS, how
ever, the remarriage of widow is held
by orthodox Hindus to be fraught with
every calamity, the wedding is Der
