The Perfect Day

It's hard to find a day so pleasant
that all its merits will indorse;
there always is some voter present
to rise and whinny like horse. We
need" he neighs, much cooler
weather" if haply warmth is now
on deck; so many sizzling days to-
gether will leave the corn ghastly
wreck" And if the day is cool and
breezy. solace to the safe and
sane, the voter springs some chest
nuts cheesey about the damaged hay
and grain. How often | have left
my dwelling, convinced the day was
fair and grand, with azure skies and
robins yelling, and sunshine dap
ping all the land, This is a day."
Nv often muttered, when even old
men feel like colts; the bread of life
is amply buttered, the globe moves
on with minor jolts. The hilltops
look like brass that's hammered, the
shadows move athwart the gorse !;
this is a day." I've often clamored.
that press and pulpit must indorse." "
And then | meet the dreary voter
who never yet was satisfied; he
throttles down his henry motor, and
sobs. and will not be denied. "Oh,
gee he walls through gnashing
tushes, there's so much dew it's
caused a blight; the prunes are
molding on the bushes, they're need
ing sunshine day and night"

OF all sharp eyes in the Green For
est and on the Green Meadows none
are sharper than those of Redtail the
Hawk. Probably none are as sharn
excepting those of his cousins. the
other members of the Hawk family
and those of King Eagle. Redtail
must depend wholly on his eyes to
find his food. Reddy Fox, Old Man
Coyote and most Of the other four
rooted hunters depend only in part
on their eyes. Their ears and their
noses, particularly their noses, help
them to find food
Now, RedtaiPs eyes are very Won
derful eyes. When he is high, high
up in the blue, blue ky his eyes are
like telescopes. He can see even as
small thing as grasshopper on the
gistanoe grSano; SO Q, ne ooGraa can see for long
about that Chuck family. He had
watched those young Chucks from the
time when they first poked their
funny, little black noses outside their
home. He had watched them grow,
and as they grew so did his desire to
have one for a dinner. But every
time he had flown over where they
were Polly Chuck's watchful eyes had
seen him in plenty of time. And SO
Redtail hadn't even swooped at them
Patience" he would say to him
self, patience. One of these days
one of those young Chucks Is going
to leave home, and then there will be
no watchful mother to warn him."
So every day from a distance Red
tail kept watch of the Chuck home
and the growing of the young Chucks.
On the morning that the disobedi-
ent young Chuck ran away Redtail
had left the Green Forest to look over
the Green Meadows. 1t was grass
hopper time and Redtail had a fond
ness for grasshoppers. For a while
he didn't think of anything else.
When he had caught enough to sat
iefy him for the time being he mount
ed high in the air and began to swing
in big circles. looking down to see
what he could see.

FORM POULTRY POOL

Barron, Wis.--Falling in line with
Wisconsin tobacco growers, cheese
and butter products, and cherry pro-
ducers the poultrymen in Polk, Bar
ron and Burnett counties have form
ed poultry association for market
comparatively live poultry and poul-
try products.
Efforts to organize the association
proved fruitful and the first car of
live poultry was sent to the Chicago
market accompanied by county agent
Klinka of Polk county, who is serving
as temporary manager of the newly
formed association. The returns from
the poultry will be pro-rated among
the shippers, this being the same
plan which is followed in livestock
shipping co-operatives.
The new association was brought
about through the combined efforts of
county agent j. S. Klinka, Jens Jen-
sen and o. Sorenson, all of Polk coun-
ty, and E. HI. Thompson, county agent
of Burnett county.

made? You have often resolved that
your next suit would be tailored to
your own measurement and out of

break your good resolution because
you failed to call on your tailor in
time to give him ample opportunity
to build the suit that you had in your
minds eye, and the consequence was
that you needed the suit right away
and were obliged to buy one off the
hanger. Don't wait too long the next

River Falls Boys
and Girls Calf Club

Did you ever ask yourself this
question: "Why Did My Son or
Daughter Leave The FARM"
Another question is: did You
Give Them A Square Deal?"
Boys and girls don't want anything
for nothing, blu THEY do want to be
treated like men and women, and want
to have full sized job to handle.
They especially want your conf
dence in their honesty and ability, and
love responsibility placed on their
shoulders.
Ownership is the keynote of sue
cess and supplies in incentive TO the
boy or girl to stay on the farm.
Competition is the tuning edge"
of trade. creating better spirit for
quality.
No better way to interest the boy
or girl than allow him the ownership
of calf, and compete as well as CO.
operate with each other by joining
Calf Club.
The Boys and Girls Calf Club re-
quires boys and girls between the
ages of 10 to 10 years. Younger per-
sons may be voted into a club as asso-
ciate members.
A standard Calf Club shall have
membership of at least 5.
There shall be a local club leader
in charge of the club during the club
year.
There shall be a demonstration
team which must give at least one
public demonstration in its comraun-
ity.
Every boy or girl must own his
or her own calf-pure-b bulls, and
pure-bred or high-grade heifers only.
An organization meeting will be
held some time in September.
