had told how devoted Leslie Prescott

OF the women Of the screen had not

and some Of them had told me they
were sure they knew no difference
in the love they bore these children

and said. do you think might

"T am afraid not Paula" he an

said, Take me home, Dick. take ma

Summer Feeding Problem
is Solved by Pastures

Recall the times when you are espe-
cially contented and happy. The ex-
preston that you are in clover" seems
to exactly express your mood. At such
times you are capable of doing your best
work. So is it with your livestock
Provide the surroundings that make for
comfort and supply the luxuriant green
feed that they like and all during the
summer months, they too are 'in clio.
yer" and will produce their best.
The best way of accomplishing this is
with the pasture grass mixtures, or in
the case of hogs, with alfalfa and sweet
clover. The pasture grass mixtures
have been producing as much feed as
the alfalfa acreage. By pasturing the
grass, the farmer has saved the ex-
pense of putting up the hay, feeding it
and then spreading the manure. In ad-
dition to all of this saving, the stock,
because of having the comfortable sur
roundings and plenty of succulent feed,
are producing better than if kept in the
dry lot and feed dry feeds. They get
the exercise they need, are away from
most of the flies and are still close to
the house, so they are easily taken care
of.
The grass mixture recommended is as
follows: Bronze grass Is pounds; or.
chard grass Is pounds; timothy 6 pounds;
and yellow sweet clover pounds. This
makes total of SO pounds of seed per
acre. This high rate of seeding is used
to enable the getting of good sod as
quickly as possible. If conditions are
favorable. the rate of seeding may be
decreased and good sod be secured.
In connection with the large amount of
seed used. it is well to note that grass
seed is the cheapest this spring that 1t
has been for four or five years, so this
is the time to get in your pasture.
The grass mixture should be planted
on land that has been we'll prepared.
The seed is small so necessitates seed
bed as good or better than that used for
beets. 1t should be planted as soon as
possible now. The early seedlings do
best. The seed is planted using barley
or oats or wheat as a nurse crop. A
half seeding of the nurse crop is used
The second years crop or the grass
should be cut for hay and then the sod
will be well enough established to pas
ture. This will last from 10 to 10 years
and each year carry as much as alfalfa
would if the hay were cut. You need
the pasture. This is the time to top it

Big words are all right, provided a
fellow is as big as the words he uses.
Take care of the little troubles and
there won't be any big ones to bother
you.
If fortune is unkind to you it is your
own fault. You have not tried to make
her acquaintance.
Some men boast that their consciences
never bother them-and we believe it.
Wise is the man who knows when
not to exhibit his wisdom.
They say some women's faces are
their fortunes, and we suspect it costs
fortune to preserve the faces.
1t costs nothing to look on the brigh,
side of life, but brooding on the dark
side is an expensive habit.
A good way to overcome trouble is tc
refuse to recognize it as such.
