he had given her a sound spanking

New Years day. AS the jurists in

Memorial Day and the Fourth of July
are just around the corner, and that
Hubby might indulge in further fer

Warning from Detroit.
Detroit, Mich, correspondents to
Danish-American newspapers are
warning their readers in other COM
munities against coming to the motor
city in quest of work. Hundreds of
Danes have arrived assuming that
announcement of increased activities
in the automobile factories would
pave the way to employment. 1t is
not so, the correspondents point out.
Most of those who come, are bound
to be disappointed as the factories in
all cases give preference to former
employees of whom more than suf-
ficient number live in Detroit.
Unique Organization.
Unique is the Nils Larson Cousin
club which last week held it's tenth
annual meeting in Chicago. All the
members are descendants of Nils Lar
son, born i'm Skifarp, Sweden, in 1906;
there are 125 members of the family
club in this country, and an equal
number in Sweden. Nils Larson had
ten children, one of whom is still
living, &c grandchildren, 100 great
grandchildren, As great great grand
children and Z great great great
grandchildren.

(By U. S. Bureau of Agricultural Eco

South st. Paul, Mimi, Feb. 30, 1882;
The Toe to 15c advance in hog prices

middle of January. Trade was mod

100 to 225 Id. weights clearing at
$3.50 to $500, palmer kinds to 1913
and below. Desirable 225 to 240 Id.
butchers sold at $3.50 to $3.50, most
240 to 300 Id. butchers $3.50 to $3.50,
heavier and palmer offerings $3.50
and below. Better 40 to $50 Id. av-
erages turned at $3.50 to $3.50, plain
strongweights to 1925, thin offerings
as low as $500.
In the cattle division a slow, barely
steady market ruled in line with out
side conditions. Bulk of the slaughter
steers turned at S4.35 to S5.75, better
grades $500 to $3.50 sparingly. Beef
cows centered at $3.50 to 1925, butch
er heiferS $3.50 to $3.50, cutters SIZE
to $2.75, medium grade bulls 1928 to
$3.50, while vealers on a soc break
dropped back to a $3.50 to $500 basis
for medium to choice grades.
Another slow market featured on
fat lambs, best of the quota being
held at unevenly higher prices while
late last week bulk of the better
lambs turned at $685., few good to
choice grades today at $500. Medium
grade lambs cashed at $500 to $3.50,
throwouts at $500. Slaughter ewes
turned at $500 to $500.
Feeders and Suckers.
Demand for stockers and feeders
was moderately broad, thin offerings
turning at $500 to $4.25, few half
fat kinds to $3.50. Stock pigs held
at $500 to 1925, while choice feeder
lambs sold up to $500, medium grades
around $3.50.

"EkOrn."
"EkOrn," written by Haakon Lie,
has just been translated into English
from Norwegian, and published by a
Chicago house. This life story of a
squirrel is said to have the charm of
something written out of real know
ledge and genuine love of the for
est and it's inhabitants. Without hui
manizing his animals the author clev-
erly manages to tell the story from
their point of view.
Transatlantic Figures.
A statement from the Swedish
American line, indicative of the trend
of recent years, says that in 1929
there were 21,953 westbOund passen-

1880 the number was 1851, and in
1881 it had shrunk to $3.50. East

Mr., MutO JustifieS.
cagO, last week was the invited speak
er of the Norwegian Literary society
of that city, and was asked to dis
cuSS his cOuntry's conflict with China.
He courteously began by referring to
the fact that Henrik Ibsen, Bjorn-
Amundsen and other famous Norwe-
gianS were Familiarity known in Japan
and then launched into a disquisition
on the attitude of his country at the
present time. Mr.. MutO was very
careful to point out to his Norwegian
the sole responsibility for the little
affair at Shanghai" and that all of
Japan's acts had been amply justi-
fled, from a moral, technical and
legal viewpoint. A report of the meet

not quite successful in convincing his

sketch. is a dress that makes use OF
the same contrasting combination. The
effect is smart and professional. but 1t
is one that can be copied with success
by any home dressmaker. Simply cut
the pique into strips of desired width,
allowing about one-eighth of an inch
on either side for turning under; then
baste them into position on the or
candle and stitch carefully along the
edge Of the pique.
For a dress of this sort you will need
the conventional plain-toned organdie
and pique with fairly fire ridges. But
there are all sorts of organdies this sea-
son that you should consider. Lanvin
and Chanel of Paris have both Spon-
sored organdie for evening dresses

dots against white background. And
there are cross-barred organdie and
lowered organdie that have also been
used for some of the smartest O. the

Well Fed Ba by.

~ LANKET statements are always
- dangerous, but it is being recog-
niZed and accepted that the
IL diagnosis of collie arises less
and less often concerning the
modern baby. Colic is indigestion and
when we admit collie, We admit poor
feeding, usually oyerfeeding What most
mothers call collie is really just hunger.
Especially is this true when the baby
suffers it for many long months.
Here is a case that isn't easy to
pigeonhole because of the limited in
formation furnished. A young mother
writes: MY baby was eight months
old this month and weighs 18 pounds.
She has suffered with collie since she
was three weeks old. We gave her collie
medicine for four months. She has al
ways slept lightly, very little in day
time.
Now at eight months she Is still that
way. Every little noise waaenS her. She
Jerks, is restless, rolls from side to side
and cries out in her sleep. She is worse
If l feed her cereals. I give her three
tablespoonfuls day Of very thin cereal.
Her milk formula is 80 ounces Of milk,
10 of water and one tablespoonful oil
sugar. This goes into six bottles but
she rarely ever takes that much. l
IldfG JIlCd All1Ah ain 1903 AAAAAA'
give her orange juice once daily and
some milk Of magnesia in each bottle,
as she Is conStipated. think If this is
collie, it is time she outgrew it. think
also that she needs more solid foods"
It seems hardly credible that after
eight months your baby wouldn't be
able to digest the limited diet she now
receives. OF course you did not tell me
one thing about the type OF milk you
are using Both raw milk and very
rich milk would offer greater burdens
to the digestion than an ordinary pas
| teurized or boiled milk. The addition
of a proper amount of sugar would do
away with the necessity for the laxa-
| tive-and perhaps some gas pains are
| quite to be expected when a laxative is
given daily. At any rate. those are the
| first two suggestions made. Use milk
| not too rich in cream and boil 1t fol
| three minutes. Use 80 ounces of milk
10 of water. and four and one-half leve

mula into five bottles.
At am. give the formula; 9 am.

Hints on Good Health.
MATERWORKs.

~ EOPLE in cities turn faucets and
out comes water-for use In
drinking, washing or sprinkling
i the lawn.
The water is easy to obtain, and
we seldom think of the care which Is
taken to make it fit for human use-So
that when we drink 1t we may live to
tell the tale.
Now and then city uses wells for its
water supply, the water being pumped
around to the houses, but the more
usual custom is to use water from lakes,
rivers or mountain streams. Millions OF
persons drink water which Is taken
from the Great Lakes.
The waterworks system Of London,
England, supplies about 100000 per-
sons. More than 1000 miles OF pipe are
used in the London system, and every
day the pumps force between 250,000,-
900 and 350,000,000 gallons OF water
through the pipes to the consumers.
Another great waterworks system is
used by New York City. Tunnels were
cut through rock so that water from
distant mountain streams might pass to
the huge city and be supplied to the
people.
Large sums of money are spent to
guard people from dangers which might
come from water which had not been
purified.
In few cities compressed air is sent
through water in reservoirs. This helps
take away bad tastes and odors.
