Always Springtime in Quito, on the Equator

The suburbs of Quito, the capital of
Ecuador, nearly touch the equator, but
its 100000 inhabitants enjoy perpet-
ual springtime, says bulletin from
the National Geographic society. The
city nestles in a bowl-shaped depres-
sion nearly two miles high among the
Andean peaks. Snow-eapped noun
tains are visible from the streets.
Before the completion of the Quito

capital with Ecuador's principal gate
way and port, Quito was isolated The

DAIRY
BEST TO LET COW
FRESHEN IN FALL
Several Excellent Reasons
for the Practice.

Usually the COW bred during the
latter part of January or in Feb
ruary will freshen in early fall and
will produce more butterfat through
twelve-months period than when
bred to freshen in the spring.
1.-The COW that freshens in the fall
does not suffer from hot weather and
flies during the period of her heaviest
milk flow as does the COW that fresh
ems in the spring." suggests A. q.
Kinney of the dairy extension Office
at the North Carolina State college.
over in the fall, and the owner has
more time to care for the COW dur
ing this heavy producing period. Then,
too. the prices for butterfat are usual
ly better in winter than in summer.
December butterfat often sells for 10
to II cents pound more than May
and June butterfat"
Mr.. Kinney finds that a majority
of the creameries in North Carolina
has surplus of butter during the
SuiuiHef nOHIHS DuI scarcity III VIII
ter. This means that much of the
product must be consigned to the
large central markets at a sacrifice in
price. In winter it is hard TO supply
the local demand. Since the pay
ments made to dairymen for their
butterfat are based on the price
which the creameries receive for
their manufactured butter, ii seems
only wise to try TO sell the most fat
when the best prices may be obtained.
Mr.. Kinney says
A little more attention by dairy
men to the breeding period of their
cows would make possible a greater
annual income per COW. he suggests.

And strangely, adding fuel to this

folly lay in the quiet sympathetic mo

DR.. Bradford Losee, who since the

TO be innocent; innocent of the sus-

He knew her to be innocent with his
mind and with his heart he burned and

had given her that strength.
1t was on the occasion of one of the
unexpected hOmecOmings that, finding
her on her knees beside Bradford in
the library of their home, without a
seconds hesitation, Bennett reached
for his hip pocket and fired.
sitting there in the witness
chair, the steel beads of sweat out all

plain to the judge, why he had COM

wife and her rector, suddenly Bennett
knew the futility of the attempt.
There are certain things so closely
enmeshed within the complicated pat
tern of the human heart, that to even
try to explain the more subtle and ter
rifying of human motives and emo

Benefit of Drinking Cups

We understand some tests were
made in the Iowa State College of
Agriculture and as a result, cows
given free access to drinking cups
produced about per cent more milk
and about II per cent more butter
fat than cows turned outside to drink
at trough As near as could be de-
termined the cows drank about Is per
cent more water from the buckets
than they did from outdoor troughs.
They drank about ten times every "a

MINERALIZED SOY
BEAN OIL MEAL
(By Dr. John M. Evvardl

(By Dr. JOnn M. EVVard)
Soybean Oil Meal, rightly manu-
factured in modern up-to-date mills,
provides for poultry feeding, under
current price conditions, an out
standing economic source of very SUI
periOr grain-balancing proteins, some
vitamins, minerals and other nutri-
ents. Solbean Oil Meal runs well
over 40 per cent protein, sometimes
as high as As per cent, depending
upon the beans from which it is pro-
cessed. These proteins are eff
ciently unique in their chemical con-
stitution as compared with other
plant source supplements.
DR.. Scott-Romertson over i'll the
Emerald Isle found in his research
work that SOlbean Oil Meal, when
adequately fortified with essential
minerals and fed along with the basal
ration used, largely cereals, gave a
higher egg production per bird over
nine months period than when, for
instance, Fish Meal was used. When
Dr.. Scott Robertson fed cereals only
to hens, the yield for the above
period was 129 eggs per
bird; when he added Blood Meal and
certain minerals he got only 119
eggs per hen; when Fish Meal was
used to build up the protein of his
ration, the egg-layers shelled out an
average of 1853 eggs; and when the
same basal ration was supplemented
with Soybean Oil Meal, fortified with
the minerals he used, the yield ump-
ed to 1852 eggs per hen. This is
rather remarkable showing for Soy
bean Oil Meal when fortified with
minerals in the balancing of the ce-
real ration experimental with.
DR.. Bethke and associates of the
ohio Agricultural Experiment Sta
ion did considerable work with Soy |
lean Oil Meal in the raising of
;hicks, their prime object being to |
ind out if SOybean Oil Meal would |
replace a major portion
If the Dried Buttermilk. In the basal
'ation which they used, twenty-five
pounds of Dried Buttermilk was in
,luded in the all mash. In the as
ret unpublished results which DR..
3ethke secured, figures of which he
ave us recently, we note that where
n 60 per cent of the Dried Butter
milk was replaced by SOybean Oil
Zeal, the ration being kept efficient
rom a mineral fortificatiOn stand
oint, the chicks made better show
lg than where straight Buttermilk

1t is we'll to emphasize that when
oybean Oil Meal is used, it should
e fortified with certain essential
which are incorporated in ;
ne right proportions.

HONOR LINCOLN WITH
SIMPLE PARTY MENU

Friendship was the keynote of
Lincolns life, so make friendship the
keynote of any event in honor of him
as one of the greatest of friends.
Dismiss all pOmp and ceremony, Lin
coin would have done as much, and
invite only your most intimate
friends for an informal dinner and
evening together.
The table may be made attractive
by standing little log cabin sur
rounded by rail fence in the cen
ter. These are sold now at almost
any toy store as a fascinating "put-
together" game for children, and
will do splendidly for the table. To
further carry out the log idea, in
stead of using dOilies, at each place
put a square stack of small sticks
crosswise to support the plates and
use wooden chips with the guests
initials carved on them for place
cards.
Likewise the menu should include
those foods that were served in the
foothills of Kentucky. Inez S. Will
son, home economist, suggests such
foods as Kentucky baked ham with
cider sauce or roast leg of lamb, salt
rising or graham bread, cole slaw,
and pond cake to carry out the Lin
coin idea perfectly. Here is a ceripe
