BEDTIME STORY FOR CHILDREN
By THORNTON w. BURGESS

"THREE times I've turned upon
L my tail,
And crossed my toes, but still fail
To win from Luck my simple wish
For just one single little fish,"
AS he said this, Buster Bear sat
and stared into the Laughing Brook
with wrinkled brows. He had set out
that morning to get fish for breakfast,
and because he had set his heart on
fish, nothing else would do. You
know, Buster Bear is sometimes what
is called pig-headed-that is, he starts
TO do thing, and no matter what hap
pens he persists in trying TO do it.
He had started out for fish that morn
ing, and fish he would have or else
go hungry. Now, everybody knows
that ii is of no use TO try to drink
from an empty pail, and every fisher
man knows that ii is of no use 10
fish when the fish have gone away
from their favorite places. Buster
Bear knew that for some unknown
reason there were no trout in the lit
tie shallow. pools where he does his
fishing. OF course. he didn't know
this when he started out that morning,
but it didn't take him great while to
find il out. Not so much as glimpse
of a fin or tail had Buster had. and he
had followed the Laughing Brook al
most 10 the place where il leaves the
Green Forest on its way To the Smiling
Pool in the Green Meadows.
And Just because he couldn't have
fish, Buster wanted fish more than
anything else in the world. People
are that way sometimes. SO Buster
persisted in wandering along the
Laughing Brook, hoping that luck
would turn. Fishermen, you know,
are great believers in luck, and Buster
is like the rest. That is why he said
that foolish little verse at the begin
ming of this story. OF course, he
knew il was all foolishness to turn
around three times and to cross his
toes. and when he did these things
he looked around first to make sure
that no one would see him. And, of
course, his luck didn't change. You

The reason Buster Bear saw no fish
that fine morning was that there were
no fish 10 see. They had all gone
down to the Smiling Pool because the
water there was deeper and cooler
than in the Laughing Brook. You see,
the weather had been so hot for so
long that the Laughing Brook was
growing smaller and smaller, and so
the fish had moved down to the Smil
ing Pool for comfort and safety. If
Buster had used his common sense
he would have known this and given
up all thought of fish.
AT last he sat down in little open
place close by the Laughing Brook and
not far from where Plunger the Fish

Wheat Has Proved Value
in Dairy Cows Ration

The boost in wheat prices may result
in corn proving more economical
grain in the dairy ration than wheat,
on some farms, according to G. L.
Blackman. specialist in dairying in the
department of animal husbandry at the
Ohio State university.
If the price of wheat should go much
higher than that of corn, he asserts II
will be good business to sell wheat and
buy corn and save the balance. This.
he believes, is good time to watch
prices of all kinds and vary the ra-
lions according to the largest possible
returns per dollars worth of feed.
1t has been found that when wheat
displaces 800 pounds of corn and
makes up 80 per cent of the dairy ra-
ton, about the same results are OBJ
tanned from the wheat as are obtained
from the corn, if both rations are fed
with alfalfa hay and corn silage. The
cows gain little more in body weight
on the corn ration but produce little
more butterfat on the wheat ration.

Hawk had built his nest. Buster sat
down to rest and cool off. He had
not been there long when he heard
voices, harsh, screaming voices. They
came from high up in the air. Buster
: tipped his head back and looked up.
There he saw Plunger the Fish Hawk
and King Eagle, and they were quar-
reling. Plunger was lodging this way
and that way, now up, now down, now
to this side and now to that. And
clutched in Plunger's claws was
great, big, fat fish. At the sight of
that fish ii seemed to Buster that his

sir, that is the way it seemed. Water
began to trickle from the corners of
his mouth, water of pure longing.
Plunger was high in the air, and II
that fish was big enough for him TO
see al that distance it must be very,
very much bigger than any fish Buster
had ever caught in the Laughing
Brook. Buster could not keep his
greedy little eyes off it. He knew by
what he saw that King Eagle was try
ing to make Plunger give up that fish.

Feeding Skimmilk

Increased use of the cream sepa-
rator on the farms of this state should
do much to increase the income from
pigs, chickens and calves to which
the skimmilk is fed. Recent months
have seen the price of milk powder,
casein and other skimmflk products so
unsatisfactory that it has become de-
sirable in so far as possible to keep
the skimmilk at home for utilization
as feed. Cooperative creameries and
others have been recommending this
practice to their members and patrons.
The doubly desirable result of in
creased profit from poultry and live
stock and gradual reduction of the
surplus of skimmilk products should
be noted.-Idaho Farmer.

Of forage and other dairy food can sell

Kinney dairy extension specialist at
North Carolina State college. The
relation between the farm price of
dairy feeds and butterfat is favorable
now and bids fair to remain so. Rec
Ords kept on present market conditions
show that if $14 worth of feed is fed
100 pounds of butterfat. When sold
for buttermaking purposes, this fat is
worth $2S. In addition, there will be
left on the farm about 1000 pounds of
skimmilk worth 35 cents hundred

In addition to these values, rs per

manure, and thus cut down the fertiliz-
er bill. says Mr.. Kinney.
The return from selling feedstuffs

gest that better price will be re-

tage of steady income each month

DAIRY NOTES

Ground soy beans as feed for
growing dairy calves gave nearly iden-
ticaI results with linseed meal in ex-
periments at Purdue university.
Most bacteria in milk come from
dirty cows and dirty utensils, but dirty
stables, bad air and dirty surroundings
all add their share of germs.
Turnips are somewhat better for
dairy cows than carrots. though the
latter may be used.
Cattle will live to the age Of fifteen
years if not slaughtered before that
time. Unless special circumstances
exist, a cow will have outlived her use
fulness by the age of ten years.
Bad flavors in butter in winter oft
en- come from keeping the cream too
long before churning. 1t is a nuisance
to churn small amount, but may pay.
"Feed silage and root crops after
milking, not before" is the advice CIV

association to help their patrons com
bat rejection of milk because of off
