Eliminate Loafer Cows,
Is Advice of an Expert

With feed costs rising rapidly,
the dairyman will be faced with a
serious feed problem. says G. A.
Williams of Purdue university. He
advocates ~dfsposing Of the inefi-
cient producers. rather than putting
high-priced feed through them when
they will not give enough milk to
pay for 1t. In case the dairyman
wishes to keep the low producers, 1t
would be we'll to rough them
through the winter. saving the
grain feed for the better producers
which will return some profit.
Williams cites the test figures
from a county testing association.
The ten high cows In the county
produced more than twice as much
milk as the ten low producers.
Each hundred pounds of milk pro-
duced by the poorest cows required
rs cents worth of feed, while the
best cows needed only 35 cents
worth to produce the same amount
of milk.
The best cow on test returned,
during last year. s95.02 above feed
costs. while the average poor COW
returned only S1.5S. Sixty poor
cows would be needed to produce
the same income above feed cost as
the one best cow.

One Sure Way to
End Coughs and Colds

Persistent coughs and colds lead to
serious trouble You can stop them now
with Crcomulsion, an cmulsi6ed creosote
that is pleasant to take. Creomulsion is q
new medical discovery with two-fold ac-
ton; it soothcs and heals the inaamcd
membranes and inhibits germ growth.
OF all known drugs, crcosotc is recog-
nized by high medical authorities as one
of the greatest healing agencies for per
sistent coughs and colds and other forms
ofthroat troubles. Circumcision contains,
in addition to creosote, other healing ele-
ments which soothe and heal the infected
membranes and stopthe irritation and in
fiammation, while the creosote goes on to
the stomach, is absorbed into the blood.
and attacks the seat of the trouble.
Circumcision is guaranteed satisfactory
in the treatment ofpersistent coughs and
colds, bronchial asthma, bronchitis, and
is excellent for building up the system
after colds or flu. Your " druggist is
authorized to refund your money on the
spot if your cough or cold is not re-
heved by Creomulsion. (adv.)

Pullets lay about 20 per cent more
eggs a year than do yearling hens.
North Carolina farm families
consumed $780, 900 chickens In 1882
and sold 100000.
Yeast adds to the cost of a poul-
try ration, but does not improve
the nutritive value of q good ration.
Furnish the hens with nests
about a foot wide and two to three
feet deep, filled with s~havings. The
nests should be darkened.
Door mats for hens, II you please.
They are nothing more nor less than
troughs filled with gypsum. placed
In front of the door and nests, to

Fifty pedigreed White Leghorn

special Nipponese emissary was
sent to select the birds for the gov
ernment's experimental farms.

Find the Drift
of Child's Mind
Desire to Please Is Not to
Be Classed With Plain
Deceitfulness.

There Is a difference between tell
Ing a fafsehood and saying some
thing to please. Children frequently
get blamed for lying when In reality
they are simply trying to express
what they believe the person with
whom they are talking would wish
them to say. In adults there is a
form of diplomacy which is akin to
this. With the child his idea is sim
ply to be agreeable. With the adult
the intention Is to so couch what he
or she says that 1t will not offend
but please, while at the same time
the words will carry the point even
to binding the other, If there is
acquiescence. This sort of thing is
SO customary In smooth business and
diplomatic relations that the per-
sons or groups have to be shrewdly
cautious In what they say. and keen
In their interpretations of what they
hear.
With the older persons the exact
significance of words and terms plays
an important part. A fine vocabulary
Is essential. Shades of meanings
must be conveyed and the interpre-
tations gagged on them. Carried TO
Its highest point such Juggling with
words becomes an art. and almost a
science. The truth need not be dis
torted, but such understanding of II
must exist that finally the groups
come to n mutual agreement.
A child often has an uncanny In
tuition of what the adult wants to
hear, and says 1t, using his limited
vocabulary. Frequently what is said
is not strictly true, but the motive
back of the words is not to deceive,
but to please.
For example, a child returns from
a party and is asked by her mother,
"Did you have a good timer" The
child realizes parties are meant for
good times. Mother wants to hear
she had a good time. She will
please her mother by telling her she
enjoyed herself. Perhaps her pleas
ure was not nearly so much as she
had hoped. Why bother mother by

to conduct the search.
Peter stepped outside. This was
the path Royce had taken, to get
from the sacristy TO the back door
of the study. Except for a few
shrubs, he noticed. there was no
place the knife might have been con-
cealed on this side of the church.
II was different at the back. There
was ample opportunity TO hide a

And Royce had had plenty of

the doorway. his restless eyes ex-
ploring every detail of the room.
The police search had been thor

saying sof Sometimes a child will
tell her mother she is getting along
all right In her studies, because this
is what her mother will like to hear.
She is reproved when the report card
shows low marks, or the teacher tells
her parents she wishes the child
would do better In classes. There
is a tinge of chagrin In the child's
mind that she has not done as we'll
as mother would wish, but also she
does not want to have her bothered
by hearing what she knows will be
unwelcome word.
Parents have to help their chill
dren to realize that what they actual
ly want to hear is the truth. They
have a part to do. They can
express a certain amount of sympa-
thy with a child when she is dlsap-
pointed and says so, and also relieve
the unhappiness by finding the pleas
ant features and getting them to
stand out In prominence. Parents
can also express so much pleasure
over the good marks of a child that
she or he is stimulated to do better
still. To be severe with a child who
is endeavoring to do well at school
and does not get the hoped for marks
Is inviting her to say what she knows
will please, even though later the
truth is known.

CHAPTER II

IL knife that killed Franklin. .
The group In the sacristy turned
startled glances In his direction.

Royce demanded.
Peter explained how 1t had been
hanging in Its scabbard, high on the
wall Of the study.
Sergeant Kilday, handling II care
fully by the scabbard, as Peter had
done In order not to mar any finger
prints there might be on the handle,
examined 1t infinitely.

he inquired of the rector.

Then, turning, he smiled signif-

Halt a dozen people? Perhaps

Kilday's tone was eager, but freight

Royce glanced slowly around the
room before replying, his eyes lin
gering, momentarily, on both Doc
tor Alternately and Ambrose Car

"Mr. Carmody here had some
words with Franklin In the study a
short time before the murder"
Carmody smiled briefly, as he
shrugged. 1t was evident that he
thought the statement beneath his
defense.
And your son, Mr.. Carmody,"
Nick Royce continued calmly. "Rylie
came back here and threatened Jim
Franklin a short time before the
