A flock of sheep well managed will
help eat the mortgage off the place.
The small fruit drier which can be
placed on the range is handy on the
farm.
Harvest time will tell the story as
to whether you did the spraying faith
fully in your orchard.
It is generally the poor cow which
the farmer is anxious to sell, re
member that when going to buy.
In putting the corn in the silo be
sure It Is laid down evenly and is
well packed. The keeping quality de
pends much on the way the work is
done.
It is never too late to plan for some
kind of system of rotation of crops.
It may be too late to do anything for
this year, but you need to think ahead
at least a year to get such a system
started right.
Prof. Burnett, Nebraska, and Prof.
Holden, Iowa, are both of the opin
ion that organization of farmers, prin
cipally for social and educational pur
poses, is one thing now most needed
in country life.
Fruit and poultry are two of the
greatest industries of the present age
and require but little capital to start
Begin in a small way and work up.
Be thankful if you have not a big

It is generally the man who goes slow
but sure who makes a success of the
business.
Pick a name for the farm, have it
neatly painted on a sign board and
place it in a conspicuous place in the
lane before the house. It will inter
est passersby, will identify your place,
and will prove a wonderful incentive
to you to spruce up a bit and make
the place look as good as the name
you have picked for it.
Pigs fd on skimmed milk do bet
ter than upon any other diet, whether
fed sweet or sour. Pigs seem to like
the sour rather than the sweet, and in
either case grain foods .should be fed
with it in order to make a balanced
ration. Skimmedmilk as a food for
all young animals is an aid to the
digestive organs, as there is not a par
ticle of it but is digestible.
In cultivating to preserve moist
ure the work should be done each
time as soon as there is an indication
that a crust is being formed It is
particularly desirable to cultivate aft
er each rain, as the packing by the
raindrops forms a hard crust. Some
times a light rain that penetrates the
soil for but the fraction of an inch
packs the soil so thoroughly that cap
illary tubes are formed, through which
the moisture in the soil is sent off
into the atmosphere.
Loss of curd from buttermilk can
be saved by straining through a very
fine meshed cheese cloth, or by add
ing a small quantity, about one-fourth,
sweet skim milk to three-fourths but
termilk. Let the mixture stand over
night at a temperature of about 60
degrees. Then heat the next morn
ing to about 120 degrees and let stand
for one hour. The skim milk curd
seems to collect the fine buttermilk
curd so that there is much less loss
during the straining process than is
the case when an attempt is made to
separate the buttermilk curd alone by
the cloth strainer.
Lime sulphur spray may be made
as follows: Good lump lime, 15
pounds; flowers of sulphur, 15
pounds; water, 50 gallons. To pre
pare this mixture, first slake the lime
in a small quantity of water, using
enough to keep the slaking lime thor
oughly wet. When the lime is pret
ty well slaked, put in the sulphur and
add as much, more water as is nec
essary to keep the whole of the con
sistency of thin cream. Put the ket
tle or the receptacle containing the
mixture over the fire and boil for 45
minutes, or until the liquid is of a
deep reddish brown color. Then, di
lute to 50 gallons, and apply at once.
If the mixture should become cold,
crystals will form and weaken the in
secticide for the destruction of the
lice and their eggs.
We repeat: Test your cows and
know what they are doing for you.
Dairying pays only when you have
profitable cows, and the only way you
can know this to a surety is by use
of the Babcock tester. The equipment
and process is comparatively simple.
Here are all the necessary things for
making the test:
One Babcock tester of size to suit the
herd. One dozen test bottles. One
milk test pipette (measuring 17.6 c.
c.) One dairy thermometer. One
quart bottle standard sulphuric acid.
Hot water. In making the test, keep
in mind the following rules:
(A) 17.6 cubic centimeters average
milk. (B) 17.6 sulphuric acid. Add the
latter carefully. If it is poured
through the'milk it will burn it; let it
run down theinside of the bottle. (C)
Shake thoroughly. (D) Put into the
tester and whirl five minutes. (E)
Add hot water until the liquid nses
well Into the neck of the bottle. (F)
Whirl again two minutes, and read
the percentage of fat at once. A pair
of fine dividers help greatly in con
venience of reading.
In order to make a balanced ration
with alfalfa ground corn and barley
should be fed, together with a little
wheat bran and linseed meal.
The high priced grain calls for the
economical cow, which is always and
ever the cow which gives a yield of
milk inrichness and quantity sufficient
to warrant keeping her on the farm.
Feed just enough so that It will be
eaten up clean. Left over food calls
rats around the coops and you know
what that means where there are lit
tle chicks.
Feed as much of the produce of the
farm to your own stock as you can.
In this way you turn back to the soil
the fertility and keep improving its
condition.
Experienced dairymen who have fed
silage would as soon think of dairy
ing without a hay crop as going with
out silage. Hay and silage are both
needed. Alfalfa hay makes an ideal
feed in conjunction with corn silage,
as it supplies the protein necessary for
the balanced ration.
Hot water applications will give re
lief from the pain caused by contact
with poison ivy. After the hot appli
cations wet trie poisoned portions over
with a strong solution of sulphite of
soda, adding some glycerine to keep it
from turning white when dry- Re
peat the operation when necessary.
The guccessful dairyman must bea
student of the task before him. He
must know his cows, know how to
care for them, know how to handle
their product, and know how to breed
for better stock. This of course he
cannot do unless he has the pure bred
bull to breed from. This Is one of the
prime requisites of the profitable
dairy farm.
It is argued by those who feed all
the corn the cattle ' will consume,
swine following at the same time in
the pastures, that the hogs will take
care of all that is not digested. It is
true that swine will gather all the
corn in the voidings, but it is also
true that cattle when fed very heavily
will consume and digest more food
than can be assimilated by the sys
tem, so that neither the animal to
which the grain is fed nor the swine
will get the full benefit of the same.
The grubs which often trouble the
cow are the larvae of the ox warble
fly (hypodermis lineata), and should
be squeezed out and destroyed; other
wise on entering the ground they will
emerge after a time in the shape of
flies to carry on their pestiferous
work. By applying fly extruders to the
backs of cattle in fly time and spong
ing the back of each animal with
strong salt water or solution of coal
tar dip in late fall and early winter
much of the trouble can be prevented.
Hogs pastured on rape do well. It
will pay farmers to investigate the
matter. The Wisconsin experiment
station has recently finished a series
of experiments and finds much to in
dicate the value of rape as a hog
feed. The conclusions are, that with
pigs from four to ten months old, rep
resenting the various breeds of swine,
an acre of rape, when properly grown,
has a feeding value, when combined
with a ration of corn and shorts,
equivalent to 2,436 pounds of a mix
ture of these grain feeds and a money
value of $19.40 per acre. That rape
is a better green feed for growing
pigs than good clover pasture, the pigs
fed upon the rape having made on the
average 100 pounds of gain on 33.5
pounds less grain than was required
by the pigs fed upon clover pasture.
That pigs are more thrifty, have bet
ter appetite and make corresponding
ly greater gains when supplied with
a rape pasture in conjunction with
their grain feed than when fed on
grain alone. That a plat of Dwarf
Essex forage rape when planted in
drills 30 inches apart, early in May,
in Wisconsin, will yield three good
crops of pasture forage in a favorable
season. That rape is the most satis
factory and cheapest green feed for
swine that we have fed. That every
feeder of hogs in Wisconsin should
plant each spring a small field of rape
adjoining his hog yard, and provido
himself with a few rods of movable
fence, to properly feed the rape to
brood sows and young pigs. That
rape should be sown for this purpose
in drills 30 inches apart to facilitate
the stirring of the ground and culti
vation after each successive growth
has been eaten off. 'That hogs should
not be turned upon a rape pasture
until the plants are at least 12 to 14
inches high and that they should be
prevented from rooting while in the
rape field. That rape is not a satis
factory feed when fed alone when it
is desi:ed to have any live weight
gain made in hogs, though it has been
found that they will just about main
tain themselves without loss of weight
on this feed alone.
One of the World's Great Rivers.
The Nelson river may be descrlbti
as one of the greatest rivers of the
world as regards the actual volume
of water discharged into the Hudson
bay. Its total length is approximate
ly 400 miles, and the drainage area is
tremendous. Its tributaries cover the
whole of Manitoba, tie greater por

Teneriffe!
What delightful memories crowd in
to my mind as I write the name of
that beauty spot In the Canaries, for
the recollection of the six weeks I
spent there win always be an abiding
one with me.
In campaigning one naturally ex
oects things to go awry, but when
loliday-making one demands that ev
erything shall go smoothly. Happily
'or me all did go well from the mo
nent I went by the London and
Morth-Western's famous 5:30 to Llv
2rpool, until I disembarked from the
steamer at Santa Cruz, where I was
oiet by my friend Adamson, repre
senting Messrs. Hamilton. Thus I
set foot on the Fortunate Islands of
'.he ancients, those isles whose
Deauty brought to them the name ap
olied originally to a land that was but
myth the Fortunate Islands, Is
lands of the Blest.or Happy Islands,
set in the western ocean, on
which the souls of the blest
were made happj'. And very glad
I was that jealousy of the charms
Df the place is not as great now as it
was when the men of the fleet of
Carthage, under Himilco. found them
so delightful, and described them in
such glowing language, that the sen
ate, fearing a general exodus from
Carthage, forbade any to visit the
Fortunate Islands on pain of death,
.lest, seeing them, many should be
tempted to stay on them.
Santa Cruz Itself is one of the most
delightful places in which anyone can
desire to spend a holiday, for it is
picturesque, full of handsome balcon
ies and quaint nooks and corners,
while the "view-towers" placed on the
roofs prevent uniformity in the ar
chitecture. This beautiful town has
been the capital of the Canaries
since 1821, and this year celebrates
its jubilee as a city.
The city contains many matters of
historical interest to the Englishman.
One of the most striking is undoubt
edly that connected with Nelson, who
attacked the city in July 1797. and
met with the only defeat recorded in
his career. Santa Cruz is remark
able, too, for the fact that it was
here that Nelson's arm was shattered
by a cannon-ball. Having anchored
some two miles off the town on July
24, he made a feint to draw the gar
rison away from the fort, and at mid
night some seven hundred men in
boats were directed against the Mole,
where they arrived within half a gun
shot before the enemy discovered
them.
Forty guns at once opened fire.
The cutter, containing some two hun
dred men and several boats, was sunk,
and many of the other boats were
dashed to pieces by the surf, which
was running high, as the men
jumped ashore. Nelson's arm was
shattered by a cannon-ball as he
stepped on the jetty, and he was car
ried back to his ship by the men.
In a glass case on each side of the
alt.tr in the parish church of the Con
ception may also be seen two flags

Work to Save Chicago Babies.
The United Charities of Chicago and
the city's health department have
joined forces for a summer campaign
to save the lives of babies. Maps have
been prepared showing where every
baby died last year, and the efforts of
500 workers who will be in the field
will be especially directed to these
districts. The progress through the
early part of the summer is expected
to be so effective that last August's
record of 719 deaths of babies under
two years of age will not be repeat
ed. The city will be mapped into 24
districts, each under the particular su
pervision of some organization. There
will be 21 free milk stations, numer
ous day nurseries and five tent hos
pitals for babies.
The Family Tie.
Not a great many years ago the
Family Tie wa3 regarded next to the
Bible. But borrowing from relatives
and employing them has so weakened
the Family Tie that it isn't held in
as high veneration as an old teapot
with the spout knocked off. Atchison

Happily for England's prestige, they
were not taken by the enemy. They

and were subsequently washed ashore

ties went on board and explained the
position to the captain. He at once
issued an order that the flags were
to be forthwith restored. This was
done, while the captain expressed
many regrets at the occurrence.
Close to the chapel in which the
flags are kept is another, over which
hangs a cross enclosed in a glass case
with a descriptive tablet beneath re
cording that: "Here is enclosed ths
cross placed by the conqueror of Ten
eriffe, Don Alonso Fernandez de Lugo
on the altar before which he cele
brated mass of the holy sacrament foi
the first time on the shore of Anazj
on the 3rd of May, 1494," Anaza is
the ancient name given by the urigi
na.1 inhabitants of the island to thi
portion of the shore on which Santa
Cruz stands.
Historical interest and beauty or
situation and climate are sooner or
later bound to pall on the holiday
maker, unless he is able to obtain
that material comfort in his tempor
ary habitation which gives him, as
the sawing is "A home from home." The
Grand hotel Quisiana is situated some
four hundred feet above the level ol
the sea, and commands a beautiful
view of the harbor, and of the famous
peak which is to the island almost
what Fuji is to Japan.
Charming as tho hotel and its ar
rangements are, there are, howpver,
certain improvements which might be
introduced. One of these is a lift,
Its absence is due to the fact that the
owner did not want to encourage the
presence of invalids, who would, oth
erwise, be tempted to patronize the
hotel on account of the excellence of
the cuisine, for he realized that
healthy people do not care to have
illness brought prominently to their
notice at all times. So great, how
ever, are the demands for greater
convenience that, I was told before
I left, it Is intended to extend the
hotel on a large scale, and to install
lifts, while bungalows will be erected
in the grounds for the accommodation
of invalids, who will not therefore mix
with the ordinary visitors. Another
drawback, which is, however, proof
of the popularity of the house, is that
the tourists who land at Santa Cruz
for the day and go to Quisisana foi
luncheon or dinner invariably find
that there is no room fdr them. When,
however, the hotel is extended, a new
dining-room is to be provided for
these visitors, while a large ball-room
is also to be added, together with
little suites of bed-rooms, dressing
rooms, and bath-rooms, the bed
rooms being built with balconies so
that it will be possible to sit on
them and enjoy the view, which Is a
never-failing source of delight, for the
harbor is as full of animation as the
land is full of plcturesqueness. Mel

Seek to Prevent Noise in Cities.
The German Society for the Preven
tion of Noise, which was founded in
1908 by Dr. Theodor Lessing. in Berlin,
has in preparation lists for distribu
tion among the people who rent houses
and apartments "which will contain in
formation as to rest-disturbing noises.
These lists will be printed on paper
of various colors. One color will con
tain the addresses of noiseless houses,
one where there is a little noise, and
still another where much noise may
be expected. It will soon become
known when a house Is classified with
the noisy ones and landlords will try
to improve conditions so that their
house may receive a good color."
Warfield's 'Stage Career.
David Warfleld was born in San
Francisco November 28, 1866, and
made his firet appearance on the stage
at Napa, Cal., in 1886, as Melter Moss,
in "The Ticket of Leave Man." He
first appeared In New York in 1890 in
a monologue at a concert hall. Mr
Warfleld married Miss Mary Gabrielle

A Pilgrim Rug Party.
A pilgrim rug party is the very
latest fad shades of our grandmoth
ers! Do you suppose under this dis
guise they would recognize the old
rag carpets which adorned every
room? Time has certainly turned
backward in its flight and the older
the fashion the newer, more up to date
it seems to be. The "hit-and-miss"
style of rug may somewhat resemble
the old rag carpet, but the exquisitely
woven ones of blue and white, green
and white and green and pink are
such artistic things that their relation
ship to the plebeian rag carpet is re
mote, save in the method of prepar
ing the materials. Only cotton fabrics
aru used, and as in the olden day, a
pound and a half ball weaves into a
rug of a square yard in size. Well,
now for the party. It was for a bride
elect, and the cards said "thimbles."
so we were prepared to sew. We
found piles of dark blue denim strips
cut into about an inch wide. These
were sewed together and wound into
a hard ball. Then there was a pile of
white strips before us was a com
pleted rug. By the time refreshments
were served the rags were sewed. The
cost of weaving is very small. The
bride-elect was delighted with this
new fashioned shower.
A Peach Luncheon.
This affair will be seasonable as
long as peaches are ripe and the
weather favorable, for the invitations
read "luncheon served on the lawn,"
but the hostess will make provision to
have the house decorated to give a
woodsy, outdoor effect should the day
prove inclement.
If the sun shines spread a round
table with a dainty cloth under a
canopy made from awning material
supported at the four corners by
stakes driven in the ground. Deco
rate this sylvan dining room with
Japanese lanterns and vines.
For the table centerpiece have a
pink enameled basket filled with
peaches and leaves; while facsimile
peaches done in water color will be
the place cards. Use gold or silver
ink for lettering the names.
Here is a very attractive menu and
withal easy to serve, a fact much
appreciated by the cook.
Tomato and herring canapes, jel
lied chicken, potato croquettes, olives,

served with brandied peaches, salted

New Idea
SEPARATE waists of an entirely
different color are no longer con
sidered fashionable, but they have
been so serviceable a part of woman's
wardrobe that it is almost impossible
to do without the blouse in some form
or another, so ingenious dressmakers
are endeavoring to disguise separate
bodices and make them look as if they
were part of the frock, while yet being
detachable and fit to wear with other
skirts.
For a linen skirt a charming blouse

the linen, of the same color as the

itan collar, which finds its echo in the
cuffs on the plain bishop sleeves. A
ribbon girdle with a knot of silk at the
side adds a note of color, as does the
large button at the fastening of the
blouse. The button is of the same
color as the belt.

Scarf Dresses the Fad.
Many of the handsomest evening
gowns have been fashioned from the
tinseled Syrian scarfs which may be
bought 'now in most department
stores for much less than the extra
vagant prices asked by the solemn
and crafty-eyed Egyptian nomads who
proffer these wares to summer-resort
visitors. In these days of narrow
skirts and sleeveless evening bodies
half a dozen of the scarfs should make
a very graceful dress, and one may
choose white tinseled with silver or
black wrought with gilt. The Egyptian
maids wore their scarfs, or yazraaks,
hanging straight from the shoulders
and confined about the hips by heavy
girdles. A stunning evening frock
along this idea was hung in surplice
fashion over a tunic of old gold chif
fon, and the girdle was of cloth of
gold sewn with jade-colored beads.
Another dress, made of black scarfs,
was draped about the figure in the
style of the Tanagra statues.
Cravat with Double Ends.
If you have a strip of brown silk,
taffeta or messaline, and a little tfilk in
6 a-
glass liqueres finished the repart,
with cups of French cbffee.
The hostess wore a common frock
of pink, with pale yellow trimmings,
which is a most Frenchy combination
if just the right shades are selected.
A Floral Card Party.
During the summer, whether at the
seashore or mountain, people arc apt
to keep in mind their special charity
(and every woman has one these
days). Card parties seem to be the
most popular way of making money,
and this, method has proved not only
pretty but successful. A floral card
party is carried out by giving prizes
of potted plants and keeping the score
with flowers, either carnations, roses
or some blossom that does not wilt
quickly.
Invitations are sent for a "floral
progressive card party" on cards cut
in the shape of a flower. Jonquils,
tulips, marguerites and roses lend
themselves admirably to the scheme.
To the winners pass vases containing
the score flowers. At the finish every
one will possess at least one or more
of the fragrant reminders of their
good luck.
The Ice cream may be molded in
floral shapes, and the small cakes orn
amented with candy roses, crystaiized
violets and rose leaves may be mixed
with the bonbons. Each guest is sup
posed to contribute 25 or 50 cents,
whichever sum is agreed upon, to the
charity for which the party is given.

next door. In the yard of the latter

and it was trying to walk. "You
shouldn't let it walk so young," ad

ORIGIN
Of a Famous Human Food.
The story of the great discoveries
or inventions is always of interest.
An active brain worker who found
himself hampered by lack of bodily
strength and vigor and could not carry
out the plans and enterprises he knew
how to conduct, was led to study va
rious foods and their effects upon the
human system. In other words, be
fore he could carry out his plans he
had to find a food that would carry
him along and renew his physical and
mental strength.
He knew that a food which was a
brain and nerve builder (rather than
a mere fat maker) was universally
needed. He knew that meat with the
average man does not accomplish the
desired results. He knew that the
soft gray substance in brain and
nerve centers is made from Albumen
and Phosphate of Potash obtained
from food. Then he started to solva
the problem.
Careful and extensive experiments
evolved Grape-Nuts, the now famou3
food. It contains the brain and nerve
building food elements in condition
for easy digestion.
The result of eating Grape-Nuts
daily is easily seen la a marked sturdi
nes and marked activity of the brain
and nervous system, making :t a
pleasure for one to carry on the daily
duties without fatigue or exhaustion.
Grape-Nuts food is in no sense, a
stimulant but is simply food which
renews and replaces the daily waste
of brain and nerves.
Its flavour is charming and being
fully and thoroughly cooked at the
factory it is served instantly with
cream.
The signature of the brain worke
spoken of, C. W. Post. Is to oe seen on
each genuine package of Grape-Nuts.
Look in pkgs. for the famous little
book. "The Road to Wellville."
There's a reason."
