FARM STOCK KEEP PRODUCERS INFORMED Farmers Advised to Study Market Reports In and Out of Season to Keep Posted.(Prepared by the JU.8.Department of Agrilulture.) How cnn the farmer und stock rals- er turn the llve stock reports of the bureau of markets, United States De- purtiment of Agriculture, into dollars is frequently asked.The answer is for the farmer to get so much information out of the reports that he can conduct his breeding, feediug and marketing operations a little more intelligently in the future, und therefore more profitably than In the past.Market reports ure history, und the chief value of history is the basis which it provides on which to forecast the future.In other words, what has happened (ln the pust will prob- ably oceur again under the same or, shnilur circumstances, Small benefit is generally derived from reading a single warket report, or one covering a short period of time.Markets move In cycles, und the man whe would keep Informed must follow them dlligently in season und out.This Is a mpatter of particular Hhupor- tance to the stockman, becuse his business 18, to an unusual degree, a long-time speculntion.He must prepare now and lay his plans today in light of what he thinks the market will be anywhere from six months to two years \u2018hence.But how will the department's reports assist him in doing this?First of all, he should take Into ac count potential supplies of the particular class of llve stock in which he is interested.Assume that cattle Is fils line.The monthly report, Stock at Stockyards, gives the number of cattle and calves marketed from month to month through 08 central markets, If such movements are unusually heavy for any considerauble time, it may indicate n cattle shortage during the next year or two, and a shortage of any commodity usually means higher prices, This same report also shows the number of cattle and calves that went back to the country as stockers and feeders, If such movements were exceptionally light, it would help to confirm the belief that a comparative shortage in eattle was Impending.On the other hand, heavy stocker and feeder shipments would go a long way toward neutralizing the importance of Market Reports Are Read With Much interest by Progressive Farmers.vhe heavy receipts, for the stockmen would know that most of these cattle xoing back to the country must be returned to market during the next few weeks or months and enter consump- \u2018lon channels.Having established In this fashion a broad basis for his operations, let us assume the stockman is feeding a lot of steers for the market.Te must now give market reports more careful and persistent attention than before, It is quite Important that he know what kind of cattle ave in best demand on the principal markets.If there Is a steady inquiry for heavy finletod enttle, and that kind are sell.Ing at 0 preminm over lighter welghts, it will probably pay him to \u201cfeed his cattle out,\u201d unless the cost of feed 1s exceptionnily high, If, however, consumptive demana seems to be drifting steadily toward lighter retail cuts of meat, or, because of genera business depression or sone auxe, la centering ehletly on the lower ated cheaper grades, he may find It more profitable to market his cattle at an carlier age and before they have attuined great weight, Abundant Information along this tne will be found both tn the lige tel market reports and the reports dealing with meat-teade conditions tn the Inrge consuming centers, Tu this connection the stockman will algo he interested in Keeping advised ns to whether the sluughter of meat is Incrensing or decrensing and wheth- Latin er the movement applies equally to all ; classes of meat, or whether slaughter af beef Is decreasing while that of sume other cltss ls increasing.This information Is obtainable from the statistical report covering the live stock aml ment situation, which is based on the federal meat-inspection reports of the bureau of animal in- , Vustry ad is also published mouftdy hy the burn of markets ttf WORK IS HARD ON ARTISTS Binging Into the Recording Horn Cen.ceded to Be a Nerve-Racking Experience.Music is a lot trickler to can than peaches or peurs, remarks Farm and Fireside, When you pluy one of your phonograph records you have no idea how hard it may have been to get that melody \u201cpreserved.\u201d You are listening to the result of a lot of mighty hard work, which may have included con- ¢lderable storming by the director and teurs on the part of the artist.Some artists simply cannot sing for the records at all, while others are nervous wrecks for days after a session of recording, To sing Into a recording horn may look easy\u2014just as it may look easy for a baseball player to hit a ball over the fence for a home run\u2014but in reality it is one of the most diff cuit, nerve-racking things anyone can uttempt, On the concert stage a singer with a good voice may make little mis- tukes without the audience noticing them.If he nas an attractive presence and an engaging manner, he may even sing a bit off key and yet make a hit.But the wax master record is a relentless mirror, with no mercy for the imperfections that the average art- ist-\u2014ilke other human belngs\u2014is guilty of.The slightest waver or strain In the voice, the slightest deviation from the true pitch, comes out badly.And the very fear of making these mistakes and flaws \u201choodoo\u201d most singers into making them.The result Is that many a popular \\stage artist has met defeat In the \u201claboratory, WAR ON SCREW-WORM FLIES | Traps Have Proved Effective Methods of Getting Rid of Human and Animal Pests.The use of flytraps for catching screw-worm flies Is a new ldea as a , means of combating those abominable i insects, and has already proved decidedly effective.They are a first- class pest in some parts of this country, and wespeclally In southwest Texas.Cattle and other livestock suffer much from thelr attacks, thetr habit being to lay eggs In uny sort of wound.The larvae hatched from the eggs | bore into the tissues, feeding upon | them and doing most destructive mis- chlef.When ready to transform into | pupne, they come out, drop to the | ground and bury themselves to await | metamorphosts into flles.The screw- | worm flles are typical meat flies, and \"the enreass of any dend animal quickly becomes a hatchery for them.Hence, in the region uffilcted by them, fit Is very fmportant that nll carcasses shall be promptly destroyed, preferably \"by burning.Occasionally it happens that human belugs are attacked, A fly crawls up the nostrils of a sleep- \"ing person and lays its eggs.The \"larvae hatched from them Invade the sinuses, and death Is likely to result.\u2014MIilwaukee Sentinel, Squirrels and Robins Fight.A fiepee lawn battle between forces lof squirrels and robins has been observed in Mount

of honor, even among horses.We are apt to think of the war horse as a proud animal, and so he 18, and hus a right to be, for he is called upon te be as brave us he is proud.But proudest and most dignl- fled of all horses of the army is the animal that ie called upon to fill the position of drum-horse in the regimental band.In the American and British armies cavalry bands are mounted, and the most honorable position in all the band is that of the bearer of the kettledrums.The horse Is selected for hls distinguished appearance.He is often plebald, altho sometimes pure white.Something more than mere beauty of form is required of the drum-horse, He must be trained until he becomes a dignified and graceful bearer of the handsome trappings that pertain to his high calling.His education 1s severe and prolonged bringing him up to that point where his pride and intelligence make him equal to the duties required of him, He is severely tried by the booming of the large drums he carries, but in time he becomes Indifferent to their noise.In the parade, his rider has his hands full in the use of the sticks; he controls the horse by means of reins fastened to the stirrup-strap near the foot.\u2014Christian Sclence Monitor.USED BAMBOO TO MAKE CLOCK Remarkable Work of Italian Considered Weli Worth the Money He Asks for It.An eight-day clock whittled out of bamboo by Constanzo Renzi, of Rome, and valued at $50,000, is on exhibition in the Jewelry and silverware division on the fourth floor of the Bush Terminal sales building, says the New York Times.Two yeurs were required to make the clock, which is made entirely of bambuo with the exception of the leaden weight and two small glasses which serve as gongs.The clock, with its complicated bamboo mechanism suggesting a miniature steel skyscraper in course of construction, stands about 7% feet high.At any time by looking at it one can tell the hour, minute and second, the day of the week and the month of the yenr, as well as the phases of the moon.The clock strikes the hours and quarter-hours, a cane mallet forced by a cane spring striking two goblets which serve as bells.The chimes are regulated to indicate the time to those who cannot see the clock.At noon, if desired, a small flag 18 raised, the ralsing being preceded by a whistle from a bamboo tube, and one minute after the noon hour a cannon at the top of the clock is discharged.Saw the Six Hundred Ride to Death.Willinm Richardson, a Crimean war veteran and an eye witness to the charge of the Light brigade at Balaklava, died here recently, aged ninety

The care of growing chicks, especially during warm weather, is most im portant, say specialists of the United States Department of Agriculture, Every boy or girl member of a poultry club should give them the best of attention If success is to be had.The baby chicks may be smart llttle fellows from strong, vigorous parent stock, and they may have been brooded carefully for the first two or three weeks, but unless they receive proper care and management during their later growing period they will pot develop properly, and many of them will be lost through disease or sickness, The chief essentials to proper growth are good coops or houses, cleanliness, proper feed and water, shade, and free range.Every coop or poultry house used for growing chicks should be kept clean at all times.Sickness or disease starts usually in unclean quarters, and in such places lice and mites are al- Young Incubator Chicks Allowed to Run Out on Government Farm at Beltsville.ways more plentiful.Coops and houses should be cleaned and sprayed once a week, and clean shavings, chaff, or sand put on the floor.Examine the chicks and houses often for lice and mites, and 1f found they should be got rid of at once by following the directions in Department Circular 16, Lice, Mites and Cleanliness, which may be had, free, upon application to the division of publications.United States Department of Agriculture, A variety of feeds, with fresh, clean water, is necessary if chicks are to grow properly, Perhaps the three most necessary for rapld growth are grain feed, green feed and dry mash, Poultry specialists of the department say that in addition to the green feed and dry mash, which should be provided regularly, a grain mixture should be fed night and morning, glv- ing as large a quantity as the chicks will eat clean, but no more.A good grain mixture for growing chicks consists of three parts cracked corn, two parts wheat, and two parts hulled oats.When available, kafir or rolled or hulled barley may be substituted for hulled oats.In localities where hulled oats, kafir, or rolled barley cannot be obtalmed, or are too expensive, a mixture of cracked corn and wheat only may be fed until the chicks are old enough to eat whole oats, when two parts may be added to the corn and wheat mixture.A reasonable supply of fresh green feed Is almost as necessary as graln for growing chicks, If allowed liberty they will get much of it for themselves, but if confined, or if in quarters where green feed is not abundant, it should be supplied regularly.Lawn grass, beet tops, cabbage and lettuce are excellent feeds.When chicks are confined to brood coops with runs, they should be placed on ground where the grass is green and tender, and as fast as it is eaten off, the coop and run should be moved to a place where the grass is plentiful, In addition to green feeds and grain, dry mash should be kept before growing chicks at all times after they are three or four weeks old.It is best to feed it in & hopper Inside the bulld- ing, or where it will not be exposed to raln or wet.Here is a good dry mash mixture: Two pounds corn meal, twc pounds middlings, one pound oatmeal, two pounds wheat bran, one pound beef scrap and one-fourth pound charcoal.Grit and oyster shell also should be provided.SMALL FLOCK IN BACK YARD Two Hens for Each Member of Family Are Recommended as Best by Poultry Specialists, The average novice can reasonably expect to get an average of at least 10 dozen eggs per hen per year from his small flock in the back yard.On the basis of two hens to each member of the family this will give 20 dozen cgus a year to ench person, which awount is about halfway between the average of farm and city consumption.No backyard poultry keeper should be satisfied with less than this, say poultry specialists of the United States Department of Agriculture, Every backyard poultry keeper should try to get as much more as possible, To provide an egg a day for each perron, two hens would have to Iny 183 cggs each a year.FOOD FOR SPIRITS Young Children Considered Dainties in West Africa.So When Great Man Dies, the Little Ones, With Slaves, Are Killed and Buried With Him, Some strange superstitions of West African negroes are described by P.L.Tengely in the London Daily Mail.If he will, the juju man (witch doctor) of West Africa can tell you that when a man dles his spirit, or spirits, will remain behind and wander about the earth while he will \u201cgo away.\u201d It 18 not clear what is meant by \u201che\u201d as distinct from his spirits, or where \u201che\u201d goes when he does \u201cgo away,\u201d but obviously it is to a place where, if he be u big chief, he will want servants to serve him, and therefore when he dies slaves are killed, and also young children.But these latter are killed tor another purpose, as the following remarks will show.* These wandering spirits are of two kinds\u2014good, or at least harmless, called \u201cDupples,\u201d and evil ones, known as \u201cJumbis.\u201d \u201cDuppies,\u201d the juju man will tell you, can be seen in various forms.There used to be a resthouse on a beach in southern Nigeria which fell into disuse because, as many white men used to know, queer black forms, sometimes like monkeys, used to run about the veranda and the rooms at night making weird noises.They did no harm, being, as every native knew, only \u201cdupples.\u201d The \u201cJumbi,\u201d however, is a terrible thing\u2014so awful that whoever sees one goes nad.His home is in the silk-cotton, or ceba tree, and he kills the person who cuts one down, Blacks of educated West Indian descent witl never cut down a silk-cotton tree.\u201cJumbis\u201d eat dead bodies, preferring those of children, though there is nothing they like better than rice, Hence when a man or woman dies a quantity of rice is placed near the grave under a cover resembling a candle extinguisher, only with holes in the sides, The object of the holes is to enable the thin, hungry \u201cjumbi\u201d to enter the receptacle, where he gorges himself until he ts too fat to get out again, A fresh supply of rice is daily placed under the dome to make up for what the \u201cjumbis\u201d have eaten.(There are lots of rats and ground pigs in West Africa.) The process is kept up until the ninth day, when a \u201cwake\u201d Is held, and the \u201cjumbis\u201d are driven away by noise and fee-ack (native maglc).That Is ohe way of keeping the \u201cjum- bis\u201d from the dead.But if a great man dies he has another chance of being undisturbed ; for then young children are killed, aud the \u201cjumbl\u201d eats them rather than the old person.Many years ago, when King Take died, the then governor, in the hope of preventing any secret slaughter, ordered that he should have a grand funeral, \u201cwhite man fashion.\u201d It was a great day for the natives, several white officials attending the burlal in the center of the royal compound, where, by order, they remained until the grave was filled up.But despite these precautions, at dead of night the juju priests had thelr innings.Take was dug up and reburied In native fashlon together with his slaves and several children.\u201cWhy Southpaws.\u201d The word \u201csouthpaw,\u201d used frequently in the course of references to baseball games, is a bit of slang which which has crept Into the language during the last few years\u2014a colloquiallsm which has behind it rather more of a logical pedigree than most slang words can claim.Thut the batter may not have to face the rays of the setting sun at any time of the year, a baseball din- mond is usually lald out so that the batter's box faces due east.The pitcher, therefore, faces westward, while his right hand is toward the north and his left hand is toward the south.As the majority of pitchers are right-handed, it was only natural that an exception to this rule should he singled out for a certain specific title\u2014and the name \u201csouthpaw\u201d was adopted on account of the usual points of the compass in connection with the diamond Itself.The ecceu- tricities of Rube Waddell and other \u201csouthpaws\u201d have made the name synonymous with \u201cerratic,\u201d so far as baseball language fs concerned, though there 1s no medical support for the theory that left-handed persons are more pecullar than those who use their right hands.Aerial Time Tables.So important has become commercial aviation in France that there is being published a monthly time table of all the air services operating In France and allied countries.This time table, known as IL\u2019Indicateur Aerien, gives such Information as the time of departure and arrival, routes, type of plane employed, weight of luggage allowed, rates, and so on.The little publication appears on the first of every month.\u2014Sclentific American.Call for Much Sheif Room.Five miles of shelving will be erected in a new hullding heing constructed by the French government, for the filing of more than 100,000 volumes and almost as many pamphlets, ete.which they have collected.The collection of manuscripts, photographs and war records {s appalling as to numbers, and there seems to he no limit to the gifts of collectors, ministry of public instruction.REVIVAL OF CLASSIC GREEK Western Newspaper Welcomes Pos sibility of Its Beqming, in Time, a World Language, Were one to judge from the fuss made from time to time, one would suppose there was real need of an international language.In the golden age of the English language the great queen addressed the ambassador at her court in Latin, and all diplomatic conversation and correspondence of Europe was in Latin, Erasmus, the great scholar and writer, who visited the court of Elizabeth's father, Henry VII, wrote Latin works that produced an effect comparable to that produced by the writings of Voltaire two centuries later.\u2019 Much pains have been expended in fabricating artificial language, such as Esperanto, to serve as the medium of communicatien.But such construe- tions have no chuiice v£ practical adoptions nor could they answer as well as actual language whether dead lke Latin or living like English.There is a language, however, which is gradually becoming again a living one, and which as a world language would be ideal.The Greek unl- versities and Greek men of culture, including Venizelos hlmself, are engaged in an attempt to restore classical purity and perfection to modern Greek.1t 1s sald that the endeavor is by no means vain, and that gradually the ancient model is being approached.We may yet have the speech of Pericles, the written language of Plato, employed in social intercourse and commercial transactions, fn contracts, in courts of law, in houses of assembly.\u2014Minneapolls Journal.ALWAYS A WELCOME VISITOR Occasionally Late, but Once Every Month She Was at the Door to Receive Him.She waited patiently for his arrival, feeling that he wouldn't disappoint her.Sometimes he was a little early -\u2014sometimes a little late, but eventually he would come, bringing with him something dear to her heart.Once every month for four years he had been a welcome visitor.How well she knew his volce\u2014his smile\u2014 his cheery whistle!

EFFICIENCY In the United States, last week was Better Speech Week, which was taken seriously by some and as a joke by others.lt would be impossible for the writer Lo pote as a purist, but no one who thinks at all can be blind to the modern carclessness in speech, which affects a lot of people who are \u2018\u2018well educated,\u201d according to the common couception of that term.To us the abuse of certain words is wore objectionable than the mauy \u201cslips of speech\u201d which distress the purists.We rather like some of the short cute of the Americans, and are not opposgd to a reasonable amount of slang in ordinary conversation, but our verves are sometimes upset by such an expression au \u2018\u201c\u2018paiufuliy efficient,\u201d which we heard for the first time a few days ago.The pereon referred to was an office woman, who could do almost any kind of work, and do it well.She uever had to buy clothes.When she wanted something Lo wear she went out and got a piece of cloth; a few hours Inter she bad a new gar- ment\u2014*\u2018and it was not thrown together; it was faultless.\u201d That ia what we would call super-efliciency.We bave heard such expressions as \u201cpainfully precise,\u201d and \u201cpainfully exact,\u201d when we could sympathize with them, but \u201cpainful efliciency?\u201d is beyond our understanding.We have known hundreds of painfully inefli- cient people but never a one who was painfully efficient.The misuse of the word italicized is just a matter of carelessness.Bimplicity, as a rule, is a sale guide to (ollow, but whatever may be said on the eubject, individuality is quite as desirable as exactness.If people were all schooled by the same master, in the same manner, they might all speak so nearly alike and with such \u201cpainful\u201d precision that their personality would be lost.It would take a great deal Lo compensate for the quaint vocabularies of some men we have known.IS PROHIBITION A FAILURE?In another column \u201cReader\u201d quutes figures from the National Advocate to show the decline ot drunkenness, the lessening of arrests, relief from pauperism, and increase in bank deposits since the advent of prohibition in the United States.The active propaganda of the liquor interests make these references necessary.Newspapers in the United States may not publish liquor advertisements, but those whose space is available to the liquor party do not lack for patronage because of the effort to discredit prohibition and keep alive the always smouldering embers ot the liquor traflic.The publicity department of the liquor interests has never been closed, and a lot of weak- Kneed temperance(?) people help to spread ite propaganda.During the no-license campaigns in this section speakers and writers frequently stated that they did not expect to annihilate the liquor traffiz, but hoped to materially lesson its evils, and any fair- minded person must admit that ite evils were greatly lessened.Yet after such an affair as the assault upon OI- ticer Clark the other night, people were not lacking to advance the claim that conditions would be better under license.Une thing that made the affair of October 29 so conspicuous was its isolation.Damaged heads were taken ap a matter of course in license days, but it is different now.The particular reason why officers did not get mauled in the old days is because they never interfered with the drink \u2018*\u2018traffic,\u201d which was then be- youd their province.No man who gives any honest thought to the sub- jent could possibly believe that condi- tious would uow be better with the real source of the trouble legalized in the community.They would be iu- finitely worse.But maybe we would again becomes so necustomed to drunks and brawls that our nervous wystems would be less shocked by such an at- fair as occarred here on Auguet 29 The statement of the Salvation Army officer regarding increased bank de- posite under prohibition, could be duplicated right here since the advent of no-license, indifferentiy aa it was enforced at oue time.MARLINGTON Mr.and Mra.Frank Leney moved to lines\u2019 Corner, Among the boys who have returned from the West are Ketuneth Lee, Chel- Us Bacon and Almond Bullock, Miss Doris Reed is at the home of her father, Mr.R M.Reed.Mr.W.B.Bullock was at Beebe on bustness Thursday.Mre.A.Hamilton is at Rock Island.Mrs.T.A.Woolla ia at Beebe.Misa Margaret Woolls was at home over the week-end.Mr.T.A.Woolls and son Aubrey, and daughter were at Rock Island Monday wight have EFFECTS OF PROHIBITION Arrests Greatly Decreased in U.8.Cities\u2014 Alms Houses Closed\u2014Bank Deposits Grow.To the Editor: SIR,\u2014Having read articles in several newspapers asserting that probi- bition does not probipit, I would like to refer to prominent authorities in various states, which offer conclusive proof that prohibition is prohibiting.The decreasad numbers of arrests for cities, where it has been hardest to enforce the law, are some of the ef- tects of prohibition.Take only three cities from the report of former Federal Prohibition Commissioner J.H.Kramer: Ib Boston the drop was from 88,000, round numbers, in 1919, to 47,000 in 1920; in Detroit, from 19,000 in 1917, to 6,000 this year.Baitimore had 3992 less in 1919 than in 1918, or 275 less a day for the last six months of tbat year.These figures are given in the August issue of the National Advocate.The Counecticut and Obio state farms were closed, the former in nine weeks after the new law went into effect, because prohibition killed the workhouse trade.Volumes might be written of the augmented school attendance, relief of countless homes from degradation and poverty, Increasing bank accounts of men who formerly sought for shelter from Salvation Army hostels, which brings to my mind one 8.A, officer, Licutenant- Colonel Marcusses of Chicago, who said at least three hundred of the men who have stopped coming to the hostel, now have checking accounts in the bank, and he does not kuow how many have bank accounts.Before prohibition the 675 bede in the hostel were always in demand by guests who had littte or no money.READER.THE WAY'S MILLS HALL MR.Entror: We notice a couple of items written in the last two JOURNALS about the Union Hall.It doesn\u2019t make any difference what is written or bow much, the fact remains that the hall is closed to dauces just because it is paid for and they don\u2019t want the money eo badly.One correspondent either has not attended the dances until the past six months or has been very much misinformed for there has hardly been a time since the hall was built but that there has been whiskey at the social functions as well us dances.The people who put up teams in the blacksmith shop and peighboring barns always left their \u2018empties\u2019 and there were as many \u2018\u2018empties\u2019\u201d\u2019 after à play as after any dance.At the chicken pie supper a good crowd was in attendance but on a lawn near the hall the next morning were found two empty bottles and stoppers from beer bottles.This seems strange for you would naturally per would be bones, but we have no doubt that this was not known to the their own businees knew what was going on outside at the dances.any reason wh should be c the Methodist church ed because whiskey winter a crowd from outside came here and passed around the \u2018\u2018booze\u201d not only outside the hall but inside.months ago that the Union Hall people got up a dance and card party to raise money for the halland employed an outside orchestra that was eo drunk they couldn\u2019t half play, and it was also more than six months ago that the same club got up a dance and card and they also sold beer; it was not so atrong an is sold now, but the strongest that could be gotten at that time.Now, it is all very well to blame booze for this affair, but who is to blame for booze being brought to town?Who made the law if it is not the temper- drunkenness and crime in the great thiok the fruits of a chicken pie sup- people inside the hall any more than the dancers who were inside minding Is this was drunk at their chicken pie supper?| Or should the moving pictures be y barred from coming here because last We aleo think it was more than six;

it was expected.Since that time Dr.Josepb Boulay of Eastman has been chosen in place of Mr.Archambault.The dance in Merrill\u2019s Hall, Fitch Bay, on the evening of Nov.10, was in the form of a box

candidate, has been holding meetings in St.Her- menegilde, North Barford, Stanhope, and other points in the south-eastern section of the county, where he is eaid to bave received an enthusiastic welcome, which is taken as an indication of the unanimity of the spirit of Liberalism now prevailing.Mr.Baldwin is apparently not a free-trade Liberal, but has championed the cause of farmers in the House.For one thing, he has been trying to get the smaller parts of agricultural machinery standardized so that bolts, screws, sections, guards, pitmans, etc., made for any particular machine, would fit all others.This, Mr.Baldwin claims, could be accomplished by manufacturers with no more inconvenience than the standardizing of prices, and would save farmers large expense and much inconvenience.Monday night Mr.Baldwin spoke at a woman\u2019 meeting in Coaticook, In connection with the Progressive- Farmer movement, it was but natural that the name ot Mr.Eugene O.Baldwin of Coaticook should come up.Mr.Baldwin had spoken at meetings outside of Stanstead county and was looked upon as the natural leader here, consequently after Mr.W.K.Baldwin, M.P., had again been chosen by the Liberals and Mr.P.L.Baldwin had been made the choice of the Conservatives, Mr.Eugene O.Baldwin was suggested as a third candidate to carry the Progressive-Farmer banner.Tuesday the JOURNAL received from Coaticook a private letter in which it was stated that while the last named gentleman was opposed to the Meighen government he apparently did not think the present an opportune time to undertake the organization of a Progressive party in Stan- stead county.But it would not be surprising if Eugene O.Baldwin were heard from in eome future campaign.He is one of the few men who have the ability to make good use of inherited wealth.Some years ago he turned his attention to purebred cattle.He bought two good-sized farms near Coaticook, joined them, and erected the finest barn in the county.His enterprise has been an inspiration to many farmers in that section.Mr.Eugene O.Baldwin bas the right to claim to be an Independent, baving voted \u2018\u2018both ways,\u201d It ie understood that he was a supporter of the Union cause in the general elections of 1917.BARNSTON DEFERRED Women ot Barnston Townsbip!

The total cost of milk delivered to the consumer's door in Columbus, O., during the first six months of 1020, ranged from 11.3 cents up to 15,8 cents per quart, if the costs of one company which does business in \u201ccertified\u201d milk are omitted, according to the figures recently announced by the United States Department of Agriculture, The cost of the raw mllk delivered at the dairy ranged from 8.7 cents to 10 cents per quart.The tutal cost of operating the dairy plant, Including the pasteurizing and bottling of the milk, ranged from 1 cent to 1.4 ceuts per quart, and the cost of delivering the milk from the dairy to the cousumer ranged from 1.61 cents to 3.9 cents per quart.The ftem of administrative expense varles widely, being us low as two- tenths of a cent per quart for one small company and as high as 1 cent per quart for a large concern.Two of the seven companies covered were small concerns which produced thelr own milk supply.The cost of producing the milk for these companies In 1020 was 8.9 cents per quart, which is very similar to the price pald for milk by the larger concerns.One of the items of cost which has attracted most attention among students of the milk business Is the so- called \u201cbottle loss.\u201d The department's study Indicates that for the companles covered in Columbus this item ranges from one-tenth to two- tenths of a cent per quart.Great difficulty was experienced in getting any satisfactory Information concerning the shrinkage which takes place in the handiing and delivery of milk, but according to the best data avallable this Item amounts to between 2.3 per cent and 5.5 per cent of the total volume of milk, Columbus is a city of 247,031 population, which {8 reported to consume about 27,000,000 quarts of milk per an.num, This milk is supplied by over 2,000 producers, from 15 different counties, and Is transported to Columbus from a territory having a radius of Conditions appear to be 5 miles.Keeping Account of

of milk and cream in 1920, or approximately 65 per cent of the total quantity consumed.The companies ranged in size from a very small one- wagon concern up to the largest, which operated 40 milk routes, From the point of view of the farmer and the consumer, the Important question fs, What does it cost to ban- dle the milk from the farm to the consumer?The cost of raw milk was between 63 per cent and 75 per cent of the total cost of the milk as It reaches the consumer.| During the period under study the retail price of Grade A milk in Columbus, as quoted by the dealers in- vestignted, ranged from 15 cents to 14.5 cents per quart, though during 1020 the two small dealers sold thelr milk, which comes from tuberculin- tested cows, for 15 cents per quart.At the same time the wholesale price of milk ranged from 12 cents to 121% cents, The average number of customers per route in 1920 ranged from 109 to 207, and the number of quarts per wagon ranged from 178 to 378, the average being 262.It is noteworthy that the most profitable company was the one having the largest average wagonload.TEACH YOUNG BULL TO LEAD Calf Can Be Halter Broken With Little Effort If Taken in Hand at Right

they seem in a fair way to help solve our housing problems.At least they did so in a Westchester town not long ago.The scene\u2014the movie scene, that is \u2014wus a Belgian village, and with the accustomed profligacy of the picture producers the entire village must needs be built.The intent and purpose of the director was to build the houses of board and papier-mache, and then destroy them all when the picture wns completed.Certain residents of the town, however, were pussessed with foresight, says the New York Sun.The township was suffering from building restriction, and some one figured that tre movie men could buld their village of slightly more substantial material at a comparatively little increased cost.The proposition was put to the director, who agreed to let the town supply him with materials and Inhor on a proportionate basis, As a result the town has added nearly twenty new houses and twenty new furuilles have moved in, paying the township only slightly more than the property was worth.The township taxes the houses, the housing situation Is relleved, the mo+ie men have vanished and everybody is happy.TO RESTORE WORLD WONDER Mexican Government Will Remove Debris Covering Great Pyramids of the Sun and Moon.Not only are the two great pyra- mlds, those of the sun and the moon, situated near San Juan de Teotihua- cun, Mex., to be restored to thelr original lines, but the Mexican govern- went has wade an appropriation for excavating and reconstructing the rulns of the great buried clty surrounding the pyramids, which flourished more than 4,000 years ago.During the last four years Immediately preceding the revolutionary period, considerable work had been done in the matter of clearing away the accumulation of debris that covered the pyramid of the sun, and It stands forth today as one of the greatest wonders of the world, according to archeologists.This pyramid is three times as large us the great Cheops pyramid near Cairo, Egypt, and in its construe- tlon glant blocks of stone were used.It is 1,400 feet square at the bottom.In height 1t 14 only 200 feet, and but for this fact would be one of the most imposing structures ever made by man, it is stated.The pyramid of the sun iy smuller than the one of the nioon.Paying Fines As You Go, Some useful things have occasionally come out of the turmoll in Central Europe.One of the best plans of which we have heard is a new fining system which is used in Prague.The police carry receipts for fines for varlous sums In their pockets, and present them for immediate payment to hilurious citizens who break the peace by singing or playing on musical instruments on the streets at the wrong time, or where the volume of harmony is ton great.This tends to allow the citizens of this old city to get some much needed rest, This sys tem has worked so well and has become 80 popular that it was extended to traffic violations ag well.It would certainly be a great convenlence if we could adjusc minor Infractions such ns a smoking automobile, or failure to keep automobile lamps lighted, without having recourse to the police or traffic courts.\u2014Sclentific American.New Zealand Pageant Lesson.The

.Needless to say, the story did not It ran the length and breadth of Prussia, and other natlons also laughed.Up-to-Date Barges.It is a far cry from the Erle canal to the present barge canal of New York state, and just as far from the mule-hauled canal boat to the latest type of self-propelled barges which were recently built to run on the barge canal.These barges, five in number, were built in Duluth, and will be propelled by 140-brake-horsepower direct reversible Diesel engines.They are 20 feet long, 36-foot beam, 10-foot draft, with a displacement of 2,150 tons each.Besides being self-proy pelled they are all thoroughly equipped with clectric auxiliaries, having electric hydraulic steering gear, electric anchor windlasses, and electric capstan.They are all electrically lighted, the electricity for the various purposes for which it is used being provided on each barge by three 10-kilo- watt generators, driven by na 15-horse- power Deisel engine.The cargo ca- pacitics range from 1,500 to 1,750 tons each, which, to any one who remembers the old canul boats, will give an fden of the type of trafic to be expected on the canal.Somewhat Over-Particular.Some of the British miners\u2019 familles were very particular during the coal striRe.In a certain mining village of North Ayrshire, where the strikers\u2019 children were being fed by the subscriptions which their parents extorted from the rest of the community, It was found that at the midday meal about 70 per cent of the children refused tu take the scup which was offered to them, saying that they preferred bread or tea.The authorities, realizing that they were catering for a very exacting clientele, knew better than to take offense nt this rebuff and announced that tea would be served at § o'clock, whereupon one starving child ex- claïmed: \u201cThat's nae guid tae me: ma music lesson's at fivel\u201d ee Cat Mothers Rabbit.An Interesting case of adoption has vecurred on à farm in the humble district of Enst Lothlan, Scotland.A cat, whose Kittens had been given away as they were old enough to be removed from the mother, has adopted a young wiid rabbit, which she tends and nurses with great care and affection.The cat was in the habit of killing and bringing in young rabbits to feed Its kittens, and it is remarkable that she now should show maternal affection towards an animal which hitherto she has regarded as prey.AMERICAN CLASS OF FOWLS IS POPULAR Good Egg Producers and Meat Well Suited for Table.In Size They Are Intermediate Be tween Small and Large Breeds and Are Fairly Good Foragers\u2014 They Make Good Mothers.(Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) In the American class of poultry are found the Plymouth Rock, Wyandotte, Java, Dominique, Rhode Island Red and Buckeye.The fowls of these breeds are commonly called general-purpose fowls, because they are not only good egg producers, but their carcasses are also well sulted for the table.They are therefore the best breeds for the general furm flocks of chickens, say poultry speclalists nf the United States Splendid Barsad Plymouth Rock Pullet.Department of Agriculture.They are In good favor, too, with the poultry packers on account of their table qualities.All the American breeds lay brown- shelled eggs.They all have yellow skins, and shanks free from feathers, which are desirable qualities for table fowl In this country.In size they are intermediate between the smaller egg breeds, such as the Leghorns, and the larger meat breeds, such as the Brahmas, In temperament they are also intermediate, being less active than the egg breeds, but more so than the meat breeds.They are fairly good foragers.The American-class birds mature earller than the meat breeds, hut not so quickly as the egg breeds, They.are setters and make good mothers, SAVE BEST OF GARDEN SEED Cloth Bags Are Best Containers for Large Seeds\u2014Correct Labeling |s Important.Seeds which have been grown and curefully saved should be well labeled and stored or all the previous labor goes for nothing, say experts of the United States Department of Agriculture.Cloth bags are the best contaln- ers for large seeds, such as peas, beans and corn.They should be used also for larger quantities of small seeds, but for smaller lots paper envelopes, made at home or purchased, are fairly satls- factory, but usually are not gummed so as to close completely, and if handled carelessly small seeds may sift out of them.Correct labeling is of paramount importance.Every envelope or container should show the kind and variety of seed, the date, including month and year when harvested, and the place where grown.For the cloth bags à slip of paper bearing all this information should be inserted with the seed.It Is very convenient alse to have n tag on the outside of the bag, but on no account should the inner label be omitted, because of the Habllity of loss of the outside taf, LIGHT SOIL FOR \"FARMSTEAD Ground Occupied by Farm Buildings May Be Poorest Kind\u2014Sandy Soils Are Excellent.The garden, lawn, orchard and wind-break, constituting a considerable portion of the farmstead, require good and preferably light soll, while the ground occupled by the farm buildings may be the poorest land on | the farm.Not infrequently the two kinds of soll may be found within the farmstead area, but it Is better to sacrifice a little crop-producing iand for the bulldings than to handicap the garden or orchard with poor soll.Sandy or gravelly rolls are excellent for general farmstead purposes, as they nre favorable for plant growth and drain rapidiy\u2014very desirable qualities.SCATTER MANURE ON FIELDS Good Plan to Permit Sun to Kill Maggot Stage of Fliea\u2014Stack Straw in Neat Piles.Keep barnyard manure, especially it containing straw, cleaned up and scattered on the fields to permit the aun and drying to kill the maggot stage of the flies, Stack the straw} don't blow It out In an irregular loose pile.Build vertical sides.Keep middle well filled and tramp well.Clean up around hase of stacks and scatter remunnts, If it ts certain that the straw.will not be used for feed, apread it at.once, to be plowed under, Pain is an Indication | of interference with the normal functions of the body.It is a sign of trouble, and if allowed to continue, causes iteelf | still further disorders.Common Sense and humanity agree that relief from pain should be the first step in the trcatment of any disease which is present.Headache, Neuralgia, Rheumatic, Backache, Sciatic and Ovarian Pains, ONE | or TWO | Dr.Miles\u2019 Anti-Pain Pills and the pain is gone.Guaranteed Safe and Sure.Price 30c, GAIN PS LUE | xe ET TZ TY Ly Sold in Rock Island by W.H.BROWN JUST RECEIVED Car Canada Cement, 2 cars Flour and Feed, including Royal Household, Mount Royal, Purity, Three Stars;

Every kind of road cost about twice as much to build in 1920 as it did in 1917, according to the chief of the bureau of public roads, United States Department of Agriculture, and highway construction suffered more than any other class of work through railroad congestion, strikes, labor troubles and material shortages.After the war there was a great public demand for improved roads.Many roads had been seriously damaged by war trafic, and it appeared that the return of men from military service would provide an abundance of labor.The army of laborers which was expected to apply for the work did not, however, materialize, On the contrary, there was a distinct shortage Well Kept Roadside Where Weeds Are Controlled by Frequent Mowing.of labor, and wages reached the highest levels attalned in the history of the country.In 1917, competent labor could be secured for from $1.50 to $3 per day, but the corresponding wages in 1920 were from $3 to $5 for a shorter day's work.In proportion to this demand there was also a pronounced scarcity of construction materials.Sand, gravel, stone, and cement, and materials commonly used in road work Increased in price between 1917 and 1920 from 50 to 100 per cent, Naturally, these ins creases in cost were reflected In the prices paid to contractors for road work.Gravel roads increased from $4,535 to $7,250 per mile; concrete from $21,165 to upward of $40,000 per mile, and brick roads from $33,000 to $55,000 per mile.As funds avallable for road construction are largely limited by statute, or by the returns from taxation, a majority of the states this year have deliberately withheld work, the plans for which had been completed, until they could obtain a greater return for their expenditure.SCOTS USED FIRST MACADAM Resident of Ayrshire Made His First Experiments About 1814\u2014 Roads Now Common, Macadam roads are so common in America that national pride may well lead us to look upon them as a domestic product.R But John MacAdam was a Scot, resl- dent In Ayrshire, where he made his first experiments about 1814, according to the New York Sun.Five years later the first public roads were lald with the pavement and a grateful par- lament awarded the Inventor a grant of $50,000.In 1827, after the new pavement had been thoroughly tested, MacAdam was made surveyor general of all metropolitan roads in and about London and the use of his method became general throughout the United Kingdom.HARDING LAUDS GOOD ROADS President in First Message to Congress Deplores Money Wasted in improved Highways, In no uncertain terms, Presiden tiarding

Elizabeth of Hungary, which was stolen from the suint's shrine at Marburg last November, has been recovered, according to the Berlin correspondent of the London Times, after having been buried in the back garden of a London suburban house.The recovery is due to the vigilance of the Frankfort police.Six men took part in the robbery last November, and five of them were arrested soon after.There was, however, no sign of the stolen treasury ond the men obstinately denied all knowledge of it, Eventually, the police got up to the track of the sixth man, Emil Kell- man.Jt was found that In the meantime he had been to London; he was watched, however, and on his return he was arrested, During his detention the inquiries of the detective led the police to belleve that Kellman had hidden the jewels in England.It was assumed that if he were set free, he would probably get them.He was therefore let out on bail; at the same time he was kept under strict but secret surveillance by the police.On June 15 Kellman went to London to fetch the jewels and on his return a few days ago he was rearrested at Cleves on the German Dutch frontier, where he was taken red-handed with the missing jewels and pearls, 174 in number, hidden in his clothes.SURELY HAD HUBBY TRAINED Little Man Knew His Helpmeet's Whistle and, So to Speak, .Governed Himself Accordingly.The time was Saturday, 5:30

\u201cGo to it.\u201d Immediately a shrill and welrd whistle startled the quiet audience.A meek little man sitting well toward the front Jumped as though shot, bolted up the alsle, appeared in the

neckwear plays an Important part in any woman's wardrobe, but more so in that of the girl at boarding school or college, whose clothes are more simple than those of her debutante sister.Consequently they require the small touches which metamorphose a frock or suit and give the appearance of more changes of dress than one actually has.Sweaters more than any other article of dress have done a great deal for neckwear.About a year and a half ago all af the best dressmakers featured the lingerie neck finish, and much was sald and written about fit us being the return of a well-liked but for a time neglected fashion which would be joyfully nccepted by all women, This was not verified.While every- hody knows that a touch of white at the neck makes a gown more hecom- ing and & woman appear more youthful.for some reason the plain, collarless neck has been preferred.It is the tailored suit and the sweater that keep the neckwear business thriving.The wearing of one- piece dresses for such a long time was rather a severe blow to this dainty detail of dress.The recent revival of tailored sults, especially thoge with the open front requiring a handsome gllet, has stimulated the production of new things in this line.Many of the latest Imports are of sheer white fabrics with touches of bright color introduced, such as new reds or unusual shades of blue.These may be in the form of a simple embroidery with a narrow string tie to match.Bright-colored leathers, too, are seen on guimpes and waistcoats of sheer fabrics.OIL PAINTING ON THE DRESS Decorations in oil paint on costumes nas

fringe.Twelve rows, each about an inch and a half deep, finish the bottom of the skirt, two rows appearing on each sleeve and as a border for the round cape collar.This collar, by the way, sometimes reaching almost to the waistline, is shown on quite a number of the early fall frocks.Naturally a slender figure is required if the collar or cape 1s to be becoming, and regardless of the fact that statisticlans have produced figures to prove that about 48 per cent of the total female population should he listed in the \u201cstout\u201d class, straight, slender, youthful figures are seen in abundant numbers.The frock fastens in the back and Is finished at the waistline with a folded white kid belt, which Is eaught together at the hack with an ornn- mental buckle.Looped Panels and Sashes., Straight line dresses all have drapery of some sort, looped panels and sashes chiefly, The bateau neckline fs retalned, but the short sleeve has heen superseded by the long wide open sleeves,

adopted, Dams must be built und reservoirs constructed at the headwaters of the Arkansas river te impound its floods.The government reclamation service points out that floods not less destructive might occur in any year on the Rio Grande if the waters of that stream were not held in leash by the great Elephant Butte dam, Before thut dam, with Its vast reservoir, was constructed, flood time and
