and government creameries took the
place of the old private concerns.
These creameries are equipped upon
the most modern plans, and, being con
ducted with no thought of profit, hut
solely in the Interests of the farmers,
their operation has been of enormous
benefit. They are called "co-opera
tive" and really are just exactly that.
A chain of them has been established
through I he Country sufficient and otti
elent to serve the whole farming com
munity. They are subject lo the con
trol of their patrons, through boards
of directors, and under government
management.
Most of the patrons separate their
milk- at home by means of hand sep
arators and lake their cream to the
government stations, say three or four
times a week. There It Is carefully
tested, weighed and credited up. At
the end of each month each patron
gets credit for the equivalent of his
cream in butter and receives a cash
advance equal to 10 cents a pound.

the garden, never slept, although its
mistress, Mrs. Marion Boultings, did
regularly every evening I hat her sou
and herself spent alone.
She was nodding now over a ribbon
decorated basket containing some silk
en hose she had been mending. The
ormolu clock struck 11, and Otto, turn
ing around, pushed a book off to I lie
floor. The noise awoke Mrs. Hennings,
who sat. up with a start and remarked: j
"1 am off to lied. What a stupid
evening! i haven't heard you speak
for an hour.”
“You couldn't,” said Otto. But as
she stared at him indignantly he made
haste to add, “Because 1 haven't spo
ken for an hour.”
Mrs. Benniugs got up slowly, and a
letter fell from her lap. Otto hasten
ed to pick it up.
“You’d better read it,” said his
mother. “M,v cousin, Ilarry Jones,
who is tremendously rich, writes that
lie is bringing his motherless daughter
lo Paris. Her name is Arietta, and 1
have heard she is pretty and accom
plished. We must be very nice to
them, particularly to the daughter.
She is an only child.”
“Then 1 congratulate her. I'm an
only child, too,” remarked Otto.
“Her husband will he very fortu
nate. Don’t you agree with me?”
“I’ll withhold judgment till I see the
young lady,” said her son.
Left alone, Otto resumed the writing
of his letter, which he was to address
to a certain Celeste, and reflected that
probably his mother was already plan
ning to marry him to Arietta, Hie
daughter of. tlie wealthy Mr. Jones.
But lie made a bet with himself that
it wouldn’t come off.
Suddenly a woman’s voice to the ac
companiment of a guitar came through
the open window. It was sofl, rich,
yet penetrating.
“La unite eeoute et se pencil sue
1'oreille,” etc.
“Hello!” said Otto. “A strolling
singer, and a good voice too.” He
went to the window and called out,
“Qui vive?”

j “All night, and there was such a

“I’m sure there was," said Otto,
hunting through his pockets. “Here,
take this money. At least you won't
have to sleep in the park.”
“Then I can’t sleep here?” pouted
the girl. “You believe me, of course,

There nre many places on a farm that

The necessity existed, and a few en

to do something, hut they had not a

Bread, pies and cakes were freely giv-

where men, women and children could

The club is not a money making

How to Make One With Little Trouble
and Repair Old Ones.
Well kept lawns about private resi
dences and public buildings add very
materially to the attractiveness of a
town. A bit of green here and there
will wonderfully improve a barren
and desolate section. It does not cost
much to make a lawn or repair it, ami
the work is not hard.
Iu the spring months is the best time
to make a new lawn and to repair an
old one. Fertilizer should be applied
to grass plots which have been estab
lished a few years, and thin portions
should be reseeded. If seed has been
sown in the fall for a new lawn, watch
carefully this spring and reseed those
places where the first seeding fails to
come up.
In making a new lawn great care
should bo taken. Prepare the ground
as soon as it can he worked. Grade it,
smoothing over rough surfaces, mak
ing proper level spaces and gentle
slopes. If possible the lawn should
slope away from the house. The grad
