Cows kept in box stalls produce
more milk and slightly more but
ter fat than those kept in stanch
ions, according to the United
States Department of Agrieulture,
but the slight increase in product
does not balance the added ex
pense for space, bedding and la
bor, Box stalls are to be recom
mended only when maximum pro
duction is desired regardless of ex-
pense, as in testing for cow records.

“Hush, childt Yeu know I never

The fact that a man led his
victorious college debating team
d jesn’t do him a bit of good, when
he gets into an argument with the

Bill thinks it’s more blessed to

But a married ldan knows better.

THE KINDLY NIGHT
When I first saw her,
Bathed in magic moonlight, "
Her Beauty was as a star
Thai shines in the night-
Her hair like woven silver,
Glitterin fair and bright,
Her face so warm and tender.
Ah, she was heavenly sight.
My heart was filled with longing,
For I loved her with all my might
I saw her in the morning;
Gawd! she was a fright!

The long skirt is on the wane
