Something Reminded
mier of Her Duty
wAiny I am reminded of a duty
that 1 have neglected, and that is to
let Sou know how wonderful have
been the results I obtained from the
use of Milks Emulsion. Nothing could
have been more beneficial to me than
vourf Emulsion.
“In the winter of 1917 and 1918 I
had a severe case of pneumonia, and
in the spring of 1919 I took a cough.
1 whs doing some summer work to
prepare myself for a college, but by
the time school opened I was too ill
to attend. I finally went to bed for
the grest cure. I gained a little in
strength and got up by Christmas,
butjmy cough never left me, and I
caught cold very easily and it would
take a month to get over it.
“Finally, in September, 1920, I got
a botile of Milks Emulsion and wrote
you por instructions, to which you re
plied promptly and for which I thank
you. I followed the instructions care
fully and soon my cough began to
disappear. I was able to sleep better
than ever before and my appetite was
fierce. I could not eat enough. I
gained in weight slowly but surely,
but continued the use of Milks Emul
sion, until I am a well girl today.
“I went through the entire season
without a cold or a cough, and I came
back into the society circle and played
all the big affairs without any ill ef
fects. About a month ago I neglected
myself and took a dreadful summer
cold and, being at a house party, I
could not care for myself properly.
But 'as soon as I reached home I flew
in on my old standby, Milks Emulsion,
and within a week I was well.
“I have recommended it to many
and if at any time I can be of any
help to your company by telling what
it did for me. let me know. Sin
cerely, MISS KATY WALLER, 401

If Back Hurts ~~\
Flush Kidneys
Drink Plenty of Water and Take
Class of Salts Before Break
fast Occasionally
When your kidneys hurt and your
back feels sore, don’t get scared and
proceed to load your stomach with a
lot of drugs that excite the kidneys
and irritate the entire urinary tract.
Keep your kidneys clean like you
keep your bowels clean, by flushing
them with a mild, harmless salts
which helps to remove the body’s
urinous waste and stimulate them to
their normal activity.
The function of the kidneys is to
filter the blood. In 24 hours they
Strain from it 500 grains of acid and
waste, so we can readily understand
the vital importance of keeping the
kidneys active.
Drink lots of good water—you can’t
drink too much; also get from any
pharmacist about four ounces of Jad
Salts. Take a tablespoonful in a
glass of water before breakfast each
morning for a few days and your kid
neys may then act fine. This famous
salts is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lithin,
and has been used for years to help
clean and stimulate clogged kidneys;
also to neutralize the acids' in the
system so they are no longer a source
of irritation,, thus often relieving
bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot in
jure ; makes a delightful effervescent
lithia-water drink which everyone
should take now and then to help
keep their kidneys clean and active.
Try this; also keep up the water
drinking, and no doubt you will won

IMPROVEMENT OF
THE DAIRY HERD
Records Create Friendly
Competitive Spirit.
Numerous advantages of Dairy-
Herd-Improvement association work
are listed in a summary of the re
sults of the association’s activities for
the year ended July 1, 1928, which
has just been published by the Colo
rado Agricultural college.
Cow-testing records kept by the
association enable dairymen to cull
unprofitable cows, select heifers for
the young herd, determine the worth
of the bull and intelligently conduct
feeding operations, the report states.
C. A. Smith, fieldman for the state
dairy commissioner, prepared the
summary, which states that the asso
ciation records “create a friendly
competitive spirit between dairymen,
which tends to raise the production of
the herd and makes for more efficient
management.”
He adds: "Dairy-herd-improvement
association records are becoming more
and more necessary to the successful
sale of surplus females. The man who
is going into the dairy business today
wants animals with authentic produc
tion records behind them. The dairy
man who has such records on his cows
can command a premium price on his
sale stock.”
The association work also presents
an opportunity for a community to
make a name for itself as a center
for high-class stock of a particular
breed.
The cow testers’ records show that
the man who fed a balanced ration
according to production had a suc
culent winter feed, took the chill off
the water in winter time, supplement
ed pasture with grain had the larg
er return above feed cost. Copies
of the report may be obtained from
the extension service of the state
agricultural college.
Let Dairy Cow Market
Home-Grown Grain Feed
The dairy cow furnishes a better
market today for feed than ever be
fore, says 11. It. Searles, dairy spe
cialist with the agricultural extension
division, University of Minnesota.
Mr. Searles has been comparing
prices and finds that while the prices
of dairy feeds have increased 24 per
cent since 1914, butterfat prices have
mounted about 70 per cent in the same
period.
“In 1914, with butterfat selling at
30 cents a pound, the 300-pound cow
returned S9O at a feed cost of $45, or
a return over feed cost of $45,” says
Mr. Searles. “In 1927, with butterfat
at 51 cents a pound, the 300-pound
cow returned $153 at a feed cost of
about $56, leaving a return over feed
cost of $97. This cow, then, in 1927
returned $52 more over feed cost than
she did in 1914. Translated into
terms of return over feed costs, the
increase in favor of 1927 has been
around 115 per cent.
“It pays to feed grain to good cows.
For the man who lias the cows they
are a better market for his feed grain
than the elevator. If he is short of
grain he can afford to buy it at pres
ent prices. The proper grain ration fed
with roughage will greatly increase his
income for the roughage he is selling
through the cow.
“Cow testing association reports
show that as the production of but
terfat increases from 106 pounds per
cow to 300 pounds, the price received
for the roughage the cow eats in
creases from $5.50 per ton to $39 per
ton.”
Outdoor Exposure Quite
Harmful to Dairy Cows
Tests at state experiment stations
show that a dairy cow drinks about
four gallons of water for each gallon
of milk she produces. This means
that a cow giving five gallons of milk
a day must have approximately 20
gallons of water.
Dairymen have observed that cows
compelled to drink at an unheated out
door tank in cold weather do not take
as much water as they need. They
also consider outdoor exposure harm
ful to the cows when the winds are
cold and the weather stormy. Mem
bers of dairy herd improvement asso
ciations often find that the installa
tion of automatic drinking cups in
their barns increases the production
of their cows 9 or 10 per cent. A
Minnesota dairyman says that keep
ing a constant supply of fresh water
before his cows in drinking cups saved
him an hour’s labor a day. He con
siders his investment, in drinking cups
one of the most profitable he ever
made.
£
Ideal Dairy Barn
Two requirements of a dairy barn
wall must be met in order to provide
warmth. The wall must be airtight
to prevent drafts and it must be built
of materials and after a plan which
reduces heat loss by radiation to a
minimum. Incidentally, when both
these requirements for warmth are
met the problem of successful and ef
fective ventilation is greatly simpli
fied. Walls constructed for warmth
combined with an approved ventilation
system eliminate frost on walls.

Marion, Ohio. —Clarence I’er
ry of Marion is alive because
Carl Lerapke converted his trac
tor into a “tank” and plowed
into a furious hull.
Ferry was working in a field
on a farm near here when he
was attacked by a bull.
Lempke, in a neighboring field,
saw the animal charging Perry
and goring him.
Unfastening the plow from
the tractor, Lempke speeded the
cumbersome machine across the
fields and bucked the hull, which
was compelled to flee from its
helpless victim.
Ferry received a broken nose,
two broken ribs, aud possible in

HE STEPS OUT AT
82, LANDS IN JAIL
Celebrates After 13,C00 Nights
at Home.
Chicago.—For years William Kearns,
hale and hearty at eighty-two, had
avoided the pitfalls that yawn before
men. In the 36 years of his married
life he had not looked upon the wine
when it was red, blue or yellow; nor
had lie gambled, nor stayed out nights.
A little quick arithmetic reveals that
Mr. Kearns had remained at home
something like 13,000 nights. A great
deal of emotion may he pent in 36
years. Mr. Kearns, in the quiet of the
county jail ruminated that after 13.-
000 nights of decorous deportment, a
fellow becomes a wee hit bored.
One night Mr. Kearns, eight.v-two,
but feeling quite chipper, decided to
step out with the boys. Then, if ever,
lie reasoned, was the time to sow his
wild oats.
After a goodly crop had been sown,
he went home, where his wife, who is
eighty years old, had been wondering
what had happened. Though it was
“way past bedtime,” Kearns began
moving the furniture into the alley.
He amused himself between times by
tossing bric-a-brac at such targets as
attracted his playful fancy. Mostly
he aimed at the garage. Mrs. Kearns
finally called the police.
Her husband was still in a happy
frame of mind when he went before
Judge Hartigan.
“Thirty days,” the court said.
“Thanks, judge,” said Mr. Kearns.
“What’s 30 days compared to 36
years?”
“Well, make it CO days then,” said
the court.
“That’s fine,” replied Kearns, “and
again I thank you.”
“You’re welcome, and I’ll make it
90 days,” Judge Hartigan told him.
Families Exchange
Mates and Children
Minot, N. D. —An exchange of hus
bands, wives and even children by two
families living on farms near Lans
ford, Bottineau county, was -evealed
here by divorce records in the case.
Mrs. Lawrence C. Rikenarud and
Mrs. Willis Knight obtained divorces
here on the same day, each charging
her husband with infidelity. Each
wife testified for the other and the
husbands made no answer to the com
plaints.
Testimony in Mrs. Rikenarud’s suit
hinted at a quarrel at the Knight
family home before the suits were
filed. During the quarrel, it was said,
certain admissions were made.
Then, with the divorce decrees is
sued, Mrs. Rikenarud and Knight de
cided to get married. Mrs. Knight
and Rikenarud had the same idea. So
the four slipped across the boundary
line to Melita, Manitoba, where a
double wedding ceremony was per
formed.
Afterward, to prove there was no
animosity, the four made the trip
back to their farms, about a mile and
a half apart, in the same automobile.
There are five children in the
Knight family, the oldest of whom is
thirteen, and two in the Rikenarud
family, a boy and a girl. In each case
the mother was granted custody of
the children and removed them from
one farm to the other, with the ex
ception of the oldest Knight boy, who
stayed with his father.
Villagers Barricade
Selves Against Wolves
Bratislavia, Czechoslovakia. —Forced
from their native lairs by extremely
heavy snow, wolves continue their
depradations in the rural sections and
small towns, attacking both humans
and animals. Reports from Gaianta,
near here, say villagers have had to
barricade themselves in their homes in
order to keep from being attacked.
A nineteen-year-old boy was torn to
pieces by a pack after he had ex
hausted himself in flight and used the
last cartridge in his pistol.. A woman
also was killed and several persons
badly mutilated.
Gas Kills Boy
Minneapolis, Minn.—A pet kitten
which fell into a chimney, clogging it,
was held responsible for the death of
Charles Nelson, eight, who died of
gas poisoning.
Ruse Scares Burglar
Franklin, l*a.—By crying, “Dad,
set your gun,” Margaret Sutter fright
ened a burglar out of the house. Miss
Sutter’s father was not home.
GREEN FEED FOR
GOSLINGS HELPS
render Grass Should Fill
Principal Part of Ration.
An important item in the care ot
I’oung goslings is to keep them warm
and quiet for the first few days and
an equally important item in their
feeding is to start them out on green
feed, preferably tender grass.
For about two days after hatching
goslings show little inclination to do
anything hut keep warm and quiet.
They may come from under the hen
and nibble at whatever they may sec
that is edible. They are most partial
to grass and tender plants, but will
take a little mash if it is offered and
will dabble their bills in the Water.
After that the gosling begins to take
more interest in affairs and will feed
industriously for short periods, always
prefering short, tender grass and
weeds for its diet, with mash and
other substantial feed that may lie
offered in small amounts. A common
mistake is to feed green food as an
accessory to grain feed when it should
form the principal part of the ration
with mash and grain as an accessory
to the green stuff.
Goslings may lie brooded with liens
or in small colony brooders or with
geese. In the latter ease they will
get along very well if left to the old
birds, the keeper supplying a soft feed
of grain once or twice a day as the
appetites of the goslings may dictate.
This is true only when the range is
simple and furnishes good grazing.
The geese which are mated witli one
gander will usually raise their broods
in one group, the gander being watch
ful over his whole family.
When the goslings are brooded by
liens or brooders they require close
attention while small,. They should lie
confined for the first few days in pens
which will keep them near the lien or
brooder. These pens can lie made of
narrow wire netting or boards and
placed on sod. When the goslings
clean off the grass they should be
moved.
Egg-Eating Habit Among
Hens Hard to Control
The egg-eating habit is Usually
caused by the liens getting hold of a
soft-shelled egg that happens to he
dropped on the ground somewhere in
plain sight. They get to rolling it
about, finally breaking it, and the
trouble has started. The next tiling
is to get it stopped. Sometimes it
may be stopped by making a slight
break in the side of an egg, running a
part of the white and then inserting a
good dose of cayenne pepper, closing
the hole with adhesive tape or court
plaster. Drop this out among the
guilty ones and see what they do with
it and how it affects them. Another
way is to heat an egg to the boiline
point, crack slightly and place out
for them.
In case neither of these work, a
plan that will be effective is to put a
false bottom of burlap in your nest
box just a few inches from the real
bottom, tacking it around the sides,
then cut a cross in the center of the
burlap large enough for the eggs to
drop through. They will go down out
of sight and trouble. It may he that
at the start nf this dirty work you
may be able to locate one leader, and
taking her out to herself the trouble
in the flock will be ended.
Poultry Facts
Keep hens ridded of worms.
* * *
The air in a chicken house should
be continually moving at a fairly slow
rate.
* * *
The first three weeks of the life of
a chick is recognized as one of essen
tial importance.
* * *
Baby chicks will digest a crop full
of mash in from two to two and a
half hours and are then ready for an
other feed.
• * *
The breeding turkey should receive
a good laying mash along with scratch
grain.
* • •
The turkeys should not be fed
straight alfalfa meal or alfalfa steam
meal because it is too bulky to be
handled by their digestive systems.
• • •
It Is generally recognized by pool
try disease specialists that chickens
have remarkable resistance against
most diseases, and the class of trou
bles commonly spoken of as colds and
roup is no exception to this statement.
* * *
The first symptoms of colds among
a flock are sneezing and loss of ap
petite and activity by those infected
* * *
Liver troubles in hens are difficult
to treat, as they are seldom discov
ered until the bird becomes sick and
dies suddenly.
• • •
Hens don’t need ftod can’t eat such
feeds as corncobs and shucks. Save
the eorn-and-coh meal for the cows.
Give the hens whole corn, or prefer
ably cracked corn. They’ll lay more
eggs.
