by the business men of Hartshorne to
ask for an extension of the Choctaw

TO PASTEURIZE MILK
Most Effectually Done in Bottles
In Which Received
Good Results May Ba Secured by Us-
ing Ordinary Tin pall With Pie
Plate Inverted to Permit Clr-
dilation of Water
— i
(By J F FRANDSEN)
Milk can be pasteurized most ef-
ficiently in the bottlee in which It le
reoeived To do thla a small tin pail
with a perforated false bottom can be
used If a special pall Is not at hand
the same results can be secured by
using an ordinary tin pall with an In-
Arrangement for Pasteurizing Milk
verted pie tin placed in the bottom of
the same This false bottom Is placed
in the pall so as to permit circulation
j of water and prevent bumping of the
! bottles An accurate thermometer
I should be placed in the water or In
one of the bottles Set the bottles of
milk In the pail and fill with ’water
nearly level with the milk In the bot-
tles Place the pall with the mUk
bottles on the stove and heat until the
thermometer indicates a temperature
of from 150 to 160 degrees F The
pall and bottles should then be re-
moved from the stove and allowed to
stand 25 minutes In the hot water
Now remove the cover and place the
pail under a cold water faucet allow-
ing the water to run slowly Into the
pall Continue until all the hot water
has been replaced with the cold water
an) the temperature of the milk has
been reduced to about that of -the
water This Is the cheapest and most
Pall for Efficient Pasteurizing and
l Cooling of Milk
efficient way of cooling and will also
prevent breaking of bottles The milk
can then be conveyed to the refrigera-
tor and placed on Ice until required
for "use
It Is well to remember that pas-
teurised milk Bhould not be used for
the feeding of children after It Is 24
hours old '
Cultivating Com
The purposes of interculture tillage
are first to kill weeds second to
keep the surface soil receptive to
rainfall third to prevent the evap-
oration of soli moisture' Cultivating
corn four Inches deep as compared
with two Inches deep may reduce the
yield ten per cent owing to pruning
the roots Four or five cultivations
are usually sufficient
More frequent cultivations have not
been shown to Increase the yield
when the soil Is not unduly compacted
from heavy rainfall provided it is free
from weeds
8alt for Hard Worker
Horses at hard work and on full
grain feed should have salt often A
good way Is to keep a lump of rock
salt In the corner of each feed box—
they are the best Judges of the
amount of salt they require and If
afforded a constant supply will not eat
Ux) much
Care for Colt's Feet
Taka half a day to examine and
trim up your colt's feet Many young
horses are Injured by letting their
feet grow wild
Equal Chance for AH
It Is an fasy matter to put all the
little pigs together to be fed by them-
selves or to enlarge the troughs so
they may all have an equal chance
DANGER OF BUND STAGGERS
Kansas Experiment Station Finds Dla-
ease Caused by Poison In Mold
- and Filth on Corn Ears
Information coming from widely
separated places show that the corn-
ear worm la causing Injury and (leath
to farm animals by Infecting them
and giving them blind staggers Fol-
lowing is an extract from an article
In Farm and Fireside:
For five or six years occasional out-
breaks of blind staggers In horses
have attracted attention During this
time the Kansas experiment station
has-been making an experimental
study of this disease and its origin
Its exaet causa Is still only partially
understood but enough has - been
learned to place the blame safely on
poison In the mold and filth found
on ears damaged fey the corn-ear
worm
The eggs of the adult Insect- caus-
ing this trouble are laid In the husks
of the young ear After hatching tbs
ear-worm burrows through the soft
young kernels leaving Its fllth
which with the escaping Juices of
the corn furnishes the best possible
medium for the development of the
seed mold and putrid decay ' Suffi-
cient of this poisonous material re-
mains In the corncobs and corn to
cause a gradual poisoning of the
horses consuming any considerable
quantity of the damaged corn
The loss of horses in Kansas and
a number of other states from blind
Btaggers has been found to be uncur
able even by a skilled veterinarian
unless the treatment is begun early
TO REINFORCE A DOUBLETREE
Can Be ‘ Mads of Oak Boards With
Piece of Metal Between Them—
Hold Strongeet Team
A reinforced doubletree can be made
of two one-inch oak boards with a
piece of metal A between them The
metal -should be about 3-16-inch thick
All three pieces should be cut and
shaped alike and riveted together
The singletrees are made in the same

make and will hold the strongest team
besides outlasting a dozen ordinary
doubletrees
SOWING SEEDS TOO THICKLY
Practice 'Should Be Discouraged at
Overcrowding Undermines Culti-
vation of Plants
(By W R GILBERT)
Thick sowing must be guarded
against Each seed should have room
to grow without crushing or Injuring
Us neighbor
Over-crowding undermines the culti-
vation of plants at the start and It is
long before if ever they outgrow it
Of course small plants or seeds may
be sown more thickly than the larger
ones but relatively they ought really
not to be sown thicker
Each plant should have sufficient
room to develop its coyledons and one
leaf Before it Is thinned or pricked
out
Every year vegetable crops are much
Injured by being sown too thickly and
perhaps it is hardly too milch to affirm
that most gardeners would be the
gainers were only half the seed sown
that there is now
As to what to sow the Beed in the
lighter the seed bed the better
Few seeds will vegetate in a lower
temperature than 40 degrees and in
the range of 20 degrees all seeds will
grow
Cause of “White Comb”
“White comb" in fowls is caused by
decayed food impure water and over-
crowding In dark and filthy bouses
There is a scurfy appearance to the
comb and wattles head and neck with
a gradual loss of feathers from the
head and neck Treatment consists In
removing to clean quarters and giving
wholesome food At night give a tea-
spoonful of castor oil after which add
daily a teaspoooful of good condition
powder to the soft food and anoint
the head and afflicted parts with vas-
eline The castor oil need only be
given once
Egg-Laying Contest
Egg laying contests are now being
carried on in many states of the union
and they are serving as an excellent
stimulus to the utility side of the
poultry Industry While they never
have and never will prove that one
breed or variety Is superior to all
others they do prove conclusively that
careful breeding In certain strains or
families of fowls increase the egg pro-
duction away above the average and
thus boosts the returns to even larger
proportions'
For Quick Growth
Every element required for quick
growth and full development In pul-
lets Is foond in milk oatmeal chapped
clover and bran and in such well-balanced
proportions that the digestive
organ will not be overtaxed In any
way
Sheep Fertilizer
On hillsides where coarser animal
waste would hardly stick long euougt
to do the ground any good shee(
droppings take the place of a tpe
daily prepared fertilizer

Better Than Medicine
His temples were beginning to be
gray and he was old enough to have
a fully developed case of dyspepsia
He looked at the slice of roast beef
and then tried to eat it after which
he signaled to the waiter “Here
take this back" he said “I can't eat
meat that’s roasted until it's like a
piece of leather I told yon 1 wanted
It rare Do you call this rare?”
“Young man” replied the waiter “if
I give It to you any rarer than that it
would have to be raw Look here
You can squeeze the blood out of it”
After finishing a good hearty meal
the man with the dyspepsia handed
the waiter a quarter as a “tip" and
went out saying to himself:
“I wonder if he called me young
man Just from force of habit or be
cause he really meant it?"
His Happiest Days
“Ah my good man” said the mil-
lionaire addressing the horny-handed
son of toil “I envy you I never have
been as happy as I was when I had
to carry a dinner pail"
“What wages were you gettin’
then?"
“Wages I wasn’t getting any
wages My father had put me to work
for the purpose of learning the busi-
ness from the bottom up and I was
getting the experience I needed to fit
me for the important position to which
I was promoted two months Intel"

“Did you send for me?" asked the
new reporter
“Yes" replied the city editor
“Don't you know that this is not a
sensational paper — that we endeavor
to confine ourselves strictly to facts?"
“Yes you told me that when I came
to work"
“What do you mean then by saying
at the beginning of this story that the
man was a native of Pittsburgh and
was born of rich but respectable par
nta?"

WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP
HILL AND SONS THE OAT CHAM v
PION8 ARE COCKNEYS BORN
’ AND BRED
City-bred in the world’s greatest
metropolis and untrained as to things
agricultural were J C Hill and his
three boys when they settled on home-
steads at Lloydmlnster In the Prov-
ince of Saskatchewan (western Can-
ada) eight years ago ’ Today they
are the recognized champion oat grow-
ers of the North American continent
having won twice in succession the
silver challenge cup valued at $1500
at the Fifth National Cora exposition
Columbia S C The Plate officially
known as the Colorado Oat trophy Is
emblematic of the grand champion-
ship prize for the best bushel of oats
exhibited by individual farmers or ex-
periment farms at these expositions
The Hill entry won this year In the
face of the keenest competition hun-
dreds of exhibits being sent by expe-
rienced farmers from all parts of the
United States k d Canada The oats
were grown on land which was wild
prairie less than four years ago
When Mr Hill and his three sons ‘
who probably never saw a wider acre-
age than the hills of Hampstead
Heath or the parks of London came
to Saskatchewan eight years ago they
had little more Capital than was re
qulred for homestead entry fees They
filed on tour homesteads in the Lloyd-
minster district which straddles the
boundary of Alberta and Saskatche-
wan They went to work with a will
ripping the rich brown sod with break-
ing plows and put iu a crop which
yielded fair returns
They labored early and late and de-
nied themselves paltry pleasures glad
to stand the gaff for a while in riBlng
to their possibilities They talked with
successful farmers and studied crops
and conditions and profited by both
The new life on the farm was strange
but they never lost heart handicapped
as they were by lack or experience
and capitaL
The farm house modern In every
respect compares favorably with any
residence In the city The Hills have
substantial bank accounts and their
credit is gilt-edge from Edmonton to
Winnipeg and beyond
“There la nothing secret about our
methods nor Is our plan copyrighted
We first made a thorough study of
climatic conditions soil and seed"
said Mr H11L “We tended our crops
carefully and gradually added live
stock realizing from the beginning
that mixed farming would pay larger
and more certain returns than straight
grain growing We have demonstrated
that fact to our satisfaction and the
result is that many of the farmers in 1
the district are following our exam-

Cheap In Ireland
An Englishman traveling through
Ireland went Into a restaurant where
he ordered some fish On finishing
the meal he inquired its price and
on being told complained of ita being - f
so dreadfully dear
“Why In England" said he “one
can get fish for little or nothing”
Pat who had been standing by lis-
tening to the argument between the
waiter and the Englishman came up
to him and said:
“Well it’s cheaper In Ireland than
ever It was In England Sure the
people here are cleaning their win-
dows with whiting It’s that cheap”
