SOON nm IMPORTANT J0B| 2 Proves, According to Authorities, Tlut Principles of Federal Standarde ~ and Eueutlal Features of In- lpmlon Aro Simple. (Pupaud by the Unlud States Depart- ., ment of Agriculture.) Washington.—There are people who have said that the federal grain grades are complicated and difficult to master, but Ruby Peterson, war emergency messenger girl in a flouring mill in ‘Seattle, did not find them so, particu- larly. Six months after she took the Job of carrying samples back and forth; between the laboratory and -the office, ghe was a person of lmportance in the -establishment and was making all the tests and analyses on grain samples to check the licensed inspectors' grades. Goes Through It All. Long before that she was making separations on samples of mixed wheat ‘to étudy under the tutelage of the mill manager the identification of classes -of wheat. Later she likewise made geparations on damaged wheat to study the grading factors of the stand- ards. Then she began making all the mechanical determinations for the Tmanager, such as weight per bushel and moisture test. Then she gradu- ated to the big job of checking, under -the supervision of the manager, the in- spectors’ grades on all wheat received at the mill, The United States department of ag- Ticulture calls attention to this case, ot particularly by way of throwing bouquets at the girl, but by way of Girl Méssafiuer in Seattle Flour Mill Who Learned to Make Analysis.of | Grain Samples. * ' illustrating what the department has always contended, that the principles of the federal standards and the es- sential features of inspection proced- ure under them are simple enough, -especially on country run grain, for any farmer or country grain buyer to understand and apply. Now Get True Grade. The mill manager checks the inspec- tors’ grades on the wheat received at’ the mill and appeals to the federal grain supervisor on all misgraded cars. “What impresses us most,” says the manager, “is that it is possible now to get the true grade on a car of grain. Under old conditions we used to look at a sample and guess at the grade, and, while we were more or ldss profi- ciént at guessing, yet we find by ana- 1yzing as we do now that a great ma- Jority of our guesses were out of line. . We find; too, that it is very easy to apply the federal standards. The young woman who assists with this work had never seen any grain before she took'up the work, and we soon found she was able to .analyze the samples in a compnratlvely short time.” R T R T e T T Y Scientists Probe Riddle of Death Paris.—Prominent French sci- entists, headed by Dr, Gustave Gorey, famous spiritualist, are co-ordinating ‘the "' sclentific world’s- efforts to solve.the mys- tery .of death. An Internation- al Institute of Metaphysics was founded by a group including Henrl Bergson,. Madame Curie and Charles Richet. “The insti- tute will spread occult propa- ganda and a - school will be 3 founded to study spiritualism 2 in all its phases. 808 0B B e BB B bbb ebenond 0o 00 3 O RN —— World’s Gayest City. Cologne.—~Many cities in' Europe are now given up to festivity, but Wies- baden is the gayest city in the world. Enormous sums are spent upon deco- " rations, $12,500 recently on flowers for the famous ballroom in the Kurhaus for one evening. . FOJLTRY| GIVE GRIT TO AID DIGESTION Hens Should Have Access at All Times to Supply of Material to Help Grind Feed. (!’ropned by the United States Depart- ‘ment of Agriculture.) The hens ehould have access at all times to a supply of grit or stones of a size small enough to be swallowed readily. Grit is used by the hens to help in grinding in their gizzards the hard grains which they eat. A supply of ordinary gravel will answer the purpose of grit very well. Crushed oys- ter or clam shell also should be given to the hens and be kept before them at all times. If this is withheld the hens Self-Feeders Are Handy for Holding Grit, Crushed Oyster Shell, Ete. are likely to lack sufficient shell-form- ing material in their feed, with the re- sult that they lay many soft-shelled or thin-shelled eggs. Grit or shell can be purchased in small quantitiev at any feed or poultry supply store. {PECULIARITIES OF TURKEYS Show the Least Intelligence of Any Farm Fowl When Young and the Most When Matured. Some one said the turkey shows the least intelligence when small and the most intelligence after maturity of, any fowl known. This is true of all the farm fowls. The goose and duck will often go some distance from the poultry range, make a nest, deposit their eggs, sit and hatch, if undis- turbed, taking no notice as to whether being watched by human eyes or not. ‘The turkey is very cautious. She will lead one, if she finds she is being watched, away from the nest or where she intends making it, often making a nest and sitting down cozily, until her watcher decides, or is-deceived into thinking she is on the nest, but he ‘will have to try it over again. After the watcher has gone away, she leaves her temporary nest for the true one, deposits her egg and usually covers 1t deeply with leaves or other trash. WINTER SHELTER FOR GEESE Fowls Are Very Hardy and Open Sheds Are Satisfactory for Cold Weather Season. Geese do not need shelter except during cold winter weather, when open sheds may be provided. Goslings are not usually hatched until good pasture is available, and need addi- tional feed only for a few weeks. The range of pasture used either for gos- lings or for geese should be large enough so that the grass will remain clean, or the stock should be moved frequently to fresh land. Coops, bar- rels, or some other dry shelter should be provided for the young goslings. Geese are very hardy and free from diseases and insect pests. p——— ‘\\\\\\\\‘\\‘ g If you would avoid limberneck al- low no dead carcasses or maggots on your farm. * & It pays every farmer to have a poul- try-wired yard for his fowls in which they may be enclosed when desirable. & 8 Much of the year’s success with the farm flock depends on the quality of the birds that are left after the fall culling. . & 8 Figure on enough poultry litter for the laying house so that the birds can have clean scratching material through- out the winter. . * % A little extra care of your hens and a bit of choice feed will pay in eggs many times. Don't be afraid of doing too much. 3 * * = The hen needs exercise the same as a human being. You can’t expect hens to have health and lay winter egge when huddled up in a small space. IF BACK HURTS BEGIN ON SALTS Flush Your Kidneys Occasion- ally If You Eat Meat Regularly No man or woman who eats meat regularly can make a mistake by flushing the kidneys occasionally, says a well-known authont{ Meat forms uric acid which clogs the kidney pores so they sluggishly filter or strain only part of the waste and poisohs from the blood, then you get sick. Nearly all rheumatlsm, headaches, liver trou- ble, nervousness, constipation, dizzi- ness, sleeplessness, bladder disorders come from sluggish kidneys. The moment you feel a dull ache in the kidneys or your back hurts, or if the urine is cloudy, offensive, full of sediment, irvegular of passage or attended by a sensation of scalding, get about four ounces of Jad Salts from any reliable pharmacy and take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia and has been used for generations to flush clogged kidneys and stimulate them to acthty, also to neutralize the acids in urine so it no longer causes irritation, thus end- ing bladder disorders. Jad Salts is inexpensive and can not injure; makes a delightful effer- vescent lithia-water drink which. all regular meat eaters should take now and then to keep the kidneys clean and the blood pure, thereby avoiding serious kidney complications.
