Join Uncle Sam’s LAWYERS An eastern preacher says the Bible should be on every lawyer’s shelf. We don’t know a better law-book for a lawyer to read than the Bible. It is the basis of much of our law and contains some pointed references to lawyers. We recommend to lawyers a reading of Verse 46, Chapter 11, in the Gospel of Luke. And Jesus said: “Woe unto you also, ye law- yers! For ye lade men with burdens grievous to be borne, and ye yourselves touch not the burdens with one of your fingers.” PROSPERITY What’s preventing business revival? Pig iron makers in Chicago think they know. They’ve cut their selling price to $18 a ton. That’s only $3 a ton higher than in 1918. It’s.a drop of $28 a ton from the war-peak. The iron makers are stuck with high-priced ore. But they’re swallowing their losses so low prices will stimulate buying. When everybody takes his loss and gets down to a sane level, business will revive. Step up, gentlemen, and take your medicine. Make way for the reluctant landlords. CHILDREN Children about to enter their first year at school are examined in New York. Sixty-seven out of every 100 of them are found physically defec- tive. Their leading ailment are badteeth, diseased tonsils and malnutrition due to improperly bal- anced diet. Mothers, this shows you the weak spots in the small child’s body that are first attacked by city life. Watch your child for these three defects in particular. TAXING TOYS The American toy industry has grown from $13,000,000 in 1914, to $100,000,000 in 1921, due to the fact that German toys have been practically excluded from the American market during the past seven years. The American toy manufacturers are urging Congress to make the tariff on toys so high in the new tariff bill that German toys will be excluded indefinitely. They claim that the German government is aid- ing the German toy industry in every way, mak- ing American competition difficult if not impos- sible without tariff helps. Another nice question for the tariff makers to decide when they balance the interests of the man- ufacturer against the interests of the American consumer—in this instance the American child! “Will they load a tax burden on Santa Claus? 280,000 MOTHERS AND BABIES SACRIFICED The Sheppard-Towner bill to. provide federal assistance in maternity cases was passed by the Senate several weeks ago by a vote of 63 to 7. It went to the House, where it was referred to com- mittee with the understanding that it would be promptly considered and reported out for final action. It still reposes in committee and the news from Washington is that it seems to be the intention to let it die there. If this happens it will be RANK BETRAYAL OF THE MILLIONS OF AMERICAN WOMEN who, through their organizations, have endorsed the bill and urged its passage. It_is clearly the one thing. more than any other | which the women of the nation have agreed should be written into the legislation of the country.

It is a very practical effort to alleviate the suffering mothers and to save the lives of mother's and babies.

INCOMPATIBLE An Australian business man who is visiting this country to study business conditions makes the interesting observation that America must choose between having a merchant marine and a high tariff. The two things are incompatible as is proved by the fact that no nation has ever been able to maintain both. : Exchange of commodities is the life of industry and if America is to take a high place in foreign commerce, she.must import as well as export. change will make this impossible. “] have a friend,” said a man the other day, night drudging in the loop, and from 9 at night srewed to the small end of a telescope, gazing at “Might better be in bed,” his companion com- “Iam not so sure,” said the first man. “I had; dinner with him the other evening, and afterward shared his vigil for two hours.

By magic he seemed to be transported 200,000 miles beyond the world. His mind, accustomed to the evoca- tions of contact with things huban dna familiar,| things which constantly suggested the labors ‘and! burdens and limitations of life, found itself re- sponding to a new stimulus and a new call. It was} actually in another world—a ‘barren, forbidding looking world, it is true, but a world which stirred the imagination, which offered it wide room for play and invited it to exercise itself. It was an experience, a. thrilling experience for a man whose imagination hati been for years bludgeoned ‘by newspaper headlines and stupefied by the movies. He came back to earth with an extraordinary isense of adventure. His soul had traveled. He had been for a precious moment. conscious of its traveling—and that is something for a man who had almost ceased to believe he:-had.a soul. - His friend swept the telescope across the.starry field of the sky, pausing at thi and that wonder —doubles, and star groups and. nebulae.

ADVE NTURE OF THE TWINS By Olive Barton ‘Roberts By the time Wally Woodchuck and his wife -reached the. blue mountain (it was a brown mountain) they hadn't had a drink of water for I don’t know i how long.

Thousands of babies die annually due to malnutrition and allied diges- tive disorders which emanate from the inability of the youngsters to as- similate and thrive on cow’s milk. The medical profession has long known that sanitary goat's milk woflld measurably curtail this heavy infant mortality, but due to the diffi- culty of securing satisfactory food of this description in the average town and city, the doctors have not been able to prescribe this milk for their ; baby patients on the scale they would like to. : The Wideman Ranch maintains 8,000 plutocratic Toggenburg, Saanes and Anglo-Nubian goats of the best I didn’t give them a drink. think on their vacation that they would need so many drinks. But I might have known. Wally is the greatest drinker in ,all Meadow-Grove. Land or Whis- pering Forest.” But. just as he was about to start laway, Wally looked at the sky again and said, “My, I hope it doesn’t rain until’ our vacation is over. It’s bad enough to be thirsty without having to traipse through mud!” So Sprinkle-Blow didn’t go. Well, Wally and Mrs. Woodchuck climbed and climbed up the. brown mountain. They had discovered, of course, by this time that it was not chocolate cake, or any other kind of cake that the mountain was made of, but they had Sprinkle-Blow’s -word for it that the white stuff was frost- ing. They weren’t so hungry, for the frosting by this time, howeyer, hav- ing their minds on being so,,thirsty. But you know how it is, when one sets his mind on having a vacation and getting somewhere in particular, he’s going to have it and get it. That's the way it is. People plan and plan and think they have to have RAR eee eee breeding and lineage. At present, the goat dairy is producing in the neigh- borhood of 2;000.000 pounds of milk a year. ; The entire output is sold exclusive- ly to retail drug stores in all parts of the country. This canned goat milk is sold in different sized tins on the basis scale of 35 cents a quart. The demand for the product is al- ready ahead of the supply. California goats are winning serv- ice stripes and honorary decoration: as the most dependable saviors of deii cate infants at this time known to medical science. The Wideman Ranch is increasing its flocks as rapidly as it can pur- chase good goats while it is interest- ing other farmers and ranchers in the business. Potentially, the canned goat miik business promises to develop to the extent that our domestic demand for this material will be satisfied. Ree their own way.

If the individual’s reaction to a bath is exhilarating and has the tendency to produce good spirits, then the bath, whether it be hot or cold, is beneficial to the person. A young, vigorous heart and 2 flexible set of arteries will, in re- sponse to the stimulus of a nipping} cold bath, carry the rich, warm blood | to the remotest extremities. A less vigorous heart, or stiff blood vessels,| Bozeman, i wi] | Koningen, famous cow of the State or a sluggist muscular “tone” leave the chattering victim of a cold plung nursing “goose pimples.” Cold baths for such a person may de-| i velop an irritability that often re- sults in a full-grown case of neuras- ttheni.

Grapes for grape juice should be perfectly. ripe. | Grape juice may be used for other ‘purposes besides refreshing drinks. | Thin slices of ham.are delicious bak- ed in grape juice and it can be used in \many desserts. Sugar may be added when the juice is bottled or not. If the sugar is-add- ed to the boiling juice sift it in. The juice should be .measured and 1 cup lof sugar used to 4 cups of juice. Grape Juice Wash and stem grapes. Puta very little water in the bottom of the pre- serving kettle. It should be about 1-8 of an inch deep. Add grapes and heat, stirring to prevent burning and to break the skins and pulp. When the juice is flowing freely pour into jelly bag and let drip. If you let it drip all night you will be sure to waste no juice. If sugar is to be added, meas- ‘ure juice. Put in preserving kettle and skim off any scum as it rises. When just ready to boil sift in sugar. By adding the sugar this way the heat is not reduced and no scum should lrise the second time. Do not let \the juice boil. Pour hot into bottles and seal. When the juice ‘is used it {should be diluted with water. Grape juice and lemonade is a tempting combination. Hot winter drinks are delicious made with grape jJuice and Jemons and a few spices. A delicious jelly that will take the iplace of cranberry jelly with turkey or game is made of wild grapes and crab apples. The country house- keeper sometimes finds it difficult to get cranberries, but wild grapes and crab apples are usually plentiful. Wild-Grape and Crab Apple Jelly Wash and stem wild grapes. Meas- ure and add half as many cups of dic- ed crab apples. Put in preserving kettle with just enough water to pre- vent burning and cook until the japples are soft. Stir frequently to ex- tract ‘the juices. Pour into jelly \bag and let drip, Measure juice. Put lin preserving kettle, boil twenty min- lutes. Add as many cups of sugar as there were cups of juice and boll eight minutes. Pour into jelly glasses and cover with paraffin when cold. (Copyright 1921 by Newspaper Enterprise) COW MAY BEAT RECORD.
