4 CLES What a bustling, hustling world this is. fuss and fret and stew from early morn till late We at night. Here we've toiled and fumed all sum- mer in fond hopes of being able this month to in- dulge in a jag of fishing joys a way up somewhere in the mountains where nature has been unde- spoiled by the hands of man. We know a lake away up in the wilderness where the tall pines shade its shores and where the fish are so plenti- ful that they crowd one another out of the water; where the bull frogs sit on lily pads and blink their eyes in the sunlight; where the purple shadows of its depths mirror the fleecy clouds and where peace and quiet reign supreme, and thither we were going, but alas, the month is gone and so are our dreams. October is here and soon King Boreas wil! mantel the ‘hills and lake with a white blanket that will send the rainbow to deeper water and still the bull frogs croak. While meditating on our blasted dreams it occurred to us that de- spite our disappointment we have much ‘to be thankful for. We cavorted and scuttled around mmer without so much as foundering our trusty Bucephalus on heel dust or colliding with other quadrupeds browsing along the highways, Neither has Bucephalus encountered the wrath of an impudent Ford Sedan. While this is much to be thankful for, there are yet other things that help to fill our cup of gratitude. There is for in- stance the announcement by the Free Press that they are going to publish some of the things Arthur Brisbane has to say. Many times we bought a Sunday paper for no other reason than to read what Arthur writes. Brisbane is the most fearless, logical and able exponent of true Ameri- canism of any newspaper writer we know of. Per- haps he is no more able than many others, but with the Hearst millions back of him he can say what he thinks, which is not true of most editors. Still we doubt whether he is worth the salary the Free Press says he gets. That’s too much money. and besides, its an injustice, We, too, spill Bunk de Juuxe, and we have to pay the editor for it, and here is Arthur annexing a quarter millions bucks ayear. He can add a little to that by suing the Free Press for libel because he doesn’t look nearly so mean as they picture him. The Free Press will be worth the price of subscription if for no other reason than Arthur’s writings. Its a good paper anyway, but Arthur will make it better. We hope the Free Press will print all he has to say and not do as many scissor wielders do, print only that with which they agree. Watch Arthur’s EL ‘a smoke. kinds of mistakes. Perh in the cellar.

C., and in the time of the Han dynasty. About 200 years later a traveler was sent from China to report on the al fishery of the Mediterranean sea. At a later date it was introduced into the Chinese materia medica. Reinach described the trade with the Celtic races in pre-Roman times. Specimens have been found in Britain and Ireland. The Romans stopped the trade with the Celtic races, however, in order to send the coral to India in exchange for frankin- cense, myrrh, and precious stones, Ancestors of the Necktie. The necktie came into use a8 some thing with which to warm the neck in cold weather. The ruff was the fore- runner of the bit of color that is knot- ted at a man’s throat today. After the ruff came neckcloths of Brussels lace, which were at one time worn so long that the ends were tucked in the waistcoat. Later a broad silk ribbon was worn and the grandfather of the cake eater wore a cravat which passed twice around the collar. The modern scarf made its appearance about forty years ago.

In the summer months comes the real test. You cannot han- die milk and cream successfully dur- ing the summer without having some means of cooling it quickly and keep- ing it at a low temperature. The use of a tank is the most satisfactory means which can be employed. The pump should be kept going so that fresh water direct from the well is flowing through this cooling tank, On many farms where such a tank is used all the water going to the various stock tanks Is first pumped into the cooling tank, the overflow water going to the stock. Keeping milk sweet is almost entirely a matter of cleauli- ness and temperature regulation, You cannot call yourself a success- ful dalryman until you have learned how to produce clean milk. Milk is a human food and should be treated as such. Dirty milk always sours more quickly than clean milk and quite often has other bad flavors, These bad flay- ors and the souring are caused by bacteria, which are tiny organisms too small to be seen with the naked eye. They are everywhere present and every particle of dirt has upon it large num- bers of these tiny organisms. Most of the bacteria which get into the milk come from dirt on the cow, which falls in the pail while you are milking. These organisms also get into the milk from the utensils, such as cans, pails, strainers, coolers and separators which have not been properly cleaned and sterilized before using. ‘The bacteria reach their greatest ac- tivity and multiply most rapidly when the temeprature of the milk is high. They increase very slowly at lower temperatures and for this reason milk shouJd be cooled as quickly as possible and kept at least as low in temperature fs water fresh from the well. Milk would never sour if it were possible to keep all the bacteria out of it, but some of these organisms get In in spite of our efforts to keep them out, and the only thing we can do is to keep them from increasing rapidly in num- bers. Briefly, then, the essentials in car- Ing for milk in the summer are to milk in as cleanly a manner as possible, Wiping the flank and udder of the cow with a moist cloth before milking, or even washing if these parts are very dirty, careful cleansing and scalding of utensils, protecting the milk from files and dirt after it has been drawn and finally cooling It as quickly as possible and holding it at a low tem- perature. It may be possible to get along without a milk house or milk room but the best results in keeping milk or cream in the proper condition will come from having a room planned for the purpose of handling it in the best manner possible and the cooling tank is perhaps one of the most es- sential features of the milk room, Causes and Control of White Scours in Calves White scours is #ometimes a source of severe loss In very young calves, While usually considered as an acute contagious disease of calves, it fre- quently occurs as a chronic condition which may be fatal to the calf but which retards its growth and develop- ment markedly. Veterinarians at Cornell university regard an acid condition of the drop- pings of the calf as an important symptom of this disease. The acidity results from bacteria which are usual- ly introduced through the milk fed to the calf. The acid prevents the diges- tion of the casein of the milk, thus producing the whitish appearance of the droppings, which is characteristic of the disease. The navel of the new- born calf is also a frequent source of infection. At Cornell the preventative meas- ures taken for this disease include bathing the navel with an antiseptic and applying a drying powder to close up the opening as soon as possible. The amount and temperature of the milk fed the calf is carefully regu- lated and great care used to feed un- der the most sanitary conditions. Control methods employ the use of | barley water, made by adding boiling hot water to finely ground barley and allowing it to stand until nearly cool. In severe cases the milk is replaced altogether by barley water for a tem- | porary period. Usually, however, equal parts of barley water may be used with whole milk, The principal use of the barley water is to soothe the In- flamed membranes of the Intestines, | The acidity is corrected by using a | solution of one ounce of bicarbonate of soda and two drams of aromatics in a pint of water. This is given once daily and has proved very effective. It can be given to the calf by means of a funnel and rubber tube. Sweet Clover Makes Hay of Excellent Quality First year sweet clover makes prac- | tically as good hay as alfalfa. It should not be mowed until rater late in the season, however, or the stand might be injured. Second year sweet clover is more rank in growth and makes a coarser hay, but if cut at the proper time a very good quality of | hay can be obtained, It should be cut before it starts to bloom and pre- ferably on a cloudy day or in the late — A SMART BIZNESS MAN DONT ARGUE WITH 7H!
