It is bad policy to pasture grass too close-

must be supplied when the grass grows
short.
—No matter if the ram or breeding

—Horses sleep but little—usual three

whatever can be should be done to make

all discourage the horse from lying down

lying down at all These conditions
should be remedied. Stalls should be

—Milk fever can be prevented very
easily by milking the cow regularly be-

ularly milked for a few weeks before
calving as she is after. Begin the milk-

first week once each day is sufficient, but
the last week she should be milked both

NOISY BUTTERFLIES.
One Species Produces a Sound Like
the Snap of a Whip.
One does not think of butterflies as
making any sounds, nor of caterpillars
as noisy creatures, yet according to the
late Samuel Hubbard Scudder in
“Frail Children of the Air,” the care-
ful student will find some use for his
ars when observing the habits of fo
ressed at the
. 30th, 1911.
both. Says the author:
It is a fact that certain butterflies
produce sound during certain move-
ments. The “whip” butterfly when
surprised makes a noise like the snap
of a lash by opening and shutting its
wings in quick succession. Some hi- '
bernating butterflies when disturbed
make a faint hissing sound by slowly |
depressing and raising their wings.
The noise thus produced resembles
that made by blowing slowly through Com
closed teeth. Other sounds resemble
the friction of sandpaper. i
A large number of caterpillars make |
sound by striking the head against the |
leaf on which they are resting or by |
swinging the head from side to side,
catching the mandibles in the rough- |
ness of the leaf or |
threads spun on it. It is said that a
certain kind of chrysalis when disturb-
ed emits a slight, sharp chirp or click-
ing noise.

A Hard Face.
Bobby's papa, who is a naval offi-
cer, took him to call upon the family
of a brother officer who had just re-
turned from a cruise to the tropics.
Among the treasures exhibited was
a large red and blue parrot, whose ap-
pearance and conversational powers
proved most fascinating to the little
boy. While the grownups were en-
gaged in talking over old times Bob-
by, left to his own devices, drew near-
er to the parrot’s cage, bent on mak-
ing friends. i
Presently there was a squawk from |
the parrot and a little frightened cry
from Bobby, who ran to his father, |
exhibiting a bleeding forefinger.
The little man was brave, though,
as befitted the son of a sailor. He
brushed away his tears and said:
“Gee, papa, but that bird has a hard
face!”—Harper's Magazine. |
Tips to Travelers.
Take a candle in your bag and a box
of safety matches. When they are
wanted you will be glad they were
put in. The space required for them
is small. A passenger on a steamer
that was wrecked had a small candle,
which enabled her to collect some of
her most valuable possessions when
the lights went out after the collision.
Carry a few pens in your bag if you
do not use a fountain pen. You will
find that it is worth while, as the
pens provided at some hotels and oth-
er public places are often so bad that
it 1s impossible to use them with any
satisfaction.—San Francisco Chronicle.
Test For Butter.
Here is a test for butter so simple
that any housewife can put it into
successful practice: A clean piece of
white paper is smeared with a little
of the suspected butter. The paper is
then rolled up and set on fire. If the
butter is pure the smell cf the burnt
paper is rather pleasant, but the odor
is distinctly tallowy if the “butter”
is made up wholly or in part of animal
fat.—Chicago News.
Butter In Pie.
A bit of butter about the size of a
large bean improves the filling of a
lemon ple, making it richer and smooth-
er. Sometimes as much as a spoonful
fs used. A Frenchman often adds a
tiny bit of butter to a cherry ple, and
an apple ple is also improved in the
same way.
She Knew!
Dentist (to old lady who wants tooth
