he had some repair work done to
one of hi3 knees that had given
him trouble for some time. Mr.

The State Board of Agriculture
has flooded the country with re
quests that during the week of
May 20th, all roosters be dispos
ed of in some manner sell'them,
pen them up, or kill them. The
object is to try to lessen the loss
due to rotten eggs during sum
mer months. The germ of a
fertile egg will expand if the
egg is kept warm over night by
the hen, and when cold again,
the germ dies and decay immedi
ately begins.

Which Do You Prefer?
It is important for reasons of health and
practical economy for every housekeeper
to ask herself this question:
" Do I prefer a pure baking powder like
Royal, made of cream of tartar derived from
grapes, or am I willing to use a baking
powder made of alum or phosphate, both
derived from mineral sources ? "
The names of the ingredients printed
on the label show whether the kind you
are now using or any brand, new or oldy
that may be offered is a genuine cream
of tartar powder,- or merely a phosphate
or alum compound.
Royal Baking Powder contains no alum
nor pho"phats.

Sweet Milk for Calves.
While it is desirable to feed
calves skimmilk it is very impor
tant that the milk te in a clean,
sweet condition. Digestive trou
bles often result, according to
the Pennsylvania State College
Agriculture Experiment Station,
from feeding sour or partly sour
milk. A uniformly sweet product
from day to day is essential. In
stances are on record in which
buttermilk has been fed success
fully to calves. The practice of
feeding buttermilk or sour milk
at one feed and sweet milk at
the next, however, is not gener
ally advised.
