THE COW BARN.
If you intend remodeling your
cow barn see to it that you get plenty
of light In the way of windows.
There Is nothing that aids in keep
ing the barn Bweet and wholesome
as much as sunlight. Most barns
ought to have twice as much window
space In them as they possess. Far

HATCHING CHICKENS.
Chicks can be hatched in incuba
tors so they are utterly worthless. It
tho temperature is kept too high or
too low during the hatch or If the
ventilation is bad the chicks will bo
Bmall and weak and will be diseased
before they come out of the shells.
If the chicks are hatched right,
brooded right and fed right they will
be as large and vigorous as chicks
can be. Wrong feeding,' close con
finement and Improper mating have
done vastly more to injure the vigor
and vitality of our poultry than the
method of hatching or brooding.

THE HORSE WEED FOR GREENS.
I write to say that river bottom
horse weeds make the next best
greens for table use to mustard, of all
greens I have eaten. There are a
few people who are aware of this, but
it is not generally known. They are
now just in good condition for table
use. Cut tho rich tender tops off and
cook same as mustard. They are
good till they get ready to send out
top limbs for seeds. They would
help a poor family (and a rich one
too) to tide through tho summer.
They are very abundant in our creek
and river bottom fields, Why not
put them In the silo for hoi-Res?

ORCHARD GRASS OUSTS CLOVER.
Replying to a query of a subscriber
will say that if his soil and climate
are adapted to the growth of orchard
grass he should have no trouble in
getting it started In a field now
seeded to clover and other grasses.
A stiff blue graRS sod might resist it,
but nothing elso can, with our soil
and climate.
Some years ago a small field near
our farm-buildings was sneded to or
chard grass for early pasturage, and
since then, year by year, It has spread
In all directions along tho roadside,
around tho fences of the farm yards,
and even has spoiled the lawn of the
houso by Its coarse, bunch-like man
ner of growth. I am sure our friend
will have no trouble in getting it
started, but he should ht. suro it's
the grass he wants. F. E. P., in the

TO PROTECT A GLUT OR WEDGE.
After giving it the proper shapo
and length take a piece of tin or sheet
iron and bend It over the beveled end
and fasten with a small tack. Then
take a piece of wire such as comes off
baled hay and wrap it round the top
end of the glut (that Is tho name we
gave them when I ussd to split rails);
now twist the ends together, to keep
the glut from fraying. Such a glut is
a good substitute for an iron wedge.
It is necessary to give a check with an
ax for a start. Ambrose Blaney, iu
The Epitomist.
FANCY EGG TRADE.
Our farmers are often too careless
in handling their eggs. The hens run
at large and' lay anywhere and every
where of their own sweet will.
Very frequently a hen will steal her
nest (as we say) and commence in
cubation. When found the clutch is
picked in with the rest, so that eggs
of various degrees of taint and de
composition get mixed in with good
eggs and are sold to the damage of
the seller's reputation.
I wish to urge every farmer to
strive to build at a fancy egg trade,
for there Is money in it. On any
market wagon, I have Invariably
found an urgent and persistent de
mand for fresh eggs, that in eggs
that are actually, really and truly
fresh beyond cavil or doubt. I have
found customers ready to pay several
cents more per dozen for fancy guar
antied eggs than the regular stand
ard market price. But, of course,
there must never be any slip.
Every egg must be O. K. No hap
hazard guess-work methods can pre
vail. One bad egg could reasonably
alienate a customer for all time. But
only be square and honest and partic
ular and sell direct to this consumer
and the farmer can get fine prices
for his eggs, and make good money..
A fancy egg trade is certainly well
worth striving for. It pays. M.

White Steamers Use Kerosene as Fuel
TnE WHITE STEAMKIl WHICH MADE A SUCCESSFUL PUBLIC DEMONSTRATION
KEROSENE AS FUEL ON THE RECENT 20G0-MILE GLIDDKN TOUR.
The most interesting announce
ment ever made In connection with
the automobile industry was un
doubtedly that made a month or two
ago to the effect that the aew models
of the White Steam Cars could be run
en kerosene, or coal oil, instead of
gasoline. Everyone at once recog
nized that the use of the new fuel
would add materially to the advan
tages which the White already pos
sessed over other types of cars.
There were some people, however,
who were sceptical as to whether or
not the new fuel could be used with
complete success and, therefore, the
makers of the White Car, tho White
Company, of Cleveland, Ohio, deter
mined to make a public demonstra
tion of the new fuel in the 1909 Glid
den Tour.
From the standpoint of the public,
no test more satisfactory could have
been selected. First of all, the dis
tance covered on the Glldden Tour,
from Detroit to Denver and thence to
Kansas City, was 2650 miles. This
was certainly more than sufficient to
bring out any weaknesses, if such had
existed. Still more Important was
the fact that the car was at all times
while on the road under the supervi
sion of observers, named by those
who entered other contesting cars.
Therefore, it would have been impos
sible for the driver of the White to
have even tightened a bolt without
the fact being noted and a penalty In
flicted. At night the cars were
guarded by Plnkorton detectives and
could not be approached by any one.
Peculiar Eclipse.
Trof. John A. Brashear, of Alleghe
ny, calls attention to a peculirlty of
the solar eclipse of June 17. For a
few seconds it was an annular eclipse,
then a total eclipse, and finally
an annular eclipse again. Al
though we have records of annular
eclipses for 400 year3 and of total
eclipses for thousands of years. Prof.
Brashear maintains that this is per
haps tho first occurrence of the kind.

sore at night? ltub them with a little

Calamity In Kansas.
More hard luck stories from the
Kansas grain fields! Only a short
time ago disaster wild disaster
drifted in from the wheat harvest.
The grain was too heavy for the ma
chine; there were not enough men
to handle it. Now, storage room is
lacking nnd already the railways are
reluctantly predicting that they will
not have enough cars to move the
harvest. And, as if that were not
enough, reports of new and unique ca
tastrophe to "the growing corn crop
the cars are so large the stalks break
under them!
As things are going, agrlcultrally,
in Kansas, more woe is In sight.
Steers too big for cattle chutes, hogs
whose legs won't carry them, alfalfa
of a strength to make stacking ex
plosively dangerous, oats far too rich
for breakfast food
Kansas is in tough luck, that's cer
tain, and there Is more to come.

Important Discovery.
What Is claimed as an important
discovery In the glass industry has
been made which will tend to revolu
tionize the art of grinding glass. Tho
grinder which has been discovered is
made from one-half best Portland ce
ment and one-half silica sand. In
this stone there are no soft or hard
spots, and It will grind glass without
scratching. The cost of the grind
stone fs about 10 per cent that of the
common grindstone. Mr. Little is
receiviag many inquiries concerning
the stone.
No Man is Stronger
Than His Stomach
A strong man is strong all over. No nan can be
strong who is suffering from weak stomach with iu
. consequent indigestion, or from lorso other disease
of the stomach and its associated organs, which im
pairs digestion and nutrition. For when the stomach
is weak or diseased there is a loss of the nutrition
contained in food, which is the sourco of all physical
strength. When a man "doesn't feel just right,"
When ho doesn't slceo well, has an linnnmfnrtnhtn
feeling in tho stomach after eating, is languid, nervous, Irritable and despond
ent, he is losing the nutrition- needed to make strength.
Such a man should use Dr. Pierce' a Golden Medical
Discovery, it cures diseases ot the stomach and other
organs ot digestion and nutrition. It enriches the blood, '
Invigorates the liver, strengthens the kidneys, nourishes
the nerves, and so GIVES HEALTH HAD STSEMGTU TO

Tho complete success of the new
fuel while on this 2C50-mlle public
test and the advantages gained
through its use were well described
In the following dispatch which the
correspondent of the New York Sun
sent to his paper at the conclusion of
the tour;
"A feature of the tour which was
watched with special interest was
that tho White Steamer used kero
sene, or 'coal oil,' as fuel instead of
gasoline. The new fuel worked
splendidly throughout the 2650-mile
Journey, and all claims made in its
behalf were fully proven. First of
all, aB regards cheapness, the White
driver secured kerosene all along the
route from 6 cents to 10 cents cheap
er per gallon than was paid for gaso
lene. Secondly, the new fuel was
handled without any precautions, and
it was not unusual to see kerosene
being poured Into the fuel tank while
the crew of the car and an Interested
crowd stood by with lighted cigars
and cigarettes. At the finish of the
tour, the White was the only car per
mitted by the authorities to enter
Convention Hall, where tho technical
examination took place, without
draining Its fuel tank. Thirdly, the
new fuel proved to bo absolutely
without smoke or smell. Fourthly,
kerosene could bo purchnsed at what
ever part of the route was most con
venient, and not once during the trip
through tho ten States of the Middle
West was there found a grocery store
where kerosene was not readily and
cheaply ohtaiuahln. Finally, the

Women Activo In China.
Chinese girls are forming themsel
ves into associations and pledging
themselves not to marry unless they
are allowed to choose their own hus
bands. Another effect of the woman
movement In China was evidenced the
other day when the young women of
the province of Che-Klang opposed the
plan for securing a loan from England
to build nn important railroad and
invested $100,000 in the stocks of a
Chinese company.
Soldier's Resignation.
A French soldier on active service
was informed by the mayor of his vil
lage that his father bad recently died.
In acknowledgement he wrote as fol
lows: "Monsieur le maire, I heart
ily thank you for my father's death.
It is a little accident that often hap
pens In families. ' As for myself, I
am in the hospital minus one leg,
with which I have the honor to sa
lute you." Argonaut.
OP
amount of fuel used on the trip
showed that kerosene Is at least
fifteen per cent, more efficient, gallon
for gallon, than gasoline. The car la
other respects made a most creditable
showing, and there was the usual riv
alry among the observers to be as
signed to the White so that they
could ride with the maximum of com
fort. The only adjustments or re
pairs charged against the car during
the long trip were tightening a lubrl
cator pipe nnd wiring a damaged mud
guard. These pennltlea were not In
flicted until more than 2000 miles
had been completed with an absolute
ly perfect score."
A particularly interesting feature
of the new White Steamer Is that
either kerosene or gasoline may be
used as fuel. The necessary adjust
ments so that the fuel may be changed
from kerosene to gasoline, or vice
versa, may be made In a couple ot
minutes; hut so completely successful
has kerosene proven to be, that it Is
not believed that any purchasers will
care to use gasoline.
The White Company report that
the demands for their new steam can
both the $2000-modol and the
$4000-model exceed their most san
guine expectations. It Is evident that
the combination of steam the pow
er which everyone understands and
has confidence In with kerosene
