KITTEN THEIR COMFORTT KIT THE STABLE iN WINTER Small Creature Murderous Huns Must Have Overlooked 13rotaght Tender Thoughts to Soldiers. At Beuvardes, between Chateau - Thierry and Soissons, I met about five inches of gray kiffen that could tell much if it could speak. I This` kitten was the "liaison" be* tween the Germans who fled and the 1 Americans who dispossessed thele. It was the only creature the Americans saw alive when they marched singing into the town after the Germans poi- soned the wells, tired their ammunition dumps, and sullenly departed. The kitten, when I first saw It, was playing about in the sun at the thres- hold of a ruined hut. The body of a deal, German sprawled at nl feet, half buried in splinters- of timber. Chloride of lime lay `like drifted snow on his chest, and in the clotted whiteness was his briar-woo<l pipe, w1li.ch I twice picked up anti twice put clown ere de- eiding not to take it. The bottom of the door of the house showed a jagged rent, as though as ritle-butt 'tad dashed it in, and it wits besmeared with blood. Inside the door was a mass of !tousled straw where Bodies had sta- !bled. The house was dismantled. The tlothina of women lay torn and scat- ; ; The kitten crawled between the top of my ,gas mask (hien in the "alerte" , position beneath Ivy chin), and the brise of my "steel Stetson" and purred dike a watchman's rattle. Its eyes grew bland and yellow as lemon can- dy behind a shop window, i While I made small talk to the kit ten. our artillery planted to right and left wee roaring skyward at stn angle. of 80 degrees. The t'srneussion of the battery threatened to lift the miser- able house from its underpinnings, The window frumes jumped half an inch at every detonation. The glass had long ago given way to burlap or to nothing. And still the kitten purred and pat- ted at ted a bit of paper dangling trans a string, careless as a bobolink. "Every time 1 look at the little creature," con- fessed a stretcher bearer from the teeming dressing station ro+and the corner, "it snakes a lump conte In my throat." "Don't you want to take it home with you?" suggested a lieutenant, But 1 ,hadn't the heart to deprive those men of the solace of its pres- ence. It was their comfort kit.—Stars and Stripes.

Spray the Place With Whitewash— ' Add Some Gerin -killer— Fill In A11 Broken Window Panes, and Provide Other Ventilation—Care of Plants In Winter. (Contributed by Ontario Department of Agriculture, Toronto.) 11 HE period of long, cold winter is here. Of necessity,. our milking cows must have special protection from the cold, and at the same time must be made as comfortable as possible. The whole of the inside of the stable should have a thorough clean- ing. The dust and cobwebs should be swept from the wails. ceiling and windows; the windows should be thoroughly cleaned, also the man- pees and stalls. Then spray white- wash all over the inside, except the windows. To the whitewash add some disinfectant such as a carbolic acid preparation, 01 a chloride germ -- killer. This will kill disease germs, lurking in dark, damp places and maintain the health of the animate, which is at the foundation of profit- able milk production. The neat step is to put in tall brok- en window lights, but where the owner thinks he cannot afford to buy glass at the present high Prices, a piece of coarse cloth, such as an old sack, may be tacked over the win- dow space. This will provide some ventilation in a stable not otherwise ventilated. Cow stables need ventilation in winter by having the foul air remov- ed and fresh air introduced wilhout a draft directly on the cows. A sim- ple way to do this is to hinge all windows at the bottom and allow them to open inward, so as to shoot the air toward the ceiling. There should be a V-shaped board at each side or end of the window, to pre- vent the side -draft, Foul air outlets should extend below the ceiling of the stable, and preferably have two inlets far foul air --one near the floor and one at the ceiling, as In this way the foul air is removed without cool- ingstable the Stab a too niticln, by simply closing the top outlet. No system of cheap ventilation works automatical- ly. They all require some attention. Other points la stable preparation are to have all ties secure so that a cow may not get loose; repairs to mangers and gutters should be made so that they may be kept clean and sanitary without too much labor. Litter and feed carriers are great sav- ers of labor in looking after a herd of milkers during the winter. In a word, make the cows com- fortable and lessen the labor of stabling cows by having them sani- tary and convenient, with as many helps as possible in the form of ma- chinery --Prof. H. H. Dean, O. A. College, Guelph. Care of Plants In Winter. Water growing pot plants only when they need it, then water them thoroughly. When the roll begins to get dry ana powdery on the sur- face, or when the pot is tapped with the knuckles or a knife handle and it emits a ringing sound, the. plaint requires water. GiTe sufficient water so that it runs out through the bot- tom of the pot. Water plants in the morning in cold weather, not at night. Use tepid rain water, or water that has been exposed to air and sun for a day of• two, if possible. The water should be lukewarm, about 50 to 60 degrees F. in winter. Humidity in the atmosphere is one of the main requirements to he successful with plants indoors. Place pans or saucers of water en the heat- ers or registers. A steaming kettle. or pot of water on th• Move is a great help in this respect. When the pots become full of roots, or where the soil le poor, worn out or exhausted, liquidfertilizers can be given plants. The Boil should be moist, not dry, or very wet, when the fertilizer is applied. There are several good plant foods sold at seed stores. "Sterling Werth Plant Tab- lets" or "Bonora" ars both good. Half an ounce of nitrate of soda dis- solved in a little warm water first, and cold water added to make one gallon, also makes a fairly good fer- tilizer for pot plants. Apply once every week or ten days. 'Spraying with water will help keep down insect pests. A lite spray thor- oughly applied to all parts of the plant is necessary to be effective: Plants having very rough hirsute'fol- iage, should not be sprayed or spong- ed, especially in wilder, only the plants having glossa, glabrous fol- iage. Insect pests i -arsine and thrive best in a dry, warm atmosphere. For aphis or green . lie*, white fly, red spider and thrip, "Salpho-Tobacco Soap" is a good rely. Black Leaf 40 is also a good rentady for most insect pests on house, plante♦ Soapy water or a solution of whole oil soap and tobacco water ars beneficial for scale insects on planes. • Slake about ons -half pound of fresh lime in a pall of water, allow it to settle. Give about a teacupful of this solution came err twice to each plant suffering from earth worms. Put frozen planta in a dark place at .once, temperature about 45 de- grees F.
