Water, as is known, is a great essential in nourishment. The next ingredients iu milk of as great im- port as food are casein and albumen. These nourish and build up the muscles, hide and hair of the animal. The ash in the milk aids in the build- ing of bone. It will be observed that in normal milk the albumen content is 3 per cent of the whole and fat about equal, Al- bginen is the greatest essential in the nourishment of the young and growing animals and fat is of comparatively little value at this stage of the calf's existence. Nature, in recognizing this feature, provided for the emergency by a specially prepared food for the young calf immediately upon its birth. This food is found in the milk given immediately by the cow upon the birth of the calf. This milk is called colos- trum milk and is of a very higli al- bumen content and a low fat content and thus nature provides for a very essential factor in the nourishment of the young calf. The albumen contenC of the colostrum milts is 15.85 per cent, while the fat content is but 3.37 per cent. As the stage of lactation period advances and the young calf has grown, and developed, the fat content iu- Admirers of the Jersey cow call her the little giant of the dairy. When first brought to this country she had slowly but surely to win her nay by her intrinsic value as a butter producer against preconceiv- ed ideas and lack of knowledge of her merits. Many farmers have held a stubborn belief in a "dual purpose" cow, an animal that can be used for either beef or for dairy- ing and but indifferently fitted for either. The highest usefulness and Profit are to be looked for only in the special purpose animal. The Jersey is a special dairy purpose cow. The bull shown is an excel- lent specimen of the Jersey breed. creases and the albumen content de- creases until the normal constitneney is reached. With these facts at hand it can be readily understood why skimmilk is as good as whole milk for calves. In the separation of milk no constituent Is withdrawn except the fat. For this reason, all the necessary elements for the young growing animal remain be- hind in the skimmilk. Thus we have as good a, calf as that which nature orig- inally ri,inally provided. Tinder these conditions it is possible to separate the fat from the milk. sell it at the creamery for a goodly 23 or 25 cents per pound, and there still remains in the skimmilk a food containing all the constituents necessary for the growth and develop- ment of the young animal. Whore the Feed Went. The United States department of ag- riculture took twenty cows and tried the effect of ticks on their milk yield. They found that cows with a light "dose" of ticks nave about four-fifths as much milk as those with none, rind cows heavily infested gave less than half as much. It took just as much Work to care for the tick iufested cows, and the ticks took over balf of their teed.

A new broom sweeps clean but it never comes with the guarantee not to raise blisters. Many a won:an poses as an angel who wears her wings on her hat instead of on her shoulders. In his effort to be known as a good fellow many a man shows evidence of overtraining. If should be the constant endeavour of every man to deserve the good opin- ion he has of himself. Unfortunately a weak intellect will not prevent a person from being head- s trong. It is quite superfluous for a man to tell a woman he isn't worthy of her. If she thought he was, she wouldn't want him. It is a mistake for men to imagine women are always taking about their dresses. Sometimes they are talking about their hats, There is one suit that nearer seems to fit, and that is a suit for damages. There is only one way to get along with some people, and that is their own way. About the only man in the world who doesn't want a fat job is the living skeleton.

In order perhaps to bud the opportunity of informing the critic of his disap- proval, the manager invited him to a supper at the Westminster club on the second or third night of the produc- tion, When he thought the fitting mo - went bad arrived Mr. Bateman led the conversation to the point at issue and, emphatically banging the table with his fist, declared in the loudest of tonea that he did not produce his plays at the Lyceum theater to please Mr. Comyns Carr. There was a moment's awkward silence, which Mr. Carr con- fesses he did not feel quite able to break. but which was released by a wit of the eompany with the happy re- tort, "Well, dear boy, then you can't be surprised if they don't please him."

A wash cloth and warm water at best removes but little of it. If you really wish to see how much dust the face can take up in a shopping trip take a damp wash cloth when you arrive home and dip it in your cold cream jar. Then scrub the face and neck. The result is rather depressing. The wash cloth is so black that one is horror struck to think that so much dust has been carried on the face even for a short time, For some reason soap and water do not seem to remove the dust as web as cold cream and warm water. The face should then be sponged off with cold water to tighten the pores, which have been opened by the warm water, and dusted with powder that has been chosen to match the color of the skin as nearly as possible. This powder should be wiped off till not a bit of it shows, for nothing is more dis- agreeable than smears of it on the face. Children Cry FOR FLETCHER'S casTO R IA SWEEPING SUGGESTIONS. On the subject of sweeping and dust- ing a well-known housekeeper has this. to say: Sweeping the stairs with a paint brush when once tried will be found an improvement on work done': with the ordinary dust brush. Use a soft paint brush of medium size, It will remove the dust from the corners of uncarpeted stairs, and also reach between the sticks supporting the rail- ing. A child's toy broom is useful to brush away spider webs or to reach the dust, tinder the bed. It will also remove the dust under low furniture and back of the wall radiators. Put a screweye in the handle in order to hang the little broom in a convenient place, and you: will use it for many things. ' To make new brooms last longer soak in hot salt water before using. To prevent dust from flying from place to place when dusting use a damp cloth instead of a duster, Labor exchanges, on a municipal basis, are to be erected in Denmark.
