small Wheelers, breathing hard with
excitement, watched them over the I

ladies paired off, leaving the two men
to follow behind.
The mate noticed, with a strong
sense of his own unworthiness, that
the two ladies seemed thoroughly en-

oblivious to all else.. A suggestion
from Flower that he should close up
and take off Miss Wheeler seemed to
him to border upon audacity, but he
meekly followed Flower as that bold
mariner ranged himself alongside the.
girls, and taking two steps on the
kerb and three in the glutter, walked
along for some time trying to think of
something to say.
"There ain't room for four
abreast," said Flower, who had been
scraping against the wall. "We'd
better split up into twos,"
At the suggestion the ladies drift-
ed apart and Flower, taking Miss
Tyrell's arm,, left the mate behizid
prepared with Miss Wheeler, nervously wonder-
ing whether he ought to do the same.
"I hope it won't rain," he said, at
last.

glancing up at the sky which was
absolutely cloudless.

The Care and Handling of Milking
Machines.
Seven different kinds of mechanical
milkers have been operated under
varying conditions for periods of
from six months to five years by Prof.
Larsen, of the South Dakota Experi-
ment Station. The results of his
experience are summed up in the fol-
lowing nine points which contain many
valuable suggestions, both for users
of the milking machine and for those
who contemplate installing them,
ants, and then, leaving his hat on the
seat, walked back in perplexity to the
door.
"Never mind," said Miss Tyrell,
quietly, as he came back. "I dare
say they'll find us."
Fraser bought a programme and
sat down, the brim of Miss Tyrell's
hat touching his face as she bent to
peruse it. With her small gloved
finger she pointed out the leading

er as he passed the door, led the way
up the narrow staircase to Miss
Tyrell's room.
"I've brought him with me, so that
he'll be company for Emma Wheeler,"
said the skipper, as Fraser shook
hands with her, "and you must look
sharp if you want to get good seats."
"I'm ready all but my hat and jac-
ket," said Poppy; "and Ernma's in her
room getting ready, too. All the chil-
dren are up there helping her."
Fraser opened his eyes at such a
toilet, and began secretly to wish that
he had paid more attention to his own.
"I hope you're not shy?" said Miss
Tyrell, who found his steadfast gaze
somewhat embarrassing.
Fraser shook his head. "No, I'm,
not shy," he said, quietly.
"Because Emma didn't know you
were coming," continued Miss Tyrell,
"and she's always shy. So you must
be bold, you know."
The mate nodded as confidently as
he could. "Shyness has never been
one of my failings," he said, nervous-
ly.
Further conversation was rendered
difficult, if not impossible, by one
which now took place outside. It was
conducted between a small Wheeler
on the top of the stairs and Mrs,
Wheeler in the parlor. below. The
subject was hairpins, an article in
which it appeared Miss Wheeler was
lamentably deficient, awing, it was
suggested, to a weakness of Mrs.
Wheeler's for picking up stray ones
and putting therm ht her hair; The

The only flourpublicly,and
unreservedly guaranteed
not bleached, not bli=nded:
•
•
1. Before the milking machine is
installed, cull 'out the cows having
very uneven quarters, and teats that
are extremely small and extremely
large. Even though the milking ma-
chines may have a large range of
adaptability in this respect, uniformly
shaped udders and teats are advant-
ageous.
2. The operator should know how
each cow in the herd gives down her
milk, and how she milks mechanically,
and adjust the work of the milking
machine according to the individual
cow. -
3. The cows that gave only a small
amount of milk and habitually re-
lease their milk little by little are not
best suited for mechanical milking.
4 .Breed and raise cows that are
adapted to mechanical milking by,
first, selecting a herd sire that comes
from ancestors having good udders
and teats and that milk well, or select
a tried bull that is known to put good
udders and teat's on bheir daughters;
secondly, by not raising the daughters
of the cows that have abnormally
shaped mammary organs' and that are
known to give down the milk irregul-
arly.
5. The operator of the milking Ma-
chine should understand, how to ad-
just the parts and the workings of the
milking machine to the different cows.
He should have a mental picture of
how each cow in the herd releases the
milk, and how the work of the machine
and the cow must work together and
not at cross purposes.
6. The operator should take time to
prepare the cow. Hes hould see that
the teats are all in normal condition.
With most cows, the machine should
not be attached until the cow has giv-
en down her milk,
7. With some cows, and near the
end of the milking process, the teat
cups will climb upwards: The low-
er part of the quarter is thus wedg-
ed in to the upper part of the teat cup.
This may shut off the flow of milk.
The operator should gently pull down
on the teat cups to release this grip
or pressure before the machine in en-
tirely detached. If this bothers
much, a weight may be suspended
from the lower part of the teat cup
during milking. By gently lifting and
pressing the halves of the . udder in
the latter- stage of milking just pre-
vious
e-
vious to detaching, it will help the ma-
chine to milk the cow dry.
8. If the above points are observed,.
many cows need no stripping. The
operator soon learns from the amount
of milk, and from the looks of the
cow's udder whether the cow is milked
clean, However, to be sure, the opera-
tor should try every cow by hand.
This should be done at once after milk-
ing. It may be accomplished by
shutting the vacuum off and stripping
directly into the teat cups, holding the
cups in the left hand and stripping
with the right; or it may be done by
stripping into the pail.
9. The different parts of the milk-
ing machine should be kept sanitary
by thoroughly cleaning, and by keep-
ing the parts in a disinfectant solu-
tion between milkings such as pre-
viously described,

In order that the live stock which

farmer should take care that his ani-

important thing to avoid,, and which
proved the undoing of the deep fur-
row theory, is the transposition of
top and under soils. As far as prac-
ticable the latter should be kept at
the bottom of the tilled stratum until
it is improved mechanically and che-
mically through bacterial action,
promoted by tillage and judicious
manuring.
An example of the room that ob-
tains for discretion in regarding the
depth of furrow is provided by a
simple experiment carried out in
Morayshire in connection with the Ab-
erdeen College of Agriculture. A field
that had been two years in grass,
chosen for its suitability for the pur-
pose, was plowed at depths of 41/2 in.,
6 in., and 7% -in:, and sown with oats,
the treatment in every other way be-
ing the same throughout. It is in-
teresting, and may even be a little
puzzling, to note the influences of the
varying depths upon the crop. The
best return both of grain and straw
was obtained from the 6 in. furrow,
the deeper furrow being a good sec-
ond, while it was evident that 41k in.
was an insufficient depth for that field.
The only point in favor of bhe shal-
lowest furrow was that the crop rip-
ened rather earlier than on the other
portions. This advantage, however,.
was gained at too big a sacrifice of

"I do hope the others have got
good seats," she said, softly, as the
overture finished; "that's every thing,
isn't it?"
"1 hope so," said Fraser.
He leaned forward excitedly. Not
because the curtain was rising, but
because he had just caugit sight of
a figure standing up in the centre of.
the pit -stalls. He had jest time bo
call his companion's attention to it
when the figure, in deference to the
threats and entreaties of the people
behind, sat down and was lost in the
crowd.
"They have gob good seats," said
Miss Tyrell. "I'm so glad. What a
beautiful scene."
The mate, stifling his misgivings,
gave himself up to the enjoyment of
the situation, which included answer-
ing the breathless whispers of his
neighbor when she missed a sen-
tence, and helping her to discover
the
identity of the characters from the
programme as they appeared.

During some recent heavy route

into the hospital suffering from rheu-

debarred from sending for or receiv-
ing intoxicating liquors.
One day, however, Pat determined
to proach the subject to the surgeon,
and, accordingly, when the latter visit-
ed the wards and inquired if there
were any complaints, our hero in-
nocently asked for a change of diet.
"What change of diet would you

French Colonies Render Mother
Country Valuable Service.
Few people, not even the French,
fully realized previous to the war the
extent and value of French colonial
possessions. An editorial writer in
a French newspaper recently admitted
that his government would have been.
completely self-supporting in the mate
ter of materials for munition fac-
tories if it had organized and develop-
ed the mines in its colonies., As a
matter of fact, the war, which arous-
ed the hearty co-operation of the col-
onists, has convinced France that she
is a richer and more important na-
tion than she thought she was.
Even a brief resume of French col-
onial aid is impressive. The ranks
of the army have been reinforced by
hundreds of thousands of Algerians,
Tunisians, natives of Morocco and
Senegalese. The war factories em-
ploy 15,000 natives, from North Africa
and an equal number of skilled An-
namites from Cochin China. Eight
thousand Annamites are working t
the Red Cross organization. Natives
of Madagascar are enrolled as en-
gineers and New Caledonians are at
work in the mines.
Indo-China recently added more
than $2,000,000 to its budget for send-
ing foodstuffs to France. North
Africa has sent 1,000,000 tons of cer-
eals to Franke and also to Great Brit-
ain and Italy, Algeria has supplied
2,500,00 sheep and 60,000 cattle. Mo-
rocco has contributed a great number
of eggs. Madagascar has sent meat
and tpreserves, St. Pierre and Mique-
lon salted fish, the Antilles and
Reunion more than 100,000 tons of
sugar, Wool, rubber, graphite, nit-
kel, chromium and many other use-
ful materials have been obtained from
French colonies.
