No matter what trials beset agri- culture, dairying is end wil•1 always continue to be one of its profitable; and its most secure ventures. The reasons are not far to seek. Ever! since the days of primitive man the! huniaai race has used large proper-' tions of animal food. As population presses, meat is partially replaced by vegetables in the diet, Nowhere, how every has animal food been entirely abandoned. Since the dairy caw is the most economical producer of hu- man food from the grain and rough ages of the farm, the inereased con- sumption of dairy products is coinci- dent with the increase of human popu. lotion. This is one vital reason why dairying must continue. Of all the enterprises in which men engage, live stock husbandry is the most alluring and 'the most enjoyable. But live stock husbandry rests wholly upon mammalian life --Life that de- pends upon mother's milk, In ordinary farming the milk of the cow is freely substituted for that of other animals in the nurture o£ the growing young. But this reason, important as it must be, is one of the least of the reasons why dairying must continue. The cow has been most appropriate- ly designated "the foster mother of the human race." Childhood's depend. mice upoii milk for its normal growth and healthy development is so abso lute and so vital to our national wel- fare that dairy farming ie rapidly coming to be the one indispez:sable industry. Textiles may be "fabrfeat-' ed," foods produced by "synthetic pro-. cesses," building materials "substitute' ed," but "there are no substitutes for milk. It is the one protective food, in the human dietary." Renee, dairying cannot be overdone and the dairy •cow will never be re-, placed, neither in the nurture of the race nor the fundamental economics of the farm. A big woodpile will be worth money this winter. Save a few of the best heads of, sunflowers. We pick them from the tallest and stoutest stalks with the, largest heads that are well filled with plump seed.

Neither should speak, but each should wear a eign on which the words, "SPEAK NOT," should be printed. Each guest, when may, should receive one of these, then be taken by the hand and led downstairs. Those assembled will rise from the floor to meet the newcomers, and bow low. Seat the guests in a circle, and try to keep absolute silence. If any are inelined to tahisper point to your alga. When enough have gathered, one person who is a good story -teller should begin to tell ghost stories. Have the late guests detained upstairs until a tale is finished. Here is the outline of one you could use, filling in the details to suit yourself; "Once upon a tinie three sisters lived alone in a great woods. The two elder sisters were very homely, but Styria, the younger sister, was noted for her beauty, especially for her auburn hair and her white, pearly teeth. Sylvia had a lover who had given her a Iarge diamond ring. Now the eldest sister coveted both the lover and the ring, so one dark stormy night she killed Sylvia anti hid her body. (Describe the storm and the hiding of the body.) One night a short time afterward, tbe eldest sister heard footsteps descending the attic stair; a. tall, white figure entered her room and stood beside her bedside. "Who are you ?" asked the sister. "I am Sylvia," came the reply. "Where is your beautiful hair?" I see a little cloud in your sky; Engagement "ebowerts" will fall by and by. Your love is dark and ruddy With a de -shine bi`aek muataehee he'll ask you to elope with him, But do not be so rash: iYou are naturally fair enough .

"Where are your beautiful teeth ?e "All gone." "Where is your diamond ring'?" "YOU have it." Jump up suddenly as you say "YOU," and at this point have some one who knows the story scream. When all have quieted down, tell an- other one or two. Then place e table in the centre of the room and have your guests join hands and' stand in a chole around it. Place on the table a bowl •containing water. Have some one play a dirge on the piano while the guests dance around the table. Have ready a suf- ficient number of fortunes wrapped in tinfoil. Toss these into the water and ask each guest to snatch a fortune as all continue to dance. Such fortunes as these would be appropriate: You'll meet your death, I fear, when in your eightieth year. Far to distant lands you'll roam; but when you're broke you'll come back home. A handsome youth with eyes of blue longs to steal a kiss from you. You're a gay coquette, I fear, But your capture now is near; And before your romance closes,.
