And yet -- what could slie do? As it happened, rescue was already upon the way in a most unexpected guise. It bore the name of Miss Henrietta Sayles. Miss Sayles was a niece of Euphemia's husband, Years befc re, when she had been a girl, she had visited her uncle and his wife, end, since she called Mr. Payne "Uncle Joseph," she called his young wife, only seven years older than her- self, "Aunt Euphemia." That had been forty-three years ago, but she still wrote to "Aunt Euphemia," although she was now sixty-four, And now, after more than ,tw•oscore years, she was coming to make dear Aunt Euphemia a visit. She came --a little, wrinkled, dreict up woman, who looked years older and was a good deal feebler than her 'dear aunt.' But she was very fond of company, and to all callers she talked• perpetually of dear Aunt Euphemia. One afternoon. when Henrietta was tired and lying down, Euphemia, who never napped in the daytime, slipped over to her cousin's. Sylvia and Cicely met her, bubbling with laughter. "`Dear 'Aunt Euphemia;" cried Sylvia with pretended roncern, "how is your young niece?" Cousin Euphemia stood and look- ed at them. "Does it seem funny to you?" site cried. "Funny to us? It's funny to every- one! All the town is laughing. Why, he could be your grandmother! Do you feel a draft, dear?"

This lilt can easily be done during the sunnier months, but in winter it is difficult. There is no better means of furnish- ing, a succulent feed in winter titan through the use of corn silage. It must be remembered that corn silage is not a complete ration for it is high in carbohydrates :and tow in protein content. Furthermore, egparienec has shown that silage should not be fed as the only rongho.ge in the ra- ' tion, It is always advisable to feed some hay and the legume hays, such as alfalfa, clover, or soy bean, are best adapted for ,use in producing milk. A good ration of roughage would be what silage and legume hay the cows will readily consume. This will probably be about thirty to forty pounds of silage and eight to ten pounds.of legume hay for a good-siz- ed animal.
