Tee skill and eloiency;of the• operator is the im- portant factor in keeping down costs:. 011 and Water Very ;Necessary. The careful operator, wh'o' goes over his machine with his eyes open, leak- ing adjustments where needed, sup---, plying oil of proper grade, and mak- ing timelyrepalrs, will get more done and have a very small regale bill 'for the year. Another 'man, using the same type of; machine .who never bothers to make adjustments or min- or repairs, or who does not pay pro--, per attention to oil 'and water, will usually run up a repair bill equal to half the original cost of the tractor each season. Failure to remove carbon, grind waives, adjust gasoline feed, keep up oil and grease, supply to bearings, keep' nuts tight and renew piston rings, will reduce eip;glency -and. consume excess fuel and bit. Keep the tractor working with full effi- ciency as siianyhours,as can be done profitably each year. The. tractor that works but twenty-five days does noteshow the satire degree of effi- ciency in operating costs as does the tractor that is used one hundred and fifty days each' year. Interest, taxes, insurance, shelter are the same no matter how ' many days the tractor is used and these charges go to make this difference. The average hourly cost of tractor operation on well-man- aged farms is given as 90 cents to one dollar per hoar for tractors pull- ing two ploughs or equal work. This includes depreciation, supplies, labor, repairs, Shelter, and insurance, inhere the life of the tractor is taken at five working years.

The vitamins are indispensable con, ctitaents of a normal diet, What: 10 a normal diet? Well normal diet must 'fillet the following conditions; (1) .The' diet must be quantita- tively sufficient, (2)"The' diet ,must contain a suffi- cient amount of protein, fat, and car- bonbYdrate. (4) The diet must eontaln the necessary lnorgaulo salts, • (4) The diet omit contain a ser- tain amount of various amino acids. (8) The diet '` must • cmutate 'the three vitamins A, B, and C. The animal body is-' unable to manufacture vitamins 'and' they are essential to its lite. Hence the ani- mal body requires a fairly content— our supply of the vitamins, and' the only way it can obtain them is by eating fresh vegetable foods or by eating the flesh"or-milk of other Vitamin' A, le the most stable of the three, and animals ppssess con. siderablo'powers"df storing thisvita- min intheir fat, Vitamin 0 is the least stable. Young' growing animate are the' most susceptible to vitamin shortage, ui'egrowingt animals q k and pxegnan _ require an abundant•- supply of vita- mins, Fully mature animals do not feel vitamin shortage in tholr feed` to the Same extent. as young, animals de.. Vitandne A. Vitamin A is synthesized bychloro- phyllcontaining plants only,, and the richest vegetable source are the green leaves and growing parts of plants., ` Seedlings grown without light de not produce Vitamin A. Ant- . mals feeding on green plants store. •Vitamin A in their fat deposits, ao we And 1t abundant in meat fat, egg yolk and in milk fat. Marine ani mals feeding largely' on the green growth of numerous water plants store large quantities of. Vitamin A. Cod. liver • and shark liver oils aro very rich in 'this' substance. The amount of Vitamin A 1n the meat fat' and milk fat depends entirely on the amount of vitamin in the feed con - suited by the animal, The fat of grass-fed animals is rich in vitamin when compared with the fat of ani- mals fed on the dry, feeds of winter, It has been noted by- all feeders that the summer mills is mole satisfactory in the feeding of young animals. The chief diseases produced in animals deprived of vitamin A are: (1). Arrested growth and Keretomae kola; (2) Lowered resistance to bac- terial infection. (3) 'Marked effect on reproductive function, sterility. (4) Rickets and deficient dentition, Vltmin B. The body does not store this vita- min and' certain animals, if deprived of foods that contain it, for a feiv weeks develop polyneuritis, or show a -decline in body weight and muscu- lar ince-ordination. In young ani- nials deprived of foods containing Vitamin B the arrest of growth and the injurious effect' on the nervous system is more marked than it is with older animals. Vitamin B very widely distributed, being 'present In nearly: all forms of plant life; parti- cularly in seeds and yeast. The bran or husk of seeds and the gdrm are the portions where it is to be found. Highly -milled grain products are very Jeer in Vitamin B. look to green vegetables, whole grain, unpolishiid rice, milk, for this vitamin. Vitsnin C. Young- animals deprived of foods containing Vitamin.0 develop tender- ness and swelling of the joints, ten- derness of the gums, loosening of the teeth and - arked awastagemarkedf a o all the lymphoid tissues. Vitamin 0 coeurs In all growing vegetable tissue, as green vegetables,, roots, grass and fruits.. Small quantities are present in fresh meats and milk. The animal body cannot store Vitamin 0 so must depend upon supplies coming regu- larly, in the feed. During winter, sprouted grains and roots are the two main sources of this vitamin for live stock as poultry and pigs. General Effects. • Lack of vitamin In the food of ani- mals produces effects that resemble starvation. Young suffer more than mature. A. cow cannot manufacture vita- mins and put such in the milk. Bence the vitamin content of 'milk (which is the most important food of young) depends entirely upon the vitamin content of the cow's food. .Sae that. she gets a good liberal allowance of greet alfalfa. ---L.

I do not 'know how much influence T haveor how many mothers will harken to me, but I'm going to can attention this week to another injustice under which. mothers have labored for years. It will -not do any harm to, have these things pointed out, perhaps the re- medies will the sosmenbe applied: Few wrongs are righted until they are at least voiced. This. wrong and slight of which I wish to epeak is one you will note in many households, if you ate obser- vant. It usually is the more notice- able when the family` is pretty well grown, but it has its seeds in early youth. A mother will take the time and trouble to prepare a meal which she thinks will be meltable for her family and may also take pains to serve it daintily. The family gather, from 'office or field or school,- and firstone and then another makes complaint about some dish served. One cannot eat thia..and another ean- eot eat that aria someone feels just like eating something else, which mother can and. does go -and prepare as quickly as she can. She doesn't complain, (possibly experience rbcs taught her how useless it is), but her delight and pride in that meal, upon. which she had expended tine and thought and energy, is completely CC= stroyed T believe that women should take up alio business of housekeeping more es a profession and compel respect for it simply by doing it so well and so proficiently that critigism is un- called for, then she should hold her position as mistress of her art and resent any interference in her domain. "But," you say, "tastes differ, what one likes another cannot bear. You wopldnit have us all eat exactly the same things, :surely ? H Oh, no, I i wet1dn' t be so unreasonable. ,But at least half of the . notions of people about food are just notions. Perhaps as children they happened some day not to want some particular food.' Their fond mother, anxious always to please the child, goes 'and gets some- thing else, which at once pleases not only its present mood but makes it feel important. The result may be that the next time the sante dish is served it again objects and the same thing follows. The.. result is that a- nother child follows the example of the first and soon the mother has a 'whole Iist of dishes that some member of the faiiily will not eat and when she decides to serve them she has to prepare something else for this par- ticular asticular child. It doubles her work and is altogether aimoying and a lot of it --could be and: should be cttt out, One niothdg tells how she treats these "notions" on the part of her children When a child refuses to eat any particular dish she makes no fuss about it at ail, She just sees tiles he eats enough of something else on the table and when the dish is again ser- ved perhaps he will eat it without ;comment: If he persists in his refus al she still Makes eo fuss, gives th impression that it is too had -"he doe not want it, thatit is a misfertun not to be able to eat what others al eating, and the result is that he wil probably forget all about. his dis taste for this food. The childish min is flattered, by attention given to hi preferences and he Iabors to prolon the attention, If. there is nothin but a mild regret and feeling that h is unfortunate in having this parti ular taste he will soon tire of the po and forget it Of course there.a .genuine eases of repulsion again certain kinds of food on the part of child and I do not believe that a Phi should be compelled to eat a.fot which he declares he detests. It m be the means of snaking him Bete it for his whole life, There are of us who have not grown up wi some aversion which we may or ins not be able to rid ourselves of. F instance, a child may say he doers like silk. Ali right. Let hint dri water and give shim the milk you wi hies to have in• custards pudding soups, etc. He will probably for all about his notion against milk time. If he realty dislikes milk, sOme'people do all their lives, he not eat the milk puddings and sou and you will have to nourish him sol other way But to compel him drink milk when he doesn't want drink it is very likely to da the v thing you do not wish to do, turn h against milk for all time. But what I started out to say w -that all this fussing about in makes mother a dog of work and terly-discourages her. If the folk w make the lushes would• put themselt in her place they would realize h disheartening it is. If mother wt into the office or school of the flan ter •and told her how to do her off work or teach she would resent very much but she thinks nothing turning up her nose at mother's d nee, -.Loo not know how•some moth can keep cheerful about prepay meals when their families so of complain and grumble, no spatter h hard they- try to please. A, reso to master the art of serving balan meals, with a reasonable care for several preferences of each mem of the family, and a flint -hearted solve to ignore the faddy whims perfectly healthy members wo bring about emancipation for mother in many a 'household ands cidentaily, more happiness to all e eerned.
