Your natural pride and die judgment of your neighbors are satisfied. But deeper than appearance—in design, in construction, down into the detail of every cotter pin and lock nut, the Studebaker -Flanders "20" is a splendid automobile. By changing the transmission or using only the sheer necessities of automobile manufacture, we could considerably cheapen it. But then it wouldn't deserve the Studebaker name. Remem- ber that for 60 years the name "Studebaker" has stood for fhe best that can be built. There are no hidden weaknesses the Studebakeraanders "20." it is all good, a true Studebaker car.

Here, again, we should strike the happy medium. There le no denying the fact that laughter, the full, joyous hearty laughter, is very beneficial ; the laughter that fairly shakes your sides, If you are fat. "For curing gloom diseases and grouch complaints that make life miserable," says the Christian Herald, "there is nothing better than a good, hearty laugh." A new 'opathy has sprung into ex- istence—roerriopathy — the science of the healing laugh. The wise physi- clan well understands the therapeu- tic value of fun and a cheerful spirit. Laughter not only lengthens the life, bat brightens it. "A merry heart doeth good like a medicine, but a broken spirit drieth the bones." The force of this quotation has lost none of its power in these nearly twenty centuries. "Set the gloomy, discour- aged, neurasthenic invalid to laugh- ing," says the Christian Herald. "Study how to provoke smiles. Cause a few thrills of humor, how- ever, weakly, to run through the veins and to tickle the risible% The hostile forces of disease and worry and discouragement can be driven back by the benevolent microbes of mirth." The truth of this does not admit of argument. We all know how welcome the smile—if the soul is back of it—and how unwelcome the frown. And when the smile breaks forth in a peal of laughter, how it chases away the shadows. But there are various kinds of laughter. Let us analyze them. He who smiles and smiles continu- ously is foxy. He who laughs long and loud at nothing is a fool. He who laughs with the mouth and not with the eyes, is a villain. He who laughs with a little sniff at the end of the laugh is egotistical, Re who laughs not at all is either melancholy, revengeful, selfish or studious. He who laughs with eyes, mouth, cheeks and sides is a jolly, easy-going fellow that you can borrow money from. He who laughs moderately and shows his upper teeth, making little, fine wrinkles at the corners of the eyes and mouth, is a square, good- natured fellow and a good man to tie to. From a health point of view laugh- ing is to be highly recommended. Hearty laughing has a very beneflcial effect, causing the arteries to dilate and, thereby, carrying more blood to the tissues of the body and causing the heart to beat more rapidly, thus hastening the flow of blood through the vessels. In short, laughing causes the tissues to take up more nutritive material and to more properly elimin- ate the waste products, A SPLENDID HERITAGE. The recent report of the department of lands, forests and mines for Ontario is illuminating. It shows that the ag- gregate value of the mineral products increases year by year. In 1011 the output of the mines and metalliferous works of Ontario amounted to about $42,000,000. Of this amount metallic products contributed about $20,000,000 and non-metallic products $13,000,000. The yield of the silver rnines at Cobalt provides one-seventh of the world's output, the production of 1011 being 311 million ounces. The output of the nickle and copper from the Sudbury district was somewhat less than in 1010, the yield of tackle being 17,040 tons, and of copper 8,060 tons, the whole. having a value in the form of matte of about $5,000,000. The report continues : "It is evident that the mining in- dustry will prove of great service in the settlement of population in the northern parts of the province. As exploration is extended, the pre -Cam- brian formations are revealing their riches of metallic ores—gold, silver, pickle, copper, iron—and the mining camps which have already come into existance and which. are bound to spring up in the future will afford the very best market for all sorts of farm products. Now that railways are ren- dering Northern Ontario more acces- sible to prospectors, lumbermen and farmers, the natural wealth of the country, hitherto lying dormant, is being more easily and rapidly de- veloped," Such figures tell their own story of the mineral wealth of Northern Ont' ario, but the story of its poseibilitiee does not end there. It has been am- ply demonstrated that this portion of the province can sustain a large Agri. cultural population, and that it is able to raise crops not second to those of older Ontario.

Dry salt sprinkled among your furs and ceder and on your carpets is an excellent preventive of moths. Lamp chimneys will shine in a hurry if a little kerosene Li put in the water with which they are washed. A little kerosene added to warm water when washing windows, especi- ally outside, will remove the sticky condition often found better than alcohol, ammonia, or whiting. A scratch on polished furniture can be almost obliterated, by rubbing vigorously with linseed oil. A little alum put in the rinsing water will restore any faded colors. A piece dissolved in the starch will greatly improve the appearance of ginghaws, muslins and other wash goods. To get rid of ants in the pantry, wash the shelves off with hot water, in which has been dissolved as much alum as the water will take up. If this doesn't bring results, sprinkle red pepper in all crevices. Keep a small whisk -broom in the kitchen sink to wash all your pots and pans with. It removes sticky. sub- stances znuch more easily than a cloth and makes it unnecessary to put your hands in water during the process. When oilcloth is dull and shows signs of wear it will be greatly im- proved by a thin coat of varnish. If your iron sticks, rub it on brown paper that has been previously rubbed with yellow soap. Your starch will not stick if you stir it with a wax candle directly it is made. When blacking a kitchen range mix the blacklead with vinegar, if you want it to have a really good polish. Select lamp wicks which are soft and loosely woven. Soak them in vinegar, and dry in a cool oven before using. Paint an a window and glass may be easily removed by rubbing with a cloth wet in hot, strong vinegar. VENTILATE THE BEDROOM. Air and sun the room, air and sun the bedding, air and sun yourself. Toss the bedding over chairs and expose it to the sunlight, Allow the sunshine to stream into the window sufficiently long to perform its office of purification. Then if you think best close the windows and darken the room, but open the windows again ere the sun goes down and allow the air to circulate freely.. If your bed- room is so situated, open opposite windows and keep them open all night. If you have but one window to open lower the upper sash and raise the lower one. This is better than to raise the lower sash to its fullest extent, as it allows the foul and heated air to pass out of the upper opening, and the pure and less warm air to enter the lower opening thus creating its own current. Whatever else you do, do not shut out the night air. No matter how well ventilated your room may be during the day you cannot well get along without the outside air to replenish that which becomes poison- ed with the exhalations of the body as well as the exhalations of the lungs. Consider the fact that 2000 cubic feet of fresh air are required every hour to keep the system in proper con- dition. Remember, also, that air twice breathed contains enough car- bonic acid gas to extinguish a light. If you wish to awaken refreshed, see to it that your bedroom is aired by day and yentilated by night. Do not fear the night air; it is the only air you can get at night.

Oftentimes the breeder is proud when he has had dropped upon his farm a heifer calf, the off. spring or the best cow he ever owned and a bull whose worth and value have been verified by older offspring and by the many exeellent butter records set forth in bis pedigree, writes J. P. Fletcher in the American Cultivator. Only the breeder with long experi. encs can tell you how often his hopes have been blighted and bow often when this calf comes to cowhood she proves herself to be one of the commonest ot cows. This result will often occur, no mat- ter how efficient her care and feeding hive been during her younger days, while she was coming to maturity, but oftentimes her worthlessness can right. fully be attributed to a lack of proper conditions at some period in her life that tend toward proper development In many instances the first year of the helfer's life she is well fed and cared for, because the breeder and feeder well known the ailments that beset poorly fed calves. He well knows that unless good eare and feed are provided the calf will die, but when the heifer The Jersey has been established as a distinct breed for a very long time. For at least 200 years it has been kept free from crossing with other breeds of cattle on its native island, to which no cattle are allowed to be imported except for immediate slaughter. This long maintained purity of blood has fixed the breed charactertistics of the Jersey and given the race its renowned prepoteney—the ability to transmit to offspring the charac- tertlsies of the parents. The Jer- sey shown herewith is of the .Amer- ican type. becomes a yearling she presents a well grown and vigorous body, and in case the cows in milk and the younger calves fin the barn she is the one that must remain out in the cold and suffer the effects of snow, cold rains and sleet. As a matter of fact, good cows are those that have had good care from the day they were born until they reach maturity, but I am confident that those which have a setback in growth while they are calves develop into better cows than those whose growth and development are checked when they are yearlings, because before they have time to recuperate they are bred, end then a portion of their food and energy Is devoted to producing a fetus, and milk production following this keeps the heifer ever afterward busy, so that her time for development is past. In view of the fact that dairy heifers are bred young, they should be eared for in such a way that they may attain the greatest amount of growth, stamina and power during their young- er days. Puling the first two winters they should have access to well bed- ded. dry and warm quarters. They should be well fed on foods that tend to stimulate bone and muscle produc- tion, and for this oats and bran, with clover or alfalfa hay for roughage, have no superior. Prenatal Influence. Professor Evvard of Iowa experi- mented to find what the Influence of different feeds given to the sows would hare upon the number and vigor of the pigs. Thirty-five gilts were divided into seven lots of five each, and corn was made the basis of the various feeds fed to each lot. The lot which was fed corn alone produced the smallest nutn- ber in litters, the weakest pigs and the lightest weigtzt per pig. The sows fed corn and alfalfa produced the largest and fattest pigs, though their number was a trifle smaller than those pro- duced by sows fed on a ration consist- ing of four pounds of meat meal to thirty pounds of ear corn, and another lot fed on a mixture of corn, oats, bran, middlings and oil meal. The corn alone pigs averaged 1.74 pounds at birth, while the corn and alfalfa pigs averaged 2.29 pounds, which ms the heaviest average of any tth:l showed a gain of 82 per cent in weight, besides being much better pigs. How the Dairyman Is Fined. Dairy farming is u rigid, merciless court where there is no escape from paying the fines imposed. The farmer Is fined in good round dollars in this court if be keeps poor cows; if be has unhealthy stables; if he does not pro. vide plenty of pure air, water and feed; if he feeds an unfitting, unbalanced ta- tion; If he does not rate for his milk and cream in a sanitary manner; if he does not provide improving blood for the building up of his herd. Lastly, but not least, he Is fined most seriously if tie undertakes to denl with all these questions with an ignorant, uninforne ed mind. There Is no escape, no lip - pealing to the mercy of the tour% no remitting of the fines. Refusal to make a serious study of the business of dairying is just where and how so many are heavily tined ID this court..—Ileard's Dairyman. _ Question Not Answered.
