which include four modern build
ings with an up-to date equipment.
It occupies a block of ground on
Main street. There will be no
work outside of a factory that ctn
not hi done here, and all lathe
work and o'.her kinds of difliculi
repair will be and is done here as
well and as cheaply as anywhert'
and with as much dispatch.
The main chop of the llodron
' plant has just been completed and
is a . building 30x04 feet floored,
and well arranged with the lathe
and other machines and all ar

is 50x00 feet and built of corrn
gated iron, and when complete wili

lire proof arrangements. Th
regular stall room for the garag
will be for 1G cars and the capacity
will, in a pinch, be crowded to 20,
while six cais is the limit for the
(hop in which much space is occu
jiid by machinery.
The shop force is at present com
pofed of four men and the number
will be increased as the demand
grows. The plant is a busy place
and from one to four or more ma
chines are on hand constantly for
supplios or repairs. There is no
way for an estimation of the num
ber of transient machines as yet,
but several are oh the streets and
about the qarsge dailyv

jnusf of bard milking cows Is so little

bat the disposal of such animals Is
teeounted for In that way. But If
tockmeii knew bow easy It Is to over
Mime hard milking In both cows snd
boilers I am sure that no animal would
be disposed of for lack of treatment.
Hard milking Is due to an abnormal

when a cow loses her milk it la doe to

ANTIQUITY OF DICE.
Origin of Thttt Osvices Buried In ths
Rsmote Past.
Scholars have delved In vain for tbe
origin of dice, wblcb, lu various
8 ha pes, have been used lu forms of
worship and religious ceremonies since
the da wo of history. Tbelr earlier use
was fur the forecasting of events and
obtaining of divine guldauce. Tbelr
aduptutlon to a game of chance was
comiMiratlvely unite recent.
There la a surprising number ot
varieties of dice, but they may be di
vided Into two general classes. Tbe
most familiar form Is the cube, Wltb
two exceptions the Korean uud Ktrus-cnn-cublcul
dice have tbe spots so ar
ranged that tbe six and one, ttve and
two and three and four are opposite,
milking tbe sum ot the opposite sides
invariably seven, lu all ugos tbe num

Mak the Yard Attractive.
About tbe Urst thing a trareler sees
of a town be Is entering by rail is tbe
back yards abutting on tbe railroad.
More often than uot tbe view Is far
from pleasing and la calculated to tra
ils a bad Impression. This Is so evil
that can be easily remedied itf a little
labor cu tbe part of the householders,
and tbe benefits are easily apparent
Tbe good example set by a woman's
town Improvement society of Illinois
might be followed with like excellent
results. It offered good sized cash
premiums to the householders who
could show the cleanest and prettiest
back yards along tbe railroad tracks.
Ureut Improvement quickly became
manifest
The Social Club.
A well managed and prosierous o-
clal club Is a good tblug for a town.
It provide recreation for Us members
snd brings tbcin Into closer acquaint
ance and often develops Into an organ
ization of more lofty slms and uobler
purposes. Many social clubs have been
reorganized Into Improvement socle-
ties, tbe members of which bsve Im
proved and built up unsightly towns
snd made them healthier and better
places to live In.
