DEAN 2ND AND MORRISON PORTLAND, OREGON DAIRY FACTS TANK HEATERS ARE FAVORED Whan Milk Cows Are Watered Infra quently It Is Poor Policy to Supply Ice Water. When a cow drinks water, her body at once sets to work raising It, If necessary, to the same temperature as exists normally In the body. In order to warm the water taken In, heat Is just as necessary as it Is to warm a kettle of water on the stove. To provide the heat necessary, the blood and Internal organs give up a portion of their supply until more Is supplied from food "previously con sumed. As the milk cow is a heavy consumer of water, much heat Is re quired to warm it. Consequently when cows are allowed "to drink water that Is very cold, a high percentage of the feed eaten Is required to heat It. If It 1 true that some heat 18 being given off from the body all the time and when the amount of water taken in at one time Is small the loss is un important. But when the cows are watered only once or twice dally, and then get near ice water, they are like ly to suffer Injury and more feed Is necessary. Stated briefly, it Is a ques tion of balancing good feed and the cow's time digesting it, against the cost of a good tank heater and a few palls of cobs or coal. The man Inter ested in getting the most out of his cows and In their comfort will not expect them to be their own tank beaters. SILAGE READY WHEN NEEDED Mistaken Idea to Think That Certain Time Must Elapse Before Feeding to Stock. What Is the best time to begin feed ing silage, Is a question which Is In teresting many dairy farmers.

Experiments made-at the state col leges of the country Indicate that fer mentation starts almost as soon as the, corn Is placed In the silo, and that the greatest change takes place during the first five days after filling. After 1?. days, fermentation is practically com plete, and the silage undergoes very little modification after two weeks. Some farmers do not know that sil age will keep for a long time. Ex periments indicate that silage Is as palatable after several years as (hat which has been kept only a few months. . Although moldy silage apparently does not injure mature cows, It has been found to affect the health of calves and horses. To be on the safe side, careful farmers discard the moldy silage from the top of the silo. REAL VALUE OF DAIRY COW Moit Reliable Method Is to Figure Her Actual Butterfat Produc tion by Weight. The most reliable way of getting at the real value of a dairy cow Is to fig ure her actual butterfat production. This can be done by weighing the milk produced by each cow and by deter mining the per cent of butterfat through occasional tests of the milk with a Babcock tester.

LOUIS RAYBOLD lii, mil, by aUClur N. it..) "Well," said Uncle Jack at the breakfast table, as be unfolded bis uapkln with one flick, "1 suppose next week I have to make a sacrifice of myself, neglect my business, aud waste the whole of a rare June afternoon. How about it, Billy?" Ills young nephew, at the sound of bis name, lifted . uncomprehending eyes from his matutinal egg-toast-cocoa combination. "What you say, Uncle Jack?" be asked. "Ob, nothing. Nothing at all. At least, nothing of Importance. I mere ly remarked" here this exasperating young man paused, then added Im pressively "that the circus, the really, truly circus, stupendous, uupara lelled " "Circus, Uncle Jack? Circus? Ob, gosh, Uncle Jack, going to take me?" Now the reader must be Immediate ly disabused regarding Uncle Jack's apparent reluctance to go to the cir cus. Uncle Jack would rather go to the circus than do almost anything else, unless It were to spend the equiv alent hours In the company of Miss Caroline Prescott an alternative, however, which was out of the ques tion. For only yesterday Jack with con siderable vehemence for him, bad told that tantalizing young woman that he was beastly sick of being fifth vice president In the firm of devoted Fetch & Carriers l'or her ladyship and was ready to sell out all shares at once to the latest comer. Caroline had re turned a retort discourteous, and, an other one of the vice presidents arriv ing Inopportunely, Jack had taken tui abrupt departure. Now the question reasonably arises as to Just why Jack should have ex pected any special consideration. He did so on the grounds of having squired Caroline ever since he bad first held her miniature umbrella over ber bead on the way to kindergarten and of having asked her to marry him semi-annually ever since she was sev enteen and he nineteen some five or six years ago. But with each passing year she had added new charms and piquancies which attracted new admir ers until It looked as if her old-time companion would be crowded out of the running. So much for the preliminaries which helped to bring about Billy's circus trip. Sailor-suited and exuberant, he trotted along by his uncle's side and explored the dusty environs of the grounds, poked peanuts at the trunk waving elephants, gazed - rapturously at South American anteaters and Aus tralian marsupials suddenly and un scientifically become neighbors, and finally in the awed silence of expec tancy, entered the big tent and headed for grandstand seats. "Walt, uncle. There's Jean. Walt, Uncle Jack I" "Now BUI, if we expect to get our seats before someone else does never sat In my own seat at a circus yet, Bill!" For Billy was tugging backward at his uncle's hand. "Walt for Jean. She's hurrying like everything. Her Aunt Caroline " . At the name, Jack halted abruptly, and somewhere In the back of his mind an association of Ideas began to form. Jean Caroline's niece 1 Yes, there they were, sure enough, although from Caroline's unconcern he felt sure she had not seen him. Fresh and cool In green linen and wide hat. Lord I how attractive she was and what a darn shame he couldn't follow his im pulse to rush wildly over. . Yet dignity demanded that he stick by his guns. Through the performance which fol lowed, Jack was quite as conscious that Caroline was sitting directly In back of him, three rows up, as if he had had eyes In the back of his bead, or as If Billy hadn't told him. He held himself stiffly and refused to re lax even at the utmost efforts of sear human monkeys or bouncing clowns. Why had Caroline come to the circus without bringing along at least one of her escorts? The afternoon seemed as long to Jack as It was brief for Billy, but the moment finally arrived when the last chariot race had been won, the span gled beauty bad defied death and the laws of gravity for the last time, and the greatest show on earth, In a blare of trumpets, was over until evening. Jack rose, determined not to glance around, yet somehow or other in the slowly-moving crowd Jamming- the aisles he managed to keep always In sight a bit of green linen. Half-way to the entrance one of those Inexpli cable occurrences took place which arise from very small beginnings. A muffled explosion from an automobile outside, the roar of a hungry Hon In Its cage something alarmed the mob at one of the exits. Immediately the spirit of panic permeated the atmos phere. People who bad been patient ly waiting space to move, pressed for ward. Common sense Indicated that in a moment the place couldn't help but empty Itself. Yet In that moment how much could happen I Somehow, Jack got Billy on bis shoulder, elbowed a bit shead, and slipped his arm about a figure In green linen. "Keep tight bold of the young ster," he urged, and managed to draw the two of them out on to a row of seats. . "There! That's better!" he said. "Although the trouble's over, I Im agine." Then be began to feel em barrassed and avoided looking directly at Caroline, whose own cheeks were rosy. Billy unintentionally Increased the tension. "I guess," be began Impor tantly, "you're glad, Miss Caroline, I told you my Uncle Jack was going to take me to the circus. I guess" "Caroline I Did you did you know" "It was a satisfactory circus," said Caroline. "Wasn't It?" "Oh, Caroline," said Jack humbly, so low that the children couldn't hear, even If they bad not been comparing notes, "I'm sorry for all I said that afternoon. Take me back and I'll I'll be office boy!" But Caroline, who still retained a thrilling memory of the feel of Jack's arm about her waist, shook her head gently. "Let's go Into partnership," she murmured, "and freeze out the others I" "Don't forget, Uncle Jack," remind ed Billy, whose upbringing was dletetl cally perfect "I can have some pop corn and pink lemonade. It's a spe cial occasion, you know I" "A special occasion? I'll say It Is, old man!" exclaimed his uncle fervently. ON THE BERKELEY CAMPUS 8cene Presented at University of Cali fornia Has Been Likened to Musleal Comedy. On the University of California campus-the sun blazes on a white cam panile, on the white faces of huge new buildings, on the mountainous, smooth brown hills that climb up behind the campus, and far out through the haze,, on the blue of San Frnnclsco bay. In stead of sober New England elms, are altltudlnous, half tropical eucalyptus, with rustling, gray green leaves and aromatic scent that somehow reminds one of Australia or Kipling's lndja and saddle horses and slightly arrogant "coVn'nls" In rlillPT clothes. The lawns are spotted with curious, low spreading, Japanese-looking trees, and under these trees students squat on the grass with their books boys and girls from California orchard and vineyard country, Filipinos, Russians, Japs and Chinese. The campanile bells chime, and out of the white buildings they pour In droves there have been as many as 13,000 undergraduates at Berkeley boys In corduroy trousers and class caps, girls 4n pink and sky blue silk sweaters, In all sorts of cos tumes, from severe black and white collars to French heels and picture hats. In the pause between recitations yon will see a great covey of these airy, fairy coeds laughing at one end of a broad marble entrance, while a crowd of boys, with an earnestness and aban don Impossible at 11 o'clock In the morning In the more self-conscious East, are roaring "close" harmony at the other. ' To anyone accustomed to the stern monastlclsm of Cambridge or Princeton, It Is like a scene from a musical comedy. Arthur Kuhl In Harper's. , Giant Butterflies. It Is said that in the northern part of New Guinea there are butterflies so large that the natives hunt them with the bow and arrow. They belong to the species Troides chlmaera and they are not only among the largest, but among the rarest butterflies- In tha world. Some specimens measure eleven and one-half Inches across the wings. The males, which are very shy, are found only at certain hours of the day and at the tops of lofty blossom-bearing trees. The natives sometimes shoot the butterflies with four-pronged arrows, and sometimes capture them In nets made of spiders' webs. The first specimens were taken to London not so long ago by Meek, who had spent more than twenty years In New Guinea hunting rare varieties of birds and Insects for American and Euro pean collections. Washington Star. Monosyllable Language. In the monosyllabic languages the words are composed of simple mono syllabic roots Isolated, and, as a rule, Independent of one another. In this elementary form of language, the root words correspond In their essence with general conceptions only, and are unrestricted by any notions of person, gender, number, time, mood, or relationship. The principal monosyllabic lan guages are the Chinese, Annamese, Siamese, Burman and Tibetan. To these may be added the Pegu In Brit ish Burma, and the Kassla, confined to a small district In the south of As sam. " True Way to Make Discoveries. "Never refuse to see what you do not want to see or which might go against your own cherished hypoth esis or against the views of authori ties. .These are Just the clues to fol low up, as is also and emphatically so the thing you have never seen or heard of before. The thing you cannot get a pigeonhole for is the finger point showing the way to discovery." This advice to scientists and others was given In a lecture by Sir Patrick Manson, the celebrated British physi cian who discovered that malaria is caused by mosquitoes. A Property Car.

O THE RIGHT THING ffAe RIGHT TIME By MARY MARSHALL DUFFEE TABLE DECORATIONS It Is a bad plan that admits of no modi fications. Fublius Syrus. TT HAS been said that decorative flowers are; even more Important In the arrangement of the dinner table than the knives and forks; and true it Is that the wise hostess takes as much thought in arranging her center piece as In seeing that the silver Is freshly polished and properly ar ranged. A fat pocketbook is not the only tiling needed to make a tusfeful ilurul arrangement on the dinner table. In fact, one need have very little money to spend in order to make an attrac tive and tasteful arrangement. An over-elaborate arrangement is no longer In good taste. Towering floral structures that really look like noth ing so much as the "set pieces" that the florists prepare for far less Joyous occasions are really quite bad, and the careful hostess does not leave the matter to the florist, but makes sure that something very simple In ar rangement is selected. Except for a children's party or a dinner that is to be given In a spirit of extreme in formality, paper decorations are not In good taste either. A cluster of roses or any other hothouse or garden flowers attractively arranged In a glass or silver vase Is a charming se lection. The addition of ferns or snil lax adds to the effectiveness. The vase may be placed either on a bit of embroidered or luce-trlnmied linen or on a mirror that reflects the flowers and candles so as to add to the gen eral effectiveness of the arrangement. A short time ago some of the shops offered for sale rather splendid-looking centerpiece devices that combined a vase placed at the center of a silver standard and little bonbon or salted nut baskets that were hung up on the sliver brackets that cume out from the standard on all sides. This was rather a clever arrangement, but It was not In the best taste, for nowadays we do not use food as part of the center decoration, as was the case when won derful centerpieces wera made of spun sugar and pastry. The only exception to tills rule Is In fuvor of choice fruits occasionally combined with the flowers. ( by McClure Newspaper Syndicate.) o Earliest Known Machine.

The fragrance of plants is not for man's pleasure; it iu u means of at tracting Insects to fortlllze them. The object of many present-day florists Is to Improve a flower in its coloring, size and substance In short to "paint the lily." They cannot Improve the fragrance, which Is perhaps the reason they seem to care so little for Its dis appearance under their handling. Ex change. Birds and Animals Exterminated.
