years, however, the teeth begin to get
narrower and at the end of the ninth
year there Is considerable space be
tween them. From this time on they
keep shrinking, discoloring, and Anally
begin to drop out ono by one. If a
cow has horns the age may be esti
mated quite accurately by adding two
to the number of rings on the horns.
After a little practice In examining
mouths one can tell Just about how
old a cow is by looking at her teeth.

General Catlin Explains Why

Feeding Calves For Best Growth
By good care and proper feeding
several dollars may be added to the
value of any calf during the first year.
The total Increase by this means
would amount to millions of dollars
to the dairy fanners of the state.
Young calves need whole milk for
the first few days. Skim milk Is a
cheap feed for calves, but should be
fed carefully in limited quantities and
only while it Is warm and sweet Skini
milk may form the principal diet of
the calf for six months to a year. Fac
tory skim milk should always be pas
teurized to "avoid the spread of tuber-
It Isn't nice to swear In type. Neither

It was told by Brigadier General Catlin
In his book, "With the Help of God and
a Few Marine's." Belleau Wood Is the
setting.
The General had given his troops the
Older to advance. His last words were
as they started across the wheat field?
under a wltberln Ore, "Give 'em hell,
boys."
"Some one has reported." the Gen
eril continues, "that they advanced on !blc or little.

Lusltanla.' If they did I failed to hear
It-
"Somehow that doesn't sound like
I the sort of things the Marines say un

' Theu General Catlin tells what they
did say. When the lines were waver

, "Come on you , do you
want to live forever'"

an economic loss, although a moral
gain. We can meet tt only by sav
ing. The government Is coming to us
next month with tho Victory Liberty
Loan the last of tho Liberty Loans.
Thoro aro sound financial and eco
nomic reasons why the Victory Loan
should be brought again to tho peo
ple. The govommont could make us
save by heavy taxes right now, but It
prefers tho less harsh and wiser
course of borrowing our savings now
and taxing on tho installment pldn, a
little each year.
Leave Banks Free.
Now If the people tako tho loan,
s they must, the banks will be left
free to lend to tho farmer, the manu
facturer, tho grocer, the butcher, and
the baker so they can get busy ngaln.
Then production nnd business will
grow and, by the formula, prices will
ccme to normal. Then we shall all
know "where wo aro at" and get
straightened out again.
If wo "leave It to the banks," they
,'wlll havo "no funds" left for buslnoss.
We, ourselves, will not
be saving and the day of our redemp
tion will only bo postponed. Thore
will result Inevitable Inflation and the
continuance of high and abnormally
fluctuating Drlces.
It Is called the Victory Loan be
cause the money It will bring In was
spent to force victory over Germany.
