Causae ef Monaoona A monsoon I a wind that blows long the Aslatlo roaat of the Pacific over the extent of about 49 degrees latitude, In winter from the northeast (dry monsoon) and In eummer more violently from the aouthweat (wet monsoon). The wind Is due to the differences of pressure between areas of land and aoa which are primarily caused by seasonal difference ot tem perature. Clocks and Watches To keep the works of a watch clean, and to Insure that It will run smoothly, rut piece ot white paper the site of the cover, and after aoaklng the paper In petrol, place It In the Inner case of the watch.

The minister's father hsd been a mlsalunary to Burma, and bad been killed by an augry Burmese official. Hluce then the Burmese official bad died, leaving an only son, who was ths Idol of the people. The son was now old enough to nil the tacancy left by tbe death of his father, and a great celebration was In preparation. lie had embraced the Christian faith, and today, with some other Datives, waa to be bsptlsed. He wss the first to be immersed, aa his rank gave him precedence over the others. Tbe Ut ile group of Christians stood spsrt on the bsnk of the river. "I shsll never forget your face," the deacon continued, "when your mother told yon your father bsd been killed yon Just stared oh, here we are" Tbe water swept op to the knees of the mluliter as be followed the da con to the place Indicated for the solemn aervlre; while swayed by the passion ot the descoo's words, his whols life ftsahed before him in a few brief pictures. Hrat, hs aaw his esrly childhood spent by bis fsther's side, full of rich' Bras, beauty, and happiness then the awful wrench to bis boyhood when his father was killed.

The anguish of ths old frenzy wss coming back, holding him in terrorised suapenae.

The voice of the singer on the shore quivered out Its warmth and light The crowd on ths bank stood with bare, bowed heads, for Abdul was their Idol.

The slender body of the young Bur mese sank beneath ths ripple of the river's wooing, Under Its disturbed surface no one snw the long, sinewy fingers of the minister as they closed about the allin throat No one saw their cruel twist as they were burled In bis flush, nor beard the bones crsck as be wrenched and wrung his victim beneath the water. No one heard the death gurgle; Do one saw ths death atruggla nor the bright npurt ot blood that drenched the min ister's dripping cutTs; no one saw the brutal heel that finished the masterly piece of work; no one knsw that Abdul waa dead until they saw the deacon lay him, limp and motionless, at bis mother's feet, and beard the terrible shriek that filled every apace about the river, ever it and across it There wss a dumb, sickening si- leuee; then the crowd on the river bank went mad.

VMK SELECT PURE-BRED SIRES WITH CARE TJalug any kind of a pnre bred sire will not Insure success. Poor snlmals are produced occasionally In pure-bred herds and judgment Is needed in se lecting a pure-bred sire. A poor Indi vidual with s registration certificate back, of him may be some better than grade with no pedigree, but that will not make him a prolHuble Investment A good sire needs to be a well bal anced individual, he should be by a proven sire, out of a high-producing dam, snd with plenty of good produc ing ancestry back of-them. The bent proof of a good sire Is to have produced uniformly good off spring, but sueh sires are not often for ssle except at fcish prices. If an animal cannot produce good offspring, neither pedigree or show type Is of much vslue, but It Is unlikely that such a combination will occur. ' True type Is Just the best form that accord ing to all the experience of breeders Is likely to produce good results. A good pedigree Is one which, sccording to all the lawa of animal breeding, should produce good results. A com bination nf the two in a herd sire should guarantee autlsfactory off spring as far aa one Can judge with out an actual test In the herd. To get the most value out of pure bred aires always use animals of the ssme breed. Crossing breeds msy sometimes produce hlgh-grsde Indi viduals from the standpoint of pro duction, but It breaks np the lines of heredity so that no continuation of good qualities Is likely. If, however, one Ones pure bred sires of one type, for ten years or more, he will pro duce a high grsde herd with a high selling value, excellent sppesrsnce and high production combined.

Good Feeding Pays Well in Production of Milk It Is a well-established fact thst It nsuslly pays to feed heavy producers llbersi amount of the right kind of concentrated feeds. The records of a herd of seven pure-bred cows In the Grtnnell-Newton Cow Testing sssocls tlon of Iowa again demonstrated this fact - - Each month the feed was chsnged on tills herd of cows atil the total amount waa Increased. There was a stesdy Increase In the amount of milk and butterfat produced as well as In totsl profit even though the cost of producing a pound of butterfat re mained practically constsnt In other words, the Increase In the amount of concentrates did not cheapen the cost of producing a pound of butter fat, but the Increase In production made a greater net profit In February the rowa were fed ear corn and whole onts with silage and alfalfa hay. In Mfirrh the grain mix ture was corn and rob meal, six parts; prepared dairy feed, three parts ; bran, three parte, and onts, one pert The feed cost per rnvr Incressed $1.53, while the net profit wss Increased $ 12.01. In April the supply of slfalfa and silage bees me limited so thst It was necesssry to cut down on these feeds and further increase the con centrales. Some oil meal wss fed. The total feed cost waa slightly in creased as well aa a alight Increase In the cost of producing a pound of but terfat This would show that It does not pay lo overfeed on concentrates at the expense of roughages, such as silage snd alfulfa hay. Creatures of Habit Cows, like the rest of us, are crea tures of hnblt ; when you get them In the bahlt of getting their grain or hsy at a particular time, they miss It It they do not get It Feed your different feeds In rotation, the same every dny and at the same time of day. That Is all there Is to that The same with giving them water. Don't water one day In the morning, and the next ay at night WOWOKKhWOhh000& Dairy Notes Maintenance of the proper speed and even pressure on the separator handle Is an Important factor In the separation ot milk and cream. Alfalfa hay la at the top of the list of roughages for the dairy row, be csuse of Its high protein content and Its polatublllty. see Although an extremely efficient ma chine, the modern cream separator Is highly refined In construction and can not be abused. see The cleanest and sweetest cream Is obtained when milk Is separated Im mediately after milking and then cooled to near fifty degrees. e e For dairy cows ensilage should be fed at the rate of about three pounds to every hundred pounds live weight with hay. see Silage alone will not Inanre cheap milk. Its "twin" must alio be avail able. Legume hay must be supplied If we art to secure the most milk per acre. . PPIRTI A Nn I KJSX 1 LatALMJ Portland, Oregon.
