The incident is as follows: ' “We saw a small flock of broadhills approaching. They came directly for us, but unfortunately did not stop for our decoys. As they arrived almost over us we stood up and tired. I pulled on a nice plump looking drake. He start- - ed to fall, so i turned my second load loose rather promiscuously and then started to load up. Behind.me Johnny was still shooting. Then Johnny yelled. and something hit me a mighty swat on the back of my neck. whereupon I tried to clean a big hunk of stone of its barnacles by means of my nose and front teeth. This may be pleasant to look upon, but it is not an enjoyable pastime. “I had always liked Johnny, but the thought that he had hit me on the :back of the neck and was now laugh- . ing was too much. I started for him ' with murder in my eye and a large - driftwood stick in my hand. Johnny, still in fits of laughter, pointed behind ime and mumbled some words about ‘duck.’ I looked around. and there be. hhlnd me on the rocks was the same gplump looking drake that- i had shot lat the first time. it was hard to reek ize that such a small bird had such a mighty swat.‘ “when Johnny had come out of his ‘ convulsions and I had picked .the ‘ feathers out of my back hair we look- - ed around a bit and found there were :four dead broadbills. so i cheered up :a' bit. Johnny didn't-need any cheer- ! ing up.”â€"Recreation. HE WAS THANKFUL 1 A Reporter Who ’Approciated the At- tention: of His Superior. A reporter for a Philadelphia news- ; paper was sent up the state to act as 2 stair correspondent in an important a court trial. it was the reporter’s first «ring out of town assignment. and his L-managing editor kept the telegraph " wires busy with instructions and in- ~ quiries. For two days and two nights r‘the reporter had received a dispatch ifrom his office half hourly. and it be- sgan to get on his nerves. At the end of the second day he ‘ worked until 2 o'clock in the morning, sfiled his last page of copy, received word that his story had been re- w ceived. and he went to bed. Just as he ‘ was putting out the light the hotel 2porter appeared with the inevitable x tray and the inevitable telegram. The :.reporter opened it and read: _“What time does-court open in the I‘ r morning r" it was too much. He hated the sight «z of a telegram. He had been fleeing the « curse of the dispatches only to have «them pursue him to bed. He sat down- ; and wrote to his office the most couro :- teous answer he could compose: "Court opens at 9 o'clock in the morning. it is now 3. Thank you for waking me in time."â€" Philadelphia ' Times. Balzac's Way. Jules Sandeau relates that one time ‘while living in Paris Balzac locked lvhimself up in his room for twenty-two «days and twenty-two nights, refusing to see any one and keeping the cur- ?‘talns closed and the lights continually a'rburnlng even in broad daylight. The «only human thing he saw during this "time was his servant, whom he rang ' for when he felt the need of food and ~which be washed down with numerous - cups of coffee.

"A _. . . VALUE 0!" SILAGE FOR THE STEERS ‘ Owing to the high price of roughage more interest is being taken by cattle land sheep feeders in the subject of corn silage than ever before. The I silage idea has not enjoyed much pop- ularity in feeding circles despite the fact that it has become the mainstay of the dairyman. The past winter, however, has set feeders thinking. and the fact-is dawning on many feed- ers that silage may extricate them from a dilemma in which the rapid in- crease in the feed. bill when practic- ing dry feed methods exclusively has placed them. ‘ Every feeder using silage who has marketed cattle or sheep on the mar- ket during the past three months has given a good account of it, and they are by no means a corporal's guard. some of them operating on a large scale. Now comes the Indiana experiment station with more conclusive evidence. that institution having pioneered in this sphere. Recently a professor at that station sold on the Chicago mar- ket fifteen short fed cattle that had been fed no other roughage than corn CONSTEUCTING L STAYE- 81150. silage, and, to use his own language, “results how that silage is a very economical roughage for fattening beef cattle on the short process." Four- teen of these steers realized $8 per hundredweight. and a tail ender was appraised at $7.75, pretty good prices for steers fed only 120 days. - The ration was shelled corn, cotton- seed meal and corn silage, absolutely no other roughage being used. The initial weight was 1,056 pounds; the final weight 1,361 pounds, making an average daily gain of 2.54 pounds in a season when the burden of complaint among feeders was that gains were far below normal. The feed consum- ed to the pound of gain was 6.09 pounds of shelled corn, 1.06 of cotton- seed meal and 12.67 of corn silage. This marks completion of but one stage of the experiment, but it dis- proves the theory that only a limited quantity of silage can be used and that other roughage is essential. There are seventy-five cattle on full feed at the lndiana station now to determine the merit of diaerent combinations of shelled corn, cottonseed meal, corn si- lage and clover buy. it may be added that a well known sheep expert of the lllinois experiment station is conducting a series of ex~ periments in mutton making with corn sila'ge and has already reached a con« clusion decidedly favorable. To his surprise the heaviest ration of silage used has given most satisfactory re-. suits. and even among lambs an ex- pected mortality of at least 1 per cent has not materialized THE FEEDER Dry Uncooked Corn Boot. Cooked corn docs not seem to be so good for hogs as that fed dry and un. cooked. They do not seem to make as good use of it. Putting the Flock on Pasture. The sheep will begin to get uneasy now for the pastures. Be in no hurry about letting them go. Have a good stand of gmss in the field before they are put out for the season. Keep Horses Away From Barbed Wire. Don't pasture horses or other aniâ€" mals on both sides of a wire fence, especially if it has a barbed wire at the top. They are very apt to get to tight. ing over or through it and get hurt. Feeding Pig For Pork. {The pig that is intended for port should be fed to the limit of its di- gesting capacity from the start.

I ET us look a bit into the chemistry of broad. For we" want our bread not only to J‘c’tfll good but We want it to actually he good. And as bread is a question of flour and flour a question of wheat we see that wheat is where we Thavc' to begin. Gluten, starch, water and phosphates, are the principal component qualities of wheat. And in proportion as these qualities are more or less present is the wheat more or less valuable so far as nutrition is concerned. ' The nutritive and bread- making qualities of wheat are the things that make it more valuable than ryc or oats or barley or corn as human food. The quality of nutrition, too, is what makes one brand of flour more valuable than another. If it were not for nutrition The "Chemica" oi Bread and breadâ€"making qualities any flour would be as good as any other. We wouldn’t have to care whether it was made from good wheat or poor wheat, from Spring wheat or Winter, from all wheat or part other cereals. A chemist will tell you that ROYAL HOUSEHOLD FLOUR is richer in high Puality gluten than flour made rom low grades of what. And for that reason it is better for food, hence more valuable than ordinary flour. And actual tests in your lain/mt will tell you that it produces mart and larger leave: to [/16 barrel than ordinary soft wheat or blended flour, the reason being that flour made from hard Red Fyfe wheat is more expansive and more absorbent. It is plain, common-sense that flour made from the finest hard wheat in the world and scientific- ally milled must produce the finest bread in the world. And it Jim. Try it. Prove it.
