This fact has been demonstrated by experiments carried on by the U. S. Department of Agriculture. Because of the prevalence of this erroneous notion, curing in the winrow has been very commonly advocated in the past. It is recognized, however, that hay cured in this manner retains more of its leaves and therefore has a higher feeding value.

A good orcehstra dosen't make poor cooking taste any better. Hold fast to your illusions--they'll keep you young and happy. Be patient--you probably get on somebody's nerves yourself. Hard work is better tonic than yon can buy at a drug store. Every married man thinks he would be rich if he had remained single. It's more sensible to try to reduce costs than to wish for higher prices. It's seldom the bankers take over a business that dosen't need taking over. When you can't please everyone, try to please your own best self. Many women would rather manage a man than be the president of the United States. The man who will "get it out on time" is the man who will eventually run the boas a neck-and-neck race for his job. _ . Bridge Party! , M*. and Mrs. J, R.
