" Overfeeding of skim milk and alfalfu hay, or filth in pens, mangers and feed buckets are the causes for most calf troubles, says E. A. Hanson, dairy extension specialist. University Farm, St. Paul. When scours appear, at once reduce the amount of milk and grain fed, advises Mr. Sanson, as well as changing to timothy hay, if alfalfa or clover is being fed. Tails and utensils for calf feeding should always be washed each day and placed in the sunlight. Newborn calves should be allowed to have the first, or colostrum mill: from their dams, as this is an aid to the digestive system. Whole milk should be fed for the first three or four weeks. After this, the change from whole milk to skim milk may be made by adding one pound of skim milk and taking away one pound of whole milk daily until all skim milk is being fed. Healthy, vigorous calves can take one pound of skim milk for each 10 pounds of live weight nntil they are consuming 16 pounds daily.

Record-Making Cows Are Now Milked by Machines The prejudice w^hich still exists against the milking-machine among some dairymen is entirely unjustified, says a dairy expert in the Farm Journal. Where better results are not obtained than by hand-milking the explanation usually is not that the machine is at fault but that its user Is cureless in cleaning and caring for it, he observes. Positive proof of the efficiency of # the machine It - offered by recent world records set by two Holstein cows. One of the cows, a Holstein owned by John G. Ellis, Lee, Mass., has made three world's records by the meclianical-milker route. Her latest record is 701 pounds of fat in 305 days. For six srilars Ellis has been doing machine milking, and in the past five years his cows have made 13 world's records. He is producing grade A milk for the New York market. The other record cow is a Holstein owned by Charles Hughes & Son, Neenah, Wis. As a four-year-old, she produced 642 pounds of fat, 20,114 pounds of milk, in 365 days. All this milk was drawn by a mechanical milker, twLce-a-day milking. m Ik' Thorough Workera Voice From Upstairs--Haven't yon two finished hanging that mistletoe jretT Sweet Thing--Yes, mamma, bat we're just testing it Ambition'* Strength We frequently pass from love to ambition, but one seldom returns from ambition to love.--La Rochefoucauld.

By JANE OSBORN (Copyright.) «Y ES, oar business offices are lo- CM ted out here at the factory," Margaret Drew was saying with a smile to the telephone receiver. "But, of course, I wouldn't want to ask you to come so far out of your way for out little business conference. It happens that I am to be up In the business section today. I can quite easily drop in at your office--" **Oh, I wouldn't think of putting you to that trouble. Miss Drew," came back the man's voice. And Margaret frowned a little. "But I would very much rather (mil at your office. It's so--noisy here-- with the machinery--" And Margaret, having won her point--and got this Mr. John Bailey's consent to call at his office Instead of having him call at her "factory"-- hung up the telephone with a sigh of relief. A<g.ta matter of fact Margatfet^sk offices alid factory occupied ^ ^total floor space of about twenty by fifteen feet. She was sitting in what she called the outer office--there was a telephonetable and two chairs. There -were four closets off the room which with the one window and the door into the outside hall pretty nearly filled the available wall space. On one of these closets was neatly painted the sign--"Private. M. C. Drew, Pres." Behind that door were a few shelves on which were stowed a battered typewriter and some boxes. Another door was marked with the neat sign, "Shipping Department-- Positively No Admittance," and behind that door was a larger closet in which were neatly stored a supply of candy boxes, hammer, screwdriver, nails and a few empty wooden boxes. The third closet TT99 lftrge enough to stand In. Thfcrfc Wd8 6he small window and on a shelf by the window a three-btirher gas stove. On other higher shelves on the opposite side were neatly arranged kettles, cans and canisters, paper bags and pasteboard boxes. On the outside of the door into this more spacious closet were painted the "words, "KITCHEN-- Please use other entrance." But even with these deceptions Margaret did not wish to have the important advertising expert see the pathetic limitations of her budding candy factory. Entirely convinced of the goodness of the sweets which she was able unaided to make end pack in her small quarters she had inserted an advertisement in the current number of a fashionable magazine which stated that on receipt ot twenty-five cents in stamps she would send a sample box of the New Sweets that society folk were talking about, Within a week had come just enough twenty-five centses to pay for the advertisement, but not the materials used in the making of the candy. Still, Margaret was not discouraged. And she had also received on very Impressive letter-head stationery a letter from the Universal Advertising company suggesting that there cplght be advantage in a conference between a member of the firm of the Universal Advertising company and the advertising director of the New Sweet Candy concern. The result was the telephone conversation between Mr. Bailey and Margaret. But she didn't even get to the elevator in the office building mentioned on the letter-head paper of the Universal Advertising company, for as she entered the building she was approached by an entirely presentable young man who asked her whether she were not Mrs. Drew. "Miss Drew--Margaret Drew," she corrected, and then the young man said he was John Bailey of the Universal Advertising company and that it had occurred to him that it might be pleasanter if they discussed business over a cup of tea or coffee or something. ' He escorted her not to any of the fashionable hotels in the neighborhood but to a popular lunch room with gleaming white tables where poffee was served in thick cups with paper napkins. Margaret had heard that it was considered quite smart to go to those places. She talked of her candy factory rather vaguely and Mr. Bailey talked with a vagueness that Margaret did not detect of the Universal Advertising company. Then John Bailey seemed to shake off all formality of manner and began to laugh. "Let's be frank," he said. "I'm Just a beginner--on my own entirely. I've got desk room in a dingy, dark office in that building. But I'm going to win out--I think I can pull some big sitltt in candy advertising--" I wish I had let you come to see my place, then," said Margaret. "I'm all there is to the staff, too. But I've got a three-burner stove besides the desk and tejejjjione. If you'll have faith in m^^why, I'll have faith in you." ' Two days later when Margaret and John met at Margaret's "factory" they made plans for joining forces. Margaret would proceed with the candy making--and John Bailey would go in tooth and nail to build up the business side of the undertaking. And thus began the J. and M. Candy company which has since grown to such enormous proportions--and thus began also the romance that resulted just a year later in „tl>o marriage of the president and the vice president of the thriving concern. 15,1930 On Sunday evening, Herbert Pea cock passed away.

American Ways Rapidly Getting Hold in Sweden Stockholm.--The gradual Americanization of Sweden is noticeable everywhere in the Country, but Is most pronounced in Stockholm. The citizens of the capital like American novels, magazines, dramas, musical comedies and, especially, motion pictures. The advent of the "talkies" bad a distinct effect upon the everyday language. and such typical American slang phrases as "All right, kid." "O. K.." "Hello, baby." "So long" or."Howdy" are heard frequently. Dally life also is influenced by American habits In foods and clothing. Grapefruit and orange juice are t^rved tftr breakfast, while "hot dogs" are sold all over the city. Shoe shine parlors are springing y up in many places and even American soda fountains are found here and there. American suits and hats, toilet preparations, office appliances, automobiles, chewing gum and cigarettes find increasing numbers of bugers, while records of BroaWay telodies are played in homes and music stores. Even Rotary clubs have been started in several cities. Tipsy Undertaker Makes Afternoon Funeral Late *Brunn, Czechoslovakia.--Because an employee of the undertaking establishment which had the burial arrangements in charge got tipsy and forgot to call at the hospital mortpary for the body, friends of the late J.

A rush order was given for a motor hearse as soon as the reason for the delay was discovered, but night had already fallen before It could reach the cemetery.

The important thing 4iow is to tell you what this new motor / <»il will do for your car. First of all, it means a tremendous reduction in the carbon nuisance. New , I so-Vis Oil actually reduces carbon formation far below most oils selling today at premium prices. One reason for this is the fact that New I so-Vis is a wholly distilled oil. Made by a special process, its sturdy body is not obtained by the usual method of adding undistilled parts of the crude. x New Iso-Vis also makes possible better lubrication at extremes of temperature-- both high and low. It not only gives better starting, and a. free flow of oil in cold weather, but it does not break down under high engine temperatures* In addition, New Iso-Vis resistsdih^* tion and will not thin out in your crankcase. The enormous importance of this feature cannot be exaggerated. Ninety percent of all crankcase dilution takes place during the first 200 miles of driving. By overcoming this dila- > tion,Iso-Vis assures you of lubrication not only when your oil is fresh bat right up until die time you change* With Iso'-Vis, the jmportant reason for changing oil is nbt because of thinking out--but because it is impossible to prevent a certain amount of dirt from getting into the crankcase which must be removed by drainage.
