Indians Revive Ancient Games
Ti? Nev. ? Picturesque gatherings
of I ? and Washoe Indians have
been negating of late on the out
skirts of Carson City to revive the
ami- Indian game of "passing the

?T.-ssing the stick" is a guessing

Like "Button But'-on."
Agreement is made as to the side
rtaning the contest. The leader of
the sld? taking the offense places the
tln> st irk in his right hand, then con
ceals both hands behind his back and
raj : . y changes the trophy from hand
to bur Finally he brings both hands
to tin- front, tightly clinched, and folds
his arms stoically.
The opposing players then guess In
which hand the stick reposes, the tirst
call deciding the Issue. Oft! lines sev

winning hand, or fail to guess correct
ly. Should the first guess prove right
the stick changes sides, and the lead
er of the opponents has an opportu
nity to demonstrate his shuffling abil
ities.
From time to time other Indians
among the players are given the hon
or of holding the vital stick and en
deavoring to outguess the other side.
The Indian Is aptly termed "poker

stick's whereabouts.
Big Gambling Game.
Points are scored on the basis of
correct guesses, and during an after

Picks Wrong Home
Portland, Ore. ? Emory Davis Is a
lion>e-loving sort of a person.
Five times since 1926 deputy United
Stales marshals have taken him away
and federal courts bave told him to
stay away. But Emory always returns
with unerring instinct to his lonely log
?hack high in the wilds of Umpqua na

Recently he was taken out for the
fifth time. Federal Judge McNary
sentenced him to six months In jail,
but paroled him on condition he stayed

where he insists on living as a squat

Loran Cochrane, deputy marshal,
who usually draws the job of packing
into the mountains to take Davis out,
half expected to be called on to make
the trip again within a few months.

Evidence Discovered to
Verify Bible Miracles
London. ? Material evidence of two
?.f the most spectacular miracles of
the Bible lias been gathered by Brit
ish areheoiogists, according to mes
sages from Palestine.
Prof. John (larstang, leader of the
Jericho expedition financed by Sir
Diaries Marston. lias reported that the
collapse af the walls of Jericho be
fore the Jewish hosts under Joshua
was apparently due to an earthquake.
He based his theory upon tlie discov
ery that the walls of the city had fall
en outward in places in a manner
which suggested seismic disturbances.
The same natural phenomenon ac
counts for the drying up of the Jordan
for the Jews to ? ross. lie believes. The
expedition, he says, has gathered evi
dence that the clay banks of the river
caved In near EI Ihimieh at about the
jterlod described In the Bible.
Sir Charles Marston, who has fi
nanced three expeditions to confirm
the authenticity of Bible records, be
lieves this naturalistic explanation of
the miracles really corr.*?/"rates th?

EXHIBITS HELP TO
BRING OUT POINTS
Fall Fairs of Benefit to Dairy
Cattle Breeders.
Comparative judging of live stock
brings out the weak as woll as the
8 1 roue points of the animal judged
uud helps the breeder to develop a
. better grade of stock.
"This is oue reason why we advise
: breeders of dairy cattle to exhibit their
j animals at the fall fairs," says John i
A. Arev, dairy extension specialist. :
I "The show ring Is a pood place for j
breeders of pure-bred cattle to coiu- I
pare the merits of their animals. Add- 1
j ?<1 to this is the advertising value |
of a pood fair exhibit, which often re
sults in many sales of breeding stock."
Mr. Arev supgests that dairy breed- 1
ers prepare for showing r,t least two !
! months before the cattle are to be ex- i
i hibited. This amount of time is neces
sary to fit and properly train the eat- j
' tie, even when in good condition to
j start with. Hach animal should be
j taught to lead well ; to stand squarely
' on its feet, and hold up its head, i
i Animals that are not well trained and
properly fitted usually receive low
placings, though they may be good
individuals.
It is not difl'n ult to fit an animal for
the ring, if it has received good care
and feed. Plenty of balanced grain
I and a mixed hay Is needed for feed*
I ing. If the hair Is long, the animal
| should bo dipped all over six weeks
j before the first show. Washing about
once a weok improves the condition
I of both hide and hair. Neat, shapely
! horns add much to the appearance,
j it is also advisable to brush and rub
! the animal each day. This gives a
glossy appearance to the hair.
Mr. Arey further suggests that the
' switch be washed clean and braided
; the niplit before the show. Combed
j out the next morning it gives a strik
I Ing Huffy appearance.
j Above all. he concludes, be courteouf
i and a good sportsman.
Calves Make Good Use
of All Water Supplied
Seven pounds of skimmilk fe'l twice
daily to calves do not contain suffi- ?
ciout water for maximum devel ??- I
rnvnt, according to Prof. F. 11 Morrl- I
son of the animal husbandry depart
1 lent of Cornell university. In two ,
trials carried on while be was at the
University of Wisconsin there was a
i striking difference in those calves 1
i which had all the water that they j
| wanted twice a day, in addition
I ski iiini ilk, compared to those having !
I sk i mini 1 k onl*. The calves receiving i
I the water bad better appetites and i
| ate quite a little more concentrates I
j ami hay. For the average of the two )
j years, the calves fed pounds of
j skimmilk daily to six months of age, ;
j with a good concentrate mixtc.r and ]
hay, but without additional water, |
gained only 1.30 pounds daily. Those >
receiving, in addition, what water they ;
cared to drink twice a day. gained
1 1.84 pounds. Running water, when 1
available in the barn, makes It easier
to give the calves better care an 1 In
this way secure cheaper g ains.
Care of Pails and Cans
Normally, milk pails and cans art
not used Immediately after washii i
They ure "nneraliy set away to drain !
and to dry for a time. This is all J
right, especially if they are thorough- |
ly dried, for bacteria cannot grow and j
multiply where there is no moisture.
They need air, moisture and food for j
their growth, the same as other plant !
life. Remove any one of rhesr fac
tors. and the germs cannot multiply.
The important thing for the dairy
man wl sells milk or crearn or con
verts thes ; products info butter or
cheese on his own fariu is to provide
a convenient place and an abt?? nee
of ho* water for washing and rinsing
all utensi's. Unless this Is done,
will be difficult to produce a superior
product.
Pasture Not Sufficient
Dairy calves under six months ol4
will not do well on pasture. It takes
some time to develop the digestive sys
tem of a calf sufficiently to enable It
to get a large proportion of needed nu
trients from roughage. Grass is a suc
culent roughage relatively high In wa
ter content and therefore relatively
low in nutrient content for its bulk.
It takes some time for calves to learn
to graze pasture grasp to the extent
that they are able to satisfy their re
quirements from this bulky roughage.
There Is advantage in giving calves ?
grass paddock for exercise but one
shooT d not depend on the grass to sup
ply ury great portion of needed bu
triento.

POPULARITY
Whenever an individual or a pro
duct enjoys popularity there is al
ways some good reason or combina
tion of reasons back of it. Thera
are many reasons why more than
nine million boxes of St.Joseph's
Aspirin have been sold in one single
Tear. For instance, thousands of
people now realize that it is neither
sensible nor necessary to pay more
than 10c for 12 tablets of genuine
pure aspirin. SUoseph's is both
genuins and puro and meets every
government standard. More than
10,000 new users every day are ask
ing their dreggists for "St-Jo
