IDALKER i = MORE CHARITY E' VEN though we openly declare that we aire mere dependents on one another, there are times in our lives when our moods are so mon strously ugly that we view the matter In quite a different light. About our worthy selves, our qual ifications and special privileges, there can be no question. \Ve stand upon a pedestal of our own making, sure of Its unsullied magnificence and enduring strength. Being vigorously rational, we are on speaking terms with our neighbors, but we have little time at our disposal to cultivate their friendship for which In truth we do not cure. So with a self-made rule, a ques tionable scale, a curiously contrived level and plum line, we proceed to measure and to determine their worth iness. There Is a fascination in the exact- 1 ing performance of such work that ap peals to our nature. Every blemish we discover gives us a thrill and adds another tale to our precious store of gossip.

I U? ?????? -3 o f Uncommon Sense JOHN BLAKE "SHOW THEM!" mT'LL show them," says' the village boy as he leaves town where, like the prophet in his own country, he lias been without honor. } "I'll show them," says th^ struggling clerk, stung by the contempt, of his Jeering companions. Perhaps the desire to "show them" Is not the highest motive for achieve ment. But it' Is a very real? a very human motive. And v^ry often It cur ries a man to real success. When, after ten or fifteen years the village boy comes back to "show them" the people that despised him do not question his motives. He has succeeded. They may be amazed, but they are filled with admiration, and nothing Is sweeter than compel ling the admiration of those who once looked down on you. .The clerk who made tji&t early vow to "show them" often does show them, when he has climbed to the head of the business. By that time his anger capitalist, the quibbler and Scientist Anust be weighed and apportioned with punctilious regularity, so that in the morning we may rip our coffee with customary complacency. To step upon the scale ou^pelves is unthinkable, but to insist that others shall do so is a duteous obligation' which must be discharged without failure. Our manicured hand must not touch the calloused palm of the blac'-tsmith ; our daughters must not marry pbor men, nor must we be censured for falsifying our hearts. We are the elect. In any movement for the public w^al, we prefer to pull alone rather than with the commonalty. Our ideas are so bound up with tt?e one master-thought of self, we cannot think of co-operating with our neigh bors; it is not at all agreeable to our uncharitable souls. To this prevalent selfishness of ours may be assigned the present wretched condition of the world. There is no clearly defined Inclina tion to pull together; no charitable, nobly planned purpose to join hands In friendliness, and- step out from semi-darkness into the light of heaven aflame with saving faith.

When the leader has Jumped that elevated rope, lower it to the ground and note what happens. Every sheep in the flock that follows will jump a foot and a half in the air over that same rope, though It is now lying slack on the ground. They follow the leader blindly, unreasoningly, without regard to changed conditions. They don't Jump for the same reason the leader jumped, but Just because they saw another sheep jump a given height, at a given spot." ? Carlyle. O A NATURAL MISTAKE Miss Goose ?

LIVESTOCK " FACTS Iowa Testing Law Aids Fight on Tuberculosis One of the most encouraging factors In the fight ngnlnst cattle tuberculosis, according to those In charge of the eradication work for the United Statea Department of Agriculture, la the ac tivity of Btate legislatures In passing law? to facilitate the widespread test ing of cattle in specified areas, a branch of the work which In the last few years has become of greater Im portance than the testing of Individual herds at random. A state law which contains many points of excellence Is that passed last spring by the Iowa legislature. Briefly, this Iowa law provides that on petition of 51 per cent of the owners of breeding cattle In a county, the live stock sanitary authority of the state must proceed to eradicate tuberculosis from the county as provided in the law. Or the same result may be accom plished In another way: Upon petition of IB per cent of the voters a proposal to eradicate the disease must be sub mitted at the next general election to levy a 8-mlll tax upon all property to help supply funds for the purpose, these funds, together with those from the state and federal governments, to be used largely for paying for animals slaughtered. When 75 per cent of the owners of breeding cattle petition for county testing, all of the herds in the county must be tested and a fine and Jail sentence are provided as penalty for those who refuse to submit their animals to the test. In case the county 3-mlll levy and the state and federal funds are Insuffi cient to pay Indemnities, the law pro vides for a tax of 25 cents a head on all cattle and 5 cents a head on all hogs in the county. University Farm Tests Rations for Baby Beef About two hundred Minnesota cattle raisers at University farm recently bad an opportunity to see six lots of pure bred Shorthorn steer calves, ten calves to each lot, which had been fed different rations for 217 days. They were also given the records In gains made by the various lots of calves. Farmers everywhere will be Interested In the results of the experi ments. The rations fed were as fol lows: ? i Lot 1 ? Shelled corn, 60 per cent; whole oats, 30 per cent; linseed oil meal, 10 per cent; corn silage and clover hay. Lot 2 ? Ground shelled corn, 60 per cent ; ground oats, 30 per cent ; linseed oil meal, 10 per cent; corn silage and clover hay. Lot 3 ? Limited grain ration for the first half of the feeding period, corn allage and clover hay. Lot 4 ? Ground ear corn, 90 per cent; linseed oil meal, 10 per cent; corn silage and clover hay. Lot 5 ? Ground shelled corn, 66 2-3 per cent ; ground oats, 33 1-3 per cent ; corn silage and clover hay. (No protein supplement.) Lot 6 ? Ground shelled corn, 66 2-3 per cent ; ground oats, 33 1-3 per cent ; clover hay. (No silage and no protein supplement.) Crediting at $6.30 per hundred the gains on hogs which were kept In the lots with cattle, the profits shown by the feeding experiment were: Lot 1, $18.92 per head;' lot 2, $15.97; lot 3, $5.69; lot 4, $18.30; lot 5, $18.61; lot 6, $13.10. No Difference Between Lard and Bacon Types Little difference between lard and bqcon types of swine was noted In a test recently conducted at the Mani toba Agricultural college In Canada In which Poland Chinas end York shires were compared as to gains and production costs. Pigs of each breed were fed a ration of equal parts of barley, oats and shorts for a period of 140 days. Corn was substituted for barley during part of the test. The Poland Chinas made 100 poundfl of gain on 415 pounds of feed and the Yorkshires made 100 pounds on 426 pounds of feed. On the Canadian market, which pays a premium for choice bacon hogs, the Ydl-kshires sold for $9.90 per hundred pounds and the Poland Chinas brought $9.
