A PLACE TO VISIT

The Summer Season at the Beautiful Winona Lake Has Already Begun. * Winona stands for the uplift of Christian life and good citizenship among all Americans. Winona Assembly in Its educational system Is the parent organization of a number of educational institutions and business enterprises which the assembly directorate has fostered through the years necessary to give them a firm foothold. The assembly Itself, now In Its sixteenth year, was organized to provide an attractive place at which Christian people might spend the summer; where they might congregate in a wholesome, congenial atmosphere. As a protection to such surroundings, the assembly obtained by purchase and agreement control of the entire shoreline of Winona lake. The effort is made to provide every attraction and comfort for Christian families; to shut out every Influence of doubtful tinge. The assembly has provided fine hotels and a largo and beautiful park. The entertainments provided are the best obtainable, neither time nor expense being spared to secure talent that commands the indorsement of the cultured world. The recreation provided is clean sport and amusement. The bathing, boating and fishing facilities are ideal. At Winona lake tthe young are influenced to a clean and earnest view of life; to partake only of those pleasures which leave no stain. To Winona lake come leaders of the pulpit, eminent educators, prominent business and professional men, all of whom are recognized leaders in the moulding of present-day thought. These men communicate to the people of Winona lake and its visitors a spirit of broad sympathy in and a wholesome enthusiasm for the higher and better interests of life. Year by year this influence has spread of its own momentum. From merely a summer-resort institution it has become an all-year-round place of residence. Years ago only summer cottages were erected. Now they are the exception. The houses now constructled are built for permanent winter homes, with every modern convenience. Real estate has taken a tremendous leap; Winona securities are considered gilt-edge; houses were never in such constant demand. The purpose and alm of the Winona assembly has met an urgent demand. That it has also met with hearty response and co-operation is attested by the thousands who flock there each summer and by the number of well-to-do people in middle life who have chosen Winona lake as their permanent home. It is surprising how many people with families are also moving there to give their sons and daughters the advantages of the exceptional opportunities afforded there for obtaining a thorough education.

PEOPLE OF THE DAY

An Expert In Statistics. Director of the Census S. D. N. North, who is preparing for the thiriteenth decennial enumeration of the subjects of Uncle Sam. has had nearly thirty years’ experience in that line. On leaving college Mr. North entered the newspaper business, In which he won success both as owner and editor. In 1880 Mr. North was selected to prepare the newspaper statistics for the tenth census and five years later completed arrangements for the taking of the New York state census. General Porter, superintendent of the eleventh census, asked Mr. North to make a special report on wool and woolen manufactures. It greatly enhanced his reputation, and in 1899 Director Merriam insisted that he should accept the position of chief statistician In charge of the division of manufactures of the twelfth census.

S. D. N. NORTH.

His work in this division attracted wide attention, and his thorough knowledge of statistics not only in his special division, but all divisions of the census, was Invaluable to Director Merriam. When President Roosevelt secured legislation establishing a permanent census bureau, Mr. North was regarded as the logical man for the place. He was appointed in April, 1903, and has since been devoting his energies toward making the bureau a success. Mr. North is a native of New York state and is sixty years old.

How Kipling Got Start. Rudyard Kipling owes his first arrlv al in print to a Hindoo who was not in the least appreciative of his work. The famous writer was acting as assistant editor of an Indian paper and in his spare time amused himself scribbling verse. This verse sometimes crept into the paper through the connivance of the native foreman, - who remarked to Kipling one day: “1 like your poetry much. It is so useful for filling in odd corners.” A Fable, Perhaps. When George Ade was coming from New Orleans last winter ’he noticed among the race track men on the train one tan sboed sheet writer with the largest feet be bad ever seen. Aud be furthermore testifies and affirms that the sheet writer on rising in the morning discovered that the porter had shined one shoe and a suit case.—Success. Naval Aid to the President. Lieutenant Commander Leigh C. Palmer, recently appointed naval aid at the White House, is a popular officer In the service and is noted as au expert In gunnery. As naval aid to President Taft, however, his activities will be directed to social affairs rather than to the pointing of big guns. Lieutenant Commander Palmer was appointed to the United States Naval academy from Missouri and was graduated in IS9C>. While a midshipman he was presented with a sword by his

schoolmates to recognition of bis services in promoting athletics at the academy. He served as naval aid to Secretary Root on the latter's trip to South America and was one of the representatives of the United States at the wedling of King Alfonso of Spain. On the recent world girdling cruise of the Atlantic fleet Commander Palmer was attached to the battleship Wisconsin, serving on the staff of Rear Admiral Potter.

HINTS FOR FARMERS

Stomach Worm Disease. Medicinal treatment Is not success ful in stomach worm disease,. and farmers must depend on changing pasture to eradicate this pest. Pastures which cannot be cultivated can be freed by burning and abandoning for eighteen months if washing of material from Infested land is prevented. On premises where calves are lost in such large numbers each year and where all the pastures are undoubtedly Infested It would be advisable to build a small pasture on high ground that has-been under cultivation and unoccupied by stock for one or two seasons and through which no small streams flow. Calves when weaned can then be placed on this free pas ;ture and kept there until they are old enough to withstand attacks of the parasites, about one year or eighteen months.—South Carolina Experiment Station Bulletin.

Vigor In ths Flock. The period of usefulness of good sheep varies much with the breed as well as with Individuals of the same breed. Some become unprofitable at three or four years of age, others at ten or twelve or even older. Whenever a sheep begins to show 'signs of weakness, evidence of disease or lack of thrift and vigor It should be removed from the flock. “All Is lost that is poured into a crasked dish;” all Is lost that it put Into an unthrifty sheep—worse than lost often, for a diseased sheep may do great damage to the flock, and when one loses thrift it loses its natural power to resist disease. Nature I has marked such a one for destruction, and the shepherd should forestall nature by disposing of it.—Orange Judd Farmer. Ground Bone For Pigs. Experiments conducted at the Nebraska experiment station show a very marked increase in the strength of bone when tankage or ground bone Is fed to pigs in addition to corn. In determining the strength of bones the two principal bones in each leg of each animal were removed and broken in a machine. There were four pigs fed in each lot, making the figures given the average of the breaking of thirty-two bones in each lot. The average breaking strength per hundred pounds, live weight, of hogs after twenty-two weeks’ feeding was as follows: Lot 1, corn, 325 pounds; lot 2, corn and shorts, 390 pounds; lot 3, corn and skimmilk. 509 pounds; lot 4. corn and tankage. 580 pounds; lot 5, corn and ground bone, 681 pounds. 4

Stoppage of Milk Flow. A very common trouble in every dairy is to find an animal with the point of the teat closed, either due to a bruise of teat Itself or to Infection of the milk duct which causes a little scab to form, and unless this is properly bandied with care and cleanliness the infection is apt to cause a loss of the entire quarter. Thoroughly wash the part in an antiseptic solution; then dip a teat plug into a healing ointment and Insert it, allowing same to remain frftm one milking to another. In this manner closure can be overcome in a very simple and satisfactory way. A milking tube should not be used if it can possibly be avoided, as there is much danger of infecting the entire quarter by . Its use.—Denver Field and Farm. I Poultry Talk. • Chicks or ducklings will stand confinement during a spell of rainy weath;er better than turkeys will. ' Don’t wait until young poultry begin to droop and die before looking for lice. * '1 he home of the young turkeys should be roomy, 5 rat proof and well ventilated. Heavy; soil and wet weather are favorable to gapes. When a bard shower comes up* the (foolish young ducklings need attention. ! Don't blame the chickens for helping Igarden stuff to "come up.” The garden (fence should be chicken proof.— Farm Journal. Pickle For Curing Meats. Fourteen pounds salt, four ounces saltpeter, two ounces saleratus, five pounds brown sugar, tablespoonful of red pepper, twelve gallons of water, to be mixed in a cold state. The above quantity is sufficient for 400 pounds. If the pickle gets moldy, boll and cool and use again. For pickling beef, four gallons of water, one and a half pounds of brown.sugar, six pounds salt, two and a half ounces of saltpeter to a hundred pounds of beef.—Rural New Yorker. I ; War on Bad Baad. Good work in detecting adulterated I is being carried on by the -dejent of agriculture. Of 1,471 sam>f seeds taken last year 102 samwere found adulterated or misled. The department publishes esults of the test, together with tames of the firms that sold the It is claimed that since thll began the trade In adulterated has fallen off greatly. Foaling Timo. i No colt will be dropped during the &ve hours from 11 p. m. to 4 a. m. noria lly. The mare that shows no signa ,of parturition at 11 or even at 10 at might is safe until early morning. From 7 to 9 at evening, however, is |a favorite hour. From 4 to 5 in the morning is another. Perhaps one-third lof all colts are dropped during these hours.—Denver Field and Farm.
