The patronage dividend method of co-operative marketing of butter-fat was approved by the committee. The practicability and advantages of this method have been demonstrated at different points. ; Noble county has great possibilities for dairy farming, as yet undeveloped the commitee agreed.” The land is adapted to grazing, barns and proper housing facilities aré already on the farms, in. most instances, silos, a necessary part of the dairy: equipment are alrcady provided and alfalfa along with other legumes thrive on our soils The legumes and ‘silage supply good roughage at low cost. = - ’ No farm produce removes less fertility from the farm than does butter fat.

DANGE PARTNER UNIQUE CALLING Squire of Darvrles‘ Latest :Néw York Innovation. OCCUPATION IS PROFITABLE
Women Visitors to New York Employ Dancing Partner and Entertainment Escort—Type, It Is Said, Is Born, Not Made—Must Be Conservative In Dress and Demeanor—Has No Delusions as to Boundaries He May Not Cross. :
New York has many night workers who earn their livelihood by providing necessities or luxuries for the dwellers within its gates, and among those who follow the White Light path of effort to provide the luxuries there is one who is almost unique. His business is that of acting as dancing partner and entertainment escort for .unattached women, especially those from out ;of town. He is not a lounge lizard—one of those plastered-hair youths who haunt the cabarets at night, ostensibly as dancing instructors, and “bootleg” or deal in “coke” by day. Nor is he a hanger-on, in corseted dinner jacket and razor-edged trousers, in the socalled dancing academies of Broadway. There are only a half-dozen of these squires of ddmes, of many dames and also damosels, in the metropolis, for the type is born, not made, and must have a peculiar mental equipment and rather unusual traits. Conservativeness in dress and demeanor are two of the most prominent characteristics; are, in fact, second to their footwork in the rating of their assets. Their services are not sought by the flapper or the women who habitually feed on the jazz of the cabaret rather than its menu. They are in demand, and the demand exceeds the supply, from the many lone women, young and ‘middle-aged, who come from all parts of the country for a taste of metropolitan life and have never learned: to dance,, or at least to dance what are popularly supposed to be the newest steps. j ; These women stay at the best of New York’s hotels, are well supplied with money and not infrequently are of high social standing at home. They may, it is true, obtain instruction in dancing from the hotel hostess, who usually combines exhll?itlon dancing with instruction, but her rates are $lO an hour, and she doesn’t lead the way a man does. What woman wants to learn how to dance with a woman if she can help it? Moreover, the visitors are seeking more than the ability to dance; more than to be able to return home and display to admiring friends a fox-trot variation directly imported from the Gréat White Way. ‘They want to dance with a man on that Great White Way, be a part of it for the time being. e :
| Finding the Right Man. But the finding of the right man to one unacquainted in New York is not easy. He must be one who will not take advantage of a woman unused te its ways; who will be deferential without appearing to be a paid attendant; assured in bearing but not possessive; with whom the woman can appear at the best restaurants without exciting ~unfavorable comment, and whom, should she meet an acquaintance from her home city, she can introduce as a New York friend without the certainty of unpleasant gossip. Our squire of dames, our host-about-town, doesn’t advertise, his name is not on file at the hotel information desk and he has neo office. . doe
He makes his headquarters in a certain public dance hall, conducted on a large scale, where those who:can dance do so to their hearts’ content at small cost and where those of either sex who seek education in dancing can get it for a nominal sum without binding themselves to pay for an entire course. Here the squire of dames is an instructor, a purely nominal position, which opens the door to those activities which give him a life of leisure, entertainment and a good income. The visitor knows he is an instructor becaiuse his badge tells her so. He is modestly but carefully dressed in business garb. Posted notices inform her that his instructien ch.arge will be whatever she chooses to give him in addition to the
regular fee charged for dancing. - He collects a small commission from the management for each dance. ‘ In a manner that is purely businesslike and impersonal he asks her if she cares to dance or wishes instruction, She does. She finds him a patient and skillful instructor, with a manner which impresses her as placing him a shade above the position he occupies. She does not know that, with the carefulness born of experience, he has picked her as a liberal payer and that if she fails to meet his expectations he will be too busy $o give instruction to her on the morrow. He gives his attentions only to those who reward him with a fee not less than $l. The instruction continues, the time comes when the woman feels that she can dance at a hotel supper or cabaret or a soctety ball without exciting pity for her clumsiness. Her feet itch to foot it on some such floor. ) - Engages an Escort. Hod ~ But where the escort, where the deancing partner? The only one she knows is her instructor, and who could better fill the want? She has learned to follow his leads and steps perfectly. He fulfills all that propriety could ask for in dress, manner and deportment, And it is a business transaction. She

Doubtless ihe belles of that day, taking the lesson taught by the marble to heart, began to wear a similar lock. The practice has continued to the preseng day.

According o Traveier, They Are a Generous Gift of Nature to : ™ . llsland of Norfolk. | > ey \ | Lemons grow’wild alll over the island of Norfolk, a British possession in the South Pacific, according to Thomas J. McMahon, in the Trans-Pacific Magazine. He writes that in every garden " and paddock are clumps’ of trees ever bearing fruit in wonderful abundance,s and of a variety full of rich julce and with a rind most suitable for lemon peel, : ' L
Little factories, family concerns, are dotted all over the islands. They are usually roughly 'constructed wooden buildings divided into three rooms. There, with rather primitive instruments, the women cut and squeeze the lemons in huge frames, and the skins are soaked in brine preparatory to making lemon peel. During the lemon season, whic¢h is most of the year, the boys and girls are engaged daily In picking the fruit. ( ‘] While there are only 800 people on the island, it could comfortably ‘and prosperously house 5,000 persons, according to Mr. McMahon. The island is five miles long, three miles broad and contains 8,600 acres.

° _Tennis In Olden Times. Tennis, the forerunner of the lawn game of today, is a very old game. It was introduced into England about the Fourteenth century: A line was chalked on a #all and a stroke below this was regarded a fault. Palm tennis originated in France. The ball was driven by the palm of the hand; at first the hund was bare, but later the players ysed a glove, and later still some form of racquet was used. In the time ¢f Edward IV, Henry Vil and Henry VIII a crude form of tennis was played in BEngland, and it is on record that Queen Elizabeth was pleased at a game played by ten of the Earl of Hertford's servants. Another story tells how a noble ear], becoming heated by the exertions of the game, wiped his face with the queen’s handkerchief, and was rewarded with a erack on the head with her majesty’s eansE.
