I SPLENDORS OF NATURE MAKE “THE SHADES” | INDIANA'S YOSEMITE. Primitive Beauty That Soothes The Wanderlust Nature’s Playground. | . By H. C. Reid Hoosier State Automobile Association

The Shades offer such a variety of appealing scenery that they have come to be known as the "Yosemite'’ of Indiana. This tract, privately owned by J, W. Frisz, of Waveland, covers 500 acres. Hidden away, off the regular arteries of traffic, the stranger will find here the beauty of natural scenery that invariably makes a lasting impression. Take your time and you will be fascinated by the wonderful formation of rock, the rippling cascades, the deep gorges, the sheer precipices and the quiet of primitive conditions. Should you be a clover of plant life, then your fondest dream can be realized. Ferns of many varieties are to be foiind in clusters and singly, clinging to the perpendicular walls |4iere. plant food would seem to be absent. Mosses beyond your expectation are everywhere. Native in abundance! | The stately oak, red and white, five feet in di-

ameter and seventy feet in the clear. The Pine, Cedar, Hemlock. Poplar, Beech, Maple and Sugar are to be, found in a perfect state. The lumber; from such trees can be found only in very old buildings when timber was i plentiful. From beneath huge cliffs flow numerous mineral springs whose waters form beautiful cascades as they flow to Rock river amid the primeval forests. Two of these springs have been named Youth and Beauty. Unlike most .mineral springs this water is most palatable. Once Held Peril for Settlers Dating back to the time it was in- ’ habited by the Indians, this tract was known as "The Shades of Dpath.” On account of the dense forest, the hiding j places in deep cut ravines with their numerous springs and abundance of |

SIMPLE TO MAKE A GDOOCOHODIEO Small Outlay by Farmer Will Insure Quality of Product During Hot Months. A low-cost cream cooling plant to insure the production of high quality cream during the hot weeks of July and August can be made right on the farm by the farmer himself, says the Blue Valley Creamery Institute, with the use of a water-tight barrel, two cans, and an open shed-like structure to protect the barrel from the rays of the sun. In building such an arrangement, a water-tight barrel large enough to hold two cans is sunk into the ground, as shown in the accompanying illustration, near a well pump or at least near enough to a pump so that fresh, cold

INSTITUTE ADVISES • CARE OFPMES TITHEN the fanner turns his stock ; VV to pasture just as soon as the grass shoots up and lets them forage as best they may until winter, he seriously reduces his profits by following this crude practice of our early European ancestors, according to the Blue Valley Creamery Institute. Fully onethird of the value of pastures Is lost by turning out cows to grass before 'the grass has had a chance to get a good start. Two acres pastured only after a dense, strong, luxuriant growth has been secured will generally produce more than will three acres i pastured early.,

• fish and game afforded protection and *■ i sustenance for the aborigines. The I white man feared and avoided this L : black forest’with its hidden terrors', s» ; consequently as a stronghold it re- ® j mained long after other such places £ had disappeared. Perhaps not on such a tremendous g scale as some of the other well known I national resorts has nature carved, but fg here in this tract will be found in a smaller way the Bridal Veil falls of the ■ Yosemite, the deep cut gorges of Wat- ■ kins Glen, the cliffs and heights of the | Yellowstone: also such cool, enchant 8 ing, rippling streams; such wooded, K| I rocky deep ravines; such sparkling. >■> bubbling springs; the Horseshoe bend •? of the river; such dark quiet shade K i nooks, under the big leafed oak and « | maple where romance may run riot, as « i can be found in no other place where ~ I primeval forests are yet preserved. p

water can be frequently pumped into [ the barrel in order to keep the ternperature of the water surrounding the —= cans of cream as low as possible. The L_ overflow water can be piped to the [ stock watering tank. Such an arrange- r~ ment can be hitched to a hand or pow- L= er pump or to a kitchen pump or L_ faucet. If more convenient the barrel can be located on the shady side of M a building and thereby do away with —. the necessity of building a shed or cov- ■ ering. The detailed drawing shows |s| how simple It is to build a “cream ■ cooler” on the farm. The principal point to keep in mind is to pipe the in- I flow water so that it is discharged at | the bottom of the barrel. Two cans are necessary. Warm, » fresh cream from each separation is ■ kept in can No. 1 until it has cooled H down to the temperature of the cream | in can No. 2. Before the next separa- i tion and after it has been thoroughly cooled, it is added to the cream in can I No. 2. Warm and cold cream should I never be mixed, and can No. 1 must m be thoroughly washed and cleaned after emptying its contents into can No. I 2 and before fresh cream is poured | in it. ■ S

Early grazing stunts the growth of _ grass for the entire season, because I it manufactures food material in its H leaves by the aid of sunlight, and g| when the pasture is kept eaten down ■ close it has little chance to carry on ■ its process. Keep stock off pasture if | at all possible, and let the grass grow. | It will not run away, and it will grow ■ more luxuriant and stronger, last ■ longer and resist summer drought I better, declares the Institute experts, || Fresh green grass is deceptive. It ■ ,1s very stimulating in that it “peps — up” cows. It makes a great “spring I tonic,” but it cannot do the work of | grain and good high-protein hay. It a to feed at l£ast one pound of ! grain for each five pounds of milk, I even with the best pasture, in order | to keep up a maximum flow of milk. ■ Once production shrinks, it is impos- ! sible to get cows back lat as high a I level of production in that lactation | period. ■
