The school board have purchased a Babcock tester for the Agriculture class. This will be used to test milk and cream. The tester is an eight-bottle machine, manufactured by the Creamery Package Company, and is well built.

It is of the enclosed type, so' there will be no danger of injury from flying glass or acid, in case a bottle breaks. The patrons of the school district should remember that this tester is their property and it is for their use. That is. if any of the people in this district are milking several cows and would really like to know just what these cows are produc ing they can arrange with Mr. Perriir, the agriculture teacher, to have the milk tested.

There will be no cost to this work. The things that should be done to find out if a cow is a "star boarder" or not, is to weigh each milking, save a little of each milking, for one or two days of each month and have these sam ples tested, and to know the a mount of feed fed the cow, as nearly as possible. If the a mount of milk and the percent of butter fat is known the total amount and value of the butter fat can be obtained; if the ap proximate cost of feed and care is known as well as the income from butter fat, the owner can easily tell whether the cow is making or losing money for him. To get accurate figures, of course, this test should be carried on the full twelve months or as long as the cow is fresh. So, if you wish to have the agriculture class make your tests, it is well to begin at once.

Tests of cream can be made also. Don't be bashful, This article (continued on page 8) The. "Good old days" you hear so much about, were no doubt good because people then didirt know any better. But how would you like to go back to the days of the stage coach, the tallow dip, the flintlock and the spinning wheel? It wouldn't do now, Neither would you care to use coon skins for money. A check book is much handier.

In no way is the change greater from the good old days than in financial affairs. You will find eyery modern convenience in this line at our bank. The Brookville State Bank, F. CONROW, Cashier. "Where Your Deposits are Guarantee!" LAWYER Salina, Kansas Office over BuliTs Smoke House.

To shoe a horse correctly, a shoer must haye experience and knowledge. I have studied shoeing for twenty years I ought to know something about it, and I do. But I don't know it all in fact never expect to. You see there is so much to shoeing horses correctly that a man doesn't live lousr enough to learn it all. That's why you cannot afford to have an inexperienced man to work on your horses.
