She was very much annoyed. Not, of course, because the poor creature was dead she admitted that no one had control of the life forces and she knew that the end had to come to every one but she thought it Inconsiderate of him to die in her house. She had expected to begin a series of dinner dances immediately, and this necessitated a period of mourning, however brief. Mourning called for more clothes, when her trunks were already bursting with fresh Paris toilettes. It was comforting to reflect that only the family and a few old friends knew about Jim Haverhill and whether he was among the quick or the dead. There is the daughter, she said speculatively to her husband who whistled off key but was much too CATTLE LICE NEED TWO TREATMENTS Some Homemade Mixtures Are Quite Effective. Three kinds ot lice are commonly found on cattle and they may all be present at the same time. Fortunately, the same treatment may ' be used for each kind, says. Prof. IL A. Hopper of Cornell university. Cattle lice are especially injurious to young stock. The Irritation caused by the lice arrests growjh and con tributes to low vitality. When the an imals are stabled in the fall, lice may not be detected, but after a few weeks in the stable several hatches of eggs may hatch. and the whole herd he infested. They must be controlled to insure the thrift and comfort of the herd, not to mention profitable milk- 2 Do? They do everything. Live? They live everywhere." He sent his long, white hand, fine as a woman's, in a gesture that indicated all that vast sweep of the city apart from their own environment. They have been around you, child, all of your life, only, of course you never saw them, you v never would you never will. They built the houses you live in they paved the streets. They spun the cloth you wear, the food you eat is handled by them in a hundred ways all this passes through their hands, yet you have never knowingly seen them! He stared, 6truck with this stupendous thought. Linda looked puzzled and faintly distressed. She felt as If she had been caught mocking at something which after all was not amusing or ridiculous. She was, more thoughtful than girls of her age usually are, and there was novelty in this viewpoint that ' caught her attention. But before she could reply the procession, changing every minute, yet always the same, had claimed her wonder again. The music came fainter and fainter from its distance. The best and showiest of the bands had gone by, and the tail of the comet was escorted by the . leftovers of drums and fifes. There was not a splendid automobile to be seen and no bowing. ' The tall silk hats had become extinct. Patrolmen appeared on corners. They shouldered the crowd, and women and old men began to gamer their flocks of startled awry children. Before long it was impossible to tell where the marchers and the crowd were divided, for the street, was a maelstrom of pushing, worrying bodies, striving against one another for the right of way to nowhere. Authority lost patience. i f Behind the brown awnings, safe and sound from all this flurry, in Cousin Amys fine house on the avenue, Jim Haverhill talked to his daughter and used the sight they had just witnessed to point his lesson and send It home.' Look down in the .street and you will see life. I could not show you a fitter picture if we walked through all the galleries of the earth. Those poor fools grubs you called them ! Would the crowd come out to watch them march? Who cared or watched, after the "band and the cars and the uniforms went by?

Linda, who, at sixteen, owned sables that were 'much too fine to be worn had already until she was twenty-fivbrushed close enough to the swamp of poverty to know its chill breath. They lived in Cousin Amys house that summer; slept in grand mahogany beds; but they used the servants sheets, and there was only a grouchy caretaker in the basement living rooms.

The Girl Is a Beauty, She Exulted, as a Good Showman Always Exults Over Beauty. "A girl like wise to offer suggestions. that may be a frightful responsibility or an asset, as her poor father would have said. But-- , when she saw Linda in her slim black, poised with a gentle gravity that placed her grief in a sacred secluded background, the first pleasurable moment of the whole sad affair presented itself. The girl is a beauty, she exulted as a good showman always exults over She looks like her mother, beauty. who was a fool, or she never would have married Jim Haverhill, but If this child is as clever as she looks Linda was clever. She was not yet seventeen, but her mind was twenty-sevea mind a? keen and as her lithe body. She knew of life as a game in which cleverness and savoir faire counted largely, and she calmly regarded her youth and beauty as trump cards. The girl was not romantic; she was free from silly complexes, and she had no heroes. Her lips curled when pome one spoke of movie gods, and she was never known to read a modern novel. But with all this Linda was a charming creature, polished and fine. n super-refine- d -- CHAPTER II Poor Jims Daughter ! , - e, -- When the sad business of erasing Jim Haverhill was well over and Cousin' Amys house was coming out of its coma, Linda put on her close little hat one day and wont to see Senator Converse. There was not the slightest difficulty In getting an Interview. As she followed the clerk through one room after another she thought how rich and powerful the senator must be. The carpets were like cushions under her feet, and everything gleamed with shining surfaces and silence. Only a very important man could command silence like that in the heart of the ' city. Senator Converse was extremely warm and sympathetic in his greeting. He heaved his ponderous body from his swivel chair and waddled to meet her. As his hot, limp hands closed over hers she felt herself smothering. She looked down In embarrassment and discovered that his feet were enormous long and flat and encased' in heelless patent leather shoes that accentuated their shapeless unpleasantness. Poor Jims daughter," he wheezed, leading her after him upon my word ! I have just learned why didnt you telegraph me at once?

(TO BE CONTINUED.) - Dipping the herd is most effective where the size of the herd Justifies it and the equipment is at hand. An orchard sprayer or even a hand pump may be satisfactory for moderatesized herds. If well done, spraying will control lice. The body must be wet thoroughly, especially the head, ears, brisket, tail, and the inner surface of the thighs and flanka In cold weather the cattle must be protected after treatment. Arsenical dips are commonly used for sprays, but any standard dip used according to directions will be effective Two treatments 15 to 16 days apart are ad vised. 'ol(3 weather most owners , During will prefer to use hand applications sucb as powders and ointments, sug gests Professor Hopper. Before applying these, it fs best to expose the hiding places of the pests by clipping all or part of the body. Flip and remove the rough hair, if any, along the back, around the head, neck, and ears and inside the flanks and thighs. Most dusting powders have some value in holding lice in check in cold weather, but they are not recommended as effective in eradicating cattle lice.

Inbreeding Intensifies Swine Characteristics Inbreeding intensifies both tiie good and bad characteristics presenl in the parents. If the ancestry is known to have had no weak points, which Is seldom the case, then inbreeding may result in outstanding offsprings. It should be remembered also that often brings hidden defects to light, writes A. D. Weber of the University of Nebraska. As a general rule, Inbreeding should not be practiced in herds where the pigs are to be fattened for market. The progressive and studious breeder of pure breds, however, can afford to experiment with inbreeding with the hope that a few outstanding pigs will be produced and thus enable him to eventually fix a superior type that will breed true.

The growers on a large scale usually have a double crop working. They plant seed and obtain sets, or small bulbs, for the following year, and then plant the bulbs to raise seed for the year after that. By this method there is nhvays the double crop working seeds to produce bulbs and bulbs to produce seed. Grow'ers in California usually collect their seed while it is still slightly doughy, and submerge it in water for ten to fifteen minutes. The lighter seed, which comes to the top of the water, is discarded as inferior. In New Jersey they work the market all ways.
