“Do you know that there is money in 
Angora goats?” “I know that there is in 
one. It ate a vest of mine and there 
was a $2 bill in one of the pockets.”— 
Chicago Record-Herald. 
Medical Student: “What did you 
operate on that man for?” Eminent 
Surgeon: “Five hundred dollars.” Med¬ 
ical Student: “I mean, what did he have?”/ 
Eminent Surgeon: “Five hundred dol 
lars.”—Puck.

A little girl was out walking with ' 
aunt one day. The aunt bowed ^ 
man they were passing. “Who is He* 
Aunt Jennie?” asked the little girl. Mrs. 
Littlefield told her that he was Mr. Mel¬ 
rose, the village undertaker. “Oh, yes,” 
replied the child, quickly, “I remember 
him. He undertook my grandmother.”— 
Harper’s Bazar. 
“Dead little town you’ve got here, isn’t 
it?” said the passenger with the heavy 
watch chain, as he ordered a cup of 
coffee and a sandwich at the little eating 
house near the railway station. “Yes, 
sir,” answered the man behind the lunch 
counter. “Nobody ever comes here but 
body snatchers or poor relations of the 
deceased. Which are you?”—Chicago 
Tribune. 
“It’s this way,” explained the client. 
“The fence runs between Brown’s place 
and mine. He claims that I encroach on 
his land, and I insist that he is trespassing 
on mine. Now, what would you do if you 
were in my place ?” “If -I were in your 
place,” replied the lawyer, “I’d go over 
and give Brown a cigar, have a drink with 
him, and settle the controversy in ten min- 
uates. But as things stand, I advise you 
to sue him by all means. Let no arrogant, 
domineering, insolent pirate like Brown 
trample on your sacred rights! Assert 
.your manhood and courage. I need the 
money!”—Modern Society.

World’s Champion Cow, 
| The Guernsey cow here illustrated has proven herself the biggest butter producer in I 
the world. This letter tells the story. | 
“Milwaukee, Wis., Feb, 12 , 1900 . 1 
My Guernsey cow, Yeksa Sun¬ 
beam, No. 15439 , holds the 
World’s record for a yearly but¬ 
ter-fat production, having made 
in a year 857.1 5 pounds of but¬ 
ter-fat. She also made 14920.8 
pounds of milk testing 5.75 per 1 
cent, fat; this is the largest 
amount of milk produced in a 
year by any Guernsey cow. 
The butter exhibited from my farm was awarded FIRST PRIZE 
over all at the State Dairymen’s Convention at Waukesha, Wis., scoring 
97 yi points. 
I use the United States Cream Separator, of which I have 
three on as many farms. Fred rietbrock.” 
Don’t miss the point of this story: GOOD COWS and the 
U. S. CREAM SEPARATOR 
is a combination that means biggest profit to dairymen. You feed your 
cows to produce rich milk, and to get the most butter-fat from that 
milk you need a U. S. Cream Separator because it Holds theWO RLD S 
RECORD for CLEAN SKIMMING. 
Our new, handsome 1906 catalog e tells all about the U. S. Read it before you nut 
any money into a cream separator. Just write us, “Send catalogue number
