I believe It la juat as much a part of the human family’s needs to play some, laugh some and grow young as it is to sing some and pray soipe and listen to a sermon. Me for some fun every summer! lam either going to the mountains or down to the lake or over to Farmer Jones’ grove to.-the picnic or somewhere. “They teli me that this summer we are goiug to have a Chautauqua here; that It is a Chautauqua named after Abraham Lincoln; that there are people to lecture, sometimes seriously and sometimes humorously; that there ar< people who play musical instruments; people who sing; that some folks are makeup artists who impersonate and imitate other folks, and that some are actors; that some make drawings with crayons; that there are bands and orchestras; that there is a lot of fun inthe program; some of the greatest men and women of the country will tell us what they see and think %iat is worth

while and that fills heart chinks with gladness and the air with merriment “I understand that these folks have as much fun in singing and acting and playing as you can have at a National league ball game, or when ydu go fish ing, or play ‘Run, sheep, run? and I’ll be doggoned if 1 ain’t going to take that in if it’s the last thing I ever do. “Me for the Chautauqua—to sit under that sage green tent in a good chair and listen to a man talk who knows how to talk, or a girl sing who can sing some, or somebody play a part who looks it and acts it to a fault My neighbors and I and all the kiddies are going to take this week off to play with these Chautauqua folks' and have the time of our lives.* Yes, sir; you bet!” Lincoln Chautauqua to be held in Rensselaer, Sept. 12th to 17th.

COMMON SENSE IN HOG LOT

Houses Used Should Be Isolated and Whenever Possible Portable Structures Employed. It is a wise man who will give his hogs plenty of sunlight. It is not easy to do this in a large building, perticu-

A Berkshire Sow and Her Litter.

larly if it is made a part of any other bulling. Hog houses ought to be isolated, and better still, portable houses should be used whenever possible. Portable houses, mounted on runners, can be moved from one small' clover or rape field to another, giving the pigs fresh pasturage and clean quarters. Of course such pens are only for shelter and nesting purposes. The portable farrowing pen should have a place on every farm where two or more sows are kept. These are easily built by any farmer handy with tools, and should not cost over three dollars.

PROPER FEED FOR TURKEYS

When the Hen Begins to Set She Should Be Provided With Corn and ■nd Wheat and Freeh.Water. (By C. M. SHULTZ.) When the turkey hen begins to sit, she should be provided with a dish of whole corn and wheat, given access to fresh water twice a day, and then must be left absolutely undisturbed. In order to get the best results, each turkey hen should have an individual pen where she cab sit and eat and drink without being compelled to go out into the yard with the other bird?, or be disturbed In any way. If she is to be disturbed at all, It is only to give her a thorough dusting with Insect powder two or three time? during the sitting period, which covers from 27 to 30 days. During thijj time the turkey hen sits very quietly, sometimes refusing to leave the nest f0r.36-hours at a time to get food or water. She should never be urged to leave the nest for this purpose or any other, but food and water should always be within her reach at all times. She knows best what she wants, and when she wants it.

CULLING THE POULTRY FLOCK

Hens Over Two or Three Years of Age, Badly Shaped Birds and Poor Layere Are Unprofitable. (By PROF. J. O. HALPIN, Wisconsin College of Agriculture.) The poultry flock should be culled during early summer, so as to take advantage of the comparatively good prices that prevail then. Hens over two or three years old, the small hens, the badly shaped ones with crow heads or crooked breasts, overfat hens, and hens known to be poor layers, should be sold. Not only will the price be lower later in the season, but the presence of these undesirable hens will reduce the efficiency of the entire flock. Then, after the flock has been culled, all the remaining hens should be given leg bands or otherwise marked so that they may later be distinguished from the pullets.

Utilize Manure Crops.

The Ideal way to utilize crops grown for manuring Is to feed them to stock and to return the manure to the soil, thus securing their full feeding value and from two-thirds to three-fourths Of the original fertilizer value.

COMMENDS GENERAL APPEARANCE OF CITY

Prof. C. G. Sauers, of Purdue, Judges Premises and Makes Helpful Criticism. < The prize awards were made Sunday by Prof. C. G. Saurers, of the horticultural, station of Purdue University, who went over the entire city iri an automobile and after selecting several of the premises which looked the best used a score card in arriving at his conclusions as to which were entitled <to the prizes. Th (Towards were made in two classes, owners and tenants and the result was as follows: Owners: C. A. Roberts, first; Dr. A. G. Catt, second: E. D. Rhoades, third; - Tenants: Dr. Ed. N. Loy, first; H. E. Hartley, second; Harvey W. Wood, third. , In each class the prizes were S2O, sl4 and SB. After paying the expense of the judge there was $1.50 left, which Mr. Holden will give to the Board of Charities. The premises of John Eger.scored the highest of any in Rensselaer, but the prizes are given only to those Who do their own work in care of flower beds and fawns. Prof. SaueYs was one of the judges in the Lafaydtte Yard Improvement Content, and th& prize yard in Lafayette scored 90 points out of a possible 100. The Eger yard scored 90.5. In Lafayette these inspections a month apart 'were made. The score cards were based upon the yard and the flower garden, each with a value of 50 per cent, as follows: Yard: lawn, 10, shrubbery 10, neatness 30.

Flower garden: selection of vavieties 10, condition and care 25, arrangement and placing 15. The Eger property scored as follows: lawn 8-5, shrubbery and trees 7.5, neatness 27.5, selection of flower varieties 9, condition and care 24, arrangement 14. The Roberts property scored 87. The lawn scored 9.5, shrubbery and trees 1, neatness 28.5, selection of flower varieties 7, condition and care 23, arrangement and placing 11. It thus can be seen that the Roberts yard was only 4 per cent off perfect, but the flower garden Was graded off 9 points. Mr. Roberts has very few flowers, preferring the green lawn to flowers. The Dr Catt property graded 83, the Rhoades property 82.5, the Comer house 81.5, F. iM. Haskell’s property 80.5. z The Dr. Loy property scored 83, the H. E. Hartley property 80 and the H. W. Wood property 79.

In the favorable mention class of the owner’s property was Mrs. William Washburn’s,. Dr. English’s and O. K. Rainer’s. There were many others,- but these in about the order named “Were considered ''after the Comer house and the Haskell property. Mrs. Bicknell, at the corner of Weston and Harrison streets, E. D. Rhoades in the old Washburn property and other tenants received favorable mention. (Mrs. Bicknell has many flowers, but the parking was not mowed outside of the walk «ind there was some lack of detailed attention. The following general criticism was made by Prof. Sauers and should prove a valuable guides in future years.

Rensselaer is to be commended upon its general appearance. It has that clean, green and bright aspect which is so desirable in any town or city. This condition indicates the excellent civic spirit which must be prevalent among the citizens and which is alwpytf so desirable but hard to obtain.

Yet, along with her splendid appearance there are some flaws in the civic appearance which can be easily, remedied. Probably the most noticeable is the planting of trees too close together. To attain its best growth and make its best showing a tree must have room and lots of it. Shade trees Should be planted at least 30 feet apart and 40 is better. Although this may seem a good piece when seating the small tree, at j£he end of a few years the owner can readily see the advantage of distance. If your trees are too close, look them over carefully and cut down the undesirables. If you are planting new ones, choose a good species, one that is hardy, disease resistant, beautiful and long lived. Another comipon discrepancy is the lack of foundation planting., Screen your bare foundations with permanent shrubbage or perennial flowers. The screen for foundations makes the connecting link between the house and lawn and break” thejharsh line caused by a bare foundation. There is a lack ot attention to de tail.'
