The inclosing box is brought in the square to a level with the tank and then roofed over at an angle of from 30 to 45 degrees. At each end a section of the roof is hinged, and may be thrown up against a strip directly over the ridge of the roof, where a U-shaped iron, or -a horseshoe, will prevent it falling or being blown down. The separation of these drinking places promotes peaceable relationsamong the stock while drinking and by keeping the doors closed the water is kept clear and cool in summer, and in winter it helps to prevent hard freezing.—Orange Judd Farmer. -

THE PURE FOOD BILL.

A Measure Whose Passage and Rigid Enforcement Will Benefit

American Farmers.

It is gratifying to learn that all opposing interests in congress have been unified on a-pure food bill and that the measure may become a law soon. Senator Mason and Representative Brosius have’ now made their:respective bills exactly alike, and both branches of congress will support the measure. For two years strenuous efforts have been made to obtain legislation to prevent the adulteration, misbranding and imitation of foods, beverages, candies, drugs and condiments throughout the United States. The Mason-Brosius bill is the final embodiment of these labors and will make a desirable law. Under this measure it will become the duty of the chemical burean of the department of agricuiture to inspect food and drug produets sent to it for that purpose by the various branches of the government. The bill prohibits the shipment of adulterated or misbranded foods or drugs from one state or territory to another or from this country to a foreign nation, under pain of a fine of $2OO for the first offense and $3OO for succeeding offenses, with imprisonment for one year, at the discretion of the court. Great care has been taken to define exactly the meaning of the terms ‘“‘adulteration’” and “misbranding,” so that the law may not be easily evaded. It gives promise of being a businesslike and effective measure for protecting consumers against frauds of this:-kind.

There has long been urgent need of a federal law against food adulteration. The general government can deal much more effectively with such frauds than can the state or municipal government. It has better facilities for chemical analysis and better legal machinery for bringing offenders to justice. With the present vast development iof interstate commerce any matter of food adulteration naturally becomes a national rather than a local question. There is reason to believe that a federal law will accomplish much good in curing existing abuses.—Chicago Tribune. ‘

i Sticking to One Thing Pays. Farmers who stick to the crops and system of farming they have found most profitable in the long run are wisest. The low price of hops last Year induced many New York farmers to change to other crops and now they are regretting it. The New York Farmer says: ‘“Hops have doubled in price since the close of the season of 1899. Last year at this time they sold at seven to ten cents in Otsego and other counties have received from 17 to 20 cents a pound for all the good hops they have on hand. Some hop growers turned to potatoes, and lost their season’s work by drought. Others tried beans, cabbage and other truek, and probably not one of them all has bettered his condition by turning to other crops. Some of them are decidedly worse off as a consequence of the change.” . Rapid Growth of Pigs. ' The pig has the reputation of being able to produce a greater weight of meat and in a shorter time from a certain quantity of food than any of our other farm animals, says the Farmers’ Advocate. As illustrative of this, it may be mentioned, that while a well fed, comfortably quartered pig will increase in weight at the rate of one pound for every ave or six pounds of dry food which it consumes, 2+ ox requires to comsume from 12 to 15 or 18 pounds of dry food (depending on the materials used) in order to produce the same weight of meat. i ! ' Grinding Feed for Cattle, It most certainly pays to grind feed for fattening cattle. The waste in feeding shelled corn or corn in the ear is hard to estimate. All corn that is not ground by the teeth is practically lost. A thoughtful feeder will see the advantage and have a mill on his farm or go to the trouble and expense of getting ‘his corn ground. If good tight troughs are used to feed in there will be little wgﬂg,m you feed on a large or small secale, it pays to grind your corn. *M&mug: Sra e 1

DRIED EGGS IN CANS.

The Latest Way in Which the Ameri= can Hen Is Distributing Her Nutritious Product.

The portable hen is the latest thing adopted by the commissary department of the army. It lays fresh eggs every day, is guaranteed to produce eight dozen, just as they are required, and weighs only two pounds. Requiring neither food nor water, it can be carried conveniently in a soldier’s knapsack, and all he has to do when he wants an omelet or a ‘“scramble” is to unscrew the “critter” and extract from it with a spoon. Dried egg in cans is, to speak more exactly, the army food of the immediate future. It is put up by a number of manufacturers in various parts of the country, but’ chiefly in Missouri, under different trade names, such as “evaporated egg,” desiccated egg,” and “crystallized egg,” From two to these firms the war department has purchased large quantities of the stuff, and thousands of cans of it have been shipped to China and to the Philippines for the use of our troops. One pound is equivalent to four dozen fresh eggs, and it affords an admirable substitute, being to all intents and purposes simply hens’ eggs with the water extracted, and ‘keeping” for years, even in a tropical climate. Dried eggs have been utilized largely in Alaska of late, in. the Klondike, and at Cape Nome. They have been furnished to British soldiers in South Africa, in Yankee cans. In this and other, ways the American hen is distributing her product all over the world, and recent arctic expeditions have carried similar supplies with them.—National Stockman. :

ON A SOUND BASIS.

From a Mere Pastime Poultry Keepe= ing Has Developed Into a Sound and Safe Business. .

Half a century ago poultry keeping was simply a fashionable amusement and pastime. 7The beginning may be said to be about 1847 to 1850, at the time of the introduction of the Shanghais. Thosé who have some knowledge of the history of the past have a fair idea of what poultry has accomplished. The: casual observer of years agoy saw only enough of it to disgust him with the whole business. Men who were engaged in it saw enough money in it, and as many as had judgment enough to curtail expenses and reduce stock at the right time came out with a little money and more or less experience, the latter worth perhaps as much in the long run as’the money. A great many so-called fanciers, however, went into the business merely for the sake of the speculation and excitement it afforded, and went out of it without knowing or caring anything about the ultimate results, of* thes poultry interest at large. Fanciers of this type (and it'is possible that there are a few of them in the business yet) were interested only in the proceeds, with no thought of what poultry breeding has ®oné for the improvement of the general stock of the country and the increase of the produets of the poultry yards of the nation. There have always been some fanciers who were true fanciers — not speculators—who worked for nobler ends

than merely to make money. The money end, of course, was not lost sight of, but it was not the governing purpose.—Farm and Fireside.

The slops taken from the kitchen and thickened with middlings make a good feed. Put the middlings in the pail after the pigs are fed, and lat the slop be poured over it and remain in the house until ready to feed. This will make it warm enough, and the pigs will relish it Country Gentleman., e

THE SUNDAY SCHOOL.

Lesson in the International Serier for January 13, 1901—The Tri- . umphal Entry,

THE LESSON TEXT. (Matthew 21:1-17.)

And when they drew nigh unto Jerusalem, and were come to Bethphage, unto the Mount of Olives, then sent Jesus two disciples. : 2. Saying unto them, Go into the village over against you, and straightway ye shall find an ass tied, and a colt with her; loose them, and bring them unto me. ° 3. And if any man say ought unto you, ve shall say, The Lor& hath need of them; and straightway he will send them. 4. All this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying, ‘ 5. Tell ye the daughter of Sion, Behold, thy King cometh unto thee, meek, and sitting upon an ass, and a colt the foal of an ass.

6. And the disciples went, and did as Jesus commanded them.: : .

7. And brought the ass, and the colt, and put on them their clothes, and they set Him thereon. 8. And a very great multitude spread their garments #in the way; others cut down branches from the irees and strawed them in the way. i 9. And the multitudes that went before, and that followed, cried, saying, Hosanna to the Son of David; Blessed is He that cometh in the name of the Lord; Hosanna in the highest. 10. And when he was come into Jerusalem, all the city was moved, saying, Who is this? * i

11. And the multitude said, This is Jesus, the prophet of Nazareth of Galilee. 12. And Jesus went into the temple of God, and cast out all them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthtrew the tables of the money changers, and the seats of them that sold doves. 13. And said unto them, It is written, My house shall be called the house of prayer; but ye have made it a den of thieves. 14. And the blind and the lame came to Him in the temple; and He healed them. 15. And when the chief priests and scribes saw the wonderful things that He did, and the children crying in the temple, and saying. Hosanna to the son of David, they were sore displeased. i 16. And said unto Him, Hearest thou what these say? And Jesus saith unto them, Yea; have ye never read, Out of the moutk of babes and sucklings thou hast perfccted praise? 17. And He left them, and went out of the city into Bethany; and He loiged there. GOLDEN TEXT.—Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord.— Matt, 21:9.

The incident of the lesson occurred on Sunday, April 2 and 3, A. D. 30. It is one of those great facts in the life of gur Saviour which are recorded by all four of the Gospel writers. The following is an analysis of the text: 1. Two of the Disciples Bring to Jesus an Ass and Her Colt.—Ver. 1-7. 2. The Multitudes Give Him Honor.—Ver. : .%.LHe Cleanses the Temple.—Ver, 12-14. 4. Children Sing Hosannas.—Ver. 15-17. Bethphage' was a little village west of Bethany. While the messengers were doing their errand, the visitors to the city of Jerusalem were talking of Jesus and wondering whether He would come. Some early pilgrims reported that He was at Bethany. So a crowd started out to meet Him. On their way they broke off branches of palms as a sign of victory. In the meanwhile other pilgrims, who had rested over the Sabbath on their way to the city, joined the group around Jesus. The commpany from the city met the others and, turning, went before them back to the city. One portion would sing the song in verse 9, and the others would shout the chorus of Hosanna, which means: “Save now.” This was part of .ne Hallel, or praise Psalms, avhic-h was often chanted as pilgrims came into Jerusalem. Find in Luke 19:41 whether the King Himself felt joyous as He caught sight of the city. At night He returned to Bethany. It was the next day, Monday, that He drove the traders from the courts of the temple. ‘ v The tendency nowadays is to forget the severity of Jesus and to relegate all that to Joshua and Moses and Elijah. And yet the most terrible things in all the Bible are to be found in the teachings of Jesus. And there were times when He locked around about .him in anger. And here He used a scourge of cords, possibly not on the men, but on the cattle that He drove out, but He did overturn the tables of the money-changers and flamed out in righteous indignation against their sacrilege. And yet How touching it is in connection with this severity of dealing with the traffickers in the temple to read: “And the blind and the lame came to Him in the temple and He healed them.” “Behold the goodness and the severity ot God.” - ) ’

The children ecried “Hosanna” and the scribes and chief priests cried: “For shame!’® 'The jubilant children in.this symbolic incident stand for all those in every age, who with docile dispositions aecept the truth as it is in Jesus Christ. And the haughty scribes and chief priests, who though they “saw the wonderful things that Jesus did,” instead of being convinced were only “moyved wiik indignation” when they heard His praises scunded by the children—these stand for the high-headed and proud-hearted in our time who determinedly set themselves against anything which does not fall in with their conceived preconceptions, and in which they themselves are not the leaders. The present lesson includes the events of the first two Geys of this last week of Jesus’ life. On Sunday was the triumphal entry and return to Bethany. On Monday occurred the cursing of the barren fig tree, cleansing the temple, healing of the sick and return to Bethany, THEY DROP FROM THE SKY. Shooting stars vary in weight from 80 grains to seven pounds. * In most cases of luminous meteors a train of light many miles in length is left behind. One characteristic of meteoric stones is the fused black crust, like varnish, with which the surface is coated. There are numerous records apd stories in all ages and countries of the fall of stones from the sky; but until recent times they were treated by philosophers as instances of popular incredulity and superstition. Meteoric stones have in times past been regarded with religious veneration. At Emesa, in Syria, the gun was wroshiped under the form of a black stone, reported to have fallen from heaven. The great stone of the pyramid of Chotu’la, in Mexico, has a similar history. : From the height and apparent diameter, the actual diameter of the largest fireballs is estimated to vary from about 500 feet to half a mile. One or two instances are on record where the train of the fireball continued shiriing for an hour after the

A Michigan Lady’s Battle with Dis=ease and How It Was Won,

Flushing, Mich., Jan. 7, 1901 (Special).—Omne of the most active workers in the cause of Temperance and Social Reformr in Michigan is Mrs. P. A. Passmore of this place. She is a prominent and very enthusiastic W. C. T. U. woman, and one who never loses an opportunity to strike a blow against the demon of Intemperance. Mrs. Passmore has suffered much bodily pain during the last three years through Kidney and Bladder Trouble. At times the” pain was almost unbearable, and the good lady was very much distressed. She tried physician after physician, and each in turn failed to relieve her, let alone effect a cure. Home remedies suggested by anxious friends were applied, but all to no purpose. - At last some one spoke of Dodd’s Kidney Pills as a great Remedy for all Kidney and Bladder Diseases, and Mrs. Passmore decided to try them. She did, and is now a well woman. She has given the following statement for publication: At different times in the. past three years, I have suffered severely with Kidney and Bladder Trouble, and after trying four of the best physicians I could hear of, two of them living in the State of New York, I found myself no better. I took any amount of home remedies suggested by kind friends, with little or no relief from anything. I decided to try Dodd’s Kidney Pills. Less than one box has done me more good than all the other treatments combined. lam still using them, and can say from experience that they are an excellent Remedy for Kidney and Bladder Trouble. I would heartily recommend them to all those suffering from these ills in like manner. _ MRS. P. A. PASSMORE, Flushing, Mich.
