Careful dressing of fowls for the market has a good deal to do in getting top notch prices. :

One of the qualities of the soy bean that commends it to the stock feeder is its protein richness. - =

Much of the feeding value of the clover depends upon How the crop-is managed after it is cut..

Five feet apart is about the right distance for the currant and gooseberry bushes. Do not crowd. ¥ Breeding stock can be purchaséd to better -advantage in fall and -early winter than to walt until spring.: . If the hens are slacking up in lay«ing try giving them a little green cut bone every day and watch results. Where hens are forced to use part of their food as fuel to keep warm there is bound to be a falling off in eggs. Fruit growing and poultry raising go well together. Anyone following either will do well to consider the other, ; . . i ' The greatest ten-year yield of corn, - since it became -of national importance in the United States, occurred between 1870-1880. ; .

Corn is no doubt the hest feed there is for hogs, but its full value can only be realized when it is used in conjunction with other feeds.;

Quiet, gentle handling of the ewes during the winter makes ‘it much easier work -to care for the flock during the lambing period.

Don’t let any fruit remain on the trees during the winter. Rotten apples are good places for insects to hibernate .in during the winter.

The sum of money that is lost every year on the farms of this country by the dairy cows that are not bred especially for dairy work is stupendous.

reopl- are realizing the great comfort. and advantages of a few good fruit trees and ornamental" shrul‘)él more than ever. Start them growing.. All dairy utensils should be periodically placed in the sun, but wooden vessels should be rémoved before the heat is sufficient to crack or warp them. . : . Fruit {s the best medicine that we know anything about. Money invested in apples and strawberries is much better invested than it is in “sulphur and molasses.” . The next time the cow gives bloody milk give her a dose of epsom salts, bathe her udder with warm water and rub with camphorated lard. This will often cure the trouble. . The time to dehorn is in the spring or fall. Fall is considered best, because the cattle usually are shut up and any {ll effects of the operation can easily be prevented. -

Llover is as much an egg producer as it is a producer of milk. It is rich in nitrogen .and mineral matter. Having a high nutritive ratio, it is equal to;barley, and almost as high as wheat.

Don’t turn young harses out where the fences are low or easily pushed over. They will be sure to get out. Either they will jump over or they will run the fence over and step out. Good fences make good, orderly horses. -

The value of farm land can only be arrived at by its earning capacity. If it is worth any price it will pay good interest on the investment in the reg: ular farming process. We can add to its value by adding to its' capacity to grow things and grow them a little better than any other farm lin the neighborhood. :

The possibilities in the poultry business are almost unlimited. The city man or woman may start a little back yard poultry vplant and gradually develop into extensive poultry raiser. Some of our biggest poutry raisers of today have started that way and they are, as a rule, the most successful men and women in the business. They have grown up with it and have learn. ted every detail conmected with the same. Some of them have had-set-‘backs, but they stuck toit.

Cull out the roosters.

Whitewash the stables,

Balance the hen’s ration

Young pigs like vegetables.

The warm and busy hen is the best winter layer, :

Use few words with a horse, but have them understood.

It is as easy to teach a colt good manners as faulty ones. y

Desirable eggs are said to weigh about 24 ounces to the dozen.

If hens develop the feather-pulling habit send them to market at once.

Dairying is a cash business. The gcod cow pays for her board every day. :

Alfalfa will grow on nearly all good, well-drained soils, but best on a rich, sandy loam. ;

The first big need of the majority of the older corn belt soils is limestone and legumes.

It is better and more profitable to have a herd of fiver good cows than ten that ‘are inferior.

The green food problem in winter isn’t much of a problem if there is any alfalfa hay on the place.

Muddy and unclean stable yards are always sources of loss because of their insanitary condition.

There are but few horses that can not be made gentle and quiet by the proper kind of treatment.

The kind of feed which the cows eat often has an effect upon the flavor of milk and its products. .

The farmer who makes an effort to fill the corn crib and smokehouse each year generally succeeds.

Swedish turnips grow well in the northern states and provide a large amount of feed for the winter. )

The best stock pea for grazing in the field is the black. Everlasting, Red and Red Ripper are also' good.

~The farmer who s not raising legumes has his eyes closed to some of the biggest opportunities in farming.

The sand vetch is smaller and more recumbent than the common vetch, and has been tested but littlg in this country. : ;

Hens, when they cease laying, fatten very easily and a fat hen is a thrifty candidate for all kinds of poultry diseases, .

~ Penning chickens is the best way to get a fine flock, for it means that you are getting eggs from the best hens you have,

A hog fed on corn alone from the time it is weaned from the sow until butchered at 18 months old, seldom pays for his keep. :

‘The cows like the silage in the winter just as well as they do the grass in the summer and it is good at any season of the year.

Stout, livable chicks are obtained only from sturdy parents, and pullets that have been forced for winter eggs are hardly in that class.

Don’t blame anyone but yourself if your farm won’t grow legumes. They will grow for the man who knows how to make them.

It is poor economy to feed spoiled food to the poultry. They may contract disease or become poisoned. Burn all decomposed food . stuff at once. :

- The day has forever passed when the progressive dairyman allows his cows to be brought, running or excited, into the barn, by a dog or a boy with a whip.

Sheep in the summer are gross feeders, rapidly cleaning the land of brush and weeds, but in the barn and in the feed lot they are extremely dainty in their eating. o :

The best family horses, as a rule, are raised and trained on -the' farm. Their dispositions are then thoroughly understood, and it is known how far they can be trusted.

It pays to whitewash, ventilate and properly light the stables; to brush and curry cows; to use clean and well-covered = utensils, to cool milk quickly and to have a cool place for the milk.

The fruit farmer can always find something to do, either in the orchard or around the buildings. This business like any other is ruined by too much loafing. Keep the loose ends well in hand for the best results.

It often is your fault that hens get to eating eggs; but after they do contract the habit, lay the ax at the root of the tree—in other words, stop the business, short off. Then change your bill of fare. Something'lacking in the fced you have been giving. Balance the ration. Sh

A ¢olt should never stand on a wood or other hard floor until past two years, as this is liable to give him ringbone, and stiffen his joints. The man who makes horse-raising pay is the man who raises horses that suit the customers of the best class -of horses, and that means raising nothing but the best. ;

Keep litter in the scratching shed for poultry, from eight to ten inches deep in which scatter one gallon of wheat or oats at morning and noonj breaktwo dozen ears of corn to them in the morning and during the day give them plenty of green vegetables, or if you haven’'t the vegetables, give chopped clover or alfalfa hay. Give them a good warm supper of cooked vegetables mixed with bran, about all * they can clean up nicely. , =

OT only has Woodrow Wilson been elected president of the ‘United States, but, what is fully ‘ as important in the estimation -of multitudes of Americans, Mrs. Woodrow Wilson, and Miss Margaret Wilson, Miss Jessie Wilson and Miss. Eleanor Wilson will move into the White House next March. The place of the ladies of the White House has been kept before the country almost as prominently through all these years as has that of the president himself. Eternally questions.of precedence and etiquette have come forward. Thé. public has wanted to know all about the daily life and the domestic doings of the presidential family, the housekeeping woes of the mistress of the mansion and her behavior at the official receptions; the tastes and habits of all the feminine members of the family, and withal there have been at times little tales of boudoir plots and parlor intrigues, although the history of the United States has very little of the backstairs kind of gossip that has. played a large part in the histories of the nations of Europe. Abigail Adams, First Mistress.

The wife of the first president did not live in the White House, of course. Abigail Adams of Quincy, Mass., was the first mistress of the mansion, although in her time it was a mansion in the making, and the finishing seemed to her very far away indeed. It was she who used the ‘great, unfinished audience room” as a place in which to dry the family wash. . Dolly. Madison was almost as much mistress of the mansion in Jefferson’s time as in that of his successor, her husband, and it was she who saved the one piece of the original furnishings which is this day in the presidential residence. When the British burned the house in 1814 the redoubtable Dolly managed to carry away the portrait of Washington which hangs now over the mantel in the Red room.

It has taken a long time for the mansion to approach completion, and no sooner was it finished than it was destroyed by the ruthless hands of the English soldiery. .

The building which succeeded the first residence was a faithful reproduction in forms and dimensions of the plans drawn by the original architect, Maj. Hoban. The very foundations and part of the outside walls are relics of the building which went in fire in 1814. 5

Mansion Is Now Complete.

Then in 1902 there was begun the White House improvements which have resulted in the mansion of today becoming almost precisely what the ‘president’s house was inténded to be by those who made the original plans for it. It was necessary to relieve the residence of the necessity of being headquarters for the business of the executive. An office annex was built and thus the disfiguring additions to the mansion could be taken away. The original plans were studied for the resioration of the residence itself, and the buildings of the Univergity of Virginia, planned by Jefferson, -were investigated. A dining room was provided in which 100 guests might be entertained. Space

SEES HE TAKES HIS MEDICINE

No Chance for Man to Escape When a Woman is Responsible for Administering the Dose..

Ed Howe, the famous Kansas funny map and story-teller, has an article in the American Magazine in which he gays:;

“When a woman has charge of a. sick man she feels as important as the marshal of the day at a country Fourth of July celebration, and, however amiable she may be at other times, she is very bossy when she has medicine to give a man, or lotions to put on him; if he wants a drink of water, she expresses the opinion that he is drinking too much, and remembers that her Aunt Harriet’s husband once drank a great deal when he was sick, and had convulsions. If the sick man becomes impatient, and says the medicine is doing no good, she reminds him curtly that time is necessary; she has even been known ‘to dip into the classics and say that Rome was not built in a day. The air of wisdom with which ghe examines the doctor books con-

for the comfortable housing of such a family as that of Woodrow Wilson was secured? And finally, in 1912, the office building has been enlarged and reconstructed, so that the new president will have such family accommodations as many ‘of his predecessaors sighed for in vain. The story of the successive White House families has much of picturesque. variety. Not always has the mistress been the wife of the president. Buchanan was a bachelor; he had been disappointed in love as a young man. Jefferson, Jackson, Van Buren and Arthur were widowers. Grover Cleveland alone of the line was married in the mansion. Tyler lost his wife while in- office, and married again, but the ceremony took place in New York. Benjamin Harrison’s wife died while he was in the presidential chair. Mrs. McKinley was an invalid, as was the first Mrs. Tyler.

Andrew Jackson had a battle. that cost him more sleep probably than did the .battle -of New Orleans, a battle over the social recognition of a certain lady while he was living in the presidential home. The Pierces lost a son by a sad accident, and the calamity threw a ‘shadow over most of their four years in the residence. And each of the two last presidents has had a daughter to take her place as the first young lady of the land, and now the new president has not only one, but three. Lhh

Detecting Invisible Finger-Prints.

Officers of the San Francisco bureau of identification have, it is said, perfected a process by which they develop invisible finger-prints. The discovery consists of a chemical solution that is kept secret. In a recent murder case, a former suitor of the murdered girl was suspected. He disappeared mysteriously after the crime, but the detective found a time table in the room where the young man had lived. The new solution was sprayed on the pages of the booklet. Gradually green marks began to develop, and they proved to be bloodstained finger-prints. This was three days after the murder. A streak 'made by a finger soon disappeared. At the end -of it was a clearly defined finger-print. It pointed straight to a small village in Ohio, where the detectives journeyed and arrested their man.

Device to Frighten Baboons

A novel method of trying to get rid of the baboon nuisance in the Graafreinet district, Cape Colony, was recently put into operation by a farmer. This man conceived the idea of getting rid of the nuisance by capturing a full-grown male baboon, dressing him in all the colors of the rainbow, putting a sheep-bell round his neck, and turning him loose to join the troop to which he Dbelongs. The farmer believes that by so doing there will be no baboons seen in his neighborhood for a good many years.

A Proud Miss

*Miss Prinkle, I understand, is going away to a finishing school in Boston.” “Thank you for the information. When I passed her on the street yesterday I was at a loss to arcount for the unusual elevation of her chin.”

'\/V\IW\NVVWWWV\M/\MM vinces the sick man that, however intelligent his medical adviser may have been, after his recovery he will be informed that he would have been sick much longer had she not used her homemade lotions. Whatever she does at night, the doctor will agree in the morning that it was very good. “The sleepiest woman in the world will stay up all night cheerfully if she can get a chance to doctor somebody, and if a man has medicine to take at ah unusual hour he will get it, if there is'a woman around.”

Was It Cause and Effect?

The Young Doctor—Congratulate me. Got another patient teday. It's old man Stocks..

The Friend—That's great. They tell me ‘the aged imbecile is a multimillionaire. How did they happen to call you in?” i ; The Young Doctor (modestly)—l suppose they had heard of me. It's a good thing, you know, for a young doctor to have a special line of practice. Probably you remember that I had the old man Bonds. He only lived a month after I took His case.

IN THE BRONZE AGE

Rare ~Antiquities Secured by ‘Royal Irish Academy. =~ |

Bpecimens Recently Unearthed Prove High Civilization—Centuries Before Christ People of Erin Emerged From Barbarism.

Dublin.—The Royal Irish academy recently acquired some very flne specimens of Irish antiquities which show the wonderfully high level civilization had reached i® Ireland centuries before the birth of Christ. These objects are now on view in the antiquities section of the National museum in Dublin. They include two bronze <¢elts, two gold fibulae, a bronze fibula and a number of amber beads, which were dug up by workmen in a field in County Cork in 1907, :

One of the gold fibulae weighs over three ounces and the other nearly two ounces. The bronze fibula is of a rare type, and the amber beads are also of great importance, as the finding of them in association with the ether objects places beyond dispute the fact, which was often surmised but never definitely ascertained until now, that many of the amber beads found in Ireland can be placed in the bronze age. Another object recently added to the collection is the well-known ’rapier from Lissane, County Dery, of which the academy had previously had only a model. This rapier is the longest ever discovered in the British islands, and it is one of the most perfect ever found in Europe. I{ was discovered in a bog at Lissane in 1867, and after passing through various hands it eventually came into the possession of the Hon. Mrs. Henniker Heaton, wife of the British postal reformer, from whom the academy purchased it this year. There is another rapier which was found recently in Lough Erne at a depth of 17 feet under water, close to the old castle of Crom, near Enniskillen. . Mr. George Coffey, the leading Irish authority on this subject, de-

BIRD HAS TRAGEDY SECRET

Denver Police Hope Parrot Wlll Cleali' ‘ Death of Couple in a Hotel ‘ i There, |

.Denver, Colo.—A group of detectives began a vigil around the cloth draped cage of a parrot in the hope that the bird would testify as the sole witness to the supposed murder and suicide of Mr. and Mrs. D. C. Johnson, whose bodies were found in a hotel room Tuesday.

~ The bird was found walking restless1y along the footboard of the bed, muttering to the bodies. It had belonged to Johnson for years. The police, believing that there was a quarrel before the tragedy, called in an avliculturist to cross-examine the parrot. The bird refused to ans gswer and as a final resort the bird man suggested that the cage be covf& ered and watched. Believing itself along the bird might then croon some sharp ejaculations and exclamations that would impress it had a quarrel ‘occurred before the tragedy.

Backache Makes Anyone Feel Old

Nothing ages anyone more quickly than weak kidneys. .1t is. not alone the aching back, the stiff, painful joints, but the evil effect of bad poisonedJ blood on the nerves, the vital organs and the digestion. The condition of the kidneys makes good health or ill-health. The kidneys are the filters of the blood. Active kidneys filter from the blood every day over one ounce of poisonous waste and pass it off dissolved in the urine. If the kidneys are weak or diseased, only part of this filtering is done and the blood 1s heavy with uric acid and other poisonous or waste matter. » e Instead of being nourished by the blood, the nerves and vital organs are irritated, and the circulation, digestion, ete., ‘are disturbed. If your back aches eonstantly, if your joints are stiff, lame and painful, suspect the kidneys. Kidney sufferers are likely to feel dull, heavy, restless at night, rheumatic, dizzy at times, subject to headaches and annoyed with sharp, piercing pains that make work an agony and rest impossible. Doan’s Kidney Pills are the best-recom-mended and most widely used remedy for weak or diseased kidneys. They act quickly; contain no poisonous mor habit-form-ing drugs and leave no bad after-affects of any kind—just make you feel better all over.

THE BEST TREATMENT FOR ITCHING SCALPS, DANDRUFF AND FALLING HAIR

To allay itching and irritatiom of the scalp, prevent dry, thin and falling hair, remove crusts, scales and dandruff, and promote the growth and beauty of the lhair, the following special treatment is most effective, agreeabie and economical. On . retiring, comb the hair out straight all around, then begin at the side and make a parting, gently rubbing Cuticura ointment into the parting with a bit of soft flannel held over the end of the finger. Anoint additional . partings about half an inch apart until the whole scalp has been treated, the purpose being to get the Cuticura Ointment on the scalp skin rather than on the hair. It is well to place a light covering over the hair to protect the pillow from possible stain. The next morning, shampoo with Cuticura Soap and hot water. Shampoos alone may be used as often as agreeable, but once or twice a month is generally sufficient for this special treatment for women’s hair.

Cuticura, Soap and Ointment sold throughout the world. Sample of each free, with 32-p. Skin Book. Address post-card “Cuticura, Dept. L, Boston.” Adv. )

Rather Hot Shot for Doctor.

This incident is related of a Scotch doctor, new to the gun, who adventured upon a day’s rabbit-shooting. Chased by the ferrets, bunny was a rather quick-moving target, and the medico was not meeting with the success he anticipated. , © “Hang it all, man!” he exclaimed, impdtiently, to the keeper who accompanied him, “these beasts are too quick for me.” ! "~ “Aye, doctor,” the pawky keeper replied; “but ye surely didna expect them tae lie still like yer patients till ye kill them.”

Growth of Drug Habit in United States Alleged to Be Due to Opiates - ’ Ordered in Prescriptions.. -

" That 99 per cent. of all the cocaine and morphine manufactured in this country is used by persons who have formed the drug habit through physicians’ prescriptions is the ‘startling statement made by Dr L. F. Kebler, Chief of the Division of Drugs, Department of Agriculture. This statement, and others, proving that physicians and not “patent” medicines are responsible for the appalling growth of drug addiction in the United States was made by Dr. Kebler in an address at Washington, before the American Society for the Study of rAlcohol and Narcotics. .

Dr. Kebler is quoted by Washington papers as having declared that drug using had increased 100 per cent. in the last 40 years, and that American medical men were not discriminating enough in their use of opiates. Their overindulgence to their patients, he said, is creating thousands of drug users every year. :

"“It is a very sad ‘thing to say that our physicians are doing the greatest work in promoting the use of cocaine and morphine,” said the doctor. “State laws are not saving the public from the grip of the drug habit, and the American public is sinking “tighter and tighter into the black abyss of the morphine and cocaine fiend.

“The worst of it is that the importation of opium into the country is becoming larger and larger year by year. I have heard it said on reliable authority that 99 per cent. of the cocaine and morphine manufactured in this country is used by persons who have formed the habit through doctors’ prescriptions.” ’

Almost simultaneously with Dr. Kebler’'s address, Dr. J. A. Patterson, at Grand Rapids, Michigan, in a publie statement said that 19 out of every 20

patients who come to an institution with’ which he i# connected for treatment for the drug habit owe their dewnfall to physicians’ prescriptions.
