EATON, OHIO BATON, O, Jan. Is. The third annual show of the Preble County Poultry and Pot Stock Association was opened Monday at Wat Alexandria. The list of entries Is the largest since the organisation of the society, and between 1,000 and 1,200 birds will be on exhibition. The work of judging the fowls will be done by A. H. Emch, of Toledo. Mr. and Mrs. Harry C. Black are arranging to move to Dayton about February 1. Mrs. Maude Thompson, who was operated on a few weeks ago In Seton hospital, Cincinnati, is reported to be improving. Roy Ensminger was here from New Parts, Snnday. James M. Noakes Is in New York In the Interest of the J. E. Parker company. Roy Robeson of Dayton, spent Sunday with local relatives and friends. The Rev. Dr. Weakley, of Cincinnati, a field representative for the M. E. Home for the Aged, Cincinnati, spent Sunday In Eaton. George W. Crabbe. of Dayton, attorney for the Ohio Anti-Saloon League, delivered a temperance sermon Sunday evening to a large congregation In the Christian church. A series of meetings was begun Sunday at the Church of Christ by the Itev. T. J. White, evangelist for Southern Ohio. On a paternity charge sworn to by Miss Stella Robey, of Georgetown, Ky., Rufus Watson, a former resident of that city, was arrested by Marshal C. O. Acton and brought up before Police Justice L. T. Stephen. The case was amicably settled by Watson's consent to mariige. The couple were issued a license by Probate Judge Arthur D. Davis and the tie was made by Justice Stephen. A "dry" period of three years having expired with Saturday, It Is probable that a petition asking for another election will be put Into circulation this week by the liberals. The "drys" have perfected an organisation and are preparing ot meet any attempt to have the county returned to the liberal column. Predictions locally Indicate that neither side Is confident of the result.

Law Points For Farmers. la an the states ot the Union boys reach legal maturity and responsibility at the age ot twenty-one years, and in most of the states, particularly in the middle west, the girls reach legal maturity when they are eighteen years old. Under the United States patent laws the owner of a patent is entitled to the exclusive right to manufacture and. sell the patented articles, and the making of such articles by another person, even though for his own use, constitutes an infringement of the patent Judge Lewis of the United States district, court at Denver has decided that a defunct insurance company can not legally collect assessments. He holds that an insurance company which comes Into Colorado and writes policies without living up to the laws of the state cannot collect In the federal court The Missouri court of appeals recently rendered a decision of value to shippers of live stock. W. L. Green shipped a carload of mules from North English, la., to Centralis. Ma, and one ngale kicked a slat off ot the car and badly Injured a hind leg. Green brought suit against the Milwaukee and Wabash railroads and the circuit court of Boone county decided that he was entitled to damages. On appeal to the higher- court, this judgment was aflrmed against both roads, the court holding that as both roads shared In the profits ot the shipment they were jointly responsible for any Injury sustained. Oeed Fee Cover Crops. A cover crop Is Important and should ' planted la toe orchard. The legtines are preferable It they are adapted to the soil, time of planting and soU needs. Crimson clover, red clover and vetch may be found adaptable. Wheat, rye, barley and oats can often be sown to good advantage. WcslAcbPejr.

KEEPING SWEET POTATOES:

Maryland Metheds mf Dealing With the Tubers In Winter. A Maryland correspondent of the Rural New Yorker asks: "How can 1 keep sweet potatoes until next spring for seed, to raise plants from them 7 With us they generally root along In winter." The answer is: Down in Wicomico county, Md.. sweet potatoes can be kept very well in heaps placed on a thick layer of pine leaves, putting about twenty-five bushels in a heap and covering with pine leaves a foot thick. Then a rough board shelter is put over the heaps, and they are let stand awhile to dry off from the sweat they go through and are then covered thickly with earth. The shelter is Important, as the dry earth keeps out cold better than wet. They have been kept in this way till June, but there is never any near sero weather there. Large growers are all provided with curing houses for the potatoes. These are furnished with beating furnace and flue, and after the potatoes are stored they run the temperature up to 90 degrees till the potatoes are dried off from the sweat. After that there is little need for lire heat In houses made with frost proof walls, for the proper temperature then should not be above GO degrees. A family supply might be kept very well with each potato wrapped in paper and packed in crates or baskets in a frostproof cellar. In the old days, when the cooking was done in a big fireplace In the kitchen in Virginia, it was a common practice to dig a pit under and in front of the kitchen fireplace. A trapdoor was right in front of the fireplace, and In this pit the family supply of sweet potatoes was stored, and they kept till potatoes came again. There are some varieties of sweet potatoes that keep better than others. The Hayman, also known as Southern Queen, keeps more easily than any other. It is an early and very productive variety, but not of as fine quality as some others. Hayman has been safely piled Id an ordinary cellsr. But with any potato the great point is In the handling in digging. They should be dug in dry sunny weather and let He along the rows to sun awhile and never thrown In heaps to bruise. Then gather them up in crates or baskets and handle them like eggs. Rough handling will make potatoes liable to rot, as every scratch will give the germs of decay a chance. The busiest farmer is either selling something he has farmed or farming something he wishes to sell. sg Holder Saves Labor. At thrashing time or at other times when there are bags to be filled the service of one man may be dispensed with by employing the simple and easily constructed device shown in the Illustration, which is reprinted, with the article, from the Orange Judd Farmer. A hopper is built that Is large enough at the top so the measures can be dumped Into same without spilling the grain. The bottom should be just large enough to permit a bag to slip over it with a lap of about two Inches. Smsll brads are driven into the bottom of hopper to project about half an inch and the edge of sack, at mouth, attached to these brads. The hopper is supported by a standard attached, to a base. This standard must be just high enough to hold the ordinary sack upright, so as to allow it to be completely filled, when it may be removed. Then by raising up a few inches and dropping to the floor the grain will be packed down enough to permit the tie and thus get the full capacity of each aack. For the Farmer Who Thinks. The winter Is a favorable time to blast out rocks and stumps and grub out elders and willows. There are places where alfalfa and clovers do not thrive, but the cowpea, that poor land's and poor man's friend, will grow most anywhere. Plant plenty of cowpeas next spring. Now, when the heavy wagon is not in use, is a good time to take it on the big barn floor, disjoint it and wash It and give it a good coat of paint. This will add many years to the life of the wagon. Those extra large weeds will make excellent filling to catch the sediment that is washed down in the ditches in the field, meadow and pasture land, and their seeds thus will be deposited where they cannot develop another crop of the pests next season. The young man who is planting a windbreak for his future home is making a mistake if he does not include a few nnt bearing trees. That four or five rows of evergreens should be planted goes without saying, but walnuts, hickory nuts and butternuts will more than pay tor the land and labor. Every day's food is affected or should be by the success or failure of the farm garden. A good garden makes a good table. "Like a garden" is the phrase expressive of perfect tilth. A good garden is therefore an unfailing sign that some one about the place knows what good farming is on a small scale at least Many a farm garden is the family demonstration plat, out of which grow progress and prosperity as well as pottage.

For the Children

Hew Pussy Keeps Her Feet Warm In Winter. Hens dislike to have their feet touch snow or ice. If they do so the bens try to keep them warm by lifting up first one and then the other and holding it under the feathers. During the greater part of the day hens, when left to run about the yard, will get on a piece of wood and seemingly go to roost. What they- are trying to do is to keep their feet warm. The cat has a similar habit of getting on a high fence or a board in some sunny place and then turning her paws Inward so that no part remains uncovered by fur and exposed to the cold. The gray squirrel is heavily furred in cold weather, but he delights to snuggle down in the nest within the hollow tree amid the dry grass, dead leaves and tree dust which he has collected to make his warm and cozy quarters. St. Nicholas. That Strange Word "Crowd." Do you know how many words in the English language mean "crowd?" Well, a few of them are given here. A crowd of ships is termed a fleet: a fleet of sheep is called a flock; a flock of girls is called a bevy; a bevy of wolves is called a pack; a pack of thieves is called a gang; a gang of angels is called a host; a host of porpoises is called a shoal; a shoal of buffaloes is called a herd; a herd of children is called a troop; a troop of partridges is called a covey; a covey of beauties is called a galaxy; a galaxy of ruffians is called a horde; a horde of rubbish is called n heap; a heap of oxen is called a drove; a drove of hoodlums is cMled a mob; a mob of whales is callell a school; a school of worshipers is called a congregation; a congregation of engineers Is called a corps; a corps of robbers 1m called a band; a band of bees is called a swarm; a swarm of people is called a crowd. New Year's In Japan. On New Year's all the streets of a Japanese city flaunt the national flags, which show a red ball upon a white ground. Before each house entrance stand two pines, on the right a red stemmed one and on the left a black pine. Beside the pine trees stand Blender bamboo canes, and the trees are joined above with a festoon of paper fringe and straw rope, ornamented with yellow, bitter oranges, bits of charcoal, lobsters and large bunches of red berries. These garlands also bring luck. Everybody In town is happy because of the New Year. The children crowd the shops, the boys boy kites, gorgeous singing kites, which as they fly make strange whirring noises like the sound of the aeolian harp. The girls buy dolls and pretty things to wear, and every one wears brand new clothes. Politeness. The extent to which a girl is called on to use politeness and tact in her daily life makes It necessary for her to cultivate a pleasing manner and to tie a respecter of all persons, no matter what their station is. Occasionally some girls are accused of discourtesy to their elders or being unkind to children or doing some little act which does not reflect to their credit. But politeness at all times should be followed, even to a fault, and consideration for others will widen our acquaintance. Queer Diet. The huge squads of police detailed to guard the coronation parade la London were given sticks of pure chocolate and bags of candy "drops" as the mainstay of their rations. Strange to say. this diet was recommended by the chief of police surgeons as the very best for a hard day's work In the sultry weather. Safe it is to say that the little English children for that day at least wished devoutly to belong to the police force. Conundrums. Why is a good dog like a minute .hand? Both are on the watch. What vegetable is like the blind? The potato. It has eyes, but cannot see. When is a cherry like a book? When both are red (read). When is a fowl's neck like a bell? When it is rung (wrung). Why are days long in summer and short In winter? Heat expands and cold contracts. Bill's Problem. Bald the thoughtful William Smithers: "There's something on my mind. Although I've pondered long- and well, bo answer can I And. And this la the information that X would Ilk to know: Where does the new year come from, and where does the eld year go?" Penalty of Initials. "It has been my observation," said the pretty girl, "that the greatest difficulty a girl experiences at a coeducational college is disposing of . the quantities of shaving soap sent her by manufacturers who copied the names of the entire student body from lists where boys and girls alike are registered by their initials and distributed his samples of soap impartially with the request that the recipient write a testimonial to the effect that it is the best shaving soap she ever used.

The

Scrap Booh Shutting Off Competition. Bishop Nathaniel S. Thomas of Wyoming visited the state penitentiary and endeavored to ascertain what causes had led to the downfall of the various prisoners. Almost to a man they told the bishop that love of drink had put them behind the bars. This interested him. and he asked each prisoner for his solution of the liquor problem, carefully tabulating the answers for future reference. All but one of the prisoners announced themselves advocates of prohibition. One man. a lean, rugged, leather necked convict, not yet bleached by prison life, denounced this plan when the iiishop suggested it to him. "The trouble with prohibition is it don't prohibit," he said vigorously. "What you want to do is to close up the distilleries. They're the boys to go after." "A sensible idea, certainly," said Bishop Thomas, making a note of it.

"lour plan is to stop the traffic at ltsf fjce. Advertisers will confer a great source. Excellent! You seem like ajfaTor Dy calling for m-. in answer very intelligent man. May I ask who I tQ their ads. Mail at this office, up to

It leads up to deeds Known only to the darkest hours of night. It tempts the upright man to throw aside Iis cloak of reason and go forth to dip His hands in human blood. Xt covers up The path where duty walks with steadfast feet. It will not listen to the soft appeals Of maiden loveliness or turn autde From its fierce purpose when the dimpled hands Of mercy are held up before Its gaze. It will not falter in its stubborn course When old age counsels with areat swelling words. It is the curse, of youth and middle age. Of gray hatred men and women. It benumbs The sensibilities of all alike. 'Tis only fit to live where madmen live. Safe stalled behind the strongest prison bars. Herbert IS. Day. Misnamed. An old lady was goiug over the London zoo, and after some time she went up to a keeper aud tapped him on the shoulder with her umbrella. "Well, mum?" said the keeper. "I want to ask you," explained the old lady, "which of the auimals in the zoo you consider the most remarkable." The keeper scratched his head for awhile: "Well, mum," he replied, "arter careful consideration, as you might say, I've come to the conclusion as the biscuit goes to the laughing hyena!" "indeed:" said the old lady in surprise, "nd why do you consider the laughing hyena so remarkable?" "Well, mum," answered the zoological expert, J'he only has a sleep once a week, he only has a meal once a month, aud he only has a drink once a year. So what he's got to laugh about is a bloomin' mystery to me!" A Case of Economy. Mrs. Johnson, the wife of the new minister in a New England town, asked a neighboring farmer's boy to bring her a dozen eggs and a roasting chicken when he brought the vegetables the next day. The boy appeared promptly, but in his basket were only eleven eggs. "Ma says she will send over the other egg after a while," he explained. "But what about the chicken?" Mrs. Johnson asked. "That does not seem to be here either." "She will send that, too," was the answer. "But," complained Mrs. Johnson. "1 want to cook the chicken for dinner. Why didn't you bring it over with you this time?" "Because," replied the boy, "the hen isn't killed yet. You see, ma's waitin' till she lays the other egg." Lippincott's. Scared Him Off. Ralph R. Bradley, a Chicago lawyer, bad a client who had some differences with a farmer down state. Mr. Bradley wrote in the interest of his client on a letterhead showing the address of the lawyer's firm in the Rookery. He received no reply and was obliged eventually to make a trip to close the litigation. Meeting the farmer, be asked him why he had not shown him the courtesy at least to acknowledge the receipt of the letter. "Well," said the down stater, "I noticed 'The Rookery' on your letterbead, and it bothered me. I am not an educated man, so I had some one look 'rookery' up. He told me it meant a den of thieves, and I concluded not to bare anything to do with you." Literal Interpretation. A sneak thief had got into the car and made off with a fellow traveler's pocket book. A greeny, who was evidently on his first trip to the city, had taken the episode In with a certain amount of relish and, despite his supposed greenness, apparently knew more about the Identity of the guilty one than any one present when the alarm was raised. He touched the conductor on the arm and pointed to a man who was harrying down the block for dear life. "There's the thief," he chuckled dryly. The conductor turned on him sharply. "You fool! If yer saw lm pickIn' th gent's pocket why didn't yer report 'im 'stead o' lettin 'im slip off that way?" "That sign np there scared me." returned the hayseed. ' "What sign?" "Th one thet sex 'Beware of Packeockets.' "Exchange. Lacked Capacity. Little Willis, a cherub of seven or eight years, returned home glumly one evening from a party. "Weil, did yon have a good toner his uncle asked. "No," Willis snarled. No? Why not? said the uncle. "Because." grumbled WiDis, "mother told me to eat as much as I and and 1 couldn't!"

A pretty American girl traveling la England was sorely tried by the annoyances and stares to which ehe wa subjected on account of her Americau "peculiarities." She went into a abo tihop in London to buy a pair of shoes, and the clerk tried on innumerable pairs of veritable "boats." as she called them, much to the amusement of two Englishwomen customers seated neat by, who regarded her through Iheli "starers" as if she were some strange animal in a menagerie.
