How to Have Nice Poultry.

A correspondent of an exchange says
"a farmer had just come into our market
with some very nice looking poultry. 1t
was not over fat, but just right mixture,
as a village epicure terms it, and the flesh
had very nice, clean, yellow or golden
look, which made it very tempting. l
asked him how he fed his chickens and
turkeys to make them have that appear
ance He said that they were fattened on
pumpkins, but on questioning him further,
found that he gave them half and halt
mixture of corn meal aud boiled pump
kins, and the latter feed impaired the
golden tinge to the flesh which made
them take so well in the market. This
may be hint worth remembering.
Another thing about this batch of
poultry is worth noticing. They were
dressed clean and nicely, and this added
to their market value The herds were
removed, and the skin tied down over the
stump of the neck, the wing feathers
pulled out, the entrails carefully removed,
aud they were dry picked This latter
spoke volumes in their favor"

She Always Made Home Happy

In an old churchyard stood stone,
Weather marked and stained;
The hand of Time had crumbled it,
So only part remained.

'' In memory of our mother :"
An epitaph which spoke of g home"
Was chseled ON the other.
I'd gazed on monuments of fame,
High towering to the skies,
I'd seen the scnlptured marble stone
Where great hero lies
But by this epitaph paused,
And read it DER and Ger,
For had never seen Inscribed
Such words as these before.
''She always made home happy"

A legacy Of memory sweet
To those she loved. bereft
And what testimony was given
By those who knew her best,
Engraven OH this plain, rude stone
That marked the mothers rest
1t was humble resting place
l knew that they were poor,
But they had seen their mother sink,
And patiently endure
They had marked her cheerful spirit,
When bearing, one by one,
Her many burdens up the hill,
Till all her work was done.
So, when stilled her weary heart,
Folded her hands So white,
And she was carried from the home
She'd always made 80 bright,
Her children raised a monument
That money could not buy,
As Witness her noble life,
Whose record is on high.
A noble life but written not
In any book of fame,
Among the list of noted ones
None ever saw her name
For only her own household knew
The victories she had won,
And none but they could testify
How we'll her work was done.
Better than costly monument

Such words of honor bear.
