ONE FLAG OVER ALL.

Columbia welcomes to her doors
The Gentle and the Jew,
And finds home upon her shores
For men of every hue;
She asks not what their creed may be,
Nor if in prayer they fall;
Yet. while she gives them liberty,
One flag must cover all.
The Christian bears his Christening rod
Beneath the stripes and stars,
The heather comes from wooden god
And Juggernautal cars
All freely come to dwell in peace
In liberty's grand hall,
And all rebellious wars must cease,
One flag must cover all.
The pretty flags of clique or clan,
OF friends of foreign birth,
Should not insult the hope of man
Our flag, the best on earth.
Let factious banners pass away,
Nor prove fair freedoms pail;
Oh! heed Columbia's words to-day
One flag must cover all.

Prevention Of disease in Fowls.

There would be less need of publishing
instruction for the cure of disease in poul-
try, if more attention were paid to preven-
ton. Ordinarily it is not worth while to
give medicine to a sick fowl. The value
of the animal is SO small as not to pay for
the time spent. Besides, SO little is really
known of the ailments of poultry that
treatmens is uncertaia. The best way is
to get sound, vigorous stock at the outset,
and secure for them natural conditions,
when diseases of all kinds will be very
rare.
