Rhode Islands Veterans.

Ii you meet Ex-Governor Ladd, of
Rhode Island, ask him how he turned
the laugh on the group of distinguished
people amid whom he sat in the presi-
Dental grand stand at the Grand Army
display. Everybody who is ON speaking
terms with him knows that he is as
proud of his little state as though it was
as big as Texas, and the chatting to
which he was subjected while the
thousands Of men in the departments
from the great states were marching
past was not calculated to make him
particularly comfortable.
Don't forget your spyglasses when

queried Mrs. Alger.
And so it went for couple of hours.
Finally little Rhody's department flag
was deserted turning into Huntington
avenue. Then came the department
commander proudly riding ahead of a
staff as numerous as the largest Then
came Reeves splendid band, and then
platoon after platoon and post after post
of splendidly equipped veterans. Mr..
Ladd was surprised himself at the dis
play made by his state. and when after
the division had passed he turned to
scan the faces of his prosecutors they
were looking abstractedly at nothing in
particular. They saw his. smile out of
the corners of their eyes, however; it

One of the hands on board the steamer
Penobscot, of the Bangor line, has
gained wide reputation as a story
teller. 1t was recently that this famous
raconteur favored a select audience with
this Renaissance of his early days: "It
was beautiful afternoon in July" said
he, 1.-The sun was pouring down through
the hay fields, and as we toiled with
scythe and rake we felt tired and weary.
"Coming suddenly upon patch Of
Strawberries, we sat down and Toasted
upon the luscious fruit, the single ber-
ries being as large round as your fist.
While we sat enjoying this delicious re-
past we suddenly saw bear come out
of the woods on the other side of the
meadow and make for us. You can bet
we ran for our lives. being the latest
fellow could not keep up with the rest,
and more than once the nose of the bear
grazed my legs as flew along. Reach
ing the river about two miles from the
field, we rushed out upon the ice. 1t was
so slippery that the bear could not keep
up with us, and we made our escape. "
One of the fellows hearers innocently
remarked that he would have believed
the story IF the critter hadn't lied so
about the size of the Strawberries. y

"MAkE HENS lay"

Such is the caption of an advertisement
that appears not only in the local, but
but many leading agricultural papers
and which suggests the propriety of
few thoughts upon the subject. 1t may
be laid down as rule that most far
mers indulge in raising poultry not for
the pleasure it gives, but for the profit
that is realized from the same which must
come from young chicks or eggs, and
since the chicks must come from the eggs,
the real profit may be traced to egg pro-
duction, so the advice given in these
words is of vital importance to the am.
bilious farmer. ''The advertisement re-
fered to recommends Sheridan's Condi-
ton Powder to make hens lay and so do

English Walnut.

There is no nut bearing tree which is
capable of being made more profitable
than the English walnut. The nut is
always in large and profitable demand,
and the tree is an unusually prolific
bearer. 1t is hardy and is readily grown,
but seldom does at all well in far north
ern ATTITUDES. In the vicinity of Phila-
delphia we have seen a tree of this vari-
ETY. that produced annually about forty
or fifty bushels of fine, marketable nuts.
In Virginia and states in similar latitude
it should be made to pay handsomely.
Its widespread habits Of growth make
it necessary to give it plenty Of room.
and we should say that forty feet each
way, rather than less, should be accord
ed, the intervening space being utilized
with ash trees. The wood could no
doubt be used in many ways, and the
reason it has not been is from the fact
that there has never been enough of it to
enter into any of the calculations of
those who use valuable woods in manu-
facture. Its greatest value as tree
consists in its nuts, which are second
only to almonds in commercial value. A
well set grove of these trees would be a
handsome sight. Ledger.

CHARCOAL FOR POULTRY

Charcoal is an article which is often
neglected by the poultry keeper, or at
least it is not generally given the atten-
ton its importance deserves. One of the
most important and valuable features of
charcoal is that it has very important
cleansing influence on the fowls system,
and is especially valuable when fed to
laying hens during the breeding season,
or in fact, at any time of the year. They
do not have to be forced to eat it, as
many are led to suppose, but will eat il
of their own accord quite greedily, aud
seem to relish it. and it is really wonder
full to see how much they will devour
when they have the opportunity, and
especially when they have been deprived
Of it before. Since the charcoal thus
acts as cleanser to the fowls system, il
is quite valuable as a preventive OF
disease, and in this respect alone it will
great deal more than pay for the cost
and trouble of obtaining and preparing

1t. 1t is one of the best antiseptics we
have, so that it is easy to see at glance
what great benefit 1t is to the health
and general thrift of the fowls. Ashes
from wood stoves, which contain the
coal of the wood, answer about the same
purpose that charcoal does, and should
be saved carefully and fed to the fowls.
At all event see that they have it before
them in some shape at all times, and it
will be material benefit to the fowls,
while the trouble and expense incurred is
really not worth noticing.-[Fancers'

THE WINTER GARDEN.

There is much activity in the garden
now. although the fading flowers and
yellow leaves speak more of decay than
lively action, says a writer in Boston
Journal. All large greenhouse garden
ers are making cuttings in sand beds.
The scientific method of planting gera-
NUNS is explained by the gardener at
Central Park as follows: "The cuttings
should be from five to six inches long.
All the leaves should be stripped of close
to the sprout, except the top ones. This
is done to prevent too great an evapora-
ton of moisture. The cutting should be
firmly planted to depth of one and half
or two inches. In two or three weeks the
cutting takes root and is ready to be pot
ted. and either put in a hotbed for the
winter or stored away in another green
house. If the geranium is needed for
winter blooming, the plant should be
ported in small pot filled with rich
loan, then cut back till it looks like IL
small stump, and put in some sunny
place. Each year there is greater APP
probation of ANNALS for the winter gar
den. and seeds are now sown in the fall
with as much pleasure and hope as in the
spring. There is an eager desire for
morning glories, which blossom as
brightly in winter as in summer, though
er. A pot filled with dozen morning
glories will be a feast of winter bloom.
Nasturtiums are planted singly in pots.
The best authorities say that the trop-
ers, can be trained around windows with
blooming vines. Petunias are now being
planted in rather small pots. Among
other seeds recommended for the winter
garden are the white Towering candytuft,
mignonette, phlox and sweet alysums.
Added to the geraniums begonlas, iyies
and calendulas. with as many bulbs as
can be afforded, the ANIMALS will make a
delightful display of blossoms at small
expense. The windows of hardy flow.
ers, which one notices each winter
proves that a greenhouse is not neces.
sary for the cultivation of plants or fol
their best enjoyment. With painted tin
cans and four or five papers of seeds, the
economical housewife may prepare win
ter garden that will give constant plea
sure to the family. The vase of bright
nasturtiums on the table will seem al
the gayer from the personal care devoted
their cultivation.

Cost per day. .......... ......S 81 y
The writer also adds the following as
an exultation of the fact that the hens
can beat the cows:
II claim that can take care of this
flock of hens with less labor than two
cows require. Drive up your 1914 worth
of cows and show up your figures from
them
The above is very encouraging to those
who know how to make poultry pay.
Like everything else the poultry business
demands work and attention. The hens
cannot be neglected any more than the
COW. The writer cleared about 800
from less than 200 hens.
1t will be seen that the skim milk is
inquired at one cent quart, the grain at
about what it would cost here, the clover
rowen at Sl3 a ton, and the small pota-
toes at about twenty-five cents a bushel.
BY these liberal estimates the cost Is ma
terially increased, but the ration is a pro-
fitable one to study. Striking out the
poultry food, and fixing the value of the
second crop and potatoes at what they
are worth here, the cost per day would
be about two mills and one-third per
head Exchange.

The paths our weary feet must go.
Our father knowing this
Has yelled the future from our anxious sight
The wished for morrow cometh after night
And after sorrows-bliss
'Tis night that ushers In the day,
Tis death that takes our cares away.
God knowing this
Has given us on earth our barren years,
Our heartaches, sorrows, griefs and tears,
And after sorrows-bliss.

While youth and beauty quickly foe away

Will upward soar above the radiant stars,
