A lady correspondent of the american
| CattiUGtor says that "a hen to be profit
able must lay 200 eggs in year, and if
she does not come up to this mark she
should be disposed of, and others put in
her place, Every one of the flock should
De brought up to this standard of egg

would be worth something"

For shade in poultry yard, if quick
growing tree is required, the plum or
peach should be preferred. 1t will be
profitable to produce fruit and eggs on
the same location. The peach thrives
wonderfully in the poultry yard, not
only from the constant manuring it re-
celves from the droppings, but also be-
cause the hens keep the grass down as
fast as it appears.
A trip through the sheep-breeding dis
trlcts OF the country would soon convice
one that sheep are of inestimable value in
keeping up the fertility of the soil. In
England the fine breeds of sheeplcome in
! for their share in the extensive farming
OF the country, and recent writer on
farm matters makes the assertion that a
great deal of the fertility of the soil there
is due directly to the f1ocks. In clearing
and renovating old fields the value of the
flock cannot be overlooked, and there are
many poor, brier, bushy farms in this
country that could be greatly enhanced
IN value by letting the sheep roam over
the fields.
A Georgia farmer says that very inn
portant point in the growing of water
melons is the manuring. Many patches
are ruined by too much manure in the
hill Immediately at the root. Strew
manure heavily along the furrow, opened
wide and deep, ridge on it, then strew in
ridging burrows. Too much manure at
the root will make vines turn yellow at
the first little dry spell, and the melons
will ripen prematurely, and, of course,
you viii have melon that is sckly; but
melon fresh from a healthy vine is a
harmless luxury, unsurpassed by any
thing in the vegetable or fruit kingdom.
provided you have good kind.

press forward to the attainment of that
success that is sure to come to enter

preciative readers. The last clause of

For God and Home and Natiue Land.
Reasons for Thanksgiving by the W .C.T.U.
We are thankful that we exist.

We are thankful that we exist.
We are thankful that in nearly ev-
cry village, hamlet, town and city of
the Union thee floats sign or banner
bearing tho letters, W. G. T. U.
We are thankful that from east to
west, from north to south, wherever the
w. G. T. U. is established, noble work
is being done for God and home and
native land.
We are thankful for that wonderful
Worlds w. G. T. U. convention which
has been just held in Boston with del
egates from all over the world, even
Japan and South Africa being repre-
sented. Truly the Gospel of Temper
ance is spreading and God is blessing
the work of these consecrated women.
We are thankful that Redwood
Falls has only six saloons instead of
sixty.
We are thankful that it is becoming
so disreputable a thing to drink that
the back doors of saloons are more
used than the front. We shall petition
congress that there be no back DOORS
We are thankful that the most hon
orable and purest young ladies who
are as we'll the most popular do not
accept attentions from the young men
who frequent saloons.
We are thankful that dividing line
is boing established between respecta-
bility an the non-respectable saloon
keeper as was evidenced by the action
taken by the X. of P. convention tho
pas summer when the rule was estab-
lished that no saloon-keeper could be
received into that order.
We are thankful that the west as
we'll as the east is being agitated over
this great moral question. A recent
letter from a former resident, Mrs. G.
E. Smith, speaks in glowing terms of
the temperance work in progress in
the city of Seattle. That wonderful
temperance advocate, Francis Murphy,
is lecturing there and strong and en-
thusiastic army of temperance workers
are battling for the determination of
over 400 saloons.
Though the mills of the gods grinl slowly
Yet thew grind exceedingly small
While with patience he stands waiting
With exartnes' grind thew all.
