Suffering is the most perfect disei-
pline of character. We all shrink from
it, as we shun the scourge or plague,
but it is only through affection that we
can ever hope to attain to stability and
true symmetry of manhood and Hom-
anhood. disappointment and sorrow
develop certain traits within us which.
if they remained dormant, would leave
our lives imperfect and incoln-
plete- We can acquire fortitude only
by surmounting fears; and endurance
we can gain only by suffering unmiti-
gated pain. Sorrows educate mind and
heart; they elevate, they purify the
baser passions We receive our best in
structions in conflicts with the world:
not in those trays in which we are vic
torious, but in the encounters that often
witness our defeat. We need the stern
and rigid discipline of outside trouble.
of inward struggle. that calls out the
best that is in US. Human nature is
weak enough as it is, but were it not
Tor the trials and temptations which it
must meet and resist we would soon de-
generate into a race of characterless
beings. We can not suffer too much in
order to be strong. Adversely is a
teacher which none should despise.-

AMONG THE POULTRY.

tot- Luis Ist 't++j44N-
GENERALLY, all fowls that feather
slowly are hardy.
CUT hay or clover, sprinkle bran or
meal over it and then scald with hot
water; this makes good feed for poul-
try.
WHILE the profits on commercial
poultry are usually smaller than on
fancy, they are generally much more
sure.
BEEF or pork cracl1lings. mixed with
corn-meal or wheat bran and baked,
ike an excellent feed for poultry OF
all kinds
If you can not afford to have full
! bred chickens, purchase at least a full
blood rooster TO cross with your COM
mon hens.
THERE is certainly 30 economy in
compelling poultry to stand around in
the cold mud all day: better keep them
under shelter.
GEESE can he picked regularly every
six weeks after the first of May. and
the feathers secured will pay well for
the trouble of keeping them.
RUBBISH under which rats can harbor
should not be allowed near the poultry
house or yards. Rats often prove very
| destructive to young poultry.
NEVER use a long, gangling, over
grown rooster for breeding. 1t is near
ly impossible to fill them up and they
never make good table fowl.
THE little chickens that are kept in
the breeders should be watered regular
y. Give them what they will drink
without getting themselves wet.
PEKIS ducks excel nearly or quite all
breeds of chickens as egg producers.
They will lay an egg every twenty-four
hours after they once begin until hot
weather.
As A general rule, hens should never
be fed so much that they will not
! scratch. Better scatter some of the
grain among the litter and let them
scratch for il

Eeve, taking one year with another,
poultry keeping under proper condi-
tons, will pay better than any other
industry connected with farming. con-
sidering the amount of capital invested.
If any one tells You he can make
profit of 8 or So per year on every hen,
or more on every duck, you may make
up your mind that he has secret which
the ordinary farmer does not possess.
My accounts show that when grain is
worth sixty cents per bushel, poultry
can be grown for seven or eight cents
per pound. and eggs for ten cents per
dozen. This will give from $50 to
s. profit on each fowl. if one manages

4 Suggestion Worth Considering.

It Is we'd known that oil is commonly
used incidentally in cases of consumption
in persons. 1t has been proved that a
diet largely consisting of cotton-seed
oil has been effective in the treatment
and cure of this disease. Why may it
not be beneficial to use this oil in the
shape of cotton-seed meal more largely
than heretofore as food for the cows in
dairies where the whole effort is to
draw out the last drop of fat from the
system to enrich the milk? Raw cot
ton-seed oil is cheap enough to use as
food. and if fed with the bran SO lib
orally used it would reduce the pro-
portion of heterogeneous elements in the
food and increase the fats.-Hsnry

Unpretentious Flowers That Afford the
Gardener Continual Delight.
If bachelors buttons once enter the
family gardens they come to stay-not,
however, to the discomfort of the
gardener, but, on the contrary. to his
continual delight. For this self-same
annual appears year after year under
the most adverse circumstances, to fur
nish its graceful, dainty blooms from
early summer to the very end of the
season. I only give them the odd cor
ners because of this pertinacity to live
and do well where nothing else will,
and SO oftentime they have but the
vegeta BILE garden for background
with but common potato or pea vine
for comrade. They are so very old
fashioned that think our great-grand-
mothers must have been the first to
plant the seed, and few of the flower
loving world of to-day are as well ac-
quainted with their merits as our an
cesters; yet, as old things are every day
growing more fashionable, why should
not this charming old flower?
