The Whole Teaching OF Life.

The whole teaching of bis life. in
deed. is to leave us free and to make
Us reasonable, and the supreme lesson
of his life is voluntary brotherhood,
fraternity. If you will do something
for another, if you will help him CT
serve him. you will at once begin to
love him. know there are some casu.
lists who distinguish here, and say that
you may love such an one, and that, in
fact, you must love every one; but that
you are not expected to like every one.
This, however. seems to be distinction
without a difference. If you do not
like a person you do not love him,
and if you do not love him you loathe
him. The curious thing IN doing kind
ness is that it makes you love people
even in this subiimated sense of liking.
When you love another you have made
him your brother: and by the SAINT
means you can be brother to all men

Lasborns Easily kaised.


Ihave been keeping poultry for three
years. During that time have kept
the Barred and White Plymouth Rocks,
Partridge Cochin, Golden Wyandottes
and Brown Leghorns. The Wyan-
dottes, Leghorns and Plymouth Rocks
are favorites with me. Their house
has been a frame building lined with
tarred paper, packed with sawdust, and
with a wooden roof. We give them a
warm mash for their morning meal,
wheat or rye for noon, scattered in
straw so they will scratch for it, and
at night we feed corn. Our markets
are generally good, except at holiday
time. Under this management, we get
eggs every day the year round. We
have lost very few hens from any
cause. We find that Persian insect
powder is just the thing for the lice.
We have had little experience with
disease among our fowls. We have a
few cases of roup now and then, but
we find that spongia cures it, If the
disease be taken in time. Camomile
is also good. In severe cases of roup
we find the Ratchet is the best remedy.
We find that the White Plymouth
Rocks and Brown Leghorns are fine
layers and also good foragers; you
can raise two Leghorns to one Of any
of the larger breed.-Mrs. w. c. Jack.

Artichokes for Hogs.

Articho<es for Hogs.
Hitherto the growing of this valu-
able tuberous rooted perennial has
been almost wholly neglected, and
greatly misunderstood. During the
bast few years the tame" or domes-
ticated sorts of the artichoke have been
imported from Europe, and are grad
aally making their way to an extern
tive cultivation in the United States.
Canada and Mexico. 1t is in place In
this connection to mention that there
Is a deep-seated, long-standing pre1u-
dice against the artichoke among the
farmers of the United States.
But there is wild rye and tame"
rye, wild" onions and tame" onions.
wild" barley and "tame" barley.
wild" lettuce and tame" lettuce,
etc. Almost every grain and vegetable
cultivated and used as food by man has
Its namesake in a noxious and often
times dangerous weed. The artichoke
Is no exception to the general rule.
The wild artichoke being indigenous
to most localities. wherever the soil
Is suitable) in North and South Amer
lea. It is merely bad weed-a dan
gerous pest. which produces few and
small tubers and spreads its long
fbrous roots out a long distance and
deep down into the soil, making Its
determination a difficult task. Many
farmers who have seen it growing I'M
derstand it fully. But the same farm
ers do not understand that there Is
difference vast difference in the
wild artichoke and the tame" arti-
choke. In fact they are as different
as is wild and tame" lettuce. or is
wild and tame" rye.
During the past few years the tame
or domesticated sorts Of artichoke have
been imported from Europe and are to
q great extent becoming known and
cultivated on this continent, as a cheap,
healthy stock food. The tame" ar,
tichoke can be as easily grown as corn
or potatoes. and on land that will pro-
duce 80 bushels per acre Of Indian
corn. 500 bushels per acre Of artichokes
can Be easily grown. The writer ire
Quently does this and has grown over
80 bushels per acre on ground that

Then when your pasture plays out"
in the fall, or about September Is to
October 1, you will have fine food in
your lots for your hogs, where they
will root at intervals whenever the
ground is not frozen too hard until the
following May. when they will have
received Al much real benefit from one
acre of artichokes as from five OF corn,
at q very conservative estimate some
say ten acres. The hogs will also leave
enough tubers in the ground to serve
as seed for tho next crop. 1t is hogs

for the human being. Aver. Of sarsa-
parilia fame. can fully explain this.
After a hog has eaten artichokes to his
hearts content, the roofing notion will
have been put entirely out Of his head
and he will not root up his spring or
summer pasture. A wealthy hog

qualntance, and who has made $50

says he would not be without q big
annual patch Of the tame artichoke,
and that he has had no hog diseases
in his herds since he has allowed them
to root in his artichoke patch to their
hearts content.
He claimed that a SOW will never eat
her pigs If she has been previously
given a good feed of artichokes. The
artichoke (tame sorts) is wonderful
soil enricher, fully as good as red
clover.
The writer cuts the tubers to two
eyes per piece and plants precisely
same as potatoes, and cultivates pre-
cisely same as corn. They grow about
eight feet high and grow so dense
that weeds have hard time in an

their plumage Is bright bun. They
