A WORD ABOUT TURKEYS.
why Western Farmers should Raise More
of Them.


There are not nearly as many turkeys
grown as there should be. There is
never a year that turkeys are not more
profitable than hogs, for they always
bring a good price in the markets, and
the supply is rarely equal to the de
mand.
The bronze turkey is the favorite with
most breeders. as it grows to large
size, and is about the hardest of all the
varieties. The only rival it has that
amounts to much in the west is the
white variety, which is growing in favor
because of it's beautiful appearance
when dressed, and the fine quality of
the meat. 1t does not grow as large as
the bronze turkey, at the same age, bu;
is preferred by many consumers, ant
they are often willing TO pay something
extra to get one.
Young turkeys (poults is the propes
name) are somewhat tender at first, and
must be carefully looked after for the
first few weeks of their lives, and kept
from being exposed to rains or early
morning dews.
They she uld be fed for the first few

The CADpS WISDOM.
His Unique Method of Settling a Diaicult
Question

His Unique Method of Settling a DinicuIt
Question.
There 10 a story, current among the
Persians, which sets forth the disclos-
ing power of wisdom, whereby a wise
man uncovers the thing that is hidden.
A certain cadi. or magistrate, was
called upon to decide a curious case. A
woman wus claimed by two men as
wife; one peasant, the other a mir "a,
or scribe. Each of the two men swore
10 the truth of his claim. The woman.
for some reason, was silent. The cadi,
unable To get any evidence which cor
roborated the claim of either of the
men, ordered the woman to remain for
time with his own wives.
The next day he handed her over to
the scribe, and ordered the peasant to
be severely bastinadoed, that is, beaten
on the soles of his feet. Then the
woman broke silence for the first time
and praised the just judge. The spec
tators also applauded the justice of the
cadi, but failed to see the grounds of his
judgment.
Il told her to milk n cow" said the
cadi, land she couldnot. Then handing
her my writing case i told her to put il
In order. She took the little silver
spoon and replenished my inkstand
with water. Only the wife of man
who could write would have done this
correctly. Hence my decision"
The woman's act of replenishing tho
inkstand with water, instead of with
ink, is explained by the fact that Per-
sian scribe writes with India-ink. A
sponge-like ball of silk, full of this ink.
is placed in the inkstand and moistencd
with water to keep it from becoming
dry and hard.-Youth's Companion.

The above correspondents statement
tallies, says the London Standard, with
an incident which occurred some years
ago, when a certain person was charged
with illegally manufacturing cigars.
His defense was that the cigars he man
ufactured did not contain a particle OF
tobacco. And, what is more, he proved
his case. His cigars were made oil

leaves. and STEPPED in tobacco juice.

Simpson-with all the property that he
has got. and with his known habits for
sobriety. Where is Rhoda tonight, by
the way?"
"Wh-why. she's at Mrs. Wheeler's.
She'll be back soon"
''Why should she be over there?"
Probably because she was invited
over there" responded Mrs. Harmon,
bridling a bit. Cant that girl have
an evening out without you getting
ugly abourit?"
Mr. Harmon bit into hot muffin
and had nothing more to say.
The national holiday opened as usual,
about three a m, with the firing of
anvils and the enthusiastic but uncom-
pretending plaudits of the American
small boy.
Rhoda Harmon appeared very demure
at the breakfast table on the morning
of the GLORIOUS Fourth" She had little
TO say, but she smiled compiacently as
she took her seat and looked at her
mother over the top of the tall Ca.
pewter coffee-pot.
How do you two women expect TO
spend the day2" asked Mr.. Harmon.
with a masculine snort.
Il suppose you'll follow up the fool
programme the committee has made
out, and by the time you get back home
again you'll be half dead: and, Rhoda,
don't suppose your friend Tom Wheel
er will overlook an opportunity like this
to install himself as the escort of the
female members of the Harmon fam
ily?"
Rhoda answered not word. merely
glancing at her father as he drew back
his Chair in a manner intended TO be
expressive of disgust, and left the
breakfast table and the house.
