zHk POULTRY YARn
LlC0 o. Poultry.


The experienced eye of one Who has
been up In the poultry business can de-
tect lousy poultry at first sight. No
matter how few lice are on them they
will snow it, and can never be compared
with poultry entirely free from these
vermin. Not many years ago, it was not
an uncommon thing among some of the
farmers Of this State to find their cattle
lousy. What would any one Who has
any pride whatever in his business think
of being told that his stock was lousy.
WE'LL Just 50 with the poultry, about s.
per cent. Of which at the present time
are not laying eggs, and hardly paying
for their feed, from the fact that the
lice torment them SO much that it takes
up all their time sitting stupidity around
trying to free themselves from the
pests.
know, but how am I to get them
free from lice? have whitewashed the
hen house, coal oiled the roosts, scat
tered lime, given them sand baths. did
everything I could think of, and feel
sure my poultry are free from lice.
But to prove the test" catch some of
your poultry and examine them closely,
and behold. you will find they are still
there.
Yes, they have come to stay unless We
adopt some strenuous methods to keep
them of. Now, let us consider the
matter little. and We will soon dis
cover that the lice are after the poultry
and not after the hem house, roosts or
the nests. Yes, know all about that.
is the expression of nearly all. Well,
then, if we know all about it. why don't
We make the poultry SO offensive that no
lice dare come near them. by applying
the destroyer directly to the poultry.
and We have solved one of the greatest
obstacles in the poultry business

Kitchen Cabinet.


A mos. convenient kitchen cabinet On
table, said to have been designed by .
woman and made by her husband, should
have q place in every kitchen. The
table, which 10 of hard wood, is oblong
in shape and not very high. 1t con-
tains four drawers, two at one end OF
about the same size, long one in the
middle, and fourth small drawer atthe
other end. These drawers are to be used
for silver polish, soaps, securing ma
terial. brushes for silver and glass. for
dish towels and cloths, and the countless
other small things needed in dish wash
ing and baking. There are also several
shelves and open compartments OF diff
ferent sizes for holding the kneading-
board, rolling-pin. etc. But the special
feature of the table is high back like
that attached to q plain sideboard or
commode, against which are fastened at
either end cranes to hold the jelly bag
or other substances that must be filtered.
the cranes being so arranged that they
may be turned back against the table
when not in use.
Fastened against the back Of the table
are two very narrow shelves. containing
openings Just large enough to hold in
place the various knives. forks and
spoons used in cooking. which are sus-
pended in them vertically. In the CEN
ter OF the back is a small closed cabinet
in which may be kept the cook-books
and other kitchen memoranda. the door
of the cabinet being provided with .
rack where the cook book may be held
securely and open at the right place.
Such cabinet is Of great value in saw
ing both time and many weary steps,
especially for those mistresses who
have NO maids, or in fats. where every
inch of room has to be counted. By its
side should be q chair of convenient
height, for many things in housekeep-
ing may be done as we'll sitting as stand
ing, and not until women study convent
ences and comforts for the kitchen as
carefully as for other rooms, will house,
work cease to be what q clever woman
called an everlasting chore.

A. @. Ferguson, and he claims for his
invention greater perfection than that
attained by Edison in his monograph or
Berliner with his gramophone. Mr..
Ferguson calls his machine the lighto-
phone.
The mechanism is rather simple for
so wonderful continuance. 1t consists
of two disks and light shaft in which
is an arrangement of lenses. The disks
are revolved at right angles to each
other by means of hand crank and are
given rapid motion, one moving horl-
zontally, the other perpendicularly. On
the upper surface of the horizontal disk
is clamped highly sensitized plate.
Photographers would call it Every
rapid plate" On a level with it at one
side is placed a sensitive diaphragm,
which operates vibrating shutter
placed in the bottom of light tube.
This apparatus is completely enclosed
in hood which excludes all light ex-
cept that which enters through the
tube. The machine is fitted with a wide
mouthed horn, such as those used on
monographs. Into this the operator
speaks. The voice waves cause the dia-
phragm to vibrate, and this in turn
causes the light shutter to flutter in
unison. Each time the shutter opens a
ray of light strikes the sensitized plate,
and az the latter is revolved rapidly the
sound is recorded in series of wavy
lines. Exposures of the plate are made
at the rate of 1000 per second. The best
record obtained with the kinetoscope is
400 per second.
The plate is developed by ordinary
Photographic methods, and from it a
photo etching is made on a line plate.
From this plate disks of celluloid or
vulcanized rubber are made. When one
of these is clamped to the reproducing
disk, needle is dropped into the lines
and the handle turned. Then the light
ophone speaks. 1t reproduces the tones
exactly. They are not quite SO loud as
those which the gramophone produces,
but they are more distinct.

225 pounds could easily have been car

made in quicker time than any boat has
ever accomplished before and all records
were broken.
The Porter is l75 feet long and has
TX feet beam. She is low in the
water for her full length, but when
speeding her bow is lifted clear out, SO
that her forefoot is shown and her stern
settles down, giving the propellers q
chance to take a good grip. She was
built by the Herreshoffs, the famous
yacht builders. The contract called for
speed of %. o knots an hour over a six
mile course, but on her speed trial she
showed 20. "a knots, or over 33 statute
miles, an hour, and her commander,
Captain John G. Fremont, says he
expects that some day she will show q
speed of 80 knots an hour.

THE OLD AND THE NEW.

The grand lodge of Texas has decided
that six months is too short time for
officers of subordinate lodges to be
elected and has heightened the term
to one year. The excuse offered for
this change was that the short term
of office created too many past chan
cellors and thereby made the represen-
| tation at the grand lodge too great.
We believe the change is to the detri-
ment of the order, inasmuch as 1t will
cool the enthusiasm of many of its
leading members. Whether it be the
right principle or not, the fact re-
mains that but in very rare instances
can members be found who attend lodge
regularly without in some measure, at
some time, being honored with office.
In almost every lodge that has come
under our observation, the regular at
tendants have alone been the officers.
I They have been the workers who have
gone out among members and time and
again invited them to attend the lodge
meetings and succeeded in keeping up
the great interest in the order. They
are usually the members who get up
the amplified teams, that head the
movement for social gatherings and
demonstrations to create interest.
Under the semi-annual regime the
work of three and half long years to
"go through the chairs" very often
proved too great an undertaking for
the honor of becoming a p. c., now
that the time is made twice as long,

If one should start at outer guard and
go up under the old plan, he would

ing ready to take the p. C's rank; dou-
BILE that number and one would have
to work 1854 nights, or a whole year,
lacking one night. The truth is fur
Their that the making of P. Cs in no.
wise effects the number of representa-
ton at the grand lodge, irasmuch as
the regularly elected representatives
alone have voice in the grand lodge;
while P. C's have the rank conferred
upon them, return home ard sink into
| inocuous deseutude. Who ever heard
| of a past chancellor being a regular
attendant at local lodge meetings, to
say nothing of the grand lodge?
Brothers of the grand lodge, we are
afraid you will have to tie bouquets
to the ritual to keep up the old inter
est under the regime. These are facts
and not fancies- The Pythian Knight.

FASTEST TORPEDO BOAT,
Some Wonderful Performances on the
Porter's Practice Trips.

Some Wonderful Performances on the
Porter's Practice Trips.
The torpedo boat Porter, which has
been in commission about year, has
been astonishing naval experts and 9TH
ers by series of performances which
have proved her to be the fastest boat
in the United States navy and possibly
the speediest craft afioat.
Not long ago the Porter was out for a
practice spin in New York harbor, when
the Sandy Hook, the fastest steamer
running out of that port was sighted.
The Sandy Hook is scheduled to run at
a speed of 20 knots an hour; but, al
though her captain made desperate
effort to sustain the reputation of his
boat, the Porter not only overhauled her
in short order, but described complete
circle about the crack steamer.
A still more recent performance has
added to her laurels. With the members
of the naval inspection board as passen-
gers the Porter started out on q trial
run, not to test her speed, but to prove
that she was seaworthy. She made q
complete circle around Long Island, q
distance of nearly 800 miles, in IL hours
35 minutes, including two stops.
At no time during the trip was the
boat given her head. The steam pressure
