POULTRY ON THE FARM.


Prof. Gilbert, of Ottawa, Canada, in
answer to the question: Why is poultry
valuable to the farmer? gives the fol-
lowing reasons:
l. Because he ought by their means
to convert a great deal of the waste Of
his farm into money in the shape of
eggs and chickens for market.
?. Because with intelligent manage
ment they ought to be all-year revenue
producers with the exception of per-
haps two months during the moulting
period.
3. Because poultry will yield him a
quicker return for his capital invested
than any of the other departments of
agriculture.
4. Because the manure from the
poultry house will make a valuable
compost for use in either vegetable
garden or orchard. The birds them
selves, if allowed to run in plum or APP
pie orchards, will destroy all injurious
insect life.
5. Because while cereals and fruits
can only be successfully grown in Ger
tain sections, poultry can be raised for
table use or layers of eggs in all parts
of the country.
G, Because poultry raising is an en-
ployment in which the farmers wife
and daughters can engage and leave
him free to attend to other departments.
7. Because it will bring the best re-
turns in the shape Of new laid eggs
during the winter season-when the
farmer has most time on his hands.
S. Because to start poultry raising on
the farm requires little or no capital.
nder any circumstances, with proper
management, poultry can be made with
little cost valuable adjunct to the
farm.-Farm News.

1t is claimed that the saddle horse in

If you feed hogs on corn alone they
will have less blood, smaller liver, kid

Farmers as a whole cannot be in
duced to look kindly upon professional

The silo simply preserves what is

The honey bee is a pretty lively kind

When cool weather comes the swine
will bunch together and this must be
prevented as much as possible.
The carcass of hog fed on corn will
have say quarter less lean meat than
one that is fed on mixed rations.
Hardwood ashes fed to swine will
greatly strengthen the bone, and are
of high value when corn alone is fed.
There is a shortage of cattle of all

promises well for the beef producing

ENGLISH AS SHE is SPOKEN.
Ore Way to Spell Tomatoes, Five to
Pronounce 1t.


One word in its time has many pronuncia-
tons. For instance: Mrs. Housekeep the
other day was doing her mornings market
ing. With her had come the stranger who
was spending a week or two within her
gates. Standing by while she snapped the
beans between her fingers to see that they
were tender, parted the husks to make sure
that the corn was ripe, pulled the pears out
OF their paper wrappings and conducted her
self generally after the manner of careful
housewife, was the clerk, order book in
hand, and obsequiousness on his brow. The
visitcr-began it with:
These tomaaytoes look nice. Get some
there's a dearl"
To which Mrs. Housekeep replied: "Why,
certainly, if you like them" Then to the
clerk: How much are Tomatoes this
morning."
I'm not sure; I'll ask. jim" calling to a
fellow clerk, chow much is them termait-
ers?"
"Ill ask the boss Say" passing the word
further back, watcher gettin for tomat-
toes today"
"T'mats? o, two baskets for a quarter,
guess
Therefore, to please her guest who loved
"tomaytoes," Mrs. Housekeep invested in
some Tomatoes" and Jim, who was inves-
tigating the price of Tomatoes" for the
benefit of a fellow clerk who wanted to
know how to sell ''termaiters," was en-.
lightened as to what he should charge for
't'mats." And the bystander was left mar
yelling at the infinite variety of English as
she is spoke. Chicago Chronicle.

AND TOOTHBRUSH, TOO.
Cast Side Children on AN Outing Amazed
by Evidences of Luxury.


by Evidences of Luxury.
Sixteen East Side children of New
York City recently had an outing at a
country house in the northern suburbs
They were delighted with all they
heard and saw, but they found it hard
to believe that single family occupied
the house. Those soonest convinced
were heard again and again assuring
the doubters:
Yes, sure; there's only one family
lives in this house"
But even after this fact had been
accepted there remained further scep-
ticism when it was said that each men,
Der of the family occupied a room alone.
What. all this big room and nobody
with you?" said little doubter, look
ing in surprise about moderate-sized
bedchamber. The child's feeling, as
it turned out, was not of envy, but OF
pity for the loneliness of the sole occu-
pant.
The children were turned into the
lavatory just before luncheon, and in.
stantly there was babel of exclama'
tions at the abundance of soap and
towels. Finally one spied a tooth brush
and cried out: "A tooth brush, too,
and before any one could effectually
interfere half dozen of the visitors
had used it in turn.

Preiudice Easily Oyercome.

A Curious incident characteristic of
the proverbial conservatism of the Chi
nese occurred when the first cable was
laid along the coast from Picking to
Shanghai. Soon after it was laid lot
terry drawing came off in Picking, in
which many of the residents of Shang
hal held tickets. One of the gamblers
SO far overcame his distrust of the
Gu bic as to have the winning numb ers
sent him, and he bought the tickets
bearing them from his more skeptical
townsmen, realizing a small fortune
on the transaction. At about the same
time there was a scanty rice crop in
the upper provinces, and a Shanghai
merchant telegraphed to Picking in
structions to buy heavily, the ultimate
result being that he sold out at an i'm
mense profit and retired in opulence.
After two or three practical lessons of
this nature the Chinese came to the
realization of the fact that the tele-
graph is good thing to have around.

had to trust out too much. and the

among the dealers to get that, that the

there is a fire in it. TO fire it, place
some live Goals in it, drop in some Kind
ling and shaving, and then some short,
hard bits of wood or soft coal. Let
il get well started, and then put the
cover on the shorter pipe, and the fire
will burn slowly, but it will heat very
rapidly, in that there is not one par
ticle of heat radiated except through
the water.-Frederick o. Sibley, IN n.
