AUTONOMY FOB CRETE.
Sultan Said to be Anxious to Come
to an Understanding.


Constantinople, March THE diplo-
mats here have received the answer of
the porte 10 the collective note pre-
sented on Tuesday last, setting forth
me desires of the powers regarding the
granting of autonomy to Crete under
the suezarainty of Turkey. The porte
assents to the terms of the powers,
ana says il hopes that there will be
uennite understanding between it
sell and the powers respecting the de-
talls OF the autonomy TO be granted?
the reply bears out the ste tement of
the United Associated Presses that the
sultan is rather glad than otherwise to
nave the long Cream question settled,
even though he loses the island.
While number of Greek engineers
were engaged in repairing the main
roads near Melun, on the Greek from
tier, presumably for the purpose of
facilitating the passage of troops. they
were stopped by a body of Turkish
troops A rumor reached mere today
that serious encounter between
Turks and Greeks had taken place on
the frontier, but though inquiries have
been made it has been impossible to
confirm the story 1t is thought prob
able that the report originated in the
stoppage by Turkish troops of the work

the chicks must be taken from her as
fast as they come out of the shell and
get dry, and eggs substituted for the
chicks. a sitting hen does not notice
the passage of time and is perfectly
comfortable and happy while brooding
over her eggs, and to her six or nine
weeks is the same as a day. A hen
that has been setting six weeks usually
comes off fat.
In every flock, no matter what the
breed may be, there are certain hens
that are better layers, better feeders
and better looking than others of the
same flock. 1t is in the selection of
these that skill is shown Any one
can acquire the skill if he has the pa
thence. After all, patience is one of
the great secrets of success in poultry
keeping, as it is in every walk of life.
1t is just as easy to keep a thousand
hens as 1t is to keep a dozen, after
you know how. No man without ex-
perience would try to keep a thousand
this after having tried a smaller num-
ber 1t takes just as much good sense
to keep a large flock of poultry as it
does to keep a large sherd of hogs or
cattle, no more, no less.
Did you know that a poor hen never
sets? If you do not believe it exam
inc a hen when she first begins to get
her butter" fat. The coat of fat is
natures provision for the abstinence
of the three weeks of setting. If you
want your hens to lay do not let
them get too fat
Any flock may be bred up to good
characteristics in two or three years.
Select the breed you admire most and
breed your hens to males that breed,
changing them each year. The first
year will show a marked improvement
and each year after that will intensity
the advance.
The average farmer keeps hens for
the eggs they produce. The poultry
of itself is a side issue. This being
the case, it is the part of wisdom to
keep those breeds which produce the
most eggs.
Turkeys are more profitable than
hogs, and are about as easy to raise.
The demand for them is always good
and the market is never so overstocked
that prices fall low for any length
of time.
Another mistake is in breeding year
after year from year old hens The
custom of selling off the old hens be-
cause they are a little heavier than
the pullets of the previous season is
most reprehensii,'e one. as young
turkeys from pullets' eggs are never
as hardy as those Matched from eggs
of mature hens. Turkey hens should
continue TO produce eggs for several
years. 1e

Washington. March President Nc
Kinley's first Sunday in the White House
was quiet one. No callers were re-
ceived. and the president had an oppor-
tunity of recovering from the fatigues of
the week. He arose later than usual

At 10 clock, he prepared for church,
and, accompanied by his mother, attended
services at the Methodist Episcopal

was accustomed to attend. AS the presi-
dents intention had been announced, the
crowd was very large and the president
and his venerable mother had consider
able trouble in making their way from
the sidewalk to the church vestibule
The president was shown to what is
called the presidential pew. The other
occupants were his mother. Mr. Abner
Mckinley, mis- brother. and private sec
rotary, and Mrs. Porter.
The Rev. DR.. johnson, the pastor,
formerly of Canada, opened the service by
PRAYER, and the Right Rev. Bishop New
pastor of the church when General Grant
was president, preached the sermon. The
sacred edifice was crowded, the aisles
We're all filled and many could not gain

From this text he preached an eloquent
discourse. Good laws good government,
knowledge of philanthropy, the pastor
said. We're all good, but would not be
sufficient.
Seek first the kingdom of heaven is
tie first and last principle of political
economy.
When the distinguished party left the
church by the street entrance the crowd
was so great that the police had to clear
the way. AS President Mckinley passed
with his mother on his arm, the crowd
cheered and the president dotted his hat
several times. Entering the carriage, the
party drove at once to the White House.
Mrs. Mckinley, the presidents wife,

doors until afternoon, when he took a

New York, March ga special cable
to the Herald from st. Petersburg
says: That portion of President Nc
Kinley's speech referring to his exterior
policy has received universal approba-

Are All With George.

Philadelphia, Pa, March IA com
pany of Greeks assembled today and
earnestly talked over the situation.
Every one agreed that King George
had adopted the proper course. Many
Greeks were eager TO go back and join
the army, but most of the men in the
classes referred to are unable to pay
their passage. When the official order
from the Greek foreign minister is re-
ceived here, a meeting of the Greeks
will be called to devise means by which
those whose presence in Greece is COM
pulsory can be sent back.

Poultry Pointers.

No farmer should allow a scrub cock
to run with his hens, says the Farm
ers' Voice. No one breeds to scrub
sires any more. and there is no reason
why scrub poultry should be counte-
nanced.
More fiocks are overfed than under
fed A fat hen gets lazy and sits
around until she gets broody, while one
that is fed just a little less than she
will eat is rustling around for the
amount her appetite calls for, and is
healthy and productive.
There is no medicine for poultry like
pure food, good care, comfortable quar-
tiers and all the sunshine possible, in
and out of doors. The beauty of all
this is that it is the kind of medicine
that is at the disposal of every one,
without money and without price.
