It appears that he is still liable to the government to the extent of 89l, GOO francs for fines, costs and legal expenses. The courts rea gently decided that the unfortunate nan, who is completely ruined, should either pay this sum at once or be i'm prisoned for another year. Naturally he chose the latter. and has now the con- solation of knowing that every minute spent in the penitentiary is wiping off, roughly speaking, about 3 cents Of his debt to the state.

POULTRY FARMS.
Chicken Raising by Women Tssr Cities
and Small Towns.

The raising of poultry is one of tho
most suitable occupations for women
who live in small towns or in the coun-
try, and when properly and practically
managed money can always be made.
Children usually like TO help about
chickens. and the mother can nearly al
ways count on her boys and girls taking
On interest in the poultry farm, espo-
cially if they are allowed to have few
chickens of their own The statistical
bureau reveals an interesting and sig
nifcant fact The cash value of the cot
ton products Of the United States for a
certain year was given at $40, 600, 900,
the dairy products S254 GOO 900, while
the poultry products showed the robust
sum of $3.50, 600, 600. Surely this tells
the value of the poultry farm.
The city and state OF New York con.
sumo about $4s, goo, 600 worth OF poul-
try and eggs every year, and the United
States consumes about $500, 600, 900.
England imports annually SiS, COO, 600
worth of eggs and fowls for domestic
consumption.
$50 it will be readily seen," says one
of the women poultry rpisers, that
poultry pays. 1t can be begun on a
small plan, with ordinary barnyard
fowls. As the stock increases and the
business grows n higher grade of poul.
try should be bought and the best posi-
bic care should be taken of each feath-
cred inmate of the barnyard. While a
good breed of chickens is always desira-
BILE, the quality of the eggs depends
chiefly upon the food of the fowls.
white Minorcas and white Plym-
ouths are both excellent varieties, and
their eggs are delicious if the chickens
are well fed.
