Mrs. Platt. our enthusiastic national vice
president, in her address on The Tn
limited Club given at the biennial and
also at the Trans-Mississippi Congress of
Women's clubs. spoke very disparagingly
of those clubs that studied the problems
Of the fifteenth century, while those of the
nineteenth stared them in the face. Pro
fessor Howard Caldwell. professor Of
American history in the University of Ne
braska thus answers Mrs. Plat: Both
English and American history are based
upon precedent. The present is nothing
but accumulations of the past Every
institution Of today has its roots planted
in the past, and we must know its soil TO
know its fruits. A knowledge of past
problems helps Us 70 solve similar ones of
the present. To think only Of the present
is a narrow view, for that may necessitate
that the present generation create some-
thing that has already developed in the
past"

ANOTHER R4ILROAD.

Pine Bluff seemingly has pros
poets for another railroad. The
proposed road is from Pine Bluff to
Star City. down and through the
rich bottom laeds Of Bayou Barthol
Bmew. Such d railroad would be
worth considerable to the trade Of
this city. The promoters of the en-
te.prise ask no bonus; they simply
ask that Pine Blufieas subscribe
for $50, 600 Of the proposed new cor
poraJion's bonds. Its estimated that
the raj road company would be worth
s., 600 a month alone to Pine Bluff,
to say nothing Of the increased vol
ame OF trade that would be brought
10 our city. Tue proposition of the
promoters of the enterprise should
be seriously considered by the bust
ness community. The more rail.
roads the better

Poultry ote&

Rapid eating is one of the worst
evils in young fowls. Wet meal is
thrown to them, they gorge them
selves until surfeited and then die
Mark the chickens each year so
that you can know their age Kill or
sell them after the third year.
The food trough that is kept full
is the lazy mans method of feeding
poultry. 1t is not only expensive but
unhealthfu1.
When feeding grain to hens scatter
it. This not only keeps the greedy hens
from getting more than their share,
but compels ali to hunt for it
Turkeys are capable of rapid di-
gestion and are apparently always
hungry. If allowed to forage they can
be kept at small expense; if confined
they will eat more than hens.
One advantage of the woven wire
fence is that it neeG not be so high as
fences made Of other material For
some reasons fowls will rarely try to
fly over it.

Raise One Breed Only.

The trouble with most farmers who
follow the advice to stick to one breed
is that they fall into the habit of per-
hitting too close in-breeding. Beyond
all question the man who sticks to one
breed of cows, swine, sheep or poultry.
until he thoroughly understand the re-
quirements and peculiarities, is the
one who makes money. This state
ment, however, needs the proyiso that
he takes proper precautions regarding
the introduction of new blood suffici-
entity often to prevent running out of
the race. The new blood may be either
male or female, usually the former is
more convenient, but it must not be
akin nor must it have a faint of anv
other breed, but be as pure, or better
still, more pure than the flock or herd
to which he is introduced A good boar
at SO, or a high bred cock at $40, will
build up the stock to degree that will
render the inyestmet for new blood
very cheap. Thoroughbreds are the
element of success a farmer can hardly
afford to overlook.

TO Disnlace the HatpIn.

Although the hatpfn in use at pres
ent answers its purpose fairly well,
there is a demand for something lit
tie more convenient and one which
will not have the faculty of becoming
mfslaid so readily. Another drawback
in the use of the present type of hat
pin is that it very soon causes insight
II marks in the frame or trimming of
the hat. This is true of fabrics of all
kinds and colors, but its work is par
ticularly disastrous on those of the
more delicate tints. There bus recent
~ been invented a little affair which
is intended to supersede the hatpin en-,
tirely, and which will also be found
just where and when it is wanted. 1t

RAISING SQUADS.
Advice for Selection Of the Birds and Di-
rections for their Manipulation.

Advice for Selection Of the Birds and Di-
rections for their Manipulation.
The best pigeons for raising SQUADS
are a cross between the runt and the
common pigeon. When these are not
readily obtainable the next best are
the common ones. The white ones are
preferable to the blue, for the reason
that the squads bring higher prices
usually, but otherwise one is as good
as another. Squads should bekilled Just
before they are ready to leave the nest.
At this time they are fatter, heavier
and tenderer than at any other. They
are killed by bleeding in the mouth,
and usually sold uDpieked and IN
drawn.
As the birds pair, it is necessary to
have as many males as females in
order to prevent constant quarreling,
and each pair of birds should have a
separate nesting place.
One of the best ways of providing
for this is to put UP row of shelves
and divide them into apartments not
less than a foot square Half of the
open space should be covered with a
board to shelter the nests from the
light
A setting of eggs will be laid and
Matched every month except February.
This is the pairing month.
The best plan of feeding is in
troughs or hoppers, always feeding
literally. Gray peas, wheat and corn
make good ration, cracking the corn
always; corn alone is toe fattening.
Provide plenty Of pure fresh water
where they can help themselves.
