The Presidents Policy Defined by

The words spoken by President Nc
Kinley the other day in regard TO his
Philippine policy were definite and GER

mistakable. Ii was an argument. but
il was also challenge. The president
assumed the offensive and handled his
anti-imperialistic detractors without
gloves.
Speaking of the soldiers who had the
privilege of being mustered out in April
and who preferred TO remain in the
service, the president said:

And what the cause for which these
brave and patriotic men fought and suf-
fored and fell? The answer is found in
the following pregnant and pointed
sentences:

RAPE AS GREEN FOOD.

without Delay.

Rape Is an excellent green food for
chickens and fills long felt want of
poultrymen. Ii can be sown in early
spring or any time later up TO the mid
die of August, and furnish an abund-
ance OF food, writes c. Il. Roberts in the
American Poultry Journal. Last year
sowed small patch just 10 see what
kind of a plant it was. Ii grows from
IS TO 20 inches in height. The leaves
in color and shape resemble the cab
bage leaf very much. IL can be sown
broadcast, or in drills 30 inches apart,
and be cultivated. The ground should
and the seed covered about the same
as turnip seed. IL grows very fast, and
can be cut and fed TO chickens or let
them go TO IL at will and help them
selves. When they are TO eat in this
way / should prefer TO have IL sown
in drills, as they can walk between the
rows, and are not so apt TO trample
and break il down as is the case when
sown broadcast; but when IL is to be cut
and fed it is just as good to sow it broad
cast as any. Last year my young chick
ems commenced 10 eat my cabbages,
but when the rape was up four or fve
inches high they left the cabbage and
commenced on the rape, and any one
knows that when chickens leave cab
bage patch to eat something else 1t
must be something they like better
than cabbages. l had never had chick
ems do better and grow faster than they
did while they were helping themselves
to rape. i think that every one who
raises chickens should try small
patch. 1t will cost but few cents to
give this plant trial, as five pounds is
enough to sow an acre broadcast, and
one to two pounds il sown in drills. l
have no rape seed to sell.

"If there ever was time In the his

show his love of country it, is AT this

GREEN CUT BONE
An Economical and Excellent Food
for Laying Hens, Both Win
ter and summer.

Green bone is rich in phosphate of
lime, and this fact alone should prove
its value as food for laying hens, both
winter and summer. Fowls understand
its value to themselves, as is shown by
the manner in which they will leave any
food to get the green bone, says the
American Farmer. Further, it is one
of the cheapest foods, for usually the
bones of various sizes and shapes, with
more or less meat attached TO them, can
be bought for few cents, and the
modern bone-cutter brushes and cuts
them fine in a few moments. Frequent
ly there is sufficient meat on these
bones to furnish all that is needed in
that line, and thus another saving is eff
fected, for the meat bought alone
would cost much more than the meaty
bones. Still again, green bone, especial
ly when meat is attached thereto, fed
within reason. reduces the need of feed
ing the usual quantity of grain, thus
saving more money.
The main thing to avoid in feeding
cut bone is TO see that the bones are
green-that is, fresh and free from
faint. In some localities where butch
ers have considerable demand for fresh
bones, they make two grades of them,
one from meat freshly cut up and he
other from older meat, and frequently
tainted with the entrails OF fowls and
other refuse thrown into the box. Don't
buy this stuff at any price, nor take it
as a gift. Feed only fresh bone, and it
will pay every time.
