To BE PREPARED-For war is the
surest way for this nation to maintain
peace. That is the opinion of the
wisest statesman. 1t is equally true
that to be prepared for spring is the
best way to avoid the peculiar dangers
of the season. This is lesson mul-
titudes are learning, and at this time,
when the blood is sure to be loaded
with impurities and to be weak and
sluggish, the millions begin to take

enriches and vtalizes the blood, expels

tite, gives strength and energy, and

which are liable to attack weakened
system.

The Only Way to End That Job

The size of the State Capitol job
is beginning to develop. The Legis-
lature is to be asked to appropriate
$4,000, 900 more to complete the
building. But it will not be COM
pleted as long as the leeches who are
farming it now can keep their hands
in the State Treasury. Let the Leg
islature retire the present commits
sioners before it appropriates any
more funds The men have deliber-
ately disregarded the plain letter of
the law, and up to this time should
have nothing more to do with the
completion of the building.

Poultry in Small Enclosures.

Those who live in the suburbs of
cities or villages derive quite a urge
profit from poultry as compared with
the expense, and not only is poultry
raising profit BILE but it is. d pleasure
to many. AS the occupation may be
more interesting when the desire is to
keep them for ornaments ON lawn, or
for beauty of pIumage, it will be more
satisfactory to keep pure breeds of
some kinds. There lis MO better breed
than the White or Brown Leghorn.
They do not sit, and consequently the
difficulty of 'breaking'' the fowls
from the inclination Of raising a
brood is avoided If a few chicks are
desired, however, and the fences are
not over four feet high, such breeds
as the Brahmas or Cochins will be
found useful. 1t is best to keep only
ten hens in a flock, and one cockerel.
If there are two cOckerels the result

respecta BILE. distance from the victor,
and thereby making it somewhat dis
agreeable to- the keeper, as extra
work will be required to see that the
inferior cockerel is fed and wa tered
as the stronger one will not allow him
to partake of anything thrown down
for the hens. In raising chicks little
coops should be used, with small
runs, which may be easily re
moved to new locations when desired
If this is not done the adult fowls will
consume that which may BE- placed
for the little ones. A plentiful supply
of water, with cleanliness, will keep
off disease and promote thrift and
prosperity to the flock.

But when she en- countered the Rodriguez womln she found out her mistake, for her rival was also armed and proved more skill ful in tue use of the knife than she, for she received from her two severe stahs, one in the back and the other in the miN dle of the breast and was taken iu dying condition to the police station.
