Lime to Prevent Gapes.

The best preventive for gapes is to
pillow or spade the ground intended for
young chicks, as soon as the frost is
gone, and then scatter air-slacked lime
literally over the surface. Gapes gen.
orally come from the soil, and as lime
destroys any eggs or other sources of
cape worms, the chicks will escape
Salt may also be added in small GUAM
titles. Lime is cheap, and it is better
to use it on the ground than to work
trying to, save the chicks and lose q
large number. The ground should be
lined as early as possible. Lime is also
a preventive Of roup. To get rid of
filth is to avoid disease in the f1ocks.
for when disease appears the germs are
retained in the ground. For that rea-
son every location occupied by poultry
should be occasionally spaded or
plowed. When performing such work,
first scatter air-slacked lime over the
surface, and turn under the top soil,
following by another application of
lime on the surface. The lime causes
chemical action in the soil which
quickly destroys the filth by changing
It's composition.

The objections so vigorously put in
several cities to such plays as "The
Degenerates" ''Zaza' and "Sapho," and
the absolute ban put upon them IN
many others, has revived the old con-
troversy as to whether newspaper de-
nunciation, or even public prohibition,
does not act as a mere advertisement
and consequently do more harm than
good. Those who hold to the former
opinion point to the well-known fact
that mere mention of certain immoral
features in play or book attracts
many readers or theater-gOers. This
has been shown by the number Of thou;
sands OF Daudet's salacious story sold
since the prosecution Of Miss Neither,
sole in New York for acting it upon the
stage. On the other hand, it may be
said that the object Of such newspaper
denunciation or municipal prosecution
is not the protection Of the class Of
prurient-minded people who would be
led by such criticism to see the book OF
play. These are people whose moral
standards have already been wrecked
and fixed in the wrong direction. What
such criticism does do is to place a
ban upon book or play, and thereby
prevent parents from allowing imma,
ture sons and daughters to read the
book or see the play. This stigma also
makes the play or book unpopular with
the people whose moral standards
would not be shocked by it, and they
are therefore more careful about being
seen at the play or to talk about hav.
ing read the book. Thus, in time, even
class which no immoral play or book
could seriously harm, from the fact
that their standards are already so low,
are brought into line against such dis:
regard of the conventional, at least as
is shown by the immoral playwright
or novelist These considerations show
that balance is in favor of press and
pulpit condemnation as aids in setting
up standard Of morality too often
lowered in the specious plea, so fire,
quently advanced, that condemnation
acts only as an advertisement for vice,

The Nests for Layers.

Many claim that the nest should be
on the ground, but all claims that
hens should have their nests on the
moist ground are but theories, and uil-
supported by facts. What is required
for the hen in winter is a snug, warm
location, while in summer she should
have cool place. The best material
for nest is dry earth on the bottom.
with chopped hay over the earth. Then
hust the nest, hens and eggs with
Persian insect powder, put a small
quantity Of tobacco refuse in the nest.
and clean it out thoroughly, should al,
egg become broken, or the NEST foul.
The broken egg will cause lice quicker
than anything else. But first see that
the hen has no lice, then give her good
eggs, and she will bring off brood If
she has warm and comfortable nest.
The nest should be made movable, 30
as to take outside for cleaning, and it
should never be placed where any of
the fowls can cause it to be filthy or
roost upon it. 1t should never be so
high as to compel effort to reach it, as
the large breeds will prefer to lay on
the ground, rather than to reach a
high nest even when footway is pro-
vided, to say nothing of the fact that
some Of the hens learn to fly over a
fence hv first learning to reach high
nest. Never have the nest in barrel,
or so constructed that the hen must
jump down to it, as broken eggs will
be the consequence, but rather so
place the entrance as to permit her to
walk in upon the eggs The nest should
be placed in a dark position, or 20 ar
ranged that the interior will be some
what dark, which will be partial pro-
lection against gg-eating. For q mock
of one dozen hens, four nests will be
suff1cient.-[Prairie Farmer.

The Imperial Ea gle.

The Imperial eagle, the largest of the
species known, flies to a height Of from
10000 feet to $4,000 feet. 1t is ma
tive of South America, and it's habitat
is among the lofty mountains of that
country. Its power Of flying to high
attitudes is only exceeded by the con-
dor of the Andes, which is said to have
attained the height Of six miles, OF
within one mile of the greatest height
ever attained by balloon. The eagle
sails in the air at heights ranging from
three to five miles, and, when seen to
soar upwards by an observer on the
earth's surface, disappears from sight
In about three minutes.

To that large number Of people who
are lacking in admiration for mere
muscle it must be agreeable to note the
growing strength of expert testimony
on the injurious effects of violent exer-
else. In the first flush of the athletic
movement in this country the natural
impulse was toward muscular develop
ment regardless Of its cost. Every
right minded boy wants to be stronger
than the other boy, the obvious way TO
be strong is to- take exercise, and the
harder the exercise the better. Faith
full adherence to this impulse has given
the country an army of young athletes
with. abnormal knobs of muscles and
impaired hearts and doubtful digestion.
But we live and learn, and we are be-
ginning to learn that there is such a
thing as overexertion of the muscle. and
that in taking exercise, as in all other
things, the rule of moderation is the
rule of reason We are learning from
experience that bodily fatigue is not
a cure for mental fatigue; that violent
straining ON gymnastic apparatus
hurts more than it helps, and that the
real benefits of exercise, which are
health, good digestion, good temper,
good spirits. resistance to disease and
resultant longevity, are acquired by
moderate exertion in the open air, rath-
er than by unnatural eXertion in the
achievement of feats or the breaking
of records. These teachings of COM
mon sense, We may add, are not the
teaching of the 'gridiron" or of the
athletic meeting.

The bird life Of the nation is being

Birds are an indispensable factor In
successful agriculture. They feast
upon crop-destroying bugs, vermin, roy
dents and worms. Aside from thei1
practical contribution to the plans Of
nature, with exquisite beauty and
sweet song, they give in common with
flowers and trees perfectibility to rut
raj life. Caring nothing for the del
struction of the crOp-protectors of thq
farmers or the despoliation of the land
scape, women continue to demand that
nature be robbed FOR their ornamental
ton. The women of the country, the
fashion plate women, are responsible
for the defamation of the birds. They
demand birds for their adOrnment. But
they do not stop with the robbery of
the peoples common property in the
rural districts, but have started a deci-;
mating raid upon the sea gulls, those
winged beauties that relieve the dreary
monotony of the sea coasts. The gulls,
too, have their uses. They perform a
sanitary service that Is most valuable!
The amount of putrid matter that they
consume, preventing it's floating about
