One writer says that stale bread
soaked in milk makes good feed for
young poultry. Without doubt bread
and milk so fed are less likely to dis
turb the digestive systems Of the
young fowls than when wet or damp
meal is fed or meal mixed with milk
Some poultry raisers report leg
weakness among the younger fowls.
While little is really known about the
cause OF leg weakness some poultry
raisers assume that 1t is due to too
heavy feeding OF foods that make
growth but do not build up the bones,
such foods being used as are deficient
In lime. In such cases 1t might be
well to feed more bone meal, and to
generally balance up the ration.
No breed however good will prove
profitable unless it is cared for prop
erly. A great many men that do not
know the first principles of proper
feed and care demanded by poultry
buy FLOODED stock and fail in realiz-
ing their hopes. They at once con-
clude that highly bred fowls are not
worth as much as they supposed them
to be. Let no man think that he can
make money out of fowls simply be-
cause they have great possibilities In
Them. 1t takes brains to utilize the
possibilities.
To avoid liver disease In fowls give
tiem plenty of exercise and a we'll
mixed feed. This trouble comes on
when people little expect it and very
often the owner of the flock has not
the remotest idea as to what is taking
of his hens. Perfectly well hens will
suddenly fall over dead, and when
taken up are still warm. Their combs
are generally drained of blood. They
are killed by the sudden emptying OF
all the blood out OF the heart through
the liver. Without doubt germ is at
the bottom of the trouble. but the med
ical investigator has not yet done
much work in that field. The best way
is to feed SO as to avoid the disease.
Most Of our losses from disease could
be avoided If We were provident. After
the disease has established itself
among our birds we look back and say,
IF l had done so and so all this
trouble would have been escaped" A
few men do take these precautions and
escape disasters that are only too
familiar to most of us. But with
most OF our poultry raisers disease is
seldom considered till it is too late
to prevent it. Long immunity makes
us careless, and year by year we are
less on guard. Probably there are few
poultry diseases that could not be pre-
vented. Many of these diseases come
In with the new fowls we purchase
from some farm. We have become
SO careless that We do not think Of put
ting tho now purchase in quarantine
till We are sure that she is free from
the germs that would scatter disease
everywhere. We have 1t in our power
to segregate our fowls more than any
other OF the farm stock, anu in this
lies great power for good in the pre-
vention of disease.

Fisher Girls Travel in style.

season at Yarmouth that the Scotch
fishing girls who have been cleaning,
preparing, curing and packing the fish
were able to accomplish their 500-mile

three comfortable saloons. and at the
rear were four luggage vans, all full

The Sultan's Daily Life.

The sultan of Turkey rises at 8
o'clock every morning and devotes his
days in the seclusion of the Yildix
palace and gardens, to personal atten-
tion to affairs of stare. He Is of slight
figure. A pale brown overcoat conceals
any decorations he might be wearing,
so that the attention of these who see
him on the one day in seven when he
presents himself to the vieT of the
people is not diverted from his pale,
wan and caraworn face, half-covered
by thin brown beard, tinged with
gray, and surmounted by plain red
fez. The sultan has been the means
of establishing $4,000 schools through
out his empire. not only for boys, but
for girls s.also-a striking Departure

insane Seauan.s uunnery,

A remarkable scene was recently
witnessed on board the battleship De-
yastation at Malta. About 10 o'clock
on that night the Inhabitants, as web
as the officers and men of the ships in
harbor, were startled by the firing Of
two guns within about minute Of
each other. The unusual circumstances
led to immediate inquiries being made,
and 1t was found that young seaman
who had only recently Joined the De-
vastatiOn from the cruiser Venus had
developed symptoms Of insanity, and,
forcing open the 6-pounder magazine,
possessed himself Of two charges.
which, fortunately, proved to be blank
ones, maxe his way to the deck and
fired a charge from one of the G.
FOUNDER guns on the port side OF the
ship. He then loaded the gun second
time and discharged it just as several
officers and men rushed up and seized
him. 1t was at once, seen that he was
suffering from mental arrangement
and the medical officer OF the ship
ordered his removal to the Royal Naval
Hospital, where he remains under
treatment. That the poor fellow only
succeeded in removing blank charges
from the magazine was an.exceedinglys
fortunate circumstance. for 1t 50 hap
pened that the gun from which he
fired them was trained directly on the
cruiser Venus, while a number Of
houses on shore were in the imme-
date background. Had the charges
therefore, been full instead of blank,

to Death.
To the Egyptian death was but the
beginning of career of adventures
and experiences compared with which
the most vivid emotions Of this life
were tame. He lived with the fear OF
death before his eyes. Everything
around him reminded him Of tina,
dreadful initiation into tho mysteries
of the tremendous after life for whicn
his present existence was but prep.
aration. His cemeteries were not hid
den away in remote suburbs; his dead
were not covered with mere grassy
mounds, or slab or stone. The whole
land was his graveyard; it's whole art
was of the mortuary. Are there nc
graves in Egypt that thou hast brought
us into the wilderness to die?" asked
the Israelites in derision, and we may
believe that Moses WINGED at the sar-
casm. Egypt is the land of graves, and
the whole energy Of the people that
could be spared from keeping lifo to-
gether was devoted to death. The
mightiest tombs in the world-the
pyramids--were raised upon the deaths
Of multitrdes of toiling slaves. The
hills were honeycombed passages and
galleries, chambers, pits, all painfully
eycavated in honor of the illustrious
dead, and sculptured and painted with
elabora to skill to make them fit habl'
tations for his ghost. Wherever ne
looked the Egyptian beheld prepara-
tons for the great turning point Of
existence. The mason was squaring

New Occupations For Won en-.

New Occupations F0r Wom.e
r What new, odd or untried avenues Of
employment were opened to women
during 1899? Many bright and versa
tile women with the courage of their
convictions have undoubtedly sought
and obtained the means of livelihood.

variety Of queer occupations. Perhaps
no woman in the United States has
stranger occupation than that Of Mrs.
Maud Whiteman, Of Humboldt. Ney.
She shoots wild horses for their skins.
and at times earns about SIS q day at it.
In some Western States wild horses
have Increased so rapidly that they
monopolize the best grazing and fright
en- cattle off the. ranges, so they are
ruthlesslv killed for their hides. Mrs.
Whitemao wears masculine garh when
hunting; when she goes to town she
wears black silk dress and very
feminine plumed leghorn hat. She is
usually accompanied by her father. a
war veteran, in her wild horse chas-
ing. The skins Of the animals shot
are taken off deXterously, dried on sage
bushes and then sold for about 81 each.

The death OF John Nicholas Brown
comes this morning, finding the COM
munity in certain sense, not unpre-
pared. Mr.. Brown was in no sense in
close personal touch with people here;
few. very few know, or have ever seen
him, and yet no man was ever more
indebted TO these same people. Mr..
Brown held himself aloof from the
people. He gave the Public Library
building to the people Of Providence.
In doing this he only walked in the
footsteps OF his splendid mother. for 1t
was this mother who gave the library
building to the college on the hill.
When young Robert Ives was killed by
a cannon ball at Gettysburg our very
hearts were wrung with sorrow, for we
all felt that in the death Of the young
man the people OF the city had lost a
friend; let the same spirit today cover
ms. for Mr.. Brown was just rising to
that clear perception OF the relations OF
things which young Ives so clearly
saw when he started for the field of
battle.
