BELGIAN HARE CRAZE.
Long After 1t Has Petered Ont the
Poultry Farmer VIII still Do
Profitable Business.

The Belgian hare craze will be a
benefit to poultrymen who have the
grace to resist temptation and stick
to an established and recognized in
dustry for whose product there is a
consumers market, because it will re-
lieve them from the competition of a
great deal of energy and capital, some
part of which would certainly have
been devoted to the poultry business.
Whatever may finally come of the
Belgian hare business, at present it is
wholly speculative, the only estab-
hshed market for hare stock being
with those who wish to raise hares to
sell to other people. 1t will be found
that this is by no means an endless
chain," but a chain which will come
to an abrupt end some day, after
which the only market will be for the
meat and the pelts. The public is not
educated to the consumption of hare
meat, and there is no more difficult
task than to educate the community
to the consumption of a new article
of food. The housewife uses eggs
every day, and there is a constant de-
mand in every family for table fowl.
in the various stages of their growth
If anyone enjoys raising Belgian
hares and follows the business for the
pleasure there is in it, that settles
the matter so far as he is concerned.
and his profit is the fun he has. But
as a matter of business, common
sense should teach anyone that it is
foolish to abandon an industry for
whose product there is an established
demand to engage in one for which
the market must be created.-San

The Fertility of Eggs.

There is a foolish notion prevailing
among some fowl breeders that eggs
which have been shipped a distance
should rest a day or two before being
placed in an incubator, says the Fam
ciers' Gazette. AS soon as the hens
are ready to sit. or the incubator
ready for work, place the eggs under
or in at once; they will rest as COM
fortably in either place as elsewhere,
in fact, better; for everybody knows
that the fresher the eggs the more
chicks they will yield, and the health
Ter the chicks. The germs floats to
the top of the egg, and will find its
way there in a half minute, at the
most, if revolved 100 times an hour;
and the yolk will find its place just
as soon if it has not been broken, in
which case it might rest n month or
wear and never hatch.

QUITTING weeds After Rains.

When cutting weeds. especially after
a very wet time, care should be taken
not to cut off the tops, but to uproot
them with as little destruction of
leaves possible. When the roots are
shaken so as to loosen all the moist
earth attached to them they will
wither very fast, especially if the top
is left attached to them. The top be-
gins to dry, then it calls on the root
for more moisture, and both root and
top dry up together. 1t is the practice
of the best gardeners to shorten in
the tops of valuable plants when they
are setting them out. To prepare a
weed the same way is to make it almost
certain to grow Observation-Disclosures

Honey Plants ON the Farm

On many farms on which bees are
not kept, there is splendid supply
of honey plants. Among these are al
falfa, alsike. apples, asparagus, bean,
blackberry, boneset, box elder, buck
thorn, buckwheat, burdock, catslpa,
catnip, cherry, red and white clever,
crimson clover, corn, currant, dande-
lion, golden rod, gooseberry, grape,
honey locust, melon, milk wheat,
mustard and many others, some of
which are not used for any purpose,
and why not let the honey bee get
value out of them. There is a choice
in these, of course, and some of them
are not of high order as honey plants,
but they are given to show that ID
would indeed be a barren farm ON
which bee could not make honey

Southern Women Assemble in
 he Cradle oi the ContederaCy"

While Montgomery is today the political Mecca of the State, it is also the scene of a gathering that is a sequel to the most memorable events in political warfare that American history will ever record. In the
 assembling of the United Daughters of the
 Confectionery in historic Montgomery there
 is such significance attached to the occasion
 that makes the seventh annual convention
 of the Daughters a theme to interest re- united. country. It would have well been
 worth the journey to Montgomery to have
 witnessed the assembly of the Daughters
 there yesterday, when the convention was called to order in the capital in the hall
 where the Confederate congress declared the right of secession. It was here that Jeff
 ferson Davis was elected President of the Confederate States, and the balcony was
 pointed out to hundreds of Daughters yes
 terday as the scene of his inauguration.
 At the famous old Exchange Hotel, room
 22, so long distinguished in historic annals by reason of It's having once been occupied by the President and used for the first
 meeting of the Confederate council, the
 Montgomery women have secured for their
 bureau of information during the conven-
 ton. The Exchange is the headquarters for the Daughters and the knowledge of associations with the past that they are having today will lend an added glory to
 the scene it's historic apartments are pre-
 senting just now. Indeed there could not be an occasion in these latter days fraught
 with the keen significance that gilds with
 undying glory the assembling of Southern
 women in the cradle of the Confectionery. In the Jefferson Davis house a reception was held last evening, while in the after noon from to oc clock the visiting Wom- en were the guests of Mrs. John A. Kirk patrick, State president of the Alabama division. The social side of the conVen- ton is one of great brillianey, and Mont gomery women have left nothing undone to make the convention complete in point of Southern hospitality and social bril- lancy.
 The business discussions vii take up the topics that have been previously consid- cred, notably the reforms that have been proposed affecting school books. Another matter in which there is much interest
 will be the discussion regulating the purch- asing of the first White House of the | Confederacy' as a museum for Confeder- l ate relics. It is upon this subject that the Montgomery chapters have disagreed to l the extent that resulted in feuds and fac | tions, each being led by brilliant women

Mrs. D,xon's Charming Reception.

Tuesday afternoon from to o'clock the beautiful home of Mrs. F. ". Dixon on the North Highlands the mecca for the ladies of the First Presbyterian church. Mrs. Dixon is the newly-elected president of the Ladies Aid Society, and the oc- casion was welcoming social to the ladies of the church and congregation.
 It was a season of delightful social con- course, during which suggestive and help ful addresses were made by Mesdames Dixon, Huneley, Going, Taliaferro and Montgomery, each urging that the coming years work be emphasized by activity along social lines, now that the burden of debt had been lifted from the church. De- leious refreshments were served.
 In the evening the officers of the church and their wives were present to enjoy the hospitality of this charming hostess and her husband. Matters of interest to the churchs welfare were discussed in an n- formal way. The pleasure of the evening was greatly enhanced by instrumental music furnished by Mrs. A. c. Howze.
