Eggs In Winter.

The whole problem of winter feeding
for eggs can be expressed in one short
sentence-turn winter into summer.
This is easy to say, but very hard to
accomplish, and the best we can do is
to supply some of the conditions which
exist in summer.
The first essential is warmth, but it
must not be supplied by artificial heat,
as this makes the fowls tender and sus-
ceptible to colds, but by warm houses,
to keep out wind and frost and con-
serve the natural heat OF the birds.
Dryness is next to be considered, and
this is best brought about by keeping
the house clean and the floor well lit
tered with straw and some absorbent
material like chaff. Also ventilate a
little by the windows every mild day
by opening them a little, according to
the weather. This will carry out mois-
ture, purify the air and keep the fowls
accustomed to the outdoor tempera-
ture, so they will not be affected so
much by extremely cold spells.-H. ].

Drafts and Roup.

Allowing birds their liberty will
make them healthier, more vigorous
and will be beneficial in every way.
They should not be confined at any
time in the year when the weather will
permit Of their living outside Many
Of US have no doubt put off making
necessary repairs to buildings. One
Or two cracks in the side of a house or
broken window may give the cold
winds a chance to start a cold which
will develop into roup and exterminate
the flock. If any Of the birds are af-
fected in this manner, they should be
separated from the well ones and treat
ed for the trouble.-Thomas f. Rigg
in American Poultry Journal.

Cleanliness In Poultry Houses,

do well provided they receive proper
care. Note the conditions which sur
round fowls with free range. They
have an abundance Of green food, more

The Holland Submarine Boat

All of our readers are familiar with
the Holland submarine boat, with which
it is possible to go about completely
under water. If the enemy have a big
warship lying in a strongly fortified
harbor the boat can be submerged and
make it's way to the ship, place power
full explosive under it, and blow it to
pieces without appearing above water
While this boat secretly destroys ships
OF the enemy, Hostetter's Stomach Bit
tiers likewise attacks and overcomes dan
gerous diseases. A few doses will give
relief in any stomach, liver or blood dis.
order. The bitters not only cure the
sick, but prevent the well from becoming
sick. 1t should be taken by all who
need strengthening tonic.

Declares That the Principles sn

BOULDER. Colo. June s.-Before
the graduating class Of the law school
Of the University Of Colorado. the
Hon Moses Hallett. dean Of the Law
faculty and Federal Judge at Denver,
delivered an address In which he cri-
ticised the present attitude OF the
Government with regard to the Philip
pines. closing With these words:
And so Il appears that the powers
Of earth and air are again arrayed
as they have always been arrayed
against the cause of civil liberty. The
spectacle presented Is that Of a ma
ton in rebellion against absolute pow
er and achieving its independence Of
such power BY force of arms: after
ward a government established in
protest against absolute power and
protesting 20 rule only by the con
sent Of the people and according TO
their viii. an autonomous government
which claimed only the right OF self
rule for tne people and disclaimed
authority in other lands and over 9TH
ct people. Such was the United States
OF America at the end of the eigh-
teenth century. One hundred years
later. the same nation and govern
ment. IN total disregard of the prin-
ciple on which Il was established. re
pudiatlng every declaration Of author
ity upon which It came into power,
with shameless peridy takes into its
possession other lands and peoples
with intent to rule them absolutely
and with the power OF the sword.
So feet the works of men,
Back 20 earth again
Ancient and holy things.
Fade like a dreamy
This nation, baptized in the blood
Of freemen a short century back and
dedicated TO the cause OF liberty for
