The United Oil company is op-
Grating four strings of tools which
are going toward China, some of
them being very deep and oil may
be encountered at any time, The
company is not quite as active at
this time as they were last year
when five strings of tools were GO
ing nearly all the time. All it's
pumping wells are producing
nicely and there seems to be no

The American Youths Love of Action.

To the American youth the greatest
attraction is life of action, and to him
the comparatively stagnant life which,
in these modern times, the army officer
or the university professor must live is
not especially attractive. The very es-
sence of the American is his love of
action and his dissatisfaction in a life
of stagnation. A life of action may take
a score of different directions to the
Young man in our republic who has
high ambitions and high intelligence; it
is the demands of commerce and indus
try which offer the greatest attractive
ness. These promise to give the great
est power and honor, and these lines
of industry have in recent years been
drawing toward themselves more and
more the whole energies of the best
minds. the most ambitious natures of
the youth of the American republic. As
a result the bright American youths are
drawn to the lines of intense activity in
volved in the general term Industrial.
It is ihese active men engaged in af-
fairs that advance the world and make
a rising generation. Do we not see

Feeding Ha1f-Grown Chicks.

The usual custom Of turning young
chicks on to the range to shift for them
selves as soon as they are large enough
to leave their mother is not conducive
to the best results. For chicks that
are to form the layers in the late fail
and winter this plan will do very well
if they are granted once day. Chicks
that are to go to market as soon as
they are large enough will need lib.
eral quantity of cracked corn and
wheat placed in a trough where they
can get at it easily; do this every other
day. The chicks will not over-eat for
they will get enough exercise on the
range to counterbalance any heavy
feeding. The grains named, together
with what the chicks will pick up on
the range, will constitute nearly per.
feet balanced ration.

Filling the Silo.

It used to be thought that rapid fill
ing of the silo was all important. It
must be filled so fast that no layer of
fodder could wilt before it was covered
with another, and thus the fermenta-
ton beginning at the bottom must
gradually work up through the mass
until it reached the surface, where oXi-
flization or rotting began, which again
worked downward until the decayed
matter on the surface prevented any
more air from going down. Naturally
we accepted this idea, as it was sent
Int by learned chemists and scientific
men, but opinions have changed since
those days in the light of positive facts.
The farmers who have not been able
to fill their silos as rapidly as they
wished to, or have been obliged to
wait for help for weather or for some
later field to attain maturity, or those
who from lack of facilities for rapid
handling have been obliged to fill slow
", have found that their ensilage was

Cream Of Asparagus.

There are two ways of utilizing the
pulp of the stalks. When there is
pint or more of it, heat it with white
sauce or cream, and serve it on toast
as a vegetable; when the quantity is
small, make it into a soup as follows
For a quart of soup, put in thick
saucepan over the fire heaping tea
spoonful each of flour and good butter,
and stir them until they are smoothly
blended; then gradually stir in pint
each of hot water and milk, about II
cupful of asparagus pulp, and a palata-
bic seasoning of salt, white pepper,
and a very little grated nutmeg; stir
the soup until it boils and is perfectly
smooth, and then serve it hot. The
pulp is made by boiling the tough ends
of asparagus stalks until the outer fiber
softens enough to permit the pulp tor

RESPECTED HIS OWN RULE.
Why Andrew Carnegie Refused a Position
to His Friend.


The conspicuous part played by the
Carnegie Steel Company in recent years
calls attention to an important condition
that has helped to bring about the Won
derful development of this concern.
The company is probably the only one
in the world in which influence and
pull are not permitted to affect pro-
motions. A hard and fast rule is laid
down that all promotions must came
from the ranks, and that everybody in
the employ of the concern must stand on
his own merits. Neither relationship
nor any other claim is recognized, either
in obtaining employment or in getting
ahead after place is won. That this
is not mere idle talk was forcibly
brought home the other day to Pitts
burgher, says the Saturday, EVening
Post.
This man. after successful business
career, recently met with a series of
commercial reverses that left him prac-
tically without a dollar in the world.
There was, however, nothing to reflect
on his probity or on his business acu-
men, his misfortunes being due to cir
cumstances over which he had no con-
troll. AS he was in excellent health, look
ing and feeling at least ten years
younger than he really was, the disaster
did not break his spirit. He determined
that he would begin all over again, and
make a new fortune. AS preliminary,
he went to Andrew Carnegie, whom
he al III fa
having been with him a member of the
Dubuque Club and of other organiza
tons. He explained his situation and
asked for a position in the works COM
mensurate with his position and train
ing.
Il cannot give you a position" said
Mr.. Carnegie.
you cannot-why ?"
Simply because haven't the power"
''But you are the chief owner
eyes, I am, but it is rule in the
Carnegie Company that everybody must
begin at the bottom and work up, and
neither | nor anyone else can change
that rule If l should give an order
to put you in such a position as you
ask, even if there was a vacancy, no
attention would be paid to it-not the
slightest In fact if I should give you
any sort of letter of recommendation
it would only do you more harm than
good In the first place, it would not
get you place such as you ask, and
in the second place, if you did succeed
in getting in at the bottom, the very
fact that had recommended you would
make everybody in the establishment
watch you like hawk. That is the
way Influence works in our concern"
The Pittsburgher went away and got
work elsewhere, but he regrets that he
did not start earlier in life in an enter
prise where merit is so absolutely the
test. Whether the same rule will be
maintained under the great consolida-
ton is a question that interests many
people.
