JAMES MADISON IN YOUTH.
Scotch Schoolmaster Named Donaldson
Gave Him His Start.

Gave Him His Start.
James Madison, fourth president Of
the United States, was born at Port
Conway, Va, March 16, 1851. His ia
Their was a planter in moderate circum-
stances, and James was the eldest of
a family of twelve. The boys first
education was received at a school
kept by a worthy Scotchman, named
Donaldson. His progress was remark
able and encouraged his father to give
his son a college education. Young,
Madison entered Princeton college and
vas graduated in 1872, remaining a
year after to make a study of Hebrew.
On his return home he devoted himself
to teaching his brothers and sisters,
all the time pushing his own studies.
In history and constitutional law he
was especially well versed, and these
requirements served him well in his
public career. Early in 1776 he was
appointed a delegate to the state con-
vention which met in May, at Will
liamsburg. This conventions duty was
to instruct the Virginia delegation to
the continental congress in regard to
the declaration of independence. Three
years later young Madison was a dele
gate to congress, and from that time
he held many important public offices.
In 1909 he was elected president of
the United States. He served during
n of the most critical periods in the
history of the Countrywide the sec
ond war with Great Britain was in
progress. At the close of his second
term as chief executive Madison re-
tired to his estate at Montpelier, Va,
where he peacefully passed the last
twenty years of his life with his be-
loved books and friends. He died there
June %, 1886.

Demand for cavalry Horses.

The horse of this country
are being severely taxed. We have
frequently alluded to the westward
movement to the Orient and the large
numbers going out of sight that way.
Now it is t~elegraphed from Wyoming
that an agent of the Mexican govern
ment came to Cheyenne about two
weeks ago, and since that time has
purchased several carloads of saddle
horses, which have been shipped to the
City of Mexico. The agent will say
nothing as to his real purpose in buy
ing so many horses, but it is a signif-
cant fact that he purchases only the
very best saddle horses and animals
that would readily be accepted by the
United States government for cavalry
service. The prices paid are in some
cases fancy, and the agent seems to
have plenty of money. However that
may be we see in it another indication
of the fact that fine, shapely and &C
tive horses are good property and that
we ought to be making more of them
in this country about these days. Amid
other expansions of good products let
those who know how to produce good
horses, and have conditions %suiting
such production, give attention to this
~matter.-Pacifc Rural Press.

The Relation of Feed to tl,e Flavor of
Eggs.

Eggs.
Farmers Bulletin 122, U. s.. Depart
ment of Agriculture: Housewives
who Use many eggs and all who habit
ually eat them boiled know that there
is much difference in the flavor OF even
those which are ~undeniably fresh.
There is a very general belief that the
flavor is influenced by the feed which
the hens receive and that materials
possessing strong havors, like onions,
~turnips, etc., impart an injurious ma
vor to the eggs. The truth of this be-
lief was shown by recent experiments
at the North Carolina Station.
Chopped wild onion tops and bulbs
were fed to hens and the length OF
time before there was a change in the
flavor Of the eggs was noted, as well as
the length OF time which must elapse
after onion feeding was discontinued
before the very Objectionable flavor
would disappear. At the beginning OF
the trial a half I'M of chopped
onion tops per head daily was fed TO
IL hens Of different breeds. Repeated
tests did not show n onion flavor In
the eggs until the fifteenth day, Wnen
it was distinctly noticeable. Inc
amount of onion fed was doubled lot
four days and then discontinued. me
eggs laid while the larger amount OF
onion was fed were so strongly ma
vored that they could not be USED.
After discontinuing the feeding OF
onions the flavor became less notice
able and in a week the eggs were OF
normal flavor. The main point brought
out by the tests was that flavor can
be fed into the eggs. Therefore 1t ap-
pears that to insure finely favored
eggs it is necessary to restrict runs SO
that no considerable mount OF FOOD
which will produce badly favored eggs
can be obtained.
Some years ago the New York Cor
nell station, in studying the effect OF
heterogeneous VS.. carbonaceous foe LOT
poultry, reported observations on the
effect of the different rations on the
flavor of the eggs. One lot OF fowls
was fed a mixture of wheat shorts, cot
ton-seed meal and skim milk; another
lot cracked corn and corn ~dough.The
former ration contained much more
nitrogen than the latter. The hens
fed corn laid fewer eggs than those fed
the heterogeneous ration, but the eggs
were larger. The eggs produced by
the heterogeneous ration were OF a dis
agreeable flavor and smell, had a
small yolk, and did not keep we'll. The
flesh of the poultry fed this ration
however, was darker, more %succulent
and tender than that of the fowls fed
the carbonaceous ration.
These experiments also show thai
the food has a marked effect on the
flavor of eggs. The general experience
Of poultry raisers is that heterogeneous
rations are more profitable to fee(
since they produce a larger number o
eggs. In view of the fact that such
ration, If too rich in nitrogen, ma.
produce eggs Of unpleasant flavor, i
would seem advisable to note the eff
feet of any ration fed upon flavor, AM
modify it, if the eggs are found to b
inferior in this respect.-C. F. Lang
worthy.

Prince Henry, consort of the Queen
of Holland, is extremely busy at the
present moment getting together a
perfect armory of sporting guns, most
ly Of English manufacture, in view
of his approaching trip to the island of
Java, and to the remainder OF the
Dutch East Indies. He sails early in
the month of June; that is to say, just
about the time the honeymoon may
reasonably be expected to have begun
to wane, and will remain absent until
the end of the year.

Boomers for Housework.

A recent advocate of dress reform
for women says that her advice, if fol-
lowed, will rob house cleaning of much
Of it's horror. Boomers and blouses
are, she contends, the only rational
dress for a woman who intends to
tackle the housekeeping problem.
Long swishing petticoats and feminine
fripperies have their time and place;
but if a woman wants to climb ladders
and wrestle with carpets and WELD
broom and dust cloth effectively, let
her take off her corsets and skirts and
don a bloomer costume of washable
material. Denim, says the oracle,
makes serviceable and effective bloom
ers; and, if this material is too heavy
for a blouse, a thinner material, har-
monizing in color with the denim, may
be used. The blouse should be finished
with a soft rolling collar, which will
leave the neck muscles free. 1t is adj
visable, too, to end the sleeves just be-
low the elbow with a turned-back cuff,
so that the wrists shall be left free.
This is also recommended as a prac-
tical morning costume for servants
obliged to do rough work. One can
fancy a maid or mistress, trim, slen-
der and attractive, who would be a joy
both to herself and to the beholder,
in the proposed working attire.-New
York Sun.

Scores Of old barns in Ohio have
floors and managers of black walnut,
put in fifty or seventy-five years ago,
when the chief endeavor of the pioneer
was to clear the dense forests for crops.
So popular is black walnut furniture
abroad that English and French agen-
buy even old barn timbers and fence
rails. One of the few walnut groves
left in Ohio was sold last month for
export as lumber. The largest tree,
eight feet in diameter at the stump,
brought twelve hundred dollars.

A remarkable contrast to the map
in precious stones which lately aston
ished Paris, is the railway map on
tiles, put up at York Station, in Eng

is made of white tiles, the lines being
marked in black and burnt sienna.
1t is about six feet square, and each
tile is eight inches square. The COM
pany intends to have similar maps at
all important stations on its W sys-

How to Clean Cans.

George H. Blake, in his book on
Common Sense Ideas for Dairymen,"
says:
THE ans, pals, dippers, in short,
every utensil that m in contact
with the milk, should not only be
thoroughly washed, but they should be
immersed in boiling water for several
minutes. The seams and joints in all
utensils should be filed with solder
plumb with the surface Of the vessel,
as these small receptacles form excel
lent breeding places for all kinds of
germs. To many these precautions
may seem unnecessary, but they are
not, for analysis shows that milk put
into cans that have been treated in
this manner, contains a much smaller
number of bacteria per cubic cent?
meter than does milk from the same
lot put into cans washed in the u
way; and it will remain sweet from six
to twelve hours longer. In many
communities the same cans n which
milk is taken to the factory are used
in carrying home sour milk and whey.
While this is a custom that should not
be encouraged, it cannot always be
avoided; but when practiced 1T is
doubly important that the cans should
be thoroughly boiled before they are
again used for milk. Milk is often
taken to the factory in cans covered
with a green coating inside of the neck
and along the seams; such cans are
alive with destructive organisms; and
to have them in such condition shows
objectionable neglect. Milk put into
such a receptacle for a single moment;
besides, it's mixing at the factory with
other milk is sure to infect the whole
lot, often resulting in much inconven-
fence and pecuniary loss. Where the
cans are taken home empty it is ad-
visable to wash them at the factory,
where steam can be used in s~teriliz-
ing them. 1t should not be necessary
for the creamery management to en-
ploy an extra man to do this work; a
wash box and steam jet can be pro-
vided, and the farmer be permitted to
wash his w cans. When this is
done the cans should be closely Gov
cred with a canvas to keep out the
dirt while returning from the factory

the red mites are multiplying with
great rapidity. They must be looked
out for or losses are certain. Especial
ly should the sitting hens be looked
after, as it will not take more than a
week for red mites to suck a sitting
hen to death after they once find the
way to the nest. Every year numerous
sitting hens are lost from this cause.
1t seems to be the experience of all
breeders of all kinds of poultry that
the eggs from young fowls do not pro-
luce so strong chicks as do the eggs
from more mature birds. Therefore it
is best to select for breeders birds that
are at least in their second year of life.
A continuation Of this kind Of selec-
ton will most certainly give a harder
race, which is needed in about every
breed we raise.
A good many farmers permit their
chicks to look out for themselves after
the first few weeks, where there is
good farm range. They say it does the
chicks good to have to hunt their food.
Doubtless this is true. But no matter
how well such chicks do or how
healthy they become, they will not de-
velop into early winter layers without
extra attention. The ordinary food a
fowl can pick up will develop the layer
about February. But If meat meal be
fed daily in considerable quantities,
the development will be SO hurried
that the layer will be mature enough
to drop eggs by November-which
means a big difference in the money
yield Of the fowl the first year.
The cooperative creamery has this
