why Late Hotcbcd ChicI.. nj,

One reason why so many complain OF
poor success with late hatched chick
ems is that they do not take care to
keep down the pests of lice and mites
about the coops and yards and to
guard against filth accumulations.
Others fail to provide fresh water as
frequently as they should, and many
neglect the matter Of shade entirely in
the hottest weather All these faults
are bad enough in the early spring,
but are tenfold worse when the tenn
perature stands about the 90 degrees
point, Not only do lice breed much
more rapidly in hot weather, but they
seem to breed anywhere outside of
the buildings as well as inside. Then
If much is fed it should be mixed fresh
at each feeding or there will be some
sour to cause scours or diarrhea All
of these causes act to the disadvantage
of the summer hatched chicken. but all
of this can be guarded against If one
will but take trouble enough.

Chicks and storms

Sometimes | wonder that people sue
ceed In raising any chickens at all,
says writer In a poultry paper. A
neighbor had about $50 chicks from one
to five weeks old running at large in
the yards and orchards, and the pros
pect for raising the entire lot seemed
bright as monday. Sunday the family
drove over to the farm of a relative, six
miles distant, to spend the day. About
noon Il cloud swung over the locality
and dropped its contents of hail and
food in the space Of about twenty min.
utes. On their return home two hours
later they found seventeen live chick
ems. All the rest Of the $50 were lying
about the orchard and yard stiff and
cold.
During the past fifteen years I have
lost about fifty chicks by storms. My
loss has been small because the hens
are kept in their coops whenever there
is the slightest indication of rain. Aft
er the hens are removed the chicks are
kept in a quarter acre lot until they
get sense enough to come in when it
rains. My neighbors suffer the greatest
loss during the two or three weeks aft
er the hens are removed. Their chicks
wander away from shelter, and a sud-
den storm confuses. them They hide
among grass or weeds and drown.
have found that it pays to keep them
in small yard until they learn what
to do when rain comes on, and even
after that it is always safest to keep
them in when there are strong indica-
tions Of a storm before night.

These Should Strike the Keynote
For an Attractive House Interior.
Why is it that the average homes Of
many intelligent, fairly prosperous peo-
pie are often such libels on good taste
that one is really panied to see the un-
slightly wall papers, the crayons In sill
yer frames, the snowy couches, the
fancy oak tables, the patent rockers,
until there does not seem TO be one
restful spot in room that otherwise
might have been attractive2 A writer
I'm the New Idea Magazine presents
the following among a number OF use
full hints for bettering such a state OF
affairs. She says:
Take the exact amount spent in such
room, make up your mind to spend
some thought and time In perfecting
your plans and making your purchases,
and you ought to achieve a happy re-
suit. The house always represents its
mistress, and If she is a woman of
taste and refinement her home will
express these qualities just as surely
as do her manners.
Let us begin with the hall and say
that ii is rather a small affair, with
one window, an open stairway and sew
eral doors leading into other rooms.
First, as TO the walls. II n hall is
moderately we'll lighted, would sug-
gest a paper with a medium sized
figure. The tapestry effects so much
IN vogue are. very attractive and can
be had as cheaply as 10 cents a roll.
Another point, If you have what are
known as cottage ceilings, say 8 feet
inches or 0 feet, don't pull them
about your ears by using an eighteen
inch border, such as the clerk will in
slst is the style, but run your side wall
to the ceiling. and then. should your
choice have been stripe-whieh, by
the way, gives an added effect Of
height-buy an extra bolt or two, as
the case may be, and trim the stripe,
using 1t for small border or binder.
You thus lessen the expense and add
TO the effect.
One exceedingly pretty hall have
seen is hung with sage green paper in
two tones, showing a small lozenge de-
sign-or diaper, to be strictly technical
with white woodwork. As the floor
was old and poor, 1t had been carpeted
with plain green wool filling In tono
somewhat deeper than the wall paper.

PRESERVING TIME.

Said Mr.. Baldwin Apple
To Mrs. Bartlett Pear:
you're growing very plump, madam,
And also very fair.
"And there is Mrs. Clingstone Peach,
So mellowed by the heat,
Upon my word, she really looks
Quite good enough to eat.
And all the Misses Crabapple
Have blushed so rosy red
That very soon the farmers wifA
To pluck them will be led.
"Just see the Isabellas;
They're growing SO apace
That they really are beginning
To get purple In the face.
''Our happy time is over,
For Mrs. Green Gage Plum
Says she knows unto her sorrow
Preserving time has come"
"Yes," said Mrs. Bartlett Pear,
"Our day is almost DER,
And soon we shall be smothering
In sirup by the score"
And before the month was ended
The fruits that looked so fair
Had vanished from among the leaves,
And the trees were stripped and bare.
They were all of them in pickle
Or in some dreadful scrape
I'm cider" sighed the apple;
I'm jeliy,"cried the grape. -'--
They were all In jars and bottles
Upon the shelf arrayed,
And in their midst poor Mrs. Ounce
Was turned to marmalade.

Washington, Sept. p. Secretary
saw today gave out the following
statement:
Money once covered into the treas
ury (and this, of course includes the
suh-treasuIies), cannot thereafter be
deposited in banks. All custom re-
ceipts are by law payable to the treas
ury and su~b-treasuries. The only
fund, therefore, available for deposit
in banks is internal revenue and mis-
c~eIlaneous receipts, before they have
been actually covered into the treas
ury. These amount to about half a
million per day and sirce the strin-
gency arose to their fulles- extent have
been s~teadfastly returned to circula-
ton. This policy will b. continued for
thirty or sixty days if needed, and
longer if necessary.
In the meantime national bank cir
culation has been increased about seven
million dollars, largely by distribution
Of deposits, and the further increase to
the amount of eight millions is as
sured.
"All rumOrs of experiments have
been unauthorized by the treasury de-
partment. 1t is to be hoped that the
public VIII place no credence in vag-
aries started by irresponsible and in
terested men OF the street. 1t is said
hoped that the country will understand
that he treasury department to the ex-
tent of it's ability VIII stanG by the
banks, east and west, no. tn and south,
and it is hoped also that the banks will
stand by every business and very in
terest that is worth protecting.
The only way to get money out of
the treasury into circulation, after it
has been actually covered in, IS by the
payment of legal obligations of the
government. These may be anticii ated.
The department did anticipate the Oc-
tOber interest. 1t now offers to an,ici-
pate all interest maturing between Cc-
tOber 1st and the end of the fiscal year.
If presented within sixty days at =
rebate of t~wO-tenths of one per cent.
per month, which is at the rate of "a
per cent. per annum. In other words
the obligations will be prepaid at sucn
a rate as to allow the government to
profit thereby at % per cent. per an
nun The amount maturing before
- 80. 1903. is in round figures $20,-
$4,000. The profit to the government
ia round figures 1920, 900.
There will be no experiments tried,
and no policy adopted until after ma
ture elaboration and ne feelers will
be sent out. Anything to the con-
trary should be di~scredited."
Regarding the published report that
he had resigned, Secretary Shaw said:
"I denied this rumOr in Chicago. 1t
would seem unnecessary to repud!aIe
q story that has no author n Is built
upon a false assumption and is en-
larged upon simply to fill space. The
president and the secretary of the
treasury are in thorough harmony. OF
this there need be no doubt, if the
speeches made by the president and the
secretary will be read and compared
instead of the headlines" .

Secretary Moody was more fully ad-
vised of the situation on the iSthmus
this afternoon by another and longer
cablegram from Commander Mclean,
at Colon. 1t was stated ab,the depart
ment that the commanders report was
to the effect that conditions on the
iSthmuS. while not seriously disturbed
now, are such that the United States
forces at present there, cannot be with
drawn or diminished.
After the receipt of this dispatch 1t
