POULTRY POINTERS.

Large ROSTERS with small hens is
very poor combination.
Scalded milk and cooked rice will
often stop diarrhea in fowls.
Indigestion, one of the worst diseases
among poultry, is often caused by sour,
moldy food.
Eggs intended to be Matched in an in
cubator should never be allowed to be-
come chilled
In order to have poultry tender and
juicy they must be fattened quickly.
Two weeks of good feeding are usually
sufficient
Use plenty of lime in the poultry
house. 1t viii kill lice, is a good dis
infectant, will purify the air, it de-
stroys vermin and prevents gapes.
One Of the best ways Of feeding oats
to poultry is to put them in a tub at
night, pour scaIding water over them
let them stand until morning and feed
them warm.
When the fowls are closely confined
or when the ground is covered with
snow, they must have bulky food. Cut
clover hay well steamed is good as
are also cabbage leaves.

NEGROES TO oWNTHEIR HOMES

The best citizens of any country are
found among those who live in their
own homes, who own the soil they cul-
tiyate; and one of the most hopeful
signs of the progress of the Southern
negro is found in the fact that he is
rapidly becoming the owner of his own
home. He will naturally gain some
what the sturdiness of character that
always comes with independence.
The January number of the Southern
Workman contains valuable article
by the Rev. G.. S. Dickerman on the
land tenure of the negroes in the
South. An excerpt from this article is
doubly suggestive:
'eThe most remarkable exhibit of ne
gro ownership of farms, says the VII
ter, sis afforded by Virginia and Mary
land. Virginia contains 100 counties,
and only one, Accomac. has SO small a
population as 1876 per cent of owners
and managers. Only counties have
less than 40 per cent, and only 70 less
than so per cent. More than half OF
the counties have over 70 per cent, 30
over so and 10 over 80. Moreover, II
we compare these figures with those
for white farmers it will be found that
in 80 counties a larger per cent of the
negroes own their farms than of white
farmers. It is very much the same IN
Maryland.
This shows the strength of tenden-
CIV on the part of the colored race to
take root in the soil. With present re-
forms going on in the education of this
people. this tendency is destined to be
greatly strengthened. This is alto
gether wholesome.
Does it not at the same time suggest
the necessity for such rural schools for
the white race as will instill lessons of
economy and thrift and will give that
training which will enable the rural
population, not only to possess the
land, but to subdue it. A people can
desire to live in the country only when
capable of making the country desir-
able place in which to live.

WHEREIN IS TRUE PROSPERITY

Once it was the custom Of we'll TODD
farmers, if they had an especially
bright boy, to educate him for pro-
fession, simply because he was ''too
smart" to be just farmer. If a son
was a dullard, all the education he
needed was reading, writing and arith-
metic as far as the ''single rule of
three for he was to be only a farmer,
and farmers did not need more educa-
ton than that. The result was the
farms became peopled with men with
out energy who were content to dig a
bare substance out of refractory soil,
and had no ambition and little desire
for anything better. They were CON
demned to life on the farm, and were
resigned to their fate. Under such
conditions is it any wonder that agri-
culture languished, and that progress
was impeded at every step? The con
dition was handed down to humanity
from remote antiquity with only a few
bright cases in the great desert Of agri-
cultural ignorance. When the repub-
lie of Rome was in It's glory agriculture
was looked upon as the noblest occupa-
ton of man, and her greatest statesmen
and warriors were farmers who, with
their own hands, yoked the bullocks
and guided the pillow. Itwas much the
same in Greece at one period of her
history and in Carthage and Syracuse.
But with those exceptions agriculture
was held to be the work of slaves or
blockheads. But farming as profess
sion is emerging from its clark ages, -
and farmers are recovering their heri-
tage of intelligence, progress and
prosperity. The world begins to real
ize the fact that a farmer can hardly
have too much knowledge of every
thing that pertains to agriculture. or
possess too much sound judgment and
business knowledge. The country de
ponds upon farmers for food, clothing
and the material for merchandise, and
are as much interested in farming as
farmers themselves. Others can no
more live and thrive without farms
and farmers than farmers can them
selves. Therefore the people, the
general government, the states, coun-
ties and even cities can 1nno other way
SO effectually serve their own inter
ests as by doing all they can lawfully
do to promote the interests of agricul-
ture.

FIRST VIEW OF WHITE MEN
The Rife and Burning Glass Fright
ened the Indians.


1t is small wonder that the first view
Of white man created terror among
the superstitious Indians. a striking
instance of this occurred when the
Wallawalla Indians first saw Captain
Clark of the Lewis and Clark expedi-
ton. Thinking to propitiate the saw
ages and allay their fears of the white
men, he planned to visit a village Of
the Wallawallas before the arrival Of
the rest of his party.
With this end in view, he set out to
cross the Columbia river in a canoe,
taking three men with him. On the
way he shot a crane and a duck, both
of which fell near him. He landed be-
fore five Wigwams placed close to each
other, but not person was visible,
and the doors, which were of mat,
were closed. Holding his pipe in hand,
as an indication of good will, he push
ed aside one of the doors and entered
the lodge.
Inside were thirty men, women and
children huddled together in terror.
He went to them, shook each by the
hand and said some friendly words,
expressing by word and manner his
kindly feeling Their apprehensions
were allayed until he took out his
burning glass and lighted his pipe by
the rays of the sun. CONSERVATION
again prevailed, and what might have
occurred but for the timely arrival Of
two chiefs who knew the white men
cannot be told.
1t seems that the Indians had not
seen Captain Clark, but they had seen
the white crane which he had shot
fall just before his appearance. They
had also seen the duck fall at his shot.
They connected the fall of the birds
with his advent and thought he had
fallen from the clouds.
The sound of the rife, which they
had never before heard, they believed
was a signal to announce the white
mans coming. Small wonder, then,
that their hardly allayed fears were
again aroused when he brought down
fire from heaven by means of his burn
ing gIass-Youth's Companion.

Removing Tumors Early.

If it were generally known among In
telligent people that great numbers of
innocent tumors sooner or later be-
come malignant and that malignant tu-
mOrs often simulate benign tumors and
remain quiescent for great while, the
sufferers would unhesitatingly consent
to the removal of these morbid groWths
in their inception, long before the pos
sible advent of serious mischief, or
when the cure might be effected by mi
nor operations which would leave the
smallest scars, especially in such parts
as the face, neck, arms or hands.

Uncle Sam needs to be on his guard

not be confrmed-but we will soon

vinol is a preparation that Is de-

It consists of delicate table wine
in which has been dissolved the active
curative principles that are found in
the liver of the live cod, and to which
cod-liver oil owes its reputation as a
remedy for coughs, colds and all vast

If there is any one who has cough,
tendency to take cold easily, or
dread of consumption, we would like
to have them call and permit US to ex-
plain what we know about Vinol and
why we believe it will cure all such
troubles more surely and quickly than
any other remedy ever given to the
public.
Following is a letter which has just
come to hand and which shows how
benefcially Vinol acted in one instances:

entirely left me. I have been decidedly
benefited by its use in every way. Very

there have been offenses In the immense

that some contracts have had in them

ployees. 1t Is not surprising that these
offenses have come. says the Troy Times.
The national administration has at
tackled the postal offenders with no un-
certain vigor. Indictments have been
found. and special Investigations have
been made which justify the comments
of the president In the memorandum
which he has just issued. The voice Of
republican presidents against evildoers
In public Office has always been to Let

Roosevelt takes up the motto In prompt

Indictment Is not conviction, and the de-

is not to be believed. however, that such
strong criticism would be uttered unless
