BOXERS WARNED BY MONUMENT
Won ketteIer's Memorial at Pekin In
scribed with a Significant Edict.

The formal presentation to the
Germans of the monument recently
erected in Pekin by the Chinese gov
eminent, in honor of Baron Won
Ketteler, was attended with great
ceremonies. Thousands of people
gathered to witness the rites.
Speeches were made and libations
offered in atonement for the mad act
of Chinese soldier.
1t is an interesting fact that the two
officials who gave the body of Baron
Won Ketteler temporary burial, lost
their lives for this act. Later, the
soldier who fired the fatal shot was
discovered by the watch which he had
taken from the German ambassador,
and at the demand of the German
government was publicly executed on
the spot where the tragedy occurred
The monument built over this spot
! is of beautiful white marble, and
bears ,nree inscriptions, one in Ger
man, one in Latin and one in
Chinese. A literal translation of the
Chinese inscription is as follow:
"Germany's ambassador Baron Won
Ketteler, came to manage govern
ment affairs. l, the Emperor, .reposej
great confidence in him. Alas, The
twenty-sixth year of Kuang Hsu, the
fifth month, the boxer rabble made
linsurrection. The ambassador was
killed on the twenty-fourth of that
month. For this l exceedingly grieve,
and command marble pablo to be
erected at the place of his death, to
set forth his excellent character, and
to show that | honor good and hate
evil.
Let all officials and people take
warning from the past, ana guard in
the future.
Forget not my commands. Col

A Miraculous Vault.

The most interesting place of
pilgrimage in Dublin is st. Michans
church, where the organ is still to be
seen upon which Handel is said to
have composed his Messiah" In the
graveyard is the last resting place of
Robert Emmett. And the vault at St.
Michan's provides a more grewsome
thrill than the morgue. The sexton
lifts an iron door and descends a few
rude steps, carrying a light, without
which the place would be pitch dark.
You follow and find yourself ina mar
now passage, from which cell-like re-
cesses belonging to different families
branch off. Whether it is owing to
the extreme dryness of the surround
ings or to some mysterious property
of the place the process of decay has
been arrested, and the features of the
persons dead for two centuries may
lie recognized from authentic por-
traits. Here lie the brothers Sheares,
who Were executed for their share il
the united Irish conspiracy, side by
side almost with the Earl of Leitrim,
who was murdered about 80 years
ago. The earl's ancestors for hun
dreds of years back rest in the same
vault. Perhaps the strangest thing
about the vault is the fact that, apart
from {hg yeird sensation, there is
nothing afensive in the surround
ings.-Lndon Taller.

keep the leavings for themselves al
ways go back. Sell only the culls and
those you do not need for yourself,
and always keep the best. Another
point is a uniform flock. Select one
kind of color of standardized fowls
and stick to them. Nothing looks
more attractive than one kind and
color of fowls on q farm. If white
flocks are kept, have them all white;
if buff, have them all buff; if barred,
have them all barred Uniformity OF
color adds value to the entire flock,
whether sold for market, for breeding
or for exhibition fowls.

Facts for Our Farmers.

for growing chicks fast and large
Considerable harm is done through the
improper use of mash or mixed food
The benefit derived from using
mashed food is through the quick
handling of it through the crop and
into the system. Properly prepared
foods, mashed or cooked, aid in the
handling of them and quicken the
growth, and for this reason such foods
are beneficial, but poorly-prepared,
sloppy foods are injurious to them.
Finely ground corn, oats and barley,
mixed with wheat bran and middlings,
equal parts by measure, make a splen-
did mash or mixed feed. With this
may be mixed some nice, clean, sweet
meat scraps-just a little at first, and
as the chickens become used to it you
may have one-fifth of the whole mash
| OF it if you like. This amount will
make the combs grow fast, and it does
not injure the market fowl. 1t de-
tracts, however, from the exhibition
fowl. In preparing the mash, scald
j it with boiling water or milk, mixed
well. Have it just wet or moist
enough to mix nicely. When well
mixed, cover it with a cloth and let it
stand to swell and cool. Feed warm,
but never hot. When thus prepared
it is partly cooked and cannot do them
any harm; but when mixed cold and
fed to them raw and in watery state,
it is liable to do as much harm as
good. Much depends on the prepar-
ing and mixing of the food for good re-
suits, and all should take pains to
have it right
At first the chicks should be fed
every two hours. AS they grow older,
feed them three or four times a day
each time as much as they will eat
If you feed them mash, give them one
full feed of it each day At night
feed all the grain they will eat, and
feed it as late in the day as they can
see to eat il; and give them enough,
so there will be some for morning as
soon as tney get up. Grit, green food
and fresh water they should have at
all times; and have these where
they can help themselves at will. Wet
weather will not do them so much
harm if there is a dry place for their
feet and clean, dry coop for them to
go into out of the wet AS soon as
the chicks are large enough to SHIFT
for themselves, they will do best in
colonies scattered about the place. The
chicks will do better if the hen is kept
continually in her coop, while they are
allowed to have their freedom. When
the hen runs with the small chicks,
they walk too much for their good.
When growing the chicks for mar
ket feed them as much and as often
as they will eat; and don't let the hen
run them about. Feed them mash
food twice day instead of once. Push
them fast and sell them for broilers
as soon as ready. Never sell your
early pullets-that is, the good ones
Always select the best of these for
yourself Never sell the best hens
or pullets. None are too good for
next winters layers. Those who al
ways keep the best for themselves go
forward; those who sell the best and

Care of Young Chickens.

| When one starts to raise chickens
he must first of all be sure that there
are no lice or insects of any kind
about the hens or the nest boxes
where they lay or sit. If the hens that
sit On the eggs for Matching have lice
upon them, the nests will soon be
full of them, and as soon as a chick
is Matched they will begin their work.
says the Country Gentleman. Never
place hen on eggs for the purpose of
having her hatch them without
thoroughly busting her feathers with
insect powder, so as to rid her abso-
lutely of all living insects. Soak or
paint the nest box with coal oil, kero-
sene or lice paint prior to setting the
hen, for by so doing you start right.
and thus insure against the lice get
ting the start of you. After the hen
has been on the nest week or 10
days, dust her again with the powder.
so as to destroy any lice that may
have Matched from eggs deposited
among her feathers. Nests made
from tobacco stems are not of much
value. The smoke from the stems
will destroy some of the small insects
that infest plants, and some are of
the opinion that the tobacco odor will
destroy some hen and pigeon lice, but
we have no proof of this. Lice are not
killed by an odor, unless, like tobacco
smoke, it smothers them.
Feeding the chicks is of equal i'm
portance with other things. Much
contention has come up in regard to
when to feed and what to feed for the
first meal. The first meal should be
given them as soon as the chick will
eat. Let the chicks be the Judge.
You cannot make them eat before they
will, nor can you force them to eat
more than they want. If deprived Of
food when needed they will suffer for
want of it. For these reasons place
the food where they can get it if they
want it, and let them alone Small
rolled oats, bread crumbs, or crumbled
corn bread is best at first After this,
use the hard-boiled egg mixed with
bread crumbs-once or twice a day
for this, not oftener. With this food
alternate the rolled oats, bread crunl5s
or broken corn bread for the first
week. After this give them oatmeal,
cracked wheat, very fine broken corn
and some millet seed. The mixture
of small broken grains and some corn
bread crumbled fine will grow them to
a size where they can have whole
wheat. hulled oats and broken corn.
Nothing is better than this mixture of
grains. Hulled oats are the oats taken
out of the husks-same as wheat is
taken from its chaff.
Corn bread should be made from
corn meal mixed with sweet or sour
milk, whichever you have, few eggs
mixed with it, and some baking pow
der to make it light. Bake it as you
would if you were going to use it for
yourself. When cold crumble fine
for the young chicks. Some make it
with only water and meal, but milk
and eggs add greatly to the benefit de-
rived from its use. Mash feed, if prop
erly made and fed, is of untold value

APRIL RAIN IN THE WOOD.

When it comes, a passing guest,
Young leaves, like young birds in the
nest,
Open wide their mouths to gain
AS much as they can of April rain;
And weanling squirrels that learn to
creep
In branches where they soon will
leap,
Pause to taste the drop that cleaves
To the delicate faces of opening
leaves;
Pale buds that shrink in hot sunshine
Unfold to drink this April wine.
AS softly as it came, it goes
So softly that leaf scarce knows
Who has blessed it, whom to thank
For the cool, fresh cup il drank.

The Pest of Lice in Hens.

One of the most disagreeable pests
that annoy young birds and ultimately
cause the death of many, if not
checked, are the lice. They will appear
| in such numbers that the birds will
droop and die, but not louise will the
owner be able to find. Yet this
should not convince him that the birds
are not suffering from the pest. 1t is
better to take the birds and hang
them up and grease them thoroughly.
Lard or kerosene will accomplish the
| desired result in short order. Some
{ advocate not using either of these on
the turkeys until they are month
old, but if the binds are attacked
severely by the lice, it is much safer
to protect them in this way than to
let them stand their chances with the
| insects. Lard is safer for the young
turkeys than kerosene, and it will ac-
complish the purpose intended. Ere
quently the lice appear on the young
! turkeys before they are a week old,
and by a month they are half-killed by
them. Melt some lard in tin, and
with soft toothbrush it is possible to
spread the grease over the wings,
feathers of tail and body, so that the
lice will all be killed. This should
be done every few weeks up to the
middle of August, if the lice are very
numerous or troublesome. and after
that time you will have little trouble

Champion Potato Country.
Germany has been having an ex-
position at which special attention
was devoted to the culture and
economic use of the potato as food for
man and the lower animals, and as
material for the manufacture of alco-
hol, starch, and by-products. From
report for the year 1900, sent to
Washington by Consul-General Mason,
is appears that for every 10000 inhabi-
tants of the fatherland there were
planted 100 acres of potatoes, as
oSdiHoC LIZ dCISS III AuSlIld, 90 acres
in France, 81 acres in Great Britain
and Ireland, and 34.S acres in the
United States, but Germany is ahead
of us. Perhaps it is because the
American people can better afford
meat and wheat that they consign the
humble tuber to a place of compare
tive obscurity.

NOTES..

Dehorning calves is described as

cultural department bulletin on this
subject that it is difficult to explain
why it is ever postponed until the
hoTns are fully grown and the neces.
sity arises, if hornless cattle are
wanted, for saving them off. To de-
horn, secure pencil or caustic pot
ash at drug store. When the calf is
three or four days old throw it to the
ground, locate the little knot which
indicates the young horn. wet it well
and rub it with the pencil. held in a

the operation. 1t constitutes but a

animal no pain. If after a couple of
weeks any signs of growth appear a
second application will complete the
job.
The latest estimate places the total
number OF apple trees of bearing age
in the United States at something
over 2OO,000,000. This is nearly three
trees TO every person. These trees
yield more than 100000 bushels.
Not all of these apples are consumed
at home, for in years of full crop more
than 100000 bushels go abroad. Yet
the apples kept to home are over two
bushels to every adult and child.

Points to Watch in Sugar Making.


Dudley Carleton of Vermont recent
ly made an address before the Vel-
mont sugar makers at Montpelier and
said in part: Dispatch in converting
sap to sugar or syrup is one of the es-
sential things that must be attended
to and rapid and hallow boiling should
be remembered. Ii your sap is going
to be affected by change of weather
before you can boil it. put a cake of
ice into your storage tank as you
would your milk to keep it sweet.
Keep all foreign matter out, and after
removing the inter, put it up in
package that will please the public
eye. Sugar may be made of any
grain that is wanted by cooking it
and handling it. The less cooking
and the more stirring you give it the
finer the grain will be, and vice versa.
Put your label on every package and
send out, and be ready to back them
up every time. If you do not have a.
No. l sugar do not try to fiji an order
with the poorer grade One great
help to the sugar-maker is to make
sugar that will sell itself.
