costs as much to travel in Japan nowadays
as in the United States or any country of
Europe. The price Of everything has ad
vanced rapidly. Hotel rates are more than
double what they were ten years ago, and
every form of food and labor has advanced
even more rapidly.
They tell us that the first imitation fol-
lowed Immediately after the war with
China. Then, four years later, when
Japan adopted a gold standard, every
thing doubled in price at once. The same
wages that had been paid in silver were
demanded in gold, and the same price
was asked for everything.
recent publication of the Department
of Commerce and Agriculture shows this
advance in values in the most extraordi-
nary manner.
The following table, based upon 100 as
the unit, shows the market prices of the
articles named in 1887, compared to those
in 1900 and there has been an even
greater advance since the latter date:

Truthful Reporter Says Fowl Weighs

Harry Pinkham. of Nevada, Story
county, Iowa, owns a Toulouse goose
which is indeed a monstrosity and has
attracted a great deal Of attention at
the various places at which it has been
exhibited by Mr.. Pinkham. The fowl,
which is little over two years of age.
weighs IA pounds, and has been ex-
hibited at the fat stock show at Chica-
go, at Des Moines at the Iowa state
fair, and will be taken to st. Louis to
be exhibited this summer at the LOU
isiana Purchase exposition. The enor-
nous weight of the goose has been too
heavy for it's web feet. and in order to
protect the goose from the frozen
ground this winter Mr.. Pinkham made
for the fowl pair of rubber shoes
which fit on the two web feet The
goose has been in the habit of laying
an egg about every day, and these eggs
are of enormous size, being as large as
an ordinary water bottle, and the land

Trimming Incubator Wicks.

At this season, incubator and brooder
lamps are being lighted up In all parts
of the country, and trimmed with the
scissors or a sharp knife. Much better
results can be had by using small
piece Of woolen cloth. Pit the Ugh out
and turn the wick up so the charred
portion stands above the wick-holder,
and rub that portion of the wick cross
wise with the cloth; then turn up lit
tie more, and rub from center to each
edge. The latter method will leave the
wick slightly higher in the center. and
it will burn with a clean, oval flame.
This same cloth will do to clean the
metal parts of the burner, and will last
a long while. We trim our house lamps
in the same way, and never have UNI
even flame or letters in the candle"
effect. If you will use this cloth meth
cd of cleaning in thorough manner.
you will never have dim lights and un-
even heat-D. E. Howatt, in Country

POULTRY YARD CHATTER,

Cheap food is always at the expense
of quality. .,.~
No food Is cheap that does not bring
paying results.
Provide plenty of nests where there
are many hens or pullets.
Damaged food invites indigestion
and various bowel troubles. d. agzsq
g It's trouble to look after a flock Of
poultry in the way it should be done
but 1t pays. 20
Grit, either oyster shells or crushed
granite, should be kept under cover
accessible to the poultry. w
Air the poultry house once a day, no
matter how cold 1t IL. Don't neglect
to clean out the House every morning
because 1T is so cold"
Keep the cockerels and pullets sepa-
rate until couple of weeks before you
commence saving eggs for Matching.
Both will be the better for the plan.
The best condition remedy" for
poultry is good care, cleanliness in the
houses, variety of sound food. grit,
pure water, etc., and making the stock
exercise in scratching shed.
Keep the poultry busy scratching.
Plenty of short, dry straw litter or
leaves under a shed or in the house is
the way and place. Scatter a little
cracked corn or wheat several TIMES
during the day. Late in the evening
give enough warm food to provide for
the required amount.

Extraordinary Performance Of Mere
Handful Of Union Soldiers
at Stone River.

my recollection said the sergeant.
in the Chicago Inter Ocean, 'of the
charge Of Crufts' brigade at Stone river
is little hay, but the regular captain
who told the story of Col. Enyart COM
ing through the lines is correct as to that
particular, incident. I know, because
at the time I was right at the tail OF the
colonel's horse My recollection is that
the fight opened with charge by the
confederates on the first line Of our
) brigade. composed Of the Thirty-first In
diana and the Second Kentucky. The
line wayered at times, but held it's
ground Johnny Wright riding like mad
among the, boys, encouraging them to
stand firm. -
This was surprising to the boys of
the First Kentucky, lying in the second
line, because they had regarded Wright
as sort of dude or bandbox soldier.
But he was in the thick Of the fight, TAX
ing more risk than any other mounted
oHcerein the brigade. When the fruit
line was compelled to retire for ammu-
milton, Wright galloped to Col. Enyart's
side, and, as Anderson says, turned in a
mock heroic way to say to our regiment
that the eyes OF the universe were upon
us. We went forward at once, passing
the line of the Second Kentucky, and
with the Ninetieth Ohio on our left adj
vanced almost at run against the en-
envy.
From this time my recollection is
clear as to what our battalion did. Tho
confederates who had made such a
stubborn fight gave way, and at least a
part OF the First Kentucky pursued
them without waiting for orders, or
without thought of consequences.
There seemed to be nothing in our way.
and our company and others kept going.
Looking behind, we saw the colonel at
considerable distance waving his sword.
Some of the boys thought he wanted us
to come back, but the majority said h"
was urging us on, and on We went un-
til We reached the corn field spoken OF
by Anderson.
Here we dressed our line, and when

MONEY IN RAISING GEESE.
It Is Pleasant Occupation and One
That Provides Several Sources
2 @@@ Of Income. ~

If there is abundant pasturage little
feed is required during the summer
months, as geese depend almost wholly
upon grass. In winter provide an in
closure or perfection and feed some
grain, shredded silages or hay twice
day. If too much grain is given laying
viii be induced too early and the eggs
will not be fertile. Geese seek mates
in February.
A profitable: cross for market pur-
poses is obtained by mating an Emb-
den gander with Toulouse female.
The green goose, as styled by the
English, is marketable at about four
months. although they are often placed
upon the market at two months It
large and well-fatted. 1's
Young goslings should be given
warm quarters, not allowed to get
chilled, and much the same treatment
given as to ducklings, until strong
enough to follow the mother.
While plenty Of drinking wafer must
be provided, and bath occasionally IS
beneficial, yet it is not essential that
ponds be prepared nor that geess
should dabble in water at all times. II
the geese have access to running water
or q pond it will be necessary to pen
the goslings and the mothers for few
weeks until the down is well out.
Cornmeal. slightly Waited. should b
fed goslings, and scraps from the tabls
are liked.
To fatten glese they should be
placed out of sight or hearing of their
mates, or they will not fatten easily.
Give plenty of grass and water daily.
in addition to grain or scalded meal.
Cooked turnips are relished.
A pound of feathers is about the av-
erage amount obtained from six geese
when picked for their feathers; when
killed, three geese generally furnish
one pound. The Toulouse lays from
twenty to twenty-five at a clutch. The
first clutch should be set under hens
the goose being allowed to sit on the
last. II well managed each goose
ought to raise 20 goslings in the sea-
son, and when ready for market each
should weigh ten pounds.-New Eng

Foundations for Sections.

Foundation for sections may be or
dered by the pound, and costs little.
A pound goes a long ways if used only
as top starters. Full sheets Of fornda-
ton are advised by those who mako a
business of bee-keeping. Cut them true
square and fill the sections within one
quarter inch of the bottom and one
eighth inch of the inside width Of the
section. But If one desires to be economic
cal, top starters an inch wide may be
used as comb-guides and will be found
an important factor in the production
of fancy comb honey-MidlandF Farmer.
