DRY FEEDING.

Hundreds Of young chicks are
hatched every year that die before
they are a month old The most COM
mon cause of death is bowel trouble.
This is not always caused by the food.
A chill will often cause digestive trou-
bic and death, but the most common
cause is improper food, or food in an
improper condition.
Nearly all writer's on poultry now
advocate dry feeding. This week we
devote most Of our space to this sub
ject. Some writer's recommend it NOT
only for chicks, but also for grown
fowls. We have followed this method
for years with unvarying success. We
feed dry grain almost entirely. We
1--WE them table scraps, including rem
nants of cooked grits, etc, but this is
cooked until solid and not sloppy.

shouid Ray For Publicity.

Newspaperdom, that excellent New
York publication that is always giving
good advice to editors aud publishers,
has persistently advocated that news
papers charge their own towns for the
publicity they may give them. Many
cities that DO not half support their pa
pers want those papers 20 give a great
deal of free publicity TO the cities and
do an enormous amount OF shouting
FOR the cities for nothing. or course,
every paper should support It's home
town. but IL the town refuses 20 sup
port the paper. then il is Inconsistent
TO expect that the paper should sup
port the town. III newspaper has
any money TO give away, il should give
10 TO the most deserving. \ uewspa-
per's space is its money. IL the town
Is in need Of charity. Il would be a
wise thing for the publisher 10 pull up
stakes ane get out II is scarcely pro-
per that a ~ per should give its money
TO a city. This is certainly a correct
view of the matter. However. as
many papers seem dcsircus OF giving
their space away TO Lli kinds OF enter
prises. II would bc better Cor them TO
give IL 10 the home towu.

SEND THE BEST.

If farmers will make il a rule to send
only the best 10 market they will get
more money for One-half OF their crop
when prices are low than for the
whole. When the markets are well
supplied only the best will sell. Not
only should the articles be selected,
but they should be uniform-of the
same quality-at the bottom of the
basket az at the top. Instead Of reduc-
ing the prices of potatoes by sending
the very small ones to market, keep
those that are unstable, feed them on
the farm and they viii then be more
valuable.

RREED. NOT FEED.

Farmers who believe that IL IS the
feed and not the breed which gives
the results can soon satisfy themselves
by keeping two steers, one a pure-bred,
or grade Shorthorn, and the other a
scrub, giving both the same care as 10
food and shelter, and using food liber-
ally. The well-bred animal will in
crease almost twice as rapidly as the
other. The food is certainly very
important factor, but the breed must
90 with the food if a profit on the food
Is desired.

ROYAL ECONOMY.

An incident that occurred recently il- illustrates the frugality of Emperor Will liam's family.
 The empress, with two of her court ladies, was sitting on terrace in the park of Sans Souci, at Potsdam pal ace, when another lady of the court, countess, approached. The countess was accompanied by her little girl, and the Empress called to her own little daughter, the Princess Victoria, who was playing down below, to come up and make this child's acquaintance. A few minutes later the Empress felt somebody tugging at her sleeve.
 Mammal whispered a small voice at her ear ''see what beautiful things that little girl has (the countess daughter was most expensively dressed). And it is not SSunday, and there are no unele-kings here. And I am little princess, and she Is ailttle countess And she has on as beautiful things as you give me on Sunday and

TO SEND A MAN BY POST.

The limit of weight for a parcel. per parcel post, is, as we all know, II pounds. No doubt, then some Tid-Bits reader will be surprised that under certain conditions the Post Office will undertake to safely deliver weights many times in excess of that stated in 1 the regulations.
 One day last year city gentleman called at St. Martins le Grand with the tobject of consulting directory and finding the address of a customer who lived in a remote of Balham. He was not acquainted with the locality and wag most anxious to see his customer lat once. These facts he mentioned to
 an obliging clerk behind the counter.
 He was at once informed that he
 could be sent to the required address
 by registered post" at a fee of pence
 mile. The gentleman gladly accept , ed the offer, and in less than a minute
 found himself in charge of a smart
 messenger boy, who very soon guided i him by the shortest route to his des- tination.
 The boy carried in his hand printed
 slip a description of his charge under
 the heading, Article required to be de- flivered" and this he required the gen. ltleman and customer to sign before he left the latters house.
 It is probable that very few people are aware of the regulation under which this curious postal transaction Twas accomplished. It reads thus: "A
 person may be conducted by express
 messenger to any address on payment
 of mileage fee. "-Tid- Bits. 1
