On some farms all kinds of poultry
are fed together, old and young, and
geese, ducks, turkeys and chickens.
There are always domineering indi-
viduals in all barnyards, hence it will
he an advantage to separate the older
from the younger stock when feeding.
The natural consequence Of promiscu-
Gus commingling Of fowls is that the
largest and strongest take their choice
and leave the refuse to be eaten by the
weaker, whereas the best should be
given to the poorest in order to help
them to a condition of thrift and
growth. 1t is also more economical to
make some distinction when feeding,
especially when profit is desired.

TRAVEL WITH JAPANESE ARMY.
Correspondents Are to Make Own
Arrangements.

Questions of arrangements for the
large number of foreign correspon.
dents who are DESTROYS of accompany.
ing the Japanese field forces have been
bothering the war office a great deal,
says a dispatch from Toxic. The JAP
anese wish to afford the correspon-
dents every reasonable facility pos
sible to make them comfortable while
campaigning, but recognize the diff
flculty, owing to the difference of con-
ditions of living to which foreigners
are accustomed.
After prolonged discussion 1t was
arranged for the correspondents to ap-
point contractor to run field can
teen and undertake transportation.
The war Office has approved the
scheme, and expects all the correspon-
dents to rely on the contractor, but
will supply rations in an emergency.
The contractor also supplies the for
eign military attaches. He is bonded
to fulfil his agreement.
The war office has finally determin-
ed to send only Is with the first col
umn. eight British, five American. one
Frenchman and one German, this be-
ing representation proportionate to
the respective number Of correspon-
dents here. Subsequent lots will &C.
company the different columns. 1t is
impossible to obtain definite informa-
ton as to when the start will be made,
but the Is already selected have been
told to be. ready to leave at moments

1t is the farmers boys who are most
likely to succeed, whether in business
or in professional life. Spending most
Of their time under the open sky.
breathing fresh air, and eating simple
food, they are more likely to have Wig
orous health and strong constitutions
than are their city cousins. Brought
into constant contact with nature, they
absorb a great deal Of useful knowl-
edge, and acquire habits Of observa-
ton. Then, too, the regular farm
work, the "chores" and numberless 9TH
err little things keep them well occupied
and enable them to feel that they are
earning their way, thus giving to them
sense of independence and cultivat-
ing a spirit Of self-reliance and manll-
ness. The performance of deal Of
drudgery is an indispensable prepnra-
ton for all real success in life, what
ever the occupation. A boy who is
afraid of work or of soiling his hands
need not expect to accomplish much
in the world. Country boys have their
full share. Of fun, but there are many
disngreeable duties on farm which
farmers boys learn to accept as a
matter of course. Edward Eggleston,
speaking .of the value of his farm
training when boy, once said to me:
IT learned one thing Of great value,
and that was to do disagreeable things
cheerfully."-Josiah Strong, in Success.

BATTLING With AN OCTOPUS.
~~~~~~~~~~

That vampire of the ocear, the
octopus, appears from time to time in
real-life narratives as fascinating as
fiction. Such is the story told in the
Royal Magazine by Capt. S. +. Scott of
British Columbia. He was catching
off Victoria with a party of friends,
and while alone one evening in row
boat a mile from the yatch, got into
school of black fish, one Of which
struck the little boat with such force
that its occupant was sent flying into
the water. Captain Scott continues;
1t seemed joke to be upset like that,
and l laughed. But this was to be
my last laugh for a long time, for
lust rs l had swum back to the boat
and laid my hands on the upturned
keel, l felt myself seized round the
legs, halfway below the knees-seized
with such strength and suddenness

force that the boat was jerked clean

head.

Tbs Miikmar's steady Job.

A veteran New York State dairyman
who has been in the business over half
century says that commencing in
1876 he was away from home but one
night in about twenty-five years. He
always used to do his own milking.
His average for many years was not
less than twenty cows night and morn
ing. He MIXED one COW nineteen years
and about ten months in the year. In
the year 1870 twenty cows gave him
10000 pounds Of milk, which Melted

Winter Fruit Tree Pruning.

While the early spring pruning and
the summer pinching back of the small
shoots covers the main pruning of the
fruit trees, much good work may be
done during the open days of winter
which will, at least, save time in the
spring. Broken limbs may be removed
and many of the inside limbs which are
overlapping the fruiting twigs can be
cut off during the winter as well as in
the spring. The work Of pruning should
always be done with a saw on limbs
100 large to cut with sharp knife; in
pruning saw from the under side of the
limb first, saving up quarter or
half through and finishing from the
top. This will result in clean cut and

was served in the hay barn on bales
of straw. The menu consisted of pump
kin pie. corn pudding and corn on cake.
A fiashlight was taken of the huskers.

machinery gave serious trouble
through filaments of cotton adhering
to the bobbins, thus involving frequent
stoppages to clear the machinery. The
wages of the operatives were affected
by these delays, but it was noticed that
one man in the works always drew full
pay. His loom never stopped.

Stole From Employer.

For several months past j. II. Ga

rings, watches, opera glasses, pins.
and the like, and the leakage became
very eXasperating. He reported his
losses TO the police, who at once took
up the case, but with no tangible clues
TO work upon. The systematic thefts
had reached in value the sum of $500.
and Mr.. Gabathuler was at a loss TO
discover how they occurred. Mr.. Ga
bathuler had in his employ a young
man named Fred Pipes. who was an
apprentice. and 10 whom he paid Il
weekly wage of $3.50. Naturally the
police began TO investigate the youth.
and TO pry into his movements. Sus-
piciOns were confirmed and young
Pipes was arrested at the home of his

avenue in East Davenport. He was
taken directly before J. H. Gabathuler,

thefts he broke down, and confessed

her children used to drink

should like something that is

that's why they like it so
