Attention
Farmers.

Why remain in the North
and stay in doors six months
in the year consuming what
you raise during the other
six months?
Go South where you can
work out doors every month
in the year and where you
are producing something the
year round. If you are a
stock raiser you know your
stock are now seating their
heads of" and, besides, have
to be protected from the rig.
ors OF winter by expensive
shelter.
Economical stock feeding
requires the combination Of
both fesh-forming and fat
forming foods in certain pro-
portions. Alabama and Flor
ida produce In abundance the
velvet bean and cassava, the
first a flesh producer, and the
latter a fat producer, and
they are the cheapest and
best fattening material that
is known to the world.
More money can be made
and with less labor, in gener-
al farming, fruit and berry
growing and truck gardening
along our road In the South
than in any other section of
the Union.

Louis xlv,s Gorgeous Buttons.

pearl stud, G9S0 for coat fastener

THE DOORWAY.

In the heart Of the day l strayed to
the heart of tangled wood,
And there, like dream, before me a
desolate portal stood.
Strange and solemn and sombre 1t

Mystery fell like fog; fear swept
by like moan.
1t was bolted strongly above, and
bolted below again,
And one of the bolts was Sorrow, and
the other bolt was Pain.
Two dim lights hung in the shadow,
two red and misty spheres,
And my soul sank as l saw them, for
knew they were Blood and
Tears.
The way was lost behind me, back
ward dared not go;
beat upon the portal, and my heart
broke with the blow.

A ZUNl BABY.

The Zuni child spends his early
days In cradle. But a cradle in
Zuni-land does not mean down pill
lows, silken coverlets and fluffy
lacss; it is only fiat board, just the
length of the baby, with hood like
dolls buggy top over the head.
Upon this hard bed the baby is
bound like a mummy-the coverings
wound round and round him until the
little fellow cannot move except to
open his mouth and eyes. Sometimes
he is unrolled, and looks out into the
bare whitewashed room, blinks at the
fire burning on the hearth and fixes
his eyes earnestly on the wolf and
cougar skins that serve as chairs and
beds and carpets in the Zuni home.
By the time he is two or three years
old, ne has grown into a plump little
bronze creature, with the straightest
of coarse black hair and the biggest
and roundest of black eyes. He is
now out OF the cradle, and trots about
the house and village. When the
weather is bad he wears as-small
coarse shirt, and always a necklace
of beads or turquoise. From Maria
Brace Kimball's This Children OF
Zuni" in St. Nicholas.

BATHS OF RADIANT HEAT.
Pain Ranisbed by Electric Light
Treatment.

A heat and light treatment which.
has caused much comment lately
among scientists, says the London
Express, is the Dowsing system, that
consists chiefly in directing electric
heat rays en- the body Of the person
subject for treatment. The system
is used in cases OF rheumatism, govt,
,sclatica, lumbago and similar dis
eases and certain forms Of tubsrcular
troubles. Thssesrays are claimed to
be the nearest approach to the suns
rays obtainabie by artificial means.
The great advantage peculiar to this
treatment lies in the ability of the
electric rays to penetrate the body
going direct to the part or parts Of
the trouble. To undergo this treat
msnt the person is first placed upon
a bed, after removing all clothing,
and wrapped snugly in the covers,
with the head only outside. The
rays are then turned on, and the sub
ject is literally bathed in heat. The
patient by this system is subjected
to temperature of 800 or 400 de
grees. The person does not expert
ence any discomfort, Notwithstanding
this great heat. Ordinary heat Of
this high intensity would do the hui
man body to turn, but these electric
rays, being dry, evaporate the excret-
ed perspiratipn. This method just
mentioned is for general Treatment.

others the animal soon learns how to

to perfection, and it is made and ap-
piled in the following manner: The
usual halter is placed on the head Of
the COW and ring is fastened in it
just under her neck. Then strap or

Just behind her forelegs. From this
strap or rope another strap is run,
having at the. end a crupper such as is
used on horses. This is placed in the
proper position under her tail. Then
u pole Is secured sufficiently long to
reach nearly to the middle of her body
to a joint just beneath the ring fast
ened In the halter. A hoe is bored

Poultry Pickinps.

Mix the corn well with skim milk.
Old plaster furnishes good lime ma-
terial.
When chick frequently picks itself
1t is lousy.
Late Matched pullets will rarely lay
until spring.
Hardness is the first of NIL qualities
to seek in breed.
In raising broilers for market earli.
ness is quite an item.
Boil and mash potatoes and mix
with milk before feeding. =
Food should be varied sufficiently 10
Keep the chicks with good appetite.
Poultry will bring in the quickest
returns of anything usually raised on
farm.
The larger the number of fowls
kept the smaller the expense proper
.tionately.
Geese require less grain and less
expensive buildings than any other
variety Of poultry.
The incubator will hatch as many
fertile eggs as the hen at much less
cost of labor and trouble.
A variety of food will not cost any
more than ore article NIL the time, but
it pays n good deal better.
If too many hens are allowed to run
with one cock there Is always risk
Of some of the eggs proving unfertile.
Feeding broken oil cake to fowls
twice a week will often promote lay.
ing when other foods fail to give good
results.
The production Of feathers in either
young or old fowls will be materially
assisted by liberal supply Of bone
and shell.
The foods required for growth and
egg production are somewhat similar
inasmuch as each requires gluten and

at one end to the ring in the halter,
and at the other end to the strap or
rope about her body. The strap from
the back to the tail prevents any slip
ping of the middle strap and the. ap-
pliance is absolutely secure, making
1t impossible for the COW to reach her
udder with her mouth. The illustration
clearly shows the idea.
