A merchant who had two stores in
neighboring small towns tried an ex-
pertinent. He put bargain counter
in each store containing the same ar.
ticles at the same prices. In the
newspaper of one village he adver-
tised his special bargain sale coun-
ters. In the paper of the other he
did not. In one month in the village
where he had not advertised he sold
1884 worth of goods. In the store
where he did advertise he sold the
same goods amounting to 81, 724
In commenting on the result, the
merchant says: "People who got the
paper with the advertisement would
pass by one store and drive for miles
to the other one for what they could
have gotten at the same price in my
store at their doors but they did not
know it was there"

There are 1910 rural routes in
Minnesota according to reports to
July l. of this year. Of these the
First congressional district leads
with oil, next in order is the Sew
enth with 2O9. Following are Third
and the Sixth with 189 each. the
Second with 189, the Ninth with IS
the Fourth with 81, the Eighth with
Al and the Fifth with 40. By the
end of the current fiscal year, it is
the expectation of the department
officials that pretty nearly all of the
available rural free delivery territory
in the state will be exhausted, at
least for the time being. Minnesota
stands we'll up in the list of states
enjoying rural service, but addition
al countries will be completed dur

Supt. Smyser has handed us a
copy of the report of the Commission
er of Labor on child labor fn Mimi
esota. The commissioner desires
the co operation of the school auth
critics in enforcing the child labor
law, and the schoo! authorities in
turn desire the cooperation of the
parents. The law forbias the en-
ployment of children under fourteen
years at all except during vacation
time. Children over fourteen but uc-
der sixteen may be employed at any
occupation, provided such employ
ment is not dangerous to life, health
or morals; but persons employing
such child must keep on file at all
times an employment permit issued
by the superintendent of schools.
An excuse from school attendance
granted by the superintendent does
not carry with it permission to work
if the child is under fourteen. 1t is
the clear intent of the law that all
children under sixteen should be
under the control of the school au-
thorities whether they are in school
or are excused to work. If the law
is not observed, the child may be
arrested without warrant by the
truant officer, and the parent or en-
pIoyer is subject to fine or imprison-
ment.

Regularity is the keynote of success.
Comfort brings health and productive

Surplus stock drOnes and unhealthy

France believes hen is more valuable

Better lose in satisfying disgruntled

One breed is enough, as rule. Thor

The business hen is one bred for thu
production of good supply of eggs and
meat, and not for fuss and feathers.
We hear very little nowadays about
allowing hens to mix their own rations.
The fact is, few creatures on the farm

Hen Profits.

A farmer in the Berkshire hills calcu'
lated on a profit of three dollars year
on every hen. He matches the chickens
in April. which is the best month in the
year in which to hatch medium-sizei
breeds. He makes production of cost
for market the foundation of profit and
strives to have eggs to sell in Novem-
Der and December. He carries but few
old hens over winter, relying on the pull
let's for winter laying. This friend OF
mine claims to have averaged ITO eggs
each hen yearly, producing eggs at a
cost of not far from ten cents Dozen

u SHALLOW HIVES. y
Wherein They Prove the Most Re-
munerativs to the Boz Keeper
Study Question Carefully. T.,

The depth of hives is one of the fine
points in bookkeeping and every one
who has tho care of bees should give the
matter long and thorough study. 1t Is
a problem that every honey-producer.
whether he counts his colonies by thou
sands, or only keeps ore to furnish hon.
ey for his table, has to confront. This ls
a question that even the "box-hive" ele-
ment is called upon to consider. Chang
ing from one hive to another is always a
costly operation and the time to get right
is at the very beginning. Looking back
ward, forward and around the corners.
after IL years experience in bee culture,
with this subject foremost in all my
agricultural Investigations, candor COM
pels me to say that there is no deep hive
made that will give satisfactory results
in the production of camb honey. With !
deep hive, the bulk of the honey crop will
be stored in the brood chamber unless II
is frame hive that can be contracted be-
low sufficiently to force the honey into
the boxes. In this case, the super will be,
wider than the brood nest, and, o1get
the best results, the brood ought to eX.
tend out under every section box. In
view of these facts, the casual observer
can quickly see that shallow brood.
chamber will give more section honey
than will a deep one, and that the
causes are unavoidable. Among the ten
cts of good bee keeping there has long
stood almost unchallenged the belief
that deep hives afford the bees more
protection against the cold of winter than
shallow ones. Whether or not there is
anything in this, will not attempt to
say here; but I do know that since
have been changing from deep to shall
low hives, my bees have wintered with
much less loss. Last winter, with nearly
all my colonies in shallow hives, did

STORMY WEATHER COOP.
How to Build One Which Will Shelter
the Chicks, But Will Keep the
Hens Busy on the Outside.

A good, practical. coop Is illustrated
herewith, says the Orange judd Farmer.
On stormy days the chicks can be con-
fined, or by door at the end have thu
use of the run. The main door, at the
side, has q bar that raises and lowers.
This permits the chicks to pass out and
in, but prevents the hen from doing so.
The hen may be let out when the whole
door is opened. At the end outside is I
box the cover of which raises SO that
food can be put in for the chicks alone.
