Most Surprising.

According to an American who has

have a word Of salutation which
sounds like Ohio. When he was a Yo-
kohama 4 fellow countryman was see

Japanese are very polite, and when
ever the American met tb I'm they gave
him b usual wor of greeting. Al
first he wasn't quite certain, but as
party after party bowed profoundly
and said "Ohio," he became convinced
that they were uttering the name of
his w State, and we was q badly
puzzled Occidental. Finally, on pass
ing a group of a dozen or more, who
were more than usually courteous. and
who viciferated the word of welcome,
he couldn't repress his establishment

JERSEY FOR PROFIT.

While the experts are figuring ont
all the details of the great diary dem
onstration held at st. Louis last sum
mer, which takes time, that part of the
public interested are eagerly await
ing the official results. Some fig.
ures are already at hand, however,
from reliable sources. In test" A.
heards and individual cows entered
for demonstrating the economic pro-
duction of t t and butter-the Jersey
herd is far in the lead, with the
Holstiens second. AS there were
twenty-five Jerseys and but fifteen
Holsteins entered in this test, it is
necessary, for comparison, to take the
average net profit per cow. The Jer-
sey herd yielded during the 120 days
124. pounds milk, containing
$4,000 pounds fat, equivalent. to
6.S44.99 pounds butter, which valued
at twenty-five cents per pound,
amounts to $1.711.25. The feed con-
sumed cost s722.40. leaving a net prof
it to the credit of the Jersey herd of
s9SS.S5, or a profit of $685. per cow
for the 120 days.
The net profit Of the Holstein herd
is s439. or 500 per COW. Thus the Jer-
seys have surpassed the Holsteins as
profitable butter makers by SO per
head.
In regard to the relative standing
of indi yidual cows, four Jerseys lead
all the herds in net profit. while the
best Holstein comes fifth, followed by
ten Jersey. In the bost fifteen COWS
there is but one Ho'stein: in the TWEEN
ty leading cows there are but three
Holsteins.
The figures given may be somewhat
modified by the final official comput--
tions, but no material alteration is
likely. What has been demonstrated
in test "a" is plainly-"Jerseys for
profit."-R. NJ. Cow in The Massachu-
sets Ploughman.

NOTES

The mongrel is a thing of the past
in prof. able poultry culture.
An overfe1 hen is stupid, lazy and
improbable. The eager, active, hun
cry hen is the profit maker.
Fowls must have a variety of food
TO do we'll. No n grain will long be
re.ished by the fowls if made an ex-
elusive diet. ~
In breeding high class fowls 1t Is
quality, not quantity. that counts. A
combination of both is desirable, but
not always obtainable.
A little linseed meal in the mash
occasionally will tend to add luster to
the plumage and promote digestion,
but it must be fed sparingly.
Every poultryman should be a stu
dent. He should by careful study and
close observation equip himself to
master the emergencies that are GER
tain to arise sooner or later.
If living on a farm don't fail to lay
aside a few bundles of unthreshed
grain. The hens will enjoy tearing
it to pieces next winter and the in
creased egg yield will pay you for the
trouble.
A hundred lice in a poultry house
will multiply to a thousand in a short
time, and 10 a million within a month,
| unless checked. It's much easier to
( kill the hundred than the million.
Never since poultry first began to
attract particular attention have the
| prospects been so bright, and never
before has the demand for pure bred
! poultry been so good as at the pres
ent time.
The is no economy in buying poor
or musty grain. Aside from the fact
that it lacks nutriment, it is often the
cause of sickness, especially among
the young stock. Better pay a good
price and get good. sound grain. 1t
is cheaper in the end.
The early laying pullet should be
marked and kept for the breeding pen
next season, provided she is otherwise

pullet that begins to lay early in life
is the n that will lay the largest
number of eggs in a year.

TO AWAKEN WHEN you WISH.


Simple Plan Which Req aires No Alarm
Clock to BE Set.
We hear it frequently asserted that
il persons will impress the thought
firmly upon their minds and continue
thinking about it until they have fallen
asleep that they desire to awake at a
certain hour in the morning, they will
do it without fail, says a writer in the
st. Louis be-Democrat. But how
insuring a prompt awakening at a
given hour in the morning only to find
their rest throughout the night dis
turbed and uneasy?
The brain will usually respond to
the will and awaken one in the morn
ing neal the desired hour under any
circumstances. but to prevent the I'M
broken, uneasy sleep the adoption Of
only a very simple device is necessary.
The last thing before getting into bed,
take a watch or clock and turn the
hands to the hour at which n wishes
to rise and a z at this just long
enough to fix the hour firmly on the
retentive memory. Then, IL no other
absorbing thoughts intervene between
that and the moment one is locked in
slumber, the nights rest will be easy
and unbroken and promptly at the
hour in the morning, as a rule, one
will find ones self released from sleep
and wide awake.
There is no need to keep thinking Of
the hour continually for a number of
minutes, no need to repeat it over and
over in the mind; all that makes the
brain uneasy and results in the dis
turbed slumber. Simply look at the
watch or clock, as 1 have indicated,
and the influence Of the mind over
matter will be clearly demonstrated in
the morning. Try it some night and
observe how smoothly this phsycho-
logical fact works.
