THE POULTRY YARD.

Forcing egg production is dangerous.
Women become the most successful
poultry keepers, from the fact that
they are careful and have love for
the work.
Peter Tumbledown is convinced that
his hens are not OF the egg type. He
always keeps a lot of corn before them
and yet they do not supply him with
eggs.
Good time to have pot-pie now.
Draw on the supply Of roosters and
keep drawing till they are all weeded
out. The chickens coming on now
should furnish your stock for the COM
ing season.
When the chicks weigh couple of
pounds, send them to the market.
You will get more for them then. in
proportion to the cost of growing.
than at any other time. The next
pound will draw more heavily on your
pocketbook. and the price will be more
likely to tumble.-Farm Journal.

Method with Pole Beans.

Here Is method Of treatment for
pole beans: When they get as high
as bush beans the runners are cut on.
The plants then form bush, but re.
tain the productivity Of the pole bean.
They also mature earlier No poles are
needed, So 1t is said. At least 1t Is
worth while to try dozen or so OF
hills. Pole beans are more productive
than the bush varieties, especially the
Limas. The objection to them Is the
poles. They would be much more CON-
monly planted were 1t not for this.

LONDON, June 17.--London Is assured
ly becoming very temperate. Hotel pro-
pretors, Of late years have been lament
ing the great decrease in the consumption
Of wines, and now 1t appears that the
old custom Of drinking at bars Is going.
In the West End. at any rate, the DIS
appearance OF one Of the largest most
magnificent and most popular bars IN al
London, the Criterion, In Piccadilly, has
been one of the wonders Of the week
and the cause Of great rejoicing amongst
temperance reformers.
The man about town would as soon
have expected Piccadllly Circus itself to
be Improved off the face OF the earth
as the Criterion bar-yet It has gone, un-
honorcd and unwept.
Its disappearance marks the progress OF
a peaceful revolution III the habits OF
Londoners, which will please the admir- 'lrli'
ers Of the Continental way OF SUI supplying
refreshments.
.The day Of the bar is over said the
manager of the Criterion restaurant
3nMen no longer want to stand up at
bar merely to drink, and am not sorry
the bar has gone. Men OF good Grass
would no longer frequent It, SO We have
swept 1t away. It's place will be taken
by restaurant drinking The par rs
doomed in the West End Of London.
"In the last twenty-five years drinking
has decreased quite fifty per cent. Men
now prefer a place where they can eat

adopted the little table system. u
AS an Interesting corolary to this. there
was issued yes terdaY an official report,
showing an Extraordinary falling off in
the amount of spirits consumed per head
in this country.
