old Marriaoe laws.

In former days the Cherokees pro-
vided by the act Of their legislature
that white men and foreigners desiring
to marry indian citizens by blood we're
required to present a certificate from
me county clerk where the white man
or foreigner last resided, that he was a
good citizen and man Of moral stand
ing in the community In which he re-
sided that he would present a petition
commencing that the clerk issue a
license to him TO marry a Cherokee
Delaware or Shawnee woman; that
said petition had to be signed by at
least ten reputable citizens of the Cher
okee nation, and upon complying with
these conditions and paying the clerk a
fee of SO a license was then issued 10
te white man or foreigner 20 marry a
Cherokee. Delaware or Shawnee Indian
woman. AT one time the legislature
provided that by paying $500 for the
license the white man or foreigner
would be entitled to all the rights and
privileges Of a Cherokee by blood, but
this act, after two or three white men
had complied with 1t, was repealed and
the old law still stands White women
who married Cherokee husbands are
claiming the same rights that white
men who married indian women claim.

THE HoME.soL AND

TIE sTREET-BoY.
Curfew means that small boys should
be home Still long after that may
be seen groups Of small boys on the
streets with sometimes the centre, rs
ure Of the group smoking cigarette.
The cigarette is bad. 1t is health-de-
stroying. but that is not the onlT bad
thing about the group. The boys may
in the main be good average boys. but
will they remain so If left to roam the
street at night with company OF their
own choosing? Experience, and very
sad experience at that, hardly iusti-
hes the assumption that they win.
Home and mother may stil be and
always remain dear to such boys, but
little closer patronage of the domes-
tic hreside viii relieve the necessity
for many a bitter regret in future The
home-boy and the street-boy are two
separate and distinct individuals.
Good citizenship needs more home
boys. Vice wants more street-boys.
A boy needs play, but he needs his
mother, too, when night comes, and
the mother needs her boy and society
needs mother and son at home to-
gether when the day is done.

There are men who thrill with patri-

The patriotism Of the ballot is more

MEAT DIET MAKES MUSCLE.
Portland Paper Tells of Carnivor
OuS Rooster

The story of the Pendleton rabbit
that loaded up on whisky
wheat and then whipped two coyotes
is old, but the tale of the Albina car
nivorous rooster is new. According
to a Michigan avenue fancier he has
such a ret, says the Oregon Daily
Journal. The fancier relates that he
gave his flock a ration of ground bone
and lard renderings for a change, and
followed this with a basket or two of
raw meat. There was one small and
discouraged rooster in the flock that
had never had chance, he had been
dwarf, and from his early infancy
had been whipped by everything on
the ranch from the bantam rooster
TO the matronly old dominick, who
spanked him on general principles.
Up to the time the raw meat ration
was introduced the withered rooster
stood in a fence corner by the hour,
and with dropping feathers and
bloodless wattles apologized for liv-
ing.
But when the meat ration was fur
nished a change came over his being.
For several days he pecked away at
the smaller fragments left him by
the flock. Then gradually he began
to walk boldly into the thick of the
gormandizing biddies and to take his
share, without asking the permission
of the lords of the flock. The moth
erly dominick was the first to test
his new found metal, and she receiv-
ed the surprise of her short life when
the dropping rooster chased her to
the woods.
Then an aged cock of Leghorn va
riety "butted in," and also wildly but
ted out. The bantam was taken
on" and demolished, and the mighty
Buff Cochin lasted a round and a
quarter. The lordly Black Minorca
flew over the fence to get away, and
the last warrior a trained game,
came near meeting his ultimate fate
before he squeezed under the netting
and ran away.
Today a wild-eyed, battle-breath-
ing, defiance rooster lords II
over an Albina flock and only by feed
ing wheat instead of meat can the
owner keep him from wanton murder

two hours. Lift them out and spread
the oats out to dry.
How to Dry Seed.
Spread it out on a clean floor. If
the floor to be used has been con-
taminated with smut, scald it clean
convenient, the grain may be dried
by spreading 1t on a clean canvas
stretched between four posts, or laid
on the ground. If the weather is
very favorable, II may be possible to
dry 1t in the sacks. Care must be
taken to see that the grain dries, or
the experience of one Eastern WASH
ington farmer may be repeated. For
some reason his grain was not dried
out, and in a few days it had heated
and nodded and its vitality was con-
siderably affected. The grain may,
however, lie in sacks a few hours in
any kind of weather without injury.
Treatment by Sprinkling.
Make up the formalin solution a
little stronger, using one pound of
formalin for each As gallons of water.
Spread the grain out on a clean floor
| (cleaning it by scalding If necessary.
Put down six to 10 bushels. Sprinkle
it with the solution from a watering
can or with a broom while the grain
is being vigorously shoveled. See that
every grain is thoroughly wetted. As
soon as this lot is wetted throw 1t
aside into pile and throw down an
other lot. Continue till all is treated.
When all is finished cover with wet
sacks and leave it in the pile two
hours. Then spread it out to dry as
described above.
The soaking method is perhaps
safer than the sprinkling for there
is less danger of any grain escaping
unwetted with live smut upon them
The sprinkling method is. however
effective. II carefully carried out.
Care OF Seed After Treatment.
One of the most important points
in the whole matter is the care Of
the seed after treatment. If thi'
grain which is now clean is put intC
dirty sacks, or into anything which
is covered with live smut, it will agar
be infected and the treatment will
be useless. After treatment use hev
sacks or see that the old ones are
cleaned by boiling. Wash out you
seeder thoroughly with boiling watei
and see that it is kept clean from
smut.

Treatment by Soaking.

, Make a large tight watering trough.
The size will depend upon the amount
of grain to be treated at zone time,
A trough IL feet long, two feet wide,
and two feet deep, will treat more
than 20 bushels of wheat at one
the year round as a water trough and
will then be in good condition for
treating seed when needed. If you
have two troughs and a great deal
of wheat to treat use them both.
Make up the formalin solution at the
rate of one pound of formalin to so
gallons of water. Do not make 1t
stronger than one pound of formalin
to As gallons of water. or you may
kill your wheat. Partly fill the
trough with this solution.
How to Treat Wheat.
Pour or shovel the wheat slowly
from the sacks into the trough, 10
that the wild oat grains and the smut
balls will separate out and float. Let
a helper skim these off at once while
you are putting in the wheat. Get
ting rid of wild oats is usually worth
n CcHl " lWO d " tilC ldi
Add more solution and more wheat
till the trough is nearly full. Let the
wheat remain in the trough with
enough of the solution to keep II
covered for at least one and hall
and better two hours. Shovel 1t out
and dry it. Fill in more solution to
make up for that which is carried off
with the wheat and repeat the pro-
cess. The solution can be used over
and over again If it is not allowed
to stand too long. Perhaps "a hours
is the limit of safety.
How to Treat Oats.
Oats can not be treated loose. fol
they will float Put the oats in the
trough in half filled sacks, churnine
each sack up and down to be sure
that every grain is thoroughly wetted
Let them remain covered by the So
luton for one and half or better
