All women work; some in their
homes, some in church, and some in
the whirl of society. And in stores,
mills and shops tens of thousands are
on the never-ceasing treadmill, earning
their daily bread.

laws; all suffer alike from the same
physical disturbance, and the nature of
their duties, in many cases, quickly
drifts them into the horrors of all

WHY CRY Farmers Fall.


An anxious city man writes that he
is earning nearly $50 a week in his
city work and asks IL it would be a
wise move for him to throw up his
Job, move onto a farm and go into debt
about $1,000. Here is a case, where
we can advise strongly in the negative.
The unfortunate part of the proposition
is that the man in question says he is
able to ave but little money. This be-
ing the case he had best do some rigor
Gus pruning ON the expense side of his
affairs. Many men are similarly locat-
ed in a large city. but within daily
reach of his business, though few of
them enjoy such an income.
In similar cases 1T would be an ex-
cellent plan to buy a smaller farm near
some live town and within easy reach
of the city so that he could go back
| and forth daily. Keep the city posi-
| ton, move the family on to the farm
and use a portion of the income to hire
a good farmer to run tho place. This
| can be done, and If he and his family
are fairly economical, he will find his
weekly salary will readily cover all
expenses, assuming that the farm yields
no income, which would be a suppo-
sition hardly fair. This plan would
enable him to have a general supervis
ion of the farm night and morning, his
family would be healthier and happier
and soon the farm would yield a fair
income. A young friend, on a salary
of $50 a week, is doing this same thing
and is paying for his farm out of its
returns, together with the saving from
his salary over previous expenses. 9th

The hen more than a year old is

this Is so is not known. The pullet
produces the winter eggs. but as she
gets older her season of egg production
is later. If the egg market in the

will not pay to winter the old hens, so

management, but one of being gov

Exhibitors at the international have

Poultry Respond to Care.

Most poultrymen are familiar with
the rule of one of the veterans of he
business who. when asked how to ham
die fowls during the winter. replied:
TRY and meet the same conditions that
obtain during the summer when they
are on the range" In other words, pro-
vide grain and green food, animal food,
grit and lime material with plenty of
clean water. as much sun as possible,
"a clean, dry house free from drafts.
The freedom of the range cannot be
supplied, but the scratching shed will
help nightly in that direction.
Be particularly careful that the
houses are dry and that the temporal
ture is comfortable. If the weather
threatens to be unusually cold, prepare
for 1t with added protection in the way
of covering windows and giving pro-
lection by curtains when the fowls are
on the roost. Fowls do not need a
warm house, that is, a house artificial
" heated. but it is necessary that the
temperature be kept as nearly normal
as possible, else the egg supply will be
shut off by a sudden change in the
weather. Care in these respects Will
do much more than is generally real
lied toward keeping up the egg supply
throughout the winter more or less re-
gardless of weather conditions.

BRYAN STOLE POPULIST THUNDER

! Government ownership of rail
roads is not principle brought
forward by the Democrats as a
party. 1t did, however originate
with the Populists. The priuciple
was thus stated in their platform
in 1892. Transportation being a
means of exchange and a public
necessity. the Government should
own and operate in the interests OF
the people," they said The Pop
ulists re-afhrmed the doctrine in
their 1904 platform. The plat
forms on which Mr.. Bryan made
his unsuccessful race for the presi-
dency contained a provision for
"the enlargement of the powers of
the Interstate Commercial Cominls-
sion looking to such a control Of
railroads as will protect the people
from robbery and oppression. In
1904, although Parker was the most
potent factor in the making of the
platform which on the railroad
question said: 1--WE demand an en-
largement of the powers of the In
terstate Commerce Commission to
the end that the travelling public
and shippers of this country may
have prompt and acquate relief for
