We are wont to speak of this era
rs the "age of iron." and there is no
Bainsaying that. industrially speaking,
Iron is a precious metal"
Nevertheless. few people realize
how useful, If not absolutely neces-
sary, to modern civilization, is that
other metal, lead. Soft, yielding.
pliable, it is not much like its sister
metal, but those distinguishing quail
ties are what give it such a prominent
place in the arts and industries.
Modern plumbing, requiring many
turnings and twistings, but withal
tight joints, would be almost impos-
sible without lead pipe. The great
est civillzing agent in the world-the
printing arts absolutely dependent
on lead. Hand-set type, linotype
'slugs," monotype type all are
made of compositions of which lead
Is the chief component-to say moth
ing of the bearings in the presses as
well as all other kinds of machinery
in which "babbitt" metal is used.
Solder is another lead product
what field of usefulness that one
form opens up.
Then there is the most important
use of all to which lead is put--paint,
that necessary material which keeps
our houses looking pretty - inside
and out-and preserves them from
decay.
How many Of us thank metallic lead
for the comforts of paint? Yet the
best house paint is nothing but me-
tallic lead corroded by acid to white
powder known as white lead" OF
course, there are many limitations of
white lead" some of which are sold
as white lead and some which are
offered by the name Of ready-pre-
pared paint under the familiar pre-
tense that they are ''just as good" as
white lead. But all good paint is
made of the metal, lead, corroded and
ground to fine white powder and
mixed with linseed oil.
White lead is also used in the coat
ing of fine oil cloths and for many
purposes besides paint.
Red Lead is another product of
metallic lead and is what is, known as
an oxide of lead, being produced by
burning the metal. Red lead is the
best paint known to preserve iron,
steel or tin, and is used largely in
painting metal structures, such as
skyscraper skeletons, mills and
bridges.
There are many other products Of
the metal lead, such as litharge,
orange mineral, etc, which are es-
sential to many of the arts in which
we never imagine that lead would be
of the least use.
Verify, we live in an age Of lead
as well as of iron.

START RIGHT.
Success in the Poultry Business AL.
most Entirely Dependent Upon II.

In poultry raising it pays to start
right. 1t is easier to start right than
to make things right after wrong
start has been made. However, few
start right because it is easier to start
wrong than right. The man or woman
that is going into the chicken business
and begins by buying out neighbor
that has a lot of lousy fowls is making
very bad start, says the farmers
review. He will find he has taken
upon himself the carrying on of war
fare that will have no end. Unless his
poultry house is unusually we'll built,
he will find it extremely difficult to
get rid of the lice after he has &C.
CURED them. We know Of man that
prided himself on the fact that he had
flock of poultry in which lice had
not been. He found it easy to keep
the lice and diseases away. But in
an evil hour he purchased a dozen
fowls from neighbor that wanted to
move away and wo I'D sell out cheap.
The purchased birds introduced both
lice and mites into the poultry estab-
lishment and caused an amount of
trouble far in excess of the value Of
the purchased birds. Therefore, to
purchase such an aggregation of fowls,
lice, mites and diseases is hardly the
way to make right start.
person in making a start in poul.
try culture should endeavor to make
an absolutely clean start. The entire
establishment should be perfectly free
from diseases and from any insects
that infest poultry. We believe that
If there are no insects there will be
little or no disease. Without doubt
insects often help the spread of dis
eases. 1t is best to use the greatest
precautions in commencing, and to
start clean If possible. Every bird
should be thoroughly washed with
soap suds The showmen wash their
birds so thoroughly that if an insect
were on them it could not live. They
hold their birds over a pan of water
and work the soap suds into every
part of the coat of feathers. When the
birds are dropped they are as clean as
it is possible for birds to be. That is
the condition they should be in when
they are put into the new poultry
house and new yard that are the be-
ginning of new poultry establish.
ment. In that condition they will not
continue the races of mites and lice
that are annually such a drain on our
finances; for it must be recognized
that lice and mites cost great deal
of money by reducing the vitality of
the poultry.

His Scheme Worked.

1t is related that certain man was
recently very sad because his wife
had gone out Of town on a visit,
which she would not shorten in spite
of his appeals to her to come home.
He finally hit upon plan to induce
her to return. He sent her a copy OF
each of the local papers with one item
clipped out, and when she wrote to
find out what 1t was he had clipped
out he refused to tell her.
The scheme worked admirably! In
less than a week she was home to
find out what 1t was that had been
going on that her husband didn't want
her to know about.-Pittsburg Press.

FIGHTING CHICKEN LICE.
Various Ways of Getting Rid of the
Pests and Keeping Rid of Them.

Sheep dip Is fine for lice on chick
ems, when one can give them the prop
er care after they have been dipped.
If one has not good place for them
to dry In, crude carbolic acid is much
safer. If the lice are bad, paint every
crack around the roosts once a week
with the acid two or tire hours before
the chickens go to bed. After you
have the lice under control, once a
month will be often enough.
During the hot weather once a week
take bucket of hot suds, add two
tablespoonfuls of the acid and thor
oughly mix in one pint of sifted air
slaked lime. With an open nozzle
spray pump spray every crack in the
house that cannot be reached with the
brush.
In the nests, says the Farm and
Home, place nest egg, which has
been made by breaking an egg in
halves. Fill each half shell with plas-
ter of paris mixed with water. Press
firmly together and after they have
hardened soak an hour in crude car
bolic acid. Repeat this every month
as the acid loses strength.
Line the nest boxes with tarred
paper and you won't be troubled with
lice in the nests. 1t makes pretty

roosts crude petroleum is the best
thing. Put on good coating with a

States of Brazil,

Politically, Brazil is divided into 81
states Gncluding the federal district
but so unequal is the division that
three of these embrace practically her
entire lowlands, as well as a portion
of the western uplands, and exceed
in area the remaining Is, which lie
within the highland region, except
for their narrow margins upon the
coast. These latter, however, contain
more than 90 per cent. of the popula'
