Tons of Iron Stolen by BOYS.

-Four boys are locked up in the police
station at Trenton for looting the brick
yard of II. c. Kafer & Co., carrying
away, among other things, several tons
of iron. including the huge doors of the
brick kilns. The boys are Peter Scott
and Peter Schriber, aged sixteen, and
William ShOrk and Frank Scott. aged
fourteen. They live in the neighbor-
hood OF the brick yards, and played in
the buildings, which are not used dur
Ing the winter months. When work
men went TO the yards to prepare for
the spring work the robbery was dis
covered. Twenty-four iron doors were
taken by the boys and sold to junk
dealers. A quantity of brickmaking
tools and machinery and a lot Of fancy
bricks were also carted off. The boys
admit stealing nearly everything but
the fancy bricks.

Bear in mind that it takes grit, pa
tlence and Il considerable amount of
gumption to develop a well-trained
horse from a nervous high strung colt.
Stables with narrow doors are apt
to accidents to both man and
beast. 1t costs no more to have them
wide than to have them narrow, and
they are much better.
Probably the brood mare, if she is
good, is the most valuable animal on
the place. There is little danger of
o~verstocking the market for the pres
emf. 1t is nothing uncommon for a
good colt to bring more than the mare
cost.
The scrawny colts sometimes make
good horses; good horses sometimes
have very ordinary colts. Because
they are thoroughbred should not make
them breeders. They should have
qualities themselves.
A horse that is a reasonably good
eater, is very much like a man who
eats reasonably. He does good work
and is not sluggish. Whatever is eaten
that does not go into strength must be
worked off, or go into fat.

How to Dress Turkeys.

We Lave an inquiry from one of our
readers at Senoia, Ga, asking how to
dress turkeys for shipping, and we
shall, in a general way, give sufficient
information to guide one in this matter.
The first thing to do is to find out
just what the market wants, whether
dry-picked or scalded, and whether
wanted with feet and heads on Or
whether drawn or moi.
This information is necessary be-
u markets differ much. and, Of
course, the public must be pleased. If
to be Cry-picked and not drawn the
turkeys must have nothing to eat for
twenty-four before being killed, so that
the crops and stomachs may become
entirely emptied. This is important, as
any food left undigested will surely
sour and spoil the sale of the turkeys.
If head anS feet are to be left on the
turkeys are first suspended by the feet
and killed by pressing a sharp-pointed
knife up through roof of mouth into
the brain.
AS soon as this is done begin to
pluck the feathers from the body and
complete the job rs quickly as posi-
BILE, because after the muscles con-
tract the feathers tighten. Leave the
feathers on up to the first joint OF the
wing and also about two inches on the
head. Wash the beak and feet. but do
not SINCE the body or soil the feathers
on the neck.
Do not remove the crop or in~testines.
Hang the fowls in a cool place until the
animal heat has passed out and then
pack in boxes, laying as many on bot
tom with backs down as can be fitted
in without crushing. Then lay in an
other row, reversing their position, and
so continue until the box is filed. If,
when all are packed. there is still room
in the box, fill it with paper or clean
burlap, so that the turkeys will remain
in their positions as packed.
If the market wants them scalded,
with heads and feet off. they may be
fed up to the time of killing.
Sever their heads with an ak, and
after they have ceased to struggle
plunge them in hot water, scarcely
uOlllHS uOt, lOr Il SuOfC time, just lODS
enough to loosen the feathers. Pick
them clean and remove all pin feath-
ers, but do not singe.~and as o o as
done, plunge them in a tub of cold wa
ter for a few minutes. Then make a
small incision just at point of Shout
der and remove the crop; then one
just below the legs. AND remov in
testines and gizzard. Wash all the
blood from the inside and clean and
wash the liver and gizzard and return
10 inside. Cut off the feet and push the
ends of the legs through the opening
made to remove intestines. Pull the
skin over the end of the neck and tie
it with a small string. Let them cool
thoroughly and pack as before stated.
If there are large and small turkeys,
pack the large ones or bottom and the
small ones on top, but be careful never
to pack them until cooled. Be care
full not to tear or brrise the flesh. as
the sale of many good fowls is spoiled
by poor dressing.-Home and Farm.

Town in War on Bay Rum,

A public movement to Danish bay
rum from all barber shops has been
begun at Holyoke, Mass. Local scien-
lists have discovered, so they declare,
that the skin absorbs the alcohol in
the bay rum when it is applied to
the face, thus causing a thirst for rum.
They say one indication of this is the
haste with which men fresh from the
hands of the barber hurry to the near
est sample room" 1t is demanded
that water only shall be Used hereafter
in the barber shops. and the BARRIERS
say they are glad, as they will save
money.

The meaning of Conservation.

There is an old Dutch picture of a
little child dropping a cherished toy
from its hands, and at first sight its ac-
ton seems incredible, until, at the cor
ner of the picture the eye is attracted
to a white dove winging its fight to-
ward the emptied outstretched hands.
Similarly we are prepared TO forego i
good deal when once we catch sight of
the spiritual acquisitions which beekon
to us. And this is the true way TO
reach conservation and surrender. Do
not ever dwell on the giving up side,
but on the receiving side. Keep i'll
