POULTRY POINTS.

The cheapest and most economical
food raised on the farm is the poultry,
No breed is so fine that you can

Feed enough coarse food. 1t pro-
notes digestion and helps to keep the
fowls healthy.
In providing nests see that they are
SO located that they are handy bott

When it comes to raising turkeys,
Texas takes the lead. Then follow
Missouri, Illinois, Iowa and Ohio.
Don't sell the eSgs from your best
pens in the market when you nave a
surplus. Sell them to people Who Will
paw the price they are worth. You can
find purchasers through lhe co1ui'1hs

Drinking vessels of all kinds should
be arranged so that the fowls cannot
get into them with their feet. II Moth
ing else can be done. they should haVe
a board cover, large enough to ave

An old belief, and one that is still
more or less credited, is that the pres
ence of The male is necessary for good
egg production. This Is wrong. On
many of the large egg farms no males
are Used at all. Some even claim that
hens lay better without ROSTERS, but
this is at best an unsettled question.

HOW MUCH CAN THE
BUSINESS GIRL EARN?

put up SO that 1t makes a pretty frame
for the face, and still has no stray ends
and scolding locks to detract from Its
neatness. Waists and skirts must have
their ~fastenings perfectly adjusted, and
any portion OF the workday dress
be kept fresh and immaculate. Soiled
linen of any description is quite for
eign to the well ordered business Office.
and the average girl who makes a
success in her work is she who never
starts for business until he presents
q perfectly groomed appearance.
Welding all together, the value which
a girl makes herself to her employer
determines finally how large her salary
shall be- In office hours she must de-
vote her undivided attentions to his in
terests. Her duties may be cut short
the moment 4, s or 6 o'clock arrives,
but all thought Of her own affairs
should be banished the instant her
days work begins.
Having discussions, little aside con-
%versations or interests foreign to the
business of the day with those who
may be working beside her invariably
shows in the laxity Of her own service.
The positions are scarce where a glrl
a take time to write personal letters,
or do embroidery, or read chapters from
her latest library book The minutes
which some girls use for these purposes
are the spare minutes in which a girl
should find small ways of serving her
employer. The lazy girl answer this
by saying she earns all the money that
she is paid, but the successful girl
knows she must do just a little more
than she is paid for, or there is some
other girl ready to step in who will.
Another way of being Of value to the
employer is to surmise what he wants,
If possible, before he asks for it. 1t is,
in fact. learning to keep in touch with
his method of working and conforming
to it. It is the keynote to the work OF
the girl who holds her position with
perfect assurity, for the business world

Lyrical Golfers.
From the king.

Aloi llIC IAlI1S.
1t Is very interesting to note how
golfers, when they are gathered togeth-
er in convivial entertainments, seek to
enshrine their golfing memories either
in song or in poetry. Mr.. Ernest Tur-
ner. in singing the song entitled Good
Company" at the Leeds Golf club dir
ner, added this verse:
When I sit in the club at the close of
the day,
And hear brother golfers discussing the
play,
AS they fight Ger again the game they
have had,
And swear that that stymie was rath-
er too bad"
I care not, I know not, where pleasure
may be,
But / know I'm in excellent company.
Rev. H. T. S. Gedge. vicar choral of
York minister, the captain of the club,
conferred pon the members the priv
ilege of hearing an original golf song,
of which the s%ubjoined was the chorus:
Gin we want to be young, and no to
be aud,
That yer bluid may run warm instead
O. deid cauld,

BEET SUGAR INDUSTRY.

The beet sugar industry in the Unit
ed States is growing rapidly and the
states west of the Mississippi river now
produce "a. 900 tor more sugar h
they can consume. In addition to this
east OF the Mississippi 254. 000,0 900
pounds are produced, or equal to over
II per cent. of the consumption of this
same trans Mississippi area. This is
brought out in a report Just issued by
the department Of agriculture on the
domestic sugar production Of the Unit
ed States.
This increase in the Industry is of
much Importance to the people of he
country and to the farmers and raisers
of live stock, since the byproducts
food to such a good advantage. Sugar
beets are adapted to irrigated districts
as well as to other districts where
crops are grown by rainfall. The In
dustry In its development has had a
great influence in promoting irriga-
ton. immigration, land settlement. the
building OF railroads and trolley lines,
the making of other improvements and
the upbuilding OF various industrial en-
terprises.
Only a few years ago the United
States depended almost entirely for Its
sugar supply upon that brought in
from other countries and from that
made from sugar cane. In 1905 there
was produced in the United States
312, 920.60 o of beet sugar grown
upon 307,364 acres. Iowa is to have
two factories this year, as 1t has been
shown that Iowa soils will produce as
good sugar beets as any other section
This new industry should De received
with enthusiasm by the farmers OF
Iowa, as it should by those in other
states where the beet cam be probably
grown. The use of the ~byproducts ir
stock feeding will no doubt increase
the area devoted to beet growing as
much as will the production Of sugar
Where beets can be grown they viii

only one way to cure deafness, and that Is
caused by an infamed condition of the mu.

this tube Is innamed you have q rumblins

unless the Inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to Its normal condi-
