Managing Pure Breed Poultry for

Ruralist, writing from South Florida,
gives his ideas about poultry raising
as follows:
In beginning poultry keeping for
profit choose from the r. I. Reds,
Wyandottes, P. Rocks or Leghorns the
breed you like best. I prefer the r.
1. Reds because of their beauty and
what is more important, because they
have been bred for many years for
utility only, the fanciers only lately
having begun breeding in for feath-
ers and points. Ones market as re-
CARDS broilers, eggs or roasters would
give slight advantage in favor of a
certain breed. But don't worry about
breeds. Simply choose one and stick
to it. Pay more attention to the
strain than breed. There is a vast
difference in strains of all breeds.
One breed is enough. Get the best
stock you can of the variety you de-
eide on.
The prominent names in poultry
dom are associated most frequently
with one breed. Specialism has it's
advantages in poultry breeding as in
other operations and for the same
reasons Advertise straight through
the year, not systematically a few
times in the spring. Don't hatch
with hens. Buy a good incubator
and follow the instructions you get
with lit. Hatch the American breeds
in April and Mediterranean in May
for best results. 1t is easy to hatch
chicks, but raising them is where the
trouble comes in. [ never put over
70 in a brooder and prefer so. Many
successful poultrymen use hens, put
ting 35 to 40 chicks with each. I feed
nothing but rolled oats the first 10
days, keeping plenty of grit and fresh
water 10y them and have no bowel
troubles. Then a variety Of or. corn,
wheat and soft feed. Newer feed
more than they will eat up clean in
few minutes. Feed 5 times a day
first 10 days, 4 times next ten days
and three times ever after. A begin
ner here can't get the help from poul-
try publica tons that he can where the
business is older and they have learn
ed how to meet their troubles. We
must largely solve our own problems.
The South can produce as good fowls
as any locality and with much small
err investment. They must, however,
be treated with regard to conditions
existing here. The constitution and
habits of poultry are the same every
where.
The variations of temperature and
seasons constitute the difference in
the way which poultry should be
handled. Vigor is first in Importance
and is obtained by the right ancestry,
proper feeding and sufficient shade.
Both vigor and color are much affect
ed by our hot suns. Solid colored
fowls get brassy and parti-colored
ones smoky or clouded. A neighbor
of mine in Mass, raised his barred
Rocks almost entirely in the shade.

and son Of Andrew Carnegie's trust

recently on the jury which tried Nor

Martha S. Kirkpatrick and which
brought In a verdict of murder in the
second degree. During the eleven
days the jurymeR lived together young
Frew taught the jurymen how to
wrestle and he Topped the biggest Of
them until they began to learn his
tricks. He found one farmer who
could not read nor write. He busted
himself between ballots in teaching
the fellow his alphabet, also how to
write his name. He had the whole
eleven jurymen before him doing
gymnastics in order to keep their
health. In return one juryman shaved

Looking Forward With Hope.

There is more trouble ahead for the
automobiles. In FIVE years or there
abouts the question of fuel may be-
come for them very serious one.
Gasoline, for which there has been
such remarkable demand In the last
ten years, is much higher in price
than 1t was when the demand began,
but that isn't the worst feature Of the
case. In a few years there may be
no gasoline or there will be SO little
Of 1t in proportion to the amount
wanted that the price will be prohib-
tive. Alcohol, 1t is suggested, may
come to the rescue, but in order to
get 1t at as low figure as we now
get gasoline 1t will be necessary for
many persons to change their minds.
The internal revenue tax on spirits
must be taken off II alcohol is to be
put on the list of automobile fuels.
And that will come to pass-ever?-

Yarns About Students.

Drunkenness has of late been
charged in England against the stu
dents of the University of Oxford. or
this charge Percival Farrar, an Oxford
man, said in Detroit:
Now and then young men drink
too much at Oxford. but to accuse
them generally of drunkenness fs
quite objectionable and false.
such an accusation is to my mind
absurd, like the accusation of idleness
against the students Of the great Ger
man universities.
Attendance at lectures Is not COM
pulsory In Germany and there are all
sorts of yarns about the students idle
ness. They say that young man in
Heidelberg once approached another
young man and Asked
"Where are the university build
ings?
"The second young man replied:
81 really don't know. am a stu
dent here myself"

Who Had Better Riuht?

Coningsby Disraeli, M. p, having,
on a New Years card to his constitu-
ents, used the emblem Of a crown,
Lord Knollys wrote that 1.-THE king
deprecates the introduction of his
name, or Of emblems appertaining to
him, in political posters or placards.
Instead of kissing the rod, Mr. Dis
raeli claims that he has perfect
right to use the emblem.
Il have" he says, "a perfect right
to put that crown on my card, seeing
that It was@my great. ancestor who.
put an imperial crown on the throne"
1t is possible that the next COM
munication he receives from the
kings private secretary may be less
moderate in tone.-London Star.

FAST TIME IN A NAVY YARD.
British Shipbuilders Have Established
a New Record.

Apart from the many novel features
embodied in the design of the British
battleship Dreadnaught the celebrity
with which she will be built is sure
to establish a new record in con-
struction! Hitherto no battleship Of
any type has been turned out in less
than twenty-five months and even the
standard vessel displaced only $4,000
tons, compared with the $4,000 tons
of the newest ship. The strain of this
high-pressure construction has OF
course been very great, but so far
none Of the officers or civilians en-
gagged has broken down under it, and
so 1t may be their good fortune to see
the great vessel, which they laid down

finished by February, 1907-that is, in
sixteen months from the date the first
keel plate was laid.-New York Her.

Leader Among Lumber Ports.

Portland is the greatest lumber por,
in the world and If there was never
another bushel of wheat shipped from
the city our shipping trade within the
next three years would reach a maxi
mum never approached in the palm
lest days of the wheat trade. There
are now in port loading or under
charter to load for China, Japan, Aus
tralia, South America and Europe
steam and sail vessels with capacity
of more than 2O,OOO,0O0 feet, and for
coast ports there is loading a fleet
with capacity Of 100000 feet. Fol
lowing these vessels, under charter to
arrive from foreign ports, is feet
with a capacity of 100000 feet, and
a coasting feet of 100000 feet ca
pacity. No other port in the known
world can make such a showing as
this in the lumber business. Portland

Biq Guns and Bla Ships.

The war between Russia and Japan
gave modern navies the first extend
ed chance to show what was best in
them. 1t was Togo's great guns
mounted on his most powerful vessels
that pounded to pieces Rojestvensky's
Inflated armada. Anything that came
within their range met destruction.
Europe has quickly learned the les
son taught by the Japanese. England
first started to build the Dreadnaught
of $4,000 tons, which was expected to
be the premier battleship of the
world. Immediately Japan followed
with one Of equal tonnage. Now
comes France with an avowed inten-
ton of constructing three monsters OF
this biggest class, while Germany Is
reported to have changed the designs
of two battleships already ordered Sc
as to bring them up to the Dread
naught type In every respect-Phila-

NotabIes Who Are Little Known.

The true wealth of country is in its
people, its upright. faithful, intelligent
citizens, who face their daily toll
cheerfully, love their homes and
families, are kind and hospitable to
friends and neighbors and ready to
lend a hand to the weak and helpless
everywhere. And the pride Of such a
people is in its men and women who
are eminent for usefulness, for abili-
tA for leadership in intellect and
beneficence, in exploration and dis
covery and invention. There are many
such men who give up their lives to
quiet, patient work for the benefit of
mankind, who never exploit them

nesses-candy eating, cooking strange
dishes and making furniture. During
his examination of witnesses in the
Patrick murder case the district at

stopped abruptly, looked around and
found It had disappeared. A reporter
