The Mating of Fowls.

Few things are more worthy of care
ful attention than the proper mating
of poultry. If one. for instance. has n
hock of common hens. it is possible,
by placing them with q thoroughbred
male and securing new cockerel of
the same breed each year. to change
IN three years time all the common
blood to that which is pure and thus
nave flock of pure bred of the male
variety. The way to bring it about is
TO select, according to the egg-record,
the best two-ycar-old hens one has and
then purchase thoroughbred rooster.
nine or ten months old. of such breed
as he desires. The chief point in doing
this is TO keep in mind that the weak
characteristics in the females should
be the strongest in the males. The
next year the most promising pullets
from this mating in shape. color and
other points, should be selected and
placed with another coekerel as be-
fore. The pullets then obtained will
be likely TO grow fast, feather rapidly
and mature early. Accordingly. they
SHOULD De mated, not TO q young rooster
but to thoroughbred cock two years
old of the same breed, though not from
the same breeder MS the others were
purchased. Any reliable breeder who
understands his business can furnish
the right kind of bird If the would
be buyer will only write him, deslgnat-
'ng the shape, color and general charac-
terlstics. of his pullets The results of
this mating should be a lot of very
line poultry, including valuable cock
erels, all of which will find ready
market anywhere at good prices. Thus.
by selecting the nearest standard pull
lets In color, shape and characteristics.
one may carry the grading up still
further year by year and ultimately
have the finest birds that 1t Is possible
to breed.-The Epltomist.

CHRISTIAN ENDEAvOR NOTES
APRIL TWENTY-SEcoND.

The Lords Day; How to Keep II
HoIy.-Luke 6:s-1o; Elk. 2o:s-1t;
Rev. 1918.
Whatever means more and better
life, for yourself and others, Is ap-
propriate to the Day Of the Lord Of
Life.
"Six days shalt thou labor" is Just
as much part of the Sabbath law as
"on the seventh day thou shalt rest"
We are living in Gods Sabbath, His
rest day; and yet how busily He Is at
work. But He is at work for others.
II we have the Lords Day spirit
(Rey. 1;1O) we shall keep the day
In the right way, as no amount Of
rules will enable us to keep it.
Suggestions.
If we keep the Sabbath physically,
1t will keep us physically; and il
spiritually also, we shall also be kept
spiritually.
Christ is Lord of the Sabbath; and
so are we, If Christ dwells in our
hearts.
No one keeps the Sabbath If he
thinks about its prohibitions rather
than its privileges
"Time saved" by Sunday labor is
life lost.
illustrations.
1t has been proved by many expert
ments that workmen who labor seven
days in the week accomplish less, In
the long run, that those that rest on
Sunday.
Sunday is not the weeks dormitory,
but the weeks gymnasium.
Sunday is the day of the sun-new
light, new fire, new life; and the sun
Is the Sun of Righteousness.
Sunday Is bridge over the dark
river of bodily and mental ruin into
which we should fall without it.
Questions.
Am l using Sunday for myself or
for God?
Is Sunday the JOY to me 1t should
be?
Am preparing my self for the end
less Sabbath of heaven?
Quotations.
o day Of rest! How beautiful, how
fair.
How welcome to the weary and the
old!-H. w. Longfellow
We cannot count the treasures of
our Christian Sabbath. It spreads
out over us the two wings of the arch
angel of mercy.-T. Dewitt Talmage.

The best poultry yard for fowls

one In which grass may be sown to
allow the birds plenty of green stuff
TO eat 1t Is advisable to have two
yards, and while the birds are living

is also a good plan to turn the soil in
the yards and the birds will get many
worms and insects. If there are no
trees or shrubs in the yards 1t is very
little trouble to plant a few there. The
hens, and little chicks. especially, will
appreciate them on hot days. 1t is not

If market poultry is chiefly desired

An experienced farmer poultryman
says that the best way to keep poultry
dropplngs is TO put them in a barrel
and keep them slightly moist, using
dishwater or soapsuds where available.
When fenced away from gardens and

Poultry may be raised with the great.

Where one habltually allows other

important that they have vigorous con-
