Care of the Fowls.

Eggs are what we want, they
mean profit; so treat the hens well,
keep them warm and we'll fed and
they will show their appreciation IN
return.
Why not have the poultry feed IN
the poultry house or near when the
weather Is bad?
Give plenty Of gat'-r laying fowls
REQUIRE 1t and or vsfy cold days the
chill should be taA Of.
Keep the hens active, a lazy hen Is
never a laying one. Gut straw, hay
or dry leaves should be scattered on
the floor of the run and grain feed
should be thrown in this. 80 that the
hens will be kept scratching,
Although the fowls need the fresh
air and sunshine, they should not be
allowed to 60 out doors while there
is snow on the ground or In any way
be exposed to raw, windy weather.
The result would be loss OF eggs.
Laying hens need something to
take the place of the bugs they pick
up during the summer, Cut bone
answers this purpose very nicely.
Meat of some kind Is a necessity
for the best results with laying hens.
Remember, air the poultry house
every day and also keep 1t clean, It
Is as necessary as feeding the fowls.

Topographic Flaps OF
The Geological Survey

How many people would like a

many who would fad convenient
such a possession. To the people
of many districts in the United
States such map-accurate, de-
tailed, and of moderate size-is
available for The small sum of five
cents.
The U. S. Geological Survey is
making topographic>map OF the
United States. This work has been
in progress siuce 1882, and about
$40 of the area ofthe country has
been covered. The surveyed dis
tricts are widely scattered through
out the country. When the atlas
is finally completed, every citizen
of the United States may procure a

meridians. The four cornered di
vision of land corresponding to an
atlas sheet is called quadrangle.
The sheets are approximately Of
the same size, the paper dimensions
beng 20xl69 inches. Three scales
however, have been adopted. The
largest scale of nearly l mile to ]

country. For the greater part OF
the country an intermediate scale
of about 2 miles to / inch is EN-.

scale of about a miles to one inch
has been used in the desert regions
of the far west. A few special
maps on larger scales are made OF
limited areas in mining districts.
The features shown on these
maps may be classed in three
groups: (1) water, including seas.
lakes, ponds, rivers and other
streams, canals, swamps, etc; III
relief, including mountains, hills.

was even considered an attractive
exhibition of dependence. 10 day
we pardon lack of nerve and self
possession in a woman about as lit

rides and shoots has taken the place
of the girl who used to shrek and
faint. No small factor in bring

been the campaign carried on by
