About six years ago, a farmer
moved from a rented farm on to
one in the district where this factory
is situated. When he was on the
first farm he thought he was doing
exceedingly well if he drew from the
factory $S5 a month After he had
been sending his milk to our factory
for about a couple of months, he
came to me and said "Mr. Eager,

said, Very we'll; do you mind

He replied, 81 want to buy some

quoted herewith display some homely
philosophic thought.

Remember the Birds,

The best friends of the fruit grow
er are the birds, and their welfare
should be looked after more than it
is. We have heard of men so ignor-
ant that they would wage war on
their feathered friends, kill them by
the score, and allow the bad boys to
destroy their nesting places. The in
telligent, up-to-date fruit grower,
however, is trying to court the good
will of his feathered friends and is
trying by every means possible to
make his place their home. We were
noticing one day the wild black cher
ries in the forest were laden with
their wealth of fruit, and how the
birds were feasting in the tree tops.
Why would IL not be a good plan for
the fruit grower who wants to pro-
tect the few cherries that his birds
might want, to plant few of these
and a few Russian mulberries about
his place? These trees are heavy
annual bearers and would furnish
abundant feed for these noble song
sters and friends.-Farmers Tri-
bune.

habits of the highest apes, who, in
seven years of solitary wandering in
lonely mountains, has forgotten the

acute sense of hearing and the tree

man possessed.
She is widow of a wealthy mer-
chant OF Geneva. Some time before
her husbands death she deserted
their luxurious home in this city and
vanished utterly. Some whispered that
she was jealous of a certain opera
singer. Others gossiped that she
gambled and had contracted debts of
which she dared not tell her husband.
Again, 1t was said that for her &C.

Inc Divine Purpose for Us.-Eph.
4. 11-1e.-studies in Christian Ex
perience.
Passages for reference: Acts 90.
2S-32; Rom. -. l, ,; Eph. ). 26, 81.
God has purpose in human lives,
and we do well only when we
try to realize that purpose in our ex
periences. Ephesians gives to us the
exalted purpose which our heavenly
Father has for us. 1t seems from
this reference that he has taken into
account our associated life, and so
has bestowed upon men different pow
ers that each without the other should
not be perfect, and that in working out
our life purpose we should each be
inspired by n spirit Of mutual help
fulness. Perfect manhood after the
pattern is the ideal before each one
of us.
The first two verses Of the twelfth
OF Romans are a wonderful appeal TO
men 30 present the whole being in
subsection to the Transforming power
Of the Spirit OF God in order that his
perfect will may be wrought out.
The high aim that God has for his
whole church is declared in Ephes-
ians. That he might present to him.
self a glorious church, not having
spot or wrinkle, or any such thing;
but that 1t should be holy and with
out blemish. " If 1t is such, then
the perfection must be In the individu-
al members.
The Bible is not an announcement
of some ethereal thing that has no
possibility OF tangible existence. 1t
simply declares what can be made
reality. 1t tells a man what he may
have If he meets the conditions. 1t
tells us what Christ has already done
for us. 1t tells us how to make the
thing done in our behalf an actual
reality in our lives. The word pro-
claims great truths and talks of wond-
erful things, as peace, and pardon, and
growth, and holiness. 1t tells us
what we may have and how we may
get 1t.
Bible Truths are to be experienced.
Many a finespm theory OF men has
never been reduced to practice. It
has never been embodied in life. But
tn truth of Scripture can be exper.
fenced. The power of Christianity is
not In the theory but In the expert
ence.

Packing Poultry.

Every bird should be thoroughly
cooled before packing for shipment.
1t takes longer to entirely remove
the animal heat than the uninitiated
would believe, but il it is not done
thoroughly the stock is very likely
to spoil in the package. Much loss
is caused by negligence at this point.
Never let the dressed stock freeze,
unless 1t is to be retained for some
time and sold as frozen stuff. Thaw-
Ing Injuries the quality and decay
soon follows. Birds shipped without
Ice should be entirely dry before
packing.
Careful grading of stock designed
for the open market is very import
ant. A few scrawny or badly torn
birds will often spoil the appearance
of shipment which would otherwise
be excellent, and lower price must
be accepted. Keep the inferior stock
separate from that which is desirable.
Each grade will sell to better advan-
tage If kept separate from the rest.
Inspect each bird carefully before
packing. Wash the feet, remove the
clotted blood from the mouth, and
wash the head. Sew up any bad tears
in the skin, using fine white thread
Tor this purpose. A curved needle is
more convenient for this work than
a straight one.
Birds which have dark or dingy
appearance can often be greatly
frightened by washing in a strong
suds made of some good soap or
washing powder. Water fowl in par
ticular can be much improved by
special cleaning. An ordinary hand
brush is convenient to use for this
purpose.
Packages for dressed poultry vary
greatly, but should meet two require
ments. They must be neat and clean
and small enough to permit easy
handling. For delivery to retail GUS
toners pasteboard boxes of sufficient
size to hold single bird, or one pair,
are desirable. The birds should be
wrapped in clean paper, preferably
waxed paper, before being placed in
the box. Retail egg customers, whose
supplies are shipped by express, may
be served with dressed poultry by
using an egg case built like the
standard case, one end being used
Tor eggs and the other fitted with a
metal box in which to place the birds.
In warm weather sufficient ice may
be included to insure arrival in good
condition.
Barrels of various sizes are popu-
lar packages, especially when ice
must be used. Pack them with alter
nate layers of ice and birds. the bot
tom and top layers being invariably
ice. Upon the top place a good-sized
piece OF ice, which will melt, causing
the ice water to continuously trickie
down through the layers of birds be-
meath. Cover the top with a piece of
burlap, fasten this by means OF a
hoop. Cases may be filled with ice
and dressed poultry in the game man
ner, and In some respects are prefer
able to barrels. Burlap tops should
be used on cases of iced stock, as well
as on iron barrels, as all packages so
covered will be kept right side up
