AN ADVERTIS-
ING FORTUNE

A Cincinnati soap manufacturer WHIT
died recently left fortune of $4,000,
900 as a monument to advertising L
was bHilt on printers ink, even more
than soap.
OF course, there had to be honest
merchandise behind the advertising
The soap had to be good Otherwise
the advertisements would have been a
boomerang. They would have de
ceived and angered those who trusted
their promises. Then the business OF
the soapmaker would have died out.
But the soap, without publicity
could never have piled up fortune
of $1O,000,000, or the tenth part of
that sum. Soap is too open to COM
petition. 1t is too old a story with
troll of raw material. 1t must depend
ed by patents or mOnopoliEed by con-
troll Of raw material. IL must depend
on the favor of the public. There
couldn't be more convincing demons
tration of the power of advertising
persistent, shrewd and copious adver-
tising-that the Proctor fortune.
In great part that estate represents
the actual creation of business, and
business altogether beneficial to civ
ilization and mankind, instead of the
mere wrestling away from rivals of
an unusual share OF certain stock OF
trade which someone must get in any
event. Advertising is not simply an
outfit for catching the best fish in the
pond of commerce. 1t is also means
Of enlarging the pond and stocking it
with better and bigger fishes.
The kind of advertising which built
the $10,O00,000 soap fortune in Gin
cinnati increased the use of soap. 1t
did much to make cleanliness seem
more necessary. 1t promotes the

Such advertising is an aid to civil
cation. 1t advances the development

IS profitable.-Cleveland (O.) Leader.

#POULT TRY DEPARTMENT Il
THE FIRST FEEDING OF CHICKS
Julian McKamy. in Southern Poultry Jornal)

When a chick is first Matched il IL
about as soft and mushy a piece Of
animal life as can be imagined. Its
bones and flesh are merely a bag &c
hold the yolk Of the egg from which
it came. This yolk is enclosed whole
in the chicks interior and furnishes
the necessary food for the first few
days. 1t doesn't need any other food ;
indeed, other food is likely TO do ii
harm. And until this yolk has been
entirely dissolved and assimilated by
the chicks sytem, it is better that it
have nothing to eat.
These few days when the yolk is
being digested should be time of pre-
paration for the time when the chick
win need other food For this pur.
pose there is one thing absolutely es-
sential, and that is sand Put a new
ly Matched chick out on the ground,
and before It can run It will be found
picking at the coarse grains OF sand
and small pebbles. This is not due to
hunger, for it is not hungry; but is its
instinct to prepare its grinding appar-
atus and get It In working order.
Some breeders prefer keeping all
water away from newly Matched
chicks, believing It produces bowel
arrangements, but this is very doubt
full Many breeders allow the chicks
water from the start, putting 1t be-
fore them along with the sand and
small gravel as soon as they are hatch
ed We like this plan best They will
drink very little, some Of them refus-
ing 1t entirely, 80 that it can do them
no harm. Placed on sandy floor or
soil with water before them for a
couple OF days and then light feed
has always started them of lively and
strong for us and given them the go
that they need.
When there are SO many excellent
prepared chick feeds on the market,
sold at small cost it is a useless trou-
BILE to prepare food for young chicks.
These chick feeds can be bought in |
the neighborhood of two cents a |
pound, and as the chicks consume
very little of them, the cost is trif
ling matter, unless you raise a great !
many chicks. In this event, you Will /
find them so satisfactory you will be
sure to use one. Besides, the com
mercial chick foods are dry and CON-
posed Of small grains. which do not
spoil II the chicks should overlook
some OF them. Indeed, it Is all the

HOW WASHINGTON
NEGLECTED HIS DUTY

| In the traditions of any member Of
the Washington family the story Of
Martha Gusts is OF supreme impor
lance, writes Cora A. Moore, in the
New Broadway Magazine for May.
1t happened one day that she was
visiting at the plantation of a neigh
Dor, Major Chamberlayne, when there
came riding in haste an officer in the
British uniform. The business that
he had with the major he transacted
quickly, declining an invitation to stay
because, as he declared, he was ON his
way to the governor at Williamsburg
on matters of importance. But the
host repeated the invitation more ur-
gently, slyly remarking that he had
also beneath his roof the handsomest
widow in Virginia, young and charm
ing woman.
All, lady in the case! That was
different. But the plans of men have
often waited on Cupid. When the Of
ficer bowed low over the hand of the
lady whom he met in the majors
drawing room he fofgot Williamsburg
and the Governor. And she, pleased
with the courage of that colonel,
George Washington, of whose military |
fame she had heard so much, scintil-
lated and sparkled with even more
han her usual fascination. That
evening, long after the rest of the
household had retired, he and the
widow sat by the fireplace
n the shadowy drawing room quite
without a chaperone to regulate the
ide of swiftly moving events.
Soon there was a resplendent wed
ing at the home of the bride. Direct
y afterward coach and six horses,
,uided by liveried black postillions,
onveyed the newly married pair to !
er town house in Williamsburg. {

better TO mix some OF II in the sand or
which the chicks are fed, and in this
way the youngsters will learn &C
scratch for them. And exercise is the
life OF anything.
If you can't get good chick feed
then raw oatmeal will be found excel
lent. Sometimes your grocer will have
lot into which a few worms have
found home, and as this is unstable
he will let you have it for a trifie. The
chicks relish it greatly. and as there is
no husk on it, it will answer well.
Stale bread crumbs, where you have
only few chicks, are as good as any
thing. They contain little salt, which
is an advantage, and II they are dry
enough to crumble when rolled in your
hands they can be fed that way. If
they are too dry, little water poured
over them-not much, but just enough
to moisten them-is all right Dip
them once in water and set them aside
till the moisture penetrates through
and through. This isn't so good as
feeding it dry, but will do.
Don't feed raw dough or rough mash
such as you feed large chicks. Raw
dough sours in the crop and brings
on all sorts Of bowel complaints. If
you want to feed this stuff, cook it
we'll beforehand. Well, means through
and Throughout just a hard crust
on the outside and middle soggy, wet
mash; this is as bad as feeding it raw.
Chicks will do well for awhile on a
grain ration alone, but they will do
better if fed little meat from the
first. If the grain ration is dry and
sweet chicks can be fed little green
cut bone from the very first. Just a
little thrown in so that each chick can
get morsel or two, will help won
derfully. If you ever dropped bit of
meat into brooder full of two weeks
old chicks and saw the scramble and
fight over it, you won't doubt that they
needed it.
Cooked meat, cut up very fine, is |
safer and perhaps just as good. But
It is costly. However, cost should be
little considered in feeding chicks for
the first few weeks, as foundation
can be secured well worth many times !
it's cost.
