THE FIRST AMERICAN LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY
ss AND ITS SIGNIFICANCE.

After London Company had secured its second char
ter 1909 there introduced great many stock
holders; among them the Archbishop Of Canterbury six
bishops twenty ears twenty light lords two hundred
and sevenyfou knights OF the shire and many gentlemen
and merchants making number of stockholders for 1909
1919 reach total OF 1876 While these gentlemen added
very much the social standing Of the they did
add extensively to its financial beerment and equip
The company had already expended something like
eleven million dollars the enterprises and had had
whatever for this expenditure In spite OF the
expenditure Of SUCH large Of and the endurance
Of much suffering and hardship the loss Of hundreds OF
lives there were scarcely than four hundred
settlers in the colony although when Dale first
over there had been much larger population due to the
many adventures who at about the time Under
circumstances it is not to be wondered at that was
exceedingly difficult procure financial support for the
maintenance of the colony In the lottery was
resorted making thus popular appeal to all classes OF

TURKEY BROILERS.
How the PouIts May Sometimes Be
Disposed of to ADVANTAGE.

People living In locations where it
would be very embarrassing to care
for large hocks of roaming turke ys
during the late fall may yet raise large
tlocks of poults to brolcr size and
then dispose of them at Il splendid
profit before they can become nui-
Sancc to the ueighbors, says Mrs. II. T..
Florea in Inland Poultry Journal.
Good prices may now be obtained for
turkeys at any time of the year, the
February, March and April markets
often bringing more satisfactory re-
turns for hens and late small toms
than the holiday markets. In regard to
the selection of breeding stock, the
hens should be strong and healthy, of
medium size. Do not have them alb
normally large. Indeed, | consider
ovcrlarge hens so Improbable that
were | compelled to use either under
sized or unnaturally large females |
would choose the former as giving me
the best chance, for in that case l
could be reasonably sure of eggs and
chicks in numbers. Most of the large
hens produce but few eggs and mostly
infertile.
prefer pullets that will weigh with
out being fat, simply in good laying
condition, about seventeen pounds each
at laying time. Such pullcts will grow
into mature hens of tWcnty-Onc and
twenty-five pounds each, which is the
best weight for profitable hens
The male should not be too large in
proportion to the females of his yard.
If your females are small and YOU wish
to improve your stock, by all means
secure a medium sized male for tie
first year This advice IS worth heed
Ing, as il may save YOU dlSappolht-
mcnt and loss. The male should be Il
cockerel, and if he is pure bred ana
has been bred rlghtthat is, with p!en-
IL of constitutional VigOr-thc offspring
from th,s mating will prove sufficiently
large to Justify you in saving the nice
pullcts to keep over, and then secure 4
large male for the second mating.

he likely to let the cabbagcs all grow
that way.
Sect root again, is never so good rs
when the roots are about two or three
Inches in diameter, and the large tough
roots obtained by sowing early on
heavily manfred soil are fit only for
cattle feeding. \ few rows of bect4
sown now will produce excellent roots
either for use in late summer and au-
tumn or for keeping through the Win
ter, and these are far better in color
and flavor than large. coarse roots.
Asparagus is often sought for with
thick stems, blanched for nearly their
whole length of foot or so, but where
Is the comparison between them and
the nice crisp shoots with green tops
just bursting? The one Is coarse and
lnsipid in flavor, the other delicate. and
tender Besides, the small ones are
easier to grow
Many other instances could be given.
On the other hand. there are some va
rieties that may be good and yet
large. We do not hold brief for
small and badly cultivated produce.
Far from It. There Is nothing worse
than vegetables grown slowly on poor
soil, us they are always tough and
crude in flavor. nor would we decry
size in most kinds II quality at the
same time is kept in mind.
