There is no possible way of de-
termining the sex of eggs. An
eminent poultry authority says
that the best way to determine
whether an egg contains a rooster
or a pullet is to hatch and watch
the chick grow for about four
months. If the chick crows, it is
a rooster. If it lays an egg, it is
a pullet. The American breeder
in years past has been inclined to
worry himself to an unnecessary
degree in an effort to determine a
method of controlling or determ-
lining the sex Of the unborn. This
is a matter entirely too delicate
and too mysterious to be handled
by man, and he will probably new
er know any more about such
things than he knows now.

Corn as Sheep Feed.

Corn is a most desirable feed
for sheep, but there is always a
danger of feeding too much of it..
Fortunately for sheep, corn is
not largely used except in the
fattening of the animals. For
that purpose it is excellent, when
it is used with the proper care.
It contains on the average in the
neighborhood of 60 per cent. OF
starch and 6 per cent, of oil, and
these are in the corn in a form
that is very digestible. Starch
produces animal heat and fat,
and the oil goes into the body
also in the form of fat. The
great heat producing power Of
the starch in corn makes it in
advisable to feed it alone. The
protein is in the corn in a rather
low quantity CON pared with the
fat and starch, and it requires
the feeding with it of some thing
that is rich in protein. This
something may be clover hay or
alfalfa hay. It is good plan to
feed about the same weight of
clover hay and corn to sheep at
the fattening period This gives
the nutriment in the body in pro-
portion to the requirements OF
growth. -Drover's Journal.

Young Girls Beware.

A young girl errs once and the
doors of human kindness and
love are closed against her. But
we reach the betrayer our hands
and bid him welcome to our
homes; we court and fatter him,
and sacrifice cur darling daught-
er to his libertinish greed, for is
it not a sacrifice of love, purity
and everything worthy to wed
such a one? Does God ever smile
upon such a union? If either be
stunned, why not the betrayer
of youth. and innocence, rather
than the one who has been wrong
ed so grievously? We know that
lips will curl with scorn, and
society will sheer if we reach our
hands to the outcast, but God and
the Angels will be glad. and if a
soul be thus saved, what matter
their sneers. Mountain Advo-

The Passing Of Gen. Stewart.

Further and further the Civil
War and its protagonists retreat
into the shadows Of the past.
Present generations feel a direct
contact with the great event and
its figures because of the persons
living who witnessed or took
part in the history making in
cidents. In a few more years all
who lived during the trying days
will be forever gone and then
the story of the Civil War must
be got from books. The printed
page and not the spoken word
will be the instructor and inspir-
alton of youth. The battles will
be simply recorded history. The
men will be tradition. The per-
sonal side will drop off and be
lost. The questions will be cold,
sober problems of politics. Now
comes the death of Gen. Alex
ander P. Stewart to remove one
of the foremost links between
the Civil War and the present.
AS one of the two living Lieuten-
ant Generals of the Confederate
army he was a conspicuous en-
bodiment of Southern valor, SEN
timent and military activity. He
represented in his rank the army
which fought Grant and which
surrendered at Appomattox. By
his service in the war he won the
affection of all whose sympathies
were knit with the Southern
forces; by his services in peace
as a literary worker and college
professor he gained the esteem
of men of all sections. His death
begets widespread lament.
Gen. Simon Bolivar Buckner
remains the one surviving Lieu
tenant General of the Confeder-
ate army. To. this venerable
Kentuckian the nation now looks
as the man who personifies the
South of 1861-'64. At IS he is
the last of a glorious race-Cou-

The Charming Young Maiden Of Old Monticello


Composed and read by Capt John futile at picnic given
the Monticello Lodge and Royal Arch Chapter at Mill Springs
Tuesday August Is, 1908
In a picturesque vale in Wayne's fair domain,
Meath the sentinel peaks of old Cumberands chain
Mid bright winding and bold gushing fountains.
Cleans Old Monticello, the Gem of the Mountains.
In it's sumptious homes, mid cool shady bowers,
Astounding in fruits bright birds and sweet flowers,
There's yet an adornmen more lustrous than pearls,
Our city's fond PRIDE it's beautiful girls.
And the specimen girl of this city of ours,
type of those fruits, those birds and those flowers
She smacks of the flavor and beauty of each,
Now lark then daisy and again she's a peach
But for brightness and beauty don't think for minute
That the bird or the flower is in anywise in it,
And luscious by far than peach ripe and mellow,
Is the charming young maiden of old Monticello.
To the home she's mascot token of love,
And no sweeter blessing came from above
She's it's light and it's JOY all hearts cheering,
genius that lends it charm most endearing
To see her at church meek and demure,
So seraphic in spirit. so guildeness and pure,
And to hear the sweet of her when she SINGS
You'd dub her an angel and endow her with wings.
When daintly tripping along on the street,
So 1.-the and so graceful, so lovely and sweet,
She enraptures and captures the chaps who behold her.
And less enchanting to those who older.
On an outing for pleasure she's just in her glory
And as no earthly creature of legend or story,
Was ever so bithesome, elish and airy,
You'd be prone conceive her nymph fairy.
This bright moving picture, this creature of light
This deectabe poem, this fairy or sprte
This quaint apparition whatever its makeup,
Does sure give our hearts ecstatical shake-up
At church or at home seeking pleasure,
She's at each and all places gem and treasure.
For more precious than rubes gold bright and yellow
Is the charming young maiden of old Monticello
And riding or driving standing or sitting,
Or like bithe bird here and there fitting,
No creature on earth so entrances fellow,
AS the charming young maiden of old Monticello
Bless the dear girls may their hearts be as light,
AS unfraught with and their spirits as bright
And in orns dewey freshness kind heaven keep them
Till Cupid shall smte them and Hymen shall reap them

got no satisfaction went directly to
