where Church and Circus Meet.

"On one point at least the church
and the circus touch common
ground" said a clerk in the Naturali-
cation Bureau. Each member of a
circus performers family and each
member of a country preachers fam
lily claims a different birthplace.
Very often families consisting of
grown-up brothers apply for citizen
ship. In most cases they are poor
people whose parents certainly could
not afford to be globe trotters, and
all the children were born in the
same village or town. But once in
a while l meet three or four or maybe
five or six brothers each of whom has
first seen the light in a different
place. In a case of that kind my first
question is:
Parents in the circus?'"
Usually they were. If not, l
guess again.
Church, I ask, and that time I
hit it. Funny, isn't it, that of all in
situations only the church and the
circus produce professional wander
ers?"-New Yrok Press.

Practical Poultry Points.

A cool, airy scratching shed is bet
ter than a dark, closed house for the
day room.
There is no foundation for the as
sertion that the sweet, rich flavor"
of the egg belongs to the breed. That
condition can only be brought about
by the quality of the food.
Bad cases of feather eating have
been cured by painting around the
bare places on hens that have had
their feathers plucked with a prepar-
alton made of powdered aloes dis
solved in alcohol. Hens do not like
the bitter taste.
Board floors in the chicken house
are better than wet ground, but dry
ground is best of all.
Vegetables of some kind should be
fed the poultry the year round, cab
bage, potatoes, beets, turnips, etc.
Shredded alfalfa, which costs about
two cents per pound, is a fine green
food where yards to provide the
same fresh are not available. 1t can
either be fed dry in boxes or scalded
then added to a one-third bran mash
feed thus once a day.
