The Best Food for Workers.

The best food for those who work
with hand or brain u never high
priced.
The best example of this is found in
Quaker Oats. It stands at the top
among foods that supply nourishment
and vigor, without taxing the diges-
ton, and yet it is the least expensive
food one can eat.
This great food value and low cost
make 1t an ideal food for families who
want to get the greatest good from
what they eat.
Laborers, factory or farm hands, fed
plentifully on Quaker Oats will work
better and with less fatigue than If
fed on almost any other kind of food.
All Of these facts we're proved and
very interesting information about
human foods were gathered by Pro.
fessor Fisher of Yale University in
1908. In addition to the regular pack.
age Quaker Oats is packed in large
sized family packages either with or
without china dishes. 8

MORE WILD BEES THAN EVER
Hunting for Profit Thing 81 Past, Ow-
ing to the Passing Of tho
Great Forests.
(By Thomas NJ, Cisel.)

(By Thomas NJ. Cisel.)
It is commonly thought that with
the passing away Of larger timber the
wild bees would have to go; but such
is not the case. There are more wild
bees to-day than there we're 30 years
ago.
At that time trees had but little
value, and the bee hunter found no
trouble in cutting a bee tree wherever
it was found, and many men followed
bee hunting for profit and pleasure,
and as the bees were most often found
in large rtees with decaying limbs or
trunks they became an easy mark for
the hunter who understood their hab-
its.
Now all cumberland Is under fence
and the cutting of a tree on another
mans land often ends in trouble.
Bee hunting is a thing of the past.
but the bees are here more plentiful
than ever. The old-time colony with
SO and 100 pounds of honey is not
found. They have ben compelled to
use the smaller trees for s~torehouses,
which soon become overstocked and
a new home must be found. Thus the
colonies are smaller and more nu-
merous.
In removing the timber from three
acres of land the owner found nine
trees with bees and honey. OF these
nine trees the largest amount of hon
ey stored was about ten pounds, and
on two of the trees the bees were stor-
ing honey by building it fast to small
twigs outside the hollow in a tree.
The old-time bee hunter knew his
business we'll, and many were tho
ways he had of finding the stored
sweets.

If you have no time yourself, turn
them over to your wife, daughter or
boy. Furnish them a good, warm
building where they can be kept clean:
use judgment in feeding, give a vari-
ETY. of all kinds of grain, not too much

(you will probably be surprised to see
how much water they drink. Give
them the scraps from the table, and
green vegetables, chopped fine, occa-
sionally. The small potatoes boiled
make an excellent feed for a change.
Keep plenty of grit and oyster shells
little charcoal, also. Try this plan for
awhile and keep account of all ex.
penditures and receipts and l am sure
that our poultry will pay.
Don't keep poor stock. It does not

scrubs that weigh from four to five
pounds each. Sell off the old stock
for what they will bring and start in
right with a few full-blooded birds
that you will be proud to see about the
farm. At this season you can buy
first-class stock very reasonably, and
now Is the time to make your start.
Remember that poultry does pay.
Leghorns are good foragers, be-
cause they are light birds and get
about quickly. They roam much far.
ther afield than some of the heav.
Ter breeds. They are thus cheaper to
keep on the farm than some of the
breds that show an inclination to
hang about the barns and sheds and
wait for feeding time. Besides, they
are more useful from the standpoint
of insect destroyers. This Is a mat
ter of considerable Importance in
some years when the g~rasshoppers
are very numerous. The foragers get
a better quality of food than the birds
that depend upon getting grain feed,
for the reason that insects are very
rich in nitrogen. For the general
farm, 1t Is doubtful If any breed ex.
Gel the Leghorns, SO far as looking
out for themselves is concerned.

WORK IN THE POULTRY YARD.

Wet feed in wooden troughs nearly
always produces bowel trouble.
If the young chicks show signs of
gapes, change them to other grounds
at once.
Milk should always be fed in metal
pans that can be washed and scalded
afterward.
Better 60 without q garden than
without chickens IL you have no 9th
er range for them.
More young chickens die from over
crowding in brooders and coops at
night than from any other cause
A very little artificial heat in the
brooder is sufficient, and this should
not be turned on except In cold, damp
weather.
1t costs no more to raise thorough.
bred chicks than scrubs, and the arts.
tocrats will bring four or FIVE times as
much money.
Do not forget that the natural food
of chickens is grain and meat. They
will get their meat in bugs and worms
if they have the opportunity.
The lazy, good-natured hen does not
make as good a mother as q cranky
fighter, provided the latter is not SO
nervous as to keep running about all
the time.
Whenever you see young chicks
crowd around their keeper without
fear, feeding from his hand and climb
ing upon his person, be sure they are
well managed.
Left without proper shelter, Nc have
seen as many as 100 young chicks
piled on top of m another in 4 fence
