capons and Caponizing.

The flesh of the capon Is regarded by
epicures as superior to that Of chick
ems, or even of the turkey. At pres
ent capons are most generally known
and appreciated In France, but in le-
cent years they have grown rapidly
In popularity in the United States, es-
peciaily in the East. Consequently
the business Of producing them has
advanced rapidly In this country.
A capon, which Is an altered male
chicken, bears the same relation to
cockerel that steer does to a bull
AS a result of his more peaceful dis
position he continues to grow and his
body develops more uniformly and to
q somewhat greater size than is tho
case with a cockerel Of the same age.
Coupled with the better growth is the
fact that capon brings a better
price per pound. While rooster ten
months to a year old is worth 8 to lo
cents pound, and in the case OF es'
pecially fine poultry IL to 10 cents
pound, capon in season brings IL TO
25 cents @ pound.-Epitomist.

Blessed Face-the face of the Lord.
He had idealized the Christ until now
he believed that the time had come,

Thus Father John spent his days IN

Use a Wheel Hoe.

If you have never had wheel hoe
in the garden commence with one this
spring. 1t will cost only six or eight
dollars with all the attachments neces-
sary for ordinary work and 1t is
worth the money twice over. There
are plows Of different sizes, cultivator
teeth and knives that slide under the
soil to cut off weeds when you don't
want to disturb the surface, and there
are rake teeth to make dust mulch
with. In certain kinds of work you
can shove 1t down the row as fast as
you can walk and 1t is so arranged
that you can throw your weight
against 1t instead Of doing all the
work by main strength, as you do with
the ordinary hoe. The wheel reg'l-
lates the depth so you don't have to
think of that part Of 1t. BY all means
get a wheel hoe and grow enough eX'
ira stuff in the garden in one season
to pay for it.-Epitomist.

songs, and children's voices and sweet
! flowers blooming outside had no at
traction for him.
But one morning his face seemed H..
lumlned with the freshness OF hope.
He seemed to hear spirit voice which
said that that day he would see his
| Lord-see the Blessed Face. Now he
might be more than repaid for his long
vigil and for his far journey from the
busy haunts Of men and the world of
stress and strain. And he set himself
with special care to watch for tho
Blessed vision.
At length there came gentle tap on
the window of his cell; for it was in a
cell on the ground floor he had watched
for the Blessed Face. A little child,
tired and ragged and hungry, had
drawn near to the window, and there
was pathos and pleading to be taken in
and sheltered and fed. Her feet were
cold, her clothing scant and thin.
But Father John was too busy with
his devotions and paid no heed to the
childs cry. Besides, he felt that now
or never he would see the Blessed
Face. He was waiting for the appear
ance Of the glorious vision that he felt
had been promised. So he waited on
and watched on till the day had drawn
near its cleaning and he was disap-
pointed Meanwhile the child had
gone away unheard and unfed and un-
clothed. The promise of the vision had
not been fulfilled.
On the morrow boat was in readi-
ness to take him back to his duties in
the city of the far South. Many and
sad were the farowels of the brothers
of Clugniac of Iona-the Blessed Isle.
At night the Father Superior gath
cred the brothers near him after sup
per, and related the quest of Father
John. The little child neglected by the
Benedictine monk had been taken in at
the little Office and cared for, after her
visit at the window cell. With grow
ing wonder and interest the brothers
listened to the story Of the quest for
the vision.
why was the vision so delayed to
Father John?" Asked the Old Father
Superior. And the brothers with open
eyes and open hearts listened for reply.
MY children he said tenderly, 'let
me tell you. Father John did not
know the Christ had come to him in
the child he needed not, and that, un-
welcomed at the window cell, He had
gone away. That was why TO him, my
children, the vision failed, and why
he did not see the Blessed Face."-New

The Vision That Failed.

must be tired after the long and severe
journy from London. Pray be seated;
in very little time now we will have

was shown chair in a room that
served for an once to the Father Su-

Johns travelling bag" he said to one
of the brothers who stood outside the
door of the Office.

But the brother could hear nothing
more, for by that time he had placed
the bag where he had been told, and
was soon outside in the hall wonder
ing once more whom or what the
Benedictine Father wished TO see.
After supper, and far into the mid
night hour, the two men sat and con-
versed on things near to their heart;
but never did the Benedictine Father
allow them to go far, either in thought
or word, from the burden of his quest
1t was to him very real matter. At
last the hour had come for them to re-
tire; the Father Superior to we'll
earned sleep and rest, but the Bene-
dictine monk to his cloister to medi-
tate and pray and watch.
Good night Father John" said his
companion LAS you have spoken, so
be it. You need not look on the face
of mortal being until you find your
souls quest. You deserve to see the
Blessed Face, for you have taken great
pains in thus coming so far, and your
secluded life and hearts devotions
should meet with due reward. Good
night, my son" and as he placed his
hand over his head he said, 81 pray
that the vision Of the Blessed Face
may not be withheld from you" And
the last thing the Father Superior heard
were the footsteps of Father John on
the stone slabs, growing fainter and
fainter, but he knew his visitor was
within his cell by the noise of the clos
ing door.

The local nurseryman usually is
careful to sell what will do well In
the community. He can be depended
upon to sell good stock that Is likely
to grow, and he will furnish varieties
that will give the best returns for
the amount of work put on them. A
little confidential talk before placing
an order is good thing.-John H.

Care of the Separator.

One of the first considerations Is
20 thoroughly cleanse the separator
every time it is used. The desira-
BILE and undesirable bacteria growth
depends upon the cleanliness OBJ
served. The putrefactive species or
those that cause the ordinary decay
and undesirable favors, are common
ly associated with filth. In cleaning
the separator, first, thoroughly
cleanse the tubes and intricate parts
with warm water. After all the milk
has been removed, thoroughly scald
all parts that come in contact with
the milk. When purchasing a hand
separator, simplicity of construction
should be one of the first considera-
tions in influencing the buyer.
Cream should be aired and cooled
as soon as separated; fat is poor
conductor of heat or cold, and must
necessarily be stirred while cooling.
II cream has been treated this way 1t
will keep in a cool place for two or
three days. Warm cream should nev-
er be added to cold cream until 1t
has been reduced to the same tem-
perature.-Epitomist

SUFFRAGE IN GERMANY,
Recent Progress of Movement-An

The Prussian law forbidding women

was annulled last May, and the Prus-
sian Woman Suffrage Association

ing no longer confined to the distri-
button OF letters and literature. Its
first annual meeting was held in Ber.

Government and Parliament" and was
received with prolonged and enthusias-
tic APPLAUSE by large audience. DR..

into courts of justice (she is DR.. Juris)
and not infrequently into prison where
courts of injustice land their victims.
The membership Of the Prussian As
sociation has increased from 700 to
1917 within the year. The Berlin Lo-

so growing rapidly, at present number

ROMANTIC TALE OF A CITY.
City of Mexico, Founded in 1925, Has
Extraordinary Story.

The story of the founding of the
traordinary tales in history. 1t hap
pened in 1925, at least it began long
time before that, but was an accom-
plished fact about six hundred years
ago
In the first place, says the Rosary
Magazine, imagine an almost inac-
cessible mountain, crowned with val
ley at the height of eight thousand feet
above the level of the sea. In the
centre of this valley was an immense
lake. When the Aztecs arrived, led
by the priests of the God of War, they
found it in the possession of hostile
tribes.
For that reason, and because the
priests declared that In certain part
of the lake where there stood an ele-
vation of stones an eagle had been
seen devouring serpent, they began
tn construction of the city on this
spot, Immediately over the deepest
waters Of the lake. There had long
existed a prophecy among the Aztecs
that their wanderings would end when
they should have reached place
where the priests would behold an
eagle resting on a cactus plant, de-
vouring serpent.
Confident that they had found the
spot ordained to be their abiding
home, they began to construct RATS
Of the trunks of trees, covering them
with thick layers of earth, upon which
they built rude huts of more or less
solidity. Groups of dwellings soon be-

The Egg Trade.

The Bureau of Animal Industry Of
the Department of Agriculture has
just issued a circular by Milo M.
Hastings, presenting the results of
study made during the past year Of
the conditions surrounding the pro-
duction and marketing of eggs, with
view To determining the causes OF
deterioration in quality and conse-
quent loss. There is an enormous
loss due 10 the spelling of eggs, which
could be largely prevented by i'm.
proved methods. In this circular the
causes of such loss are pointed out,
and suggestions made for remedying
them.
According to Mr.. Hastings, the bulk
of the poultry wealth in the United
States is to be found on the general
farms of the Mississippi Valley. Some
idea of the growth of the poultry in.
dustry on these farms is shown in the
case of the state ON Kansas, where
exclusive poultry farms are practical
ly unknown, yet the value of poultry
and eggs sold has increased over ST.
100000 each year for the past five
years.
The total loss to the egg trade
caused by needless deterioration runs
into large figures. The causes of the
2 losses and their estimated proportion
to the total crop value are summed
up as fellows: Dirty eggs, two per-
cent; breakage, two percent; chick
development or heated eggs, five per.
cent; shrunken or held eggs, five per-
cent; rotten eggs, 2.5 percent; moldy
or bad flavor, 0.5 percent; total, seven
teen percent.
The loss from chick development or
heated eggs is probably greater than
from any other source, and is espe-
cially heavy during the summer in the
South and West, where 1t amounts to
% or 80 percent Of the eggs produced
during The heated season. The re-
sponsibility for heated egs is almost
wholly with the farmer, although the
rural buyer and the freight handler
are in nowise innocent
ITO save the millions of dollars
which are carried down our sewers In
the shape of bad eggs" says Mr.. Hast
ings, we must have, first, a cam
paign of education among egg pro-
ducers that will show every farmers
wife that when eggs are allowed to re-
main in damp nests, under broody
hens, or in hot kitchens, there is
loss in quality which means an actual
loss in money to herself and to her
neighbors; and, secondly, system OF
buying eggs that will as nearly as pos
sible recompense every producer who
sells eggs exactly in accordance with
what these eggs are worth. Above
all else, the infallible rule concerning
the marketing of eggs is for the farm
er to sell his eggs as soon as posi-
BILE after they are laid"
