THE 0PitN MIND.

& is the fashion to sing the praises
of the open mind. According to its
advocates, it is the sure cure of ig-
norance, and the key to power. The
truth is that the open mind, like the
open road, may, or may not, be de-
sirable. The open road may lead to
a noble city or a barren desert. The
open mind may be full or empty.
The young woman who prefers an
assortment of prejudices to mind
as bare as Mother Hubbards cup
board is not far from the heart of
the matter. Nature abhors a vacuum,
and when openness involves empti-
ness there rushes into the mind a
crowd of ideas of every shade and
shape, until it displays a mere
hotchpotch--a kind of hummage
sale of the cast-off goods of other
folk.
The truth is that the closed mind
was the intellectual blunder OF a
past age, ana tudt tnG open Hluus Vi
what passes for that, is likely to
prove the mistake of our own age.
The woman who studies the art of
being a gracious hostess to men,,
women or ideas should not find her
self in middle age keeping a road
side tavern for the entertainment OF
every tramp and beggar. She may,
rather, hope to attain at that time
! in her life circle of chosen friends
! and of chosen ideas, and to shut the
! door on uncongenial intruders. Her
house will then be suitably equipped
! and furnished, so that she will not

TAKE TIME TO THINK.

President Hadley of Yale Univer-

1T costs self denial to think The
man who sees what he is doing
avoids many easy and pleasant paths
which are open TO the blind. He as
sumes burdens where others are al
lowed to sleep quietly. He cuts him
self off from indulgences which
others allow themselves because he
sees the consequences anC they do
not. The right and wrongs of modern
business and modern politics in
modern society are harder to olsen
tangle than they have been in any
previous age. To him who with I'M
selfish purpose and with clear head
shall learn to think these problems
out and take the responsibility that
they bring It'll them is promised
the crown of life Every time that
you face a moral issue squarely you
help to create public opinion. The

men by not following the crowd on
lines of easiest resistance; by think
ing where he goes and making a

Feeding of EGGS.

Hens will not refuse to lay provid-
ing the conditions which surround them
are favorable for egg production. OF
course, hen cannot keep on laying all
the time, nor will some hens lay even
for a majority Of the time, but the
farmer who provides the correct condi-
tons Of housing, feeding and general
management will find that he will not
be entirely without eggs at any time of
the year. OF course, it is not the hens
nature to lay at this time Of the year,
but if she is comfortably housed and
well fed, the farmer will find that the
hen after all really has little senti-
ment as to just which season she shall
produce her eggs.
Getting eggs is not entirely matter
Of feeding, yet if we feed correctly the
hens will not have that as an actual
obstacle to laying. Maturity and vigor
are two important things in the hens
that are to be heavy winter layers.
Keep the hens in a thrifty, vigorous
condition, and be sure and feed va
riety. These things count for a great
deal toward success. Corn, oats and
wheat are the three principal grain
feeds, but there are others that may
well be fed by way Of variety and
the meat and green stuff in some form
should never be neglected. Give any
kind Of meat scraps or prepared meat
foods, as 1t pays. Try to keep the hens
under conditions as near like those in
existence at spring time as you can,
and you will not suffer severely from
an egg famine. This is nothing impos-
sible, and briefly, only means comfort
able housing, variety of feeds, green
stuff and meat scraps, and sanitary

Four O'clocks, or Marvel of Peru

Those well known, free Towering an
1uals, deserves a place in every garden.
A mixed packet of seed will produce a
great variety of colors. They are best
adapted for the mixed border or for long
narrow beds and there is no plant that
will give the amateur gardener greater
pleasure and satisfaction for the slight
expense entailed.
They flower continuously all summer
and being vigorous growers must not be
planted too thickly. The plants should
stand eighteen inches apart each way.
Seed is generally sown in the hot bed
In April and the young plants lifted and
set out from one month to six months
later. Young plants from small pots are
usually to be had from most florists at
the proper time for planting them out
doors
Good results are obtained from sowing
the seed in the ground where the plants
are to remain But they will be much
later Towering than the plants obtained
from the florists or grown by the garden
er himself in bis hot bed. When planted
outside the seed should be sown after
danger of frost is passed and the ground
is warm, usually the middle of May. Five
or six seed should be planted in a hill
and the plants should be thinned out
when quite small. The seed should be
covered with not more than one inch
of loose soil. Any location with plenty
of room and sunlight is suitable.
