II has come out this week that
President Taft is in favor OF having a
larger standing army. At present We
have about 10000 men In the regular
service ready for war at any time. II
is proposed by the General Staff At
the War College TO raise the num-
Der to $4,000. This will mean a
large increase in expense OF course;
but the Government seemg TO think
that there are dark clouds on the
horizon, and that It will pay us TO be
ready for trouble.
Another interesting development
this week is the fact that the Inter
state Commerce Commission has actu-
ally put a man onto the job of making
physical evaluation of a Texas rail-
road which has gotten into difficulty
with the Southwestern Cattle Rails

CARE OF YOUNG CHICKENS
by y. q. CLARK

skim milk is better than whole
milk.
8. Grit is an absolute necessity.
Oyster shells, or ground bone are
good.
9. Clean, fresh cool water should
be within reach of chickens at all
times. If they become real thirs-
ty and then fill up on water, bad
results follow.
10. Chickens should be induced to
exercise, as activity is essential
for good health and growth. 1t is
good to put grain in litter so that
they must ocrach for IT,
IL. All feeding should be done at
regular times and all dishes should
be clean.
10. Insects, such as lice and mites
must not be allowed to remain.
Tney can be kept off only by keep
ing the mother hen free from them.
The place to fight these insects is
In the hen-house. Drive the hens
out and close up the building tight
and burn pounds of sulphur, all
insects will be killed. Open the win
dows for a time. and allow the chic
kens to enter one at time, dust
ing each well with insect powder. A
mixture of lard and sulphur can be
uced. Repeat this operation twice
and no insects will remain. This
should be done before Matching time
so that the little chicks will not be
bothered. Insect powders, help the
little chickens though the other me-
thod is far better. busting does
not kill the eggs of insects and
should be repeated after one week.

RESOLUTIONS OF RESPECT

Berea, KY, May 10, 'O9.
Whereas, The Grand Master Of the
Universe has seen fit to call from
the labors of this life, to the celestial
Joys of the world beyond, our well be-
loved brother Frank Parker, and,
Whereas, our order has sustained a
irreparable loss and his family a kind
and loving husband and father, now,
be 1t resolved:
That the committee for Berea Lodge
No. 2S2 l. o. o. F. express our deepest
sympathy to his wife and children in
this their hour of bereavement, that a
copy of these resolutions be sent to
the Lodge of which he was a member
and a copy be sent to the family of

OF the many industries on the farm.
none is so common as the raising OF
poultry. Because of the fact that
so many people fail, while only
few, are really successful, some
general rules will be useful.
1. Chicks should not be fed until
they are from "a to SO hours old.
2. For the first week, hard-boiled
eggs chopped fine, shell and all mix
&c with three times as much bread
crumbs, is a good feed. Cold corn
bread is good, it may be fed dry, or
slightly wet in milk.
3. For the average feeder, wet
feeds are not successful.
4. When the chickens are about a
week old, cracked grain should be fed.
Millet seed, corn, wheat and oat-
meal are good, and better when mix
ed. 1t is we'll to sift the cracked grain
through a sieve so as to remove
both the meal and the large pieces.
8. Chickens should be fed a little
at a time and often. They should
have three meals Of soft feed and
two of hard until they are two weeks
old. While from two to four weeks
of age they should be fed three
meals of hard feed and two of soft.
When they reach the age of six
weeks, three meals a day are suf-
ficient.
6. Some kind of green feed must
be supplied to all chickens, If they
can not get lawn grass, vegetables
may be substituted, lettuce leaves
and onion tops are good.
Z. Better results are obtained when
some animal feed is used. When
we stop feeding hard-boiled eggs
milk, or beef scraps should be fed.

KEEP UP THE RUBBISH!


"The cutters on each side of many
of the streets are very badly neg
lected. They seem to be choked or
the fall (drainage) is insufficient,
but worse than that they seem TO be
the favorite place for depositing all
sorts of paper and rubbish of every
kind and description and this makes
the streets exceedingly unsightly. II
we Just cultivate a little more self
consciousness, you will see that it is
any thing but suitable or desirable
that objects which you do not want
on your premises should be deposited
in front of your house. You must
learn to think that the front of your
street is an extension of your home,
and should be kept in decency and in
order. Impeding the drainage in such
a way, breeds mosquitoes and other
pests, and is quite unnecessary. 1t
wont cost you anything at all to re-
train from throwing rubbish in gut
tiers and in the streets. l found one
man who has built home here re-
Gently with everything so nice about
his home. l told him l would appoint
him as the man to make the special
effort on his street.
"If you had some attractive cans
for placing this rubbish and paper in,
along a few of the streets, people
would very soon be educated past
throwing things haphazard about.
"In our city we have songs about
keeping the city clean, and which
the school children sing. One is to
the tune of marching through
Georgia"
Hurrahi Hurrah!
Our city clean and free,
Hurrahl Hurrah!
Beautiful as it can be;
That's the work for boys and girls,
Just like you and me,
Love serve and guard our own dear
city.
"They say these girls and boys see
tire cans upon the street and not only
throw their own waste in them, but
even pick up the paper and put it in
the cans.
Another one goes like this. There
was a man in our town etc.
And when he saw that paper there,
With all his might and main,
He jumped into the street again
And picked it up again.
He put that paper in the can

them, upon the school grounds as

BACK YARDS.
'Now with regard to the back yards
l am always telling the people If they
will tend to their back yards the
front yards will take care Of them
selves. In our city we have order con-
tests. These are not for the whole
