EXPERIENCE IN THE USE OF
POULTRY FOODS.

Experience is the best teacher every
time. 1t is fortunate that all do not
have to go through the same expert
ence. Some can have the benefit of
that which others have gone through.
1t is not necessary that every poultry
keeper should use all the various foods
that are on the market. in order to
learn which is best and most reliable.
He can rely somewhat ON the expert
ence Of those who have used them.

THE IDEAL POULTRY HOUSE.

The ideal poultry house is difficult to
describe. There seems to be nothing
about the poultry business in regard to
which there is a wider difference of
opinion than on this point. 1t seems to
be the general opinion that the type
of house is not very important SO long
as. it is dry, we'll ventilated, and the
fowls have plenty Of the proper kind
of food. Food is the essential thing, and
Of course certain foods are much bet
ter than others. A. Nj. Brown of North
Rochester, Mass, gives his opinion on
this particular point in the following let
ter. He says: II have fed nearly all
the poultry foods on the market, but
not with such returns as Pages Per.
fected Poultry Food gives. Ny hens
have an average of so percent to their
credit. Last winter it was so percent

Gumption on the Farm.

The only man not deeply concerned
about the good roads in your county is
the tramp who goes that way but once.
A good many folks will have cold
fingers before they are through husk-
ing corn this fall. Don't let that some
body be you.
Keep lot of bagstrings in your
granary and many times some in
the barn come handy. A broken har-
ness snap is a good thing to hang
them on.
The folks who do the most dawdling
in the fine autumn weather are often
the most surprised when the cold, wet
season catches them with their out
door work half done.
A horse will do more, and do it ten
times more willingly, for the man who
has kindly ring in his voice and who
says. "Get up" as if he were going

How to Preserve Eaoa.

When eggs are only required to be
preserved for two or three months
they keep very we'll packed in dry salt
or bran. The meat of the egg may
shrink and rattle within the shell
when shaken. but its edibility is not
impaired. Coating the egg with vase
line or butter will also keep it for a
short time. or any application which
effectively seals the pores Of the shell
and excludes air will proIong the
freshness of eggs. II the egg is even
momentarily submerged in boiliD~
water the albumel thereby becomes
sufficiently coagulated to prevent the
entrance OF air. In some Of the rural
districts in England and Scotland eggs
for home consumption are smutted
over with a mixture of sulphur and
lampb1ack. cheap and effective pre-
sentative But the limewater mix
ture is best for general purposes.

About Vermont Sanatorium.

In order to furnish the information
sought by applicants, the executive
committee of the Vermont Sanatorium
for incipient tuberculosis, Pittsford.
given to the people of Vermont by the
late United States Senator Redfeld
Proctor, has issued the following
statement:
INFORMATION FOR APPLICANTS
l. The Vermont Sanatorium is pri-
marily intended for incipient cases of
pulmonary tuberculosis 1t believes
by the reatment of such cases it can
do the greatest good to the greatest
number. So long however, as there
are vacancies it will gladly receive
any case in the early stages, whether
strictly incipieut or not, which is
likely to pc benefited by sanatorium
treatment.
2. The sanatorium is the gif0 of the
late Senator Proctor ''for the benefit
of the people of Vermont" and only
such are admitted as patients.
3. 1t is a charitable institution,
partly supported by an endowment
also given by him; but it was not in
tended as free charity, and patients
are required to pay part Of their ex-
penses. Its simple running expenses
| for the year 1908 were $3.50 for each
patient, and including a proper inter-
est and depreciation charge amounted
to about $2250 per week, of which
amount one third was paid by the pa
tients and the other two thirds was
the result of the gift of Senator Proc
| tor.
4. The sanatorium finds itself taxed
it's utmos5 in order to keep within
It's income, and it has only been able
to do that with the generous help of a
devoted friend. 1t regrets that it BIAS
no available fund out of which to pay
any part of the$7 so per week required
to be paid by patients. When patients
are unable to pay this amount their
relatives, friends, or neighbors in the
locality from which they come must
undertake to pay it for them.
5 So long as there are vacancies
applicants otherwise eligible will bt
received without reference to their
financial condition. When the num-
Der of applicants exceed the vacan'
cies, preference will be given those
who are least able to pay full price
elsewhere.
6. Application should be made or
regular blanks obtained from the san
a5orium, to be filed out and signec
by the family physician.
7. Applicants should send will
their application names of two per
sons, well known and of high standing
in their community, from whom in
quiry can be made as to the appi
cant's character and reputation.
8. Applicants will then be referred
to the nearest medical examine
whose report and that of the famil.
physician will be acted upon by thu
medical director aud committee, from
among the applications the most suit
able applicants are selected. Thos
selected will be received at once
there are vacancies; otherwise the.
will be placed upon the waiting list

CARE OF RUBBER FOOTWEAR.
Oil, SunI CHIT ard Heat All Harmful.
Rubber Shoes Should Fit Well.

Oil, SunI CHIT ard Heat All Harmful.
Rubber Shoes Should Fit Well.
Some valuable suggestions are con-
tanned in circular issued by a rub
Der footwear producing firm:
First.-Importance of fitting rubbers
properly. However good the quality
or perfect the style. rubber shoes Will
not give satisfactory service il they
are not properly fitted to the leather
shoes over which they are intended tol
be worn. Neither can rubber boots norl
lumbermens shoes be expected to wear
we'll if they are not properly Tilted.
Always fit boots as small as they can
be worn with comfort. 1t is imposst-
BILE to make boot that will not break
in the foot if it is worn too large. Fit
boots small and thus avoid wrinkles
and insure good service.
Second.-Grease and oil are very In
| furious. Do not allow grease. oil or
| animal fat to come in contact with
rubber goods, as it will speedily de-
compose the best rubber that can be
produced. Even milk contains enough
grease to injure rubber boots and shoes.
Third.-Strong sunlight is injurious.
Rubber boots and shoes when not be-
ing worn should always be kept away
from the air as much as possible and
in COOL dark place, as strong sunlight
and hot. dry air will soon cause even
the best rubber to oXidize and crack.
especially where it is wrinkled or the
outside surface Of the rubber is under
a constant strain.
FOurth.-Heat is fatal Remember
that heat unbearable to the hand is
more than enough to destroy the value
and wearing qualities of good rubber
boots and shoes. When you warm
your feet before the fire or radiator
with your rubbers on. by the time you
feel the warmth the rubbers are usual
ly cooked to, death.
Fifth tears easily. This is
true Of cloth. paper and various other
things, but few goods besides rubber
have such great tensile strength and
yet will tear so easily after rent is
once made

SWEET SCENTED PILLOWS.
How to Prepare the Stuffing and Sc
lect the Covers

In order to make sweet scented pill
lows first of all the pillow stufiing
must be we.. dried. Lay the leaves or
flowers in an airy shaded room and
toss them about gently every day. that
they shall not collect moisture and
mold. When they are quite dry you
are ready TO stuff the pillow Take
enough raw cotton to fill one-half of
the pillow, tear it in small pieces and
lay it in a big pan and dry it out well
in the oven. This makes a fluffy fill
ing. Now mix the cotton with the
dried flowers and leaves. fill up the
cushion of ticking and sew it firmly
1t is ready for the outer covering.
Of course, if you prefer it. you may
lavender alone. but it will not be so
comfortable as the pillow that is part
~ baked cotton. and. since you want
to put your head on it. why not make
it comfortable? Hops must be used by
themselves. and so must lavender But
one may make truly delicious blends
by mixing dried lemon verbena. rose
geranium, rose petals and Glove pinks
Choose your rose petals from the old
fashioned fat double pink roses; they
are the sweetest sort.
Pine pillows have a refreshing wood
sy perfume. and fern leaves dried have
delightful mysterious odor that
makes one remember the belief Of
childhood that one could put fern seed
in ones eyes and ever afterward
would be able to see fairies Clover
makes sweet pillows. too. redolent Of
new mown hay. The common pink
clover makes the sweetest sort. though
white clover may be used.
AS for the covers. choose something
! distinctive and individual. A little pill
low of rose leaves and lemon verbena.
covered with rose colored linen with
little rosebud stenciled on it. is most
unusual and charming.
For hop pillow choose linen cover
Of dull green and embroider your mon
Ogram in mercerized cotton exactly
| the same tone in one corner.
The cover for pine pillow might
well be Of rough tan crash or linen
with stenciled pattern of green and
brown on It, or else with a smart
monogra Unlock letters embroidered
in brown in one corner.
Fern leaf pillows should be covered
with creamy linen. rather heavy in
quality. with green fern leaves en-
broidered or stenciled upon it. Make
the cover in the form Of two squares
considerably larger than the pillow
and work long buttonholed eyelets
through both. lacing them together
over the pillow with a ribbon Of dull
green. At the corner where the rib
bon ties slip two or three big greer
beads on loops and ends.
To cover pillows a cover Of the pop
ular Russian crash in cool gray would
be appropriate, and if it is stencilet
lightly with butterflies or dragon file.
it will add to it's daintiness. or i
might be embroidered in small, fla
squares in rose colored cotton.
The flower perfumed pillows will b'
found useful for the afternoon OF
lounges in the hammock. Slip then
under your head. and they will per
fume your hair with just a touch O
delicate fragrance.
