business is the fact that we are de.

to go to breeding from mature fowls
and keep them for a Number of
years; then if they do not pay us

duce eggs for the market they will

than a hen that is going to exhaust
all her resources in the first year.
All the same. we advise our pOul-

The First Use Of iron.

tTte Beginning of Iron," by DR..
Eidgeway, discusses the question Of
the first use OF his metal In Egypt
it can be traced back to the ninth
century 3. c., and in Libya to about
$50 p. c. First mention of its use
in China gees back to 400 B. c., while
in Uganda it is said to have been in
use only some five or six centuries.
AS result of his Interesting inveS-
LEGATIONS Dr. Ridgeway concludes that
the smelling of iron originated in
Central Europe, and especially in the
region known as Noricum. equiva-
lent to modern Austria and Bavaria.
The above date for the first use OF
iron in Egypt refers to the metal OBJ
tanned by smelling The use OF ma
tive iron in the form of meteorites
dates back to remote antiquity. The
weapons made from these were OBJ
tanned, like flint implements, by chip
ping. And it is interesting to remem-
Der that recent Investigations have
shown that the iron of many meteo-
rites is sort OF natural steel

PROPER FOOD.

In the growing of young chick!
many people give the greatest care
and attention for the first two OF
three weeks and then neglect them
| The best rule in feeding is TO give
| a sufficient quantity every day from
| the time they are Matched until they
have grown to maturity. Too much
feeding is perhaps worse than not
enough but good and plenty all the
time expresses it. This means a
plentiful supply Of good wholesome
food every day until they are fully
matured either for the market, for
winter layers, the breeding pen, the
showroom Or for whatever purpose
they are intended.
1t is comparatively easy matter,
by colonizing and placing their roost-
ing coOps in different localities to
keep the various ages and sizes of
poultry separate, SO that these of one
age may be fsd and grown together
This prevents the larger or more ma
tured chicks from running over,
trampling and destroying the young
er ones and places them all upon an
equality as to size and strength.
Those who have not carefully con-
sidered the matter will scarcely real
ize what large number Of chicks
are destroyed by being trampled to
death by older ones when they are
all compelled to run together and
grab their food supply, catch-as-catch-
can. all in one spot. If they must all
be fed together, scatter the food sup
ply over large area of ground or
into a larger number OF feed troughs,
as may be. so that all will have a
fair chance without being crowded.
One of the main secrets of success
with the growing of poultry is the Sc
lection of the very best kinds of foods
for the producing of bone, flesh and
and this should be fed con.
tinually and plentifully throughout
the entire growing season. In this
way bone, size, and constitution are
built up and good health and vigor
that will withstand the strain Of a
continuous winter g-production or

ket poultry or the endurance and Wig

SOCIAL LIFE FOR THE FARMERS
FAMILY

1t is true that the farmers family
does not have the same chance for
social diversion that those living in
the cities may easily avail themselves
OF, but it is also true that more might
be done to better this state of things
II the people themselves only
thought so and brought their minds
to the task. l want to tell you how
some farmers wives solved the prob
lem of sociability.
In one instance the ladies in the
community formed what they called
Mothers Meeting" although the
membership was not restricted to
mothers by any means; at least two
young ladies and one maiden lady,
who gleefully called herself an old
maid, belonged to it. They held a
meeting once in two weeks at the
home of some member, from two I'M
I'll five in the afternoon. One thing
had been especially stipulated; there
was to be absolutely no refreshments
Of any kind. They all had to cook
three meals day for hearty working
men and they wanted social diver
sion. not "victuals." They had
program committee and there was
program for each meeting. In addi-
ton to this there was always a moth
er's question box, and anyone could
bring any question that troubled her
whether about the rearing of children,
or some task about the household |
The varied experiences thus exchang-
ed were very helpful
These meetings were greatly en-
Joyed and were also beneficial. Later, |
on becoming ambitious to keep in
touch with the world through the |
realm of books. they started a library.
This was accomplished in the follow
ing manner. Each member paid one
dollar year dues into the club and
had the privilege of drawing a book
week. A member who lived at
the little Four Corners, where the
most Of them did their trading
through the week, undertook to keep
he books where the members could
get them. Of course they had to
begin with few, but they added to
hem every year until they soon had
quite a nice library. Every year
some of the later books. as well as
ome of the standards, were added

and atmospheric pressure is then al

marrIeu an American instead Of an

man enlists his wife in his political
