Too Much for His Faith.

THE late Bishop Hare" said a
Sioux Falls physician, used. very
reasonably, to impute skepticism to
misunderstanding.
He once told me about a Philadel-
phia business man OF skeptical ten
denotes, who said to him:
My dear Mr.. Hare, l do not re-
fuse to believe in the story Of the
ark. l can accept the ark's enormous
size, its odd \ shape, and the vast
number OF animals it contained. But
when am asked, my dear doctor, to
believe that he children of Israel car
ried this unwieldy thing for forty
years IN the wilderness-well, there,
I'm bound to say, my faith breaks
down "-Washington Star.

The Calm of Galilee.

The calm Of Galilee on a perfect

calm have ever known. It is gent

Of the desert. There you seem to be

CT the same variety Of chickens will
differ very greatly. Some have been
selected for egg laying, Matched for
generations from the heaviest layers
ard in this way the laying habit has
been bred into them and developed
by years Of painstaking selection.
Such stock, il vigor and size have

her left eye. Their heads are not

Answer:-Your chickens are trou-
bled with roup. The symptoms you
describe are those of this disease.
There are several remedies. Cleanse
the drinking dishes thoroughly with
boiling water in which little car
bolic acid has been added. Isolate
the affected birds, giving soft food
and water containing ginger. For Sc

FEATHER EATING.

A reader Of the Farmer is having
trouble with his fowls eating feath-
ers, he says in part: Il have my
hens yarded to prevent them from
running to the corn pens, and they
eagerly eat the feathers from each
other" 1t Is fact that whether the
fowls are intended for the show, for
table purposes or for egg production.
the habit of feather eating is most
unpleasant practice to contend with.
AS a rule feather eating is most Of
ten found in small confined space
with insufficient amount of animal
food. A most satisfactory plan to
check the nuisance Of feather eating
is to place a daily supply of broken.
up bones in the runs. Give employ
ment to the hens by feeding the grain
in straw or automatic feeders. This
will direct their attention elsewhere
and occupy the greater part Of their
time in obtaining sufficient feed to
keep them satisfied. Liberate the
fowls each evening, say an hour be-
they will be kept busy in finding a
variety of wild foods. and will not
range far enough to get to grain pens
or other places where they are not
wanted. BY liberating the fowls they
pick up foods that satisfy them suf-
ficiently to prevent them from having
any desire. for feather plucking-J.

NOTES.

A feed OF finely-chopped onions,
once a week, is a tonic that helps
to keep 'broilers lively and healthy.
The small breeds are not the best
for broilers, because OF the tendency
to put too much strength and growth
into feathers.
If egg shells are fed to the hens.
they should be broken into small
pieces so that they will not resemble
an egg; otherwise the hens are apt
to contract the egg-eating. habit.
Remember good condition" does
not mean overfat.

The result of the South Dakota election which
held recently, shows that the voters are doing
some thinking of their own, and selecting men for
their true worth rather than because they are lin.
ed up with any particular faction The offices
were fairly we'll divided between the stalwarts
and the insurgents primary election is to be
held in North Dakota next Wednesday and we pre.
dict that the voters will do some independent
thinking and select the for office for what they
are worth. Our farmers cannot afford to turn
down man like McCumber, who has ever worked
for their interests, and it is say that he will
be nominated by handsome majority. II North
Dakota should lose McCumber, it will be a long
long time before will have senator with the
prestige he has and with the ability to do things
for the state For political reasons Senator Hans
brough was turned down two years ago. and many
Of those who worked the hardest against him came
to the conclusian after it was all over that they
had made mistake. Then too you cannot afford
to let Congressman Hanna go. He's held the office
one term, and Mr.. Hanna will be able to do more
for his state another term, it is generally admit
ted that Congressman cannot do good work
during his first term he the second after
valuable experience. And then, there is western
North Dakotas candidate for Congress, James
johnson, whose prospects growing brighter
every day. Honest Jim" ought to be elected by a
safe majority, and if the people of this part Of the
state stand back of him as they ought to, we can
claim the representation down at Washington that
we deserve. A clean man, free from factional
tanglements, or pledges to anybody, the peo-
pie at large, Mr.. Johnson makes an ideal candi-
date. Don't forget to give "Jim' johnson vote
next Wednesday. "r'.

Especial Dispatch TO The Call

KELLEY, Dec. 6.-WiT the Uni
versity 81 California Rugby team bring
back the Keith cup from Victoria this
Christmas and with 1T the coast cham
pionship. or will the blue and gold
team, which will make the trip, meet
its Waterloo at the hands of the sturdy
ruggers of the north?
That is the chief topic Of conversa-
tion at the university, and at all the
student gathering places the air is full
of discussion as to the probable out
come of the trip.
Last year California's unbeaten team
Journeyed north to VancouveE and in
the hardest fought series of games that
has ever been decided on the coast was
championship.
California is sending a strong team
north this Christmas, and the Rugby
world is waiting to see whether this
team, which all critics agree is the
greatest playing machine that has been
developed in the United States since the
inception of the new game. will wrest
the laurels from the Canadians
The team expects to go on the field
in the best possible condition. Trainer
Christie and Assistant Trainer Volz will
accompany the team. and Head Coach
Schaeffer who is just recovering from
an operation, may make the trip.
OF the men who played in the big
game of November II, only two. Pauly
and Swartz, are unavailable for the
trip. A number of other serum men
have not as yet definitely decided to
make the trip. but they will probably
fall into line before the sailing date.
Dolan, the big Nevada forward, who
has been playing during the season
with the Olympic club team. will fill
one of the serum positions. Dolan will
be eligible for the blue and gold var
sity next year and will prove a great
asset to the team.
Practically the complete California
backfield will make the trip. and this
will mean that California will~more
than hold her own IN the scoring line.
Captain Elliot, former Captain Dwig-
gins, Watts, Peart, Stroud. Evans and
Allen will all probably make the trip.
The following serum men will probably
be used in the three games: Markwart.
Jordan. Harris, II. Phleger, Wheeler.
Brant, waldner, Dolan. Hansen, Hardy
and King.
The team will probably go north on
December 20 and should arrive in the
northern city about December %. The
| first game of the series will be played
on Christmas day, the second on De-
cember 2S and the final game on New
Years day. Two wins out OF the three
games decide the championship.
