formal State receptions planned for the
present White House season was given
last night by the President and Mrs

Some LOO guests we're invited. Mrs. Taft

IN the manner OF conducting the great
state affairs at the White House. For
me first time in many administrations.

circle. which nourished during the Roose-
welt administrations. when a select coteria
OF social friends were invited behind tho

bers OF the cabinet and the ladies Of
their households.
The refreshments served in the State
dining room consisted Of creamed oysters,
salads. ices and champagne punch.

He said that he YVES not especially adj

An apology is unquestionably due our many patrons on
account Of slow and unsatisfactory deliveries during the first
three day, of this week. W. regret this exceedingly but it
can only be attributed to the fact that we never had 90 many
parcels to deliver in th. same length Of time. The facilities at
our command were inadequate to meet the extraordinary de-
mands.
We are pleased to say that arrangements have now been
made by which it is expected such vexatious delays will, in
future. be entirely eliminated from our delivery service.

ter with some Buff Leghorn chicks
that are bothered with throat
trouble. causing them to wheeze,
cough and hold their mouths open
while breathing. making so much
noise that they can be heard 30 yards.
says Baltimore American. No doubt
the trouble is gapes, caused by a
small worm one-eighth to one-quarter-
inch in length In the windripe. These
worms can be seen readil; with the
naked eye In the material coughed up.
For treatment isolate affected chicks
from the healthy ones and cause them
to inhale fine lime dust. This can
best be accomplished by putting the
bird in barrel or box. the top OF
which is covered with a piece Of bag.
cling, through which the lime may be
sifted slowly and finely. This treat.
ment will cause the fowl to cough up
the worms because Of Its irritating Of.

focate them by not admitting enough
air. This treatment may be repeated

science Of farming Is receiving de-

certainly giving much attention to
the farm and the people who work

at, for upon the farm and It's products
depend all other Industries. Without
this science alllother things must fall.
whereas the farmer could, II neces-
sary. shift at doing without all the
rest.
Knowing how Is Just as valuable on
the farm as in any other branch Of
industry. The subject OF dry farming
Is an illustration very much in point
