Kansas Cotton

An experiment is being made in cot

Chautauqua county, Kan. He has an
idea that cotton will grow in southern
Kansas, below the flint hills, Just as
We'll as in Oklahoma, and he is trying
to demonstrate it. He has planted
four acres, and 1t is doing well so far.
If he should get crop he will have

that the Lord may embrace him with
his mercy on every side and clothe
him with the robe Of righteousness
and with the garments of salvation.
Then the orb with the cross is given
into his hand, with these words:
"When you see this orb thus set IN
der the cross remember that the whole
world is subject to the power and en-
pire Of Christ our Redeemer.''
Rings Are Kingly Emblems.
Then he receives the ring, the en-
sign Of kingly dignity and Of defense
of the Catholic faith, and the arch
bishop says:
GAS you are this day solemnly: in
vested in the government Of this earth
ly kingdom, SO may you be sealed with
that spirit Of promise which is the
earnest Of heavenly Inheritance and
reign with him who is the blessed and
only Potentate, to him be glory forev-
er and ever. Amen"
Next he receives the scepter with the
cross, the ensign Of kingly power and
Justice, and the scepter with the dove,
the rod of equity and mercy, with this
injunction:
':Be so merciful that you be not too
remiss; SO execute justice that you for
get not mercy. Punish the wicked, pro-
tect and cherish the just and lead your
people in the way wherein they should
CO."
And then the crown is brought from
the altar, after prayer to God, and the
archbishop reverently puts it upon the
kings head. And the people at the
sight thereof with loud and repeated
shouts say, "God save the kingv' And
after that the archbishop goes on and
says:
"God crown you with a crown Of
glory and Righteousness, that by the
ministry Of this our benediction, having
a right and faith and manifold fruit Of
good works, you may obtain the
crown of an everlasting kingdom by
the gift Of him whose kingdom endur-
eth forever. Amen
Last Of all the holy Bible is brought
from off the altar and delivered to the
king by the archbishop and bishops,
with the words:
"Our gracious king, we present you
with this book, the most valuable that
this world affords. Here is wisdom;
this is the royal law; these are the

all the ensigns Of royalty, the arch
bishop solemnly blesses him and with
him all his people, and every part of

loud and hearty amen.
6. And after this the king goes to
his throne and is placed therein with
the prayer that God will establish his
throne In righteousness, that it may
stand fast forevermore, and the bish-
ops, the princes and the other peers
do their homage to his majesty.
Z. Then follows the solemn amounting
and browning of her majesty the
queen, and after that the king and
queen draw near to Gods holy table
to receive the holy communion, put
ting off their crowns before the altar.
At the end Of this great and solemn
service the TIE Deum is sung as
hymn Of praise to Almighty God, who
has shown mercy to our sovereign and
his people in thus setting him on the
throne Of his ancestors.

P()U[IN
BEST BREED OF BABY CHICKS
Much Depends on What They Are In
tended For Plymouth Rocks
Lead in United States.

In answ to a query as to the best
breed of day-old incubator chickens
for the market, the Kansas Farmer
makes the following reply:
There is no data at hand whereby
n could determine which br eed Of
baby chicks sell the best. 1t would
all depend upon what the customer
wanted to do with the chicks; to raise
them for brOilers or to keep them for
breeding purposes. If for broilers, the
the Plymouth Rocks, W%yandottes, Or
~pingtOns and Rhode Island Reis are
all good. T. wanted for breeding pur-
poses, the demand would call for q
great variety of breeds, according to
the individual preference of the pur-
chaser. In order to find out which
was the most popular fowl in the Unit
ed States, the American Poultry asso-
citation, some six years ago, promised
to publish an exclusive standard for
such breed. 1t sent to the secretaries
of all tie principal poultry shows for
the number of fowls of each breed
that We're exhibited at their shows.
From the reports received, the
Plymouth Rocks were decidedly
in the majority, and won their stand
ard. Similar reports We're called for
the next year, eliminating the Ply
mouth Rocks, and the Wyandottes
were found to be the next popular
fowl to the Plymouth Rocks. The
next year the Leghorns won, and this
year the Orpingtons came in ahead.
Therefore We find that the Plymouth
Rocks, Wyandottes. Leghorns and Or
pingtons in the order named, are the
most popular fowls in the United
States as determined by the greatest
number exhibited at poultry shows.
This might guide one as to which
breed of baby chicks are most pop
ular, rs naturally the preference for
the Young chicks would be in about
Il @ same proportion as the liking for
the adult fowls.

RAISING Pigeons.

Pigeons must have clean water for
bathing once every day. 1t should be
given them early in the morning. The
birds cannot live without it.
The bathing dishes should he

as it quickly becomes fould and should
not be allowed to stand.
The pigeon that goes about with
dropping wings is a sick bird.
At the first sign Of sickness the
birds should be taken out of the
pens and placed by themselves. Tn

should be killed at the end of three
days II they are not entirely we'll.

Pink Chickens.

Bright pink chickens and eggs with
red yolks and pink whites, both per-
fectly sound and wholesome, were a
novelty shown in the poultry exhibit
of the Oregon Agricultural College at
the state fair. These are a result of
an experiment in feeding coal tar dyes
to the birds. The day after being fed
the eggs show a difference. 1t is a
vivid illustration of the immediate eff
feet that the quality Of food has upon
eggs, and even on the flesh and feath-
ers and toenails Of the fowls.

TRAP NEST IS ADVANTAGEOUS
What Hens Are Profitable-Orones
Should Be Weeded Out.

For a number of years | have been
in favor of trap nests in order to find
out what hens are the profitable ones
to keep, says a writer in Green's Fruit
Grower. On every farm where one
hundred hens are kept the probabili-
ties are that fifty of them will not
average more than thirty eggs each
year. Some Of the fifty will lay more,
but there are a few that will not lay
at all, so l have made this general
average on such a basis.
The average cost of feeding a lien
for one year is 81. This means that
the drone should be weeded out. The
trap nest will do it. Here is a trap
nest that any farmer or farmers wife
