A Social Center Movement and a

The entertainment at the High school

will go to aid the public schools at

the school without adequate support.
The Democrat is confident that people
of Mineral Point will heartily support

CONJURING
WITH CUPID
The Little Gods Darts Penetrate
Even Into Boiler Factories
BY CLARISSA MACKIE
Copyright by American Press Asso-
citation, 1911.

"It is purely business arrange
ment," said Mr.. Ashbee, the lawyer,
pecking at his desk blotter with pen
holder 'Your Cousin Nahum merely
desired to reunite two branches Of his
family which had long been separated
by a senseless feud. 1t is only a
matter of circumstance that you, Miss
Cedelia, and your cousin many times
removed, Oliver Craig, are the last
members Of your respective families,
and you cannot overcome the fact that
Nahum Meade left a perfectly valid
will, and you cannot evade the response
bility he has placed upon you in max
ing you half owner Of the Meade Boil
er works"
Cedelia Meade listened impatiently
to the lawyers prosy discourse. When
he had concluded her red lips parted in
protest.
Suppose both are dissatisfed?" de-
manded Cedelia.
"Then the entire estate goes to the
Railroad hospital" said the lawyer
bluntly.
"What a bother to be poor" sighed
Cedelia, ''and have to accept such un-
reasonable terms! With all due re-
spect to my Cousin Nahum, whom
never set eyes upon, it seems to me
that he was more deeply concerned in
reuniting estranged branches of bis
family than he was in the actual good
his money might do. I'm tired Of
teaching school; ;aand the idea Of long
vacation appeals to me, but 1 much
prefer the sound OF surf breaking on
the oceans shore than to listen to the
noises in a boiler factory"
"Mr. Meade had his peculiaritfes.
and this letter Of personal instructions,
Of which copy has gone to Oliver
Craig, outlines his most fragrant one"
Mr.. Ashbee gave Cedelia sealed en-
velope. and while she read it he re

tired behind a newspaper, as if for
follow.
There was an ominOus calm on Cede-
lia's side Of the room, and when the
little lawyer dared peep around his
paper fortiflcatfon he saw Miss Meade
sitting pale and wide eyed and ex-
ceedingly wrathful, and so he lodged
back again out of sight.
''The very fdea," breathed Cedelia
at Iast-"the very idea Of Cousin
Nahum embodying such restriction
in this matter! You know the con-
tents of this letter, suppose, Mr..
AshbeeT'
Mr.. Ashbee lowered the newspaper
and bowed his head II read it after
Mr.. Meade had written it," he ac

"He could not have been in his right
mind to thus insult somebody whom
he had never even seen" And then.
referring to the letter. Cedelia quoted
scornfully: "Tn case marriage should
be arranged between my estimable
cousins, and there Is no reason to be-
lieve that this might not happen even
IL they meet each other for the first
time amid the din Of their boiler fac.
tory. then. and only then, may they dis
pose of the factory property. Other.
wise the property must be worked to
the best advantage. and in the event
of the death Of either or both Of the
legatees the property will pass into
the possession Of the railroad hospital.
But because 1 feek positive, that Cupid

road hospital
After Cedelia had taken her stately
self away from the lawyers office
Mr.. Ashbee bumped himself over some
neglected papers and smiled grimiy.
'I told Nahum Meade that crusty
old bachelor like himself had better
not conjure with love or Cupid or any
thing Of that sort. Let well enough
alone, say. and / ought to know"
Mr.. Ashbee was bachelor, too, and
knew whereof he spoke.

Minnesota markets from her farms
5000, 900 chickens annually. or tnM
number 81 per cent weigh three and
half pounds and under, and 21 per
cent are mo. 2 Small" and "Culls."
It is very evident that the farmers OF
Minnesota do not fatten their chick
ems The common practice is to sell
chickens alive to dealers, who ship
them by express or in poultry cars to
the Twin Cities or Eastern markets.
From June / to July Is is the "broil-
ar" season, when many spring chick
ems, mostly young roosters, are dis
posed of. From July Is until Nov. Is
is the regular shipping season, when
all kinds of stock are disposed OF.
Some of the stock, sold from the free
range on the farm, is so poor that II
must be sent to feeding stations to be
fattened before it can be put upon the
market at profit
BY July Is spring chickens OF the
pounds or over, but thousands OF
them are rut into the feeding coops at
these stations averaging only 1T
pounds. During August the average
is little higher, 1.98 pounds each.
These chickens are so poor and
scrawny that they must be fattened
to be in condition to sell in the retail
market.
There is too large per cent OF
waste in such lightweight birds, and
intelligent buyers will not purchase
them. Why should not the farmers,
who raise the stock, and have the feed,
fatten the poultry, before selling?
There are two methods that may be
used. the '1oose-pen" and crate"
method. tSend to the Extension Diyi-
sion, University Farm, st. Paul, for
Extension Bulletin No. 2D. The for
mer is recommended for the smaller
active breeds, and consists OF eonfin-
ing twenty-five to fifty birds in small
