The Aunt's Wisdom
By TIMOTHY A. FORTUNE

on her advice. What a level head she
has! At this rate perhaps we may be
married in another year"
Possibly. but since we have begun
to act on your aunt's advice we should
complete the proposition. There is the
salary for necessary expenses and, say,
10 per cent to be saved. There Is the
fund for unforeseen contingencies and
the fund for old age. Your aunt said
we must be patient"
$50 we WILL" said the girl.
Another year passed. with more ad-
dit1ons to the fund than had been ex-
pected. and Georges salary was raised
to sufficiency for a young couple to
live plainly. The next year the contin-
gent fund could easily have been set
aside, but in that event George would
have to begin at the bottom of the
SNOWFALL Tie desirable thing was
to wait till the latter was big enough
to furnish the former and working
capital besides. This George decided
upon. and Eleanor was disappointed,
When Eleanor was twenty-one George
and his SNOWFALL" Aunt Anna thought
they might be married without trans
crossing the laws, of prudence, but
George had his eye on some real estate
that could be bought very cheap and
preferred to wait another year. The
rental would pay off mortgage there
was on it. He bought the property be-
fore the year was out. but figured that
by two years more of careful expendi-
ture he could pay off the NOR, gage and
have the property intact.
Eleanor objected to these constant
deferments, but George wouldn't give
up his plan. He said they could live in
the house when paid for rent free. and
he could have what the rental of
home would be to make more money
with.
When George was twenty-eight years
old he was considered very well to do.
but he had the reputation of being one
of the meaneSt young men in the place
where he lived. At this time he made
several neat turns in business way.
clearing a considerable sum. For the
first time he failed TO report his gain
TO his sweetheart Nor did he confide
it to any one else
and so the years went on. but the
wedding came not. Il feel so sorry for
that Miss Hodges said lady to an

and that would interfere with his mi

Los Angeles If the movement started

prohibiting treating. as leaders of the
crusade hope to accomplish. The treat

shortcoming and perhaps has enjoyed
Its widest scope in California In the
state treating has grown up with the
country, so to speak, In the early days
when miners carried gold about in
pouches il was an insult to hesitate to
accept drink with the one issuing the

ELEcrRIEY PLANra

DR.. Lyman ]. Briggs, head Of the ex-
pertinent section of the bureau of plant
industry. is stringing electric wires
over a government garden on the Po-
tomac river for the purpose OF raising
plants by the aid of electricity. He
will electrify onions and snap beans,
potatoes and hops.
For some time DR.. Briggs has been
experimenting with electricity in the
cultivation Of plants, but his apparatus
was not Of the best type until now. A
few new wires from England were i'm
ported and are in position. The wires
are about sixteen feet above the
ground.
DR.. Briggs will not tell Just how he
ia going to apply electricity to the
onion and the bean. but he thinks that
he will produce better vegetables at a
lower cost than the farmer.

HOME TRADE THANKSGIVING
DINNER is A REAL Joy
We Just Know That Everything From
the Turkey Down Viii d
Fit For King.

When you eat your Thanksgiving
dinner timely thought OH the sub
ject of thankfulness should be tina,
you could purchase the ingredients for
such a satisfying: dinner right at home
One thing is sure so tar as your
Thanksgiving dinner is concerned, and
that is that it did not come from a
mail order house. And you know right
now before the things are bought that
everything is going to he tiptop.
Would you have this feeling Of assur-
ance if you knew your THANKSGIVING
dinner WAS coming from mail order
house! Unanimous acknowledgment
that you would not is a strong argu-
ment for home trade
II you can buy everything for q
Thanksgiving dinner right at home and
he satisfied with every item on the
bill of fare, why IN the world should
you send your money out of town to
buy anything else when the out of
town purchase Is attended with un-
certainty?
The home butcher will see that you
get plump. fresh turkey: the home
grocer will supply you with fresh
cranberries and all the other dxings.
Why? Well, for one reason because
you are one Of the persons upon whom
he is dependent for his livelihood,
The butcher Is bound to sell you n
good turkey and the grocer good cram
berries, for they expect to have you for
a Thanksgiving customer next year.
They also want your patronage for the
Christmas dinner. In other words, the
home merchant has to be conscien-
tious. But how about the mall order
house and conscience? Those who have
dealt with mail order houses that
pay for tricky ads. to lure your money
away need no prompting when it
comes to the answer. Therefore It
behooves US all to stick the year round
to the homo tradesmen who sell us
good turkeys, good cranberries and
everything else that makes q Thanks
giving dinner good.
Most mail order bargains turn out
about as satisfactory as a mail order
cold storage turkey when you have
your appetite primed for the fresh,
luscious bird that the home butcher
has all ready for you.

COLLEGE FARMERS

The farm which WIS established last
spring by a number of Princeton mi.
versity students who are paying their
own expenses through college has
proved such success that next wear
almost 100 acres owned by the mi
versity will be TILED. The report for
the past year showed that the nro-
ceeds of the farm did little more than
countcrba!ance the expenses. but the
farm was not pushed to the limit as
regarded its productive capacity.
Fifteen students We're given en-
pioyment from the 1st of June until
the middle of September and working
at the rate of - cents an hour earned
an average of about Sl2 n week
Three acres Of potatoes. five acres
Of beans, 1000 tomato plants and
10000 lunches of celery We're grown.
These were disposed of in the local
markets. and the late crops are being
bought by the college eating clubs and
the university dining halls at regular
market rates.

orphan, was brought up by an aunt
who was very wise woman. As soon
as she heard of the affair she called
the lovers into her boudoir and said:

ther Of you has any means, and you,

is all right If you will be patient. Far
he it from ME to object to this match
because neither of you is rich. What
wish you to do is to wait till
George has a salary that will enable
you to live without having the Wolf
continually proving about your door.
Besides this, you should have little

matter that should be provided. though

Culled Fresh From the Farm
PROPER WAY WITH TURKEYS
BEFORE AND AFTER KILLING
Don't Feed For Eighteen Hours Before
Putting Bird to Death-Piuetins
Must Be Done Carefully.

Before killing turkeys for the
Thanksgiving market keep them for
eighteen hours in clean. airy place
without any food. They are allowed to
have water up TO within eight hours of
killing time
When a bird is to be killed 1t should
be suspended head downward, with its
feet in Il moose of strong cord, far
enough from the walls Of the house and
other objects SO that 1t cannot tnjure
its wings when 1t struggles. After
stunning the bird by dealing a sharp
blow at the base of the skull with a
club, pass the left arm around the body
Of the fowl under the wings and hold
the side Of the breast toward you.
Grasp the head in the left hand, OPEN
ing the bill with the thumb and fore
finger, and thrust the knife blade In
through the mouth to the region Just
back Of the brain and make q sharp
cut directly across the roof Of the
mouth to sever the arteries Then hold
the bird firmly with the left arm and
hand and begin at once to remove the
feathers with the right hand, begin
ming at the juncture of head and neck
and working up over the breast and
body Give the bird a turn that pre-.
sents the back to the operator and be-
gin at the neck or between tho wings
and pluck toward the tail. The short
feathers Of the wings. tail, Shanks and
neck are removed next.
As a general rule the feathers OF the
last Joint Of each wing are left on, and
the long feathers Of the tail are NJ
moved or not, as the market requires.
The thumb and forennger do most Of
the plucking by firmly grasping q few
feathers and removing them by a quick
jerk, which begins upward toward the
tail and terminates outward and il &C.
complished by quick twist Of the
wrist. This motion nrst loosens the
feathers in their sockets by starting
them the way they grow and then re-
moves them at the angle least liable to
tear the skin. Careful handling after
picking is very desirable, for a bruise
will cause discoloration, which Is det-
rimental to appearance.
In my experience cooling IL best &c
complished by hanging the picked tur-
keys in the open air out Of the sun long
enough to allow the escape Of all ant

to freeze or become stiff.-Country Gen.

IF you WANT SPRING PIGS.
Good Plan to Have Sows Sturdy Whom
littsrs Como,

The hog grower must manage to
have the pigs come at the most desir-
able season, both in spring and fall.
The last Of February is not too early
for the spring pigs, and Sept. is about
the proper season for fall litters. We
wean our fall pigs at eight weeks old.
Tho sow's ration is cut down at least
one half for "A few days. Corn is the
principal ration until the milk dries up.
then the sows are fed literally on mid
dlings and other feeds rich in protein
until the sows come In heat.
The object is to have the hogs in
thriving condition when bred. They
should be bred by Nov. 10 il the pigs
are to come in February. My records
show that my old sows do not, as a
rule. require a longer CESSATION period
than young sows. One year young
SOW not yet year old. n two-year-old
SOW and a six-year-old SOW were all
bred on the same day, and all far
rowed pigs on the same date. have
kept record Of dates Of breeding and
of farrowing for the past ten years.
and thres days is the greatest variation
in date Of farrowing shown by these
records.
like to have my sows in good condi-
ton when the pigs come. am not
much afraid Of getting them too fat.
but there is quite difference between
the ordinary good condition and an
overfat SOW. sometimes think that
neglectful hog owners use the too fat
theory as an excuse for their neglect
to care properly for their hogs-Ameri-
can Agriculturist.
