GOOD CARE IN HOT WEATHER
That Hens and Young Chickens
Have Plenty Fresh Water.

During the spring and summer
months constant care must be taken
to see that the hens and young chick
ems have plenty of water and shade,
says writer in the Iowa Homestead.
The hens cannot manufacture eggs
without a liberal supply of water, as
a large per cent. of eggs is composed
of water. The growing flock, too, will
not develop properly if half famished
from thirst. This may mean no win
ter eggs from the pullets.
If one would take the best care of
the flock he should give it fresh water
The water that stands in a fountain
very long becomes stale and un-
healthy. Water should always be
pure and the vessels clean. 1t is wise
to keep the water vessels in the shade
of the house or trees all the day.
This leads to the important question
Of shade. No fowls will do well in
warm weather without sufficient
shade. have made it a special point
to notice my hens in the summer, and
| have discovered that along toward
| the middle of the day they will seek
| shelter from the suns hot rays. They
will either retire to the shade of a
tree or the shelter of the poultry
house. They prefer to get away from
the house if they can find suitable
| shade elsewhere. If no trees are
growing in the yard and there are no
| bushes or shrubbery of any kind
,,-I..
will be well to construct an artificial
shade by setting posts into the
ground, one at each corner of par
allelogram plot. Nail crosspieces to
these and place boards on them. Here
| the hens may find retreat from the hot
sun.

Pearl will be-his all.
The wealthest or most talented per
son in the world could not obtain Il
share in that Kingdom if he kept back
one atom of his possessions; the price

The Parable of the Fish Net
We are not to think of the Kingdom
as Il net, but that the embryo King
dom resembles fishing experience
with net, in which We're gathered all
kinds of fish. This is a parable of the
embryo Kingdom because it relates to
a work done in this Age, in connec

some because religious systems are

of social. privileges and standing, 9th
ers because they would use religion as
a cloak for business enterprises, etc.
The parable tells us that when the
net was full it was drawn ashore" and
the fish sorted Then the fishing
ceased. Who can say that the oppor-
tunity for entering the net" as one of
the true "tish'' of the kind the Lord is
seeking may not he almost at an end?
Who can say that the Gospel Net, with
its full assortment of churchianity of
every style. will not soon be drawn
ashore that the suitable, the elect, may
be gathered into the Kingdom?

Full Protection Extended to Ameri.
cans In Nicaragua.
Washington, D. C.-The State de.
partment is determined to extend the
fullest measure of protection to
American life and property in Nicara-
qua. 1t was announced that if the
naval forces in that country, rein.
forced by the naval contingent now
being assembled at League Island, and
the several hundred blue Jackets en-
route to Corinto on the California and
the Denver, are not sufficient to as
sure that protection, more forces will
be rushed forward.
The State department is unmoved
by utterances in congress, relying i'm.
plicitly and confidently on the long
line of precedents, where American
military and naval forces have been
employed without congressional di-
rection in cases where American life
and property we're in jeopardy.
The officials say that is the sole pur-
pose of the landing of the marines and
blue-jackets in Nicaragua.
When the re-inforcements which
will be en- route to Nicaragua before
the end of the week have arrived al
their destination the navy will have
ashore in that country the most .nu.
merous force it has ever landed in ar
American republic in time Of peace.
