Stevens and Muse looked with sur

because the tree Is the natural roost-

woman in Virginia who raised about
zoo turkeys every year and they all
roasted in two large trees in the yard
ut the rear of the house. An inclined
board is placed against the tree so
that the poults can get into it when
they are quite young. Many Of them
continue to walk up the plank to the
first branches even after they are
fully grown while the others use their
wings TO reach the branches.
Young turkeys cannot thrive In
damp quarters. They should be well
ventilated and placed where they will
get plenty OF sunshine
Young turkeys should never be hur-
ried or driven home or quickly forced
into. the poultry house. They are do

find their roosting places and settle

and he must buy new one to replace
her. At the end of the second three
years the young COW would be twelve
years old. and would have to be sold
for about $40, while the second old
COW would bring about the same price.
Reckoning the interest on the mon
ey invested, the amount would be
$2160 for the purchase of the young
COW, and S17 for the interest on the
cost of the two old cows, difference
of $3.50 in favor of the two old cows.
Bat the large average product of the
young COW during the first three years
would no doubt in most cases more
than overbalance the difference.
Some buyers prefer to get old cows
because the animals, then being fully
developed, they are able to readily
judge of their milk-producing quail
ties. They argue that the old cows
will stand heavy granting. and some
times such COWS are MIXED only one

In figuring on the relative value of
young and old cows there are a great
many things to be taken into account,
says a writer in the Farm Progress.
The general impression is that a
young cow of the same grade is more
desirable than an old one. and with
the most breeds this is generally the
case. But It is better to purchase an
old COW of good grade when moder-
ate amount of money is to be invest
ed than to purchase young cow that
never would be, profitable.
The young COW of poor breed would
yield very little profit for many years.
during which time she must be fed.
while the older COW which is pur-
chased for the same consideration will
yield good profit during the few re-
naming years.
It stands nowadays that pure-bred
milk COW six years old might be worth
$50 in the market, whereas a COW of
her same grade nine years old will
bring only $40. II buyer makes a
purchase OF milch COW for $50 the
interest at sir per cent. for three
years would be $1,000. II he buys an
old COW the interest for three years
at six per cent. would be $500.
It can be readily seen that at the
end of that. time this young COW would
be an old one. While his old COW

Speaking at the new lord mayors

Prime Minister Asquith made the
emphatic statement that he believed
1t to be the general opinion of Europe
that the Balkan states should not be
robbed of the fruits OF their victory.
Premier AsQuith referred to the
unsuccessful efforts of the powers to
prevent the conflict and to the great
changes the war had made in the map
of Europe, and continued:
In these anxious times It is salts

Why Should Use
CutiCul'a Soap?

"Thcre is nothing the matter
with my skin, and | thought
Cuticura Soap was only for skin
troubles" True, it is for skin
troubles, but its great mission is
to f,r5rnt skin troubles. For
more than a generation its deli
cate cmollient and prophylactic
properties have rendered it the
standard for this purpose, while
its extreme purity and refreshing
fragrance give to it all the advan-
tages of the best of toilet soaps.
1t is also invaluable in keeping
the hands soft and white, the hair
live and glossy, and the scalp
free from dandruf and irritation.
While it's first cost is a few cents
more than that of ordinary toilet
soaps, 1t IS prepared with such care
and of such materials, that it wears
to a wafer, often outlasting several
cakes of other soap, and making
its use, in practice, most econom-
ical. Cuticura Soap is sold by
druggists and dealers everywhere,
but the truth of these claims may
be demonstrated without cost by
sending to "Cuticura," Dept. M.
Boston, for a liberal sample
c@ke. together with a thirty-two-
re book on the skin and hair.
