TO TELL WHETHER w
ARE WELL OR AILiNG.
Loud Crow or CackIe Frequently Re-
reated Is One Sign of Vigorous
Health-Shape Of the Body Is
Also a Good Indication.

In an article in the poultry depart
ment Of 4 recen issue of Farm and
Fireside appears the following:
The actions Of Il fowl probably best
indicate its physical condition. The
physically weak is inactive and 'dopy"
and is more likely to squat than to
stand. 1t does not scratch or forage
actively. 1t is the last to get off the
perch in the morning and the first to
go to roost at night and frequently is
found on the perch during the day.
The loudness and frequency of the
crow of h male or the song or cackle
OF the female is a reliable indication
Of strength.
The weak fowl seldom crows or sings
and is less likely to do so when in the
presence of Il strong individual of the
anne sex. Calamity on the part of the
male is shown in his generosity and
consideration toward the females. as
indicated by his calling them and Civ
ing them the tenderest morsels TO eat.
This is one of the surest indications Of
physical yicor on the part of the male.
The shape Of the body is closely re-
lated to the health and physical vicor
Of the individual. The deep. thick, COM
pact body, with large fluff. shows
greater vigor than the slender, long
jointed, more delicate body of the
same variety. This is particularly no
ticeable in comparing the strong and
the weak males.
There Is an interesting correlation
between the various parts of a fowl.
which IS one Of the safest guides in Sc
lecting fowls on the basis Of vigor.
For example. a fowl Of low vitality is
likely to have a long, thin beak and
head: long. thin thighs and shanks;
long, thin toes. The reverse is true Of
the physically strong.

STIR UP THE SOIL NOW.
Fall Flowing Called Very Desirable by
Agricultural Experts.

Fall piowing Of LAM which has been
occupied by wheat or other small
grains and Of all land which has
been used for pasture more b a
three years In succession is urged by
the experts Of the Minnesota expert
ment station on such a variety of
grounds that would seem to make It.
if not an absolute necessity to success
in the operations of the following
year, at least extremely desirable.
The breaking up of the soil exposes
it more fully to the mellowing action
Of the air. sunlight and frost during
the colder half of the year and gives
greater opportunity for the settling of
the furrow slice. ~
Deep blowing fits the land to receive
and retain in larger measure the
moisture from rain and snow, putting
the surface in readiness for the fnal
disking and narrowing necessary for
this object In the spring. The labor
is more easily spared for blowing in
the fall than in the spring, and the
work is likely, therefore. to be more
carefully done.
The turning owe of the soil exposes
to the winter frost the roots Of a large
number Of weeds, thus promoting their
destruction.

HOME TRADE NECESSARY TO
TOWN BOOSTING THAT WINS.
Community Whose Residents Buy at
Local Stores Has Advantage Of
inestimable Value.

Home trade IS the prime requisite Of
successful town boosting. Without
home trade practiced as we'll as
preached town boosting will fall fiat.
The reason is obvious. Business makes
a town, lack of business kills a town.
Your natural ambition is to see your
town developing a healthy and steady
growth. and your natural a~cknowledg,
nent, when the matter is called to
your attention, will be that this is i'm
possible without an increasing number
Of local stores.
When you are ~patronizing stores Of
your town you are not only receiv-
ing as fair an equivalent for your mon
ey as you would from the mail order
concern whose 1owery and often
fraudulent advertisements make its
owners wealthy. but you draw a sub
stantial interest on the money ex-
pended. You may own property. 1t
will increase in value as the town
grows. If you are not a property owner
you will derive a benefit from home
trade. anyway. Business progress in a
small community is an incentive for
civic progress. and you will have a bet
ter town in every respect. No matter
who you may be, the wealthiest citizen
or the poorest. you can Go your share
in helping build up your town. Home
trade opens the opportunity for every
man.
When a man IS talking up the ad-
vantages Of his particular locality, In
the hope Of gaining a new industry,
a new s~torekeeper or a desirable new
citizen. his chances Of success are
much more promising II he can i'm
press his nearer with the telling argu-
ment that the town is on the sure
road to a great future and, therefore,
is n good place in which to do bust
ness. because its people spend their
money with the local merchants. That
kind Of spirit will make an instant
appeal.
But suppose the best the town
come here to live. it's so pleasant"
There are lots Of pleasant places, but
successful town boosting accomplishes
small Roadway with that single and
inane commentator.
Never too late to mend Is a motto
that holds coed in the argument for
home trade. 1t is never too late for
the people Of any town who have
been in the habit Of sending mail
orders for merchandise to be cured Of
this folly and civic indiscretion. But
the sooner they are cured OF this
weakness Of biting at the fowery mail
order advertisements and transfer
their patronage to local s~torekeepers
the sooner will they be in a position
to point with pride to the main street.
Of which they have been ashamed,
now undergoing the wholesome process
Of transformation into a real street
with busy stores. That is a COM
mendab BILE aim. and when this goal is
attained convincing arguments can be
driven home as to why others should
join such a prospecting and growing

ADOLPH STENTERTON at thirty

~ as a theatrical manager that
he owned two theaters. Every
thing seemed to come bis way. includ-
Ing requited love, for he was engaged
TO Miss Mildred Linn, the daughter
of Alonzo Bernhard Linn, a retired
merchant, perfectly able to portion her
of on the day Of her wedding. Every
thing was moving or oiled wheels
with Mr.. Stenterton when trouble
came as a result Of a bit OF careless
ness.
Mr.. Linn was possessed Of literary
tastes, which on his retirement he pro-
ceeded to cultivate. He wrote a novel
that proved quite a success. Then
his prospective son-in-law suggested
that be try his hand at a play. MIR.
Linn demurred on the ground that. not
having a knowledge Of stage require
ments. he would not know how to fit
his play for production IN the boards.
Mr.. Stenterton told him that he would
gladly ~collaborate with him in that re-
spect. Mr.. Linn consented.
At the time its author handed 1t in
for perusal the marriage between
Stenterton ana Miss Linn was being
planned to take place in the near flu
ture. Then for the first time it &C.
Cured to the young manager that a
criticism on a production of one whose
son-in-law he was abou. to become in
yolyed a rather delicate situation. Mr..
Linn had not shown himself amenable
to adverse criticism and if it were Of
fered might take offense and turn
against the critic on the V of his
wedding. Mr.. Linn vas amiable, wen
jovial. but , trifle vain of his talents.
Stenterton, when he went to his rooms
IN the evening he received the manu-
script. took it with him. He stopped
Oh the way at one of his theaters and
didn't reach his room till midnight.
1t was Il week before he found an op-
p%ortunity to read the manuscript. then,
after hunting for it in every nook and
Granny OF his rooms, came to the CON
clusion that it was lost. This was
the bit Of carelessness that brought
trouble.
The first thing he did was to make a
casual inquiry Of the author if he had
a duplicate copy of the play. When he
received no for an answer the bot
tom seemed to drop out of the universe.
and when Mr.. Linn added. I've done
a lot Of work on that play. and if yon
lose it III never forgive you" the
u man nearly Swooned. He
couldn't attend to business during the
day and couldn't sleep nights. Finally
Il plan-a desperate plan. it is true
suggested itself. He told Mr.. Linn that
he had read his play and had found it
immense. There WAS. however. Il want

disappear under a rewriting. He ad-
vised that this be done without seeing
the original manuscript Mr.. Linn con
sidered the matter, but finally decided
not to adopt the suggestion. Stenter-
toms last hope was dashed.
Weeks passed and the play was not
mentioned. The young couple set Q
day for the wedding. The parent de-
INJURED. he wanted to know when b
was to receive a reply to tho accept
ance Of his play. These Managers"
he said to his daughter, ARE making
us playwrights tired with their mat
tention. II my own son-in-law Is ca
pable Of treating me thus I'd rather
he wouldn't be my ~son-in-law."
One day Mr.. Linn. yielding to his
daughters solicitations, consented 10
forego the treatment he had received
from her fance SO far as to permit the
that for a wedding gift they must be
content with the play. He meant to
force Stenterton to get out Of It what
there was In 1t.
OF course this was a disappointment
to the young couple, but q great relief.
Arrangements for the wedding were
made, and, now that Mr.. Linn had sat
isfed his pride In the matter Of his
play, he seemed more amiab BILE with re-
spect to the approaching nuptials.
Your wedding present will make you
rich, Mildred" he said. Its worth
$4,000. and ! know It." Rats ex-
claimed Stenterton when he heard this.
He talks just like every other ANA
teur playwright. They all think there
is a fortune in their work; but, thank
heaven, I'm out Of the scrape!"
On the morning Of the wedding Mr..
Linn handed the pair a box which. he
said, contained their wedding present.
But | thought your play was to be
our present from you, papa" said Mil
dred. Have you relented?'
"Not at all. | said my play was
worth $4,000. You'll get nothing from
me except that"
Meantime Mildred opened the box.
There was the missing manuscript.
For heavens sake,' she exclaimed.
"How did you get it:' asked the
u man.
You left it In a carriage the even
ing / gave it to you. 1t had my name
on it. and it was returned to me-"
Meanwhile Mildred turned up the
first leaf Of the manuscript. Whats
this? A check for $50.000!.''
"Didn'ti tell you my play was worth
that sum- said the playwright.
Mildred threw her arms about her
fathers neck, while her lovers face
wore AL sorts of expressions from Silli-
ness TO Joy
After the wedding the manager read
the play and was so well satisfied with
its merits hat he desired to stage it.
But his iather-in-law said it was rub
DISH and would not consent.
