GOLDEN TEXT-"Jesus said unto

This parable marks the high level
of the year of popularity in the life of
our Lord. 1t is such an important
miracle as to be the only one recorded
by all four gospel writer's.
The returning disciples (v. 800 are
urged by the Master to come with him
into a desert place that they might
rest, and also that he might comfort
their hearts over the death of John
the Baptist. They had no leisure
Jesus knew the need and also the
proper use of leisure. But the multi
tude would not grant this and flocked
to his retreat in the desert. They saw
and followed that they might listen
to his gracious words or behold some
new wonder. but Jesus also saw and
ministered, v. "a. Carlisle said he saw
in England forty millions, mostly
fools" Not so with Jesus. He saw
and was moved. not with sarcasm, but
with compassion, which compassion
took n tangable form of service. 1t is
interesting to note in verse "a that the
compassion of Jesus led him first of
all to teach. 1t is better to teach a
man how to help himself than to help
the man. We also infer from this
verse that the soul of man is of
more value than his body. 1t is not
enough, however. to say, God bless
you, be fed and warm" when a man
is hungry. So it is that Jesus listened
TO his diciples when they saw the
physical need of the multitude.

GIVE HENS CHANCE TO WORK
They Will Take All Necessary Exsr-
else II Given opportunity-Must
Have Something to Scratch.

It is not necessary to compel fowls
to exercise-they will do 1t them
selves II they are given the oppor-
tunity. All they need is good run
or a scratching shed, and litter into
which has been scattered some small
grains, and they will work without
being forced to do so.
It Is absolutely necessary, however,
to give them something in which to
work, and something for which to
work. Fowls will not. as q rule, work
industriously and scratch in nothing
and be rewarded with nothing. II
they are on a range they can secure
work for themselves, but when penned
up they must be given a good scratch
ing shed and plenty Of litter to
scratch In.
The seeds which they find will not
take the place of their regular meals,
but act as a portion of the food, and
also assist them to take the proper
exercise.

Poultry Hook.

of the fright and injury which usual
ly occur when fowls are chased, says
the Orange Judd Farmer. The one
used by the New York experiment
station at Ithaca and described in bull
letin 2S4 is an improvement on the
common style. It differs from the
common one, first because the wire is
SO fortified and braced that it remains
practically rigid, and second, the
hook end is SO bent that 1t permits
the shank of the fowl to be easily
caught and effectively held without
injury, owing to the aperture entrance
which prevents the shank from being
easily withdrawn, and the large
aperture, which gives freedom Of ac-
ton, while the shank is held. The
shank, however, is easily released by
the attendant. The hook is made from
q broom handle and six-foot piece Of
No. 10 steel wire, which can be easily
bent into the proper shape. The wire
is less conspicuous than the wooden
end, which attracts the fowls atten-
ton while the hook catches the shank.
The fowl is then gently drawn from
the flock and the foot released.

large wire (A) about eight inches
from the wall ON each side and about
four inches lower than you wish the
top Of the roost to be. These wires
should be passed through small holes
bored in the walls at each end Of the
house, stretched good and tight, and
fastened ON the outside.
Then suspend the rings (RRR)
from the rafters by means Of wires
(BBB) so that they will barely touch
the wire A, then make the rings
(RRR) secure to the wire A by means
Of small wires wrapped around each
ring and the wire A. After similar
structure has been made on the other
side, the arrangement is ready for the
poles, which should be smooth sap
lings from three to four inches in
diameter and cut nine inches shorter
thanswidth Of the house, so that they
may be easily taken In and out Of the
rings.
Besides being vermin-proof, this
roost has the advantage Of being
easily constructed and sanitary from
the fact that the roosts do not have
to be fastened to the wall, or other
support which would catch the drop
pings.

Crowding is bad, whether in the
house or on the roosts.
A poultry house without grit box
and dust bath is incomplete.
One of the prime causes of roup in

Breeding stock can be bought now at

Grit must be provided even when
hens are on range; the grit hopper
should be kept filed.
It is not a good plan to force the
breeders for laying; 1t is apt to cause
infertility in the eggs.
