QUESTION.
Fayette Co., ALIAS 1 am a
reader of The Journal. 1 wish to
ask some advice concerning poul-
try. I wish you would tell me
through The Journal the, chicken
that you think is the best for the
farmer. 1 do not care for the color.
1 want some kind of large fowls
taht will grow off fast and are good
layers in the winter. and please
tell me where can get the ones
that you think would suit me best.
Please tell me where I can get the
best incubator and brooder.
Thanking you in advance, 1 am
M. f. b.
ANSWER.
The variety Of chickens that
person admires most are usually
the best for them to select, and
there is no one breed better than
the other. More depends on the
care and the breeding behind the
fowls than in the birds as to re-
suits that can be obtained from
them. If you want a general pur-
pose fowl any of the Plymouth
Rocks. Wyandottes, Rhode Island
Reds or Orpingtons are good. They
have plenty of size, grow off fast
and usually lay well. If eggs alone
are wanted either Leghorns or
Minorcas are good. You can find
the different fowls advertised in
The Atlanta Journal. and especial
ly the Sunday edition. You will
also find the advertisers Of incu-
bators in this paper, which will
give you best results.

Existing Circumstances Among
Some Georgia Farmers

CONDITION Of affairs this
year are very similar to
what it was six or seven
years ago, also fourteen years ago,
among the farmers Of this state,
and just so long as the farmers Of
this state depend absolutely on
their cotton crop to buy their sup
plies with and to furnish the
money for their. necessities this
state of affairs will come around
every five to seven years and you
need not doubt it. No farmer in
this or any other state can one year
after another expect to prosper by
making cotton to buy his home SUPP
plies and necessities of the farm
with. 1t may pan out all right one
year in five, but as rule, it can
not be depended upon.
There are not many things that,
a farmer can possibly plant on an
acre of good ground that will pay
a much better per cent of profit on
the investment than cotton, pro-
vided his acre will make one bale
of cotton off of every acre he
plants, but how few farmers and
troopers do this or can depend on

PARAs0L MATCHES THE HAT
That is, In the Latest Designs Il
Agrees With the Millinery Ac-
companyIna Il.
JULIA BoTToMLEY.

If the very decorative possibilities
of the parasol have been overlooked
of late. the warm weather has made
the fact clear that parasol adds the
last note of distinction to a dress. Ev
cry one interested in dress comments
upon the varied designs of this sum-
mer's parasols and upon the amusing
way in which each one agrees with
the shape of the hat that Is worn.
When feathers tower above the
crown of the chapeau the parasol
carried has an obliging cupola crown.
and II the millinery is of spreading
character then when the parasol is
opened 1t is seen that it is Japanese
like in its fat aspect.
Lace posed upon chiffon or yelled
with tulle Is combination Of mate.
rials of acknowledged elegance for the
sunshade. and 1t not infrequently hap
pens that a trail of mousseline flow
ers is posed inside the parasol, per-
chance to coincide with the trimming
decorate the gown.
OF freak handles there are always a
certain number, and one of the quaint
est Is the cuckoo clock. Press n
spring and the doors Of the cuckoo
clock fly open and the cuckoo appears
on the threshold. He is a silent bird,
for his trick begins and ends with
the little performance already de-
scribed.

Somewhat DIspeIIed the odor
of Romance.

Henne and Pecke were two henpeck-
ed married men. The other day they
met. and, after few casual remarks
concerning the weather, the subject
of women and unfortunate husbands
.was-perhaps naturally-discussed. To
Henne, however, suddenly came
thoughts of years ago. when he was
q happy bachelor, and (unconsciously
of what Fate had in store for him)
was walking out" a girl who was,
later on, destined to bring him sor-
row and misery.
Pecke, seeing a 'far-away" look In
