PRIZE SERMON WAS DONE FOR
Presence Of Policeman Took the At
tention Of the Congregation From
the Words of the Pastor.

On a recent Sunday the pastor OF a
New York church preached a sermon
which he had hoped would be partic-
ularly effective. Shortly after launching
upon his theme he found that the au-
dience, while not creating any real
disturbance, was by no means atten-
tive. All Of his hearers kept turning
their heads every little while and
glancing furtively toward the rear of
the church. Finally the pastor cast a
penetrating glance Of his own into
that vague region. He discerned a
policeman sitting in a pew near the
door. Il knew then" he said, when
speaking of the incident afterward,
that the prize sermon was done for,
so far as it's hold on my congregation
was concerned. The policeman had
their attention until the end Of the
service. 1t Is a curious fact that no.
where does a policeman create such a
sensation as in a church. He may go
into a theater, a lecture room or a po-
litical meeting and nobody except the
obstreperously inclined pays any at
tention 10 him; but just let him step
inside a church, and he causes real
commotion. | don't know why. Ger

For Nerves.

A case Of nerves" is like bad
habit, easily acquired and hard to
get rid Of Nervousness affects the
digestion, dulls the eyes, giving a
strained look to the muscles Of the
face, and II allowed its course, will
even make the hair thin. So the wom-
an who wants to be beautiful must
keep an eye on the state Of her
nerves.
The best cure for nervousness IL
rest. Rest is an art known to few
women.
The only way a woman may re-
pose and relax the body and nerves
Is by actual will power.
Carrots are prescribed by physi-
clans and beauty doctors alike as a
cure for nervous indigestion. You are
told to eat them three times day,
either cooked or raw.
Young onions or solutions are ex,
cellent eaten with plenty of salt; also
lettuce with salt and plenty of olive
oil, but no vinegar and red pepper.
Sleeplessness is the greatest men
ace that tired or overweight nerves
have for beauty and health.
Sleep may be induced by warm
milk, slipped slowly, If this is in
effective, by long draughts of cool
water and a cold bandage around the
brow.

that the farmer who wants to raise
light harness horses will choose a
trotting bred sire, and dam in whose
veins flows a generous infusion of
their trotting or thoroughbred run
ming blood. This line of breeding
should bring desired results in the
way of colts which will later on de-
velop into road horses of a high
type.
There are some families of trotters
remarkable for their beauty of ap-
pearance and symmetry of form indi-

teams are of the standard trotting

of thoroughbreds that combine beau

horse, strictly thoroughbred, who In

(By j. M biIllA)
In spite of the marked increase in
use of automobiles all over the coun-
try, il is a well-known fact among
horse dealers that the right kind of
harness hors is scarce and high. The
real lovers Of horse flesh still evince
a lively sentiment regarding their
equine friend, and this sentiment ex-
PLOTS itself in a practical way by good
prices for the first class light har-
ness horse, or roadster.
Style, speed, conformation and dis
position are the firm cardinal requis-
ties of a high-class light, harness
horse, every quality above mentioned
is a necessary one and in order as
mentioned. Without these four &C.
complishments an animal of the road
sted class cannot command the top
notch price on the market, so 1t Is
greatly to the advantage Of the farm
er, who at the same time is a breed
er, to remember these requisites. 1t
may be safely said that without style
the light harness horse does not elicit

cannot keep pace with the times"
that without beauty of appearance or
conformation he will not set off hand
some trappings and eQuipage-and
lastly that lacking a docile DISPOSE
ton he is practically useless for the
purpose for which he is meant.
No animal used by man needs to
be so carefully handled and trained
as the roadster for oftentimes he is
driven by women and children there
fore upon his docilit.- depends the
safety of their lives.
In these days of horse TERRIERS
such as motor-cars. bicycles, traction
engines and the like, a horse must be
thoroughly broken to be sold as safe
or lady broke" He must be fearless
as far as all ordinary objects are con
cerned, yet he must be imbued with
the proper amount Of spirit when oc
casion demands.
AS it is a conceded fact among
horsemen that the American trottel
is the fastest light harness horse In
the world, 1t is natural to suppose

SELECTING AND
PREPARING SOILS
Good Supply of Decomposable
Organic Matter Helps Bacter-
ial Action of Plant.

Many people make the fatal mis-
take of expecting alfalfa to do well
on soils that are not fit properly to
produce any kind of crop, says Bull
letin SO of the Purdue university Qn-
diana) station. There is just as much
need of care in selecting and preparing
soils for alfalfa as for any other crop
and probably more. because of it's
deep roofing habits and large plant
food requirements.
Deep, loamy soils with open sub
soils are undoubtedly best for alfalfa,
but there is plenty of evidence to
show that it may be successfully pro-
duced on almost any type of soil.

operation with farmers throughout
Indiana, 6S out of SO clays, 167 out
Of 1873 loans, and SO out Of II sandy
soils gave satisfactory results.
Many soils that at present are not
fit for alfalfa culture may be made
SO by providing drainage facilities,
correcting acidity, adding organic
matter, or supplying needed plant
food, according to the requirements.
Good drainage Is essential in order
that the roots may go deep into the
soil. Hardpan must be broken up or
avoided altogether. Soils that are
sour may be made sweet by thorough
drainage and the application of lime.
A good supply of decomposable or.
ganic matter In the soil helps the
bacterial action in making plant
food available, facilitates the inocu
lating process. and together with a
good drainage prevents heaving in
the spring. For soils that are out OF
condition In this respect, a good way
to supply organic matter il sufficient
manure is not available is to raise
and pillow under a crop Of cowpeas
or some green manuring crop before
attempting to grow alfalfa.
Peat and muck soils may be used
for alfalfa IL they are well drained
and properly supplied with mineral
plant food. Potash is nearly always
lacking in these soils and often phos
phoric acid and lime must also be
supplied. Soils that are subject Il
flooding are not good for alfalfa

COMFORTABLE HENS
ARE The LAYERS
Anything in Poultry Line Finds
Market, but High Prices
Paid for Choice Goods.
CBy NJ. K. BOYER.)

Each year the poulterer better un-
derstands the care of poultry, knows
their wants and has discovered how TO
keep them comfortable. The comfort
able hens are the ones that do the
laying.
About thirty years ago when poultry
farming was young, as a business,
cry arose that it would not be long
before there would be such surplus
of stock that prices would go tumbling,
but Notwithstanding that there are
ten successful plants today to every
one thirty years ago and the demand
not half reached!
With the increase Of supply came
the increase of demand and today we
are no nearer meeting the demand
than we ever were.
However. there is change In the
market which must not be lost sight
of. Almost anything in the poultry
line sells, but the choicest prices are
alone given to the fancy goods"
The word fancy" implies more
than appearance. 1t means also quail
ity. Poultry and egg buyers are be-
coming particular. but they are willing
to pay for their goods. II they want
the brown eggs they will not take
white, and If they prefer the white
the brown ones offer no temptation.
The market today demands choice.
plump, fresh stock. Have you got it?
II so, the market is waiting for you.
We have today quite a number OF
breeds, and all, to certain extent, are
practical. But they will not, any one
of them, fill all the purposes, therefore,
it is necessary for a man to select only
such breeds as will best serve his
customers.
OF the entire list of breeds none
will meet the demands of Americans
so satisfactorily as do the American
varieties and in this class the most
popular are the Wyandottes, the Ply
mouth Rocks, with the Rhode Island
Reds closely following. Also our
American strains of Light Brahmas
and Leghorns.
The Brahmas belong to the Asiatic
class as breed, but the Light Brahma
as bred by our people is SO different
from that bred in England that one
would hardly suppose them to be OF
the same family. This is also true OF
the Leghorns, which belong to the
Mediterranean class.

Heat lightning is ascribed to distant
lightning flashes which are below the
horizon, but illuminate the higher
strata Of clouds, SO that their bright
ness is visible at great distances; they
produce no sound, probably in conse-
