Those who have attended the
Chautauqua this as in all previous
years, find their interest increasing
and their ideas broadened, and their
minds more developed, in addition
to high order Of entertainment en-
joyed by them. They will pleasantly
remember this annual mass meet
ing, and will look forward with
fond expectations for the next
coming of this feast of reason
flower of wit, humor and music.
Truly the Chautauqua has become
a central attraction of great import
ance to this or any other commune
ty where held, as lis largely educa-
tional in civic and social duties and
obligations, and in religion largely
supplanting the old time camp
meeting,as a religious spirit prevails
throughout the entire program. And
from its teaching is gathered the
idea that all sound learn is sacred
and that the secular, every day
business life may be pervaded by
religion. The "Chautauqua idea"
of which much has been said and
written. is best expressed by Bish-
op Vincent, who says, "Chautauqua
pleads for universal education; for
plans of reading and study; for all
legitimate enticements and incite-
ments to ambition; for all necessary
adaptations as to time and topics;
for ideal associations, which shall
at once excite the imagination and
set the heart aglow. A college is
possible in everyday life if one
chooses to use it; a college in home;
shop, street, farm, market for rich
and poor, the curriculum of which
runs through all of life, a college
which trains men and women every
where to read and think and talk
and do; this is the "Chautauqua
idea."-Huntsville Herald.

HINTS OF DUCKS AND GEESE
DuckIing Should Be Marketed Before.
Twelve Weeks old-Same lie
Said of Gosllngs.

A Pekin duckling weighs about two
ounces when Matched, and should
take on weight as follows: Three to-
four weeks, one pound; six to eight
weeks, four to four and one-half
pounds; and at ten weeks, five and
one-half to six pounds. Ducklings
should be marketed at from nine to
twelve weeks OF age. After that they
take on weight slowly, and 1t is not,
profitable to keep them longer than
twelve weeks.
Geese grow about as Yapidly as
ducks. Allowance of course must be-
made for the original difference in
size-newly Matched goslings weigh
Ing about four ounces. Turkeys do
not grow rapidly at the start, but de-
velop much quicker after three
months of age.
