PIcK-UPS AROUND THE FARM
Some Excellent Suggestions That VIII
Beautlfy and Make the Home
More Comfortable.
By F. H. swEET.)


Prune Towering shrubs as soon as
they have finished Towering. The
secret of pruning shrubbery, in nut
shell, is to study the habit of growth
of each plant, and to strive to encour-
age 1t; not alter it to your views.
Make note of the yellow spots
in the lawn. If the grass is scanty,
the trouble is probably sand or poor
soil. The best cure is to dig out the
place. and put in some good loan.
To insure a thick privet hedge, cut
back three inches every time the
plants make six inches of growth.
Always keep on the lookout for pos
sible mountaineering places, rain
barrels, up-turned cans, low places in
roof cutters, and liquid manure tubs.
Drain of or apply kerosene.
Make notes this year to guide you
in next years planting plans. If you
see shrub or flower that you admire,
find out the name and variety If pos
sible.
Replace rotten wood floors and posts
with concrete, and the work is done
for all time.
Gravel roads and walks that refuse
to get solid. can be greatly improved
by the judicious use of clay. Pull
vertze the latter. and sprinkle evenly.
Too much clay viii make a sticky road
in wet weather, which is far worse
than a soft-gravel road.
Keep all the fence corners cleaned
out. More vermin are harbored there
than anywhere else on the place.
By ordering the various dutch bulbs
tulips, crocuses, narcis-
sus. daffodils-early. and by enabling
your nurseryman to book his order,
you can usually get better prices and
quality.
Pinch off the seed-pods from azaleas
and rhododendrons to insure good
flower buds for next year.
Give Japanese iris plenty OF water
TO insure good blooms.
Use lawn clippings as a mulch for
rose bushes.
With nearly all plants It Is neces-
sary to keep the flowers cut to pro
long the bearing season. This 10

ONE HOT WEATHER TROUBLE
When DIarrhea First Makes Its APP
pearance It May Be Checked by
Use Of Charcoal.

By H. B. SPECIFY
Diarrhea is one of the most COM
mon hot weather troubles in poultry
Of all ages, and when it makes its
first appearance, charcoal freely fed
may check or control the disorder. d.
arrhea may be due to food or drink
ing water being foul with droppings
or other filth; to feeding impure,
musty and moldy food; to overhead
ing; to feeding in dusty, musty or
moldy litter; to unclean quarters and
dampness; to overlooking on meat
food or feeding spoiled meat; to eat
ing poisoned substances or to indiges-
ton from any cause. The first thing
to do when diarrhea makes its ap-
pearance is to find the cause and re-
move it. Drinking from filthy pools
in Unclean runs after sudden show
er, or drinking barnyard seepage is
common cause of diarrhea in hot
weather.

CAUSE of Bowel rrouhIea

Bowel troubles in calves are some
times caused by milk that is excessive
ly rich. Milk that is moderate or low
in butter fat is usually better for
young calves. Indigestion In older
calves is usually due to uncIean yes
sells, close confinement in dark, un-
sanitary stalls and irregular or ex-
cessive feeding. In some cases it
appears to be due mainly to sheer
weakness and inability to digest.

and roughage the cost of milk per
gallon was 11.2 cents. When on q

addition of cottonseed meal, the cost
of milk was 1913 cents per gallon, but
the quantity was slightly decreased.
In another test the cost Of milk pro-
duction on ration Of barn, corn crop,

rather rejoice together and give thanks
to God that our chains at last are
breaking. Let us remember Saul of
Tarsus as an illustration of how
good man, misled of the Adversary,
became prosecutor of the Church of
Christ As he was freely forgiven of
God, and showed himself loyal serv
ant Of the King of kings, so let us re-
gard others of our day as equally loyal.
and let US trust that they will become
equally faithful as they come under
the influence of the great light from
Heaven, now shining.
Put Away, Therefore, All These.
st. Paul urges us, as children of the
light, to walk in the light Jesus bids
us to let our light so shine before 9th

Their In Heaven St. Peter says that
we shall show forth the praises of
Him who has called us out of darkness
into His marvellous light. The light
that is now shining upon the pathway
of Gods faithful people is not new
light. 1t is the same light which Jesus
and the Apostles held forth and rejoic
ed in. For the time being, it has been
lost. buried under the rubbish and SUI
perstition and error of eighteen centu-
ries. Now. in Gods providence, these
distractions are being seen. We are
coming out from under their influence
into the sunlight. the true light, which
shall yet tighten every man, as Gods
Word has promised
The question with each and all of us
who now perceive the source of the
darkness In which we have been and
the source of the light into which we
have come is, What shall We render
unto the Lord for all His benefits?
How shall we best show to our gra-
cious Lord our appreciation Of His gra-
cious character. of His true Plan of
Salvation? The Scriptures assure us
that we can best show our love and
loyalty by improving the opportunities
which the Lord affords us for witness
ing for Him and His Truth. which rep
resents Him.
Our time, our talents. our privileges.

NEW YORK, March 10.-More
than 100 young women teachers,
most of them brides of few
months, are directly interested in
the fight in the city board of
education over whether Mrs.
Katherine Campbell Edgell, physi-
cal director of the Erasmus Hall
high school in Brooklyn, is to
have a years leave of absence.
Mrs. Edgell, who is the wife of
a fellow teacher, frankly says
that she wants the year off so that
she can become mother. She
declares that other teachers have
received lengthy furloughs for
the same purpose, but none have
had the bravery to tell the real
reason.
The high school committee of
the board of education has recon-
mended that the application be
granted. If it is, it is certain
that the board will be over
whelmed with applications from
other teachers.
But the members of the board
of education are on record as bit
terly opposing the plan.
Whether her application is
granted or not, Mrs. Edgell will
leave school. AS matter of fact
