WATER FOR POULTRY HOUSES
Handy Place May Be Provided by
Constructing Small Stand About
One Foot Above the Floor.

A convenient place should be pro-
vided in every poultry house for wa
ter. 1t is best to construct a small
stand about one foot above the floor
and place the water dish on this. The
stand can be constructed in the par
tition so that the hens in two pens
can drink from one dish. 1t is, how
ever, usually better to give each pen
a separate drinking dish. The water
stand should be placed where it is
light, and also where it is convenient
to empty the dish and refill it.
AS rule the water dish will keep
cleaner if near the south side of the
building, as the hens scratch the litter
toward the north much more than to-

The Anti-PaSS Measure.

In commenting on the passage OF the
cate says:
''At first thought such steps are COM
mendable; but in their second analysis
there is little 10 them. The Advocate
is unable 10 say whether or not legisla-
lion has been influenced by lobbyists, or
The giving of free passes, but it is self
evident fact Lnat If there are mem ers
in the Legislature so morally weak that
they can be purcha,ed with railroad
pass. or with the soft talk of a lobbyist,
other ways will be found by which they
may be handled when the free pass and
lobbyists are gone. The Legislature
should be composed of men of unques-
tionable moral integrity, actuated by
such a high sense of public duty that
they cannot be swayed out of the path
of right by flimsy influences
We hear.il lily agree with the Advocate
that the Legislature should be CON-
posed of 'men OF unquestionable moral
integrity" etc.
The legislator has no way of compen-
sating railroad for the pass it gives
him except by fasoring legislation in the
interest of the railroads. BY accepting
the pass he does not bind himself by 9
formal contract to favor the roads, bul
he places himself under such obi
cations that he is expected 10 at least b

VAUGHN

Under the winters snow, under the sod,
From loving arms to the kingdom of God.
Toll the bell softly in saddest refrain,
Angels will answer the unbroken strain.
Crown with flowers the young wife's
brow;
The sweet look of rest God giveth her
now
Is the heavenly crown, the immortal sign,
Placed with love by fingers divine.
Kiss the blue eyes that have fallen
asleep,
Henceforth this dear form the Savior
will keep;
And though to our sight the vision is
DER,
We know that she lives on the far away
shore.
The happy reunion-ah, who caBsdescry
The wisdom and trust OF the All-seeiug
eye!
The sadness and parting only we're given,
She lives with her mother this day in
heaven.
