crop will be; the worry will be much
less and the net returns far greater.

MANAGING THE TURKEY
ALL HAVE STREAK or WlLpssEss
IN THEIR NATURES
Birds VIII Net Do Well n There Ia
Too Much Management in Rails
Ing-Free Ranse Is One Of Most
Important Factors.

The turkey is the only one Of our
domestic fowls that originated in
America While the chicken has been
bred up from the wild jungle cocks
and hens of Southern Asia, the white
men found the turkey here when they
came. And the turkey has changed
very little In the three or four CEN
turtles since the first Caucasian came
to America.
Turkeys all have q streak of wild
ness in their natures. A turkey hen
will always do better when she is al
lowed to steal her nest II left undis-
turbed she will bring of much bet
ter matches than if interfered with by
well-meaning poultry keepers, says a
Kentucky writer in Farm Progress.
These wild birds resent interference,
and many times have known them
to desert thier nests when molested
I always let them alone until after
the brood has been brought of. In
their wild state they are able to rear
their young very well. as they run In
woods and along streams where the
underbrush and weeds do not inter-
fere with them. In fields and around
farm houses it is best to keep them
up for week or ten days after hatch
ing The young turks are not able to
stand being dragged through wet grass
and weeds wet with dew.
Anyone who understands turkey ma
ture can make some profit from the
breeding of these birds If there is room
for them to have considerable range.
AS bird for yards and coops the tur-
key is distinctly out of place. l have
never known anyone to raise them
successfully in confinement, and doubt
if such thing is possible.
Akin to Wild Turkey.
The bronze turkey is very closely
akin to the wild turkeys still found
in small focks in various parts of the
country When Columbus returned
to Spain after his first voyage to
America he took with him few Of
these beautiful birds Later voyagers
took great many Of them to Spain,
and from there they were taken to
England.
| The Old World has been raising these
domesticated birds longer than we
have, but four centuries of confne-
ment and breeding have failed to breed
all the wildness out of their natures.
The bronze turkey. direct descend
ant Of the wild turkeys Of tropical
and sub-tropicai America, Is the larg-
est of these birds now grown. The
old traits of wildness, caution and a
tendency to hide when about to set,
are still characteristic of the bird.
Some of the bronze turkeys reach a
weight of As pounds. which seems
greater than any. birds of the wild
varieties. Careful and selective breed
ing has increased the weight and deep
| ened the colorings and plumage mark
ings.
Dark eyes, coppery bronze and
glistening black plumage, offset and
heightened by white markings at the
| feather tips, are some of the most
notable characteristics of the bronze
turkey. The basic color of the plumage
is black, and over this plays combi-
nation of iridescent green's and cop
perry lights.

HINTS FOR THE DUCK RAISER
Twenty DuckIines In Flock is Plenty
as They Are Rather Easily In
jured by Overcrowding.

Do not overcrowd the ducklings.
Twenty In a flock is quite enough.
Their joints are very tender and easily
slipped out of place and for this rea-
son 1t is not safe to keep too many in
a yard. 1t is also a bad plan to allow
other stock to run with them.
When frightened a fat duckling is
apt to fall over on its back and If not
turned over it will lie there and die
as it cannot get up from that position
by itself
Here is a good ration for feeding
young ducks: Bread soaked In milk,
bran Of equal quantity mixed to the
right consistency with middlings.
Ducks must have green food Of
some kind, and If they cannot have a
run on tender grass give them
sprouted oats.
Don't overfeed the ducks with stuff
that will swell and clog. Keep them
supplied with plenty Of water both
night and day.

CAMPFIRE GIRLS
LAUDABLE WORK
Admitted One Of Big Move
ments Of Country.
MEMBERSHIP INCREASING.

Organization Primarily Related to
Home and Social Life-Gives Honors
and Awards Ranks Based Mainly
Upon Achievements of Every Day.
Firemaker High Order.
When in the spring Of 1911 a meet
ing was held to consider the advisa-
bility of forming an organization which
should do for girls what the boy
scouts were doing for boys the pro-
motors never dreamed that the organi-
cation which was brought about-the
Campfire Girls-would grow to such
splendid proportions and would present
such fine possibilities. The Campfire
Girl movement today is one of the
big things of the country. Among
those active in the initial movement
were William Chaucey Langdon, Mrs.
Charles 81. Farnsworth, Dr. and Mrs.
Luther 81. Gulick, Professor Mary
Schenck Woolman, DR.. Anna Brown,
Mrs. Ernest Thompson Seton, Lee r.
Hammer, James E. West, Mrs. Angus
tus Traut and Miss Lima Beard.
Preliminary work was done during
the summer and fall During the fol-
lowing winter manual was prepared,
funds were secured and an organiza-
ton created and Offices opened. 1t was
publicly announced on March IL, 1912;
up to Dec. 1. 1913, 4.O4l guardians had
been appointed. over 10000 girls en-
rolled and campfres started in every
state and territory in the Union. This
budget for 1913 was $33.393.
The following PERSONS have been
mainly responsible for financial sup
port:
Mrs. G. B. Alexander, Mrs. Sidney G.
Borg, George T. Brokaw. Andrew Car
negie, Charles Henry Davis. Cleveland

Rockefeller. DIR. E. A. Rumely, Mrs.
Russell Sage. Mortimer L. Schif and
MIS-. Finley ]. Shepard
Girls Over Twelve Eligible.
Any girl over twelve years of age
may join a campfire and become q
Campfire Girl. Local campfres consist
Of not over twenty members, in charge
of woman who stands as leader in
Ter community and who is called 1.-THE
guardian of the fire." In addition to
daily activities the girls have weekly
meetings and council fire once
month for the awarding of honors and
comforting Of ranks.
The organization is primarily related
to home and social life, hence it should
usually consist of girls of about the
same age, who naturally belong to-
gether. whose homes are near one an
other and who like one another. The,
best results are secured by having the
guardian and the group socially homo
geneous.
AS the activities and responsibilities
OF campfire girls are not adapted for
girls under twelve. an auxiliary or
ganization. the Campfire Bluebirds, has
been formed for the younger sisters
and their friends. Any girl over six
years old may join nest of Rluebirds.

The Chess Autematon.

Baron Won Kempelen. at the begin
ming of last century, travelled through
Europe with what he described as an
unbeatable chess automaton in the like
ness of Turk. Kempelen used to con-
ceal a man in the chest on which the
Turk was seated, but so ingenious was
the continuance that for a long time
everybody was deceived. Napoleon
played chess with the pseudo-automa-
ton when stopping at Schoenbrunn aft
er the battle Of Wagram. He lost the
first game and in the second deliberate
~ made two false moves. The pieces
were replaced each time. but ON the en-
peror making third false move the
Turk swept all the pieces off the board.
