TIL STALLION
SCOTLAND"

How much the name has to do with
it we cannot say, but certainly, go where
you will, no stallion can be found with
the magnificent contour of form, free
and easy action when called upon, or
fine trotting gait, if urged, equal to the
stallion of above name, bred and owned
by Mr.. Battell of Middlebury.
Mr.. Battell keeps here four stations,
all of them valuable and all young; but
none of them equal to the one first
mentioned, which, so far as we know,
every n who has seen, without hest
tation, declares to be the handsomest
horse in the World. No exceptions
are admitted.
But, perhaps, better than this is the
fact that his first colts, only two years
of age, and of which there are but
three, excel equally in their ability tC
trot.
Scotland has a full brother Of about
the same size that perhaps may equa
Scotland's gait, but cannot surpass thai
of his colts.

THE POULTRY DOCTOR SAYS

Corn is o chick builder, but fat
tener, and is not healthy feed for
young or old stock if fed generously.
Chicks should have much protein, and
corn is too heating for summer when
cooling food is needed.
Dirty water vessels and those in
which milk has soured are a frequent
cause of chick mortality and should
be scalded frequently. Water made
warm and stale in the sun Is not rel
ished by fowls and is detrimental.
Irregularity in watering fowls is not
only cruel, but brings Oh indigestion.
Gorging with water, like gorging with
food, causes mortality and is a fire.
Quent cause of diarrhea. Sun and
shade are both enjoyed by fowls, but
too much of either is an injury. Nat
ural shade is best, but where not pres
ent artificial shade can be easily pro
vided and shade for water vessels as
well. Fowls confined should have reg
ular greens in generous quantity, es-
pecially in summer, when green food
is so essential and nature is so lavish
providing the same. Plenty Of green
food is essential for hen health. and
eggs and chicks must have it t.
thrive.

WHY BUILD GRANGE HALLS7
Account of What Some Of the Oranges
In Ohio Arc Doino AIonq This Line,

wv h EN~1 '
State Lecturer L. J.. Taber of the
Ohio state grange has been gathering
some interesting statistics about
grange halls in that state, and what
he says should interest members Of
the Order in every state. He says that
throughout Ohio today the III oranges
that own their halls have an average
membership of over 100. while the 400
and more oranges hat do not have a
home have an average membership Of
only forty-five. The oranges owning
their halls have more than doubled
their average membership. We find
that oranges with halls have most of
the Libraries and musical instruments
and that the character of the lecture
hour and per cen Of attendance Is
much higher. More than a score of
oranges are now building or planning
to build new halls.
Mr.. Taber gives an interesting ac-
count of the construction Of the new
grange hall of Leroy grange, which is
34x66 feet and two stories high. The
second story contains the audience
room. juvenile grange room and mems
room. On the first floor is the kitchen.
dining room and pantry. OF almost
equal interest with the hall is the
horse barn. 20 by 1870 feet, accommodate
ing Mt least 100 horses. rigs and autos
Five or six years = they found that
they could get "A basket factory for
5000 which could easily be remodeled
They raised what money they could
and issued $500 worth of stock among
the members. They paid cash for the
property and began to remodel it. The
entire membership donated time with
out stint. and fortunately in the mem.
bership were carpenters, plasterers
and painters. The young people held
socials and entertainments every few
weeks; the sisters gave suppers and
banquets for the hall fund. AS soon
as funds would warrant some new i'm,
provement would be added. until the
hall was ready for dedication on their
tenth anniversary nearly free from
debt.
When Leroy grange purchased the
hall the membership was very weak,
but during the struggle to finish the
hall each year saw a net gain in mem
bership, until they now number over
$50 loyal Patrons. This hall Is of
great value to the entire township, fur
nishing a community center, a place
for public meetings and giving the
boys and girls a place for entertain
ments.
