The Lesson Explained. Verses lila.
Equitable division.
This parable was spoken by Jesus
either in the house Of Zacchaeus,
somewhere in the city of Jericho
or on the road between Jericho
and Jerusalem. 1t is very probable
that the visit of Archelaus to Rome
forms the background of the parable.
On the death of his father, Herod. Ar
chelaus made a trip to Rome to have
Meanwhile a delegation of fifty from
Judea went to Rome and made a rep
r%esentaton of the evil deeds that had
marked the reign of Herod and urged
that the nation should be delivered
from the tyrannical rule of this family.
All this took place about thirty years
previous to the time when Jesus refer
red to 1t. Jesus was speaking to a
company Of enthusiastic pilgrims who
were on their way to Jerusalem to at
tend the passover. "Kingdom of God
should Immediately appear" Many of
the company had the delusion that the
Messianic hope would be realized as
soon as Jesus entered the Holy City.
This parable was spoken to dampen
such misdirected ardor and to point
out that until the kingdom comes.
whenever that may be, certain mani
fest obligations must be diligently dis
charged. "A certain nobleman." This
parable reminds us of the parable of
the talents, but there are many differ
ences between the two. and they en-
phasize separate truths. The parable
of the pounds teaches that equal OPP
portunities with unequal diligence in
their use result In unequal rewards,
the parable of the talents that unequal
opportunities with equal diligence
bring equal rewards. "A far country"
As we have seen, this sentence is col

FEEDING OF TURKEY P0ULTS
SHOULD BE LEFT TO THE HEN
II You Should Decide to Do u roI'o"
the Mothers Advice and GIVE
Little, but Often.

Mother Turkey should hatch. brood
/ and do most of the feeding of poults.
and the first thing to do when little
turks are Matched Is not to feed them,
hut to look for lice on them and their
| mother and to give them all a good
busting with Persian insect powder.
Put them in a roomy pen with SOD
for floor, this pen to be moved around
often so they do not sleep on same
spot.
See that water drains away from
COOP. and surround 1t with enough
screen to make a fair sized YARD,
where they may run on short grass.
First select the right feed; then han
die it with care.
Remember, you are about to build a
big fowl with large frame, muscles,
much blood, big organs and heavy
plumage.
Then the turkey, too, is semiwild. 1t
comes from a race that lived In the
woods mainly on natural protein, II
its digestive organs are especially 1T
ted to digest just such food.
You must follow Mother Turkeys
advice, Feed little. but often.
You should not feed for at least
thirty hours after hatch, nor never as
much as turks want, Eel though they
do squeal and chase you all over the
place.
You simply feed the little birds long
enough to get started right and then
let Mother Turkey do most of the rest
until fattening time.
We find nothing better to start turks
on than fresh, dry, steel cut, pinhead
oatmeal. Throw a little of this down
first two days. Serve them dry bread
soaked in sweet milk and then almost
squeezed dry.
Give them a meal of fresh cottage
cheese and dry sweet bread, equal
parts.
Take a hard boiled egg Zone to eight
poults) and the same amount OF bread
and as much tender onion tops or ten
der dandelion leaves, chop together and
serve that as a meal.
Make oatmeal a standby. Go from
that to cracked red wheat and then to
whole wheat, and then shove them off
on to Mother Turkey, giving them
something at supper time to get them
into the habit Of coming home nights.
Remember these points: Feed little,
but often; feed builder; don't stuff
them; keep down lice and follow ma
ture.

BEAVERS INCREASING IN WEST

Beavers are increasing in ltasca park,
Minnesota, so rapidly that the busy
little animals are crowding each other
out of the park owe to privately own
ed lands, and il is reasonable to expect
that Minnesota some day may produce
as many beaver pelts as in the days
when the north woods were the happy
hunting grounds of the trapper and pot
hunter. At present there Is a closed
season ON beavers. and where game
wardens or forest rangers are near the
highly priced little animals are almost
as safe as in the Itasca preserve. Some
day they will be SO numerous that trap
ping may be permitted under certain
restrictions without any danger of ex-
termination.
The beaver colony in Itasca park be-
gan about fifteen years 6 with a
group of three presented by the gov
eminent of Manitoba to the state of
Minnesota, and the animals promptly
were liberated in Itasca park in the
hope hat they would multiply and as
sist in the movement to restore their
kind, which was all but extinct in the
state because of the rapacity of the
white trappers.
For some time it was not known
whether the little family was alive or
not, as their natural timidity was in
creased many fold by their strange sur
roundings. and not a glimpse was OBJ
tanned of them for a long time.
At the approach of winter a beaver
house was reared, and then the for
ester in charge of the park knew that
the little animals were safe. Since
then they have multiplied year by year,
and it is estimated that there are now
more than 300 full grown animals in
the park, while that many more prob
ably have formed colonies outside.
Meanwhile beaver colonies are in
creasing rapidly In several parts of the
state, principally through the observ-
ance of the game laws by settlers.

PHONE WEATHER REPORTS 4
London as well as Berlin will shortly
have a telephone weather report serv-
ice. A scheme has been under consid-
Grafton by the meteorological office for
a long time. All that now remains is
to make a satisfactory arrangement
with the ~postoffice. Mechanically, of
course, there is no difficulty. The morn
ing and evening weather reports could
be distributed to the telephone ex-
changes, which would communicate
hem OIL request to subscribers.
The real difficulty is one Of account
ancy. In Berlin the extra charge for
the weather report over the telephone
is said to be a penny, which is col
lected by the postman on his rounds.
For several reasons that method would
be hardly practicable in London.
1t is over this and similar questions
that the meteorological and post offices
are at present negotiating. But it is al
most certain that the new service will
be in full working order some time this
summer.
Eventually the system will be ex-
tended throughout the country.

BOSTON FOR SAFETY FIRST

their children to remember safety

tiers to parents, says among other
things:
Teach your children what the
streets are for-that streets are for
travel and traffic, by cars, automobiles,
trucks and wagons; that they are not
Fairgrounds for children.
There are Fairgrounds and parks
where your girls and boys may play
In safety; play in the streets is costly
In the lives of children. Better be
safe than sorry.
Teach your children how to use the
streets-to look both ways before
crossing; then to cross quickly and
without fear; not to get frightened at
approaching vehicles and try to run
back or dodge between them. Fear is
often fatal; assurance comes from
care"

be carried on through the autumn.
