New Jersey Agri Experiment Station.
 Constitutional vigor means health, vitality and stamina common to strong, well bred birds, the lack of which makes poor breeders and unprofitable would result in better birds and more profit than mating and selecting breed CTS for vitality If for no other charac- tertstio. A good hen is expected to lay in one year five times her body weight in eggs which means about cuanpifsh this she must consume and assinilate thirty times her body weight in food Therefore the laying hen must be exceptionally strong, vigorous animal to stand up under such strain.
 Sians Of Lack of Vitality.
 Tine following are some of the con &Tfbutery causes to lack of vitality: Increased productiyeness without prop CT care, too close fmbreedirg without regard for vigor, the use of bullets in stead of mature hens for breeding, heavy feeding or forcing foodstuffs, excessive crowding or congesting of breeding stoclx( lack of exercise for breeding or laying stock, careless and improper methods of matching and failure to use due care in selection of breeding stock which possess superior physical vigor.
 The action and movement Of birds probably indicate best their physical aunditton, as the physically weak are inactive, dull and genrally nope around rather than range to any ex- tent in search of food or scratch for xrains which are fed in litter for the express purpose of keeping the birds busy. Weak birds are usually the longest on the perch. going on early at ni9ht and coming of late in the morn ing and in extreme cases spending most of the day on the perch. The bird which is off the perch first in the morning and the last one on at night 1s in every case the one to keep for breeding and laying, and the loud and A~duent growing of the male and the eackling of the female are indications of physical strength and superiority.
 There arc certain body signs indicat- ing lack of vigor. They are long, ehing neck: thin, long beak: marrow head; Iong slender body lacking depth; long legs and thighs which give the bird a suited appaarance., knock knees and sunken or depressed eye. The strong bird at any age should have R bright, prominent eye; well develop cd body, which Is deep ana wide. glos- sy, neat plunaSe, bright comb and Waftles, erect carriage and should be active and aprightiy in all jas mors- neEt9,

 E. KNEELAND.

A friend of mine was always con1- piainfng about his poor pasture land. but az he never seemed inclined to fernedy matters in the ordinary way l asked him one day why he did not put A flock of geese on it and make good 1aoney, not only by having fine birds ho sell for market but also to enrich his soil. as stocking land with geese Is an excellent way to enrich land quick u, He was a little doubtful at first, but ik turned out admirably, and now Ais fine Toulouse geese are sought for ky some of the fancy butchers in high priced markets and in three years from the time he bought his flock his pasture was as good as any on the farm.
 His growing pride and interest fin his flock well repaid him for extra. labor, and some of the facts he learned in regard to them were that geese are less liable to disease than any other domestic fowl and are longer lived. Some breeds lay forty eggs during the season, and one curious phase of this bird is that the ganders are as good. and sometimes better, mothers than the geese. being watchful and careful with the gosiings. Two days after matching the young ones should be given plenty of green and tender food, such as Sress or lettuce, and, although at first they eat little, especially in summer, BIaOUalS tncJ pSCoAnc ASouy for all you can give them. 1t Is about two months and a half before they are ready for market, and, besides [ he necessary grit and water which they should always have within easy reach. q good fattening food is cornmeal mix ed with water until it is crumbly and 1 per cent meat scraps added to it.

WHY HAWAIIS THANKFUL, rs THE
SUBJECTOF ADDRESS At SCHOFIELD

We in Hawaii are thankful that this
year has witnessed the opening OF the
magnificent Panama Canal-a world
dream ever since Balboa waded out in
to the Pacific and filing his open
palms with its beautiful water claimed
the whole ocean for CASTLE. The
world, when small, got along with a
small ocean, the Mediterranean. When
Il grew in numbers and in interests
then the larger Atlantic became the
avenue of commerce and the arena OF
struggle. Now fo- the greatest
problems Of the greatest nations the
world has ever known we are coming
into possession Of the greatest and
most majestic ocean. The Pacific is
to be the worlds center. The Mediter-
ranean came under Anglo-Saxon do
minion by the ownership OF Gibraltar
and Malta The Atlantic in this day
OF worldwide war IL so safely policed
by Anglo-SaxOn boats that commerce
between New York and Liverpool is
not all interrupted. viii the Anglo
Saxon control the Pacific? VIII the
United States and Great Britain joint
ly see to it that this vast expanse of
waters is safe and that Anglo-SaxOn
civilization become predominant? II
looks as though the opportunity and
responsibility belong to these two
great nations that have been at peace
with each other full century. For
the British Singapore, HGngkong,
Australia. New Zealand, the Eli ISL
ands' and British secure a wide infiu-
ence. For Americans, Hawaii. Guam
and the Philippines assure most stra.
tegic advantages. Japan has "a fertile
population with scribe soil," and Is
struggling against inherited power &C
centuated by two costly wars. She has
ambitions, but very limited resources,
She is friendly to America and Great
Britain and will forward their inter.
ests. Germany has been driven out
most recently. Russia was ship
wrecked on the Pacific in war with
Japan; France has a weak foothold.
Why then should Americans follow
vacillating policy on the Pacific? Fac
ing the Orient and holding many stra-
tegic points Ii is incumbent upon her
and especially since the canal is now
open, to exert an eyer-increasing infiu.
ence upon trade, commerce, culture
and civilization in the Pacific sphere
of influence" The great canal will
add to Hawaii's wealth and growth and
well.being; but 1t viii more than, ever
prove the importance to America of
these islands and the supreme need Of
good government along with the best
possible Navy and Army. This has
been q most eventful year for Hawaii
and all her citizens are full of enthu-I
siasm, courage and praise. 81.

feated but the captain of that COM
