The Playful Kangaroo

Once upon a time a Kangaroo
lived with a great many other
animals IN a place that was called
a Zoo. He had plenty to cat and
was well taken care OF, but he was
not happy and looked each day
for a chance 10 run away.
One day his keeper forgot to
close the door Of the cage and
out he ran as fast as he could.
Down the street he jumped until
he reached the door OF farm

with his front paws on the door

making himself a target for the
Belgian marksmen, he suspended
from his aeroplane at the end of
a rope 200 feet long, a red Ian,

lantern for the aeroplane, fired
and shattered it. The machine
and the airman escaped unhurt
and the bombs so damaged the
fort that the guns of the BeIgians
were put out of action.

Treat the COWS gently.

~~N~~~o-oN~~~~~o
Treat the cows gently.
We must have good roads.
Horses should not stand idle.
Provide the hens with nests
The hog-tight fence helps keep the
mortgage OF.
1t doesn't pay to feed duck after
It Is 10 weeks old.
Be sure that the male at the head
OF the poultry flock is pure bred.
Eggs for Matching must be from
strong, healthy, well-fed chickens.
Land that dries quickly after a rain
is well adapted for raising poultry.
Good judgment is worth more to the
dairyman than his highest priced COW.
Keep salt and wood ashes before
the hogs all the time-but in separate
boxes.
A heavy crop of clover plowed un-
der, Is one Of the best restoratives Of
the soil.
Have the main part Of your gar
den so arranged that It can be culti-
waited with a horse.
Watch the newly-broken colt. II his
head begins to droop it's sure sign
you are overworking him.
More feed can be stored in a given
space in the form of silage than in
the form of fodder or hay.
In its first few weeks of life the
calf takes on weight very fast, and
will have great appetite.
Nest boxes free from cracks and
crevices are best because such places
are hiding places for vermin.
When spraying do not work with
bare hands. They'll be sore If you do
Put on a pair Of rubber gloves.
Corn, wheat and oats are the best
feeds for growing turkeys and dry
grain chick feeds for the little tur-
keys.
Dairying is rapidly becoming a
science. 1t is being studied more ex-
tensively than almost any other line
Of farming.
Grass is of little value as a feed
until month after 1t starts In the
spring. 1t must be supplemented with
grain or hay.
Chemical plant foods should be
used chiefly to establish grasses and
clovers that shall form the basis Of
future operations.
Provide the herd with comfortable
quarters at all times. Failure in this
will impair the usefulness Of the ami
NAL and waste the feed.
The raising OF poor horses Is one
Of the most Improbable Of farm oper.
ations as the raising Of good ones is
one Of the most profitable.
One Of the chief objects Of a cover
crop In an orchard is to assist in
controlling the moisture content Of the
soil during late summer and early
fall.
The hens that are running around
the barn are living under conditions
that are more natural, and when az
we'll fed as the others they will pro
duce more eggs.
Good garden work cannot be easily
done unless good tools are available
See that all tools are In good condi
ton and that you have those best
adapted for your work.
An orchard with the trees plantet
40 by 20 feet, and q few rows Of con
planted between the rows Of trees
provides the most ideal place for thI
rearing Of small chicks.

POPE Plus K DIES.
(Continued from Page One)

(Continued from Page One)
Sition Sarto attracted to himself
the attention of Italians in all
parts of the kingdom, and brought
TO himself the commendation OF
his parish, and devotion to the
poor brought him the deepest re-
yerence from his Pensioners
and it was with great regret. min
gled with pleasure at his success,
that his followers eight years
later saw him made Chancellor
of. the Diocese of TreviSO. and
shortly thereafter, Director OF the
Seminary; followed also in quick
succession by promotion to the
Clergy.
Not of Rubust Health.
Pope Plus was not a man OF ro-
bust health. When he took the
office, he was physically in poor
condition, and it was believetat
that time that he would not live
long. He had led too much the
life of a student. One of his fa-
vorite exercises was walking. and
in the glow of the evening he was
frequently to be seen in the beau
tiful gardens of the Vatican Pal
ace. In 1911 he was taken ill.
During his cOnvaleScence his ply
Sician directed that the Pope's
room be changed, as it was feared
he did not get sufficient air and
ventilation. He recovered rapid
ly from this illness, but was again
stricken in 1912, at which time it
was reported that he was dying.
A denial of this was made at the
Vatican shortly thereafter, and
the Pope, in order to put an end
to the rumorS, exhibited himself
in public. In 1918 he was again
taken ill, and it was practically
conceded by his physicians that he
had but a short time to live.
A Friend of America.
Pope Plus X was a warm friend
of America, and showed his feel
ingS toward the nation and to-
ward American Catholics repeat
edly by word and deed. Frequent
ly he sent special messages to
American parishes or prelateS,
outside the usual churchly rOu-
tine, each showing admiration
and love for the branch of the
church across the water.
. He was firmly opposed to mo-
derniSm in America. Late in 1908
he issued an encyclical removing
America from the list of nations
to be regarded as missionary ter
ritOry and gave it full equality
with the Catholic countries of Eu-
rope.
Many instances of the Pope'S
kindly feeling for the United
States have been told of by return
ing pilgrims.
A message to America was car
ried by Cardinal Farley on his re-
turn from Europe. The follow
ing was the message brought by
Farley:
His Holiness, Pope Plus X,
sends his best wishes to the
American people. Whenever he
speaks of America or the Ameri-
cans, his face lights up. He says
that he considers the American
people most wonderful and has
the greatest admiration for them
and for American institutions"
Addressing Archbishop Farley
on the occasion of the visit to the
Vatican by the latter, the Pope
said:
what a great country is yours.
Everything is done there OIL a
grand scale. have come to know
and to love America. | admire
the magnificent independence Of
your people"

French Assuming The Aggressive.
Against the peSSimiStic outlook
news reaches me from eye wit
neSSeS from the front at Jemappe,
Wavre and Gembloux, which for
the present is forbidden journal
lists that the French are assuming
the aggressive and hunting lie
UhlanS out of the woods and back
crossroads between Namur and
Brussels.
Further, from a good source,
comes the news that the French
! generals have chosen their battle
ground and have the Germans new
in such a position that they cam
not avoid fighting a bate in which
two thirds of their northern force
must be engaged, if it is to face
the body of the French, which
has been rolled up into Belgium.
Will Decide Fate of Brussels.
The battle will decide the fate
of Brussels, if that is not already
decided by giving it as a bait to
Germany. II will also in a large
measure decide the fate of the
war in this northern part and
perhaps on the whole.
The carnage will be awful. Al
Dinant and Namur the battle is
likely to be the worst, in the sense
that it will be the rushing of
lance to lance and bayOnet to bay
onet down the steep hills by the
MeuSe.i The French artillery will
get full play, unless the Germans
abandon their usual massed for
nation.
Further efforts have been made
by a great power to induce Bull
garia to depart from her policy of
neutrality, but without success.
The government is resolved to
maintain a neutral attitude, but il
will defend Bulgarian territory il
need be.

ease.

In view of the fact that reports
nave been circulated in town that
there is an epidemic Of diphtheria
in the city it will be heard with re-
lief by many parents that there Is
no danger from this disease, so far
as the health officer knows. EIe stat
ed Thursday that he had heard from
several sources of the reports, but
mat no cases had been reported to
him and so far as he knew there was
no diphtheria in town. The only
known contagious disease was one
case, supposed to be scarlet fever, on
the outskirts OF the city on Purdy
Street.
Otherwise than this there were no
contagious diseases in town and the
health Of the community was excel.
lent, being, in fact, much better than
for number Of years, there being no
typhoid and less malaria.
