IL you are going to begin Matching

grain and meat you are giving them.

OF green feed, you will have good
matches and strong chickens. You

clover chat. Very soon the rye or
wheat or vetch you seeded in your
runs last fall will be ready for them to
pick at on sunny days. If you have q
small hot bed, and wish TO take the
trouble, start sprouting oats In it. A
one-sash bed win keep a hundred hens
in green feed for some time, and is
much cheaper than any "sprouter" you
can buy.
Even IL you cannot get q good supply
OF green feed, you need not worry.
The Maryland Experiment StaGon has
found trat wheat bran will 60 a long
way tovard taking the place of green
iced. Hens fed on bran kept every
bit OF green stun In their runs eaten
~. but hens fed bran In a self-feeding
hopper ate only part of the greens
In their runs and let the Fest grow.
This shows that bran. TO a consider
able extent. can take the place OF
green feed or rather that bran-fed hens
may get but little green feed and yet
do well.

HANDLING POTATOES RIGHT
A PAYING PROPOSITION
Little Trouble Required To Make
Potatoes Which HAYS Become
Sweet Fit To Eat.

The Maryland Experiment Station In
its Bulletin No. 167 finds that potatoes
for eating purposes keep best at q tenn
perature Of from 3S' to Age. They
keep best In a well-yentilated cellar or
vault that is moderately dry. They
should not be kept in large heaps or
bins since this viii cause them to heat
and spoil. Heating Is due to poor ven
tilation and rapid respiration OF the
potatoes. Respiration Is the change
that is constantly going on In stored
potatoes. 1t changes the starch and
sugar In potatoes into carbon dioxide
gas and water. When the tempera-
ture falls below 3so In the storage
room. starch changes TO sugar very
rapidly, the change being the most
rapid at from 29s to 32o.
The changing of the starch in the
potato to sugar sweetens 1t SO that il
Is UNIT for cooking purposes. II
potatoes, which have become sweet
through long exposure to low tempera-
lures. are brought into q room of 70s
to T5' for a week, about four-fifths OF
the sugar will be changed back into
starch. the remaining fifth being lost
through respiration. A longer ex-
posture Of three to four weeks In the
cellar or vault after the temperature
has risen to AS or SO win remove
most OF the sugar and make the potato
fit for use.

our LOST TREASURE

o give US back the modest maid,
Who charmed In days departed:
In graceful lowing robes arrayed.
A vision, virgin hearted.
With natures blush upon her cheek.
And natures tresses wreathing,
Her guileless brow--'twas hers TO speak
Soft-vo'ced, like music breathing.
And when she walked her quiet pace,
Beseemed her maiden vesture:
And when she danced. a decent grace
Controlled each pose and gesture.
And all of chivalry's true knights
Who met her or addressed her.
Uplifted were TO purer heights,
Revering, while they blessed her.
Who is this stranger in her placer
This slave of vulgar fashion,
Who panders both in form and face
To ev'ry lothsome passion?
With painted cheek and shameless
dress,
All day abroad she prances,
And fills the night with hideousness
OF low, degrading dances.
Where is the worthy, honest man
Who for his wife would choose her
And shield her from his fellows ban
Nor aout her, nor abuse her?
What from her methods can arise
Save ruin and dishonor,
When Mother Mary wells her eyes
And dare not look upon her!
s
o lady of lilies gaze
With infinite compassion
Upon this lost one in the maze
OF folly's basest fashion.
Save her, great Mother! set her feet
In the pure path thou troddest,
And make her like the true and swee
In maiden beauty modest
