HIGH SCHOOL NOTES

Much composition work is being done
this year in the English GLASSES. Each
pupil IS required to write one compost
ton a week. One book review a month
IS also written. These books are gener-
ally chosen from the library which was
given the school by the town, or from
Mrs. Browns library, so that the pupils
have only good books from which to
choose. Book reviews are beneficial, for
if one who does not like to read, has good
books put into his hands, he soon learns
to like them.
Pupils who have been reading books,
but not the best, are cultivating the taste
for good books. Then, too, the books
are remembered better when one has to
write reviews of them.

In the early days OF fancy poultry
breeding in America large sums OF
money were annually sent to England
for the best it produced in Cochin
Brahmas, Dorkings and Indian Games
which were then the popular fowls.
These fowls were gradually removed
from their great popularity by the
American breeds of poultry which were
in popular favor because of their Qua
purpose qualities of being good layers
and good table fowls at the same time
The golden stream was diverted and
almost stopped and English breeders

had lean years until the late William
Cook originated his now famous Orp-
ingtons.
OF these the single-comb white Or
pingtons attained the greatest popu-
larity. and, indeed, for a time they
were bred on broader scale than any
of our American varieties. They are
heavy producers of large tinted eggs
The chicks make excellent table fowls
from broiler size teight weeks ODD to
maturity.
These fowls are excellent general pur-
pose fowls. The chicks are rapid grow
ers and of fine flesh. making delicious
table fowls and, when full grown,
weigh from five and one-half to eight
and one-half pounds for females and
seven and one-half to eight and one
half pounds for males. and often more
Tests have shown that white Orping-
tons are profitable either as a farm
flock with unlimited range or for the
small backyard flock. where the ground
space is necessarily small.

between an old gardener and begin

Benefits of The beginner, who
an Early Start. mad nso e. gaf fhrne s, for
mers. remarked that he had not started
any gardening operations as yet. as he
did not believe anything was gained
by beginning work before actual spring
weather had arrived. The old hand at
the business listened to the words of
wisdom from his amateur friend with
a smile. and when the latter had fin
ished his remarks the old-tImer said:
Maybe you're right: lots of things
we old-timers do seem to he wrong
according to the experts NOWADAYS.
But I have noticed that you folks have
had to buy most of your vegetables the
last few summers, and you always
come to us for them, because we have
them and you don't. How do you ac-
count for that?"
The amateur launched into explana-
tons which had to do with luck
drought hot weather. etc, etc. where
upon the older man replied:
THE luck you speak of is all in get
ting things into the ground early
enough that the drought cannot burn
them up. Plant as early as you can.
which means as soon as the ground can
be plowed and put into proper seeding
condition. Then the crops will get the
benefit of the spring rains and will
get start before the hot weather and
drought come along. They can make
the root growth that keeps them living
and producing: they can make the
plant growth they must have if they
amount to anything, and the sun can
not burn up crops that have had a
chance to make these growths by rea-
son of early planting"

were busy at work blowing and har-
rowing the amateurs garden.

There is no zone best way to raise
poultry; on the contrary. there are
many good methods which. If followed
in busnesslike way. will bring sue
cess. There are just as many quacks
in the poultry business as ever lnfest-
ed the medical profession. and the man
who writes a book designed to prove
that his own personal method is the
only proper one is rather an egotistlcal
sort of chunp. Common sense, which,
after all. is about the most uncommon
commodity in the world, is the great
requirement. The application of COM
mon sense to poultry raising-the "sys-
tenn, if you will. Of knowing the right

easy or that there is nothing to be

! The idea is simply to impress the be-
| ginner with the hard and fast fact that
| it does not pay to give all his time and

and unhealthful to yourself. Poultry

Poultry Yard Notes.

Several correspondents recently have
asked the poultry editor of The Star as
to the proper season of the year in which
to start the poultry business, and have
expressed doubt as to whether it is better
to begin in the spring or the fall. As
matter of fact, there is no such time; or,
rather the best time of year to make a
start in the poultry business is when you
are ready If that is in the spring. all
right; the spring is the proper time for
YOU to start into the business. If you
do not make ready until fall, then fall
is your proper time to begin. mere is
just one hard and fast rule winch the
beginner must obey if he expects TO make
q success of the poultry business, and
that is to be ready before operations are
to be started. That is u rule that has
to be followed if success is to be attained
i'll any line of work.
However, the spring is the natural sea
son for beginning poultry operations. as
at that season the beginner, whether he
be an amateur or person with previous
experience, has the whole summer IN
which to get ready for winter. When
operations are begun in the fall little
for winter. aside from house building and
buying stock. Poultry raising, under
modern conditions, is almost wholly an
artificial business. in which the natural
instincts and inclnations of the fowls
are diverted so to bring the season
of reproduction-the egg-laying season
i'll the fall and winter instead OF in the
spring, as is the case when Nature has
her way. Hens do not lay naturally in
the fail and winter: winter laying is
created tendency, brought about by eco
homie conditions and requirements.

the spring, either by Matching his own
chicks. by buying day-old chicks or

Large Colony Houses.

The smaller brooder stoves will fit
nicely in the eight -tenfoot colony
house with d seven-f foot high front and
tive-foot high rear: ten-foot by ten
foot and twelve-foot by twelve-foot
colony houses are also used with good
results The cost of these colony
houses is not great. The popular six
foot by eiGht-foot is manufactured by
several firms who make Il specially in
poultry houses, and they can be pur-
chased from SIS to $50 fully equipped.
The larger eight-foot by ten-foot and
twelve-b twelve-f foot can be purchased
from $25 to $50.
The broodinH question can be solved
by knowing the number of chicks to be
reared and the systems depend largely
upon the number of chicks to be
hatched and reared. The outdoor
brooder has it's use. especially during
late spring, when weather conditions
are apt to be fine, but when the fact
is taken into consideration that when
the artificial heat is no longer required
the growing chicks must be auartered
in the colony house. the economic prop
osition is in favor of the indoor brood
err. placed in the colony house in which
the chicks can grow to maturity with
out change and In which the operator
can more easily attend to the chicks
in bad weather. With the colony house
system they have more room and bet
ter ventilation.

day gained at this time. therefore. is
day to the good. and the gardener
who hopes to make a first-class show
ing this summer should not delay the
spring work a single day.
Many gardeners already have peas up
two or three inches, early beets, car
rots and the like up or. at least, in the
ground, and the first paintings of sweet
corn made. The spring is far enough
advanced to make danger of severe
frosts remote. and crops such as those
mentioned are practically safe, as far
as regards danger from this source.
The principal advantage to be gained
from extensive gardening work right
now is the conservation in the soil of
the supply of moisture that is not near
ly so plentiful as usual. In ordinary
seasons the ground at this time of year
is wet. cold and heavy. This spring.

country, the soil is dry enough for any
