WANTED A PERMANENT BOND
Mite of Seven Year Had Worked Out
Solution of Problem to Hta
Satisfaction.

He Is the merest mite, only seven,
and his widowed mother was married
the other day for the second time to
"daddy"-a really very nice person
who had long been fast friends with
the stepson-elect and had no idea OF
being an interloper.
There are problems to be figured
out--even when you are only seven.
Mother" asked the mite, who are
you going to marry when daddy dies%
why, my dear" she replied, what
curious question"
We'll" responded the mite, when
father died you married daddy-and
now, when daddy dies, know just
who I want you to marry"
why, my little son!" exclaimed the
perplexed mother. You shouldn't
sneak like that Daddy isn't going to
die"
Yes mother, know, but he might
die. Then, If he ever does, mother, l
want you to promise me that you'll
marry me~-'cause then--then, you see
we would never have to be sepa-
rated"
Thus, even at seven, does heart
know it's own sorrow.

A New Cure,

A bedpost has not generally been
regarded so much as an eye-opener as
an eye-shutter, but II a story that
comes from Boston is true-and what
story from Boston was ever untrue
on oculists should go to school to the
landmarks of Morpheus. Mr.. Frank
H. Hayes, who has been stone blind
for nine years, so the tale runs, struck
his head violently against the bedpost
on arising, and was astonished few
minutes afterward to find that his
sight had been entirely restored. We
do not know whether the virtue of this
cure lay In the bedpost or in the fact
that 1t was Boston bedpost, but II it
was really effected in this way there
would seem to be a good deal In such
inanimate objects not heretofore
dreamed OF in the philosophy Of optics.
One Of the morals Of this modern mir
acie would seem to be that knocking
is sometimes a very eficacious proc
ess, and that the only way to make
some folks see things is by knocking
them into their heads.-Baltimore Sun.

TURKEY RAISING PAYS
Fowls Have Proved of Benefit to
Growing Crops.
City Buyers Are Willing to Pay Fancy
Prices for Birds Provided They
Come Direct From Farm, Free
From Disease.
fgv M. r.. Wf4ITIOCK.>


It has been said against turkeys
that they are destructive to crops, but
IN the writer's experience, they have
instead, proved a benefit to growing
crops of hay or grain; they are in
search of insects, not green food
AS soon rs, or before, the hens show
In inclination to seek for nests in the
spring sufficient number of barrels
,r large boxes should be placed where
they can find them, preferably On the
ground so that the hen may walk into
The nest; if she has to jump down
INTO the barrel or box the chances are
some eggs will be broken. Seclude
these boxes or barrels by partly COW
The hen begins to lay, remove the eggs
each day, placing one or two hens
eggs in their place.
If the hen lays more than fifteen
chicken hen, but when the eggs are
hatched, give all to the turkey hen.
After the hen has been set shut her
in safely from anything that might
harm her, but let her off the nest each
morning very early, shutting her in
again when she returns.
Some claim that the chicken hen
makes the best mother, but If those
who claim this will notice when feed
ing young turkeys with chicken hen,
they will see that often the turkeys
will, after eating q few mOuthfuls, go
off in search OF an insect until called
back by their unnatural mother and
encouraged to stuff themselves with
unnatural food
They do not wish to eat much at one
time and when being fed, should, at
the same time, be supplied with wa
ter; but when allowed to roam they
do very well if watered night and
morning, but, if they come in from
the field during the day it is because
they want water
Nature has taught them to eat in
while the same teacher instructs the
turkey hen to take her brood where
such food is abundant, allowing them
to secure it for themselves.
The hen scarcely ceases her watch
long enough to secure the necessary
food to sustain herself, for she seems
always to nave her head in the air &c

GRANDMA USED SAGE TEA

Almost everyone knows that Sage

average him $4,000 a year.
All this talk about the exploitation
OF labor by capital, class distinction,
living wage. high cost Of living, and
so forth, doesn't hold the slightest
interest for the Canadian farmer.
Why? Because he has proved that
you can't begin too poor to become
rich in Canada; that free homesteads
preclude the possibility Of being
robbed of freedom and independence;
that the high cost of living can't hurt
the man who grows most Of his own
necessities; that his labor brings re-

time and intelligence invested.

until two years Of age, and in his
prime at three years, and nearly as
good at four years old. 1t is, there
fore, mistake to sell off all the older
birds and retain the young ones for
breeding purposes.
Young turkeys are of delicate
nature until they are fully feathered
and have thrown out a red on their
heads, which usually occurs at about
three months of age, After that they
are hardy, and may be allowed un-
limited range at all times.
To fatten turkeys for market they
should be confined in pens of about
ten feet square and from six to eight
birds to the pen. The quarters must
be warm and dry, and the birds must
be protected from the rains and storm.
A good fattening food is mash Of
two parts bran and shorts, one-fOurth
ground wheat, mixed with little
water. Whole corn and wheat is also
an excellent fattener, and they may be
given as much of this as they will eat.
A little beef fat, finely chopped, given
once or twice week, is relished and
has a good effect. Skim milk should
be kept before the birds always.
Turkey raising can be made very
profitable business, particularly in the
West, where all kinds Of grain grow at
small cost.
1t will pay well if only the regular
markets are used, but if a private
trade is worked up, which is easily
done in any part of the country to-
day, the profits can easily be increased
from rs to so per cent.

day officially accepted Americas
terms.
Ambassador Bernstorff, speaking
for the German foreign office, in
formed the state department that
henceforward the kaiser's submarine
methods will conform to Americas
Interpretation of international law.
There will be no more unwarned
attacks on merchant ships. Ger
many stated. Vessels suspected of
carrying contraband will be visited
and searched before being destroyed.
Their crews and passengers will be
given every opportunity to escape.
Liners will not be sunk by our
submarines without warning and
without safety of the lives of non
complaints, provided that the liners
do not try to escape or offer resis-
tance," was the written statement of
Ambassador Bernstorff, conveying his
instructions to the secretary of state
today on the German answer to the
latest Lusitania note.
In substance, the same assurances
had been made to the state depart
ment informally several days ago.
This relieves the tension but there
was still much anxiety concerning
the nature and conditions of the Ger
man concessions. 1t was feared they
might be so qualified as to be unac-
ceptable.
ALI such doubts were removed to-
day. The full text of the ambassa-
doris note to the secretary of state
was as follows:
q ''My Dear Secretary-With refer
eDce to our conversation of this
1lorning, beg to inform you that my
fstructions concerning our answer
] 70 your last Lusitania note contains
the following passage: Liners will not

the Arabic incident has been definite
ly and satisfactorily settled, desire
to inform you of the above because
this policy of my government was de-
cided on before the Arabic incident
occurred.
81 have no objections to your max
ing any use you may please of the
above information.
81 remain, my dear MIR. Lansing,
very sincerely yours. Bernstorff."
Commenting on the foregoing
statement, Secretary of State Lam
sing would only say that in view of
it's clearness it seems needless to
make any comment in regard to it,
other than to say that it appeared to
be recognition of the fundamental
principles for which we have con-
tended.
Everything the United States asked,
so far as the future was concerned,
Germany has now granted.
The past was touched on only by
inference.
The Lusitania and Arabic cases
were not specifically mentioned. The
only conclusion it was possible to
draw from today's communication,
however, was that German accepted
responsibility-as, indeed, it has al
ready done-for the Lusitania-s de-
struction, that she would disavow
the sinking of the Arabic, that the il
legality of both attacks was admitted
and that the fullest possible repara-
ton would be made for the loss of
American lives when the two vessels
went down
Past incidents were left for diplo-
matte settlement, but the tone of to-
days note, together with intimations
previously received from Berlin, left
no doubt that Germany would meet
the United States more than half way
concerning these matters and that a
speedy and satisfactory adjustment
