Within two and a half days the bic

Within two and half days the big
| pine structure stood complete.
Jackson is a very conservative old
town and rather opposed to the evan
gelistic idea, but the sight of that huge
pine house put everybody on his tip
toe. In spite of the bad weather the
people came from everywhere. The
first mems meeting on Sunday after
noon was the biggest thing that old
Cape county ever saw.
Mr.. Tovey, who by the way is a
/ wonder, organized a choir of two
hundred voices. (Dr. Torrey, think,
discovered Tovey in Australia. J
Anyway, Tovey is a choir leader for
Burk and Hobbs and he brings things
to pass. People in this county will
talk of the Tovey choir as long as they
live. Southeast Missouri never saw
anything like it!
And Steve Burk held the great
crowds To my. mind it is wonderful
how he adapted himself to a most diff
cult situation. In other words, he is a
man who can look town in the face
and know what kind ofEaaaehing will
! win and bring men to Christ. Burk
knows men and he knows the power
of Christ to save man. No preacher
ever had the good people of jackson
with him more completely than Evan
gelist steve Burk had them. The only
people who do not believe in him are
the folks who will not go to hear him
preach only handful of them.
This campaign Is a knockout blow
to the saloons of Jackson; they will
never get on their feet again. And
the nice, "wet" politicians arc going
to be forced into class where they
really belong. Hundreds of the voters
of this county will entertain chang
ed view of the liquor traffic at the
close of this great meeting.
An interesting by product of this
meeting has been the growth of the
NV. Q. T. U, I think they have gained
some sixty new members since the
opening of the meeting, making the
Union number 100 strong up to date.
More than five hundred people will
be added to the churches as a direct
result of the great revival. Many of
the strong men of the county are
among these converts. About two
hundred members will be added to the
Methodist church. The meeting
closed Sunday night. The Burk-
Robbs-Tovey force leave thousands
of warm.friends in Jackson and Cape
county.
Yours sincerely,

Personal Liberty out of Date?
tFrom the st. Louis Post-Dispatch.l

from the st. Louis st-Dispatchl
One who describes herself as be-
longing to the illogical sex, notwith-
standing she has "studied Thomas
Jefferson," takes issue with us on the
matter of personal liberty; declaring
that personal liberty is out of date.
She believe that it is "hardly suited
to the complex civilization and con-
gested city lives of the twentieth
century Lives of which Thomas JEFF
ferson had no conception"
In point of fact Jefferson looked
forward to our congested population
at the time when this country should
have a hundred millions, and he
wrote of "the multiplications of men
susceptible of happiness, educated
in the love of order, habituated to
self-goyernnent, and valuing its
blessings above all price" But that
is beside the point we would make
Personal liberty is not merely "Jef-
fersonian proposition, but prin-
ciple expressly adopted in the found
ing of this Government. Jefferson's
propositions concerning personal
liberty are as applicable to-day as
they were in the beginning, if the
Declaration of Independence still
holds meaning for American citi-
zens.
The point we would make, answer
T. ing our critic, is that personal liberty
appears just now especially vital to
women, and in the struggle of their
sex for civic emancipation they should
be the last to decry broad principle
of freedom.
Women, evidently many of them,
who are beginning to take an active
interest in public affairs or political
life, need to be reminded that an
abridgement of personal liberty af-
fects them as we'll as men. If women
would undertake politically to regu-
late mems personal habits, men may
logically and with equal impropriety
retaliate. What if men undertook to
prescribe by legislation what skirts
women should wear or to interdict
certain conventional costumes as Sim
moral?" Suppose the ban were laid
on corsets and coffee as detrimental
to health and consequently "moralsP"
Suppose that long hair were decreed
q germ bearing menace to public
health, and hat pins opposed TO gener-
al welfare7. Suppose red were pro-
hibited as an immoral color? Suppose
a majority OF US put the lid on pink
teas, voted cards vice, novel read
ing a misdemeanor, crocheting a form
of vagrancy, and bargain sales an in
fraction of peace and public orderl
II the ladies think these possibilities
absurd, let them read the blue laws
and see what Puritans did in this land
Of the free before personal liberty re-
acted. We trust that none Of these
cruel reprisaIs will ever be perpetrat-
ed on the gentle busybodies with all
due respect) who are tampering with
our fundamental privileges and natur-
al rights. But the worst will surely
happen to everybody il personal lib
erty ever really becomes out Of date.

Burk and Hobbs in Jackson.
IRON the Pennington News.l

from the Pennington News.l
It occurs to me that some Of the re,
suits Of the Burk- Hobbs meeting in
Jackson may be of interest to your
readers, since these men are so well
known In your vicinity.
On the 14th OF February we began
our Union Campaign; holding the
meetings in the Methodist church.
Old citizens told Us that we would
never fill the building, which seats
about 1900 people. But at the end oI
the first week the church was too full
for comfort.
Then Mr.. Hobbs began to talk taber-
nacle. The folks eaid, "money IL
scarce, we can't afford the. expense \
But the tabernacle came, and id thif
way: A contractor agreed TO rent us
the lumber for $3.50 90 II we would gel

summer, because the same construc- tion that keeps out the cold will keep out the heat
 This accompaniment poultry house is 16 by 32 feet in size, with a parti- tion across the middle
 A building put up in this manner. with the roof pitched in two direc- tions, costs a little more than a good shed roof house the same size on the ground, but it has a better appear ance.
 The reason for dividing the house into two compartments is that poultry do better when kept in smaller num- bers. Successful poultry raising sems to depend to a certain extent upon limiting the number of fowls to 30 or 40 together in one compart- ment.
 Poultrymen differ in regard to the number that may be kept together. Some draw the line at 25. It is diff cult to furnish dust baths and clean water with sufficient scratching sur face, for flock of more than 35 or 40 without getting the buildings too large. Large poultry houses are ex- pensive. Like all other lines of busi- ness, there are limitations that should be recognized in order to come out right on the profit side.
 Poultry houses built in this style usually have a wider slope of roof at the back, so that the back of the building is made lower than the front Poultry houses usually are faced to- ward the south, so that the roof is made

about two feet above the concrete

about two feet above the concrete floor.
 There is a door in the west end ana another one in the east end or the house. Also there is doorway through the center partition It Will depend mon the climate whether the west door shall be boarded up tight in the winter or left open for use. In sum- mer the doors may all be left open
 This poultry house may be built higher or lower, according to the eli mate; also the upper part of the house is finished differently where the cold is extreme.
 Sometimes Iouver openings are put in the ends of the gables and loose floor of narrow strips placed overhead for a ceiling. Over these strips the little loft is filled with clean straw. Air finds it's way slowly through the filling of straw, without causing draft.
 Sometimes the straw is supported by stretching woven wire fencing at the proper height. It IS a goou way to ventilate a poultry house if the straw is always kept clean. A perma- nent filling of straw makes harbor to shelter lice, mites and fieas, the three most persistent insect enemies that poster poultry.
 Poultry houses built on this plan in the more northern sections of the country, where a great deal of zero weather is expected in the winter time, are ceiled overhead at height not exceeding six feet from the floor. The ceiling may be level in the front part of the house until where it joins the rafters. The ceiling boards are then nailed to the rafters.
 A ceiling usually is made by tack ing building paper on the lower edges of the ceiling joists. This paper is

higher in front to get the warmth and light from the sun. The way the win dows are made in this poultry house admits both light and ventilation The window frames are made in the usual way and are fitted with single sash. Ventilation is provided by one extra wide window for each compartment, which is covered with very thin cotton cheese cloth The cotton is so thin that 1t admits air as well as light. As the days become longer and warmer towards spring both window openings may be covered with cheesecloth

then covered with narrow matched ceiling that is made plain. Beading is objectionable, because it furnishes a harbor for small vermin For the same reason the joints between the ceiling boards should be carefully filled with putty and paint. It is inn possible to keep a poultry house clean and free from lice and mites unless it is especially built for the purpose.
 The building of poultry houses re- quires considerable study to meet the requirements. It is quite possible to have fresh eggs all winter in the cold est farming sections, but all the requi- sites necessary to keep the poultry comfortable and to furnish all the diff ferent kinds of feeds must be care fully worked cut to fit the climate and other local conditions.
