The Law of Advertisino.

James R. Garfield of Cleveland. son of the late President Garfield, told one of the editors of the American Maga- zine the following story about travel ing in 1878 as a boy with his father, who was campaigning One night, after a speech in Michigan, young Garfield said to his father: "Why do you repeat so much2 Do you know you said the same things several times tonight? Do you know that you said the same things tonight that you said this afternoon in Detroit ?" Gen. eral Garfield made this reply: You happen to be an especially interested party and notice these repetitions Others do not. 1 repeat the same statements deliberately in order that people may finally get them. Any thing that I want an audience to get and remember I repeat several times -in somewhat different form per haps This practice I developed out of my experience which has shown me that peoples attention is distract ed in various ways and that a, first or second statement may not really get to them. You must insist on an idea or fact if you want to get anywhere with it. American Magazine.

New Anthracite Field.

The discovery of twenty-foot vein of anthracite in Pennsylvania is good news for everybody. The Pennsyl- vania papers say that this is tile sec ond recent discovery in the Bear Ridge mountain region, and the third of importance in the anthracite terri tory within few years. If we do not know the resources of so familiar and thoroughly exploited territory as Pennsylvania, the inference is strong that the world at large still holds un- suspected riches, even at the time that the alarm of exhaustion is raised anew Forty years ago, when the an nual production of anthracite ran about 25,0OO,00O tons. alarmists thought there would soon be no more Now the output is about fourfold, and the discoveries continue=New York Times.

WHITE HOLLAND IS FAVORED
Breed of Turkeys That Do Not Wan. der Away From Home-Hens Nest
 in Any Convenient Place.

Until recently the Mammoth Bronze turkey was in a class by itself, and was known as the king of domestic birds, but by scientific breeding the White Holland variety has become a close rival of the old favorite and promises to gain in popularity over the Bronze within very few years, says an Illinois writer in Farmers Review.
 There was a time when I read ad- vertisements which described the White Holland turkey as the kind that stays at home" I could scarce ly believe that it was in accordance with turkeys nature, whatever breed they chanced to be, to ''stay at home. Personal experience has proved that the White Holland will not wander as do the Bronze and Bourbon Red, key family with which I am ac- quainted
 In the laying season White Holland hens are content to nest in any build ing about the place, in straw sheds or nearby shocks of corn and do not resent being disturbed.
 When the poults are very young it is not necessary to keep the turkey hen penned up more than a week, for she will go only few yards from the coop, as she seems to realize the help lessness of her flock. Later, as the turkeys grow larger and stronger, the mother hens pick their way slowly through an adjoining meadow or field for few hours each day, always com ing home early in the afternoon. At no time during the summer or fall do they go any distance from home,

PLANTS FOR SHADY WINDOWS
By BEEN RExEoRD.

It often happens that the woman who loves plants has no sunny win dows in which to grow them, and, un- der the impression that they cannot be successfully grown without sunshine, she does not attempt their cultivation, thus depriving herself of a great deal of pleasure, especially in the winter.
 There is no good reason why the lover of plants should be without their company in the winter, provided, of course, that the temperature of the rooms can be regulated to keep out the frost, and some of the plants that can be grown in the windows that are without sunshine are among our most desirable ones for house culture.
 First on the list 1 would place the Boston fern. Nearly everyone is fa- miliar with this plant. It requires only the ordinary attention.
 Give it soil of garden loam, with enough coarse. sharp sand worked into it to make it friable, a liberal, but not an excessive amount of water and a temperature varying several de- grees above the frost point, and any one may be reasonably sure of sue cess with it.
 It does not do very well, however, in steam-heated, gas-lighted rooms. No plants will flourish under such condi- tions, though many will live on indefi- nitely under them.
 The Aspidistra is about the only plant I would dare to recommend to those living in rooms heated and light ed as mentioned above.
 This plant has an almost iron con- stitution, which enables it to withstand influences that would soon kill most plants.
 It seems to care nothing for the sun shine, and therefore is excellently adapted to cultivation in sunless rooms
 If not subject to the facilitating eff most luxuriant growth, and it's rich, dark leaves will afford a vast amount of pleasure.
 While it is able to withstand un- favorable conditions better than other plants, it is always grateful for good care, and the plants that are cared for we'll are always the ones that give the best satisfaction, keep in mind.
 English ivy is an old favorite. Twined up about window, it is a beautiful sight to see. l know of no vine having more attractive foliage.
 Its dark, rich leaves have just the thick, leathery texture a plant should have to resist the effect of dry air and dust. Dust need never be allowed to accumulate on it, however.
 Dust the vine every day. You need not be afraid of injuring the foliage. Some of the finest specimens of it 1 have ever seen have never had a glimpse of sunshine. Give it soil of garden loam.
 Have it's pot we'll drained; water moderately. Be on the lookout for
The Pulaskian., 1915-05-28

scale. If any are found-generally along the stalks, but sometimes on the leaves-wash the entire plant with soapy water, taking care to rub the infested stalks well.
 In order to make it easy to take the plant down for cleaning, I would ad- wise putting small screw-hooks in the window frame to furnish support for it, rather than fastening them secure ly to the woodwork Simply slip the vine over the hook and it will need no other support. When it is necessary to take the plant down for any pur- pose, all one has to do is lift it out of the hooks that hold it-and there you are.
 The Whitman fern is fitting com panion for the Boston fern, of which 1t is a sport This variety has much shorter fronds than the Boston fern. They are much wider, however, and their leaflets are subdivided in such a manner that each becomes a minia- ture frond The effect is light and feathery and exceedingly graceful.
 This is most excellent plant for a place at the sill, while the Boston vari- ety is more effective if given bracket half way up the window, from which point of vantage it's long fronds can droop in such manner as to display their charms most effectually.
 All plant lovers have a desire to grow some member of the Adiantum branch of the fern family in the living room. Few have succeeded in doing this, however, because Of the delicacy of the ordinary varieties. But we have one now that will adapt itself ordinar fly to the cultivation which prevails in the usual home.
 This is Crowcanum. have given it years trial and it has proved satis- factory-as satisfactory as the old Boston fern. It is stronger, sturdier in habit than any other Adiantum 1 have ever seen and its foliage is thicker and firmer
 It grows to a height of about eight cen inches and has corresponding spread of branches It's foliage has all the grace that characterizes this di- vision of the great fern family, and well-grown specimen is a thing to be proud of.
 Give it a soil of loam, turfy matter or leaf mold and sand, equal parts. Let it's drainage be good; water we'll and cover with something when you dust the room.
 All the plants mentioned above are non-fowering. Or, more strictly speak ing, they are grown for their foliage only. Whatever flowers they have are so insignificant as to be unnoticeable
 But there are towering plants quite we'll adapted to culture in sunless windows.
 One of these is Primula obconica Another is Primula Forbesii. Primula obconica has much longer flowers than the other variety and is therefore more showy, but Primula Forbesii is a most charming little thing that will win it's way to the heart of every person who loves flowers.

RHODE ISLAND WHITE BREED
They Are Equal of Any as Table Fowl, Being of Size Which Suits the
 Average Housewife.
(By M. E. BEMIs, Phoenix, Ariz.)

(By M. E. BEMIS, Phoenix, Ariz.)
 The advice to go slow on new breeds is unquestionably good. To try each new breed that is heralded is to invite disaster. There is an old adage which applies as well to poultry as to styles in hats, Be not the first to try the new nor yet the last to lay the old aside" In the matter of choosing new breed of poultry, one perchance your inclination causes you to fancy one of the new or sawer breeds, there should be no reason for discarding this variety just because it is new. All varieties were new once.
 Of the new breeds which are likely to make good, the Rhode Island White has many qualities which should at- tract the breeder who is looking for a fowl which will lay and pay The Rhode Island White has been bred now for more than ten years. The bird is the same size and type as the Rhode Island Red, the only difference being the color, which is, of course, of pure white. The breed originated from cross of the Cochin with Wy andotte, this cross mated to a Cochin and the resulting birds mated with a Rose Comb White Leghorn. It seems that pretty nearly all the good quail ties of each have been combined in this breed. As table fowl they are the equal of any and, being of size which seems to suit the average housewife, they fill the bill better than larger or a smaller bird would

Ration for Sittino Hens.

Whole corn is the best ration for sitting hens. Give them all they will eat of it once day. Don't feed the s1tters with the rest of the flock. They should have some grass, also clean, fresh water to drink. some grit and charcoal.
