 The immigratioh hiH-kas Mssed 5thei hpuse by a majority big enough to' raake it seem assured that ever if Rresident Wilson, shall int erpose a ybto it will be passed despite his ac- tion by the members of the lower house. In the, senate, however, there IS some doubt, about this immigration matter and the fact that thefe=is a dpubt shows how sentiment suddenly may change. The immigration bill con- tAins a literacy clause. which if en- acted into law, would prevent the ad- mission into this country of immi- grants unable to read.
 For many years the senate has 4een strong for this literacy test, while the house has not been 50 eager flor it. When President Taft vetoed an immigration bill because of theSip, illusion of a literacy test, the serfate Ioted to pass the bill over the presi- snss so snS sss' # 5 sd gi5f 1Jt ss35s !ss Jaw.

RAISING FEED FOR THE FLOCK
Farm That Produces Its Own Grain Is
Always Most SuccessfuI-Oper
ating Expense Reduced.

1.-THE poultry farm that produces its
own feed or a goodly part Of it is al
ways the most successful" according
to William H. Pfeifer of Attention, Mo-,
because the feed Ia always right at
hand when needed, no drayage, no
waste, the range birds seeing to the
latter.
"The shattered grain does not go to
feed sparrows, crows, ETC., but pro-
duces chicken-meat and eggs. The
%droppings go back to the fields as
fertilizer and the operating expense or
upkeep is greatly reduced.
Such a farm has a great advantage
over the n that has to buy all its
feed, hauling it over miles of rough
country roads, paying dearly for the
time wasted in drayage and extra han
ding. This in itself is important evil
dence Of why the farmer can produce
cheaper poultry and eggs than the
poultryman. Those who after serious
consideration decide to go into the
business should bear this advice In
mind"

STORY.

One of our pr0-liquor friends told
the writer that women ought to stay
at home and bring up their families.
They ought to train their boys to let
liquor alone. Then he told a pathetic
story that he personally knew to be
true CD of a certain Mrs. Pingley out
In Kansas (always Kansas,), who
went out lecturing for the W. c. 7. l..
and left her three little children for
their father to lock after. He could
not be with them every moment, and
the three boys played on the railroad
track and were all killed by the cars
running over them. AS dryly COM
mented. all that spoiled the story was
that the W. c. T. [. never sends out
woman lecturers with small children
at home, and there never was any
Mrs. Pingley employed as a w. c. 7.
L. speaker in Kansas. He was not
certain then whether that was her
name or not, and thought perhaps she
was speaking for some other cause.

RAILROAD WATERMELON CLUB.

Every Bessemer man on the water
wagon" This is the aim of the en-
ployees of the Bessemer & Lake Erie
railroad. While membership is not
compulsory. the movement is so pop
ular that those who do not Join feel
that they are somewhat under con
domination. Many men who are not
members have quit drinking. In AL
bion, Pa, the division terminal of the
road, the Water-Wagon club has prac-
tically put the saloon out of business.
Instead of pay day being a day Of
wild c~arousing it is now quiet and

LATEST WORD OF SCIENCE.


The liquorites in their publicity arti-
cles often quote what they call a re
cent" statement in the Lancet Lion
don, England) concerning benefits
from the use OF alcoholic medicines
and beverages. AS a matter of fact it
appeared some years ago and vas pre-
pared by proliquorites in an attempt
to Offset the antialcoholic u%tterances Of
leading English physicians and sur
~geons-such men as Sir Frederick
Treves, surgeon to the king; Sir Thorn
as Barlow, physician to the king; Sir
Victor Horsley, England's greatest
neurological surgeon; Sir A. Pearce
Gould of the Middlesex hospital, Sir
James Barr, dean of the Medical
School of Liverpool university; Prof.
Sims W~oodhead OF Cambridge univer-
sity medical school, and others Of like
standing.
The statement received 16 signatures
of medical men, and half Of these, it
was discovered, were men who owned
brewery or distillery stock. 1t was
given conspicuous place in every bar
room in England and in many Ameri-
al saloons-and is still doing duty.
To the question, Is alcohol a food or
a poison, a stimulant or a depressant?
science is giving reply. Its latest re-
port comes from the nutrition labora-
tory of the Carnegie institution Of
Washington. where tests were made to
determine the effects of alcohol IN mo-
tor and mental processes. The sub
jects were college graduates. some of
them moderate drinkers, some hard
drinkers. In all the tests made the
evidence showed clearly that alcohol is
a depressant to the system, never o
stimulant.

WHAT DOCTORS THINK.

When the liquor men circularized
the physicians OF Vermont, urging
them to oppose statewide prohibition.
the replies were not what they had
hoped for. This is one Of them:
We. the members of the medical
staff of the Vermont State hospital,
submit the following as an expression
of our opinion of the use Of alcohol as
a beverage.
1--WE are now and ever shall be ut
terly opposed to the sale and use OF
alcohol in any form as a beverage; we
are absolutely opposed to any propa-
ganda that has for its purpose TO le'
galize the sale OF alcohol as a bever'
age. 1t has no place internally as a
medicine; it is always in all forms
a poison and a destroyer OF proto'
plasm and a paralyzer of protoplasmic
activity.

House for Growing Ducks.

ducks az left right where they are.
It is simply the survival of the f%ittest,
and when we get to the breeding pens
there will be ducks strung all the way
along where we have been driving
them. 1t Is only the ducks that have
strength to walk this distance, being
urged all the time, that are put in
the pen. Then we go back and clean
UP the ones that are left and they are
put into the marketing pen. 1t does
not matter how nice a duck they are,
because it is strength we are after.
1--WE put one hundred to two hun
dred ducks in a pen, and there is no
shed or anything for them to run un-
der. It is just simply a wood lot. 1t
would be Just as well to have them
run in a field, provided they had some
artificial shade, but decidedly you have
got to have some shade for ducks. If
you put ducks in a hot field in the
summertime there is danger. have
seen full-grown ducks get sunstruck
and lie down and die.
1--WE feed them there for five months
on light food. We do not want to fat
ton them. If there are any ducks that
get of their feed they are taken right
of; they are not kept. We keep Ian
terms burning in the trees on dark
nights to keep them from getting
scared.
"A peculiar thing about ducks is
that they will run and trample on
each other and jump in the corner Of
the pens II they get scared on a dark
night. If 1t is a bright moonlight
might we do not light the lanterns.
The feed for these ducks is four
parts bran to one part of flour and
one part cornmeal and one-twentieth
beef scrap. For green feed We use
four parts clover. The clover should
be about one-third or a little more than
one-third of the entire feed. You can
feed them all the green feed they will
eat. A good indication Is to watch
their troughs, and after they have
eaten their feed If they leave a little
clover in the trough you know they
are getting all they want, and may be
q little more; and If they clean this
trough up they haven't quite enough
to eat. If they have too much to eat,
they pick the green feed out and leave
nothing but the mash, and then you
know they haven't enough green feed.
I'VE feed them wet mash; mix it a
little more moist than you do for
chickens. These ducks must not be
ted ala Ley will eat. because If you
