Does it look as if the Nonpartisan League is attempting to
steal the school funds of the state? Why does, not Senator
sandstrom and the other "antisocialist" orators tell these facts
in place of attempting to prejudice the public by extravagant' un-
founded charges of "attacks upon our sacred school funds"
"Patriotism" and "MoraIty."
Senator sandstrom points with professed horror to the tact
that the words Patriotism and Morality" have been omitted
from the proposed new constitution. Mr.. sandstrom knows that
these words appear in a preamble to Section LAT OF the old constl-
tuition, and that this preamble or patriotic. inspiring lntrc a 3
ton" as the pamphlet "A Socialist Constitution" deslgnates IT, IS
of no consequence as a part of the constitution. Section LAT reads
as follows:
"A high degree of intelligence, patriotism, integrity and morality on the
part Of every voter in a government by the people being necessary in order
to insure the continuance of that government and the prosperity. ana nappr
ness Of the people, the legislative assembly shall make provision 0 Tn
maintenance Of a system of public schools, etc. N
House Bill A omits the fowery and useless introduction down
to the words "the legislative assembly shall make provision for
the maintenance of a system Of public schools, etc" From there
on the provisions are the same in the old and new constitution
Will any sane man insist that this Patriotic, inspiring intro
duction" is necessary in order to make this section OF the consti-
tuition any more effective? Why not head every section in the en-
tire constitution the same way or similarly? It would be just as
proper as an introduction to every constitutional provision as to
this particular section, and because Of the patent fact that it was
Of no value in the basic law Of the state, it was very properly left
out in House Bill "A.

Aids Growth.

A warm cellar or furnace room
makes good places In which to sprout
oats. Light is not essential, though IL
the oats are sprouted in the dark they
will not have green color. One days
exposure to light will turn the sprouts
green. however. Sprlnklihg the oats
twice n day with water as warm as the
hand can stand, will greatly hasten
growth, but sprinkllng with cold water
will result In a much slower growth,
writes T. u. Rlchey In Farm and Home.
The box or tray in which the oats
are sprouted should provide good
drainage. II the water stands in the
trays the oats will mold and be unsafe
for feeding. A block Of oats foot

EGG TESTER IS HANDY
Examination Should Be Made
Twice During Incubation.
Useful Device Can Easily Be Made
From Double Thickness OF Heavy
Paper-Fertile Eggs Will
Have Dark Spot.
Clemson College pulletIn.l


All eggs that are incubating should
be examined twice during the hatch
ing period. An egg tester can be
made from mailing tube. Pre-
pare double thickness OF heavy
brown paper, four inches square, place
one end Of the tube at the center
and double the edges of the paper
over ito form paper cap. Fasten
the cap with three wrappings of cord.
Cut hole one inch in diameter In the
top Of the cap.
The free end of the tube Is placed
at the eye and the egg to be examined
is pressed lengthwise against the hole
In the cap. Point the tester and egg
TO the sun or bright light and you
can plainly see the contents of the
egg.
The eggs are first tested at the end
of the first week. The fertile eggs
with live embryos In them have Il

eggs can be kept and boiled hard for

The eggs are again tested at the end
the second week. At this stage OF
Incubation a live embryo darkens all
the egg except the air cell in the large
end. Eggs appearing otherwise are
rejected.
Two or three hens should be set
at the same time. BY testing the eggs
at the end of the first week, It is
usually possible to remove sufficient

LIVED UNDER SIX SOVEREIGNS
Aged Resident Of New Brunswick
Ascribed Long Life to His Ac-
tivity and Earty Retiring.

After posing for his picture on his
one hundredth and fifth birthday an.
niversary, Levi w. Richardson, said to
be the oldest man in New Brunswick,
died before he had fairly started his
one hundredth and sixth year. lie
had been i'll for only about ten days.
Mr.. Richardson ascribed his long
life and remarkable preservation of
his faculties to going to bed early
and being active.
He had followed the operations OF
the war with the most careful atten.
tion, and his only ambition for the
last year, says the Mutual Star, had
been to live long enough to see Great
Britain and its allies successful, for
he had lived under six sovereigns and
had watched with interest the ex.
panslon of the empire.
More than so children, grandchildren
and great-grandchildren survive him.

CONSTRUCTION OF HENHOUSE
Shape Of Building Should Be Taken
Into OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES Struc-
ture Is Cheapest.

In constructing a poultry house the
shape of the building should be taken
into consideration. Four square feet
Of floor space should be allowed each
bird. A continuous house, such as 10
feet deep and 40 feet long, contains
400 square feet. 1t has perimeter Of
100 feet and holds 100 birds. A square
house of 20 by 20 feet contains the
same number Of square feet, holds the
same number of birds and contains 20
feet less of wall in perimeter measure
ment. A square house is the cheapest
type of poultry house to build.

! POULTRY MANURE is USEFUL
Mixed With sifted Woods Earth II
May Be Profitably Used for Corn
and Garden Crops.

Poultry manure, from hens fed upon
mixed grain, bone and meat meal, clo-
yer or alfalfa meal, mixed with wheat
bran and fiaxseed meal, Is very rich
in plantfood. This manure should be
mixed with sifted woods earth, or
rich earth and kept dry. This mix
ture may be proftably used for corn
and truck crops.
Fine manure from cattle and sheep
pens and scrapings from the barnyard
on most farms, will be enough to fer
tillze several acres. The great diff
Guilty in using bulky manures is the
labor and time ie takes to apply them.
These methods are well suited to the
farmer having family help, but not for
the one employing day hands at high
prices.

III. l.. Kempster of the Missouri Col
lege of Agriculture gives the following
essentials for successful poultry feed
ing:
1. Grain (scratch feed) and ground

2. Animal feed, such as beef scrap
or sour skim milk.
3. Grit and oyster shell.
4. Green food.
o. Clean. fresh water.
@. Liberal feeding.
Z. Plenty of exercise.
8. Regular attention.
Hens eat from five to eight pounds
of feed n month, or sixty to eighty
pounds in year. The daily feed eaten
by n hen is from three to four ounces.
The daily ration for 100 hens is from
nineteen to twenty-five pounds.
Hens drink about six pounds of milk
a month. One hundred hens drink pa
gallons of milk daily.
On limited range a laying hen eats
Two pounds OF grit and three pounds
Of oyster shell in year.

LIFT YOUR C0RNS

How to loosen q tender corn

without pain.

Let folks step On your feet hereafter;
wear shoes size smaller II you like,
for corns will never again send electric
sparks Of pain through you, according
to this Cincinnati authority.
He says that few drops Of drug;
called freezone, applied directly upon
q tender, aching corn. instantly re-
neves soreness, and soon the entire
corn, root and all, lifts right out.
This drug dries at once and simply
shrivels up the corn or callus without
even irritating the surrounding skin.
A small bottle Of freezone obtained
at any drug store will cost very little
but will positively remove every hard
or soft corn or callus from ones feet.
II your druggist hasn't stocked this
new drug yet, tell him to get small
bottle of freezone for you from his

When the egg Is incubated and the

chicks leg band and as soon us the

placed in the chicks wing where 1t

prevent confusing the pullct with the
