Poultry Pointers.

Do not allow ducklings and goslings
to swim, for that checks their growth.
A late-hatched chick we'll grown is
more profitable than an early chick
that has been neglected.
Never allow growing chicks to occu-
py the same yards or to run with the
matured fowls, but keep the young,
sters separate on clean ground.
Much of the profit in poultry raising
depends on whether the chicks grow
rapidly and uniformly, and that means
whether they have the right kind of
care and feed.
There Is no economy in feeding. en-.
tirely on one grain, or even two grains,
because better results can be obtained
for less money if variety is furnished
the fowls and chicks.
Although young geese will some
times pick up enough food to keep
from starving, they will not make
enough growth to be profitable unless
fed literally when young and given
enough feed to make up, with what
they get on the range, full ration.
Clean ground, where other chicks or
fowls have not been during the sea-
son, is necessary for the best results
with little chicks, especially the late
Matched ones, because ground which
has been used by others is likely to be
more or less foul and may contain dis
ease germs.
Be sure that ducklings and goslings
are given water in dishes, fountains or
troughs large enough so that the most
of the flock can drink at one time dur
ing meals, and so arranged that each
can get its head into the water up to
its eyes but cannot tip the dish over or
get its feet into the water.

War Museums.

The war museum of the Avenue NAL
akoff, I'm Paris, is to have counterparts
In London, as well as in Berlin. The
Berlin scheme is gigantic one, aiming
at nothing less than a collection of
everything printed in connection with
the war. The London project, which
Is that Of Sir Alfred Mond, has only
just been sanctioned by the cabinet. It
seems that one Of its most interesting
features will be collection of the
proclamations issued In various parts
Of the empire during the war, among
which will be the Bagdad proclama-
ton, and such contrasts as the stately
proclamation of the city of London and
that issued in "pidgin" English to the
natives Of New Guinea.

Some Observations.

Little things trouble us and little
things console us.
Only a fool will pay twice for the
same experience.
When man becomes thoroughly
contented he has 'outlived his useful
ness.
It is easier for the borrowed UNI
brella to keep lent than it is for the
average man. g
The hardest thing in this world for
a dead game sport to do is not to tell
you about it.
Many a fool, after putting his foot
in 1t, isn't satisfied until he gets there
with both feet.
Manageable couples are fond of
star gazing because they are properly
equipped for 1t.
When a candidate places himself In
the hands of his friends they mas
sage his pocketbook freely.
Now and then you will find that
the shyest girl gets tangled up in the
boldest love affair.
If women were unable to see the
fine clothes other women wear they
would have fewer wrinkles.
When you pick up a pretty girls
handkerchief 1t is permissible to Won
der how she came to drop 1t.
When q married man walks into
public place looking mad enough to
bite a nail in two, and growls to those
who speak to him, old maids who
happen to be present shake hands with
themselves. They have nothing like
that coming home noon and evenings.

PREPARE
BY GEORGE M. ADAMS.

Success can never be without Prep
aration. Preparation means to get
ready-to be able to carry out the
more important tasks of life as they
come along. i
Prepare today for the Obligations
Of tomorrow.
You who learn to Control yourself
and stand Calm in the midst Of dis
appointments and failures, as we'll as
in the midst of success and victory,
are accommodating a reserve sure to
hold strong and steady for the times
Of stress, confusion and chaos. Pre-
pare for the emergencies to come.
Prepare, by courageously facing and
solving every problem that comes to
you daily.
The big affairs of today call for tho
trained man-for the one who Is Pre-
pared.
Consciously or unconsciously, you
are Preparing for something. Seek
and find out what that something is,
and when you find it, concentrate in
double Preparation upon it. No man
knows what his Preparation today may
mean to him tomorrow. But he is
sure that If it is Conscientiously done
to purpose, in this Preparation, he
is making the soundest possible invest
ment for his future career.
To Prepare today means to Know
How tomorrow.
