PoLITEaEss IN PORTUGAL.
Ceremony With Which a Visitor ls
Crested and Dismissed.

That Portuguese poiiteness is most
ceremonial and max proceed to an ex-
traordinary extent is indicated in the
case. say. of a visit to a high dignitary
The caller ascends magnificent
staircase. passes through long suit of
rooms to the apartment in which the
diSnitary is Sc. ted. He is received
with many bows and smiles.
When the witt is concluded the caller
bows and prepares to depart. When
he reaches the door he must. according
to the invaliable custom of the coun-
try. MAKE another salutation. He then
discovers that his host is following
bicl ard that the inclination is re-
turned by one equally profound. When
the caller arrives at the door of the
second apartment the dignitary is
standing on the threshold OF the first,
and the same ceremony is again passed
between them. When the third apart
ment is gained the caller observes that
his host Is occupying the place the
caller has just let in the second. The
same ciyilitieS are then renewed, and
these polite rryiprocations are contin-
ued until the caller has traversed the
whole suit of apartments.
At the baluHtrade the caller makes a
low and as he slpposes final saluta-
ton. But no: when he has reached the.
first landing Place the host is at the
top of the stairs: when the caller
stands on the second landing place his
host has descended to the first, and
upon each of these occasions their
heads wag with increasing humility.
Finally the journey to the foot Of the
stairs is accomplished.-Los Angeles

sRooplNe LITTLE CHICKS.

College Park, March 29-In his con.
tribution to the bulletin of the Mary
land State College of Agriculture on
Elementary Vocational Agriculture for
Maryland Schools, Poultryman Roy H.
Waite of the Maryland Experiment
Station says:
do not be in too much of a hurry
to get the chicks out of the nest. They
should be left alone until they are
quite strong and well dried Off Neither
should they be fed for the first forty
eight or sixty hours. Nature has pro
vided them with enough nourishment
to take care of them for this length
of time and anything they may eat
before they need it may simply clog
them up. Bright little pieces of grit
and plenty of clean water are all they
need until they are ready to begin
eating. Be careful that the chicks do
not become chilled as this is danger.
ous If it does not kill the little chicks
outright, it will often stunt their
growth or give rise to sickness that
will make them a poor business prop
osition.
"The hen should not have too many
chickens to take care Of. From Is to
20S is generally enough although an
unusually good brooder will often take
good care Of more. She will generally
decide for herself when her chicks
are ready to come off the nest. She
should not, and usually will not lead
her little ones far the first day after
leaving the nest. She will scratch
about. within short distance of the
, nest and stop to hover her chickens
frequently. II she is inclined to wan.
der too far or to travel too rapidly
for the strength of her chicks she
should be penned up or watched"

25O YEARS OF PROFIT
ABLE GRASS

In England there is park at
the famous Rothamsted expert
ment station, which has been
used as a meadow for more than
two and one-half centuries,
which was used as a hay field at
the time of the Revolution, and
which was in sod when Amer
lea was being colonized. This
park has been top dressed an
nually for the last sixty years.
At the beginning Of this period
it was producing about LIZ tons
of hay per acre. Where fertili-
zers have been used, the aver
age acre yield for so years has
been in one case 2.7 tons, in an
other 3.3 tons, and in a third
case Al tons, depending upon
the amount of top dressing ap-
piled. This is really a wonder
full accomplishment, and should
make those farmers who are
content with mining" instead
Of farming, with robbing the soil
and year after year getting
smaller and smaller crops, feel
that possibly they are using to
the fullest, the opportunities
given them.

Inflammation can be reduced and this tube
restored to it's normal condition hearing

URGl,s FARMERS TO PLANT.
LARGER AREAS.
Pressing Need of Larger Yields ON
Farms in Order to Meet the
Growing demands for
Vegetables and Meats.

President H. j. Patterson, of the
Maryland State College, urges farm
ers to plant larger areas and to cul-
tivate their crops most zealousiy i'll
order to meet the constantly increas-
ing demand for foodstuffs.
statistics show that there is less
foodstuff available at present than
there was at this time year ago."
says President Patterson. This
means, under normal conditions,
food during the coming year will be
scarcer and higher than it has been
during the past year. With these
conditions confronting us, farmers
can not only take care of their own
interests, but the interests of the
consumers by growing as large crops
as possible. Every farmer should
plant as large an area as he will be
able to take care of with the capital
and labor at his command.
Farmers should also practice an
intensive system of farming; for
there will be greater relative profit
returned by growing as large crop
as possible on a given area. With
food conditions during the comings
year there will probably be more
profit in growing staple/vegetable
than in growing the fancy vege-
tables"

Why Constipation Injuries.

The bowels are the natural sewer
age system of the body. When they
become obstructed by constipation a
part of the poisonous matter which
they should carry off is absorbed
into the system, making you feel
dull and stupid, and interfering with
the digestion and assimilation OF
food. This condition is quickly re-
lieved by Chamberlain Tablets.

The Use of Candy.

Pure candy is good for children. Pure
sugar is good for grown people. OF
course there are exceptions to every
rule. If the doctor prescribes a diet
and orders patient to refrain from
sweets the patient is bound to obey
his adviser. What is the use OF calling
a physician and paying him for sug-
gestions If the latter are treated with
Indifference? People In ordinary health
need not be afraid to crafty an appe-
title which Graves sweets. Those who
have looked into the matter have been
telling us lately that soldiers on the
march hold out better If they have
rations of sugar than If their food
omits this useful commodity. A. fond
ness for sugar is often defense
against the temptation to use alcoholic
stimulants. The inebriate does not care
very much about pure sweets.

AN UNREASONABLE FISH.
Fine In Flavor and Food Value, Vet
Our ANGLERS Discard it.


1t seems as il there are fashions in
fish Just now as there are in wearing
apparel. A fish that brings I'm German
markets nearly four times as much per
pound as our fresh mackerel and con-
siderably more than paddock is thrown
away by our fishermen because no one
wants to eat IL. Yet those who eat IL
praise it for its delicate flavor. Even
the English like IT. Every year they
consume 5000 tons OF il. Yet We will
have none OF IL.
This fish is known as the goosefish,
anglerfish, devilfish and monkfish.
True, its appearance is against il. but
still the epicures in England and Ger
many demand IL because IL is delicious.
Analyses made by the bureau OF fish
cries on samples show that goosefish
contains considerably more protein
than founder, slightly more than cod.
q little less than halibut and consider
ably less than sirloin steak.
The goosefish has an average length
Of three feet and is broad and fiat,
somewhat resembling the founder in
general outline. The only way to get
ii, says q Philadelphia woman, is for
the housewives to club together and
demand it. At the present time fisher
men do not take the trouble to bring it
home, but discard it from their nets
