little as possible She should have plenty of food, water and green stuff near by.
 As the time for matching approaches when hens or turkeys are used. the eggs should be sprinkled daily with warm water. This is especially necessary in dry weather Sprinkling is not necessary when a goose is used for matching, be- cause the body of a goose exudes suf- ficient moisture.
 Caring for the Goslings
 The object of moisture is to soften the shell for the goslings to break through easily. During. incubation the hard shell carbonic acid gas. With plenty of mois- ture the process of disintegration takes place more readily. If the weather and the sitting bird do not provide sufficient moisture, it must be supplied artificially to give best results.
 Where moisture has not been supplied in sufficient aauntity, the gosings some times need help in getting out of the thick shells This not only requires care, but it has to be done at the right time. If blood appears on the shell and the membrane are broken away, the egg should be replaced for further incuba . ton. A few more hours of natural heat and the blood will become absorbed. The gosling can then be helped out by mos- : tening the shell which will break away easily.

Grow Potatoes in Window Boxes

From the Popular Science Monthly In view of the shortage of potatoes and onions in America. and of the diff f1culty in supplying the demand tor table use. the question of seed pota- toes is a serious one. The following plan has been adopted by some thrifty housewives to increase not only their individual supply of potatoes but their Din money accounts as well by pro- yiding some for marketing.
 From each batch of potatoes pre- paerd for cooking, piece from the ssrose" end (the end where most of the eyes are) is cut off before peeling Each piece should weigh not less than one and one-half ounce These pieces are planted in shallow window boxes in leaf mold. coconut fiber or sand. The boxes are kept in the window ot a cool bust frostproof room and ths sprouts are grown in them until they are from one-half to one inch high Then they are planted as seed pota- toes.
 To prevent the cut pieces from shriveling before they are planted. the cut surface Is dusted over with dry. powdery plaster of Paris. dry slaked lime, or finely powdered charcoal.

Taking the Poison out of Salt

From the Popular Science Monthly.
 As IT as the supply of salt goes there is enough available to last us forever. Michigan alone claims to be able to sup ply the whole world for 2OOO years with all the salt it needs. But no matter how plentiful salt may be, it has the disadvantage of being a poison, for no salt is wholly pure. Thus, If the poison in salt can be eliminated vast additional sources will be available.
 Scientists have come to the front and have tackled the problem successfully. By adding A solution of just the right amount of sulphate of soda, the barium or poison in the salt is changed to sulphate, and with it Is removed the pink or brownish color due to iron salts. Thus is made available an unlimited supply of salt. which means more raw material for our chemical industries, because the barium- bearing salt Is used for salting hides, for glazing pottery and for making ice.

RAISING GEESE ON THE FARM;
 THEIR MANY ADVANTAGES

 There is a growing demand for the goose as a table bird. It's flesh Is sweet and tender. When crate fattened the liver of a goose is considered a great delicacy. Goose fat is used for vari- ous purposes. The feathers are valu- able as a by-product The young are not hard to raise. Some claim geese are taking the place of turkeys on the farm
 Goose eggs are large in size and usually thick in shell. They may be matched with hens, turkeys, geese or incubators. As rule natural incuba- tion gives better results than the arti- fcial method. The period of matching ranges from 2S to 30 days; 1t varies with the season. method of incubation and other conditions.
 When a goose first begins to lay, the eggs should be removed from the nest as fast as they are laid. This in duces the goose to continue laying. A barrel turned on its side, or a large box with half of one side knocked off makes an ideal nesting place for Q goose. This should be placed in an open shed or poultry house. Dry hay is good nesting material
 If hens are used for matching, not more than four eggs should be set in the early part of the season. A large size hen will cover five or six eggs successfully in warm weather The best hens for matching goose eggs are the heavier breeds. like Plymouth Rocks and Wyandottes. They should be set in sheltered place and disturbed as little as possible
 Where a turkey or goose is used for matching, either bird will cover 12 or 13 eggs. If the nest is accessible, the gander will sometimes assist in 1ncubating, While incubating is going on the goose should be disturbed as

 In some instances Buff Wyandottes orig mated from light-colored Rhode Island Reds; in others they came from Golden Wyandottes. Buff Cochins are some- times used to perfect the color, and White Wyandottes shown today are almost per- lection in shape and color.
 The hens have always been consistent layers. Many individuals and fiocks have made enviable records The chicks are strong and vigorous. make rapid growth, and are easily salable from broil- CT size to maturity.

SENATOR SMITH EXPLAINS

Atlanta. GaY 5aiy il==United State.
Senator Hoke Smiths reply to Judg,
Andrew J. Cobb, Of Athens; which
was telegraphed from Washington
and printed in an Atlanta paper, has
been read with great deal Of inter.
est by members of the legislature and
state officials generally, as we'll as
citizens from various sections of the
state in Atlanta in connection with
the session of the general assembly.
Senator Smiths statement was Civ
en- out by way of reply to certain
remarks concerning him in the course
of Judge Cobb's speech to the legis-
lators and others in Athens on the
Fourth of July. Judge Cobb said I'VE
did not Ills, the way the senator talk
ed when he said he was opposed to
going outside the constitution to win
the war" ~
Replying to the judges remarks,
Senator Smith says:
Judge Cobb had a perfect right
not to like what l said, but he had
no right to create the impression that
| uttered view disloyf to my coun-
try or the president fn connection
with the conduct of the war. l cannot
believe he meant to create such an
impression, for it would have been
utterly false" iu~l
The senator then goes on to show
that the constitution OF the United
States contains all the powers and au-
thorities necessary for the use of the
president and congress in the conduct
of the war, and he recites the fact
that congress during the present extra
session has speedily enacted the great
est war program in history in re-
markedly short time, including meas
ures, for the increase of the amry to
100000 men, for the increase of the
navy to 10000 men, for an appropria-
ting more than $4,OO0,OOO,O0O for the
army and navy, and for an issuance of
81 O0O,0OO,0O0 of war bonds, and that
he has supported each and all of these
measures.
Instead of seeking to hinder the
president in his work, as has been
charged" concludes the senator, 81
regard him as a great leader, and
believe it the duty of every man to do
war, and help win it as quickly as
possible"

ing shortly and as represent een-

county of Ben Hill. / do not hesitate
to say that will do all that can to
defeat this bill. cannot conceive
the idea that my constituents would
tqlfMlS for moment that l could sup
pore bill Of this kind. A bill in my
Judgment If passed will be far-reach-
ing and record toward unciviiiza-
ton. If we legislators broke down
the Sabbath laws of our land in one
instance and allow work to go on on
Sunday legally by an act of the legis-
lature. then we have taken into Our
own hands the responsibility for the
violation of the holy command "Ob-
serve the Sabbath Day and Keep III

To pass such a law as this would
force hundreds of poor laborers to
work on Sunday or lose their Jobs.
These poor people depending on the
public works of the railroads are
among the best people of our land
and why should we force them to
work on Sunday when it is the only
day in the week given them by the
great Creator of this universe as a
day of rest and observance of him
who created the heavens and earth in
SIX days and rested on the seventh,
These people want to go to church
and to see their neighbors, and why
make slaves of them by an act Of the

step backward in the civilized world.

a talk with Councillor Williams, who
is studying the legal phrases of the
question in the light of the recent
opinion of Attorney General Gregory.
Georgia is not any worse off than
other states which are expecting to
share in the federal good roads fund.-"
said Judge Patterson on leaving for
Atlanta this afternoon. "Work in all
states is being held up until it can be
definitely settled what roads are sus-
ceptible of improvement as post

The possibilities of this new method
of raising potatoes, in the saving of
labor and of land, are amazing to con-
template. When outside conditions
are favorable the production can be
carried on successfully under glass
and shipping from warmer climes is
made unnecessary. With such cheap
source of food supply within the
reach of all the people of the earth the
