CHICKENS FOR WINTER EGGS
Careful Selection Of Fowls and Get.
ting Them Into Good Condition,
1S Best Practice.

Careful selection of the fowls that
are apt to be kept~for winter egg pro-
ducing, and getting them into condi.
ton to produce a maximum yield of
eggs, will more than repay one for
the time and trouble taken. Not only
is it advantageous from many points
Of view, but 1t is necessary If one ex=
poets a satisfactory yield Of winter
eggs. The principal reason for max
ing early selections is to. get uniform
fowls Of the right age at the right
time, but it is also necessary that
they be properly fed and cared for
SO that they be properly brought to
the laying point at the earliest pos.
sible date.

.f10F[F TOWN
HELPS
FINE FOR PICKING FLOWERS
Ordinance Protecting Yards and Park
ings OF City Prevents Selfish and
-ThoughtIess Mischief.

VI Course, In the business sections
OF city the front parkings are i'm
practicable and even many shade trees
are often not desirable, the attractive
ness OF the streets depending entirely
upon the architectural beauties Of the
buildings and the cleanliness and good
repair Of house fronts, sidewalks and
pavements, but in residence sections
the beauty depends as much upon the
condition Of the surroundings as upon
the houses themselves, and especially
upon the flower beds and lawns dur
ing at least part of the year.
1t Is often very annoying and dis
couraging to the owner of beautiful
flower beds in the front yards, which
nav been cultivated to state of high
perfection by constant care and siren
uous effort, to have their beauty
married or destroyed by mischievous
children or cOvetOuS adults, who often
pluck the flowers and break the plants
with seeming impunity. The children
should be taught to find pleasure in
looking at the flowers without pluck
ing them and an ordinance making it q
m1sdemeanor, punishable by a fine, to
pluck or injule flowers or plants in
the yards or parkings of others, would
be very useful, to restrain adults from
their selfish and thoughtless mischief
and keep them from being aggressive
enemies Of the city beautiful.
The back yards, however, protected
by fences and, gates, are usually safe
ground in which the lover of beautiful
flowers may employ his taste, knowl-
edge and judgment and expend his eff
forts to produce results that will af.
ford pleasure to himself and his house
hold, as well as to his neighbors.

Landscapina Fundamentals.

Every owner of a bit of soil should
make limited study of the art of land
scaping so that fundamental mistakes
are not made. First, do not plant your
space all over, as though it were an
orchard. Leave o. open center for
lawn or even a bare soil and plant
only about the borders 0n0 in varying
widths. Never cumber the center with
trees or shrubs. Mass the planting by
placing many of kind together: do
not space regularly so each will appear
lonely or have an orchard effect. 1t
matters little if they grow together in
q mass-nature so dispOses them. This
effect is more necessary in shrubs than
trees but even trees should interlace.
In a small garden some or even all Of
formality must be had but in place
of size we need little or none In the
large places we should avoid straight
lines. If one will follow these few sim
Die rules he cannot go far astray III
planning his own garden.

little cold milk until smooth. and
then a pint of scalded milk which has
been seasoned with slice of onion,
salt and paprika to taste. When hot
serve with toasted crackers or crOu-
tons.
Peanut Butter Biscuits.-ROll out
rather thin nice biscuit dough, spread
with peanut butter, roll up, cut in pin
wheel rolls and put to bake in a we'll
creased dripping pan. Sprinkle the
biscuits with little brown sugar If
desired or bake plain. For an emer-
gency sandwich when on a trip. two
slabs Of sweet chocolate put together
with peanut butter makes most sat
isfying meal.
Luncheon SaIad.-A slice of tomato
on headlettuce, few tips of aspara-
gus, and over all sprinkling of cream
cheese put through a sieve or ricer.
Serve with mayOnnaise dressing.
Oatmeal Muffins.-Melt four table
spoOnfuls Of butter in a cupful of
warm, cooked oatmeal, sift together
a fourth Of a cupful Of sugar, cupful
of -four, four teaspoonfuls of baking
powder and teaspoenful of salt, add
the oatmeal, one egg beaten light, and
a half cupful of milk. Mix thorough
~ and bake in hot well-buttered iron
gem pans for IS minutes.
Orange JelIy.-Cut two oranges and
one lemon in quarters, then cut each
quarter into thin slices, there will be
pint Of fruit, over this pour three pints
Of water and let stand over night. The
next day let it cook until the peel is
very tender, then drip through jelly
bag, pressing out all the Juice. Add
two and half cupfuls Of hot sugar
and cook until jelly is formed. This
will make three glasses. Add the peel
ing to one and half cupfuls Of sugar
and a fourth of eupful of water, SIM
mer until all the sugar is absorbed.
This may be used for various buildings

Never Too Many Parks.

youth to maturity, that it had too
many parks? Where is the nIunici
patty that is sorry it has so man,

sewed at the bottom of a placket, then
clamped with a tackhammer will not
come unlocked and will bear the
strain without tearing the placket. A
piece of gum camphor put away with
the silver will keep it from furnishing.
An electric fan placed in front of a
radiator will by It's motion set the
air circulating through the coils very
quickly.
The lower cellar stair as we'll as the
attic stair may be made with a hinge
and will make a fine receptacle for
various necessary things. Do not put
oil mops or polishing rags in such q
tight place, AS spontaneous combustion
may cause q serious fire.
A clothespin is handy thing to
hold q hot dish while stirring on the
stove.
A clothespin bag with a clothes
hanger for a top may be pushed along
on the line and is always ready to use.
A nutcracker may be used as
wrench on small cans and bottles as
we'll as the nuts on sewing machines
and wringers.
When using a patch on wall paper
tear the patch instead of cutting 1t lit
will be less noticeable.
An eggshell with a, pricked hole in
1t makes very good funnel in an
emergency. A piece of letter paper
rolled In the shape Of funnel will also
serve nicely. Heavy wallpaper of
light color may be covered with calso-
mine of any special tint at very little
expense.
A paper or Wooden tub or bowl is
best to use for washing dishes, as they
are less apt to be nicked by striking
the sides.
4 coat OF white paint on the out
side OF n screen door will keep those
on the outside from looking in.

SODIUM FLUORID FOR FOWL
Applied to All Parts % Body Powder
Is Sure Death to Lice-Can Be
Made Into Solution.

Sodium fuorid powder is death on
poultry lice. It can. be busted into
the feathers so it will reach the skin.
It should be applied to all parts of the
body. 1t can be made into a solution
one ounce per gallon of water and stir
well. Dip the poultry into it. The
dipping method kills the lice quicker
better and more cheap1y. The So
dunn fuorid has no bad effects on the
skin, but is a little irritating to the
air passages. 1t is, however, very
destructive to the lice.

Milk will be of great help in feed

more from the poultry than if fed to
the pigs. Feed generously at all times.
The present high prices Of feed are
alarming, but if one can't afford to
feed well at all times he had better
sell at once to some one who can.

also good chance for making a politi-
cal. issue of the land question by such

Considerable discussion of the ques-

belief that If the territorial legislature

lars in funds every session it is also
able to handle lands with discretion.

the legislature has as clean record
as any Congress.
