including the children, walked The
 whole distance and carried their sup per with them. Through the kind ness of MT. J, Ikuta a number who
 were unable to leave business till
 e late hour, were taken out in his
 automobile. The walk to the gath
 erino pace Is one of much inter- 1 est. The Sunayside ranch of MT. Henry Clark Is passed on the way
 and the garden Is just beginning to put forth its crop. The raspberry bushes are in leaf and the rhubar5 so famous for size is well on iSs
 way to pie and sauce making, while other vegetables are just putting on an extra leaf or two after the seedlings. The grounds are well and carefully tended and the neat homo forms a bright spot in their midst. From the ranch the road, though new, is very good. The trees and shrubs are showing their full sized leaves and everywhere the spring Is awakening to life and fruitage. As the camp came in sight everything was in action; to the south of the main camp the younger set under the patronage of several matrons had built a camp fire "all by themselves" and were buslly preparing supper. Two dogs were with them and they too, had their rhare of sport by going into the creek in search of sticks over which they played and fought to their satisfaction. The main camp under the guidance of w. L. Lands borough and direction of President IL. H. Pedersen, was pleasantly pitched in a sheltered nook and a fire for cooking was already roaring with two large coffee pots swing ling over the hottest place. soon another big bon fire was built by willing hands, rugs were spread and friends grouped about it fol warmth and good cheer. Some brought raw material for the pleas ure of preparing it over the camp fire and several of the young lad II ies took lessons as meek cheecha' ikoes are wont to do from a wise sourdcugh who has seen years oj Iectiye trail building and camping cut. The lesson was in frying over the hot fire by using a stick of right size to support the handle and using a pointed stick to turn the contents of the pan. Each ont took what pleased his appetite ana all took his own basket supplied with all the necessary things, cups
 knives, forks and so forth. Coffee sugar and cream were furnished by the club. After supper, whicl was announced at half past six those who wished went into tho nearby woods and gathered Yio
 lets and other sweet and woodsey plants. Then came the picture taking and then burning all rub
 bish in and around the camp-theI Home sweet home" with tired mus cIes and desire to go early tc bed. The Alpiners are planning another delightful hike in the nea, future.

If any or all of these things are to

A. g. Shoup, superintendent Of the

arrived at Seattle. says the Post-Intel-
ligencer of that city.
This .sourdough' home was estab-
lished by the territory in 1913" said
Mr.. Shoup, "and we now have sixty
five inmates. most of them old fellows,
who have pioneered 1t in almost every
district Of Alaska.
"The territory established this home
for the purpose Of caring for the old
'sourdoughs' and the Sitka institution
Is really haven for these old fellows,
who have become incapacitated from
further pursuing the golden rainbow.
The average Of these sixty-five inmates
Is sixty-eight years. and among them
we have several who have been pros
pecting In Alaska for forty years.

mates Of this home the territory also
has a pension system which cares for
the needs Of a number Of others who
are not altogether helpless, as well as
Of the widows and needy women"

1t was snowy day, and the snow

POULTRY POINTERS

Sudden fright and excitement at
once tells on the egg crop. Never
allow strange dogs about where the
hens are.
Don't relax the care Of the chicks
They will become inactive and dis
eased.
Market the broilers and all the roost-
ers that you don't want to keep for
breeding purposes.
Uniform products command the best
prices. Purebred fowls produce uni
form products.
When selling the eggs to the coun-
| try merchant or cash buyer. insist that
the transaction be on a quality basis
After one tot Of chickens Ia re-
moved from the brooder house, clean
thoroughly and spray with disin-
fectant.
Clean up the incubator; use a good
disinfectant; empty the oil and throw
the wick away. Allow the machine to
dry thoroughly before closing the
door up tight.
Regularity Of feeding means much
Those who feed spasmOdically are
likely either to injure the fowls by
overlooking or not give enough. per
haps both. The birds should have their
feed regularly.
Eggs are easily affected by bad
odors. Do not keep in a musty grain
bin. or In the vegetable cellar, or
where they can absorb the Odors of
| kerosene and gasoline.
Marketing must be done at the right
time and in the right manner. This
Is very important for 1t will be the
final test Of profitable poultry raising.
There should be method in marketing.
Not only should feeding be regular.
but the quantity should be ample. II
would be waste of feed to give too
much, but enough should be given and
just enough. Surely this requires
method.
Method has much to do with poul-
try raising even where farmers have
small flocks. Just as method Is re-
sponsible for much in general farm
ing so Is 1t important in raising poul-
try.
