THE SUNDAY SCHOOL
LESSON FOR AUG. IS
ACCORDING TO THE
INTERNATIONAL SERIES
Text Of the Lesson, III Chron. xxxlv, l.
13-Memory Verses, 2, 3-GOlden
Text, Eccles. xii, 1-Commentary
Prepared by Rev. ID. nj. Stearns.

The first verse of our lesson, with
the marginal reading, might indicate
that the book they found was an orig
inal copy by the hand Of Moses, but 1t
might have been another copy, accord
ing to Deut. xvii, IS, 10; III Kings xi. II;
Josh. 4, s. 1t Is sufficient to know that
II was the Book of the Law Of the
Lord, which, when 1t was read to the
king, caused him to rend his clothes
and send to Huldah, the prophecies, to
inquire of the Lord, through her, what
they should do xix, 22). This was In
the eighteenth year Of his reign (xxxiv,
8; xxxv, 19), and jeremiah began to
prophesy when thirteen. Therefore why
send to Huldah instead of TO jeremiah?
Perhaps because Huldah was there I'm
Jerusalem and jeremiah was prob
ably at Anathoth Oh Kings xxi, IA; Jer.
|, u. 1t is interesting to notice in this
connection the honor placed upon such
women as Huldah and Deborah and
Hannah and others and to remember
that Mary of Bethany knew the Lord
better In many ways than any Of the
other women or even than Peter and
John. Some women seem to have
keener eyes and ears and a more open
heart for God than most men.
/ often ask God to give me guidance
through my dear wife, who walks so
humbly with Him; then all goes well.
Huldah had a good message for Jo-
siah, because of his humility and ten
der heart, when he heard the words Of
the Lord, for, although God is the high
and lofty one who inhabiteth eternity,
whose name is holy, He has regard to
the contrite and humble spirit that
trembles at His word Qsa. lvii, Is.
Xvi, p. Josiah called together oil the
people Of Jerusalem, priests and Le-
vites, and all the inhabitants, great
and small, and he read In their ears
all the words of the book Of the cove
nant that was found In the house Of
the Lord, and he promised with all his
heart and with all his soul to perform
the words Of the covenant and caused
all present to stand to 1t. And all the
days of Josiah they departed not from
following the Lord God Of their IA

egg making is possible. Sprouted
oats, cabbage, beets, carrots and po-
tatoes are all good.
90 What would be your sugges-
ton for a chicken house?
The more money put into the build
ing the greater the interest on the
investment and the harder the hens
will have to work to show a real pro-
fit. Make the house as cheap as pos
sible and have it comfortable for the
hens and convenient for yourself. A
popular design is a building seven
feet from sill to plate in front and
FIVE feet in the rear, 16 feet deep and
10 feet long for each 40 hens to be
housed. There should be two large
windows in the front for each ten
feet of length, the bottom half filled
with glass and the upper half with a
cheesecloth covered frame which may
be opened on pleasant days. After
the framework has been put up,
spread tarred paper over it and cover
this with the siding. Nail lath over
the edges of the paper so air will not
come through at the laps. This
makes a cheap but comfortable build
in. Have drinking vessels, food hop
pers and busting box Is to Is inches
above the floor so, they will not be
filled with dirt and litter and the en-
tire floor space is available for
scratching purposes.
(4) Would you advise double walls
with sawdust between? 1t is very
cold here for a time during the winter.
The advantage of double walls, if
any, would be so slight as to not be
worth the extra expense. Cold does
not hurt poultry if the atmosphere of
the house is pure. Be sure of suffi-
cient ventilation and no drafts. Hens
endure long cold spells better than
abrupt changes in temperature. Dur
ing extreme cold weather give them
an extra feed of grain at noon to
keep them exercising and be sure
their%crop are full at night.
(5) Would you use a board floor or
the natural ground?
Neither. Concrete is more sani-
tary, will last longer, costs about one
sixth as much as the cheapest board
floor and is as easily laid. A thick
coat of concrete is not needed for a
poultry house floor. One inch is suf-
ficient if the ground has been careful
ly leveled and packed. Take one
part cement and four parts sand. Put
on thin so it spread easily and trowel
down well. Sift a pint of clear ce-
ment to each square yard and trowel
down perfectly smooth. This will
give a hard, smooth finish that will
not injure the claws of the fowls and
will not be married by their cratching.
On heavy soils the floor should be at
least foot above the surface of the
ground, and to make it absolutely
moisture proof spread tarred paper
over the packed earth before the con-
crete is laid. On sandy soils this
will not be necessary, though the
floor should be at least six inches
above the surface level. The cost of
this floor, not counting sand and Ia
Dor, should not exceed sixty cents per
hundred square feet. This will be
returned the first year in saving of
food and litter, not to mention the
greater egg yield due to absence of
dust and filth.

breeds. Some claim To have good
success with less number of males
and say there is no use in keeping
so many ROSTERS fighting and eating
food. Purchase all your birds at the
same place and you will have little
trouble with them fighting. As to
feed, the farmer has an abundance,
better feed enough male birds and be
certain Of good matches. We like to
have an extra bird or two at COM
mand if one should die or become dis
abled A number of times we have
been glad we had an extra for il is
difficult to get good male bird on
short notice.
In selecting males no matter what
variety, they should be well matured.
have prominent well developed comb
and wattles. Bright red color in
comb and wattles, and clear eyes de-
note high degree of health and vigor
1.-The most essential points. Avoid
an wry-tailed rooster, and remember,
not all pure-bred birds are good ones.
A good breeder is better the second
year than the first and his chicks are
stronger. And often these old birds
may be bought cheaper than cock
erels.
Some say, don't buy so many roos-
tiers, get one extra good one and pen
him with, IL or Is of your best hens.
The trouble with this plan is, the
average farmer has too many other
irons in the fire to give penned birds
the attention they should have to in
sure good matches.
, Don't get the notion that it won't
do any harm to keep ROSTERS of your
own raising. Inbreeding decreases

The Male Birds

Much depends on themale birds and
they may be purchased now for less
money than late in the season. after
they have been placed in winter quar-
tiers. We like to get our roosters
early in the fall so as to condition
them before the breeding season Is
on. And we do not like the idea of
having them shipped in cold weather
with possible delay at some transfer
station when the temperature is
around zero.

keep six males; and seven males we
find are about the right number for

nor the local workers are responsible
for the red tape OF the Red Cross.
Many may think it unnecessary, and
that the rules for making the gar
ments are entirely too strict but it is
tue duty OF Red Cross workers to fol
low Instructions like good soldiers.
There is nothing personal in the in
structons, every worker is his or her

are anxious that Chickasha has moi

the best medium for helping the sol
