MORE THAN ENTERTA INMENT.
Music an Art Equal to Painting and
SCULPTURE.

Much depends upon the way one looks
upon music. The average person re-
CARDS it AS mere entertainment. The,
child is sent to music teacher because
it is distinction to bc able to perform
with some facility upon a musical instr,'-
ment, and because people are readily
entertained by the performance. The
object of many young woman who is
learning to sing is to procure favorable
notice. She wants to hear people say,
GLOW clever she is, when the real objcc9
of singing is to compel people to say
GLOW beautiful the music is" Advcr-
tiscments urging people to ''leaIn to
play rag time in 10 lessons are based
upon the entertainment ideal. II music
is to be merely pastime, then rag. time
il as good az anything, provided the
average brain content OF the company
issuch as to enjoy it.

GET RETURNS FROM POULTRY
On Many Farms Products From Fowls
Can Be Counted on as Practically
Clear. Profit.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agrculture.)
The farmer who raises the ordinary
perhaps the greatest opportunity that
has ever come to him for making
profit from poultry. The possibilities
for profit are perhaps not so large as
they used to be for the special poultry
farmer, and that fact may have led
some general farmers to believe that
the situation applies in some way to
them; but there exists just here an
unusual paradox. The very conditions
that may make poultry and egg pro-
duction losing enterprise on the spe-
ciallzed poultry farm tend to make 1t
an increasingly gainful one for the
general farmer. Where nearly all
of his feed has to be bought at high
prices, the margin between cost of pro-
duction and proceeds from sale be-
comes extremely narrow, but where
practically all of the poultry feed is
made up of waste materials that would
otherwise not be utilized In any man.
ner, the percentage of profit becomes
very much larger when prices are
high than 1t ever could have been
when prices were low. Poultry on
the farm obtain very great part of
their feed by foraging, by cleaning the
waste from stable yards and feeding
lots, by consuming the scraps from the
kitchen door, by preying upon insect
pests In pasture and field, and In
only relatively small degree from
grain or other commodities that would
be marketable. A farmer whose pOul-
try is fed in this way may count
all of the money received for eggs
and surplus poultry as practically
clear profit. When, therefore, eggs
and poultry are selling at higher prices
than have usually been obtainable, the
farmers margin of profit without ex-
pendlture is very greatly increased.
1t is, therefore. to the farmers Of
the country that the nation must look
for the greater part Of the immedi-
ate increase of poultry products which
will make II possible to supply our
own army and navy with red meats
and at the same time furnish the allies
with the animal foods they need

BRIEFS ABOUT BIRDS.

Birds migrating at night average
longer flights than the hay migrants.
The nighthawk performes the long
est migration journey of any land
bird. Its trip is 1000 miles, from the
Yukon to Argentina.
The files of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture contains
more than 100000 cards concerning
the distribution and migration of
North American birds.
The Arctic tern holds all records
for length of migration. When the
young are full grown the entire family
leaves the Arctic regions and several
months later is found skirting the
edge of the Antarctic continent.

Wintering Idle Horses.

At this time of the year practically
all the heavy work on most farms has
been finished, and during the winter
horses are more or less idle. Since
idle horses give no return in labor
performed, the feeding should be as
economical as possible, and proper
care should be taken of the animals in
order that they may be in the best
possible condition for work in the
early spring.
Horses should not be confined to
the barn during the winter on lib
eral supply of grain. 1t is far better
to rough" them through the cold
months. They should be given the run
of the yard or lot during the day
This should be provided with a pro-
tected shed, one that is thoroughly
dry and well provided with bedding
While nature does her part and pro-
tects the horse with heavy coat of
hair during the cold months, the shed
is necessary in order to afford the
necessary shelter and protection a.
gainst rains, snow and cold winds.
Winter winds come mostly from the
north and northwest and the shed
should be so situated and constructed
as to give the proper protection from
the quarter.
In the feeding OF idle horses high
priced feed should be avoided in order
to keep them in proper condition at
the lowest cost 1t has been found
that idle horses do very well on a win
ter feed consisting of all the hay, oat
straw, cornstalks, or sorghums they
will consume, SO that little grain is
necessary. Idleness also permits OF a
more thorough mastication of the feed
thus insuring proper digestion,

FARMING is A BUSINESS.

A farm is a business, and crop
yields are only one part of that bust
ness. Studies in farm management
show that a farm to make money
must usually have a large business,
must have good crops and live stock,
and must have these enterprises so
selected and organized on the farm
that the labor will be kept busy
throughout large part of the year
While it is important that farmer
avoid poor yields, he should not
Judge the success of his farm by its
yields alone.

NEW MEASURE WILL SET CLOCKS OF NATION UP ONE
 HOUR.
WORK DAY TO BEGIN EARLIER
Organizations All Over the Country Asked for Change-WiII Be Changed Back to Nor
 nal Time Oct 31.

shington.-Clocks all over the country will be set ahead one hour be ginning March 31, under the so-called daylight saving bill passed by the house, 252 to 40,
 Senator Calder, author of the meas ure in the upper branch of congress, said he thought the house amend ly. so that conference would not be necessary.
 The bill provides that at o'clock a. m on the last Sunday in March each year clocks all over the country which affect any operations of the federal government or railroads shall be set ahead one hour At o'clock D. III. the last Sunday in October of each ytar they are to be retarded one hour. All business relating in any way to the federal government will be con- ducted on the time set. Further in ducement for it's use by every one is given in designating the times in the various zones, as United States stand ard eastern time, United States stand ard central time, etc.
 In as much as commercial and la Dor organizations over the country have petitioned for the bill. congress expects a general agreement with the law everywrere. The five zones are to be fixed by order of the interstate commerce commission. But it is d. rected in the bill to have due regard" for the present railroad classified tions. The unofficial understanding is that no important change is to be made in present arrangements. There will be eastern, central, mountain, Pa cific and Alaskan time.
 Representative Dewait of Pennsyl- vania said that under daylight say ing France had saved s10,000, 900 and Great Britain $12000,000 in fuel which would have been used for light ing in five and a half months.

At the cost of q small jar of ordinary cold cream one can prepare full quar- ter pint of the most wonderful lemon skin whitener and complexion beauti- fer, by squeezing the juice of two fresh lemons into a bottle containing three ounces of orchard white. Care should be taken to strain the juice through a fine cloth so no lemon pulp gets in, then this lotion will keep fresh for months. Every woman knows that lemon juice is used to bleach a dark ened skin and remove such blemishes as freckles, sallowness and tan and is the ideal skin softener and beautifier.
 Just try it! Get three ounces of orchard white at any drug store and two lemons from the grocer and make up quarter pint of this sweetly frag- rant lemon lotion and massage it daily into the face, neck. arms and hands. It is marvellous to whiten rough, red handS.-Adv.

kota, who made rather striking speech in the senate last week on the conditions of labor and the extrava- gance of the government, thinks that the question of labor might be solved to some extent If a great many people who have been idle should be set to work. Taking the census figures of 1900 the latest available, he found that there were males between the ages of eighteen and sixty-two to the num- Der of 6.539,652 who were not em- ployed In any gainful occupation. Be tween the same ages were in round numbers 25,O00,0O0 women who were not engaged in any remunerative em- ployment. He said that there were enough unemployed men to make up the shortage of labor In the shipbuild- ing plants and on the farms, and many women could take the places of men in their present occupations. But he did not explain how In this land of the free we were going to make these unemployed go to work either in the factory, shop or on the farm.
