While the bitter internal political
situation in Austria Hungary seems
to have abated somewhat in intens-

beneath the surface the fire of dis
content is merely smoultering and
that at no distant date it again NAV
break out in veritable conflagra-
ton.
The politicians apparently with op-
timistic utterances have qualified a
situation that admittedly is fraught
with grave possibilities so far as
the dual monarchy is concerned,
but the known var WEAKNESS of the
populace and the food shortage are
likely soon again to bring the peo-
pie into sharp discord with the au-
horities.

asserted took more than a million

farms the tendency has been the
other way. On a farm a flock of
free pigeons, if not kept down by
killing off the INCREASE, soon be-
combes nuisance, destroying grain
and doing a great deal Of damage,
especially on new-seeded ground.
The remedy for this is to keep the
pigeons under control and use the
young birds, except the few needed
to keep up the flock, as fast as
ready for the table. BY establishing
the flock Of pigeons in an accessible
place, giving them a little feed oc-
casionally in their loft, and keeping
them shut in and feeding them
when they could damage new-seed-
ed ground, farm flock of pigeons
can be made to contribute substan-
TALLY to the meat supply, and still
be prevented from doing any Sc
rious damage.

Thrift Stamp Work /
Public Schools

In selling thrift and savings
stamps children are subjected to
loss of time and annoyance, and
frequently lose sales, if they are
not supplied with cards and stamps
for delivery at the time the sales
are made. To illustrate: A child
enters an office or home and sells
one or more stamps. He then goes
to the post office or a bank and
buys the stamps, after which he
must return to the purchasers and
deliver the stamps. This is dis
couraging to the child and necessi-
tates the loss of much time and oc-
casionally a purchaser refuses to
pay before the stamps are deliver
ed. Several parishes and towns
have overcome the difficulty here
mentioned in the following manner:
A bank or store agrees to furnish
stamps and thrift cards and Saw
ings Certificates to teachers on re-
QUESTION of the superintendent or
principal. The teachers receive the
supplies and give receipts for them.
The teachers then supply the child
rem with cards and stamps as their
needs require, and the children. de-
liver the stamps as they sell them.
This is an excellent way to handle
the matter provided superintend-
ents and teachers go about it in a
thoroughly business-like manner. It
will be necessary for the superin-
tendent to audit the teachers ac-
counts and require settlements at.
accounts and require settlements at
stated periods and for the teachers
to settle with the pupil-solicitors
daily. The responsible parties
would have to make good any loss
es. The plan will work successfully
If the proper safeguards are thrown
around it, and the banks or other
sales agents will be glad to cooper
ate.

STOP THE FARM LEAKS

Every one knows what happens
when water is put into a barrel that
has stood empty in the sun for
while. The water leaks out between
the slaves. Many manufacturers
hire men to study out ways of stop
ping such leaks in their business. It
is said that a well-known automo-
bile company offers small fortune
to any man who will save a few
cents in the cost Of building promi-
nent parts Of an auto. Just so in
farming The mosh successful
farmer is the one who has the best
organized business, which is best
adapted to conditions, and has the
fewest "leaks" Every dairy farm

CHOICE MEAT FROM A BACK.
YARD LOFT.

For food purposes pigeons are U.s.
ually classed with poultry. Cultur-
| ally they are in class by them
selves, producing meat only, produc-
ing it very quickly, and under con-
ditions that do not admit of growing
any other creature used for food.
While the ideal arrangement for
pigeons is to have their house on the
ground, and small covered yard
called fly with it
pigeon keeping may be carried on
extensively in upper rooms, or lofts,
with or without an open-air fly.
Many flocks Of pigeons are kept in
large cities in quarters provided for
them in the lofts or on the roofs of
buildings used for mercantile and
manufacturing purposes.
Male Helps Hatch Eggs.
A space six feet square, and high
enough for the attendant to stand
erect, will accommodate eight to ten
pairs Of pigeons for SQUAD breeding.
The birds mate and begin breeding
when six to seven months old. Two
eggs are laid by the hen. Then the
male shares with her the duty of in
cubation. The young hatch in about
II days. At four weeks old average
-ood squads Will weigh about three
quarters CT pound each. Some of
the larger ones will weigh over a
pound &. that age.
Get Good Pigeon Stock; Homer
A Popular Variety.
Good breeding stock is necessary
to succeed in pigeon-raising. It is
advisable to buy pigeons from reli-
able breeders-those who guarantee
their stock. Many failures in squab-
raising have been due to poor stock
old pigeons past their period Of
usefulness, or perhaps too many
male birds. There are a great many
varieties Of pigeons, but only a few
are used in squab-raising. The Ho-
mer is generally considered the most
popular variety. The United States
Department Of Agriculture has a
publication on squab-raising, Farm
ers' Bulletin 684, which will aid the
beginner.
A good pair Of breeders will pro-
duce six or seven more pairs Of
squads a year. As many as eleven
pairs Of squads have been produced
by one pair in a year. When pro-
duction is high the female lays and
begins incubation while she has
young still in the nest, leaving the
care Of them to her mate.
Make Farm Flocks Pay.
Raising squads has greatly increas-
ed in cities in recent years. On

getsion for your Town?
Stations for the sale Of skim milk
are soon to be established in Hart
ford, Connecticut, as part of the
work outlined by the urban home
demonstration agent employed by
the State Agricultural College, CO.
operating with the Department of
Agriculture. The direct object of

these stations will be to supply q
cheap and nourishing food and to
demonstrate the value of skim milk
as tissue-building food.
In the past many dealers have
been opposed to the sale Of skim
milk on the routes, fearing that it
would curtail the consumption of
whole milk. It is believed, however,
that many people, if they had an
opportunity, would use skim milk
for cooking and drinking, in addi-
tion to their customary quantity of
whole milk. Skim milk sold in this
way should be pasteurized
and handled as carefully as market
milk. It should also be labeled con-
spicuously to comply with local re-
quirements, so that the consumer
may be fully informed as to its true
character.
Skim milk contains all the food el-
ements Of whole milk except the
fat. It has a little more protein
than whole milk, but because of the
deficiency in fat, does not supply so
much energy. When per cent
whole milk-an average butterfat
content Of market milk-sells at 12
cents quart, skim milk is worth
12.4 cents quart as a source of
protein. In energy value, skim
milk is worth 63 cents a quart
when per cent whole milk is SELL
ing for IL cents.
