A Matrimonial Psalm.

Tell me not in idle jingle
Marriage IS an empty dream.
For the man is dead that's single
And things are not as they seem
Life is real, life is earnest,
Single blessedness hb;
Man thou art. to man returneth.
Hath not been spoken Of the rib.
Not enjoyment and not sorrow
Is our destined end or way.
But to act, that each tomorrow
Find us nearer marriage day.
Life is short and youth is fecting
And our hearts though light and gay
Still like pleasant drums ere beating
Wedding marches all the way.
In the worlds broad field of battle.
In the bivouae Of life.
BE not like dumb, driven cattle.
BE a hero and get wife.
Lives Of married folks remind us
We can make our lives as well.
And departing leave behind us
Such examples as shall tell
Such examples that another.
Wasting life in idle sport.

With heart on triumph set.
Still contriying. still pursuing.

EACH BREED HAS ITS PLACE
All Have Been Made and Developed on
General Principle OF Practical
Quality and Value.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment OF Agriculture)
To the novice in poultry keeping II
often appears that there Is no real
necessity for so many breeds and va
rteties as have been standardized In
America. Further acquaintance with
them, however, shows that although
color differences are In most cases
made merely to please the eyes of
persons having different preferences
for color, the differences In shape and
size which make breed character have
been developed with n view to adapting
each TO particular uses or particular
conditions.
Leavlng out Of consideration the
breeds kept as novelties, most of which
originated before industrial progress
created n large demand for poultry
products, all the standard American
breeds of fowls have been made and
developed on the general principle OF
practical quality. the foundation of
breed, character and value.
In harmony with this principle the
common classification Of breeds nc.
cording to their place in the general
scheme of poultry production divides
them into three principal classes, name
~. laying breeds. meat breeds that are
not as ready and persistent egg pro-
ducers rs the laying breeds, and not as
menty and ms easy to fatten as the
meat breeds, yet combine In one indi.
vidual fowl very good laying capacity
with very good table quality.
The Leghorn, Mlnorca, Andaluslan,
Ancona and Campine are w~ell-knowr
breeds of the laying class; the Brah.
ma. Dorklng, and Cornish Of the meat
class; II Plymouth Rock, Wyandotte,
Rhode Island Red and Orpington OF
the general purpose class.

COMMENTED W ARE BEST
Easier to Keep Hens Healthy and TO
Reproduce Stock Under Colony
House System.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment OF Agriculture,)
A contcnted hen Is n profitable pos
session, and contentment with the hen
Is commensurate with the comfort OF
her home. Hence henhouse building
should receive more than passing no.
tlce from n who would profitably
produce poultry.
Hens do not do we'll in apartments ;
ever semidetached houses are not de-
slrable: separated COLONY houses,
each with IT'S W yard, give best all-
around satisfaction.
1t Is easier to keep the birds healthy
and to reproduce the stock under the
colony system II the birds are allowed
free range. Breeding stock, and espe-
cially growing chickens, should have
an abundant range, while hens used
solely fer the production Of market
Egg may be kept on a very small area.
