of cracked corn with one part Cf
wheat, or equal parts Of cracked corn,
wheat and oats in one hopper, and
the dry mash in another. The beef
scrap may be left out of the dry mash
and fed in a separate hopper so that
the chickens can eat all of this feed
they desire If the beef scrap is to
be fed separately it is advisable TO
wait until the chicks are 10 days old,
the poultry division of the United
States department of agriculture adj
vises, although many poultrymen put
the beef scrap before the young chick
ems at the start without bad results.
Chickens confined to small yards
should always be supplied with green
feed. Fine charcoal, grit and oyster
shell should be kept before the chick
ems at all times, and cracked or ground
bone may be fed where the chickens
are kept in small, bare yards, but the
latter feed is not necessary for chick
ems that have a good range.

NOT so VERY EXPENSIVE

Home canning of utmost import
ance during the war - will be just as
important according 70 present in
dications as they are viewed by the
department Of agriculture. The short
age of labor on the farms makes IL
high prices for the commodities that
will be canned later in the season. La
Dor in the canning factories is expens-
i've and difficult to obtain. Everything
from cans to carriage cost, has in
creased in price, and transportation
is slow and more expensive than it
was in war times. All this increase
must be paid by the ultimate consum-
er; and there is not even assurance
that there will be enough canned pro-
ducts to go round. The solution is
home canning.
That sugar is higher in price thar
it has been hitherto is advanced by
some as a reason for canning either
less fruit or nothing but vegetables,
but unless one intends to give up the
sweets altogether there seems no good
reason for not using canned fruit on
account of high-priced sugar. There
are few desserts that do not take from
one-half to one cup of sugar, and NO
dessert is more heaithful than fruit.
! It is not necessary to use such thick
sirup as was used in the days Of
! plenty. A 10 per cent sirup made of |
part sugar and 8 parts water will
make palatable any of the acid fruits.
Such fruits as apples, pineapples and
/ the like can be canned without sugar.
/ In fact ordinary glucose or corn sirup
may be substituted for sugar in max
/ ing the sirup A palatable sirup is
made by mixing u cup glucose, and
s cups of water.
1t requires about ounces of sugar
/ for a pint jar. One cup of sugar will
make 10 cups of sirup. A pound of
sugar will make 20 cups. This last
amount will be sufficient for 20 pints
/ Of canned fruit. Where the 10 per
cent sirup is used the cost of the sug.
ar to can pint jar is IL cents with
sugar at 80 cents pound 1t is not so
expensive after all.

THIS SEASON FAVORABLE

"I had eighty acres seeded to sweet
it for seed this year. have been told,
when it gets about IS to 20 inches
high, to NOW it for hay or leave it
lay on the ground. What is your ad-
and as to leaving the first cutting
for fertilizer or hay?"-S. L., Milledge-
vile, Ill.
Reply by DR.. A. N. Hume, State col
lege agronomist: IF the sweet clover
of which you speak is growing nicely
at the present time, it is altogether
probable that you can clip it back
either for hay or leave the fertility
on the ground and still get cutting
Of seed the present season. This has
been a season of ample rainfall and
growth of sweet clover is likely to be
especially favorable from now on. Of
course. the question Of whether you
will cut the first growth for hay or
leave it on the ground will be a ques-
ton of farm management, and will
depend in large part on whether you
will be needing the hay.
"In seasons of very limited rainfall
ii is true sweet clover will not make
second growth enough to warrant cut
ting for seed but it is not likely that
such a consideration will prevail in
your locality the present year"

that time" he says, "it makes the
best quality of hay. If cut later, the
lower leaves begin to drop and are
lost and the stems are woody and are
not rcliShed so we'll by stock.
"A better quality of hay can be
made if alfalfa is cured in the shade,
but most farmers prefer to make hay
while the sun shines. Keep in mind
the fact that the leaves contain the
greater part of food value in the hay,
and adopt a haymaking plan that will
save the leaves. One way that is very
successful is rake the hay. immedi-
ately after moving, with a side de-
livery rake, throwing two swaths to
gether. This keeps part of the plants
in the shade and prevents the leaves
from willing out of the stems.
The real secret of making alfalfa
hay is to get the water out of the
stems. If the leaves wilt first, the
stems must be cured by a drying up
process but if the leaves can be kept
from willing until they have helped
reduce the water in the stems, the
hay cures much quicker and the
leaves can be saved.
After the windrow has dried a few
hours it should be turned, care being
taken simply to invert it. This can
be repeated if need be until the hay is
fully cured, when it can be taken in
with loader or sweep rake and put
this way very little hand labor is re-
Quired.
"If side delivery rake is not avail
able, the hay should be cured in small
windrows, or better still, put up in
cocks and covered and left to stand
for few days"

United States made Monticello his
chief objective point. He must see
"the Sage" 1t cost the Sage money.
Of course.
The chambers occupied by Mr.. and
Mrs. Jefferson are most interesting.
Jefferson. a radical In all things. n
progressive in an age that was rot
particularly progressive, had ideas Of
his own with regard to household fur
niture. Heretofore people had slept In
massive, cumbersome beds, with gent
posts or frames at the foot and head.
Jefferson changed this, for him self
and wife. He built two rooms, con-
nected by wide archway In this
archway he placed the Jeffersonian
bed, which was merely large couch
OF simple design, minus the uuneces-
sary foot and head work. The bed
closed UP the archway, there being no
other communication between the two
rooms. In one Of the chambers Mrs
Jefferson made her boudoir. In the
other Thomas Jefferson studied and
wrote. When Mrs. Jefferson was ready
to retire she disrobed in her boudoir
and climbed into the bed from her
side. When Mr. Jefferson sought the
refreshment Of Morpheus he dsrobed
In his study and climbed into the bed
from his side. 1t was all very handy.
Jefferson's Monument
The epitaph on the original monu-
ment over JefferSon's grave was writ.
ten by Jefferson himself. 1t reads:
Here was buried Thomas Jefferson,
author Of the Declaration of Inde-
pendence, Of the Statute Of Virginia
for Religious Freedom, and Father of
the University Of Virginia"
1t thus appears that Jefferson was
more proud Of these three achieve
ments than Of being president Of the
United States, as he does not even
mention the latter distinction.
From a hilltop near Monticello one
may see the birthplaces of three men
whose work and wisdom added to the
United States nearly one-half Of its
present territory on this continent.
These men were Jefferson George
Rogers Clark and Meriwether Lewis.
Through the efforts of Clark the states
Of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin
and part of Michigan were added to
our domain. Meriwether Lewis, with
a younger brother of George Rogers
Clark, was sent by Jefferson on the IA
nous trip of exploration and discov-
cry which, many years later, resulted
in giving Uncle Sam title to the Pa
ciiC Northwest.

Despotisn1
BY ROBERTUS LOVE.

The Father of His Country was
George Washington, but the Father Of
the Fourth OF July was Thomas Jeffer-
Of Independence, which was adopted
and signed on the fourth day Of July,
1776. Forever thereafter that day
was and will be -the Glorious Fourth"
The Declaration Of Independence was
g special plea for the rights Of the in-
dividual., The whole life Of Thomas
Jefferson was protest against the
oldtime tyranny which sought to limit
the development and action Of indi-
vidual man. Jefferson loved liberty
and despised despotism. He was the
principal pioneer Of democracy In all
the world. On this account all that
be did and said and wrote, his man
ner Of living and working, his home
and his surroundings, are Of interest
TO the world.
SO far as real human interest goes,
the home Of Jefferson was and Is more
fruitful Of entertaining anecdote and
reminiscence than the home of Wash
ington. Both homes are In Virginia.
Jefferson's home, which he called Mon
ticello divided with Mount Vernon the
reverence and homage Of Americans
who have inherited the priceless bless
ings Of Republican government for
which Washington fought with his
sword and Jefferson with his pen.

WHEN TO CULTIVATE CORN

The best answer to the question Of
how frequently corn should be cult-
waited, say specialists of the United
States department of agriculture, is
that 1t should be cultivated often
enough to keep down weeds and to
maintain constantly loose soil mulch
till the corn has attained it's growth.
To this end greater number of cul-
tivations will be necessary when rains
at intervals of about a week cause
the surface soil to run together and
crust. This crust must be broken and
the soil mulch restored, or excessive
run-off and evaporation will soon rob
the soil Of its moisture.
Promptness in restoring the soil
mulch after rain is important. With
double cultivators widened and by
driving astride each alternate row, the
mulch is restored in half the time nee.
essary to drive astride of every row.

At Monticello Jefferson lived nearly
sixty years. Within a stones throw
he spent his entire life, for he was
born on the estate, and though he was
absent for several years in France
as American minister. and for eight
years as president Of the United
States, and also In the occupancy Of
other Offices. that was always his home.
He loved It above all other spots on
earth, from the cradle to the grave
There was rocked his cradle and there
his grave was made. when after S3
years Of labor for the rights Of man
he died on the Fourth Of July, exactly
so years after the signing Of the Dec
laration Of Independence 1t was CIV
en- to him to experience half q CEN
tury Of the fruits Of his own efforts
toward q more equitable form Of gov
ernment, something new to human So
ciety.
History Of Monticello.
In 1859 Jefferson began the con-
struction OF his mansion on the noun
tain above Charlottesville. On New
Years day Of 1872 he HOk thither his
bride, the beautiful young Widow
Shelton, whose husband Bathurst
Shelton, had died when she was In her
nineteenth year, leaving her a consid-
erable fortune. She was about twen-
ty-three when Jefferson married her.
Mrs. Jefferson was q singularly beau
tiful woman, with auburn hair to
match the red locks Of her famous
husband. She lived only about ten
years after her second marriage JEFF
ferson never took another wife. His
daughter was the mistress of Month
cello and likewise the mistress OF the
Executive Mansion when Jefferson
was president CT the United States.
Jefferson survived his wife A years.
For the last so years of his life JEFF
ferson was hopelessly insolvent From
time to time his precious estate and
home were In imminent danger of being
sold over his head. His debts were
due to various causes. For one thing,
he put his name on notes for friends
and was held responsible for large
sums. Then he was an extravagant
entertainer. His house was perhaps
the most cOmmodious and manorlike in
America. He was famous In two con-
tinents. Every person of distinction
