Making Winter Like Spring
 Causes Hens to Lay Better

@1uses Tzens 70 Lay oettcx
 On the feeding of the flock de pends to large extent not only the general health of the birds, but also the economy which promotes success
 1t is a subject, however, which should be studied with large am cunt of common sense, for there are no hard and fast rules which can be laid down as applying to every case. The price of feeds and the general environment should be considered in determining the right rations, say poultry specialists of the United States Department of Agriculture.
 For the largest profit good pro- portion of the eggs should be se- cured during the winter. If two extra eggs a week can be obtained from each hen good profit will be made, while if the product is in- creased by only one egg a week in winter this one egg will pay for all tho feed the hen eats. To obtain this greater production not only should the fowls be young and of good laying breed, but the feeder should have full knowledge of the proper feed and it's preparation. Jei ;A The nutriment in the feed of lay ing hens serves a twofold purpose to repair waste and furnish heat to tho body and to supply the egg-mak- ing materials. As only the surplus over, what is needed for the body is available. for egg production, the proper feeds should be fed in suffi- cient quantities to induce this pro- duction. Gaip Ie f3s 70 aaJot
 q In supplying feed to fowls there are three kinds I of constituents which should be present in certain fairly well-fixed proportions if the desired results are to be obtained most economically.2ng These consti-' tuents are mineral, nitrogenous, and carbonaceous, all which are con- tained in corn, wheat, oats, and barley, but not in the right propor- tions to give the geratest egg yield. In addition some animal feed and green feed should be supplied. aoi'se [ In feeding poultry valuable les son may be learned from nature. In spring the production of eggs on the farm is an easy matter. Fowls at liberty to roam find an abundance of green and animal feel on their range, which with grain furnishes 8 perfect ration for laying hens.t In addition to this they get plenty of exercise and fresh air. So far as Hes within his power, then, the feeder should aim to make the win- ter conditions springlike. noi o

Cold Retards Vaporizing
 Fuel in Gasoline Engines

Cold Retards Vaporizing
 Fuel in Gasoline Engines The most serious effect of cold l weather on gas engine operation is
 attributable to the fact that cold ,retards the vaporizing of the fuel. Gasoline as liquid will not burn; it
 must first be turned into vapor and 1 this vapor mixed with air. A thin spray of gasoline in warm air will quickly turn to vapor, but at low temperatures considerable part of such spray will remain \ liquid, hence will not make an explosive mixture. The remedy is obvious. A greater quantity of gasoline must be furnished so as to give off more vapor in order to make a mixture rich enough to be combustible, or the air must be heated so the gasoline will vaporize more readily.
 If the weather is only moderately cold, an engine can usually be start ed by injecting small quantity of gasoline (about teaspoonfuD into the cylinder, say specialists of the United States Department of Agri- culture. In very cold weather it may be necessary to apply heat. Sufficient heat can sometimes be ob- tained by pouring hot water in the cooling system. If only a littlec hot water is available it may be more ffeective if poured slowly over the intake manifold, and the carburetor as well, if the latter is covered so no water can enter it. 1t issa good plan to wrap cloths around the manifold before the water is applied. Some people use blowtorch to heat the manifold, but this is a dangerous practice. The blowtorch can be lsed, however, to heat the spark plugs after they have been removed. Before they are replacedJ prime the ,ngine. Another method of using he blowtorch effectively is to heat a ,iece of metal pipe the size of the air ntake of the rcarburetor. Then place his 80 all the air entering must pass through it. Another method, com monly used in starting 'lautomobiles in cold weather, is, to provide some very volatile fuel with which to prime it, su chas either, or Thigh test" gasoline.

Fur Bearers Consume Waste

Generally speaking, it is not wise to exterminate fur-bearing animals indiscriminately, say specialists of the Biological Survey, United States Department of Agriculture. In most cases the, smaller fur-bearing crea- lures do little damage on the farm. Often they perform a positive ser vice by ridding the orchards and fields of some of their worst pests. Unless they are found guilty of kill ing chickens or of doing some equally definite injury, it is far more profitable to spare the fur bearers until seasonal conditions will assure a full value from the pelt.

renting enough additional land to meet his needs, or renting a farm either on the share or cash basis. One's choice in the matter is usually determined by the funds available.
 If one has only small amount of capital and wishes to undertake farming as a business from which to derive his entire income, he should, in nearly all cases, begin as a renter. However, if he wihses to buy a farm on which to live, deriving 8 part of his income from other sources, then, possibly, purchasing is desirable, even if capital is limited.
 Whatvr cours ise followed, it is highly desirable that one thoroughly understand the basic principles gov erning the farm business before de- ciding some of the finer points. A disregard of these basic principles is responsible for large proportion of farm failures.
 A man may unconsciously work all his life against some economic bar rier when success would have been comparatively easy if he had se- lected a farm where the economic principle would aid him instead of working against him.

From 1000 to 2,O00 tons of to- mato seeds go to waste each year in the big pulping plants east of the Mississippi River. Investigations by the United States Department of Agriculture indicate that they can be proftably recovered and converted into an edible oil and perss cake or meal for stock feed, with gross return of more than $85,000 and a net of about S35,000. Plants would operate two months a year on to- mato seeds and might be used for grape and pumpkin seeds in addi- tion, reducing the overhead.

The introduction of new varieties by the United States De- partment of Agriculture has been largely responsible for extending the growing area ofgthe crop ont only in the north and west but in the ex- treme south.

 stso, Observe the calf at all times. IT It should appear drowsy, feverish, stlff' or sluggish, act quickly. Reduce feed at once, and the disorder may be in large measure prevented. Keep salt before the calf at all times. An abundant supply of fresh water should be available always.
 Some of the commoner ailments can be treated by following instruc- tions which are contained in various bulletins and publications of the United States Department of Agri- culture. In case of serious illness, consult a competent veterinarian at once. Do not delay.
 Tree Surgery
 The best, safest, and most econo- mical plan to prevent future exten- sive injury and decay, or to prevent the early disfiguremetn or death of the tree, is to attend to all injuries as soon as they occur, say specialists of the United States Department of Agriculture. This kind of work is comparatively simple and inexpen- sive. Tree surgery has become an established industry in all cities, and it is often profitable to employ the services of those trained in this work, but most persons can, with little preliminary practice on the simpler types of work, undertake or dinary tree repair provided they are familiar with the use of the gouge and mallet, saw, and paintbrush. A steady head and ability to climb will be necessary for work in the top of tree. A 'a

CHAPTER XIV.
A Letter From Morris,

The weather continued mild, and
Hilary's financial prospects continued
to improve. There was every likeli-
hood now of being able to carry on
through the winter Brousseau had
showed no signs Of further interior
ence with his men, and there was even
the possibility of getting out another
small load. -...
Hilary had sent Nanette home to st.
Joseph. She had promised to write to
him, but, as he had expected, he had
not heard from her. Baptiste had
thrown up his position with Dupont
and gone into the Ste. Marie limits to
trap. Marie Dupont avoided Hilary !;
he had not seen her since the day Of
their adventure.
AS for Dupont, whatever he knew,
he showed no signs. And things seemed
to settle into equilibrium, though Hill
airy was sure that a denouement was
to follow. He could only wait pa
tiently for that. No action could come
from him. He could not violate his
pledge to Marie in order to secure him
self with Madeleine.
Then came the news which stunned
Hilary out of his mental apathy. Mad
eleine was to marry Brousseau. 1t
was to be in three weeks-at Christ
mas, and the banns had been read in
church that Sunday morning for the
first time.

ing as if the news they conveyed could
on no account be delayed.
They chatter with one another and
seem to brush their gray whiskers in q
knowing sort of way while exchanging
comments. The young ones are easily
trained, are quite intelligent and most
affectionate when once their confidence
has been gained.
People who live in the sections where
prairie dogs flourish aver that If any
animals can talk to one another these
are surely the ones, for it really seems
as If one could hear them carry on
conversation. They proceed from hole
to hole, stopping for a short time to
say few words to an acquaintance,
and then, with two or three shakes of
their tails, away they go to the next
hole.
Sometimes whole family of prairie
dogs will emerge to observe the pas
sage Of a stranger, and on such occa-
sions they look for all the world like
well-to-do family Of country folk. The
mother is, of course, the central figure,
surrounded by her promising offspring,
while the father appears somewhere
in the background.

Seigneur had not given his daughter
any sign of remembrance of the events
that had transpired Immediately be-
fore his stroke, though he was in other
respects normal, save for the paraly-
sis of the left side. But as the weeks

nervous and depressed, until one night
he blurted out:

Madeleine put her arms about his

land, which had meant so much to him
oil his life, now seemed to be every

answer to indicate her willingness to

She never doubted her judgment of
Hilary. The story had been dinned
into her ears by Brousseau since Hill
ary's first visit to Ste. Marie. She had
heard it from tradesmen's wives, the
