farls. April S.-In this conversa-

KILL OWN CHILDREN AT BIRTH
Arioi Of Tahiti Look Upon Attempt OF
One of Their Order to Raise
Child as Sin.

Lovers of laughter, song, music,
flowers and birds, the Arioi of Tahiti
killed their own children at birth. and
looked upon the attempt of member
of their order to rear child as q
sin. While religious causes were
given for this by the leaders and, no
doubt, believed in, the real cause,
Frederick O'Brien tells in the Century,
was a natural one whereby the species,
to prevent over-population of the
South sea island, destroyed its own.
With perfect health and no enemies,
the island would soon have had hard
time finding food.
The Arioi were wandering minstrels,
actors, priests and wonder workers to
which belonged both men and women.
The natives of Tahiti who have es-
capped the blight of civilization are
living proofs that at one time the race
was one of the most beautiful in the
worlds history, while investigators
declare that arts and civilization were
brought to a high plane hundreds OF
years ago.

CORN HAS MANY ADVANTAGES
Growing Period ls During Hottest Part
Of Year When Soil Is Dry and
Thoroughly Warm.

Corn has an advantage over the
small grains. It's growing period is
during the warmest part of the year.
The soil is then dried out and warmed
thoroughly. The days are then the
longest and the sun shines the warm
est. All these things are needed by
plant to make growth. From this II
becomes plain why corn should pro-
duce more food on an acre of land
than crop that does not take advan-
tage of the whole growing season.
Corn has another advantage and
that is that its nature of growth Is
such that 1t can be cultivated. Many
may think that this is disadvantage.
The cultivation kills weeds and keeps
the moisture from escaping. While
corn uses as much moisture as grain
crop, the cultivation given 1t reduces
the amount Of moisture that evapor.
ates from the soil-in this way maxi
Ing the corn crop moisture saver.
The corn crop has the advantage of
season of growth, enabling it to pro-
duce more per acre than the grain
crops and the advantage of lending
itself to being cultivated, which saves
moisture and kills weeds, making II
both good producer and a crop to
prepare the land for other crops.

PREPARE CAPONS
FOR BEST PRICE
No Feed or Water Should Be
Given for "a Hours Before
Fowls Are Killed.
STICKING METHOD FAVORED
Some Feathers Should BE Allowed to
Remain as Distinguishing Mark
Pack In Neat Boxes OF Most
Convenient Size.

Capons selected for killing should
be confined for "a hours without feed
or water to empty their crops COM
pletely. The usual method Of killing
Is known as the sticking method. The
fowl Is hung up by the feet, the head
In the left hand, and the whole body
stretched to full length. The mouth is
forced open and the blood vessels at
the back of the throat are severed
with sharp narrow-bladed knife.
The knife Is then turned and the
point plunged through the roof Of the
mouth to point just behind and be-
tween the eyes, piercing the brain.
The muscles are relaxed and the
feathers come out easily.
Dry Picking ls Best.
Capons should always be dry picked.
as they look much better and as some
of the feathers should be left on. The
feathers of the neck and head, the tail
feathers, those short way up the
back, the feathers of the last two
joints of the wing. and those of the
leg, about one-third of the way from
knee to hip joint, should be left on.
These feathers, together with the head
of the capon, serve to distinguish 1t
from other classes Of poultry on the
market, and consequently should
never be removed. In packing, be
careful not to tear the skin. Bad
tears. poultry specialists Of the United
States department of agriculture say,
should be sewn up. Capons scalded
and picked bare bring very little, If
any, better prices than other poultry
in the same condition.
Most markets require capons to be
undrawn and the head and feet left
on. Care should be used to cleanse
the head and feet of all signs of blood
and filth.
Pack In Neat Box.
After picking, the carcasses are
hung in q cool place until the animal
heat has entirely left the body, when
they are ready to be packed. Like
other poultry they should be packed
in boxes of convenient size, holding a
dozen carcasses, or in barrels. Every
attention should be given to neatness

CUT SWEET CLOVER FOR SEED

Sweet clover is difficult to harvest
for seed because it natures its seeds
unevenly. The best time to cut it for
seed is when half the seed pods have
turned dark, and any grain or corn
harvester will bundle the clover nice
ly. The straw Is usually woody, but
stock will consume some of it. When
