YOUNG FOWLS BEST LAYERS
Seldom Pays to Keep Hens for lay
ing After They Are Past Two
Years Of Age.

There are people who have the
right variety of fowls, who house and
feed them properly, and yet who ram
not obtain eggs early in the winter
because their fowls are too old. 1t
is seldom that 1t pays TO keep hens
for laying after they are two and a
balf years old: not that they will
not give a profit, but because younger
fowls will give a greater profit.

The American public demands tur-
key for Thanksgiving, and gets It
usually if it is humanity possible. On
no other festival of the year do the
people of this country feel it neces-
sary to have any one kind of meat,
but Thanksgiving without turkey Is
like Hamlet without the ghost to most
Americans. Many serve turkey at
Christmas and New Years also, but
after the holiday season is past the
demand for turkeys is usually small.
This makes the marketing season for
turkeys very short, running as it does
from the middle of November to the
latter part of December.
In sections where turkeys are grown
in large numbers, as In Texas, dress
ing plants have been built by poultry

WHY THE "KEYST0NE STATE"
TWO Explanations for Appellation of
Which All PennsyIvanians Are
Extremely Proud.

There have been several theories adj
the appellation 'Keystone State" was
first applied to Pennsylvania. The one
most generally accepted, and most
dear to Pennsylvanians, is that Penn
sylyania decided the great issue of
American independence. This oc-
Cured at the meeting of the Cont
mental congress at Philadelphia, July
4, 1776, when the vote of adopting the
Declaration of Independence was taken
by the states. OF the thirteen orig
inal states, six had already voted in
the affirmative and six in the negative,
but when the delegation from Penn
the deciding vote in the affirmative.
Thus Pennsylvania by her vote decided
the great issue, and was named the
"Keystone State"
Another reason advanced is, that in
constructing bridge between Penn
sylvania avenue and Georgetown,
Washington, d. c., single arch was
erected of stones left from building
the walls of the capitol. On the 13
"vaussoirs," or arch-stones, the names
of the 13 states We're engraved. The
name of Pennsylvania fell in the key
stone of the arch, and the state be-
came still more widely known as the
keystone State"

Swiss Lakes Disqorqe Relics.

The recent drought in Switzerland
has lowered the lakes so much that
archaeologists are having great OPP
portunity to examine the old lacuS
trine or pile dwellings which date back
to the stone age. Old pottery is be-
ing discovered in two lake dwellings
revealed on the shores of Lake Neu-
chatel, says cabiegram 10 the New
York Times, and hundreds of piles in
perfect preservation and on which
these dwellings, originally rested are
now clearly visible. Many persons
have volunteered help for eXcavating
the remains. of these ancient dwellings,
which, according to Doctor Kellerchief,
the Swiss authority on the subject,
ceased to be inhabited about the first
century of the Christian era. Numer-
our boats, which apparently were
wrecked and sunk in past times, are
now visible.

The Hero and the

Gray. 81 believe I'll take the little
old car out again and see if | can't

stopped open-mouthed, as a big car
shot around a curve without warning,
and swept on toward the hotel he had
just left. The car seemed to be full
of women in summary frocks and
hats, but its speed prevented recogni-
ton.
As it flew past him something white
and filmy floated out behind, lowered
over Perry's blond head and then set
tied like great white moth over his
face. He was conscious of fragrance
of flower gardens and perfumes OF
Araby, as he detached the hat from
his face and surveyed the lovely Gre
alton of georgette crepe and tiny
flowers. "Forget-me-notsl Lo, the
poor hero-and enter the hat. Heigh

reared itself on the hind axles and
run over it's owner in sheer disgust.
Perry raced down the mountain

how his blues vanished forever that
day. But it was later in the day.
He managed to be on time for

Wrote His News in Verse.

The most amusing and original news
paper ever printed was the Muse
Historique' of Jacques Loret, which
for fifteen years from 1850 to 1865,
was issued weekly in Paris. 1t was
written entirely in rhyme, but under
took to cover all the local news of the
week, every class of subjects being
is said to have been very good.
Loret was his own reporter, going
about the city for news and welcomed,
although doubtless sometimes feared,
by all classes of society. His pro-
longed and excellent performance has
been pronounced unique in the history
of journalism.
