KEEP BULLETS BUSY.

Train the pullets to work when
they are young so they will know
how when they begin to lay. This
is the advice of w. D. Buchanan,
Mr.. Buchanan lays down few
simple rules in the training of
young pullets.
Never leave feed lying around
where they can get it without
working. If it is placed on the
ground, broadcast the grain thin.
Make them work from morning to
night. Exercise builds muscle and
a chicken without muscle is of
little use.
If the chickens have plenty of
range, they will exercise of their
own accord, provided they are not
overfed. Where they are fed in
house or small lot, it is best to
feed in a clean straw litter. The
litter should be an inch deep when
the chicks are a week old, two or
three inches deep when they are
a month old and four inches deep
when four months old or older.
Keep grit, charcoal and clean wa
ter or milk before them all the
time. Keep mash before them aft
er the fifth day. If this mash is too
rich the birds will eat enough with
out working. 1t is best to feed a
mash so bulky that they cannot
eat enough to satisfy.
A good mash is composed of
20 pounds of bran.4 pounds of
bone meal 3 pounds sand and 2
pounds charcoal, mixed carefully
with 3 ounces of fine table salt.
Where the chicks gun at large
they get plenty of bugs, or if they
are housed and have all the milk
they want to drink, the above
mash fed with grain will be almost
a balanced ration.
The grain or chick starter fed
to the young stock, should be
composed of 2 pounds steel cut
wheat, | pound steel cut corn and
l pound steel cut oats. Feed in
connection with plenty of green
feed, fresh air and exercisee.

Drying Fruit.

With sugar high and fruit plen,
tiful in most parts of the state,
drying has a real place in the
homework for the summer. To in
sure best results ia drying fruits,
the hot syrup treatment should
be used.
Dipping in thin boiling syrup
for from ten seconds to two min
utes does much toward holding
the color and flavor and improv-
ing the appearance of most fruits.
Where Karo is used to make the
syrup take one part of Karo to
three parts of water. In using su-
gar take one part sugar to three
or four parts of water.
Fruits such as apples, should be
sliced and dipped as soon
as possible for something like a
minute in the boiling thin syrup,
and dried. A ten to twenty second
dip is sufficient for cherries that
have been seeded. The purpose of
the syrup is to prevent oxidation.

And though the trained animal
numbers and the immense horse
show We're circuses in themselves
while touring Europe, they are
not offered as separate attractions
by the Ringing Brothers and Bar
nun and Bailey combined shows.
Instead all are on one gigantic
program. Everything is in one
mammoth main tent. One ticket
admits to all these and to the ire
mendous double menagerie. There
are more than a thousand animals
in the zoo Of this circus and these
include entire families of hippo
potami and giraffes. Another re
markable geological feature is an
armored rhinocerous, the only one
known to exist, and alone worth
$4,000.

dry aprlcots is to split, seed, syrup
treat until hot thru and then dry
in a medium high temperature.
Cherries = A fine product of
superior flavor may be obtained
by seeding, syrup-treating for ten
seconds and drying at a medium
high temperature. Care must be
exercised to lower the temper
allure as the drying proceeds, as
the sugar in the cherry caramel
ICES readily when the cherry be-
comes more nearly dry. The time
of drying may be decreased by
splitting the cherry in half.
Peaches-Scald, cold dip, re
move the skins, split, remove the
seed, treat with thin hot syrup at
very nearly boiling point until the
peach is hot thru. Begin the dry
ing process at a very high temper
ature in the artificial heat dryers.
Gradually lower to $50 degrees at
the end of three or four hours.
Continue drying until the peach
is in a leathery stage.
Berries - Use hot syrup treat
ment for a few seconds only and

John and PrisciIla's
Last Home Is Empty

Duxbury, Mass.-The old home of
John Alden at Plymouth Is empty. 1t
is said this is the first time since its
erection in 1853 that the house has not
sheltered some of the Alden family.
The house is not the new habita
ton" to which Alden took Priscilla
Mullens after their wedding in 1923, at
which Capt. Miles Standish so gallant
ly accepted his defeat as a lover.
After Alden moved across the bay
still within sight Of the homes of his
comrades of 1920 he built a house on
a site a few hundred yards south Of
the present dwelling, and about thirty
years after his marriage he erected
the one now standing, probably in
order to have more room for his large
family.
Nevertheless, Longfellow's descrip-
ton of the first house Alden built for
his bride fits the present one in some
particulars:
Solid, substantial. OF timber rough.
hewn from the frs of the forest
Wooden barred was the door and the
roof was covered with PUSHES;
Latticed the windows were, and the
window panes were of paper.
Oiled to admit the light. while wind
and rain were excluded
There too, he dug a well, and around
1t planted an orchard;
Still may be seen to this day some
trace Of the well and the orchard.

trees that have been green with To-
liage begin to show the turning leaf.
Red, brown and yellow with tints OF
bronze appear and, for time. are
very beautiful to behold. Then they
fall and still present a beautiful APP
pearance on the ground. Then the leaf
withers and turns into what we know
as leaf-mold. Later this serves as a
fertilizer and the same substance APP
pears in the form Of new leaves when
gentle spring induces the trees to put
on a new dress. Thus the tree pro-
vldes a part of the sustenance it re-
quires for its growth by what it dis
cards.
New and fresh green leaves spring
from old and unsightly ones. So our
good deeds may be stimulated and pro-
noted through our experiences. The
mistakes of the past may be buried
and from them may come the courage
and ability to perform worthy acts
and 10 order our lives Alright. This is
what the poet meant when he urged
that "AIen rise on stepping stones OF
their dead selves to higher things" We
use our mistakes as the rounds of the
ladder whereby we mount upward. 1t
is quite possible, however. for our mis-
takes to keep US down. We may have
hundreds of rounds of ladder, but,
if they are not in their places, they
avail US nothing in climbing. Only
those rounds that are fixed firmly in
their proper places enable us to reach
higher attitudes.
Here is a choice thought from J. G.
Holland bearing upon this very mat
ter:
Heaven is not reached at single

skies,
And we mount to its summit round by

Turn over new leaf? BY all
meanst But use what has gone before
in order that what comes afterward
may be an Improvement over the old
order of things. Wherever you have
erred in the past, resolve to avoid such
errors in the future. Make your reso-
lutions; make many Of them-that you
fail to keep them all should not deter
you in your ambition to make improve

helpful. The habit of trying to cor.
