This may not sound much o u

women more careful than men. but

The lily order or family OF plant
is a very large one. There are oy-
er 1877 genera and over 1000 well
known species and include many
plans from the humble asparagus
up to the gorgeous iilium auratum
or golden banded lily Of Japan.
The Easter lilyis a form of lili-
um longiflorum, a variety that can
be readily forced in high temper

years. This climate and soil is es-
pecially adapted to the growth of

to be good money in their eultiya-
ton for the forcing trade.

GOOD BROODER is
QUITE IMPORTANT

One of the most necessary appli-
ances in the poultry business is a good
brooder so the chicks can be cared for
and raised successfully regardless OF
weather conditions.
According to Director 7. w. holland
of the Missouri state poultry expert
ment station, Mountain Grove, there
Is no better method of brooding chicks
than the coal-burnlng brooder stove,
although there are as many ways of
brooding chicks as there are bills of
fare" II is best to procure stove of
500-ehick capacity and brood $50
chicks with It. This gives about the
right number for the stove and the
most successful number to place in
one group.
A house, 10 by 10 feet, high enough
to allow the attendant to work around
without stopping, is preferred. The
regular "fool-proof colony house"
makes a good brooder house. Most
any building that is the right size will
do. We prefer that the upper sash OF
the two windows In the front of the
house be replaced by unbleached mus
lin tackled on frames which are made
to fiji the openings. These frames
should be hinged at the top, In this
way we can supply plenty of fresh air
without drafts even during the coolest
weather and can fasten them open on
warm days II should be remembered
that it is Just as important to keep
the brOoder house of medium tempera-
ture as it Is to furnish plenty of heat
Immediately about the stove.
The brooder house should be foored.
1t should he placed on a concrete
foundation to prevent rats hsrborlng
under the floor. II portable houses
with double floors are used, one-inch
mesh wire should be stretched about
the house to exclude chicks and rats
from the space under the floor. If the
house is six or eight inches above the
ground this wire may be removed
when the chicks are several weeks old.
II is a good plan to run the brooder
stove day or two before placing the

More Cigarettes
But Less Gasoline

More cigarettes were smoked in
North Dakota during June, 1926, than
during the same month last year but
less gasoline was consumed than for
the corresponding month q year ago.
according to statistics compiled by
state Treasurer G. A. Fisher.
In June. 1925, the figures show,
the state collected $26,978.G5 from the
sale Of cigarette tax stamps while In
June. 1926. the receipts were only
$780, Sc.
Gasoline taxes collected last month
t0taled $s5,5O7.Cl while for the same
month y year ago gas tax receipts
were $50,145.12.
ID Is possible. however, Fisher
said, that the figures on gasoline
consumption would differ materially
from these figures on taxes paid
since gas taxes are paid when the
fluid is shipped into the state and
not when It Is sold to the consumer
for immediate use.
