Red Indian Recreations

The principal game among the
southeastern Indians was one similar
to lacrosse except that it was played
with two rackets instead of one. OF
wider popularity was the chunkey
game, in which stone roller or hoop
of twisted withes was propelled along
the ground and each player threw a
stick to mark what he thought would
be the hoops resting place. In anoth-
er sport men and women were oppo-
nents around pole which they en-
deavored to strike with balls above a
certain mark. The women's favorite
game was dice made of cane or bits
of wood, but this was considered be-
meath male dignity. game like shin
ny was played by the Natchez boys,
while in Virginia, and among the
Creeks young men played game SIM
liar to football with great enthusiasm.

Half of Free State
Engaged in Farming

The Free States census of prodnc-
ton shows that more than half of
its workers are engaged upon the
land. Out of total population of
2,971 ,992, there are 1,307,662 engaged
in gainful occupations, and of these
672, 129 are employed in agriculture.
The Free State has a larger proper
tion of producers to population than
Great Britain, but they fall far short
in the more remunerative industrial
occupations. OF the agricultural
workers III ,957 are women. People
employed in the professions number
55,441 and of these the majority, 49,
500, are women. This result is ar
rived at by including the nuns in the
converts and schools, of whom there
are $500. There are 3,S9S Catholic
clergy in addition to LII Christian
Brothers and other monks and 2,55S
clerical students. The census has
dissipated the idea that the public
service in the Free States is over
stated. Including the army there are
altogether 81 1888 on the public pay
sheets, or % per thousand as COM
pared with 20 per thousand in Great
Britain Women are found in all oc-
equations, except perhaps the build
ing trade. There is even woman
chimney sweep; woman manages
brewery and another distillery.

Favor Sodium Fluoride
to DESTROY Parasites

Sodium fluoride ought not be used
on setting hens just before chicks or
poults are Matched, because this chem
ieai does act as very positive irri-
tant to the lungs and breathing APP
paratus of the young birds. Blue
ointment is a much better agent to
use for controlling lice on setting
hens, but for best results it should
be used a week or ten days before the
hen is set.
1t is possible, of course, that the
breeding birds which produced the tur-
key eggs were little low in vitality,
or perhaps they were oyerfat. Gen
orally, yearling males mated to early
Matched yearling or two-year-old hens,

Changes in Feed Must
Be Done Quite Slowly

Chicks should be given the starter
for the first two or three weeks but
as they grow they can handle a feed
with more bulk to it, so mix the
starter with a good growing mash,
gradually changing the proportions
until you are feeding the growing
mash straight.
You cannot get feed too good for
young chicks as your egg yield will
depend greatly on how your pullets
are developed. The highest priced
chick feeds on the market will cost
you only about twelve cents a chick
up to eight weeks of age.
Chicks need sunshine, plenty of
range, good ventilation, both day and
night, lots of green food and clean
sanitary quarters.

Two Important Factors
in Development of Pigs

Pigs which make good gains during
the sucking period will be ready for
market earlier and usually return
greater profit. The two most impor-
tant factors which determine the de-
yelopment of pigs during the sucking
period are the ability of the sow to
produce milk and proper sanitary
measures to provide healthy con-
ditions for the pigs. Sow differ In
their ability to produce milk, and the
poor mixers will have small, unthrifty
pigs at weaving time. Pigs which
make good gains during the sucking
period have a decided advantage over
pigs raised by sows which are poor
mixers. Strong, rugged pigs are most
resistant to diseases and worm infes-
tations.

"Whiskers" on Red
Clover Due to Bug
Potato Leaf Hopper Always
Attacks Smooth Variety.

prepared by the United states Department
of Agrieulturel
lied clover in the United States
grows "whiskers' that stand straight
out from the stems of the plants, while
in England the ancestral form of the
American type is still comparatively
free from hairiness.
In attempting an explanation of the
change from the smooth TO the hairy
form, DR.. A. j. Peters of the United
States Department of Agriculture, says
it is necessary to turn to the wild red
clover to which all eloyers are related
and which shows a tendency toward
hairiness. The possibility of produc-
ing hairy plants was therefore lin the
blood of the relatively smooth type
brought from England more than 200
years ago, he says Furthermore a
few rough hairy plants may have oc-
Cured in fields seeded with the Eng
lish cloyers.
When this English clover was
brought to America it encountered
new conditions, among them little
insect not known in Europe and called
the potato leaf hopper. This insect
damages red clover, especially the
smooth forms, doing the most injury
to the second, or seed. crop, Doctor
Peters says. 1t always keeps down
the growth of the smooth plants of Eu
ropean clovers grown in the United
States so they will not seed we'll. The
hairy American type is little affected,
especially when there are smooth
plants on which the leaf hopper can
feed.
A reasonable inference, says Doctor
Pieters, may be drawn from what is
known to happen today, and from the
known facts the most reasonable an
swer TO the question of why American
clover is hairy is that the constant
attacks of the leaf hopper carried on
for more than one hundred years grad
ually eliminated the smooth form by
keeping down the production of seed.
while the rough hairy form produced
more seed than the other, and so con-
stantly increased.

Considerable Damage Is
Done Pastures by Stock

Considerable damage may be done
to pastures by turning the stock on
too early in the spring. If the pas
lures are protected until a COW can
get good mouthful, the. forage will
be much more vigorous and will stand
much closer grazing. yluch higher
yield of forage will be obtained than
where stock Is turned Ia, as soon as
growth starts. The ground is often
very soft In the early spring, and
when 10 this condition, damage may
be dsoe from tramping and packing
