well, she doesn't look unhappy tonight"
NO." admitted his sister with
little jerk Of her firm chin-for what
was the use Of trying TO show man
who could not see? "She does not,
but looks are no everything"
AS she walked away from him, Rob
had to admit to himself that Aggy had
brains as well as presence and was
a fine woman for her age.
Roberta saw her aunt bearing down
upon her now, and for one moment
she thought she was coming to protest
about the dance.
But Lady Sandison had no such
idea. Roberta" she said, and for all
her presence she was little nervous
one never knew just how Roberta
would receive suggestion-"do you
think you could start them toward the
supper room after the next dancer"
Easiest thing you know, Aunt
Aggy," Roberta told her gaily.
She turned to Roger, who had been
pursuing her. Roger. tell the leader
that the intermission for supper comes
after the next dance"
"Then don't let anybody cut in on
US until we get there" said Roger.

Unkind Nature

Nature has no kindness, no hospi
tally, during rain. In the fiercest
heat of sunny days she retains a Sc
cret mercy and welcomes the wayfarer
TO shady hooks of the woods whi<her
the sun cannot penetrate. But she
provides no shelter against her storms.
1t makes US shiver to think of those
deep outrageous recesses, those over
shadowing banks where we found such
enjoyment during the sultry after
Moons. Not twig of foliage there
but would dash a little shower into
our faces. In such spells Of
weather-and it is to be supposed such
weather came-Eve's bower In Para
disc must have been but a cherries

Night Light Will Pay

not come from eating during the
night, but more from the chicks

POULTRY
FATS
RAISING TURKEYS
is NOT GAMBLING
Study Being Made of Para
sites and Diseases.

With no poker game handy the
farmer who was overtaken by a spasm
of the gambling fever has always been
able to get his excitement by raising
turkeys. Now the United States De-
partment of Agriculture is trying TO
spoil the sport by removing from Ii
the element of greatest uncertainty
parasites and parasitic diseases The
parasites have been the factors re-
sponsible for the greatest losses in the
turkey flock and for making turkey
raising side issue and gamble for
the average farmer or poultryman-
A foundation flock of turkeys raised
for experimental purposes has been
established at one of the federal ex-
pertinent stations in Montana, and the
specialist in charge has devoted all
his time to the investigation of par
asitic disease in the flock. He will
do other work later however.
The flock was established by arti-
ficially incubating the eggs. and brood
ing the pouits in special brooder
houses with clean yards until they
were eight weeks old. These precau-
tons were taken in order to prevent
infestations by parasites introduced
by adult turkeys. When large enough
to range the poults were given large
fenced lots and shelters.
Artificial brooding has been Of par
ticular value in preventing losses from
blackhead disease which at one time
threatened to destroy the turkey in
dustry." says the specialist in charge
Of the flock. prevention OF this dis
ease calls for rearing the young tur-
keys on clean ground and away from
chickens and other turkeys"

Poultry Facts

Place the egg on its side-not on
end.
Poultry need direct sunlight and
ventilation to keep in the best health.
The hens should be laying an aver
age Of ten eggs each during Deem
Der.
When chicks are crowded in the
house respiratory diseases. such as
cold and roup. are more likely to &C.
cur.
Adding cod liver oil to the poultry
ration will help TO maintain the health
of the flock and also to improve the
texture of egg shells.
Clean litter on the floor. plus clean
material in the nests, will eliminate
most of the dirty eggs In some cases,
additional nests will be required.

try raising operations last year. or IL
such a plot cannot be provided, turn
under the surface soil.
To clean contaminated soil In a
poultry yard the first best thing to do
is to disinfect the surface.
There should be enough hopper
space to give each bird a chance to
eat whenever she is hungry.
No factor in brooding chicks or
poults is more important than an even
and correct temperature. For that
reason the selection of a good colony
brooder stove and its careful atten-
ton is well worth the money ard time
involved.

FERGUS BASTILE
TO LOSE CHARMS
PRISONERS CONVICTED OF MINOR
CRIMES MUST WORK ON
COUNTY FARM

Fergus county commissioners in
resolutions adopted recently definite
ly stated that In the future Offend
ers incarcerated in the county jail
for offenses ranging from assault to
drunk and disorderly will work eight
hour shifts at the county farm dur
ing each day of their Jail sentence.
Recently three offenders of Indian
lineage were given 40 days each In the
county Jail. The day following their
sentence wives of two of the prisoners
appeared before the county commits
sioners and requested help, pointing
out that the offenders had neglected
to fill either the coal bin or the fam
lily larder before perpetrating the minor
crime that resulted in their sentence.
The two wives definitely proved that
unless help a given them they and
their children would go hungry. The
board of county commissioners assured
them of assistance but believed that
the ends of justice would better be
served if the sentenced husbands as
sisted indirectly in the providing OF
such provisions and coal. Therefore
the adoption of resolutions authorizing
work by prisoners on the county farm
The board believes that work during
Jail sentences will prove a powerful
deterrent to the commission Of minor
crimes. Claude White, superintendent
of the county farm, has been appointed
special deputy sheriff.
