The time was when the public lr general looked upon advertising a: very closely akin to graft, and mam advertisers, such as retail merchants looked upon the publisher who of fered space for sale as an indlvidua whose principal business was taking money for nothing. To-day, however, the same busl ness men, the same merchants, an taking an entirely different view ol advertising and appreciate the facl that space in the local newspapei can be made an asset In their bus! ness Just the same as space In the!< window or space in their store. Many publishers, too, are thor pughly alert to the change In sent! ment, and incidentally the chaug; In policy, of many merchants. Foi Instance, in Elkhorn, Wisconsin there is a publisher, F. H. Fames bj name, who publishes a splendid news paper, the Elkhorn Independent. Mr Earaes has built up an exceptionallj ^trong newspaper and valuable prop P?rty, and he has accomplished large ly what he has through his policy of co-operating with the other busi hes8 interests of his town and com munity. There are many, many merchant! that feel they are unable to prepare the right kind of advertising copy ARRANGING NESTS FOR HENS Fowls Do Their Best When Confinec In Slightly Darkened Places? Keep the Little Chicks Warm. Sitting hens do best when conttnei to slightly darkened nests at hatching time and not disturbed unless the] step on or pick their chickens whei hatching- In the latter case the chick ens may be removed as soon as dry in a basket lined with flannel oi some other warm material, and kepi near a tire until all the eggs ar< hatched. In place of this, the eggi may be removed and placed under s quieter hen whose eggs are hatching at the same time. An incubator may also be used tc keep the earliest hatched chickent warm, in case they are removed from the nest. If the eggs hatch unevenly those which are slow in hatching ma> be placed under other hens, as hent often get restless after a part of th< chickens a*e out, allowing the re malning eggs to become cooled at ttu very time when steady heat is neces sary. It is necessary to remove the agg shells and any eggs which have not hatched as soon as the hatching Is over. Hens aro fed as soon as pos Sible after the eggs are hatched, at feeding tends to keep them quiet; otherwise hens will leave the nest. CARE OF STRAWBERRY PLAN!

ROTATION OK CROPS TO PRKVRNT IMSKAS "Rotation of crops is as Importar in growing vegetaoles as in growin field crops, and the same principlf can be applied. Crop rotation Is in portant in checking diseases and it sects and in keeping the soil in goo condition. Where diseases are ver severe, the same crop should not li planted continuously on the sain area. Rotation of crops is one < the safeguards against soil infei tion. Land upon which a disease crop has been grown should not t used for the same or a closely n lated crops oftener than once in thrc years. It is usually advisable to r< i.i crop. I a ?.:i!i a '.:y thai foliar (such as cabbage, kale, spinach, an mustard) follow root crops (Iris potatoes, beets, parsnips, carrot etc.) or those grown for fruits (t< ma toes, peppers, melons, etc.) Tli mii be accomplished in a measui by changing the location of crops i the planting plan or by reversln the plan front year to year."
