Time to Take Precautions..
The sextcn of a "swell" colored
church" in Richmond was closing the
windows ono blustering Sunday morn
ing during service when Le was beck
oned to the Bide of a young negress,
the widow of a certain Thomas.
"Why Is yo' shettin' dose winders,
Mr. Jones?" she demanded in a
hoarse whisper. "De air In dis church
ls suffocatin' now!"
"It's de minister's orders," replied
tho sext-cn, obstinately. "It's a cold

The word "prestige," a3 The Dial
points out, has a dub'ot-s history, ad
mirably fitting it for its modern use
as the shibboleth of jiewspaperdom,
In the eighteenth century, "prestiges"
were defined by our great lexicograph
er, as "illusions, impostures, juggling
tricks," and we still use ihe woid
"presti(lig:tatOi'' ir: the sense of that
old meaning. If today prestige has
come to have something of the con
notation of reputation, it. still sug
gests its shady past, is acquired rath
er by smartness than by sincerity,
and "implies nothing more than suc
cessful appeal to the imagination."
One of the largest employers of
advertising brains hit the nail on the
head when he said, "Give me the
man who can hold on when others let
go; who pushes ahead when others
turn back; who stiffens up when
others weaken ; who knows no such
words as 'can't' or 'give up,' and
I will show you a man who will win.

A lot of people" who are clamoring
for their rights ought really to have

DR. TALKS OK FOOD
Pres. of Board of Health.
"What shall I eat?" is the daily in
quiry the" physician is met with. I
do not hesitate to say that in my
judgment a large percentage of dis
.ease is causpd by poorly selected and
improperly prepared food. My per
sonal experience with the fully-cooked
food, known as Grape-Nuts, enables
me to speak freely of its merits.
"From overworn I suffered several
years with malnutrition, palpitation
of the heart and loss of sleep. Last
summer I was led to experiment per
sonally with the new food, which 1
used in conjunction with good rich
cow's milk. In a sh?rt time after 1
commenced its use the disagreeable
symptoms disappeared, my heart's ac
tion became steady and normal, the
functions of the stomach were prop
erly carried out, and I again slept as
soundly and as well as in my youth.
, "I look upon Grapes-Nuts as a per
fect food, and no one can gainsay but
that lt has a most prominent place in
a rational, scientific system of feed
ing. Any one who uses this food will
soon be convinced of the soundness
of the principle upon which lt is man
ufactured and may thereby know the
tacts as to its true worth." Read

Shade For Hens.
Have a shaded yard or good sized
pea in which to keep the hens and
little chicks, and keep the weeds and
grass down short in this yard. A good
precaution for both chiggers and dis
ease is a liberal sowing of lime over
all the yard, and in the coops.-Farm
er's Home Journal.
Day Mash Food.
Experiments which have been con
ducted at the New York Cornell Sta
tion indicate that "for young fowls of
the laying varieties, kept for commer
cial egg production, the feeding of a
dry mash in a feed hopper which is
accessible at all times during the day
is to be recommended."
Pure Air and Water.
Pure air and pure water are as es
sential to the health of brood mares
and the best condition of the foals that
:hey are carrying as is pure food. Do
not forget, however, that taking a
large quantity ot ict-cold water at
one time into the stomach of a preg
nant brood mare endangers the Hie
of the foal. It is one of the most
frequent causes of abortion in the
North.-American Cultivator,
Use of the Mule.
Why not raise mules? They are
subject to fewer diseases than horses,
they mature quicker than horses, cost
less to breed and raise, there is al
ways ready demand for them at any
age, they have 'great endurance under
trying conditions and great stress of
labor; they are sure-footed, steady, not
rattle-headed, active when well bred
and well nourished and are safer than
horses-Farmer's Home Journal.
Setting Out Fruit Trees.
The farm home that does not have
a good orchard, vineyard and plenty
of small fruits is missing something
worth while. Why are there so many
farms without fruits? Surely not be
cause the family dees not care f'
fruit. The real reason ls because
the rush of farm work during the
spring there is not time to get the
ground ready and set out the trees or
plants. Then many make a half-heart
ed attempt at it, and having poor suc
cess give up the orchard to weeds and
live stock. Go at the work right. Pre
pare the ground thoroughly, and set
out the best trees and plants you can
get. Apples, plums, pears, grapes,
blackberries, raspberries and straw
berries may all be grown easily and
within a few years. Order your stock
early and when it comes don't leave it
dying around the freight depot for two
or three days. , Get it home and If
your ground ls not ready heel in the
trees until you are ready to set them
out.-Indiana Farmer.
Forcing Hogs for Killing.
Many farmers are now forcing their
pigs to make the greatest possible!
gain in weight before "killing lime."
The office of experiment stations of the
Department of Agriculture summarizes
some Wisconsin station pig feeding ex
periments covering a period of ten
years, with the following conclusions:
WV:re there is plenty of tine for ma -
turing the pigs, and it is not necessary
to secure the maximum daily gain, it
is doubtful if it pays to grind corn
for pigs. The test shows that where
quick maturity is an important item,
better results are secured from corn
meal. Pigs fed corn meal eat more
grain and make somewhat larger daily
gains. Corn meal can doubtless be
fed to good advantage in finishing off
a bunch of hogs which were first fed
shelled corn. Changing over to cora
meal .near the close of the feeding
period also furnishes a change in the
character of the ration which will be
satisfactory to the animals. When
fitting hogs to show, sale, or in high
pressure fee .ing for market, the feed
er will consider it advisable to grind
the corn, even though it is expensive
to do so.
Rape Pastures.
Although we have never grown rape
on our farm, writes a correspondent, it
bas been grown by several of the
neighboring farmers and I have paid
close attention to their success with it.
I intend to try a few acres next sea
son.
As pasture for hogs in the spring
and early part of the summer I do not
think we can find anything equal to it.
Young hogs that run on rape pasture
through the months of April, May and
June arc very healthy and heavy boned
they are in excellent condition for the
feed lot.
Rape seems to grow much better in
rather moist ground. The plant, which
slightly resembles cabbage, thrives
best in rich soil. The ground should
be in fine condition. Give the ground
several harrowings. The best time lo
sow the seed is in March or first half
of April. Sow broadcast. Rape can
endure considerable cold weather, but
not very much dry weather during the
summer, if there is a scarcity of rain
the plant becomes tough, and them is
very little growth.
Rape also makes a fine pasture for
sheep.
It is more valuable for sheep and
also steers in the fall or winter. When
raised for the purpose it is better to
drill it, in rows about 30 inches apart,
along in May. Very often two or three
crops can be cut in one season. It
makes excellent feed for lambs.
Many farmers do not know the pos
sibilities of rape, and it is not as ex
tensively grown as it should be or as
it will be in the near future-Indi
ana Farmer.
New Life on the Farm.
Prof. Bailey of .Cornell University,
New York, in a recent talk to the
farmers or that state said that schools
should be well in touch with affairs of
farm life, and further:
"I believe in the rural schools. But
like other roclal institutions in the
country they are in a state of arrested
development, as compared with the
like situations in the city. With the
telephone, the multiplied means of
transportation, the country is not go
ing io tumble headlong into the city,
but the city is going to move out into
the country, forming small suburban
centers.
"There is going to be more difficulty
in getting a living from farm lands
hereafter. The problems the farm will
have to face are twenty times more
numerous and more complex than fif
ty yearB ago. So we are brought to
the absolute necessity of developing
a new point of view towards agrlcvi
tural life and industry. If you be
lieve tbere are possibilities of making
a good living on the land, and life
on the land is highly honorable, stick
to lt. If the city life gets the best
young men and women who are
brought up in the country, it will be
the city's glory and the country's fault
for not developing this point of view,
the appreciation of the science of agri
culture, and for not keeping in touch
with social instructions of our age In
the rural districts as well as in the
city. And this reorganization of the
rural school is going to be a great
part in this development of the rural
life and community.
"The farm labor problem will net be
settled until you train up farm arti
sans who have pride in their work as
the shop artisan has in his work."
Notes for The Farmer.
The-barrel churn is not excelled for
making good butter.
The general market prefers butter
with color like what is usual in June.
Excessive washing may remove some
of the volatile oils from butter and
lessen its delicate flavor.
Consumers of butter are very often
the best to sell a high gTade to, but
the seller should consider the cost of
delivering.
Cows that have to drink unclean
water do not give choice milk; and af
ter they have waded in nasty water,
their udders are filthy and defile milk.
Do not keep on churning till the but
ter gathers in large lumps. Stop when
the butter granules are the size- of
wheat grains and float freely on the
buttermilk.
If starting with a cream separator,
study carefully the directions of the
manufacturer. He knows what his
machinery can do and how to use it
to the best advantage.
If a barrel churn is run too fast,
the cream will not fall from one end
'o the other as is should; and if run
. slow, the cream will slip along the
tides of the churn and fail to be agi
tated enough.
If the buttermilk is strained lurough
cheese cloth or a hair-strainer, crumbs
of butter will be caught that would
otherwise be lost. Keep the cheese
cloth or the rair strainer scrupulously
clean, or the butter may deteriorate.
Under cleanly farm conditions, the
lactic acid bacteria predominates over
all other kinds; and the lactic acid
ones are the helpful kind. The bad
ones are carried in dirt. Keep dirt out
of milk, and thc bad ones will be
largely kept out. The importance of
cleanliness is so great that the subject
will bear being recalled to mind now
and then.-From "Drops of airy
Cream" in the Progressive Farm
Wolf Hunter's Record.
Ninety-three timber wolves killed in
less than a month's time is the record
made by James Macintyre of Quatsino,
who has presented a bill to the govern
ment agent here for $1395, the amount
of bounty at the ra>te of $15 a head.
An examination of Mr. Maclntyre'a
account showed that some of the
wolves were killed before February 1,
the date on which the increased boun
ty came into effect, and on these he
will be allowed only ?5 per head, but
he has evidence enough of February's
work to make his claim when revised
amount to about $1000.
It is reported that Indians up the
coast, who have learned of the in
creaseevxevx vxv x shrd s ta setaoinn
crease in bounty on panthers and
wolves to $15 a head each, have tak
en to the woods on a hunt, and it is
expected that they will soon have
large sums to collect from the govern
ment.-New Alberni Press.
Animals and Rain.
"Lions, tigers and all the cat tribe
dread rain," said a zoo keeper. "On a
rainy day they tear nervously up and
down their cages, growling and tremb
ling. We usually give them an extra
ration of hot milk. That puts them to
sleep.
"Wolves love a gray day of rain.
They are then very cheery. Treacher
our as the wolf is, no keeper need
fear him on a rainy day. He is too
happy to harm a fly.
"Snakes, too, like rain. They perk
up wonderfully as the barometer falls
and the damp makes itself felt in their
warm cases.
"Rain makes monkeys glum. They
are apt from instinct, when they see
it through the window, to clasp their
hands above their heads and sit so
for hours. That attitude, you know,
makes a kind of shelter. It is the prim
itive umbrella."-New Orleans Times

Knew His Dickens..
A third form boy in a city school
belongs to a family of Dickens wor
shippers, who have a kind of Dickens
fellowship among themselves-read
Dickens round the fireside, in turns,
at night; quote Dickens in all sorts
of little "family" catch phrases. The
boy' of nine took his place in thc
"Scripture" class this week, the les
son had been on the story of Uriah
the Hittite, and the form master was
driving it home by close questioning,
"And what," he asked, "was the name
of Uriah's wife?" Dead pause. Then
the voice of the youthful Dickens scho
lar piped, "Please sir-Heep!"-Lon

His Present.
Ezekiel had no stockings, so the
night before Christmas he hung his
trousers in the chimney of the tumble
down Florida shack that he calls
home.
The next morning a Northern visi
tor in the village, calling at the cabin
with some presents for the family,
was greeted by Ezekiel's smiling face,
which protruded from a narrow open
ing in the door. After wishing him a
Merry Christmas, the lady asked what
he had received for presents.
"Ah guess Ah got er nigger," said
Ezekiel. "Mah pants is gone."

, To Ventilate a Room.
A frame covered with a cheese cloth
for use In the pantry window will he
found a boon to the dweller in the
smoky city. It will keep the pantry
ean, yet ventilate it 'as well. The
frame should be made as high as one
wishes the window to be opened. This
same idea is excellent for ventilating
bedrooms.-Boston Post.
Folding the Clothes.
Be exact in folding the drying
clothes after washing. The selvedges
ought to be at the Sides and the arti
cle folded lengthways. Fold the olothes
as nearly as possible of equal thick
ness, or they will not look well when
finished. Avoid unnecessary creases.
Clothes should remain for two hours
? folded in a basket before mangling.
Mangling requires great care and at
tention in order to to stretch the arti
cles nor strain them unduly. Take the
damp and folded clothes and place
them in the mangle perfectly straight
-New Haven Register.
Caring for Silks.
Many complaints are heard over
the counter to tho e?fect that silk gar
ments, some of which have been
worn very little, seem to split. The
very worst thing for silk is heat, and
ofttimes a wardrobe is built where a
chimney runs right back of it, or a
radiator is too near, so the silk crum
'? bles.
Many wholesalers have holes drilled
In the walks or ventilation In winter,
if their silks are near any excessive
-ehat, and manufacturers that have a
heavy stock in summer alwr T nlace
it in cold storage. Certain c . are
more perishable than others, out it is
well to take precaution for the protec
tion of all.-Boston Post.
Serviceable Kitchen Rugs.
Buy 1 1-2 yards of heavy write dusk
(12 ounces ia a good weight, I think)
which will be about 10 cents a yard;
sew a narrow hem at each end. Buy
in the 10-cent store three 10-cent
cans of ready mixed paint, two light
slate and one black. Give the dusk a
coat of the slate, using one whole
can; let it dry before applying second
coat, which should only take about
1-2 of the remaining can. Then with
the black paint a border around it
2 1-2 or 3 inches wide. If repainted
every spring rugs like this will wear
for years. They are easily cleaned,
cheap and can be made just the length
one wants. Light drab with a dark red
border makes a pretty rug, too.-Bos
ton Post.
To Restore Polish to Marble.
When the polish has been removed
from marble by acids or from any oth
er cause it is quite difficult to restore
it with such appliances as one can
use In the home. However, if one have
strength and patience it can be done.
Cover the defaced place with a thick
bed of powdered pumice stone; wet
this with water and rub with a large
flat stone, ronewlrtg the pumic stone
and water from time to time. It re
quires a great deal of hard rubbing
, to get a smooth surface. Finish by
rubbing wiih putty powder, and wa
ter.
For a rubber use a block of wood
covered with a piece of soft woolen
cloth.
To clean marble: Take two parts
of common washing soda, one part of
finely powdered chalk, one part pum
ice stone; mix all together and sift
through muslin. Afterwards mix the
powder with some water; ub this
well on the marble and the stains will
disappear.
To add a gloss wash the marble
with fuller's earth and hot water.

Americans Preferred.
The Pennsylvania railroad an
nounces that it will give preference
in employment to American citizens.
The Washington Star approves this
as a true policy and one that should
be generally adopted. It says: Wheth
er native or foreign born, the Ameri
can citizen-the man whose lot Is
cast with us and who is here to stay j
-should have the call in all Am erl? j
can opportunity. He is the one upon
whom the country must rely in time
of war, and he is entitled therefore
to the right-of-way in tine of peace.
The best "things- are his by every
right. He builds and he stays. He
establishes a local habitation and a
name, and as he is for the country,
the country should bc f?r him. The
man who is here today and ?one to
morrow has no claim to anything but
to the odd jobs which great pressure
for labor brings. The steady thing
for the citizen, every time.
