JOHN HENPECK'8 REVENGE. Mm Honpeck when he took a wife" Thoo«ht that meant happineaa tor Ute. Bat wedlock often turna out "Wron* Baca tail a woman's ton*ue's too Ions. Aad then her mother would chin to. 52SslhKtr.3.£r Be onto a deep creek be hied. Determined on sad auldde. Whan fairies whispered from the wood. •"Why don't you show your true manTou surely have a punkln head If toy the nose you may be led. Why don't you play a trick or two ild show those torments who'd whoT" Jest then John saw an oaken plank That reached unto the other bank. Be loudly laughed: "I've sot 'em now! wow ! TU simply fix that oaken plank Where they cross o'er to yonder bank. Be when they go to Aid society. Where scolds and gossips are almighty, "They'll get a ducking good and deep. My. won't I laugh to hear 'em weep? TO let 'em soak awhile In there Until they get more dcbonaire." Now, soon they came around the turn, Those women who had wordsito bum. And whin they got out on th# plank Tip! Bplash! "Murder!" In they sank. The bank right there wee -very -steep. - The creek itself was also deep. They stood on tiptoe * their chin, 80 even yelling chance was slim. While John, who hid across the way, Rejoiced to hear those two scolds pray, "O Lord, Just get us safe to shore Aad we'll not scold John any more'" Tou bet he worked the hero bluff When he was sure they had enough. And, though this happened long ago. Jehn still Is their great, brave hero. No need to split a scolding tongue: No need to amputate a lung: No need to throw a half ton brick; Jast let 'em drop Into the creek. C M. BARNITZ. KURI08 FROM KOR RESPONDENTS Q. How can I get my roosters to grow their new tails In time for fall fain? I have lost the ribbon twice befa use my birds had molted out their tails and were knocked by the Judge. A. About six or eight weeks before the fair gently pull the tall feathers. Q. Please tell me at what price 1 squabs sell. My homers do not seem to know how to build a nest that wfl' keep their eggs from rolling out and breaking. How can I prevent Ibis Idsfc? A. Price of squabs depends on quality, size and season. The rich do not. object to $6 per dozen for fine birds. At seaside resorts they pay as high as $4.50. For cold storage you get from $2.25 to $2.50. Wholesale winter prices run from $3 to $4. Provide earthen bowls for nesta and egg breakage will cease. Q. Will you please Inform me how te atop the blood when a cock's comb has been cut off? A. Obtain a sofi feather length of wound and cover the raw surface. This will at once atop the blood. Keep bird by himself until ' wound heals. Q. How can I stop egg eating? A. Feed the egg fiends nothing but egg shells until they get a surfeit This invariably ceres. Q. Can bacteria penetrate an eggshell? If so, which Is more apt to contain germs, a fertile or Infertile ! egg? A. In a recent test at the Pasteur Institute nearly half of the fertilized eggs contained bacteria, while the Infertile eggs were free from them. Q. What has been your experience ta crossing the different breeds of turkeys? A. We have found cross bred twrkeys not so vigorous as pure bred and more susceptible to disease. Q. Where may I secure a copy of tfce new "Standard of Perfection T' Will It be the criterion for Judging at next winter's Bhowa? A. The new "Standard" will not be ont until after abow season Is over. The old "Standard" will be used by Judges and la for sale by the different poultry Journals. DONT8. Don't let your turkeys loaf over on ! the next farm and eat the feejJ and then expect to claim them without op- 1 position In the fall. Don't trust to luck and neglect to j lack your plant at night. Thoee open •oops will be visited by Skunk, Wea*4 A Co. Don't give up a good Job and go Into the poultry business thinking lfs a Don't let mice multiply under the' brooders nor rata feaat on your chicken Don't let pheaaanta run where the bus are yew. Tew leaves are poison too. Don't allow bens out where "red devRr" run. They will run over them Just lot fun. Don't expect your trade to be Immense Id size when you fall to regularif advertise. Don't let the hogs eat the turklets up ■mot keep the chicken killing pap.

•ALT CAT A PIGEON TONIC.' Pigeons, like cows, need salt, and the English make the following mixture—Salt Cat— that furnishes them the aalt needed and a splendid tonic besides. It's a standard: Salt Oat.— Dry pulverised yellow day. one peck; fine air slaked lime, one-half peck; oatmeal, one-half peck; fine charcoal, one-half peck; mealed oyster shell, one-half peck. Add four ounces each of ground anise, caraway, cumin and coriander ! Mix thoroughly, then add for each i half gallon & mixture one-half pint of j water, two tabteapoonfula of Douglas mixture and a heaping handful of fine Keep the lumps before birds at aU times or pulverize for boppar. * LETTERS FROM THE BOYS. "Boys will be boys," and they do like = pets, and their favorite peta are chickBoys are gradually leaving Bantams for the larger breeds, which simply proves they are getting more practical. A boy Vrite® us: "I am selling off my L Sebright* and Intend to buy White ; Wyandottes Bantams are pretty, but I want chickens I can make money on." 1 Another writes for a rooster and , says: "I used to have rabbits and i " guinea pigs. I sold them and bought Game Bantams. For three years now I have been keeping White Rocks and Dottes and I have been saving the : money from eggs and culls and have 1 $45 In the bank. 1 "I have paid my feed bills, and 1 mother uses all the eggs she wants. '. besides a chicken sometimes." Here's a 'hlrd letter that Isn't Just 1 so pleasant: "I am reading your "Notes' every wee' and keeping them all. j ,

5 that rough scab that gets on my roost- 1 , eris legs. I like chickens and want I to be a fancier some day. but Just t now I am fighting It out all alone. r "My parentB won't help me at all. but I work hard, and my chickens have [ paid their bills right along." Now. Isn't it a pity this last boy's parents don't know a good thing when ? they see it. Hope your boy Isn't "fighting It out all alone." Hope you're lnj terested In hla pleasures and emplnys meUtS- — — ' FEATHERS AND EGG8HELL8. ' When our birds droop their wings ' and pant on the roost we chase tbeni * Into the yards for the night. The dew | freshens them and In the morning they ? are bright and lively. We find metal roofing on poultry ! buildings a pretty hot proposition. Tar roof the same. They retain the heat ' so long. There Is nothing better than ! ' cedar shingles. When you take up a breed lta pop- ' ularity must be considered or you will J ; be stranded with a lot of blrhs you can't sell. For meat, eggs and fancy the Wyandottes and Rocks are now ; the rage. : i The drought In many sections the I past season made oats very light. | Thresheis could blow this light stuff ' i out, but as they are paid by the bushel ' It Is carried to the granary. Buy oats by weight this year and be sure your horse and hens aren't cheated with . ^ Interest In poultry culture Is shown 1 1 by the organization of new poultry | ' 'associations ererywhere. The Bloomsburg (Pa.) association Just organized 1 J with 100 members, the Snnbnry or- . ganlzatlon held Its first show last year with- 700 entries, while the Lewlsburg 1 association, only two years old, has I J . the largest membership In Pennsyl- j | | vania. These three associations are I within an hour's ride of each other. I r 1 When a watchdog gets very little , ] _ | meat It Isn't much of a Job to bribe I r him with a piece of round steak. It's I ] better to feed your dog cheap meat j I than to raise chickens fo^ thieves to | j J Twenty-seven thousand hens, 80,000 I j i young stock and 5,000 ducks are I housed on the farms of a Lakewood I ! (N. J.) poultry company. They are I „! buying up adjoining farms and open- I 3 lng egg stores In the cities. Don't say _ j "Do chickens pay?" At corahusklng It Is poor economy a to let green corn and nubbins lie In the ' , field unless hogs follow the buskers and clean them up. v f If turkeys clean up this yellow corn „ yellow diarrhea will clean them up and you'll clean up no yellow coin, e 80 many pigeon breeders allow the n droppings to accumulate and cake on ; the loft floors. p. If you Intend to raise chicks on the t same ground next season, lime the surtflce well, plow It under and sow wheat Roll this smooth and keep the . chickens off till it Is well grown
