Sharp gravel should always be supplied to fowl* that are fattened In close confinement. Box nest* are all rigid enough, the slxe depending upon the breed of fowls.

A varied diet for poultry Is a nee try help to their general health and sa much to do with their value as If disease appears and resists renteles, it Is better to begin with new stock than to breed from those that have been sick a long time.

For a considerable period prior to the English revolution Hominy was a day of grvat festivity slid high revelry In the old country. Incredible though It may appear, Its observance was gov emod and ordered by a paradoxical royal declaration Issued by James I. This document is generally known as the “Book of Sports." In Its prearablr It recites a royal rebuke administered to "some Furitanes and precise people" for "probl biting o' unlawful punishing of Our good people for using their lawfull K,-creations and honest exercises upon Sundsyes and other holy days after the afterooone sermon or service." and then be refer* to “the generaII complaint of our people, that they were barred from all lawful Recreation and exercise upon the Sundsyes afternonoc. which cannot but produce two evils, the one tbo hindering of the conversion of many, whom their priests will take occasion hereby to vexe, persuading them that no honest mirth or recreation Is lawfull or toUershie in our HeItgion which cannot but breed a great discontment In our people's hearts The other Inconvenience la that this prohibition barretb the common and meaner sort of people from using such exercise* as may make their bodies more able for Wane when we or our shall hare occasion to use

Then follows the royal mandate “‘.hat no lawful Keereatlon ahall be bared to our good People" and "the Bishop and all other Inferior Churchmen and Churchwardens" and enjoined to “bee ca refull and dlllgenC both to Instruct the Ignorant and convince and reforme them that are misled In religion.* "Our pleasure likewise la that the Bishop of the Diocese take the like straight order with all the Puritans and Predslana within the aame, either contraln Ing them to coafonne themselves or to leave the country, according to the La we* of Our Kingdoms and Canons of our Church." This declaration pro cecda to defloa "lawful! Recreation" at "Dancing, either men or women; archrrle for men. leaping, vaulting or any other such harmless Recreation. Inclod Ing May game*. Wltsun-Ale* and Mor-rls-dancea and the setting up of.

A penalty was Inflicted upon those who did not Join In the Sunday sports, and no one could take part In them without first having attended divine service la the parish church, which was ala

underlain of penalty. In those days the clergymai
