VOLUME XXVIII Three Institutions Receive Donations Three Institutions Receive Donations BENEFICIARIES OF THE SCHOOL CHILDREN'S RACES Charity Hospital, Carnegie Library and the Old Folks and Orphan Home Get Liberal Donations—Half of Net Proceeds Reserved for Next Year's Races—Cost of Races Over Three Hundred Dollars At a meeting of Negro Business and Professional Men's Association which was held in the annex of the First Congregational church on last Thursday night the final report on the school children's races which were run at the baseball park on the second of this month, was received. The report as given by the secretary-treasurer, Prof. S. A. Grant, was very gratifying to the members of the association and showed a balance on hand of $357.20, after all disbursements had been made. Of this balance on hand the association thought it best to reserve a sufficient amount to put the races on next year and, therefore, voted to lay aside one half the net proceeds which is $178.60 This is over twice the amount reserved last year, but it was shown that the cost of holding the races each year is increasing on account of the added attractions which are given, and as a consequence, it is necessary for the association to lay aside a liberal amount each year to insure the success of the affair. Some idea of the great expense of the races this year may be gained when it is seen that it took exactly $297.75 to "pull them off." The greatest increase in any one item this year over that of last year was the park hire. Instead of five dollars which was paid last year, the cost of park hire this year was $13.44, ten per cent of gross taken in at the gate. Of the sum which was voted to charity, Charity Hospital received $125.00, Carneige Library $25.00 and the Odd Folks and Orphan's Home $28.60. Among the other matters taken up by the association was that of organizing a base ball team. The organization accepted a challenge for a game from the mail carriers, the date of the contest be to decided upon later. It was also decided that the prizes of a few of the winners in the races of May 2nd, who have not yet call for them, will remain at The Tribune office until the middle of July, when they will be, if not called for, returned to the treasury of the association.

SCENE IN A GEORGIA COURTHOUSE WHICH SHOWED THE JUDGE, IF NOT THE LAW, WAS RESPECTED. [From The New-England Magazine.] Georgia has a stringent law forbidding its citizens to carry pistols on pain of forfeiting the weapons and paying a line of $50 or being imprisoned for thirty days. Shortly after the passage this enactment Judge Lester was holding court in a little town, when suddenly he suspended the trial of a case by ordering the sheriff to lock the doors of the courthouse. "Gentlemen," said the judge, when the doors were closed, "I have just seen a pistol on a man in this room, and I cannot reconcile it to my sense of duty to let such a violation of the law pass unnoticed. I ought, perhaps, to go before the grand jury and indict him, but if that man will walk up to this stand and lay his pistol and a fine of $1 down here, I will let him off this time." The judge paused, and a lawyer sitting just behind him got up, slipped his hand into a hip pocket, drew out a neat, ivory handled six shooter and laid it with $1 down upon the stand. "This is all right," said the judge, "but you are not the man I saw with the pistol." Upon this another lawyer arose and laid down a colt's revolver and a dollar bill before the judge, who repeated his former observation. The process went on until nineteen pistols of all kinds and sizes and shapes lay upon the stand, together with $19 by their side. The judge laughed as he complimented the nineteen delinquents upon being men of business, but added that the man whom he had seen with the pistol had not yet come up, and, glancing at the far side of the court, he continued: "I'll give him one minute to accept my proposition, and if he fails, I will hand him over to the sheriff." Immediately two men from the back of the court arose and began to move toward the judge's stand. Once they stopped to look at each other, and then, coming slowly forward, laid down their pistols and their dollars. As they turned their backs the judge said: "This man with the blaak whiskers is the one that I originally saw." Miss L. T. Tyson who was stopping with Mrs. E. L. Jordan, at 525 Gaston street, east, left the city Sunday morning for Cordele, Ga. Miss Tyson spoke very glowingly of her stay here and that she will return to the city during the summer. SAVANNAH, GEORGIA,SATURDAY, MAY 17, 1913 Fisk University Prepares For Closing DR. BOOKER T. WASHINGTON TO DELIVER ADDRESS Students and Alumni Give Mammoth Concert-Proceeds From Concert to go to Endowment Fund-Trying to Raise $300,000. --- Nashville, Tenn., May 12, 1913. Preparations are under way at Fisk University for commencement, which takes place Wednesday day, June 11th. Five members will represent the graduating class on the program. The commencement address will be delivered by Dr. Booker T. Washington, a member of the Board of Trustees of Fisk University. The junior class is preparing to present "The Lion and the Mouse" during commencement week. There will be the usual class day exercises, receptions and other exercises. A feature of special importance will be announcements with reference to the endowment fund which the University has been struggling for the past two years to raise. The Trustees are making every effort to complete the fund of $300,000 by June 1st, having nearly $100,-000 still to raise. The University is looking with hope to its friends for the completion of this fund by that time. On Tuesday night, May 13th, the students and local alumni, under the leadership of Professor John W. Work, gave a mammoth jubilee concert at Ryman Auditorium, the largest assembly hall in the city of Nashville. The University made every effort to make this the greatest concert in its history. Plantation melodies by a chorus of over 300 voices was the main feature of the program. This chorus was assisted by the University Glee Club and noted soloists. A great deal of interest was manifested throughout the city and adjoining towns in the event as marking an epoch in the musical history of the community. Fisk University is endeavoring to keep up to its musical reputation. The proceeds from this concert will go to help complete the endowment fund. East Side Pharmacy Opened During the week there was opened at 225 Randolph street a Negro drug store. This new business enterprise is owned and conducted by Dr. W. T. Pritchett, formerly of Augusta, Ga., and is known as the East Side Pharmacy. This makes the second Negro drug store in the city, and its opening is welcomed by the Negroes throughout the city.

Track Team Entertained On last Monday immediately after school the championship track team of the West Broad street school was tendered a reception,by the teachers of that school. The occasion was a very enjoyable one, and many words of praise were showered upon the boys for having won the 1913 championship among the city schools. The hero of the afternoon, of course was Jesse Sherman, the youngster who won the individual championship of the city. Aside from the teachers and members of the team, all the girls of the 8th grade were present, and one or two other prominent ones in the ticket contest, which this school won. The friends of Mrs. Augustine Coleman are glad to know that she has improved after an illness of two weeks. The Tuskegee Literary Scouts. Tuskegee, Ala. The closing meeting for this school year of the Literary Scout organization was held in Dorothy Hall on Wednesday evening, May 14, at eight o'clock. Dr. A. B. McKenzie, who after graduating from Tuskegee, studied medicine at Shaw University, now serving as interne at the John A. Andrew Memorial Hospital, Tuskegee Institute, presented the paper of the evening, "The Relation of the Physician to the Public." Dr. McKenzie's paper was without doubt one of the richest papers that has yet been presented before the organization, and this was evidenced by the hearty and interesting discussion which followed. A choice piano selection was rendered by Mrs. Norma Washington Davis, and pleasing vocal numbers were sung by Miss Lillie V. Bell, Mr. John L. Anderson, and Mr. Thomas H. Campbell. Captain Grover Harden, chairman, together with Mrs. E. J. Jones, Misses Susie Davis, Isabella Wheelis, Emily Moore, and Messrs. Lovette, McCaster, Jordan, Clayton and Steward entertained. In the absence of the president, Mr. Alvin J. Neely, who is traveling with the quartette now in the North, Mr. Robert L. Waggener, the vice-president, presided. The Local Alumni Association held a short and enthusiastic business meeting Wednesday night, May 6. in Dorothy Hall. A large number of the members were in attendance. President Stewart presided. A considerable amount of business, such as collecting dues and making pre-arrangements for the general alumni meeting May 30th, was transacted. The Association was also favored with an interesting talk made by Mr. Powell, a graduate of Tuskegee, who up to a few weeks ago, has been engaged in an important work on Hilton Head Island, S.C. Mr. Powell, in a few remarks, told of his work there and the many difficulties experienced by him in trying to make it effective. Music was rendered and refreshments were served in abundance at the close of the meeting. Mr. and Mrs. F. M. Cohen Move Into New Home. On Thursday Mr. and Mrs. F. M. Cohen, formerly of 312 Duffy street, east, moved into their new home at 537 Park avenue, east. The new home of Mr. and Mrs. Cohen is considered by many the most beautiful residence in the city owned by Negroes. It is a two-story, press-brick structure and contains eight rooms. It is lighted by both gas and electricity and is fitted up with all the latest improvements. It has a large basement about six feet high. Vast Crowd Of Odd Fellows Out OVER EIGHTEEN HUNDRED ATTENDED THANKSGIVING SERVICES Exercises Among Best in History of Order—Parade Extended [Over Six Blocks—Program Excellently Rendered—Music Very Inspiring—Liberal Donation to Church—Invalids of Order Remembered. The Odd Fellows thanksgiving services at St. Philip church, West Broad and Charles streets, on last Sunday afternoon were attended by a vast concourse of people. The order was out in full strength and more than filled the space in the church which was reserved for it. The lodges assembled at 2 o'clock at the Harris street hall and, under the chief marshal, Capt. Julius Maxwell, marched to the church where the exercises were held. The procession, which was about six blocks in length, started at East Broad and Liberty streets, and in solemn order proceeded west to West Broad, thence to the church, where the lodges were joined by the Households. In the line of march the Patriarchie took the lead. They were followed by the Past Grand Masters' Council, and then the subordinate lodges. At the church the Patriarchie and the Past Grand Masters' Council again occupied the places of honor, with the subordinate lodges being seated behind them and in the gallery. The Households of Ruth occupied all the seats in the south row and also a portion of the gallery. The meeting opened in charge of Mr. Edward H. Burke, who after a few remarks, turned the gathering over to Mr. J. C. Lindsay, the master of ceremonies. One of the most inspiring features of the exercises was the singing of the opening ode by the members of the order. Seldom has there been heard in this city any singing which so aroused one as this number rendered by the order. All in all, the celebration was considered by many of the older members of the order the most commendable in the history of Odd Fellowism in this city. The Households were very creditably represented by Mrs. M. E. Harper. Her paper was very thoughtfully written and well read. Miss Romisita Murcherson who spoke in behalf of the Juveniles also presented her subject in telling effect. The two duets by Mrs. A. E. Orner and Miss Etta McIntosh, and Mrs. Julia C. Woodruff and Mrs. L. V. Drayton were pleasingly rendered. The anniversary sermon was delivered by the pastor of the church, the Rev. R. H. Singleton, His discourse was short, and, as is always the case when he speaks, greatly enjoyed. He spoke on Odd Fellowism. 28 sex 12 11 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 The order made a very liberal donation to the church and also remembered the invalids among their number.

Stearns. a Beduuse of Jacob's determination not to let Benjamin go to Caypt and the determination of the sons not to zo without him they“tarried till the corn they had brought was tonsumed. ‘Thea when they had to zo or starve Judah pleaded with his father, sasfug: “Seni the Jad with me, and we wl arise and go. * * * Twill be surety for him” {verses 8-10). ‘Chis is all so sugzestive. }for the great and only surety, the Tord Jesus, came from the tribe of Judeh (Heb. vil, 14), and in one of the great “Who is this?" verses coucernind Him it is written, “Who is Ue that bath been surety for bis heart to approacl: unto me?" Wer. xxx, 21. V. Ma still believe, as I have long believed, that anointed eyes may see Jesus Christ on every page of Scripture, hat he must be blind indeed who cannot see Iim in this wonderful story. ‘As Jacob xent away his sons with a ‘present for the ruler in Expt who <on- trolled the corn and double money to pay for the first corn and the next aud Benjamin he said, “Go Almighty give you merey before the man” (verse 14). This is one of the most wonderful names of God in the Bible, and, it is found thirty-one times in the hook of Job and only twenty-six times: in all the rest of the Bible. It is “El-shaddai.” which may sigoi- fy “the Mighty God, who is all sufii- cient." ‘To know the sufficiency of }God we must know our own insufli- ciency and become, like Job, thorough- ly emptied of self (Job xiii. 5, 6). Ja- cob was now thoroughly emptied, even of his last loved son, Joseph's own brother. and «was yery near the time of fullness of blessing. ‘We may not attempt to describe the feelings of Joseph as he looked upon the face of his own brother and gave orders to the ruler of his house to make ready to have those men dine swith him, nor can we imagine their surprise as. Simeon having joined them, those eleven men sat before bim if the order of their ages—Reuben, Simeon, Levi. Judab and so on to tho youngest. Benjamin (verses 23, 33). We think of bow thorouzbly we are known by Him whom we know not as we might and will some day, and wo cannot but think of another zatherins of twelve when Me sat with the eleren at the passerer. Judas having gone. ‘Their fear and the “Peace be to you. fear not.” of verses 18, 23. make us think of Ils “Peace be unto you. * * * Wohr are ye troubled?” to the ten, and a week later His “Peace be unto you" to the eleven (Luke xxiv. 36-38; Jobn Xx, 26). ‘The great adversary takes de- light in Gilling us with thoushts of fear and unrest, but the Lord’s thoushts to us are always thoughts: of peace (Jer. xxix, 1f; Ps. xxix, 11; Ixxxv, 8; John xiv. 1; Matt. xxiv, 6). The steward of Joseph's house seems to have known thé God of Israel (verse 23). and we are not surprised, being in the service of such a man as Joseph. His words must have comforted the brethten and specially when he restored Simeon to them, no doubt in good condition. ‘The water for their feet (Kerse 24) takes us back to xviii, 4. and on to Luke vii, John xiii. When Joseph came home at noon they had the present ready and bowed themselves to bim to the earth with probably never 2 thonght of a dream they had heard twenty years before. There should be great comfort to every believer in “the eternal purpose of God” and in the as- surance that “every purpose of the Lord sball be performed” (Eph. sll, 11; Jer. Ii, 29). How can our hearts be quiet as we look on this scene and hear Joseph say to them: “Is your fa- ther well, the old man of whom ye spake? * * * Is this your younger brother of whom ye spake unto me? God be gracious unto thee, my son.” We do not wonder'that Joseph could not restrain his feelings and that he had to burry to his chamber to weep. How natural to read that after weep- ing he washed his face before he could be calm enough to go out to them again (werses 30, 31).

It is a common belief that this punishment causes mortification to set in and that the hand decompuses, but such is not the case, for by the time the leather wears off-the hand is healed, the resuit being ‘that the hand is rendered useless and remains closed forever. It is a punisb- ment not often In use, but is some times inflicted in cases of murder ot constant theft. It is o punishment that cannot be applied except by the sultan's orders.—Blackwood's Maga zine. ‘The First Railway Trains. Some high speeds were attained by the early English railrond trains.

JACKSON,-SALE WEN. : Cookery Points The Appetizing Cucumber. EME SO DEEN R WHO as ee jar with the possibilities of cooking cucumbers 2 real, culinary treat is in store. So different is the flavor of these much malfgned vegetables when they are properly cooked from their flavor when raw that they really afford sm answer to the oft expressed wish Sor something new under the sun in the line of vegetables. One of the most delicious ways of transforming the raw frult to a digestible and flavor- some dish Js in the form of timbales. ‘To make these timbales you will need cooked cucumber pulp, which may be procured by putting cucumbers which bare been previously peeled and Doiled through 2 meat chopper. Use ‘a cupful of this pulp to ob>balf cupful of breadcrumbs and one-half cupful of thick eream sauce. Add a tablespoon- fal of lemon juice, the beaten yolks of two eggs and a Iittle onion jutce. When these ingredients have been well mix- ed fold in the beaten whites of the two exes. Bake in timbale inotds In hot water and serve hot. The Art of Baking Cucumbers. For an appetizing vegetable to serve with the meat coutse split good sized cucumbers lengthwise, leaving the skins on. ‘Then scoop out the middle | pulp, leaving a strong shell. Chop the pulp, add beaten exss—one ese is enough for six euctimbers—a cupful dt breadcrumbs and seasoning to taste. Fill the shells, rounding the filling off at the top, and bake in a moderate oven for three-quarters of an hour. To make sculloped cucumbers peel and slice six cucumbers. Then arrange them in a buttered baking dish as if scalloping any other vegetable, first a layer of breadcrumbs and then 2 layer of cucumbers, and so on until the dish fs filled. Between the layers flavor with grated onion and lemon, a little butter, paprika, celery salt, salt and pepper. Bake an hour. For stuffed cucumbers peel and split as many good sized cucumbers as de- aired. Scrape out the pulp and fill with a mixture of chicken stock and crumbs favored to taste. Bake in a baking dish in a half inch of chicken stock. They should be baked till ten- der and basted often with the stock on the bottom of the dish. The remaining tick, sehen: tha: cuctuibers are, done should be thickened with a teaspoonful of cornstarch and served as a gravy ‘with the vegetables. ‘Two Tempting Hot Weather Entrees. To make deviled cucumbers begin by peeling and slicing them as when pre paring raw cucumbers. Place them in ice water for an hour and then drain them. Dip them in four seasoned with salt, celery salt, pepper or any desired reasoning, and fry in butter and serve with the following sauce: To 2 cup of stewed, strained toma- toes add one-half teaspoonful of salt, one teaspoonful of sugar, grated lemon skin, the Juice pf balf a Jemon and a tablespoonful of olive ofl. Cook this til well mixed and serve hot. Cucumbers on toast are a delicious dish. The vegetables should be cut in half inch slices and stewed in water till tender, but not broken. Meanwhile boll a cupful of cream with a table- spoonful of butter, salt and pepper to taste. Drain the cucumbers, heat them in the cream sauce and serve on toast. A Hot Sauce of Cucumbers. ‘To make cucumber ketchup take three large cucumbers, peel and grate them. Add a tablespoontul of salt and eleven teaspoonfuls of black pepper. Add a handfal of horseradish, one large grat- ed onion and a pint of strong vinegar. Bottle and cork loosely. Orange Charlotte. Onethird box of gelatin, one-third cupful of cold water, one;third cupful of boiling water, a cup of sugar, juice of a Jemon, a cup of orange Juice and pulp, whites of three eggs. Soak the gelatin in cold water until soft, add the boiling water, sugar and lemon juice and a little of the grated rind. Cool in a pan of ice water and when it begins to harden beat in the stifiy beaten whites of the eggs. Serve with a cus- tard made with the yolks of the egg, a pint of milk, three heaping tablespoon- fuls of sugar and a little salt. Flavor to taste or sou can cut it up in pleces and serve with whipped cream. Green Peas. Put the destred quantity of young peas in a stewpan with butter, allow- ing eight ounces to every quart of peas; 2 bunch of parsley, a few small onions and a little salt. Moisten with broth and cook slowly until tender. Now stir in the beaten yolks of two egcs and teaspoonful of sugar, not allow- ing to boil after the eggs are added. ieee on a hot disk.

They Are Long and Narrow and May Be Handsomely Ornamented. | The vogue of the large hand bag hung from the shoulder or arm bs thick cords and tassels seems to be over. This bag has been a favorite for many seasons. Gradually from quite small dimensions it grew to enormous proportions till women not only curried In its recesses all the vanity fittings, keys, money and hand- kerchief, but various articles of jewel- ry as well. ‘The Intest bag goes to the other extreme In size. Made long and not very deep, it is sbaped like a man’s pocketbook, with an envelope flap forming the fastening on one side, while on the other there is a narrow strap xed so that the bag may be carried on the hand. Theso bags; made of polished leather or molre, are lined with soft white kid or satin in some delicate coloring, and they are quite fat. 7 Some of the more expensive varieties of the flat bag are outlined In flexible gold and caught down with jeweled clasps, but the more ordinary makes have a simple fastening in plain gilt p Riaed bade ‘tinads. The girl with several hats to stow away in her bedroom finds the prob- lem of where to dispose of them a difficult one to solve. Two or three hats put away in a box together are not improved by the contact of one with the other. Mforeover, the ordi- nary hatbox is not beautiful to look at. Here is an Idea for a nest of hat boxes that fs really pretty: Procure three large square band- boxes with Ilds and cover all as neat- ly as possible with flowered, chintz, ning the insides with fines. ‘or hol- land. Next get your carpenter to run up a three tler“stand of white wood (on the principle of the wicker cake stends that are used for afternoon tea) on which to place the boxes. ‘The stand, which consists of four posts and three or four shelves each large enough to hold a hat box, should be enameled white, and the effect of the chintz cov- ered boxes on itis a very pretty one. Mrs. Willis—Is your husband of a Iit- erary turn of mind? Mrs. Gillis—Yes. Whenever an idea turns up he turns it over ip his mind, turns it out as a story, turns {t in to an editor, who turns it around and turns it down.—Puck: Br er i ee a ee eee See a eee fore being plowed for the reason that myriads of surface weeds that have ! been germinated will be killed by the Inte plowing, while the ground will be | a good deal mellower than it would be if plowed early and allowed to settle following heavy rains. One city man whose case the writer voted the other day rented seven acres of land and put ft into horseradish. In October when he harvested his crop be had twelve tons and 400 pounds of the root. {Ils expenses, including rental, | preparation of tbe soll;” horseradish sets und harvest expense was $242 The crop brought him $75 per ton, or $917, leaving a net profit of $675. Many tands do not give good results in the growing of clover and alfalfa because they need sweetening with lime. When the need of this treat- ment is Indicated by testing with blue litmus, which fg,exposed to the soll for a couple of hours and turns red. from a ton to a ton and 2 half of fine- ly ground limestone should be applied and harrowed in, or it may be applied sith manure. : For the past three years the Missa- chusetts experiment station bas been testing out the question of the Inter ference of alfalfa roots with systems of tile drain. It was found that when notiting was done to prevent it the roots seriously clogged the tile, but that the roots could be kept out of the drains by covering’the tile at the time of laying with excelsior or sawdust soaked with creosote. Those who Lave not {ound It out by their own experience will be interested in knowing’ that, while a tent-is a very hot ‘place during the daytime when the sun Is shining, ft becomes a re- markably cool place just as soon as the sun fs set. ‘hero is something in connection with the rapid radiation of the heat from a tent that brings this about. Besides this, 2 tent will be per fectly ventilated during the night with- out a elrect wind blowing through it Many a sow fs farrowing litters of dead or weakly pigs these days sim- ply because she has not been given Proper housing and feed during the weeks that have preceded this ordeal. The trouble fs usually traceable to the tact that she has not ‘been given sufl- clent bone and muscle building food or has been given too much ollmeal. Just a little care exercised in regard to the sew’s biil of fare will save a lot of trouble and also a big loss in little pigs. Some interesting facts have been Some interesting facts have been brought out as a result of some ex- haustive statistical data which have been gathered by representatives of the anima! husbandry bureau of the federal department of agriculture rela- tive to the prolificacy of two of the leading breeds of hogs—Poland Chinas pnd\DuroeJerseys. It was found that in 21,652 litters of the latter breed the average number of pigs per litter was 9.26, while with the former breed 50,- 000 litters reported showed.an average of a triffe less than 7.5 pigs per Litter. Chemical analysis shows that a ton of corn silage contains 344 pounds of digestible nutrients—that 1s, food ele. ments that can be used by an animal for' maintenance, growth or milk pro- duction. In one ton of timothy hay there are 976 pounds of digestible nu- trients. This means that timothy hay contains more than two and a half times .as much in food elements as silage. Therefore, if timothy ts worth $10 a ton, silage would be worth a trifle less than, $4 per ton. But It is well to remember that the same acre of land which produces a ton of timo- thy will yield ten tons of silage. A horse that the writer noticed hiteh- ed the other day seemed well nigh frantle with some skin trouble, prob- ably mange, which is caused by a minute animal that tunnels just be neath the surface of the skin, where it lays its eggs and where the young are hatched. When a horse fs thus af- filcted the following treatment should Fenn care renee tesa un tortion fected parts, letting it stay on for about three hours. ‘The soap should then be washed off, the skin allowed to dry and one of the following treatments given: Bathe the entire surface of the skin with any one of the standard coal tar dips diluted with water to the proper strength or bathe the skin with common engine oi] in each gallon of which four or five ourices of sulphur have been mixed. If the case of mange ls severe the treatment should bo re- peated in about ten days. Lye’, Sewing Machine.

STERILIZED LINEN. | When There's 2 Contagious Disease In the House Look Out For Bedciothes. ‘When there bas been serious {llnes: in the home und while*ehere is seri ous illness one of the most important things to do is to thoroughly sterilize the linen—not only the bed linen, but all handkerchiefs, towels and every- thing with which the patient has come or is constantly coming in contact with, The moment that IInen is removed from a sickbed it should be put in cold water.and kept there until time for washing. In water it becomes quite harmless. and absolutely all danger from it is eliminated. One great trouble is that doctors who advise soaking the Inen in various germ killing solutions or promptly boll- ing the lnen do not realize that all stains in the linen will under such con- ditions be made practically indelible. Of course every housewife prides her- self upon her spotless linen. and to stain a great quantity of it fs, in her mind, a catastrophe. When the doctor sass. “Soak your Hnen in this or that preparation.” or “Boil all the Itnen at once, long and thoronghly,” be does not realize that this will prevent any stains on the linen from ever coming out. Practically all trained nurses today in private familles know this is not necessary. They know that such ln- en put In water and kept in water will remain quite barmless. After the lin- en has thoroughly soaked the laun- dress may casily wash out tho stains before putting such linen into the hot water_for boiling or before soaking in some germ destroying preparation. As a matter of fact, no germicide is need- ed. A long and thorough bolling of this Iinen will serve that purpose and kill every germ that lurks in the folds or meshes of the cloth.

Broil over a moderate Gre about four minutes, turning each ten seconds. Push from tho skewer to the side of the egg. Set two small slices of toasted bread, well buttered. on a serving dish. Above dispose about eighteen hot, cooked asparagus tips. Above the tips set two poached eggs. Pour over the whole a scant cup of Madeira sauce, in which six or eight peeled mushroom caps (sliced or not) have been simmered about ten minutes. ‘When manure is thrown,on the land in big. hard chunks it may be said to be for those spots worse than no fer tilizer at all. It is right here that the 2flleacy of the manure spreader comes mm It breaks the manure up finely and scatters it evenly. Germs revel in a dirty hog trough or unclean calf pail or milk pail, It is worth remembering that these same germs aro tho agencies that make all kinds of trouble with the animals or folks that have to use these utensils.

That the board of education has decided to conyert the Haven Home school, where but four grades are now being taught, into a full size public school is very gratifying tous. The appeal of our citizens for another fulfledg- ed school is of leng standing; and now that their desires along this line are about to be fulfilled is a source of much pleasure and satis- faction to us. The location of the Haven Home school property is ideal fora modern school build- ing, and the erection of a well equipped building on this proper- ty will bea délight tous all. If there is nny one thing which the members of our race must Jearn and learn quickly, it is to recognize authority when the ‘same is vested_in and exercised by nd ividuals of gur own race. This we, too often, failto do. As a result, 2 condition obtains among us, which is’indeed too sad to comment upon. This condition we find to exist‘ almost crery- where among ys In our lodges, in our societigss in our churches nnd_ elsewhere,4the same disre- gard for authority when vested in and exereled! by one of our own, is manitasted. This is in- deed to be regretted. The sooner our people realize this great and telling shorttoming of them- selves, the better will itbe for them. Authority when vested in and exercised. by a black skin is just as much authority as} when vested in a skin of any other hue. Our people must learn this sooner or later or else many failures will be ours. To those of us who have been accustomed to override authority when exercised by our own, we earnestly appeal to them, to amend their way. We must have the propér respect for each other. Let us begin to learn to do this at once and much of the existing bitterness. between so many of us will fade away.as a result. . ‘She reporttcomes to us from Washington that ao determined effort on the part of-certain demo- cratic senators and representatives will be made in the very near fu- ture to have the fifteenth amend- ment repealed.and the fourteenth amendment 5} keviged that full citizenship to the Negro will be denied hereafter. It is said that ihe Jeader in this movement to leprive the :b ‘an of; his po- litical re Oa notorious and fire-eating Senator Vardaman from Mississippi, For some time, Vardamtin tid others of his ilk have been threatening and at- tempting to bring before Congress such anti-Negro measures. How- ever, this was ap” impossibility to them as long as ‘the Republican majority held thé supremacy. Under the Republican regime, the anti-Negro measures got no fur- ther than thescomniittee room where they were killed. How- ever, the politics. ‘of the country have changed somewhat. The De- mocrats are now in power and Vardaman being a Democrat na- turally thinks that now is the time to put through his anti-Negro measures and thus go Senator Tillman one better., Will he suc- ceed? This is the all important question now. While itis true that we haye enemies of the most unmerciful and uncompromising make up; enemies who would crush out our very vitals, if the opportunity presented itself to them soto do, yet itis neverthe- less true, that we, still have re- maining, a few friends who are tried and true. Some of these are within the Republican fold; some are lined up under Democratic colors and some, we believe, are marching under the emblem of the Progressive party. These friends have not failed us in tbe past. We do not believe that they will fail us in the present. Senator Vardaman has no doubt reckoned without reason in satisfying him- self that he will be able to carry to successful fruition his anti- Negro programme. He will no doubt find supporters for his measures who will be as active as he himself will be. On the other hand, he will tind members of congress and eyen of his own par- ty, who will be most violent in their opposition to his programme. Senator Vardaman can play the game if he cares to. In his quest for notoriety, he will no doubt find pleasure in this. But lest he forgets, we wish to remind him of the biblical injunction that ‘‘what- soever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.” Tillman nas had his day and now presents the specta- ele of a broken reed. Uther Negro hating demagogues have suffered likewise. Senator Varda- man must know that there is One mightier than he is, who shields and protect those who trust and believe in Him. And that one is God. The arrest, trial and conviction of Troy Newkirk, the well-known private chauffeur, ought to have a deep significance to the many young men of our race whose daily vocation entrusts to them the steering wheels of the hun- ‘dreds of motor drawn vehicles ‘which are seen at all times in and about the streets of otir city. Newkirk was charged with reek- less driving which resulted in the death of a little child. {He was convicted of involuntary man- slaughter and sentenced to a ternt of three years in the state peni- tentiary. The trial judge in pass- ing sentence, took occasien to warn all reckless drivers to cease their yrolation of the tratiie ordi- nance, which endangers public safety or to expect punishment similar to Newkirk’s in case they are Brought before him for tria! for any accident due to their reck- lessness. Without regard to the merits or demerits of the New- Kirk case as brought cut at the trial, the questions which it brought up and the comments to, which it gave rise, ought to be food for thought to all chauffeurs and jvould be chauffeurs of our people. here is no denying the fact that there is a growing de- mand throughout the country for‘ a safer and saner handling of mo- tor cars by the drivers of them, Speed-mania has Jong since ceased to be an incurable disease. On the other hand, the courts have found a remedy for it—imprison- ment. The driver of an automo- bile has a great responsibility rest- ing upon him. He is doubly charged. Heis charged with the safety of the occupants of his car as well as the safety of.the pedes- trians among whom he flits-as he makes street crossings, viailucts, bridges, etc. Hence, he must be careful at all times if he wishes to. avoid being the cause of some serious or fatal accident. He: must remember that the streets of our municipalities are as much the property of the pedestrians as they are bis and that he should govern himself accordingly. With the advent of the automo- bile, a new and remunerative field of activity bas:been opened to our people. Some of the finest and most palatial cars are entrusted to their cares. They hold, in many instancesSpositions much sought after by other people. To hold their own, they must not only be competent but careful as well. A. car so handled that there is very little need of its going to the re- pair shop at frequent intervals, is arecommendation of the efficiency and carefulness of its driver. It matters not how reckless the other fellow may be, our people cannot afford to dolikewise We must remember that we are always on trial; that our actions are scrutin- jzed and commented upon much more than the action of others; that unfortunately, the race is made to bear the blame of the faults of individuals. In the making of history for our people, the Negro chauffeur can contribute his share. Our compentency along mechanical lines is doubted, The Negro chauffeur can do a great deal to dispel this doubt. Owing to alleged carelessness, in- difference aed insensibility to‘re- sponsibility, we are said to be in- capable of holding positions which carry with them the care and i keeping of the lives of human be- ings. By their actions qur Negro ‘chauffeurs can deny this. We re- igret that the Newkirk trial came | tout. We are sorry for the convicted, his victim and his_sur- vivors. However, the trial has its meaning to all of our young men who are drivers of cars in and about our city. May they catch the significance of it and govern themselves accordingly. ‘i Pike Tine ta Kaan Quoted. The Time to Keep Quiet.

The administration of Confirmation on last Sunday afternoon was a grand ceremony. Twenty four candidates, mostly adults, received the Litany. Bishop Keiley, robed in purple vestments with mitre and crosiers, emblems of his epis- copal digaity, addressed kindly and interesting words to the candi- dates before he confirmed them. It was a beautiful sight to look on the boys and men with special badges and the girls, dressed in white with pretty veilsand wreaths as they marched in solemn proces- sion through the church. A large congregation filled the church, which was tastefully decorated. The congregational” singing also was a pleasant feature. The few boys who represented the Catholic schools at the games made a good showing. They won three first prizes and one second prize. Mariou Kelly won the two walking contests; John Herris wes first in the egg and spoon race. and Henry Debro, the little athlete of great abilities, was second iy the potato race.

Only a word indicating the degree of strength requisite for accomplishing particular objects; a mere notice of the necessity for exertion; a bugbear to children and fools; only a mere stimulus to men. Difficulties are made to be mastered.—Warren. Long Legged Birds. Long legged birds have tails so short that they seem to be out of proportion to their bodies. But there is a reason for the short tails. Birds while flying and often while walking use their tails for steering purposes. When birds with long legs take to flight they throw their legs behind in a manner that causes them to serve the same purpose as a tail. Camela' Hair. Waterproof tents, bags and rugs are made from camel's hair, which is plucked out in the spring. THE BEST PLACE In Savannah FORMEN'S GOOD SHOES Prices $3.50 up B. H. Levy, Bro. Co.

We everyday Week Are As Follows "The Brothers" "The Way of a Mother" h for Ten Cents comes to the Odd Fellow Celebration The following is the address which was delivered by Professo John McIntosh, the principa speaker of the afternoon: Worthy Deputy W D. Armstrong, o 321 District Division of the Grand. United Order of Odd Fellows, Jurisdiction of Georgia, Distinguished Chairman, Brother Edward H. Burke, of the most peaceful, harmonious and intelligent joint committee, I have attended for many years officers of the most auspicious Odd Fellows day; Master of ceremonies, ladies and gentlemen, members and lovers of the grandest order of man on earth, outranked only by the Church of the eternal Jehovah and Masonry: From the deepest recesses of my heart I fondly greet you. I am with you once more, and I most exultingly thank God for His magnanimous mercies and exuberant blessings, lavishly showered upon us since we have been absent one from another. Away back in the encircling ages of eternity, the omnipotent, omniscient, and omnipresent God created a magnificent Eden, and constituted it a gigantic receptical and supply house. He veiled it with the beautiful canopy of the blue concave of the heavens, he adorned it with the creative brilliancy of the mighty sun of rejuvenating light and heat, and in close proximity He has set the moon, lovely moon, smiling queen of the night, in all her crescendo sweetness; and in yonder heavens. He stationed the stars in myriads, each differing in brightness and beauty; and the piades, the great white way of the heavens along whose paths the angles thread on their inspecting tour, shall I not mention them? Yes, and last but not least, He has set the quintessence of beauty and loveliness, the crescent rainbow of hope in yonder sky, telling us, He will never again deluge Eden with water. Thank God for this. My brethren, I would be delighted to speak to you of God's intent and the gracious magnanimity of His heart of love, in the creation of the happy inmates of Eden; the gigantic supply house, our earth, our air and sky, but the occasion does not warrant it, and the time would not permit, and so let the pleasure of expatiating upon God's grandeur, as evinced in His heavens of beauty. Its atmosphere of hygienic potency, His Eden of food, raiment, and shelter, for man, wonderful man, but thank God for all this. He breathed into man's nostrils the breath of life, and man became a living soul, monarch of all he surveys, with a mind so powerful, an eye so penetrating, that with the telescope eye of science, he peers into the skies, grasps the dashing lightenings in their mad career, harnesses them into services for humanity; makes them to carry cars all over the face of the earth, with a little wire imakes them run our machinery. Yes, in short, makes them do our bidding, or say to the mighty winds and waters, carry, this ship to yonder country, city or seaports, and they bow in humble obedience. Thank God for all of this But in the divine graciousness of God's scrutiny, He discovered a missing link as He scanned His magnificently grand creation. He saw that it was not good for man to be alone, and so He created woman, lovely woman, queenly progenetress of the human family; God was the workman, and the material was a rib, taken I imagine from the right side, and from under his right arm, emphatically emblematic of this significance that God intended that she was to exist, work, live and die by his right side, for man surely has a wrong side, both of body, soul, and mind, and God pity the woman that gets on his wrong side. Yes, the divine mechanic got his material from under his arm, evidently to demonstrate that she was to be rightly under and submissive to man, and at the very same time, receive his strong arm of protection: she was never intended for a beast, to be nagged, or gored, or whipped or abused, by man, and kept far away from man's protection, support and love. While man is king like yonder sun of day, woman is queen like yonder sweet beautiful moon of the serene night of rest. We speak of man being God's chief handiwork, the crowning act of God's creation, but no; woman was the last act of God's creation, God reached the climax of His labor when, He created man, and He reached the very quintessence of His aesthetic nature when He made woman. Thank God for all this. Man fearfully and wonderfully made, are you living in harmony with God's plan of creation? Have you a woman by your side, a queen, a dear old mother, a devoted and faithful wife or sister, or daughter, and are you supporting, protecting and loving her? If you are thus exemplifying God's plan and purpose, may heaven smile upon you, and if you are not; let me exhort you in the language of your Maker: "Quit yourselves like men, be strong." The old parson was preaching one day and said: "My brothers and sisters, God created man and woman just alike, only in woman He placed a little deviatian." A good old brother, away back in the church, who had been asleep all through the service, raised up, rubbed his eyes and said: "Thank God for that little deviation." This is Thanksgiving [day you know.] A boy had been raised up by the priest, and was told that woman was a devil, but one day more than all, the priest and the boy were walking out, and this boy saw a woman across the street, and longingly watched her. The priest said to him: "Son, have I not told you from early childhood, from the very dawn of your youth, that woman was a devil?" "Yes father, but I want that devil." Yes, friends, want woman, tho she be a devil; God intended it to be so with this proviso, that you get yours and I get mine; hence, marriage. God made woman after man, and she has been after man ever since, and will be after man to the end of time. Thank God for woman. Agree then to walk side by side. down life's pathway, scattering sunshine, and plucking sweet, beautiful flowers, in baneful failures, doubts and fears the same as in salubrious prosperity; God will be with you on the journey. Hear the cry of the faithful, loving and true woman to her unfaithful, brutal husband, who would starve her, make her go naked, strike her down, as he would an ox! "Tho you slay me, yet I will trust in thee and be true." And when this same brutal husband excitedly and cruelly says to her: "Woman flee from my arms that once embraced you in love, leave the home that once sheltered you, and the children you bore for me in deepest love; go into the wilds of poverty—you are too ignorant and black for me now, I am too high for you." I hear that same faithful wife of his childhood days who stood by him when he was nothing, crying "Oh husband of my youth, and best days, husband for whom I have suffered the very pains of death in bearing those little ones, Oh entreat me not to leave the, for where ere thou goest, I will go, and where ere thou diest I will die and be buried." Thank God for the faithful wife. Thank God for one who will dare tell you the plain truth. But pardon me for presenting this dark picture of treacherous human nature. But, my dear brother: Odd Fellows and loving Inmates of the Households of Ruth, sweet Juveniles of innocence, remove your gaze of horror from the dark picture of human frailty and joyously with reviving thanksgiving, cast your eyes upon yonder canvass of progress of the order in the last few years. See passing before your eyes in magnificent splendor and rejuvenating grandeur 60,000 hearty Odd Fellows note the $86,000 loaned to the members of the order with which to build homes, buy farms, and go intobusiness; note if you please the $100,000 paid out to the widows and orphans; behold in yonder coffers of the Order the increasing valuable titles to $300,000 of real estate and its splendid city property of $200,000; walk with me down Auburn avenue, Atlanta, and scan with pleasing eyes that whole block between Butler and Bell streets etc. Come with me to yonder Gate City of the south, and stopping at 200 Auburn Avenue, feast your eyes upon that Odd Fellows Office Building, with its 5 stories peering into the heights of the ethereal regions of Atlanta, steadied upon an adamant basement like unto the one beneath Pisgah's heights; pass through its six fine stores, 42 offices, and six lodge rooms; view its interior finished in marble beautifully white, emblematic of purity and then clap your hands for joy and gladness, and thank God for these magnificent acquisitions and valuable assets; Yes thank God for this gem of beauty and utility, the pride of Georgia's structures in architectural utility and artistic beauty and splendor. Yea, more, let us thank God for the active spirits of the Order, who so grandly and successfully financed and brought it into a tangible and visible reality, the Hon. B. J. Davis, W. A. Edwards, Dr. W. A. Penn, W. T. Gibbons, S. Cunningham, and Wm. Driskell, Dr. H. R. Butler, G. M. Howell, Dr. A. D. Jones, R. E. Pharrow, builder, the Hon. H. L. Johnson, Attorneys er, the Hon. II. II.2. Bonham, Attorney. Hear me brethren for the good of the Order. Hear me for the good of the race! Hear me for humanily's sakel when all the profound emphasis of my soul, from the deepest recesses of my heart, I call upon you to stop fighting the men and women of the Order, who have done something for the good of the Order. Stop, stop, stop, stop! Stop fighting men and women who are doing something for the good of the order, and thereby help the race in its herculean struggle for recognition and maintenance of true manhood and noble womanhood. Let us as Savannah Odd Fellows, and invites Inmates of Household of Ruth, ask for, clamor for, pray for, and work for some of the good and grand things established here in Savannah, that are established elsewhere, by brain and brawn, the money and men of this grand old order, Davis and his true and tried followers. Let us ask for some investment here, some paying real estate, some beautiful structure, hall or bank or playhouse, or business venture of some kind that will give employment to our juveniles, yea, to our boys and girls, our men and women. Let us ask for something that will inspire in our breast and others, greater love and support for friendship, love and truth, peace, happiness and prosperity, innocence, hope and virtue. Tha k God for the propitious signs of the brighter future, and when I am dead and gone to yonder happy city, and shall be peacefully walking the golden streets of glory with Ogden and Barnes, say McIntosh told us, and cried peace in our midst while he lived. Oh thank God for smiling truth. Again let us scan with pleasing scrutiny, the signs of progress, of the order abroad, and at home. The most marked and substantial sign is viz: The establishment of the Division Deputy or Supervisor System. What is it and what has it done, and what will it do for the order? Listen! In the year 1908 there were 13 Households and 250 members. In the year 1913 there are 13 Households and 686 members. Four time as many Households and nearly three times as many members. An increase of ten Households and an increase of 416 members. In the year 1908 there were 6 lodges and 662 members. In the year 1913 there are 17 lodges and 1777 members. Nearly four times as many lodges, and nearly 2 as many members. Combined Households and lodges in 1908 were 9. Combined Households and lodges membership 1913 were 2463. Divisions in the state 52. Deputies in the State 52. Supervisors in the state 52. Total 104 Deputies and Supervisors. Brethren and sisters, tell me from what I have told you in these statistics, whether the order is dwindling away, or spreading like a green bay tree. Thank God for Savannah's phonemal increase. Oh friends, of progress let us sheathe our weapons of war, let us stack arms, let us cry peace, prosperity, and happiness. Let us cease to fight the order, let us cease to fight ourselves, and soon we shall shout the harvest home in friendship, love and truth. I have been speaking to you of the increase, the phenomenal growth of the order, and the perpetuity thereof. Let me speak to you of the race in fifty year amidst dire oppositions and deadly blows aimed at our most commendable efforts and successes. Hear the valuable epistle of statistics by "Uclee Sam," on condition of Race in 1863.

Oh thank God from whom all blessings flow. Thank Him all creatures here below. Thk Him above ye heavenly host. Thank Father, Son and Holy Ghost. We are living in the Golden Age of opportunities. Brothers, sisters, child grasp them, in this age upon ages telling to be living is sublime. See God revealing Himself again to man in the second dawn. Finally, juveniles of innocence, hope and virtue; Ruth of peace, happiness and prosperity; Odd Fellows of Friendship, Love and Truth: Members of the English House of the Order have vowed to proclaim to the world Odd Fellows great name and you Patriarchy No. 38 of the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows in America, and the first of its kind in Georgia, one and all, I happily greet you for the last time on this most august occasion, on this grand and historic spot, in this splendid and magnificent temple of Jehovah, and in the presence of these people of God. Thank God for a Singleton. We fellow Patriarch, with the strong arm, the open hand, and the willing heart, wenne ths endless bond of Brotherhood of the Patriarchy; And may its hand never close, nor its heart ever falter in the path, of duty. But when duty calls its ourey, and by the District Grand Lodge of Georgia and the B, M. C. of America, having been called upon to assemble in some temple the second Sundav in May, and give thanks to Almighty God, who has mercy shown and who has crowned the year with joy and gladness, we are all here. The lovely month of May has been appropriately chosen the Thanksgiving Celebration Period, for the Odd Fellows in America. It was the beautiful month of May that witnessed the joyous return to the ark of safety, by the dove, with the olive branch of peace in its mouth, after that terrific flood, telling Noah our Patron Saint, and the others in the ark, that the once deluged and dead earth was alive once again. That that magnificent life giving sun king of light and heat, which the Noble Grand is a very potent type, the moon the guardian queen of the night, of which the Vice Grand is a most befitting type, and the brilliant dazzling stars, gems of beauty, and sentinels of the sky, of which the supporters are a type, were once again embracing and kissing old Mother Earth, making her to bud and blossom, once more like the Rose of Sharon, and the fruits thereof to grow and to ripen sweet and luctious like those of Lebanon for man's sustenance. There were eight in the ark; Noah and his family, three sons and their wives, and so we have eight in the Odd Fellows Ark of Safety; No 1, Juvenile; No. 2, Ruth; No. 3, Subordinate Lodge; No. 4, English House; No. 5, P.G. M. Council; No 6, Patriachy; No. 7, District Grand Lodge; No. 8, B. M. C. I bow in most respectful obedience to these gigantic magnates of the Order, and I offer to them my time, my labor, my money, my talent, my influence, my family, my heart, my whole life's service in Friendship, Love and Truth. I am in the Order not only for the good I can get out of it; but also for the good I can put into it. Now, let me throw a little stone, but be careful, I have vowed to warn you of danger, or the approach thereof. Be cautious. Don't let anybody dodge, for if you do, this intelligent audience will think you guilty. Listen, there are some in the Order, who feel that the Order is good and high enough for them, but don't think this splendid Ruth good enough for their wives and daughters. Hear me sisters, is your Ruth good enough for your brother's wives and daughters? Brethren, we Sisters of Ruth, are after you, and we are coming, ready or no ready. Look out! And while I see before me so grand and magnificent an array of glittering pins, jewels, regalias, beautiful women and handsome men, I know that there are many passwords, signs, grips and tokens in your possession. But in conclusion, permit me to say: None of these make the true Odd Fellow, the true Naomi, nor Ruth. The true Patriarch. But this I mooch to your praise. You adorn most oceautifully this Grand Old Order made famous by our sainted Peter Ogden. If that heart beneath that pin and regalia throbts beneath that pin and regalia throbts out for your sister or brother "Increasing Affection." "If to you Friendship, Love and Truth are "Precious Jewels," "If loving kindness abounds in your every breast for humanity" in advancing the great cause of justice to mankind everywhere, "If they are gaining victories in the great battle of life and can cry: "Excelsior!" If the cry "Eureka" is not false, you True Odd Felows, True Inmates, and after all our faithful gleaming and reaping here, we shall shout the harvest home, and in the beautiful fields of Eden, in the Paradise of God; we shall clasp glad hands with our Patron Saints, Naom, Ruth, Israel, Jacob, Isaac and Abraham; and weave the endless bond of Friendship Love and Truth, of peace happiness and prosperity, of Innocence, Hope, Virtue, thio' the encircling years of God's blissful eternity. Let us give thanks for this day of golden opportunity. Swords and Scimitars The scimitar of the Saracens was the most effective sword for cutting purposes ever devised. It will be remembered how, according to the story of Sir Walter Scott's "Talisman," with such a weapon the pagan Saladin chopped a soft cushion in two at one blow, to the ammunition of Richard Coeur de Lion. With a straight sword one can make a hack or thrust, to slice an adversary one must saw with it. The scimitar, being curved and wide and heavy toward the end, slices by the mere fact of striking.

Chemically, the refuse of acetylene gas plants fs about the same as slack- ed lime, but it is worth about twice as much as the latter for sweetening soil. Stomach worms in sheep may be guarded against by keeping before them in low boxes, where they can get at it handily, a mixture of cheap to- bacco and salt .

If one wishes to keep any of the flowering bulbs for another season, it is well to let them stay in the pots in which they blossomed or in the ground until fall or until the tops are dead and dry. They should then be taken up, dried gradually,-but thoroughly, and be stored where they will keep dry. As a2 rule, the new bulbs which form on the roots of the tulips will be the larger in size and number if the plant is not allowed to blossom. ‘The two English pens of White Leg- horns entered in the Connecticut in- ternational egg laying contest still maintain their lead, Thomas Barron's pen having 466 eggs to thelr credit and Edward Cam’s pen having 2 score of 425 eggs.

The Russian thistle, which some years ago was dreaded almost as much as, the Canuda thistle or quack ‘rass, Is not fulfilling the farmer's fears. Dx- periments which huve been conducted Slong thé line of exterminating the weed show that it can be easily killed by frequent tillage. If the earth in which the sweet peas were sown was not as rich as it should have been this condition may be over- come by giving the peas several water- ings when they are coming up and afterward with manure water. ‘This will be available at once and will make them rank and thrifty. The other day the writer noted a news item which stated that a farmer dad trapped or shot a silver gray fos and boped to be able to dig out her whelps. This item seems to have been written in ignorance of the fact that the silver gray fox Js a sport of na- ture and not a distinet type whieh reproduces its kind. . There is probably no way in which an adventurer can get rid of more money in x shorter time’ than by 50- ing into the poultry business on a large scale when he bas had no ex- perience. Fortunes have been sunk in just this way, but there is always a new batch of suckers who feel sure that they can play the game success- fully. To have the supply of sweet corn cover a long catipg period it should be planted a row $r two at a time at intervals of every ‘ten days. The first planting should be of the early varie- ties and Inter the larger kinds We have found no varieties better than the Golden Bantam, Country Gentleman and Evergreen for early, medium and late varicties. Inasmuch as potatoes have a feeding yalue when cooked of but one-fifth that of corn, it follows that they make a rather espensive ration If they are worth more than 12 or 15 cents a bushel. For illustration, if corn were worth 60 cents a bushe! potatoes would be worth but 12; hence if one could get 15 cents per bushel for the praties it would be better te sell them. A convenient way for handling the little plants of several kinds of gar- den fruits and vegetables is to set them at the time of the first trans- planting in small cans ‘without bot- toms or in little boxes made of paste- board. When the plants are ready to transfer from these the container may be removed and the plant with its vigorous roots set in the open ground. ‘The serum treatment for hog cholera has been tested out so thoroughly that there is now little question that, prop- erly and carefully applied, it provides an effective cure. At present the treat- ment costs a trifle more than a dollar for a grown hog, but there fs’ reason to believe that the cost of the treat- ment will be reduced somewhat as the capacity of laboratories producing the serum is increased. There has been more than one law- sult tried over tll question whether a tenant bad the right to remove the ma- nure which accumulated on the place during his tenancy. The rule or com- mon law usually followed in the mat- ter is that the tenant has the right to remore such proportion of the manure as the feeds which are bought and con- sumed on the farm bear to those which ‘were grown on the:place. A whole lot of grief for the gardener fn the coming weeks may be avoided if be will remember to wrap the stems of the cabbage, tomiato and other plants which he sets out in the garden with paper. ‘This will prevent inroads of the cutworm, a pest that for the past two or three years has been most destructive. Putting potsoned sprays of clover or alfalfa along the rows of vegetables in the evening is also a help, as the worms do most of their work in the darkness. Farming experience in the dry coun- try is bringing out some interesting and helpful facts. One of these is that harrowing wheat following rains, even after it has reached a height of twelve to fourteen Inches, materially increases the yield. Another is that the scatter- ing of straw at the rate of two tons per acre over the seeding of winter wheat early in December, just after the ground has frozen, has resulted in a Jleld of twenty to thirty bushels per acre the following season, while tracts where the wheat plants were left ex- posed to the weather yielded practical- ly nothing. An experiment that was made last year in the village of Miltonvale, Kan., is worth copying by others, Briefly the scheme referred to was a co-ep- erative silo, which was built jointly by six owners of single family cows. ‘These householders, who prized fresh milk, but despaired of getting it without using silage as a ration, hit upon the plan of joining bands in the enterprise. This was carried out, and a silo 12 by 26 feet was built and corn from a nearby ficld bought to fill it ‘The backers of the enterprise after one sea- son’s experience beliere they have solved the feed problem for the dairy cow so far as they are concerned. This year they plan to co-operate in the growing of the corn they veed for sl- lage purposes. Why {isn’t this plan good for other folks? ABOUT M@ON SIGNS. ‘A reader vf this department who Hives near Springfield, [i., writes mak- ing inquiry as to whetber the moou has any influence on crops—that is, whetb- er root crops will do better if planted in the dark of the mooy and if those which mature theif fruit above ground are platted in the light of the moon. Our friend says that, while most of his neighbors believe to a greater or less extent in these moon sighs, he himself does not have much faith in them, con- sidering them as merely a matter of superstition. The writer is willing to confess that his early education may have been neglected. but he bas never had a particle of faith in moon. signs or long distance weather prophets. He would classify both of them as mete- orological fakes.. At the same time he realizes that so harsh a classification may offend the feelings of a good muny sincere people. The belief in moon signs, if it cam be sald to have any scientific basis at all, seems to be traceable to the influence or “pull” which the moon has upon the water of the -carth's surface, especially ss shown In ‘the spring tides, which oc- cur when the moon fs full. Again, it may be traced to the supposition that inasmuch as light encourages vegeta- tion moonshine would have some ef- fect on the growth of that portion of Plants that appeared above ground. But we are inclined to think that this is mostly moonshine. The fact is the big potato growers of the country pay no attention whatever to the moon or its phases, They plant their seed when they set their land ready and when the season is sulliclently advanced. + To satisfy himself first hand on this point we would “suggest that our correspond- ent plant some potatoes, for instance, in both the light and dark of the moon and keep track of the yleld next fall. If he notes results that prove anything to him we would be glad to report his findings in these notes: QN EASY THING TO DO. It is not a difficult imatter to ascertain what the cows are doing’in the way of milk and butter fat production. The Orst’ requisite is a small sized Babcock testing outfit, which can be got for $4 or less. While in the making of an absolutely correct test for révord pur- poses it is customary to weigh and test the butter fat content of both milkings each day, for ordinary purposes this fs not necessary. If the milk is weighed night and morning one day each month duting the-milking period it fs sufi- cient. Samples of the milking should be tested for butter fat, directions be- ing furnished with the testing outét. Multiplying the amount of milk as well as Its butter fat Content for one day by the nuinber of days in the months gives approximately the: production for the month. The same procedure sliould be followed once each month while the cows are in milk. To get at the cost of the cow’s bill of fare one should weigh and estimate the cost of the feed consumed on the day of the test, and multiplying this by the days in the month will give what the feed for the month has cost, Following the same plan for the other months will enable one to ascertain what the feed bill for the year amounts to. With means of making a cow census for one- self as simple as this, there would seem to be no reason for farmers keeping cows around that will not pay for their board. A SENSIBLE BOY. ‘The writer has lately recelyed ap inquiry from a young man—a friend— ‘in a large clty who would like a posi- tion with an intelligent and progres- sive farmer during the coming sum- mer vacation. Our friend, who Is strong and vigorous and willing to work, seemingly feels that, entirely aside from what he may recelve-in wages, the experience which he will gét during the summer, coupled with the wholesome outdoor life, will be well worth while, and we are inclined to take the same view. It would be a godsend to thousdhds of city lads if they would plan to do just as this young man fs expecting to do, and this is especially true of those who are none too robust. The summer’s work would give them lame backs and arms, but would also cultivate Tagesions appée- tites and would harden their muscles and tone up their whole system. Be sides, it would give them insight Into one of the important vocations of life —one, by the way, that Is bound to be- come more and more Important as the years go by.

Robbins of the Colorado Ag- ricultural college in a recent article contributed to an agricultural paper gives some simple directions for de- tecting edible mushrooms from those ‘that are poisonous. Ie classes as pol- sonous musbruoms those that (1) have white gills, (2) that have a ring:on the stem just beneath the cap and (8) that have a cup or scales at the base of the stem. He further says that one may feel perfectly safe in cating any mush- room that has black gills and dis- solves with age into an inky mass, though it should be eaten before this change takes place. Among the black gilled mushrooms he includes those with a “shaggy mane,” with a more or less kell shaped and creamy white cap and the “inky cap” variety, which grows in, ise clusters. The puff balls are also edible if eaten when the flesh is white and solid. fp) ER RRS DESC EIRI EO ESSCSEIEOD QD PICTURE “FRAMES ns We tnuke a specizlty of framing diplomas, marriage " !
