VOLUME XXX LARGE CROWD AT RACES YESTERDAY LARGE CROWD AT RACES YESTERDAY PRIZES TO BE AWARDED NEXT FRIDAY All Prize Winners Expected to be at Theatre at 5 o'clock—Ticket Contest Closes Wednesday Noon. One of the most successful events ever held here was that of yesterday which was staged, at the baseball park by the Negro school children. The attendance was the largest in the history of the meets held here and the spirit of the rivalry manifested by the schools was by far the greatest ever seen here. The prizes for the successful competitors will be awarded at the Pekin theatre next Friday afternoon at 5 o'clock. The theatre orchestra has kindly offered its services for the afternoon and a pleasant time is anticipated by the many school children who will be present. Admission will be free. The ticket selling contest will be close at noon Wednesday. All schools which had contestants in this feature of the races must report by the above time to Mr. J. C. Lindsay, second floor of the Williams building, 509 West Broad street. ATLANTA UNIVERSITY NOTES Atlanta, Ga.—At the coming commencement the Atlanta University Conference will celebrate its twentieth anniversary. It will be largely in the nature of a review of the work accomplished in these twenty years. The annual publications of the conference are coming into wider and wider circulation, and they are to be found in all the large libraries of America and Europe. The senior class play is progressing satisfactorily, and it will be an undoubted success. The play this year is "Damon and Pythias". The course of lectures on business, law and ethics, given by by Mr. Philip Weltner of the Atlanta bar before the students of Atlanta University and Morehouse College has just been completed. They have, been of great interest and profit to all who heard them. They were given under the auspices of the Phelps-Stokes fund. On last Saturday, May 1st almost 300 children of Atlanta public school took the exams for admission to Atlanta University. The University will be greatly taxed to provide for this large number due to the cutting off of the eighth grade of the city schools. The Atlanta University glee club repeated its annual concert on May 3rd, at Allen Temple in Atlanta. A large and enthusiastic audience enjoyed the concert. The annual lawn party was given at Atlanta University on May 4th and was greatly enjoyed by all the large number present. The last game of the season on the Atlanta University campus resulted in an easy victory for the Atlanta boys when they won over Clark University by a score of 14 to 1. Fowler and Jefferson divided the pitching for Atlanta. The game was too one sided to be interesting. A combination of long hits and errors netted six runs in the fifth inning. The hitting of Capt. Bell and Fowler was a feature. A number of substitutes were used in the latter part of the game by Atlanta. DARIEN, GA., NOTES Mr. Moses Howard has returned home, to the delight of his many friends.

The first game on April 30th was won by a score of 10 to S. Kennedy, the big twirler, did the flinging for Morehouse. He kept his opponents always in the rear and at all times proved himself to be the master of the situation. Morehouse hit Jones in every frame.

Norfolk Coats, Mannish Blouses and Tailored Skirts, First Esstntizss For Freedom and comfort ~ New York, May G—Caught in the thrall of the season’s first heat, which accounts for the sma¥t set's sudden departure, the great city turns ‘its thoughts to the country club and the stores disjilay trappings fir tennis, golf, tramping and riding to tempt those who may tarry in toivn and the few motor,in to do their shopping. So exacting is the mode of sports, that the time is long past that a wo- aman can appear on the tuft in baggy, illfitting clothes. ‘To-day-her attire be- speaks the smart tailor. Separate coats are particularly prominent. Straight in Norfolk style, o flaring at the lowe? cage, they are made of whitwhite chinchilla cloth, white wolen barred in black, covert cloth, chechs, tweeds, washable corduroy, awning striped linen and golf cord, the welt 8 silky rose and a stripe white. ; fh, ; “ | oN .

ZY J; the Norfollc Coat of Chinchilla Cloth and the Hat and shirt of Blue Linen A decided liking for the silk Jersey sweaters is also evident, the styles ne- inn in Jength, ranging from the reg- waatign model finished with a band at th neck to fancy sweaters with broad sashes and sailor collars... Plain colors, strives and bars are shown in these, rove, blue’ and purple being fa- vored barred or striped in white. Even rain coats have xained a few points in style, now appearing in at- tractive Scotch plaids and checks, rub- Lerized to withstand the water. Every detail of the costume is se lected with care. Conventions are far more strict concerning the blouse mi- lady weary agoulfing than with the dress she dons for an afternoon tea. Plaini¢-tailored, langysleeved waists, buttoned in the front fvith adjustable collars, sare considered “correct for country wear, “These are made in white, colored or striped linens, Fose aud green predominating; in some cases the stripe measures an inch in width. Oftentimes, the buttonholes are bound in a color to match the stripes ani the closing fastened like a cuff, with buttons of matching color linked together. On the tennis courts, middy blouses are still seen, their freedom ‘and com- fort having won the heart of the sports- women. One shop on the Avenue de- votes a sida window, tucked’ in be- tween twa marble pillars, to rackets balls, sports shoes and middies. The blouses, slashed in front and laced, have sailor collars and cuff-like hems; they are made of white linen, crepe ‘de Chine, wash silk and khak{ cloth, the fabric of the soldiers’ ‘uniforms, an attractive tan in color and with good wearing qualities. ~ While the whims of fashion are not ag a rule rigidly followed in the clothes for sport.wear, the added width in skirts is readily accepted. To be sure, skirts for walking, golf and tennis are not estreme, but: now measure from two and 2 half to three yar around the lower edge. Such fabrics as pique, plain and in novel stripes and bars, linen crash, khaki, teed and herring- bone mixtures are shown in these skirts, which are short and plain sare for a lap closing or patch pockets. Hats, too, have a swagger style. Panamas appear in every voncelyable| shape, from slouch to stiff sailor, with’ -Kknitted silk bands made like the knitted ties the men wear. ‘There are collapsible hemp straws and black felts faced in color, covenfent to tuck in the corien of a bag when leaving town ‘for a week-end. Broad-brimmed sailors of printed linen in two-toned effects and in matural linen faced with blue are also smart while rolling-brim- med sailors of grass straw in purple and white, and black and white lend variety to the styles; or you may have a bonny tam-o’-shanter loosely knitted in coarse silk jauntily tilted to one side, like the Scotchman wears on; the heath. * As in other seasons, the gloves are the heavy manish type of tan Jeather or white buckskin to protect the hand of the fair qearer, but belts are a\réal innivation, as they appear in brilliant stripes and checks, knitted to match the bands on the hats, or in black or colored leather finished with a large buckle at the front. Fancy shoes have grown so“common, it is small wonder sve find a few novel- ties among the models for sports wear, Perhaps the most Striking is a white buckskin tie with rnbber sole and stripings of green or red leather, which serve as trimming, as well as'a stay for the flexible buckskin, One house fs featuring a white buckskin shoe, the sole of white leather, treated is such af panner that it retains its white- ness inspite of the wear. These heel- less ties and. shoes aré shown for ten- nis, while walking ties and shoes have heels about an inch high? . Along with the other garments, rld- ing habits are receiving ¢nsiderable attention, The new trouses and leg- ging in one,, laced in front or buttoned at the side, is a style adopted by young girls, while older women favor the skirt, for country wear, finished with 2 lap seam front and back, with straps underneath for crosssaddle riding. Riding: coats show the conventional notch collar, close body and flaring ‘kirts,tand the habits are mad¢ in shipcord, covert cloth, tweed and kha- i cloth, while fan leather boots or eggings and ties are the approved node for dressing the feet, The tend- (sa ALTE } i NN {kl | i The Mode Cleverly Interpreted in a Linen Blouse and Pique Skirt for Sports Wear, the Waist Featuring the New Adjustable Collar. a . in hats seems to point to the mannish sailor with a faney band; gloves are the gauntlei and neckwear the stock,.usually pique ‘or duck, in = cases embroidered with large green: polka dots or gay purple fleur- dellis, if you chance to be an ally. It is interesting to note the studied carelessness gf the clothes of the wo- man who loves sport for sport's sake. ‘Two notables of New York society ap- peared ata golf club early in the season and I héatd an idler on the broad varanda remark as they took the bunkers that ther certainly knew how to wear thelr clothes. ‘The very sult- ability of the garments made them stylish, With her fair skin tanned a delicate brown, the first was a per- fect picture of what a robus American girl should be in her Norfolk coat of tan chinchilla, with blue Hnen skirt showing below, sailor hat of the same material, tan gloves and lov-heeled tles of tan leathe?. The other woman 2 trifle older, wore a white linen blouse with collar turn Jow, a striped pique ‘skirt with large patch pockets and a panama hat with{a checkered band of knitted silk that carried out the con- trast of her white buckskin shoes, stayed with black leather, aid her black leather belt. ‘There was nothing to hamper the freedom, not a surplus frill or button, but every detail of the costume showed the thought that had been! given their selection by the wo- men themselves. fs. || 1 aoe? i ET | FR Ro oct eae OI Co gM ees See ge Ee MMS BE Ae FS Best ae pay 38 Se Benet a BAAS Fe ns ae Ce knee Be Pee hee Ke BSR eS?

Temperance means the habitual moderation and control in the indulgences of the appetite and passion, or in other words, self-control. Temperance to-day is concerning the world as it has never before. All Europe, though involved in the greatest war known to history or to man, which is giving little or no time for things which do not concern the mighty struggle for supremacy, and yet each ruler, realizing the importance of temperance upon his success, is devoting much time devising plans to stamp out intemperance. Governors, statemen, churches and schools are joining hands in the movement to check the evils of intemperance. It is estimated that the price paid yearly in the United States for intoxicating drinks in dollars and cents is $1,752,000,000, saying nothing of the price paid in suffering, crime and death. The same company says the price paid for tobacco yearly is $1,200,000,000. The greatest of the tobacco 'evils, possible, is in the form of cigarottes. The excessive use of cigarettes (which is almost always true with boys) tends to have a demoralizing effect, as well as a marked physical effect. The evil indulgence in intoxicating drinks, I mean by this whiskey, brandy, wine and beer, along with cigarettes, seems to be more prevalent among our younger men and boys possibly than any other race. These evils have a tendency to increase immorality, crime, disease and death. I firmly believe if our young men, and I might say, some of our young women, were more temperate, crime disease, sickness, and death would not be half as great among us as a race, as it is at present. Among the first questions asked on a certificate of recommendation is, "Does the applicant drink?" or in other words, "Does the applicant indulge in intoxicating drinks?" Upon the answer of this question depends all the rest. If the answer is in the affirmative, all other good things, which might be said about him has but little effect. It is because the firms corporations and individuals, who have positions of trust and re-sponsibility to be filled are not willing, and just so, to trust the positions in the hands of persons who indulge in intoxicating drinks. Experience has taught these people that such persons are unreliable. it matters not what their qualifications may be under natural conditions. Another who is less qualified, but is temperate and is therefore reliable and trust-worthy, is chosen to fill the position that you feel you should have and would get if you were temperate. Intoxication, as a rule, is the beginning of almost all forms of intemperance. I want to say right here that society has never, nor never will do a greater injustice to itself than when it opens its doors to persons who are intolerate. It does not make any difference what degree of intelligence he or may possess if that person is intemperate he or she is a moral leopard. There are mothers, fathers, sisters and brothers whose hearts are bleeding as it were to-day, because of the invasion into the chastity and purity of their homes by the wolf, intemperance, who comes to them posing as a gentleman, possessing, seemingly, all the qualifications of refinement, and culture, and gentlemanship, but whose hearts are as black as the mid-night hours, whose morals are as low as purgatory. Indeed, it seems whose chief aim is to invade homes that are enjoying respectibility, peace and happiness. They will, at times, seek to destroy these homes at any cost. It is true that there are occasionally those who do not, as far as is known, indulge in intoxicating drinks and are yet intemperate in that they are immoral from start to finish. Their very presence is a danger signal of destruction to society. Such persons or characters should have no place among civilized people. They should be put and kept in confinement, and there watched as we would the ferocious beast of the forest. On the other hand the temperate young man is a blessing to society, an honor to his race, adding dignity to position and prosperity to business, society, church, state and indeed, the world to day is standing with outstretched hands to welcome temperate young men. To these young men honor, dignity and fame await. I want to appeal to you young men to-day, not as a preacher nor as a school professor, not as one who was born with a silver spoon in his mouth, in some large city of refinement, but as one who was born in abject poverty, amid the lonely country hills of Virginia, whose early life was filled with difficulties, deprived of parents by death, at the early age of six or seven, who served for ten or twelve years all but as a slave, deprived of home comforts, parental love, and worst of all of education. Finally leaving these environments seeking to better my condition, I sought to live in town. Hardly had I got in town than I found myself surrounded by the evil influence of intemperance. These new conditions caused me to look on with bewildement and by degrees I was being led into their sneers. About this time I came under the influence of of a devoted, Godly missionary teacher. It was she who told me of the pitfalls and gave me new inspiration, it was she who told me for the first time perhaps the dangers of intoxication and of the cigarette habit. It was then that I vowed to my maker that I would not allow these evils to master me or to cause me to become a slave to them, but on the other hand I would master them. I believe it was largely due to this christian missionary worker's advice and interest, that I am what I am today. As a result of my determination even those who indulged in intoxication respected and honored me. I want to appeal to you to-day to be temperate. If you are indulging in this monster intemperance, decide from to-day you will leave it off and be men. Do not sell your reputation here on earth, and at last your soul, for what the intemperate calls a good time, which only lasts for a moment as it were. Positions, homes, health and wealth await you if you will only be temperate in the true sense of the word. Will you not take this course while you are young, which will make of you men, honored, loved; and respected by all with whom you come in contact and know you? Lead that kind of life that will bring joy and consolation to mother and father in their declining days. Temperance will make of you leaders, worthy of emulation, husbands and fathers who will be a blessing to the home and community in which you live. Almost every family in these United States of ours has felt the fangs of the serpent of strong drink. Connected by blood, or by marriage, near or remote, is some one who has been made a ship-wreck upon the shoals of intemperance. Then why should we not write our names high upon the pinnacle of true temperance and insipite of environments live up to it. The future advancement of the race rests upon your, shoulders, young men, and in proportion as you frown down upon vice, crime and intemperance, just so you will prove yourselves equal to the task which rests upon you. Some of the things a barrel of whiskey contains, according to the poet are: A barrel of heallaches, of heartaches of woes; A barrel of curses, a barrel of blows. A barrel of sorrow for a loving, weary wife; A barrel of care, a barrel of strife. A barrel of unavailing regret; A barrel of curses, a barrel of debt. A barrel of hunger, of poison, of pain; A barrel of hopes, all blasted and vain. A barrel of poverty, ruin and blight; A barrel of tears that run in the night. A barrel of crime, a barrel of groans; A barrel of orphans' most pitiful moans: \ A barrel of serpents that hiss as you pass, That glow from the liquor in the bead of the glass. A barrel of falsehoods, a barrel of cries. That fall from the maniac's lips as he dies. Appropriate Ejaculation. "I have been digging for water on my place." "Well, well!"—Baltimore American APLE...PA GIVE ME THAT BUT YOU SCAMP! Nashville, Tenn., March 31, 1915 Loyalty to the United States and Stars and stripes, with expressiohs for the future welfare of ten millions of Negro people, was proclaimed by the National Negro Press Association at its last session in this city when the representatives from one hundred twenty six publications, through their organizations; issued an address to the American people. The facts concerning the address were given out by the corresponding secretary, Henry A Boyd, of this city, who states that his address was prepared by a committee consisting of C. V. Roman, chairman, Nashville; Tenn; W. E. King, of Dallas, Texas; Jos. L. Jones, of Cincinnati, Ohio; Emmett J. Scott, of Tuskegee Institute, Ala., and T. G. Stewart, of Wilberforce, Ohio. This document which made up the report of the committee says: "The National Negro Press Association in convention assembled, the representative of the constructive Afro-American Press of the country, takes this opportunity at its Mid-Winter meeting to consider the condition of the country, especially insofar as it concerns the Negro. "The student of history is alive to the fact that for the past fifty years the Afro-American element has been by law made a part of the citizenry of the republic. The National Negro Press Association recognizes the fairness of the letter of the organic law and believes that the pathetic and Christian-hearted white people of the country are in commendable degrees possessed of the spirit of the same: that there are many evidences everywhere covering every walk of life to show that this element is doing much to advance the civilization and progress of the Negro peoples. "In the fields of journalism we are gratified to bear witness to the growing liberality of a large element of the white press, and are further glad to be able to say that this liberality is not confined to any section of the country. "In the field of religious effort there has been no time when white Christians showed a higher respect for the great doctrine of the Fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of man than now, a significant result of which is that great material aid including monetary assistance is coming up to the help of the man and brother in his upward stride to a nobler and better manhood and womanhood. "In the field of education, we make haste to bear testimony to the great and growing philanthropy which is laying itself upon the educational altar of the race. There is unmistakable evidence that white America is coming to the unalterable opinion that the strength of the nation is not in its armies and navies, and embattled cities, but rather in the virtue and intelligence of the people. The law which made the colored man a citizen is being fully recognized; and far-seeing white statesmen and philanthropists, having in mind that the strength of the nation and the perpetuity of our institutions are dependent upon an intelligent selector and have enferred the Negro educational field to dispel the darkness caused by the lack of intelligence. "Thomas Jefferson said: 'Intelligence is the only safe foundation upon which free institution can rest.' Mr. Williams of Mississippi, quoted this sentiment approvingly, declaring in the same speech: "I can have brotherly love for a man without making him a part of my house. hold." With all of this we fully agree. We however, view with alarm the fact that while what we have said above is true to a large, growing and influential element of white people, scattered all over the country, there are thousands covering the same area, whose growing prejudice evinced in Jim crow laws, segregation, tactics manhood rights of the Negro challenge serious attention. We call specially upon those who are charged with the interpretation and enforcement of the law to attend its benefits without bias to us, to the end that the struggling millions of the colored race may continue to hope for that governmental encouragement which should be the heritage of the humblest American citizen. The strong need the restrictions of the law and the weak need its protection. When the former lose respect for the law and despise its restrictions, or the latter lose faith in its fairness and doubt the justice of its execution, then popular government is in danger. Such a crisis is now upon the nation. Kent is right: 'If law ceases, all worth of human life ceases also.' "Cultural unities make races and political unities make nations. The former may co-operate to form the latter without destroying or even endangering their own existence. The French of Quebec are still French in race, though British in nationality. We hold, therefore, that FITNESS and not RACE is the only safe test for citizenship if our country is to become in reality the 'Land of the Free, and the Home of the Brave.' As we can best serve the nation by faithful service to our own cultural unity, so the national welfare will be best promoted by the general acceptance of the good old Democratic doctrine of 'equal and exact justice to all and special privilege to none.' We give an undivided allegiance to the ideals of popular government, and call upon all Americans without regard to color creed, or sex, to rededicate themselves to the purpose for which the government was founded: 'ALL MEN UP AND NOT SOME MEN DOWN.' "We appreciate the growing liber- ality of the American press and wish to assure them that we will not disappoint them if they will only 'play us up', emphasizing our virtues and letting our vices go into the general cauldron of crime WITHOUT SPECIAL LABEL. "Applaud us when we run, console us when we fall, sheer us when we recover; but let us pass on—for God's sake, let us pass on!" The organization has been working for a number of years, having membership in every state in the Union and in many foreign countries. Melvin J. Chisum, of Okmulgee, Okla., supported by two executive committeemen from each state where the newspapers justify it. They are to hold their next executive committee meeting, in Boston, but the regular session is to be held in some centrally located place, like St. Paul, Mo., Louisville, Ky., Nashville, Tenn., or Cincinnati, O. This matter will be decided at the coming Boston meeting. Getting Ready. "I understand that Jack has been thrown over by no fewer than three girls he's been engaged to."

Saturday May 8th, 1915 EDITORIAL NOTES The politicians of the state have their ears to the ground anent the political activities of 1916. Last week we made mention of the desire to lengthen the term of the rural schools. This has already strouck a popular chord and if the proper steps are taken to reach the Board of Education, there is no doubt it will be done. Each year, in every community in the state, hundreds of young men become of voting age. Especial efforts should be made to reach these young men and induce them to become registered voters, thereby enjoying the privileges of full fledged citizens. This will be one of the most effective methods whereby the registration list may be increased. It is indeed a pleasure to deal with a body who is not of a "thin skin", and who will not take offense at the least innocent act or word. The accident that befell Prof. R. C. Bruce, assistant superintendent of the public schools of Washington, D. C., and his auto party is regretted. The ten thousand dollar suit against the St Louis. (Mo.) Argus, terminated with a verdict of one cent for the plintiff. The press gang will gladly raise the necessary amount to settle the verdict. If you are defamed let time vindicate you—silence is a thousand times better than explanation. Explanations do not explain. Let your life be its own excuse for being—cease all explanations and all apologies and just live your life. By minding your own business, you give others a chance to mind theirs; and depend upon it, the great souls will appreciate you for this very thing.—Selected. NEGRO BUSINESS LEAGUE WEEKLY LETTER By J. C. Lindsay In the Negro Business League's weekly letter, under date of May 1st, three subjects of great importance to the Negro as a whole were touched upon, for the purpose of again bringing to our attention the importance of each and every member of the race contributing his or her quota to our racial development wherever and whenever an opportunity presents itself. The subject in our last week's to which the attention of the reading public was briefly called, were these three essentials, namely, furniture, groceries and insurance. It may seem to some that the matter of furniture is of small consideration and to the man who is disposed to do such thinking we are not incline to raise a quarrel and fall out with him, as it is his privilege to think as he pleases. Some where in holy writ we have these words: "As a man thinketh so is he." Should you chance to come across a poor unfortunate member of the race who makes it his or her business to tell how fine the other fellow's business is and how inferior the business conducted by a poor struggling member of the race who is going up against great odds and facing daily trying and difficult problems, and who seems to delight in giving this kind of thing out to the world, then, cite this unfortunate person to the text just quoted which reads: "As a man thinketh so is he". For the man who really has no initiative, and feels that he himself is inferior, thinks that all others of the race are like himself. Groceries Again As we attempt to discuss this same topic the second time, we apologetically give herewith an incident which is said to have occurred with a certain pastor who made it his business to bring baptism by immersion into every sermon preached, regardless to his text: After having repeated himself some three or four times, on as many Sundays, an officer called the good pastor in question to ascertain him if it was not possible for him to preach something else other that baptism by immersion. To this the good pastor replied, that he would continue to preach baptism, and, too, from every text, matters not from where taken until every person who heard him preach had been baptized in the manner which he considered to be proper. The Negor Business League in its weekly letters, from time to time, does not wish to be understood as attempting to inflict its personal views upon any individual, but on the other hand, the men who compose this organization of race workers, know full well that all people, be they members of the Negro rac or what not, must eat to live. Assist Your Grocer One of the ways that we may assist our Negro men who are engaged in the grocery business in this community, is to call his attention in a friendly and helpful way to his needs and in short, to the general upkeep of his stock, which may be gradually running down for the lack of proper support which he has a perfect right to expect at the hands of his own kith and kin. Any first class Negro grocer will welcome helpful suggestions offered by the men and women who help to keep him in business. Every one likes to know that the groceries they come from a clean, well-lighted, well-ventilated, sanitary place, free from dust, cobb webs and the like. No Excuse for Dirty Conditions There may be offered plausible reasons for many of the stores and shops conducted by men of the race for not being so replete in stock as some of the stores and shops kept by the other fellow, but the Negro Business League falls to see any just reason why any member of the race, engaged in business should not keep his place clean, properly ventilated, well-lighted and attractive. One Man Succeeds where Another Fails Just here we have in mind certain places offered by men of the race, located in some of the finest localities, in close proximity to theatres and other such places where a large number of our people frequent and spend much of their means for such things as are carried in a restaurant and soda water business had to be lost to the race. Right upon this same spot another fellow has come and is now making elaborate, extensive as well as attractive preparation for the handling of this same trade that, the Negro business man once had a monoply on, and, now, now the Negro Business League serves notice on the reading public in advance, just simply sit up and take notice and see what kind of success the other fellow is going to have. Where Should the Blame be Placed Sometimes we put the blame on the wrong fellow. We put the blame sometimes on the other fellow, when we are wholy to blame. These together with kindred evils are the ones which the Negro Business League are striving to assist in eradicating by offering what ever assistance it can in any way or at any time to those who may feel in need of its help. Program changes each meeting night, come early and spend a profitable hour at the League's headquarters. SEA SIDE NEWS, BLUFFTON, S.C.

Mr. Sam Middleton went to Savannah on Wednesday morning at which place he will spend several days. LOCAL NEGRO BUSINESS LEAGUE Tuskegee Institute, Ala., April 27. The office of the Secretary of the National Negro Business League is in receipt of a report from the Local Negro Business League, at Muskogee, Oklahoma, in which is shown how progress and a most cordial relationship between the races may be secured through the influence of an active local League. A part of the report is as follows: "Our Clean-up Week Campaign was a great success. We held meetings in six of the colored churches every night during the week, at which lectures were given on the subject, 'The Conservation of Negro Health,' by competent physicians of both races. Through the courtesy of the School Board and the County and City Superintendent of Schools, a stereopticon was placed at our disposal and operated by Prof. C. B. Bryant, Inspector of Colored Schools, and Prof. E. N. Collette, county superintendent of schools. Lantern slide pictures showing how the fly spreads disease and how we may combat them were presented to crowded houses every night. "I and sending you circulars announcing the Southern Commercial Congress which will be held here from April 26th to 29th. The white business men are asking the colored citizens, through the local Negro Business League, to co-operate with them to make this meeting a success and we have donated about $150.00 dollars to the Finance Committee. "Our local League here is formulating plans for the establishment of a Carnegie Library. Prospects are good and you will hear more about the Library later." "Our League is co-operating with the Teachers-Patron club of this city to secure a playground for the colored children. "C. S. Jones, a member of our League, who recently resigned his position as letter carrier in the Post Office, has opened a glove and hoolery factory. "E. N. Guillory, Treasurer of our local League, in association with some other enterprising and representative business men of the race, has organized 'The Improved Order of Wise Men,' a fraternal organization with splendid insurance features. "Gilbert H. Ambrose, in association with S. E. Edwards and C. B. Paul, two graduates of the Tuskegee Institute, has organized the Exchange Insurance Association; The Association writes all kinds or insurance and their business is very prosperous. "J. B. Boddie, a laborer at the Cotton Compress in this city, has recently invented an improved steel cotton press. It is a labor saving device and those who have seen it predict a substantian income for Mr. Boddie." "Samuel D. Hooker, President." UNCLE SAN'S NAVY A rare treat is in store for readers of next Sunday's New York World in the way of a special "Navy Edition" of the Sunday World Eight-Page "World Pictures" Supplement, which is always printed on tinted paper and intensely interesting. Striking pictures of our great battleships, submarines, mammoth guns, our Admirals, etc., will be shown. This will be a section well worth keeping. And there will be plenty of other big features—every one a reason to order the Sunday World in advance.

The annual May Precession in St. Benedict's has been a big feature of our church events. The altar being dressed in red and white, the school children wearing white vells and wreaths on the heads and carrying baskets and bouquets of various fragrent flowers, gave to the precession a most religious appearance. Our confirmation class this year will be an unusually large one as more than 45 candidates will receive the sacrament of confirmation on Sunday May 16th at 8 p. m. Next Tuesday will be Ascension day a holy day of obligation. First mass at 6:30, second mass at 8 a. m., followed by benediction of the blessed sacrament. The annual Novena to the Holy Ghost starts on next Friday morning and ends on the eve of the feast of Pentecost. The Wage Earners Savings Bank G. S. I. C. DEFEATS FLA. BAPTIST By Isaac S. Lane On April 20th and 30th the Ga., State Industrial College baseball team defeated the Fla. Baptist College of Jacksonville, Fla., at the athletic park, at Savannah, Ga. The final score was 14 to 7 and 10 to 2 favor the former. The first game was a pitching battle between Capt. Lane and Williams in which the former had the better of the argument, holding the visitors to two scattered hits. Williams, the Floridians' spit-baller, fed the locals out of his hands up to the sixth when the Georgia slugger got to him for one run and in the seventh they registered three more. The real cannonading began in the eighth in which Williams was "yanked" after five scores were made on him in that inning. The feature of the game were the batting of Varandoe, Thompson, Stanley and the pitching of Capt. Lane, who showed his old time form.

Baptist College hitter eating out of his hands. Daniels had an easy time from start to finish striking out ten batsmen. In the first inning Wise was almost driven from the box by the heavy hitting Georgians. Three tripples, single and a sacrifice fly gave the Georgia boys four runs. The visitors put up a fine article of baseball until their defense was shattered to pieces by the State College hard hitters. The features of the game were the hittig of Varnadoe, Carter and Capt. Lane, who made one of the longest seen at the athletic park, a home run drive that carried to the center field fence. The final score was 14 to 7. SAVANNAH, GA.

One of the most enjoyable entertainments of the season was that given last Thursday evening by Mr. and Mrs. George W. Johnson in honor of their twenty-fifth wedding anniversary at their home on Park avenue west. The rooms were attractively decorated with cut flowers, palms and ferns. The palms arranged in a semi-circle in the parlor, marked the place where Mr. and Mrs. Johnson stood with their niece, Mrs. Paul Perry and little Miss Lula Bell Johnson, their grand daughter, while Prof Pearson of the Georgia State College offered the ceremonial prayer. Mrs. Johnson wore an exquisite gown of silver gray crepe de chine with cream dutchess lace and pearls. Mrs. Perry wore beautiful white chiffon over pink messaline. Many beautiful and attractive gowns were worn by the guests. Immediately after the ceremonial prayer delicious refreshments were served and a very pleasant and enjoyable evening was spent by all present. The younger set engaged in dancing until a late hour. The presents which were shown in the end room were numerous and included many valuable and handsome pieces of useful silver also many silver coins which were highly appreciated by Mr. and Mrs. Johnson from their many dear friends and relatives both in and out of the city. Receiving with Mr. and Mrs. Johnson were Mrs. Paul Perry, Mrs. Allie Clark and Mrs. Dr. Williams. In memory of my mother, Mrs. Elizabeth Wayne Simpson, who departed this life May 8th 1910. One by one earth's ties are broken, As we see our love decay; And the hopes so fondly cherished Brightened but to pass away. One by one our hopes grow brighter, As we near the shining shore; For we know across the river Wait the loved one gone before. Mrs. Pauline Stoney, daughter In sweet remembrance of my mother, Margaret Kennedy, who departed this life, May 6, 1914. Dear patient hands that toll so hard for me, At rest before me now I see them lying. They toiled so hard and yet we could not see That she was dying. If I could sit and hold those tired hands, And feel the warm life-blood within them beating, And gaze with her among the twilight band Some whispered word repeating, I think tonight that I would love her so. And I could tell my love to her so truly. Poor tired heart that had so many groans That death came all unheeded, o'er her creeping, How sad it is to sit here all alone; While she is sleeping. Dear heart and hands, so pulseless still and cold, How peacefully and dreamlessly she is sleeping. The spotless shroud about them silent fold And left me weeping. She is gone but not forgotten, Never will her memory fade; Loving thoughts will ever linger, Around the grave where she is laid. HER CHILDREN In loving memory of Sadie M. Pope Brister who departed this life May 2, 1812. In our minds your name is dear, We are thinking of you daily and the time which draws us near; Around your garve we often wander Thinking of you over younder, Tho we know that you are happy, Happy and we should not wonder, For our dear we love and cherished In our life time far and near. And when death shall read our summons. BLACKSHEAR DOTS Revivel at Scott's M. D. Church begins on the 13th of last month and is still going on. Twenty-five were converted. Rev.

At the early morning prayer meeting service, the pastor baptized 18 converts. At the 11 o'clock service he preached from Galations 6:7-8. He administered the communion in the afternoon, assisted by Rev. J. K. Butler and Rev. W. Bolivar Davis. Forty one persons were felledhip into the church and three infants were blessed. The pastor selected his text at the night service from Philippians 3rd chapter 13th and 14th verses. The day's collection exceeded any other regular collection in five or more years. At the 11 a.m. service on tomorrow the pastor will preach a special sermon to mothers, the day being nationally observed as Mothers Day. Dea. Chas.

The above question was asked by Charles Dickens. Do you suppose the postoffice clerks care to receive letters? I have my doubts. They get into a dreadful habit of indifference. A postman, I imagine, is quite callous. Conceive his delivering one to himself without being startled by a preliminary double knock! Penitence. "I suppose you're sorry now?" asked the prison visitor, according to the Philadelphia Ledger. The young man who had stolen $17,000 and spent it in sixteen weeks sighed through the bars. "Oh, yes!" he answered. "I tried to cut too much of a splurge. The money ought to have lasted me a week longer." The Blogest Cracker The "kasabi" torta (we get our word "tart" from torta) of Hispanic-America is the biggest regularly made cracker on earth. It is made from the kasabi root and lightly fired in cakes about the size of a small parasol. A cracker for a hat—such indeed is sometimes the use made by the Latin peons of the kasabi torta when needing a temporary sunshade (sombrero). The torta is always made bowl, shaped so it can be balanced on the head without any particular effort—and provided no wind interferes. Rain, however, quickly soaks and collapses this remarkable and useful edible headgear—London Express. She Didn't Say. If a Maori wishes to speak words of insu@ to another Maori he calls his adversary some kind of food. Any kind will do, living or dead. One Maori chief once told another that he was a roast veal. Then he died to the bush, hld in a cave, was tracked, captured and beheaded. The cave is still shown to visitors, and when Lord Kitchener was in New Zealand he was taken to it by a pretty Maori girl acting as guide. She told him the whole story, and, at the conclusion the stern soldier's face softened into a smile as he said: "Ah, then, I suppose it would be highly dangerous to call a Maori lady a little duck?" - London Mall. The noted Parisian dressmaker, Worth, owed his early success to the patronage of that famous personage of the third empire, Princess Pauline de Metternich, the wife of the Austrian ambassador to France. By her wit and numerous vagaries of dress and manner she created a sensation at the court of Napoleon III, and Eugenie. Therefore it was easy for Worth to become the most sought of the world's dressmakers when the princess approved his styles. Charles Worth, while so long the creator of French fashion, was an Englishman, born in Bourne, England, in 1825 and died in Paris in 1895.—Baltimore Star. Carpet Knights. "Carpet knights," quoth a writer once in the long ago, "are such as have studied law, physics or other arts of sciences, whereby they have become famous, and, seeing that they are not knighted as soldiers, they are not therefore to use the horseman's title or spurs. They are only termed simply miles and milites, 'knight,' or 'Knights of the Carpetry,' or 'Knights of the Green Cloth,' to distinguish them from those knights that are dubbed as soilders in the field."—Argonaut. 6 J.

The Mason who has taken the degree out of curiosity and after being accepted as a member never finds his way again to the lodge room and forgets what he has heard, but has not understood. The Mason who attends when an election is to take place, or when he can exhibit himself in a public procession, always pays his dues and demands to be buried with pomp and show, and the Mason who at his first inception begins to see the beauties of the Craft, and to understand its teachings, and who studies to know and serve his lodge with faithfulness. He pays every obligation, sustains his lodge, accepts every assignment of duty, and may be depended upon always, for his work. The first class never produces a-real Mason. The ceremonies meant nothing and can mean nothing. One wears the gilt button, but is unable to tell its meaning. The second class is a drag upon society. The recognition and benefits are demanded and the burdens are refused. The third class makes possible that progress without which the order would long ago have fallen into decay and been buried unknown in the great pyramids of the past. Like an individual every institution must go forward of perish. It cannot stand still—William Southern, Grand Orator Missouri. How are we obeying the lessons of Masoury? Are we living up to our obligations? We promise to love the whole human family, especially the brethren. We have promised to go out of our way, if necessary, to assist a needy brother, to help them all in their "lawful and laudable" undertakings," to sympathize with them in their distresses. If they are out of employment, that we will use just a little more effort to help the get a job than if they were not brothers. If a brother has a good situation or business we will do all we can to help him retain it. We will not try to supplant him. We will not use undue "influence" to put ourselves in his place. We will not try by insinuation to injure his reputation, and by a shrug of the shoulders, a wink of the eye or "If I only would, I could" to rise above him. That is what we as Masons promise to do. Do we do it? Am I treating my "brother" as I would like him to treat me? Have I been open and frank with him, and have I warmed him of approaching danger? Have I tried to pull him down so that I might get up? Have I been Mason in practice or only in protense? When I saw a brother approaching, against whom I knew some brother was conniving, did I cross over on the other side so as to avoid him? Did I tell him of the efforts making against him? Have I shut up my bowels of compassion and said, "go thy way, be thy warmed and clothed," but held firmly to the purse strings and refused needed aid? Is this Masonry? If all Masons were Masons, Masonry would be better. But there are too many Masons, and far too few Masons. Official position sets a man high above his fellows sometimes, and he loses his Masonry in his autocracy. Selected. In Chicago recently one lodge conferred the M. M. degree on one of the city firemen with all the stations filled by his brother firemen. Then another lodge had a meeting with all taking part, including the candidate, being policemen.—Square and Compass. The Masonic Standard says: It has been demonstrated repeatedly that the Mason who is too good to begin at the bottom of the ladder is not good enough to reach the top. Courage for the great sorrows of life, and patients for the small ones; and then, when you have accomplished your daily task, go to sleep in peace. God is awake.—Victor Hugo. DIVERSIFICATION OF CROPS. Diversification of crops has been agitated so much in the south that its importance in northern states has been overlooked. Farm surveys show, however, that the farms in the north yielding the highest net profit are those that have a variety of sources of cash income. In a profitable section of central New York we find that most farmers produce hay, potatoes, cabbage, beans, fruit and some live stock for sale. This winter potatoes, fruit and cabbage have all been low, in price, but because of their variety of products these farmers have been insured against total failure. The coming year or two is certain to be a period of fluctuating prices. Everything points at present to high prices for such staples as wheat, pork and beef, but there is no assurance that there will be any substantial improvement in the prices of potatoes, vegetables or fruit. Therefore it will be only an expression of foresightedness for the farmer to throw out a little anchor to windward in the form of a few acres of a staple that has a good local demand. Specialities are a good thing in the long run, and the fellow who has two or three is going to be the one who will bridge the periods of price depression.—Country Gentleman. MAKING ACID PHOSPHATE Importance of the Product In the Fertilizer Industry. [Prepared by United States department of agriculture.] The manufacture of acid phosphate has come to play such an important part in the fertilizer industry of the United States that the department of agriculture has just, issued a bulletin on the subject which is designed both for manufacturers and for progressive farmers. Phosphate rock, it is said, has almost entirely displaced bone, guano and apatite as a source of phosphoric acid, and a knowledge of the exact composition of the rock is of importance, because not only the phosphate of lime but all the impurities as well are acted on by the sulphuric acid used as a reagent and influence the finished product. Of all the impurities occurring in phosphate rock compounds of iron and aluminium are the most dreaded. Even in small quantities these elements are apt to cause a certain amount of reversion and in large quantities may render the product sticky and unfit for use. By careful handling, however, phosphate high in iron and aluminium compounds may be made to produce high grade acid phosphate. On the other hand, carbonate of lime is desirable when the quantity is not excessive. Doth the "den" and the "open dump" systems are in general use for making acid phosphate, each having certain advantages. In the "den" system after the rock and sulphuric acid are thoroughly mixed the compound is dropped into a closed brick tined chamber or "den," where the chemical reaction raise the temperature to a high point and are completed in twenty-tour hours or so, the product being then ready for shipment. In the "open dump" system, as the name implies, the mixture of acid and rock is dumped on an open pile and may require a month or even longer to become fit for use. The fumes given off in the process, moreover, may become a serious nuisance in the vicinity of towns. On the other hand, the removal of the acid phosphate from the den is troublesome and when done by hand sometimes dangerous. The cost of producing acid phosphate, the bulletin says, depends on a number of varying factors, such as the size, location and equipment of the plant and the cost of sulphuric acid. Exclusive of office expenses it may be said to range from $6.20 to $8 a ton. The product is sold on the basis of its so called available phosphoric acid content and is worth at the factory from 40 to 56 cents a unit, or twenty pounds. The phosphoric acid content runs from 14 to 21 per cent of the marketed product. He Certainly Helps. Frequently a woman is accused of making a fool of a man when, if the truth were known, the woman, nine times out of ten, merely furnishes the opportunity; he completes the job. Florida Times-Union. Farm and Garden ```markdown ``` Cold Frames Are a Means of Keeping Green Stuff on the Table. Hotbeds are in very general use among all farm gardeners, but the cold frame as a means of keeping green stuff on the tables is much neglected, says a writer in the Farm Progress. Cold frames are no more difficult to construct and but little harder to operate than the hotbed. Their uses are many, one of the most practical being in connection with a hotbed in the starting and taking off of the young tomato plants in the early spring. The cold frame is in general use among all market gardeners who are anxious to put their products on the market early in the spring and keep them there until late in the fall. Built like a hotbed in nearly all essentials, it takes the plants after they ```markdown ``` A COLD FRAME have come from the heated atmosphere of the hotbed and hardens them to a lower and more nearly normal temperature. The framework of the cold frame is practically the same as that used for the hotbed, but it is placed on well manured soil instead of above a bed of heating manure. Neither the hotbed nor the cold frame should ever be made more than six feet in width, because of the difficulty in working with the plants when the beds or frames are wider. It may be made long enough to accommodate all the plants necessary. It is best to use a plank at least a foot wide for the side of the cold frame that is on the north of the bed. Some make this side of the bed eighteen inches in height, as this gives more of a slope toward the eight inch plank running along the south side of the frame. Place the cold frame on the sheltered side of some building or in the angle formed by a high fence tightly planked. The sun should be permitted to reach it most all day, but some care will have to be taken in regard to this, as direct sunlight beating down through the glass sashes over the frame may beat the atmosphere under the glass to a point that will hurt the young plants. The beds are covered with the same type of glass sashes used on hotbeds. The size that is just six feet in length and three feet in width is the best. The six foot sash length covers the width of the bed nicely, and the three foot width insures a sash that is not too heavy to handle or very likely to be broken. Strips are milled across the width of the bed to keep the sashes in place; and these are so arranged that the sashes can be slipped up and down across the bed with ease. The cost of a cold frame is very little. The most expensive feature of the undertaking is the glass sashes, and where there are some old buildings about the place the gardener can sometimes find enough old window gashes to cover the cold frame. Little or no digging is necessary, and a few feet of scrap lumber will make the frame. Old lumber is just as satisfactory as new stuff from the mill.

Easier Way to Lay Flooring. Laying a floor has always been a hard job for me if the lumber was warped. But I have just completed a corn crib in which I used the cant hook for forcing the flooring into place, and I was surprised at the ease with which the work was done. In do- ing it the chain was anchored to a window sill or studding. The handle of the cant hook was placed against a flooring board and the hook caught into a link of the chain. The handle was pulled, back, forcing the boards into place. When doing this a block should be placed between the hook on the chain and the window sill and also between the cant hook handle and the flooring.—Correspondent of Missouri Valley Farmer. Cowpeas and Corn. Cowpeas are a good crop to precede corn because they provide nitrogen, which is much needed by the corn. The First Postage Stamp. The first Postage Stamp. The black penny postage stamp of 1840, the first stamp ever issued, was distinctly unpopular and gave place to a red one after a year's existence. Great Britain was the first country in the world to use postage stamps, and the English schoolboy of the period seems to have regarded them as a nuisance rather than a national benefit. "Have you tried the stamps yet?" wrote one of them to his sister in the year 1840. "I think they are very absurd and troublesome. I don't fancy making my mouth a glue pot, although, to be sure, you have the satisfaction of kissing the back of her gracious majesty the queen."—London Tit-Bits.

See that the shrubberry or perennial border does not become bare during the early thaws. It is a good plan to scatter straw or even manure over it. Sun scald on apple and smooth barked ornamental trees may be prevented by shading the trunk with corn fodder, boards or paper. Now is the time to place such protectors. Do not set seed flats directly on manure in a hotbed. There should be three or four inches of soil to absorb the odor and steam from the manure. One of the quickest growing dwarf annuals is sweet alysum. Sow the seeds as soon as the ground can be worked in spring and you will be repaid with an abundance of snowy white, sweet scented flowers.-Leroy Cady, University Farm, St. Paul.

THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES. Text of the Lesson, I Sam. xxvi, 5-16, Memory Verses, 11, 12—Golden Text, Luke vi, 27—Commentary Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns. The lesson today is a record of one of the occasions on which David had Saul completely at his mercy, but he refused to lay hands upon him, or to listen to the suggestion of Abishal that David, would permit him to smite Saul, for he said, "As the Lord liveth, the Lord shall smite him, or his day shall come to die, or he shall descend into battle and perish" (verses 9, 10). Thus David left the matter wholly in the hands of the Lord, illustrating his own words, "Commit thy way unto the Lord; trust also in Him, and He shall bring it to pass" (Ps. xxxvii, 5). I Sam. xxxi tells how his end came. You should look as well going as goming. Notice the heel of your shoes, when the heels are twisted they will throw your shoes out of shape, which makes a bad appearance when going. In repairing your shoes we make it our special business to restore them to their original shape, no matter how bad they are twisted. Ladies and children shoes are given special attention. All work is carefully looked after by me before going out. On this occasion David took the spear and the crusse of water, from Saul's bolster that he might show him how he had him in his power, but did not harm him. David was able to do this without any one knowing it because a deep sleep from the Lord was fallen upon Saul and his men (verses 11, 12). Compare Gen. II, 21; xv, 12, and consider Peter's release from prison, though he was bound with chains between two soldiers, and there was a guard at the door of the prison (Acts xi, 10-18, 18, 19). Truly the God of Israel is the God that does best wonders (Ps. ixvll, 18; ixxvll, 14). David, with his trophies, stood on the top of a hill afar off and cried to Abner that, though he was a valiant man, he was worthy to die because he had failed to take care of the king, and he told him to look for the king's spear and crusse of water that had been by his bolster (verses 13-16). -WHOLESALE AND RETAIL Fruit and Commission Merchant 303 ST. JULIAN WEST AND 23 JEFFERSON ST "Saul knew David's voice and professed to be very grateful to him for sparing his life, asking him to return to him, and saying that he would no more seek to do him harm, but David knew his enemy too well, and after telling him to send for his spear, they again parted, each going his own way (verses 17-25). This was not the first time that David had Saul in his power, but refused to harm him. See in chapter xxiv how he cut off the skirt of Saul's robe and how Saul then professed penitence and good will and spoke of David's being king some day. Thus Saul sought him every day, but God delivered him not into his hand (xxill, 14). In the end of chapter xxill there is the record of an incident that looked like a close call for David, but Saul was suddenly called off and David escaped. All through the story we can hear David saying: "The Lord is the strength of my life. Of whom shall I be afraid?" (Ps. xxill, 13.) Is the Home of Sweets. Phone 293 CALL, WRITE OR PHONE EAST GWINNETT ST, & ATLANTIC AVENUE Phone 4941 Savannah, Georgia The cave of Aduliam story in chapter xxil is full of interest, beginning with his seeking a place of safety for his father and his mother till he could know what. God would do for him and ending with his words of comfort to Abjathar: "Abide thou with me. Fear not, for he that seeketh my life seeketh thy life, but with me thou shalt be in safeguard." Chapter xxv tells of the death and burial of Samuel and then the story of drunken Nabal and his beautiful wife Abigail—beautiful in wise counsel to David and in her conduct toward him. Some of her memorable words are ever with me: "Bound in the bundle of life with the Lord thy God" (xxy, 29), a bundle which cannot be broken, for those to whom He gives eternal life can never perish (John x, 28). Chapters xxvil, xxix, xxx, tell the story of Zilak, which Aebhil gave to David, but to which David returned on one occasion to find the town in ruins and the wives, sons and daughters of himself and his 600 followers all gone into captivity. That was one of the most trying times in all David's experience, and they all wept until they had no more power to weep. The grief of David, almost beyond endurance, was heaped up by the threat of his 600 followers to stone him, as if he was the cause of all this, so that David seemed, as far as human sympathy was concerned, to be absolutely alone. Then we read the words which have helped so many, "David encouraged himself in the Lord his God" (xxx, 6).

The way that David found the enemy, the Amalekites, through the guidance of an almost dead Egyptian servant, whom he restored to life, and how he recovered all—wives, sons, daughters, spoll, nothing lacking to any, and much additional spoll—is a very thrilling record and should encourage us all to wait on the Lord and not to think anything too hard for Him. There were 200 of David's men too weak to join in the pursuit of the enemy, but they, too, shared in the spoils of victory, and David made it a law that those who tarry by the stuff shall share equally with those who go forth to battle (xxx, 10, 24). Let all homekeepers be encouraged. The sin of Saul in the matter of familiar spirits and the witch of Endor is recorded in chapter xvill. This is a prevailing sin of many today. It is wholly of the devil and is strictly forbidden in Deut. xvill. 0-12. It is not all trickery, but oftimes some real work of the adversary. The living, those who are truly saved, should seek only the living God and His life giving word. All else is from the death, and it will be a night of awful darkness forever for all who turn away from the Word of God. "No morning for them" (Isa. vill. 19, 20; margin and R. V.).

THE, YOUNG POULTRY In caring for young poultry stock in winter 1 try to give it enough room in which to develop and then feed tt more liberally than other fowls, writes W. J. Boyton In the American Agricultar- ist. Overcrowding {s one of the grav- est dangers to guard against. It Is a natural desire to keep as much younk poultry as possible, especially the fowls which were hatched late and are still gaining in weight, but if this course 1s pursued at the expense of overcrowding trouble ts apt to follow. There are two methods of handling pullets—one, so as to get eggs in win- ter; the other, so that by feeding they will be in One laying condition the fol- lowing spring. In keeping pure bred stock I find it the best plan to use the latter method because where eggs are acarce,in winter they will batch better the following spring, and also they are obtainable in greater numbers at .the time of high prices for hatching pur- poses. 7: Where winter eggs are to be pro- Guced It is necessary that the pullets are hatched early in the previous spring. ‘This‘means a smaller percent- age of chicks hatched, as at that time the eggs show less vitality. I havealso found it more difficult to raise the chicks. As eggs command the best price in the spring, that they do not batch well means a greater cost for each chick. Although these pullets will lay in winter when egzs command the highest price for market purposed, it will still be necessary to furnish Proper food und care. Even then some fnay put on flesh instead of producing eggs. I find that the best food is whole grain, meat scraps and green food. It é . s As =) a . (ES .

With pure bred poul- try I find it advantageous to keep sev- eral of the best cockerels until spring, when they can be sold to advantage as breeders, This, however, would not do it raixed breed fowle were kept. ‘The Purpose of the keeper must be borne in mind when ‘managing a flock of young poultry stock in winter. Chieten Necsssartes: ‘When chickens are confined to their pens for any length of time, there Are three things that are necessary for thelr well being, and these things are often inaccessible to them. They are pure water, sharp grit and a dust bath. We all know that fowls must have wa- ter to keep them alive. They need grit in order to grind their food and keep healthy. They need a dust bath in or. der to keep themselves free from lice and multes. Give the Hens Room. If the poultry pens are connected and one or more is empty this "7inter don't fail to allow the hens in the adjoining house to have access to the unoccupied rodm.

Proper Housing and Dry Bede Indis- pensable to Good Growth. ° ‘One of the most important points in feeding in cold weather fs providing ample housing places and seeing that they are on high and dry ground. writes 2 correspondent of the Amert- can Cultivator. In rainy:weather the ‘bedding should be removed several times a week and replaced with dry material A severe winter will con- vince thé o¥serting man®who cares for live stock that proper housing’ means not only a saving of high priced feed- ing material, bat also more flesh for the feed consumed.

Another factor in properly caring for ‘winter hog feeding is having a dry and sanitary feeding place. Many farmers in recent years have provided cement floors in their hog lots and sheds. This means of sanitation 1s one of the greatest hedith promoters and devices for economy that fs used thus far when actual cost of building is taken into consideration. Many who feed their swine in dirty, insanitary, mud floored hog lots are wasting feed daily and endangering the health of the hogs as ‘well. Tho amount of grain saved alone in the cours of one year would easily pay for one of those concrete floors in many cases. The feeder can take an ordinary corn shovel and clean the cobs and dirt off once daily in ten minutes, and in the same ten minutes he is saving a large amount of feed and preserting the health of the hogs. Hogs fed under these circumstances are more healthy, thrifty and better for the owner's meat and marketing Purposes by 50 per cent than being Poorly housed and having insanitary fecding trouzhs and pens FEEDING BEEF STEERS. Experiments Show That Young Ani; mals Make Economicaf Gains. + Accordins tv, Professor H. R. Smith. Liberal fewdins of a steer from, the time he {s twelve months old until fests twenty-four months old will result "i & min of practically two pounds per day, says the Iowa Homestead. If he 4s carried for another year thiso@Mi will be reduced t6 a pound and threé quarters per day, and the following Year itrwill take Mberal feeding to make a pound and a half daily. This means that the largest gains are made early in life. and St follows that these gains will be made cheaper because the cost of maintenance is lower. In emphasizing the matter of cheapness of cost of feeding young animals Pro- fessor Smith refers to six different trials where accurate records were kept. showing that during the first twelve months of a beef animal's life a bundred pounds of increase in welght cost $3.45, the second twelve months the same animals cost’ $7 42 per hundred pounds, while the third twelve months ft rai up to $11.50 per hundred pounds. In the Nght of these figures it can be well understood why the early matur- ing animal {s increasing in popularity. particularly with those feeders who raise their own cattle. It must be re- membered that all steers are not of 2 type to finish up at an early age, be- cause incrense in weight is in the form of growth rather than the form of flesh. It ts all n question of type, some types being ready for the block almost any time after they have acquired their calf fat, while others reach prime conditions only at maturity or there- abouts. “Wien corn belt cattlemen set- tle down to a policy of raising the-cat. tle that are fed out in the feed lot then and then only willthe reai meritof the early maturing type be appreciated. Lice Infested Horses. There is no use of treating horves to, destroy lice unless you cleanse, dis- infect. fumizate and, whitewash the stable and have It light and perfectly fonttiates.

FEED THE COLTS A LIBERAL RATION | The high cost of Keeping horses s often a temptation to feed colts espe- clally in a.very poor and cheap manner during the winter, says the Kansas Farmer. In this effort to cheapen ‘the cost of keeping horses and colts some farmers try to carry the young colts through the winter on straw, corn fod- der and other low grade feeds of this character. This is a “penny wise and pound foolish” policy. Young colts fed in this way are stunted at the most important point of lMfe. They never overcome the results of this period of hardship, and when ready for market they sell fo. from $25 to $75 less than colts with no better breeding but which have received en abundance of grow- ing feed during the first three years of their lives. The market continues to demand big horses of proper type and conforms- tion, and the only way to produce them 4s to supply an abundance of feed dur- ing the critical period of the colt's life. ‘With the same thought of cheapening the cost of keeping horses there is a temptation, when the working season is over, which usually finds the horses thin in flesh, to turn them out on poor fall pastures. With this treatment working horses may go into the winter even thinner in flesh than when the season of hard work ended. The sav- ingtof feed and expense at this period of the year must be paid back during the spring season with interest. The work horse should ‘be so fed and han fins 2 ‘Aa : ed ie. ° ; f | oY See SR ayaa ee The tarmer who does not have a large proportion of brpod mares among his horses is not getting all Out of his farm that he should.

Whenever alfalfa {s grown the pasturing of the work horses on the alfalfa meadows during the fall and early winter sea- son puts them in most excellent condi- tion for the winter. Where horses go into the winter in good condition ft ts much easier to keep them thrifty, and as spring approaches it will cost less to harden them and prepare them for the work of the spring and summer season. Impaction of Sheep. Sheep must have a laxatixe or suc- eulent feed to regulate the bowels in winter. Keep them out of the stalk field and off frozen meadow and feed clover or ulfaifa bay, a mixture of whole oats, wheat bran and ollmecl, and, if possible, gize them roots or si- lage twice daily. ,Tivo pounds of either roots or silage for each sheep will suffice, For bloat give a pint of new warm milk from a cow and repeat in half hour if necessary. Make the sheep take plenty of exercise every day~and keep them dry. a, ae Sows can be made to produce two litters a year. When this is desired they should be bred at the first period of heat after the pigs are weaned. Sows bred twice a sear will, not, pro- duce so many pigs in each Itter as when bred only ouce a year, but more pigs should be raised in a year from each sow. 2 ‘ Milk of the Ewe. ‘ An analysis of ewe milk shows it tu be very high in fat content.
