They have no private income and their men folk are una'Jle to support them. Where parents can give them a com- I fortable home, girls find their is not sufficient work at home to keep them occupied. r While parents can give them a com- fortable home, they cannot supply them with "pin money" for good clothes entertaining, etc. Girls desire a higher standard of liv- ing than their parents can afford to give them or that satisfies their par- ents. . Desire of the modern woman to be economically independent, even when her men folk are able and willing to support her. I Love of work for which the women is particularly gifted, such as artistic and professional work, and even some branches of business. Need of desire to help husband who is unable alone to support the family. The greater interest in outside busi • ness as opposed to the monotony and limitations of home environments. The desire for knowing how to work so that she can be self-supporting in case of need. Children Cry automobile, which are also things of FOR FLETCHER'S yesterday.

There is no parent or parents on earth but have the desire that their children should grow up to • be lady -like women and gentlemanly men. A ministerin an American city asked one hundred ladies in his congregation to give him, in a few words, what, in their individual opinions, constituted an ideal young man. Here is the best answer received: Dear -Replying to your request for the necessary qualifications of an "ideal young man," I would say, first, he must be a Christian; second, he should be pure in mind and have high ideals; third. he should be neat; fourth, he should be charitable and with a kindly spirit; fifth, his associates should be of like character; sixth, his forms and places of amusement and habits should not he such as to lead him to degrada- tion; seventh, he should be able to make the best of what is his and not be en- vious of others; eighth, he should be ambitious, but not let ambition make him selfish.

HOMESEEKERS' SPECIAL TRAIN LEAVES TORONTO 10.45 P.M. EACH TUESDAY COMMENC- ING JUNE 1ST, 1915. Shelter from in 0nct rain must, of course, be provided for the hen and her flock of young chicks. It is well to have a small run for the hen in connection with the brood coop and a wire door that can be closed at night for protection against marauders. The brood coop shown is one much favored in 'Mode Island. It has glass about halfway across the front. The main suggestion in regard to this coop is that a hire door that would pass back of the slatted portion of the front would lie an improvement. • PR. T.

Manure is worth more when first voided. Rational farming involves a rotation of crops. Investigation, has proven the high manurial value of clover, alfalfa and other legumes. • The lesson is, grow a- leguminous crop in the rotation, as all other crops, save the legumes, leave the soil poorer for their growth. Commercial fertilizers cannot be de- pended upon profitably to maintain the soil; hence their exclusive use discoun- tenanced. By home mixi:lg fertilizers a saving of 25 to 35% can be affected. tors, where in the majority of cases In11 from one to two square feet of floor space is given to the fowls. Over- crowding both buildings and land has brought failure to many, and the ad- vice against this practice should he heeded. Too much heat or too little during the early days of the chicks' lives will cause them to receive their first check. Placing them In growing quarters, where they ate compelled to stay in poorly , ventilated buildings and are overcrowded after they have been tak- en from the •brooder or hen, is the second check. The neglect to provide proper feed and the absence of green food is an- other cause, and when the hot days of summer come the failure to furnish shade. either natural or artificial, will retard growth. Check in the growth of the fowls means that much delay in their maturity. Properly growing poultry is accom- plished only by close attention to the lending essentials. This sloes not mean the pampering of chicks or stock. They can be checked by overkludness. But it (lots mean that every one who1is successful must pay-atteution to the known laws of successful rearing. The feel rations of different successful poultry keepers may vary slightly, but the same foundation is behind them - namely, elements to make bone and muscle. There should be at least three to four square feet of space for each fowl A well balanced ration of bran, ground oats, mcaled alfalfa, middlings lu a dry mash and placed before the chicks at all times after they are eight or ten days old is n good practice. A good mixture is 200 pounds of bran, 100 of middlings, 100 of ground oats. 100 of mewled alfalfa and 15 per cent of high grade beef scraps. The best grade commercial chick feed is scat- tered in the litter four or five times a (lay until the chicks are eight weeks old, when coarser grains are fed. When milk can be obtained cheaply enough it is a welcome addition to the ration.

In selecting the hens for the breed- ing pen in the spring the following factors have been found by observa- tion and experimentation to be essen- tial to heavy egg production -namely: First, breeding from heavy producers; second, the use of mature birds, prefer- ably hens, not pullets; third, line breed- ing rather'than too close inbreeding or outcrossiug; fourth, breeding from birds which were early producers as pullets; fifth, selecting birds which show a good, vigorous constitution; sixth, selecting for egg type long. rather deep bodies, with abundant room for the organs of digestion and reproduction; seventh, selecting large specimens of the breed; eighth, select- ing late motlers, since they are usual- ly the best winter layers; ninth, breed- ing from birds which have shown by records to be persistent layers; tenth. selecting birds that eat well, rise early and retire late, for such birds are usual- ly heavy layers.-0i'auge Judd Farmer. THE "FORLORN HOPE." PATRIOTIC' Real Meaning of a Misused Term In the Vocabulary of War. In the tales of every war one bears a great deal about "forlorn hopes." The term is one of the most misused in the vocabulary of war. It is common- ly understood to mean a desperate ven- ture. It really means "lost troop" - that is, "detached troop." The word "hope" in the phrase is not an English but a Dutch word, "hoop" meaning literally "heap" and second• arily body of troops. 'rhe word "for- lorn" represents the Dutch "verloren" -lost. A "verloren hoop" was a de- tached body of troops thrown out in front of the main line of battle to tind the enemy .and enrage them first. This was the regular sixteenth and seven- teenth century practice, and. though it was one of the more dangerous kinds or service, it was not desperate or, in the English sense, forlorn Nowadays mucic the same wort; is dune by the detached bodies of cavalry which are thrown unt before the main line of battle without corn municndons or supplies to tind the enemy. "Captu motion" is another term of war which 18 ver;y loosely used. It does not mean surrender. but surrender on terms. In fact. it means the terms, not the sur- render. It is fruit) the Latin "capita• tumn." or "heading" (from which is de- rived our word "chapter"), and a captt- elation Is n formal treaty of surrender drawn up colder a series of beadings or chapters embodying the terms on each point. -Manchester Guardian.

Pineapple pointsneed not necessarily refer to the prickles on this rather gruff and spiny fruit, but be as follows: Before peeling a pineapple wash it thoroughly in cold water. There is less waste of juice when the fruit is cut before peeling. Use a clean steel knife, that is. one not black, and wash and wipe it the minute you are through with the slicing, and do the same if you stop your work at any point. The compound formed on the knife is not good for it, and it is bad for people. If you do not want to use the whole pineapple, but only afew slices, put the cut side down on a clean plate and put in a cool place. I learned this from a nurse who fed this refreshing food at intervals to an invalid. In canningpineapple it is best to cook it first in water alone, then skim it out and make a syrup with the water in which it is cooked, and the preferred amount of sugar. Cook it gently in this syrup for five minutes or so, and then can, or if it is desirable to have a thicker syrup skim out the fruit and cook the syrup longer. If the fruit is started in a syrup itmust be a thin one, and the temperature ought not to rise above the simmering point. There is a great difference in the character of the best an poorer fruits, and one has to be governed accordingly when cooking,it. Pineapple may be shredded for can- ning, and it is exceedingly attractive thus prepared for the table: Hold the top firmly in the left hand, peel by slicing down; remove eyes; then take a silver fork, and beginning at the top, pull out the shreds to the core. Sweet- en to taste and put in a: cool place. 1'o make it go farther, add a /fourth or fifth of its treasure of chid water. 11 is often improved by such dilution. e. e
