If growing chicks in February PRO teed may be given at night luting artificial Light Don't Overfeed at the Stert. Many chicks are overfed on the start. We have adoptedethe plan for the itret Ave or six days in the brood- er of weighing the feed. An experi- enced feeder may not need to weigh the feed, but the beginner generally does better by weighing it. We al- low one ounce of the dry mixture for every fifty chicks at each feed; that is, no chicks, for their first five days in the brooder, get more than six ounces of dry Eeed to fifty chicks in one day. The plan followed is to moisten the first feed with canned tomatoes, the second with eggs, and the third with minced liver, and then begin the series over again. The above amount will not satsify the chicks' appetite. They will create -a great noise at every feeding time, but it gives a chance tor the chick to ab- sorb completely the yolk in the body. Alter the first period one should feed two or three times each day all that the chicks will eat. We begin giving a drinking vessel each of water and sour milk, when the chicks are about a week old. Lany- give sour milk to drink at the start, but we have obtained slightly' better resulte by not giving the milk for the first three or four days. Feed Sprouted and Cracked Grain. When the chicks pass the second week, sprouted grains may be fed, also a little cracked grains. The change should be made gradually from tomatoes, eggs and liver over to sprouted grains, tender green grass, if available, and a little grain. If leg weakness is noted, the toma- toes and sprouted grains should be increased or the chicks put out of doors on clean tender grass. It is best to rear the chicks on new ground each year, and never to brood two lots of chicks on the same ground in any one year. Many chicks are sent in for examination each year that have troubles due to land infec- bran. It also will be found advantageous if feeding chicks frotn trough or broods out of doors to move the boards or troughs a little every feed. Likewise it must be remembered, when the chicks are fed indoors, to keep .the feed boards clean. Give Them Plenty of Grit. Grit is always in easy access of the chicks. It is advisable and necessary to add a little oyster shell dilst or fine particles to the ration daily. A certain amount of lime is necessary. Mouldy feeds, dirty feed boards, and musty litter are to be avoided. Moulds kill large nubabers of chicks. Be sure your house is clean and the litter not musty. Do not use cut barley or rye straw as litter for baby chicks, because the beards may get into the chicks' eyes. Good clean al- falfa makes the best chisei litter we have used. When it gets soiled or dirty remove and replace it with clean litter. Peed Less Frequently -Later. As the chicks get older the num- ber of feeds per day may be reduced, so that at an age of seven weeks three or four feeds per day are suffi- cient; in fact, after the second ween hoppers of dished oats or dry mash may be placed in the pen. The feeds of moist mash are continued at what- ever amount the chicks will clean up. -Dept. of Extension, 0. A. \College, Guelph. Millets Sown at Different Dates. The question is frequently asked regarding the best dated. for sowing millet for hay production. For sev- eral years in suceeission an experi- ment has been conducted at the On- tario A.gricultural College by sensing millets on each of six different dates, starting on May 156 and finishing on August lst, allowing about ,two weeks between each two dates of seediag. The average results have shown the, highest returns from sow- ing on June 1st. Naturally, varieties like the Japanese Barnyard and the Japanese Panicle require to be sown earlier than the Hungarian Grass which requires a shorter season for development. • Keep the brood sow in good thrifty and healthily condsitiOn.

The incident has often been related, but an article, by George MacAdam in the New York Times 'tells the whole story for the first titne. That is the excuse' for re- peating it here.' It was in May, 1870, that a benefit performance was giv- en for George Holland, as actor born in England, who had delighted hun- dreds of thousands of people in his time, but had fallen upon lean times in his old age. A few days before Christmas he died, and the duty of arranging for the burial devolved up- on Joe Jefferson, one of his oldest friends. He ras buried from the Church of the Transfiguration and the newspapers reported the services. A week later sthe Evening Tele- gram announced that the Rev. Wil liam T. Sabine, rector of the Church of the Atonement, had refused to bury Holland because he had been an atdr. A. controversy arose that swept the country, and to which nearly every newspaper, and it would seem, most readers, had some opin- ion to contribute. Reporters were sent to Jefferson, to Rev. Dr. Hough- ton, rector of the Church of the Transfiguration, and Rev. Dr. Sa- bine of the Church of the Atone- ment. Their stories did not differ in the main, though there were one or two details that varied. It was es- tablished that Jefferson had gone to Dr. Sabine because some of Holland's relatives attended his church and the dead actor was an Episcopalian. It occurred to Jefferson, who wasac- companied by one of the dead rean's sons that he should mention to the clergyman the fact that Holland had been an actor. To this Mr. Sabine re- plied that he had a distaste for of- ficiating at such a funeral, but that - he was willing to bury the deceased from his house. Later be admitted to a New York Times reporter that there was noth- ing in the laws of the church to for- bid- the burying of an actor from the church, but he said that as he had always advised his congregation., to keep kway from As theatres be- cause no ,moral lesson was taught by them, it would have been incon- sistent to bury the actor. Jefferson said that when Dr. Sabine refused he was shocked and mortified, chief- ly on account of the young man who had to hear his loving father treated as a reprobate. As they rose to leave the room the actor asked if there was no other church that - might aid him in his dilemma. T6 this the rector replied in the memor- able words that there- was a little church around the corner that might oblige Min The preacher °had read in the newspapers of seers being buried from the Church of ---''the Transfiguration, "Then if this be so," quoth Jefferson, "God bless the little church around the corner!" The clergyman said that Jefferson had not used these words, but had said, "All credit to that little church." It is highly probable that the ec- clesiastical Version of the conversa- tion rather than the dramatic one, is correct. We quote from Mr. MacAdam's article: - "A wave of angry protest swept the country. In the newspapers there were editorials, 'letters to the editor,' special articles and poems, a whole sheaf of them, singing the praises of "the little church around the corner' and re-echoing Joe Jef- ferson's benedictio-n. "Undonbtedly the popularity of George Holland had spniething to do with the intensity of the protest, so also had the fact that the refusal of the rites of Christhari burial tame at the Christmas seaeon., a time when kindliness and brotherliness are in the hearts of men. "But the protest voiced something deeper, stronger, than emotionalism. loo—reee pre .„, 111' %it wa te• to i*OICO)tO14' • :tktgo , T1i 4ean Ut alit* beanapeaS sea, p pole nevespepea was gr • "T1 'Yore Times (then 'we " .per) gave'v,a. half col- umn 40n. , front page' tee the ae. col nets retuatil 'Owlet '14 e head 'ne: isaic.al the s�#..4stio (Dec. 29) 'this aiewle per loaligiated an editorial that almost 114 ete celteinri, antitied TtA.

' On January 19th all the theatres in. New York threw- open their doors in a great testimonial to Holland, and incidentally a rebuke to Sabine. All the noted citars vol- unteered their services. It was per- haps the moat remarkable day in the histOry'Of New York theatres. Poor Sabine!' He had few to peak for him. 'He had been tried of intol- erance and found guilty. He had also been guilty of offering a wholesale insult to the members of the theatri- cal profession. One of the leading Episcopal clergymen of the day said that Sabine had acted silly, but con- scientiously, and that there was not a worthier young man in the Christian church. He also remarked that even if Mr. Sabine had, in the language of that dap, "pulled a bloomer," it was no reason for the newspapers, and the public to beat his brain k out. Later on Mr. Sabine joined the Reformed Episcopal Church and died a Bishop. His old chnrch has long ago been torn down and forgotten. MEDICAL DIAGNOSIS BY RADIO IS NOW A POSSIBILITY SAYS MARCONI Medical diagnosis by wireless tele- phony is the prophecy in London by Senator Guglielmo Marconi in con- nection with the recent successful transmission of the sound of the heart-beat of a man in Pittsburg to England. "Is it too, much to suggest," Sen- ator Marconi says, "that at no dis- tant date eea doctor will be able to diagnose bVeirless? The neces- sity for tha‘may arise very natur- ally.
