AN ENEMY OF FOWLS.
Chiggers, harvest mites, or "red
bugs," which so frequently annoy
canipers by the intense itching they
produce, may also attack fowls. Young
chickens having a free range, especial-
ly if it includes low lying land, are the
melet liable to suffer from these pare-
, sites. The mites penetrate the skin,
causing an intense itching, and ab-
scesses may be found where clusters
of tunes are feeding. Theee absceesee
are sometimes a third of an inch in
diameter, surrounded by an area of in-
flammation. The birds become droopy,
refuse to eat, and may die from hun-
ger and exhaustion.
If an abscess has not yet formed the
inflamed area may be treated with'
sulphur ointment, Peruvian balsam, or
a mixture of one part of kerosene oil
with three parts of lard. If suppura-
tion has occurred the scab should be
removed and the area washed with 4
per cent. carbolic acid solution. Fre-
gttent light dusting with flowers of
sulphur will keep the chickens from
becoming infeated.
NOTES.
;There are people who have the right
variety of fowls, who house and teed
them properly, and yet who cannot ob-
tain eggs early in the winter beeeuse
their fowls are too old. It is seldom
that it pays to keep hens for laying
after they are two and a half Years
old1 not that they will not give a pro-
fit, but that younger fowls will give a
greater profit.
Either of the following suggested
dry mash mixtures should be fed in -a.
I dry mash hopper, allowing the fowl
-to have access to it at all times, Mash
No. 1—Two parts corn meal, one part
beef scrap. Mash No, 2—Three parts
corn meal and one part beef scrap.

Clothes of a light color are noVfavor-
ed in factories where work Is done on
•gold. In fact, in many such factories a
dark euit of clothes is absolutely de-
manded, and even a light waistcoat maY
lose a man a job. The reason for this
'is that any stray gietine of gold that maY
get on the clothing can easily be caueht
on a dark suit, while they •might get
away from the establishment if light
• clothes were worn.
That such a rule was enforced among
gold workefs one Irian learned recently'
when a Bohemian gold beater applied
to him for a helping% hand. The Bohem-
ian 'said that he had not been in this,
country long, that he hadhad a chance
to obtain a good job at his trade, but
that the place had been refused him be-
cause he turned up with a light coat
and waistcoat on, and they were the onle
clothes he had. .
The man whom he approached was
struck by the story and offered to help
him out if it proved true. He went to
a factory with him and found out that
the man could have the job if he present-
ed himself within an hour clad in •the
proper clothes. So a suit 'of the desired
kind was obtained for hirn and sure en-
ough he got the job.
"You may think this is strange," said
the foreman vf the factoty, "but it
_means quite a lot to us. Every man's
clothing is carefully examined when he
leaves the place at night and the gold
Is brushed off whenever we see any
on his clothing. It is impossible to hide
even tiny grains on a dark background,
but in the case of a mixed or a light
suit we might easily lose quite an amount
cif gold, and gold ien't anything you
want to lose even in small quantities.',
NATURE'S SWEET.
Honey, which Is now a luxury, was in
old times a. necessary, for it was then
the principal sweetener of food. Sugar
was not introduced u,ntll the latter days
of the Roman Empire, and was tirst
oddly described as an Indian salt that
was as sweet as honey. The numerous
references to honey in the Bible are due
to its being the common sweetener used
by the people.
Honey from the comb Is considered to
be the most luxurious form of this delect-
able sweet, and many persons eat the
wax with the honey. That is a foolish
thing to do, however -as foolish as It
would be to eat the paper that butter
Is wrapped up in, or the bag that con-
tains sugar. The wax in the honeycomb
Is in no way nutritious, and is decidedly
Indigestible.
The proper way to eat honey in the
comb is to place a piece of the comb
on one's plate, with the cells in a ver.
tical position, and press one's knife- firm-
ly upon it, so that all the honey runs
out. Eat the honey and leave the wax.
The bees do not, care for blossoming
.flowers, as the poets imagine. They are
practical, utilitarian creatures, and pre.
ter the period just before fructification.
They dearly love clover, but most kinds
of fruit blossoms and seine kindof
forest trees are very useful to them. The
flavor and the quality of honey vary
with the plants upon Which the bee feeds.
Heather honey is naturally popular in
Scotland, . and the famous Narbonne
honey owes its flavor te rosemary. Oc-
casionally the bee Is irijudicious, how.
ever, and choose Injurious herbs. The
soldiers of Xenophon, after eating the
honey of Trebizond, became either mad
or drunk. The °Heat was owing to the
bees having 'eaten a.polsonous azalea,
HOT BOXES.
Serious delays and accidents to trains
are often dee to overheated bearings, or,
as they are known in railroad parlance,
"het boxes."

keeping a good vigil for the condition
of the car wheels; or rather the care of

There is no excuse for a "hot box"
after a car Is sent out if the train Is
carefully looked over at each terminal.
Primarily, a "hot box" Is calmed by poor

there Is no excuse for one. A "hot box"

WHY BEAUTY FADES
A Condition Due Entirely to
Poor, Watery Blood.
The girl who return, home from
school or from work thoroughly tired
out will be fortunate if she escapes a
physical breakdown, because this get-
ting tired so easily is probably the
first warning symptom of a thinning
blood that must not be disregarded if
her health is to be preserved.
When the blood becomes thin and
impure the patient becomes thin, pale,
haggard and angular. She not only
tires out easily, but suffers from head-
aches, palpitation of the heart, dizzy
spells and a loss of appetite. This
condition will go from bad to worse,
until perhaps fatal consumption sets
In, if prompt steps are not taken to
increase and enrich the blood supply.
To make the rich, red blood that
brings the glow of health, no medicine
Yet discovered can equal Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills. If given a fair trial their
use brings rosy cheeks, bright eyes, a
good appetite and good spirits, Dr.
Williams' Pink Pins have made thou-
sands of pale, lenguid girls active and

blood mothers should insist upon their
daughters taking a fair course of
these pills. They will not only restore
health, but will save further doctor
bills.

BARNYARD MANURE'S VARYING
VALUE.
Barnyard manure is the oldest and
one of the most important fertilizers.
It Is a composition of both animal
and..vegetable substances, and when
properly wired and applied is of great
benefit to the soil in producing crepe.
A portion of the feed eaten by ani-
mals restste the digestive juices and
although gronee finer in mastication
passes out of .the digestive tract, of-
ten carrying cast-off tissue from the
linings • of the intestines. This is
known as drug, or the solid manure.
Sciencetette us that the larger por-
tion 0! the nitrogen and potreeium 'of
elle feed is carried into the circulation
of the -animal to be excreted later as
urine. :Hence we find that the drug
Cs relatively- poor in these vertillzhig
elements as ,00mpared to the total ex-
tremeit. The portion of these ele-
ments"the drtig does contain is in a
tompaiatively insoluble form and
!hence 3:less aehilable to plants. The
urine es relatively rich in nitrogen,
but milt* to 'inadequate facilities for
%eying: it; Meech is allowed to waste
on the average farm.
THE MEANING OF COARSE '`
MANURE.
When reference is made to coarse
manure, it means that there is present
considerable hay, straw or other coarse
materials ordinarily used as bedding
for the animals. By "stable manure"
is meant manure accumulated In th,e
iatable and contains the solids and
eiquid 'from the animals excreta.
'Barnyard manure" is the term ap-
plied to Manure which is subject to
exposure of rain and sun and is often
leoraposed of -excrement alone, or ex-
erement and bedding.
• Manure is very variable in its cam -
'position and value as a fertilizer for
'land. Some of the conditions affect -
ling the value of manure are: The age
Of the animal; the use of the animal;
he kind 'of animal; the nature and
'kind of feed used; the kind and
'amount of the bedidng used; the care
'taken of the manure from the time it
Is voided till applied to the soil.
The use of the animal has much to
do with the amount and value of the
'manure. Mitch cows return less of
the fertility coastituents than other
'domestic animals. Pigs (fattening)
'afford less than fattening sheep, and
!fattening sheep less than oxen. Horses,
investigators tell us, return the same
:amount relatively from the feed wile-
ther at work or at rest.
HOW THE VALUE IS INFLUENCED.
Feeds rich in feeding nutrients may
'be expectedeueder ordinary conditions
to produce manure rich in fertility
'constituents. Elute as well be ex-
plained, different kinds of animels
have different adaptability as to util-
izing feeds, and or course as to the
amount of plant food left in the
manure.
The kind and amount of feeding
used in the stalls and stables influ-
ences the manure. Bedding not only
affords comfort to the animals, bet
it absorbs .the liquid manure, thus
preventing Much of it from being
lost; it dilutes the mass and makes
it easter to save and spread; it may
enhance the value of the manure not
only in the urine, the richest in nit-
rogen, but in potassium, when nay,
straw or leaves are used as bedding.,

as a manure than the excre.a of other
animals. It ferments rapidly, however,
because it is dry and rich in nitrogen,
but lees subject to fermentation than
horse manure. Both the solids and the
liquid trent sheep excreta are rich in
nitrogen. The phosphoric acid content,
especially in the Solid, is also high.
The ina.nure from hogs varies quite
widely, depending very largely upon
the feed* Such feeds as grain, tank-
age, cottonseed meal, shortie' bran, etc.,
and other nitrogenous feeds, produce
rich manure. Hog manure contains
considerable manure and is rather
slow to' recompose. The liquid portion
of the manure as a rule contains more
phosphoric acid, and the 'solid more
Potash, than home 'or cow manure,
The nitrogen content is often high.
Poultry droppings are rich in nitro-
gen, but it is trasy to deteriorate by
fertnentation. The amount that may
be saved from an average flock of
fowls is surprisingly large. Hens are
said to produce about 35 pounds of
manure in a year to 1,000 pounds live
weight, or aboig a bushel of manure
per hen, Its value is close to that of
sheep manure.

Sauce for
the Meats
It makes all the difference in the
world whether or not the right sauce
Is served with the, meat. Certain
sauces just seem to belong with cer-
tain meats, and to know which they
are and how to make them properly
should be in the repertory of every
good cook.
HORSentADISH
Horeeradiet sauce adde such zest to
boiled beef that not to serve them to-
gether seems to some peeple a culin-
ary crime. To make this piquant
accompaniment, whip few tablespoon-
fuls of heavy cream, te, a stiff froth
and add to it three talflespoonfuls of
good, freshly -grated horseradish, one
tablespoonfue of vinegar, salt and 'a
dash of oayenne. A little dry mus-
tard may be added if lilted.
MINT SAUCE
To make mint sauce, .the natural
accompaniment to tenet lamb, dissolVe
a teaspoonful of sugar in hal/ a cup
of vinegar, stir into it a !quarter of a
cup of mint leaves, chopped as finely
as possible, and set it on the back
of the stove for 20 Or •30 minutes to
steep. Don't let it get too hot. •
APPLE SAUCE
Roast pork calls 'for ;apple sauce
always. Everyone has her favorite
recipe for this, It is especially good,
cooked well, put through a sieve, fla-
vored with nutmeg and served ice
cold. One old cook always makes it
this way: She pares her apples, cuts
them into eighths, sweetens to taste,
pours some water over them, punt
them into a casserole and bakes them
very slowly until they are a rich red-
dish brown.
A BREAD SAUCE
Of course, there is nothing better
with roast chicken than a good brown
giblet sauce, but withebroilers a bread
sauce is delicious, the sortehe English
always serve with their "grouse." An
English recipe for this sauce says:
Put a pint of milk into the double
boiler and heat, then add a half -cup
ot fine breaderumbs and an onion into
which you have stuck a half-dozen
cloves, and cook it for half an hour.
Then remove the onion, season with
salt and pepper, and add two table-
spoonfuls of butter. Have ready
another 'half -cup of breadcrumbs.
These must be coarser and nicely
browned in a tablespoonful of butter.
Peer the sauce over the chicken and
sprinkle the browned crumbs over it.
TOMATO FOR VEAL
To make tomato sauce for veal cut-
lets cook half a can of tomatoes with
a tablespoonful of minced onion and
a blade of mace. Blend two table-
spoonfuls of cooking fat with two of
flour, and add bhe tomato, strained, to
this. •Season to taste with paprika.
If a little more elaborate sauce is
wanted, add a tiny pinch of soda to
it, and then four tablespoonfuls of
thick cream.
