A Freak Surely.
A white leghorn hen belonging to
Pert y McKenzie, a Mimic() hid, its the
attraction of Toronto's western suburb
jutht now, for she has done something
that no hen of either high or low
degree le on record, as having done
before, for she presented her owner
With an egg containing a fully de-
veloped chicken on resuming work one -
(ley last Week* after her winter's
vacation. The egg, when discovered
in the nest, 1u 1 eft spherical cap over
the larger end, and through the shell
of this a dark point protruded. Fe -
an 'nation proved the dark spot to be
the beak of a Cully developed, but
lifeless chick. The freak egg ie be-
lieved to be the result of the hen being
eggbound. She had not laid before all
winter, but has laid a curiously ,shap-
ed and weak shelled egg every day
since.

Mr Van Wagenen on Seventy-sixth
Birthday Sends Cheery Greeting,
To the farmer dissatisfied with his
groove in life this beautiful optimistic
letter, first published in the Country
Gentleman, is optimistically recom-
mended;
I wish to extend to my coworkers In
agriculture everywhere my seventy-sixth
birthday greeting, This anniversary tincts
me hale and hearty, I do not know that
I ever felt less of pain or disease except
it be a mild indication of general debility,
which surely is to be expected, This de,
arable condition of health I attribute in
great measure to temperate and regular
habits of life. All my lire as a farmer 1
have been accustomed to rise at 5 and lin-
der all ordinary circumstances to retire
at 9, I deem this sort of life conducive
to the highest health. I was not born a
Samson in strength, but rather, like Paul,
with, "a thorn in the flesh." We have
never had any use for alcohol or tobacco
in the family. The only pipe we ever used
was the Indian pipe of peace, and this all
were encouraged to use freely, as its
smoke was offensive to no one, but rather
a sweet smelling savor, filling the whole
house with its perfume. This custom has
made it possible for a large family -never
Jess than seven or eight, sometimes nearly
twice, that -to live together with very lit-
tle Jar or friction. Frorn many years of
experience I can heartily recommend the
pipe of peace in all families at the earliest
Indications of any need of it.
T am sure that the farm Is no place for
those who have ambitions to become sud-
denly rich, but as a life of sturdy inde-
pendence no other equals it. Probably It
is true that the farmer could get along
without the millionaire, but the rich man
could not do without the products of• the
farm. Stilt, all classes are needed, and
their aim should be to work together for
the best good of alt. After a lifetime spent
on one farm I call myself a rich man, not
in money, It is true, but to a life satisfied
with an abundance of the things that I
really need. What we have beyond this
tends to make us poorer. The only desire
1 have for more than my needs would be
for the pleasure it would afford me to
give It to those in want.
Fifty-two years ago last November I
brought my wife to the home where we
now live. We have never known or cared
to know any other home. We have been
of one mind In thinking that there was as
much enjoyment in farm life as we -could
find anywhere in the world. Nearly all of
our neighbors have sought more congenial
surroundings, but I regret to say that ap-
parently few have bettered their condi-
tion. Not that our life has been all sun-
shine, yet we have no reason to think
there would have been more if we had
tried a change. What gives me most
pleasure of all to relate is that my dear
wife's health Is apparently as good as
my own, and we are accounting our last
days among our best.

$100 AN ACRE FROM CABBAGES
Comparativoly Little Care le Needed if
Grown Under Farmer's Eye.
There is great profit in raising cab-
bages, but the farmer should raise
them himself, says the Orange Judd
Farmer. He can have them grown
under contract for about $2 a thou-
sand, but under ills own care they
should not cost him more than $1.
Fall plowed land that has received •
about ten tons of well rotted manure
per acre is best for this crop. As
early in the spring as possible the
ground is disked once to form a dust
mulch for conserving the moisture.
-: LB 0 121:Lti>r0r rain BOSZS,
The Iattd fs then left untouched until
ready for planting, tit which time it is
disked once each way and harrowed.
There is no definite time for setting
out plants, as this Is entirely gov-
erned by the earliness of the season.
The best time is as soon as danger
of bard freezing is over.
No special cultivation Is needed.
Plow at least three times and go over
once or twice with a hoe. If the
,toeing and plowing are done at the
tight time very little hard work is re-
quired to keep the crop quite Erie
from weeds.
The average price for cabbabe on
track in recent years has been $8 per
ton. An acre will produceat least
eighteen tons, which will amount to
$144. The cost of producing an acre
Is about es follows: Rent $8; plow-
ing, harrowing and disking $1.50;
planting $2.50; . cultivation $2; hoeing
$1; cutting and hauling $12; manuring,
two years, ten tons, $10; total, $37.
This leaves an annual profit of over
$14O to the acre.

PURITY FLOUR gives high-class results, because it consists
exclusively of the high-grade portions of the best Western
hard wheat. -
On account of the extra strength of PURITY FLOUR please
remember, when making pastry, to add more shortening
than an ordinary flour
requires.
And when making
bread add more water,
and PURITY,
FLOUR will expand
into more loaves than
the same weight of
ordinary flour can
produce, thus making
"more bread and bet-
ter bread." .
Make your next flour order spell P -U -R -I -T -Y F -L -O -U -R.
It costs slightly more, but it's worth the difference.
Add PURITY FLOUR to grocery list right now.
