May 5th. Incubation, brooding
feeding young chicks and me hods of
freeing fowls of lice and mites will
be discussed. Those interested are
welcome to attend.
In the feeding of young chicks,
nothing is better than sour milk to
prevent scours. This is r'so good
for poultry of all ages. One precau
tion, however, should be unserved,
never feed sour milk in galvanized
vessels. ' The chemical act on of the
acid from the milk on tho galvaniz
ing forms a poison which often kills
both old and young fowls. This same
acid when fed in other vessels pre
vents scours. Be sure to cleanse
the vessels daily.

Rain
It spoiled the services last
Sunday
morning. Tlu-ro wore five
persons out for Sundny school. The
uvu of us sung some songs anil hail u
lesson nnd as there were no one else
there by preaching time wo nil came
home. Some of the folks made an
elfort to ho present, but the roads
were so slippery they hud trouble
staying on the grade nnd so did not
get to the church. "It was not a
very plunsnnt morning, even though
It wns not raining at the time wo
would have been out for tho church
services. The pnstor Is never in
clined to bo critical at such things.
Ho would rather ho reasonable and
considerate. The only question he
would ask is whether other pleasures
were denied because of roads nnd in-
I clemencies or whether they were cn-
I joyed in rpite of difficulties. We
ought trent oou with the same con
sideration ns wo trent ourselves when
i it cmocs to n mutter of pleasures and
duties.

with the results of thuir rami roou
