Turn the rascals out the headache,

out to-night and keep them out with
Cascarets.
Millions of men and women take a
Cascaret now and then and never
know tho misery caused by a lazy
liver, clogged bowels or an upset stom

Let Cascarets cleanso your stomach;
remove tho sour, fermenting food;
take the excess bile from your liver
and carry out all tho constipated
waBto matter and poison In tho
bowels. Then you will feel great.
A Cascaret to-night straightens you

GREEN FEED DURING WINTER
f Egg Supply Is Decreasing, Few
Feeds of Cabbage or Turnips Will
Increase Production.
Are you beginning to feed your hens
any green stuff yet this winter? Have
you noticed any decline in egg produc
tion so far? If they aro without green
feed and the egg supply Is going down
It Is probable that a few feeds of cab
bage or turnips will help Increase pro
duction. Of course, there Is really very little
nourishment in either the cabbage or
the turnips, but a hen needs a sort of
an appetizer from time to time. I have
found it better to stimulate egg laying
by feeding some of the commoner veg
etables than to pour red or cayenne
pepper into the hons.
Tho point is that hens will ent more
when fed green vegetables at regular
Intervals. The more they ent the bet
ter the chances for heavy egg produc
tion, says a writer in an exchange.
Cabbage, turnips, potatoes and onions
help tho bird's digestion.
It does not matter much what vege
table wc use In midwinter. As a rule
I save all the small potatoes from tho
bins, beginning when the potatoes aro
dug, storing the Bmall, warty and un
dersized ones separately for use In
chicken feeding. They must bo boiled
to bo of any value, as a raw potato Is
one of the most indlgestibjo things
ever tnken into the allmcntury tract
of bird or beast.
FEEDING THE YOUNG CHICKS
Little Fellows Are Not Fed Anything
Until They Are Two Days Old at
Minnesota Station.
(By C. R. imOWN. Minnesota Experi
ment Station.)
We do not feed littlo chicks before
they are two days old, but from the
beginning give them water. During
this period the hen is given her food
out of reach of the little ones. The
first feeds arc given sparingly every
two hours, and are usually wet
mashes.
After the third day we feed some of
tho cracked grains, a little at a time,
till, at the ond of the fifth or sixth day
we are giving only two feeds a day of
the mash ami three feeds of the
cracked grain. Occasionally we give a
little whole wheat, and by the end of
eight weeks we are feeding most of
tho grains whole. If the chicks are un-

able to get worms or insects In siifll
clent quantities, they must be supplied
with a substitute, such as milk or beef
scraps. Green feed is given In the
form of finely chopped lettuce, a piece
of potato or turnip or mangel when
they are not able to run outside on the
grass.
QUESTION OF SHELL COLOR
New York City Is Ready to Pay Pre
mium for White Eggs Flavor Is
Controlled by Feeding.
There Is a prejudice in tho market
regarding tho color of the egg shell.
It Is a prejudice of long standing, and
will, without doubt, remain with the
buying public. The average Amorlcan
market prefers a lowii color, while
Now Yorlc city Is ready to pay a pre
mium for white-shelled eggs. The
brown egg buyers in particular claim
that the eggs are of a richer llavor.
All thlH is Imaginary, when we come
to understand that It Is food and not
color of shell that fluvors the egg. Ib
It reasonable to suppose the browr.
egg of tho Brahma fed on onions could
l)e as sweet as the white egg of the
Leghorn fed on clover?
Best Ration for Fattening.
There Is no ration better for fatten
lag poultry for market than sweet
potatoes and cornmeal. Cook the po
tatoes and Just before removing from
the fire add cornmeal. Feed when
cold. About a pound of cornmeal to
a hulf peck of sweet potatoes makes a
good ration.
Space for Each Hen.
Allow every hen from four to six
feet of floor space; better six. Ten
Inches each of roosting space Is not
too much. The roosts should bo placed
at least eighteen inches apart

There is perhaps no phase of or
charding that Is being perfected and
modernized as rapidly as Is the proc
ess of spraying. The change which
naturally comes from climatic varia
tions, together with tho age and
growth of tho orchard industry, and
results in appearance of new troubles
and tho increased severity of old
ones, has made the question of spray
ing a vital one to npplo 'growers.
Consequent to these conditions to
gether with tho Increasing demand
for fruit of fine appearance, comes
tlie necessity nnC tho imperative de
mand for safe and effective trent
ments. Conditions vary in different
localities and even in different or
chards in the same locality, con
sequently It is difficult to outline a
treatment that is applicable to all
sections and all conditions. There
are effective remedies and preventives
for the more Important insects and
diseases that directly attack' orchard
fruits but their efllciency depends
largely upon the intelligence with
which they aro applied. The success
with which spraying operations are
carriod on depends mora upon the
good Judgment exercised by t'lo
grower in doing the work than upon
the remedies used; that is to sa.
work that is poorly done or done too
late, will not accomplish the Intended
purpose.
Jn the eastern states, spraying of
the apple has been more or less ex
tensively carried on for years. There
tho development of the process lias
been governed almost entirely by re
quirements necessary to control fun
gous diseases. Tills has resulted in
the adoption and use of apparatus that
will produce line niistliko sprays which
may be evenly distributed over the
surface of the fruit and" foliage, thus
affording the most complete protection
by the most economical use of mix
tures possible.
In certain western states, however.
where orcharding as an Industry Is
newer, whore through the practice of
Intensified methods It has been devel
oped to a higher state of jerfcct!oii
than in other sections of the country
and whero spraying operations have
been directed chiefly against codling
moth, the tendency In recent years lias
been to adopt appliances that produce
a r-nnrso spray which may be forced
tinder high pressure Into the caljv
?avItleH of tho young fruits with a view
o protect for the entire season that
portion of tho fruits against the inva
sion of worms.
In the middle AVrist, where spraying
s done ut all, the tendency lias been
to follow tho lead of the Fast. It
seems, however, that In tills section of
the country, whero is Is frequently
necessary to protect fruit against both
fungous diseases and Insects, the logi
cal and most practical mode of pio
:edure to be .'ollowrd is to adopt a
modification or n combination of the
methods in vogue In the Fast and in
tlie West by using the western method
for tho first sprnylng for tlie codling
moth, rriducing the fungicide, where
neoescary to ubo it, to one-half or
oven to one-fourlli tlie' ctistomaiy
strength because of the greater amount
of liquid required for a drenching
spraying and adhering to tlie estab
lished method for all other sprayings.
Bordeaux mixture hay for years

general purposes. Its efllciency has
kept It In favor In spite of tho Injury
it sometimes causes. The question of

spray injury Is perliups ono of the
most perploxing ones that lias evut
come up In connection with tho treat
meat of the diseases of orchard fruits
and it is particularly significant in its
relation to applo scab. Tho Injury
lias been attributed to various causes
and, among others, tho strength or the
mixture.
Thero is perhaps' no state in tlie
Union in which the question of dust
ing Iiub been so thoroughly agitated
or in which spraying has met with
more opposition than In .Missouri, and
foV tills there aro several reasons, fn
orchards ranging from two hundred to
two thousand acres labor Is a most
Important factor. Consequently, In
tho endeavor to meet the requlnuncutH
of these conditions, efllciency has been
entirely neglected for convenience and
expediency. For these reasons ex
periments to obtain data on the dust
process have been conducted with tho
following-result: Observations showed
that thero was a difference of over
5C per cent of merchantable fruit in
favor of tlie sprayed plant when com
pared with tho dusted plant and of
over 7.'1 per cent when compared with
tho untreated plant. The reader must
decide for himself whether or not he
will dust his trees, but It. does not
seem advisable to recommend tho use
of dust in applo orchards for any pur
pose whatever, In view of tlie rtsults
of tho observations mado. -
ATTEND TO LITTLE
DETAILS OF FARM
Care and Attention Now and
Then Is All That Is Needed
to Avoid Worries.
The little tilings on tho farm have
much to do witli tlie comfort and con
tentment of the managor and his fam
ily. The neglect of the little things
torments the manager nnd greatly In
terferes with Ills peace of mind, says
Farm and Ranch. A leaky roof, a
broken gate, harness out of repair or
a bad fence may cause considerable
trouble and expense. A little euro
and attention is all that is necessary
to avoid thlB trouble.
All difficulties nnd worries cannot
bo anticipated in tlie numerous duties
that fall upon the manngcr hut many
of them can. It is possible and profit
able 11 h well to keep up with repairs
and anticipate many of tho worries
and thus prevent them.
In no other business is good Judg
ment and clear thinking more essen
tial than In farming. The manager
nhovn all men needs to think logically
and plan wisely and everything that
would Interfere with his peaco of mind
should be eliminated if possible.
It Is a good plan to inspect tho
fences, tho buildings, the roads, etc.,
occasionally, and see that these are
kept in repair. The little things
should be carefully done and tho
larger matters will take care of them
selves Nests for Hens.
Thero should lie ono nest for nvnrv
four or flvo lions. If u hen lias to wait
very long for n chance to lay she Is
'apt to wander off nnd look up a nest
of her own. It costH less to mako a
fow good nests than It does to lose
eggs- and muybe hens, too, from

& Dts of Moody Dibit lutnott
2 duett
TEXT I will walk within my houso
with a. perfect heart. P. 101:1
1, This Psalm Indicates that it was
written at somo remarkable period Li
tho Psalmist's
life, w it 0 n it
seemed mora than
ever Incumbont
on him to lead a
life of personal
holiness. It has
sometimes be-on
called "Tho Psalm
of Pious Resolu
tions," because in
its eight versos it
contains no less
than nlno "wills"
nnd flvo "shnlls."
It has also been
c a 11 0 d "Tho
Houso holder's
Psalm," because
it refers to tho author's lifo in his
home. To bo Buro tho home Is n roy
al court, and yet tho principles which
should govern there should govern in
a humbler sphere.
2. Tho toxt suggests tho thought ot
Family Religion, and tho opening of
tlie New Year is a good tlmo to mako
our resoIveB In regard to it. Tho Im
portance of tho family In tho redemp
tion scheme is seen in this that of
tho thrco fundamental agonclcs to re
form and savo tho world, tho family
comes before olthor tho church or tho
state, for without it noithor of them
could survive. And then, too, tho
family is the placo whore our truo
character Ib exhibited and our most
potent Intluenco Is exercised.
:t. Tho text suggests nt least two
things that will bo truo of tho homo
wherein each ono seeks to walk "with
a perfect heart." First, it will havo
a family altar. Even the heathen havo
their household gods representing tho
deities they worship, nnd surely wo
who know the truo God should havo
some acknowledgment of him In our
homes. Hut tho family altar can only
bo sustained whero tho truo Christian
llfo Is lived behind it. Tho odor of truo
piety manifests itself, not only In
words, but In looks and tones nnd in
the general atmosphcro pervading
everything nnd predominating over It.
4. Wo should noto particularly that
family religion is a personal matter.
The Psalmist says:
T will walk
within my houso with a porfect heart."
Tho husband cannot throw this re
sponsibility upon his wifo nnd relieve
hlmsolf of It, nor vice versa. It Is
tlie obligation of parents no less than
children, nnd of children no less than
parents. Hut It is vory clear that If
tho'rcsolution Is to bo carried out on
tho part of any or all, tho strength to
do It must bo looked for only from tho
Lord. Wo must do what David did
oven before ho gnvo uttcranco to his
vow, when he exclaimed, "Oh, when
wilt thou como unto mo?" It is only
as God comes unto us, as ho fills ua
with his Holy Spirit through our faith
In ChrlBt, that wo can bo so Instruct
ed and sanctified and quickened as to
discharge this Bolcmn duty. Let us
then seek him in n now sense and
with renewed conaocrntion at tho be
ginning of this year, that dwelling in
us individually in power, ho may
dwell In our households,
O lmppy house! where thou art loved tho
best.
Dear friend nnd Savior of our ruco.
Whoro novcr conies such welcome, hon
ored guest,
Where 'nono can ever fill thy placo;
Whero every heart goes forth to meot
time,
Where every enr attends thy word.
Whero every lip with hlesHliig greets thee,
Whero all nro wnltlng on their Lord.
O happy house! where msn nnd wlf In
heart,
In faith, und hopo are on,
That neither llfo nor denth can ever part
The holy union hero heeun:
Whero both nre RharliiK 01111 Hulvtittmi,
And live before thee, Lord, nlwiiys,
In gladness or In tribulation
In happy or In evil days.
5. It has been assumed throughout
that Christians wore boing addressed
in this discourse, and by Christians
Irs meant those who havo received
.fesus Christ as their Savior by a defi
nite net of faith, and by his grace aro
seeking to follow him ns their Lord.
Only such as these havo a dCBlre to
"walk within their house with a per
feet heart." and only such as theso
know tho source of power to accom
plish It. If at tho beginning of this
new year therefore, you nre not yet a
Christian In that sense, lot mo affec
tionately plcnd with you to become
such. The things that are happening
in tho world tcilay must, convince us
that no abiding hope or help can come
from man, and as wo look forward to
the future serious questions must
arise within us. What about tliut fu-
turo? Whlthor am I going? How may
I bo right with God? O husbands
and fathers; 0 wives and mothers;
O parents nnd children, let me plead
with you to accept Christ that you
may possess tho peaco and Joy of
known salvation. In tills way first of
all, must God come to you in order
to have awakened within you a de
sire for a perfect heart, nnd after that
thero Ib a continual coming of his
graco to you which strengthens you
In that desire and helps you to see It
realized,
