Her Secret.
A witness, tr'jolly, plump old worn
nn, In a trial in the supreme court of
Massachusetts, was asked wlint time a
certain train oC cars passed her house.
She replied that she began knitting at
three o'clock nnd had knit twice
around the leg of a stocking before It
came along.
The next question, of course, was
how long It would take her to knit
twice around. The juilge hero, In his
usual quiet humor, suggested that that
would depend upon the size of tho
stocking.
To this tho witness remarked that
tho stocking was for herself anil they
-could exercise their own Judgment as
to the size, and guess how long it
would take.

Forty Palra Can Be Kept Together
Quite Successfully Birds Should
Not Be Encouraged to Idle

It Is n dehatahlc question with
squab breeders today whether birds
should be kept In small or large Hocks.
While one will advocate keeping not
over ijO pairs In a loft, .mother will nd
vocato keeping i5, and u third will
claim that there Is no harm in keeping
00 pairs together. Observations have
led to the belief Hint -10 pairs can be
kept together quite successfully. These
should have about fiO square feet of
lloor space and the lofts should bo at
least six feet high.
There should ulso bo u fly from six
to eight feet high, Iho width of the

loft nnd from twenty to thirty feet In
length. Some breeders make the fly
high enough so that it will extend over
part of the roof of the pigeon house, ,
In order tbat tbe birds may sit In the
sun. This Is not only Injurious to the
roof, but encourages the birds to lazy
habits, whereas to get successful re
sults In breeding they must be kept i
working, or at least not encouraged to
Idleness.
Tho estimated cost of feeding a pair j
of pigeons varies from $1 to $1.00 a ,
year. Reports from a number of
pigeon farms give an average cost of
Clear drinking water, grit, broken
oyster shell and charcoal should bo
kept before the pigeons all tho time.
Squabs are ready for market usually
from 3V6 to 4 weeks of age, and
up to this time they are fed by their
parents. They must he sent to market

tions. promptly as the period during which
they are In best condition rarely ex
ceeds one week. Squabs are in good
mnrket condition when fully feathered
under the wings, which Is usually
about the time they begin to ljjavo the
nest. If they are not killed at this
time they soon lose their baby fat and
their flesh begins to harden.
Catch the squabs to be marketed
In the morning before they are fed
by their parents, so that their crops
will be empty. Squabs are usually
killed In the same manner as poultry

piercing the brain, but If scut to mar
ket without plucking they are usually
killed by wringing or breaking the
neck.
Squubs should be graded according
to sljco and quality, as dark-colored
nnd small squabs tend to lower tho
price paid for an entire shipment of
mixed squabs. They are usually
packed for shipment In a good supply
of cracked Ice, hrensts up, with par
aflln paper between each layer of Ico
and squnhs. Some express companies
havo a special rato for squab ship
ments, which ehould bo secured wher
ever possible.
CARE OF MILK BEFORE C0DL
Bad Odors and Poor Flavor of Butter
Traced to Improper Handling
Keep Vessels Clean.
If the facts were known doubtless
It would he found that most of tho
contamination that causes bad odors In
milk and poor flavor In butter could be
traced to the handling of the milk be
fore It was cooled. Warm milk Is food
for bacteria nnd so long as the milk
Is exposed and warm It will likely be
contaminated.
As soon as the milk Is drawn from
the cow It should be cooled. Hvon
while the milking Is being done the
can should be covered and the milk
pall so that as little of the milk Is ex
posed as possible.
Much will always depend upon the
temperature of the milk. When the
temperature Is lowered danger of
growth of these bacteria Is reduced.
Where Ice Is available the milk may
bo quickly cooled, but where there
Is no Ice more dllllculty may be ex
pected. Of course the vessels must be kept
clean and the milk put where It will
not nbsorb bad odors. Hut It must
bo cooled before It can he expected
to be anything like free from contam
inating bacteria.

nnd lining It with clay.
A patch of atony, unproductive
ground can, in a few years, be con
verted Into a Joy for the youngstrii?,
by plautlng It to hickory trees.
Nothing adds so much to the com
fort of everybody on the farm as dry,
solid paths or walks running from the
house to all of the outbuildings and
connecting the latter.
If you do not have the energy tc
build a dipping tank for the hogs, pom
some coal oil over the pond when
they wallow, and It will aid materlallj

A gasoline engine and a ninuun

of a farm hand, and they can be al

If you are thinking of trying alfalfa
start with a small field, say two oi
three acres. If your experiment falls,
the loss will not be so great, but alfalft
will grow In almost any soil or anj
climate If It Is handled right.
GET RID OF DEFORMED BIRD?
Let Undesirable Fowls Run With Oth
ers Until Right Size, Then Fatten
Them for Market.
Handle the chicks and market do
formed birds as soon as they aro oi
market size. Crooked backs, hip Joint;
oi unequal ii"lglit, crooked toes, lonf
beaks, combs with side springs, duel
feet, otv-colored eyes and a pronounced
tendency to off-colored feathers, can
not readily bo detected without hand
ling the birds. It Is well to sow n bniir
of red flannel or mark with colorec
paint the legs of birds destined for the
early mnrket. A dab of paint on the
wing Dow Is nlso good.
Let these birds run with tho other
till about the size needed, and ther
pen und fatten. Many a sale can be
made at the door If the chicks are
cooped and ready. Keen them fre
from lice and growing every day, but
get rltl of them quickly.

ing sound almost directly above him.
He ducked his head under the cov

listen he heard the sound again, even
louder thnn before.
Again he ducked under tho covers.
Then, realizing that he couldn't stay
In bed all day, he put his head out
from under this covers and yelled. This
was with tho Idea of scaring whatever
was buzzing.
Ho succeeded in that, but it wasn't
