The Lure of the Chicken
Chickens were never the fashion till now.
Had the chicken ever been the fashion this
would bo the renaissance , but the present popu
larity is without precedent. Not only has the
chicken been dramatized , as par "Chantccler , "
but milliners have taken up the plumage right
under the noses of the Audubon Societies ; then ,
also' , there is the secretary of agriculture , who
offers the chicken as the perennial lure to the
country , where the problem of living , or pure food
nnd plenty of It Is to be Bolvod by the cltyltes
OB soon as they organize a real heglra to the tall
Umbers. Even tto cold-storage chickens hanging
Jn rows in the market look more alluring and
nuora to suggest to you the possibility ot boy-
cot'j. ' the beef trust. ,
'i ncro Is no question about the merits ot
chickens , the Brooklyn Eagle says. They carry
on a successful egg business , n gigantic trust ot
their own , no competitors and all the world for
patrons. Their product never la supplanted by
nn improved article Invented by some one who
improves on their Idea , and such good standing
have they as un Idea in economics that they nro
the chief element In the magnet that lures the
city man to the country.
Every second man you meet on Broadway will
confess he has plans to go to the country seine
day to inako a living out of chickens. IIo will

nro Mrs. Sherman's especial weakness. Mrs.
Kuox , wlfo of the secretary of state , usually
spends her summer vacation at Valley Forgo farm ,
the premier's splendid country scat and stock
farm , a short rldo by train from Philadelphia.
Mrs. Meyer , wife of the secretary of the navy , is
almost nu indefatigable n hostess In summer ns in
winter , for she entertains lavishly at her magnifi
cent country Bent at Hamilton , Mass. At the town
of Marlon , In the same state , is the largo "cot
tage" which Is the summer headquarters of the
family of Secretary Nagol ot the department of
commerce and labor.
Mrs. Hughes , wlfo of the man who has made so
remarkable n record as governor of Now York
state , finds her vehicle of supreme summer enjoy
ment in her cauoe , and the brightest weeks of the
year in her estimation nre those ho and her
family spend nt n rustic cabin on Upper Saranao
, lake , little more than n stone's throw from the
cottage where Grover Cleveland nnd his bride
spent their honeymoon. The two elder daughters
give li I in half n chanco. IIo knows the name of
the breed of chickens ho means to raise and
ho knows the kind of Incubator he will buy and
lie knows about chicken houses and chicken
"feed" and no end of detail about scientific chick
en business. The chicken dream , the chicken
lure has something to answer for , something
which never gets Into the newspapers. The real
chicken dreamer knows Just how much money
he Is going to invest In a chicken colony and
then he Intends to lie back and let the chickens
support him. U la to laugh !
"Don't lot mo prick the chicken bubble , " said
the city man who has just sold his chicken farm
and come back to town. "I don't mind giving up
the facts In the case , for no ono with the chicken
fever would belipvu mo. Every man has to try
it for himself. And It's nil right ; let him. I had
fun with chickens for three years and I've no
wish to bo n kill-joy. Hardly over n case of
chicken fever lasts a city man moro than thruo
yoara.
"The secretary of agriculture and certain utu-
dents of sociology recommend city people to
moyo to the country nnd find there the solution
of all their problems and the city sentimentalists
with shattered ncrvo systems eagerly grasp the
idea. Now , farming Is a business thu same as
any of U > c other pursuits In llfo by which men
make a living and a certain temperament la re
quired to bo aur.coRBful In It. us well as a grout

might be cited the hold which golf exerts upon
Miss Marlon Oliver , daughter of the assistant sec
retary of war , and upon Miss Frances Griscom ,
the sister of Lloyd Griscom , the well-known dip
lomat nnd politician The former of these young
Indies is nn aspirant for the golf championship of
the United States , and the latter has already been
a title holder.
Similarly It is suspected that Mrs. Alice Roosevelt
velt Longworth would go in for aeronautics did
not her husband rather frown on her ambitions
for sky sailing. Miss Katherlne Elklns. daughter
of the Bcimtor from West Virginia. Is correspond
ingly zealous ns a horsewoman , nnd has bnen
known to give up an entire season to attending
ono open-air horse show after another , usually as
an entrant in the classes for ladies' hunters Mlsa
Elkins Is also an enthusiast on the subject of
blooded dogs and has personally donated cups
and other trophies as prizes in competitive
classes at various dog shows.
"It takes n considerable amount of practical
knowledge that farmers have to be born with , a
kind of traditional Information that never gets
into tin * query column nor any other column of
the agricultural periodicals. This knowledge may
possibly be Included In theoretical farming , but
I have never found It there. It's what keeps the
city man from succeeding In the country
"Ho knows where he can get $5 a dozen for
squabs and 60 cents n dozen for eggs nnd $1 a
pound for butter and $3 a pair for broilers all the
year round. It sounds pretty good. It isn't the
first business piopositlon that has figured out
finely on paper Now the farmer rarely figures.
He saws wood , gets up at 4 a. m. nnd docs the
best ho can. He Is not nn enthusiast , and there's
a pretty good reason for It.
"Tho farmer is n patient man. Ho doesn't
dross up much nnd , without mennlng to speak
disparagingly , he eats what he can't sell City
people who live In the country sell what they
can't eat. The farmer Is obliged to live frugally
in order to muko both ends meet. Dy the time
the city man gets through eating and entertain
ing his friends there Is nothing left. IIo knows
top well what good living Is' . "

"In tbo middle of the night of March
SOth I woke up with a burning itch In
my two hands and I felt as if I could
pull them apart. In the morning the
Itching had gene to my chest and dur
ing that day It spread all over ray
body. I was red and raw from the top
of my head to the soles of my feet and
1 was in continual agony from the
itching. I could neither Ho down nor
sit up. I happened to see about Cuti-
oura Remedies and I thought I would
give them a trial. I took a good bath
with the Cuticura Soap and used the
Cutlcura Ointment , f put it on from
ny head down to my feet and then
went to bed. On the first of April I

Two Kentucky colonels were show
ing an Englishman what a wonderful
country the south is. When the
Briton had traveled from Baltimore
to Now Orleans and from the Atlantic
to the Mississippi , he said : "Yce , the
south is a fine country , but you have
no industries here. "
"No industries , " retorted Colonel
Smith , with Indignation. "Why , suh ,
Robinson , In Kentucky , has a dairy
where he produces a million pounds of
butter and a million pounds of cheese
a month. "
"Impossible ! " said the Englishman.
Colonel Smith turned to his fellow
for corroboratlpn.
"I don't know how much butter and
cheese Colonel Robinson produces a
month , " said the second Kentuckian ,
"but 1 do know that he 1ms 12 saw
mills and he runs them all with but
