There appears less of the turbulent
In tore for the Prince of Piedmont ,
who was born nl Turin nt 11 o'cloclt
on the night of SOill , 190. . The
astrologer says of him :
"This boy Is not born to achieve
what the world calls Sllccess The ruling -
ing planets are wool ; : and unfortunate
both by position and aspect and while
sincerity ot purpose \ and much public
favor are shown , yet the general characteristics .
ncterlstlcs arc by far too impulsive

1 might almost say revolutionary to
warrant the hope ot the successful
issue of many of his enterprises
"He will display wonderful Intuition ,

Good Natured In Defeat.
A. Heaton Robertson of New Haven ,
the recent democratic candidate for
governor of Connecticut , set a good
example of taking defeat good humor'
el11) and light henrtedl ' . His congratulatory -
ulatory telegram to the victorious republican -
publican candidate was as follows :
"Strucl by n c 'clone. Have just
crawled from lindeI' Before I look
around 1 want to extend to you my
. .
congratulations for your saCet ) . . "
Meaning of Letter "R. "
The letter "R" at the head of all
prescriptions Is derived from the
Latin word recipe , the Imperative
meaning "take. " The little dart over
the tall ot the "n" Is the symbol ot
Jove , of the Latin god Jupiter , and invests -
vests the writer with his authorlt . -
by the power at JUlllter. Therefore ,
the sign properly reads , "Dr Jupiter ,
take this "

THE KILKENNY MAN'S TALE

Top of the Building.
"Afl an Irishman , I might be expected
peeted to tell this story In Ilinlect. I

that even an Irishman docs not write

In the neWSIJaJCI'S ) and hear on the

Blue Ribbons and Breeding Birds.
During the fall and winter a large f.\
.
.
lumber of poultry raisers will show . ,
birds nt poultry shows The love of
prizes should nol loud to the pampering '
Ing of the fowls that are to be ex-
hibited. The birds that are to be .
placed before the pUblic will be the ,
best ones front the standpoint of official .
fIclnl excellence , and these are the ,
ones hat I arc of most value for (
breedlllg purposes But It Is no so'
I'el that a good tn\ny.of these birds .
are : ruined 1'01' breeding purpose in 1\ \ ;
sIngle campalrn ; : It is not all un-
usual thing lo have these prize birds ' :
sell for a fancy price \ , and the buyer . .
he sadly disappointed when ho comes
to look ; : for resulls. Time blue ribbon I
Is the cause of retrogression in the '
flock of many a breeder lIe wins the 1
blue rIbbon for his birds and makes a I
great reputatIon for himself , which ,
means a great demand for the prod- ,
\lct of his - yards . and he Is then un'
able to meet that demand on account "
ot the breeding qualities of his best . t
birds having been deteriorated by ,
overfoedlng. ,
.
The Head of the Flock.
The character of the flock of poultry -
try may bo rapidly built up if I the head
of the flock Is every year a vigorous
bird of high breeding. An old scrub I
wIll not do. Neither does it do to
pick : out a fine looking bird , If one
of the grades. Using grades to head I
the flock : : can never Improve the avers
ago of the flocl\ :
Culling Out.
Il does not pt'y to carry cuBs any ; -
longer than It is possible to deter- i
mine that they are culls Prices are .
better now than they wIll ho later In I
the fall , and the bIrds that are not A ( '
suitable for breeders should be soul Ito I
to market as soon as they can be prop- 1
erly fittod. If the breeder is trying . {
to raise the standard at his flock it , ' ,
will pay him to cull closely. ;
,
Fall Buying.
The tlm' to buy hens and roosters
for breedIng purposes Is In the fall , :
as the price Is then lower than at any
other time of yonI' The large num- ,
bel' of birds In Ue hands of breeders .
make It easy to secure bargains.
When the noels ; : have all been cut ,
down to half what they are In the tall
It wlll not be so easy to get good I
birds at a reasonable price.
- - ,
In Selling Breeders. , ,
The best way to dispose at breedIng Y "
birds Is to advertise them in the agricultural - "
cultural papers. A good many breed-
ors carry stock ; : for months longer \
than they need to because they have f
'
not learned that money spent In advertising - }
\'ertlslng Is well spent The cost of '
'I
advertising Is largely paid by the saying .
Ing In the cost of keeping the birds It j
they are not sold. . .
Good Prices for Good Birds.
A man can afford to pay a good I
price for a good bird. A little more
vigor than usual Is worth money. If
n Ulan Is Intending to build up n flock
out of which he hopes to bring prize
winners he will find it to his advan-
tage to have an expert score the birds
he places at the head ot the flock.
Got Rid of the Roosters. '
Very few roosters are needed In a \ J'
'
HoelIt : the eggs the hens lay are
not to be used for setting It Is unnecessary -
necessary to have a male head of the
nock. Without him the eggs will keep
botter.

Not many owls should be kept In
