Healthy-Minded Girl Faces Factr
8quarely and Looks for Reasons
for Shattered Idol.
"Most of us start out ln girlhood
with rather definite oplnoins as to
friendship," says Anne Bryan McCall
In Woman's Home Companion. "A
friend should be this or that. We have
the matter all settled in our minds.
And then, along comes some experi
ence entirely outside our expectation.
The friend to whom we have vowed
undying devotion falls us In some es
sentlal and disappoints us deeply. The
structure we thought secure for all
time falls suddenly. Some of us may
perhaps sit among the ruins, bewail
Ing and embittered; but tbe healthy
minded girl faces the fact squarely
and looks about for reasons,
"One reason our friendships fall
Is that we think of them as complete
and established things. Friendship is
a thing never complete It Is always
In the making. A vow of friendship,
no matter how earnest, is at best,
only a promise to pay; whereas many
of us mistake It for a payment in It
self. Take any of theso big qualities
and requirements of every honor, un
selfishness, fidelity does it occur to
you that any one of these can be es
tablished once and for all? Indeed, it
cannot. Loyalty yesterday is not loy
alty today, nor will an unselfish act of
the day that Is past serve to meet the
obligation of usefulness of the day
that is here. It is not a luxury, this,
that can be bought and paid for and a
receipt given.

CUSTOM OF SHAKING HANDS
Display of Friendly Feeling Origin
ated When Men Were In Habit of
Carrying Swords.
Did you ever ask yourself why you
shake hands with persons whom you
know? Here Is the reason:
In the old days, when every man
who had any pretensions to being a
gentleman carried a sword, It was the
custom for men when they met to
show that they had no Intention ot
treachery to offer each other their
weapon hands that is, the hand that
would be used to draw the sword, and
to withhold the hand was usually the
signal for a fight.
So fixed did this habit become that
long after men ceased to wear swords
they still offered the weapon hand to
a friend and declined to offer It to an
enemy. To this day when you refuse
to shake hands with a person It signi
fies that you are at war. Among
savages, who never carried awords,
tbe practice of shaking hands la un
known, and it affords them amusement
to aee the white men do it.

To insure the best success in this
rvork, the poultryman must first have
fixed in his mind the line he wishes
to follow and then bend every effort
to carry it out. If he wishes to breed
hens for eggs, the first thing he must
do is to select his stock with that ob
ject in view.
A farmer who feeds steers for beef
production picks out individuals which
conform closest to the type of animal
which he considers would make the
best feeder. This type is entirely dif
ferent from the one a dairyman would
select for his dairy herd. The man
who selects a horse to use on a heavy
drag wagon hunts for one which he
thinks can best do that work, while
the man selecting a race horse would
pick one of an entirely different con
formation.
Thus, in intelligent selection of our
live stock the purpose for which it is
to be used is first determined. In ap
plying this principle in the poultry
business, there are several things
which should be considered in select
ing hens for layers.
The first thing to notice concerning
the shape is, as to whether or not the
hen is rangy or bocky. A bocky hen
indicates a meat producer, while the
more rangy one Indicates the produc
tion of eggs. Since the development
of the egg, to a large extent, takes
place In the region of the body below
the broad part of the back, that part
of the body should be broader than
the fore part. This gives to the body
a V-shaped appearance as viewed
from the top, the small part of the
V lying toward the front. When a
hen is in heavy laying condition, her
abdomen is lower than the breast line.
This gives the body the appearance
of being V-shaped as viewed from
the side along the top and bottom
lines, with the small part of the V
toward the front. This enlargement
of the body in the abdominal region
PREPARING SOIL
FOR ONION CROP
Plant Flourishes In Rich, Well
Drained Loam Avoid Hill
Bides, Heavy Clay and
Stones.
The best soil for onions is a rich,
well-drained loam. Heavy clays, hill
sides and stony land should be avoid
ed. Onion soil cannot be too rich.
Excellent crops are grown on deep,
rich, muck lands that have been un
der cultivation for three or four years.
Such lands should contain a fair mix
ture of sand. New, raw muck lands
give poor returns.
The ground for onions should have
been planted to some heavily manured
hoed crop the preceding year and be
practically free from weed seed. It
js a great mistake to grow onions on
weedy or run-down land.
The following which relates to onion
growing on a large scale also applies
to garden growing.
A rather firm seedbed which results
from fall plowing Is desirable and
gives the best results. A second crop
of clover, heavily fertilized with barn
yard manure and turned under In the
fall followed by potatoes the next year
makes an excellent preparation for
onions the second year.
A heavy top dressing of well-rotted
barnyard manure or compost should
be applied In the spring, and well
makes the back appear somewhat
narrower, giving the body a V-shaped
appearance from the back downward
on the Bides as viewed from the rear.
Thus, a body V-shaped in three di
rections indicates large productive
powers.
A good layer is longer In body, neck
and legs than a- meat-producing hen.
She stands up well and has a well
spread tall. Observation has shown
that a pinch-tailed Leghorn Is not
generally as good a layer as is a fan
tailed one. .
The character of the head furnish
ings is an indication of the hen's lay
ing condition. When a hen is in full
laying her comb is full and bright
red. Some ' Plymouth Rocks when
laying heavily will have lopped combs,
and therefore become disqualified as
show birds. When hens are molting
they lose all their color in face and
comb and the size of their combs be
come very small, but as soon as laying
commences, the combs enlarge and
the color returns. Many Instances
have been noted with Leghorns and
Minorcas which indicate that the
birds with the largest and reddest
combs are in heavy-laying condition.
A laying hen works and hunts for
food all day, is the first off of the
roost and the last to go to roost.
Some claim the pelvic bone test to
be final and conclusive. Immediately
below the tall at the end of side
pieces of the back are two somewhat
bony protuberances. These are called
the pelvic or "lay" bones, and are
just above the vent through which
the eggs must pass. When an eg
Is Jaid, these bones must be forced
apart to allow its free passage. When
these bones are soft and pliable, and
spread sufficient to allow three fingers
to be placed between them, it Is an
Indication that the hen is laying. If
they are hard and bony, and close
together, the hen would not be con'
sidered as laying at that time.
worked into the soli. After this a com
plete commercial fertilizer analyzing
4 per cent, nitrogen, 8 per cent, avail
able phosphoric and 10 per cent pot
ash should be applied.
This fertilizer formula is very popu
lar with large onion growers, and it
should be put on broadcast and thick.
If the ground is in a high state of
cultivation the commercial fertilizer
may replace In part, the barnyard
manure. A top dressing of ashes and
hen manure might also replace In part
the commercial fertilizers.
Very successful growers use them
all and in addition nitrate of soda ap
plied broadcast in three or four ap
plications during the growing season.
Wood ashes constitute one of the
best forms of potash fertilizers and
should be carefully kept under shelter
away from rains.
It is well to bear in mind that It
costs just as much to seed and culti
vate a crop of onions that yields 300
bushels to the acre as it does to grow
a crop yielding 800 to 1,000 bushels.
Guarding Against Scratches.
One of the best preventives . of
scratches in horses is to keep the
feet clean. If mud is permitted to
dry on the fetlocks Irritation is likely
to ensue.
POMACE MAKES
A FERTILIZER
Waste From Apples May Also
be Vsed as Hoar Feed An
Excellent Way to
Dispose of It.
Apple pomace can be used as a fer
tilizer. It will add humus to the soil.
Never put the pomace In the orchard,
s it spreads fungous diseases and in
sects which otherwise would be de
stroyed. Hogs eat pomace readily. And that
says Albert Dickens, professor of hor
ticulture at the Kansas Agricultural
college. Is one of the best ways to dis
pose of tt Do not feed pomace to
rattening hogs, as the acid in It will
set their teeth on edge, and they may
sat less.
Pomace Is sometimes placed In bar
rels and covered with water, vinegar

unsatisfactory method if there la verr

and other insects that are drawn by

cider is made in this way.
Bacon Breeds.
The large black hog, a bacon breed
much in favor In England, Is but little
known in this country, there being but
four herds as far as Is known. They
are long, deep-bodied, with enormous
drooping ears. The shoulders are
light, the carcass is rather limp, but
the bacon Is as fine as any Tarn worth
bacon.
Coal Ashes and Manure.
The sittings from coal ashes, when
placed on poultry droppings, absorb
liquids, fix volatile ammonia, prevent
offensive odors, and thus are of value
in preserving the qualities of the drop
pings for fertilizing purposes.
Money in Hogs.
