GEESE MOST PECULIAR FOWL
(Cf$4Htfl4 by Mattonai Connett of tho Boy

Chinees Breed Much Different From
Others as Gander Will Mete With
Several Females.
EVERY INCH A TROOP
Of all our domestic fowls, geese are
tho moot peculiar of all of them la
several ways. With tho wild or Cana
dian breed It la customary for one
gander or male to mate with only one
female, occasionally with two, but this
Is somewhat rare.
Tho Chinese breed Io much different
from any of tbe others, Inasmuch as
one rander will frequently mate with
five or alx females, and commonly
with four or more, while the Toulouse.
Emden and African usually mate with
a single female or In pairs or occa
sionally with two females, thus com
prising a trio.
Egyptian and Canadian ganders will
not breed until they are two years old.
While moot yearlings of other breeds
have breeding ability they are not
often used, aa they are at their best
from three to five years of age, and
can then be kept from three to five
years for breeding purposes, or until
seven or eight years of age In most
cases. Many ganders and females are
good breeders at ten years of age and
Ln extreme Instances, ganders twenty
years of age have been known. Geese

Prior to Construction of Improved
Highways Farmers Led Compar
atively leolated Lives.
Anything which contributes to the
physical or mental well-being of the
Individual helps to prevent disease
to reduce disability and to lengthen
life. Prior to tho development of the
automobile, and the building of our
good roada, most of the Inhabitants of
our rural districts led comparatively
isolated lives.
The difficulty met I*
getting about the country, and the
strenuousness of farm work, kept most
of the farmers, their families, and
their employees, tied down to the
farm the greater part of the year. As
a result of the monotony and constant
toll, men und women exhausted their
strength and energy early, became pre
maturely old, and were often In
capacitated through lack of proper rec
reation and relaxation.

It Is a common practice to mate old
females with young ganders and old
ganders with young females.
Matings with geese are often perma
nent unless changed by the breeder,
and for this reason any matings that
are to be changed should be changed
In the fall so that several months may
elapse before the breeding season.
Ganders are very savage during the
breeding season, and for that reason It
la best to keep each mating penned
to Itself to prevent the ganders injur
ing each other.

Lincoln Instinctively knew that knowl
edge was the key that unlocks the door
to fame and fortune, or any success that
man desires
He went directly after
knowledge to prepare himself so that
when his chance came he would be ready.
You may look handsomer than Lincoln;
vou may have more native strength than
Lincoln: you may have an Intellect that
could easily be developed: but If you
have not the burning desire to develop
yourself, you are certain to stick In the
mud-sock class
Knowledge Is distinctly a matter of In
clination. If you do not secure knowledge
you are just as certain to suffer for your
lack of development In a mental way as
you would certainly deteriorate physically
It you laid In bed all the time and would
neglect to develop your muscles.
Lazi
ness leads to pain and failure
If you In
sist on being lazy, the law of compensa
tion will force you to pay compound In
terest for your idleness.
You will be
whipped and scourged and made to do the
meanest work of the world.
The hard
laws of necessity are sure to overtake
you. You must eat and people will Insist
that you earn what you eat. The whip
of necessity will beat your bleeding back
and the sharp tongue of a heartless world
will tear to shreds your sensibilities. When
you are stretched on the cross of neces
sity, people of this world will crown you
with thorns and drive Into your flesh,
nails expressing their scorn.
Lincoln knew that the world will never
forgive failure.
Logically he equipped
himself to succeed and he did succeed
You, too, can succeed, but you must pre
pare yourself for the battle of life.
The greatest asset In life Is a strong
character and the ability to express your
self. If you are dumb as a dog you will
receive the reward of a dog, the crumbs
from some rich man's table, who under
stands the way to express himself.
The great mass of men have made no
effort to develop themselves Nearly all
are capable of Infinite development, but
they do not realise it. They are paralyzed
by the thought that they are Inferior
when in reality the only difference be
tween a successful man and themselves
Is development
They could easily grow If they would
get busy and develop themselves as Lin
coln and other great men have done.
You do not have to be a super-man or
a giant of Intellect but you do have to
be just a little better than the average
to be selected to occupy a seat of honor
and ease where you will work less and
get more.
If you simply develop the stiff back
of a jack-ass and the physical strength
of a mule you will naturally be paid for
brute strength and nothing more, because
that Is all your equipment will enable you
to render In doing th«, „„.-k of the world.
Lincoln wisely learned to talk convinc
ingly.
We are offering Dr. Frederick Houk
Law’s course on “Mastery of Speech,"
which will quickly develop your ability
to express yourself effectively.

tinction of functioning as a troop 24
hours a day. the boys sating, sleeping,
working and playing together as a
unit. These lads inarch to their meals;
on patriotic occasions they carry the
Hag to the sound of music. They go to
school a few hours each day, but the
greater part of their time Is consumed
tn out-of-door activities in which scout
craft plays a vital and moot interest

In a shelter especially made for the
boys by the men patients.
As to the twelfth law, “A scout is rev

In common morning and night The
boys kneel together snd remnln ' nee|-

Three chaplains, representing the three
faiths mentioned, are In attendance at
the sanitarium.
As to the eighth law. “A scout Is
cheerful; he smiles whenever he can”
—these boys have become famous in
the Institution for their pluck and
spirit of happiness. In the words of
one of the chaplains, "Nearly every
child at the aanltarium is cured, but
we have had two deaths within the
past few months. Both boys who died
were members of Troop 4, and to tho
end each played bls part 'every Inch a
scout’ Their cheerfulness throughout
their ll'ness was so marked that tbe
other patients would come In not only
to visit the boys, but to bolster up
their own grit and courage.”
Tbe boys have built a dam on tho
grounds to bank water In a swimming
pool. Only a few of the stronger boys,
however, are allowed to undertake
swimming. In basketry. Troop 4 is ex
tremely skillful. In 1921 at tbe East
ern States’ exposition, the boys re
ceived a blue ribbon In recognition of
the excellence of their work. The
scouts' good turns are often manifest
ed In their thoughtfulness for one an
other. For Instance, these boys are
much devoted to papers containing
scout next When such papers arrive,
the scouts make a grand rush for this
section, but the boys always pass It
first to anyone of their number who
happens that day to be confined to
bed. A passerby can see the boys
eagerly going over the Items, and bear
such a remark as, "Look here 1 See
what these fellows are doing!"
“Although these boys can never be

continues the chaplain, “for the rules
of the doctor forbid their taking hikes
or attempting scouts' pace, etc. In true
scout spirit they can reach the top. In
their work, tbe boys like to keep In
mind this thought on how to play the
