Mr. Fox, who has had oackine

per cent of poultry that comes' to the
packing house has to be fattened be
fore it is killed. It is the custom on
the ordinary farm to cull out the flock
the night or morning befjore marketing
regardless of the condition of the
birds. The poultry have been running
on the range around the barnyard
picking up most of their living and
are just in a good growthy condition
ready to take on fat at very little
cost. 1
The farmer should cull out his flock
and either crate feed or put them In a
small pen under sanitary conditions for
a period of two weeks and give them
atl the. corn, kafir, or other grains they
will eat, Mr. Fox says. This is long
enough to feed under ordinary con

If a farmer has the time the most
profitable way to dispose of his sur

Geese should be easier to raise than
any other kind of poultry, as under
correct conditions there should be no
disease among the young. A leading
breeder of geese says that the only
ailment he has to contend with is
latneness, which Is generally caused by
jtoo close confinement, unwholesome
food, too warm housing or too close
quarters. Geese require dry and' wind
proof quartefsr with litter on the floor
and will stand the hardest winter
weather.
To treat lameness give a tablespoon-
ful of castor oil,, by holding the beak
open and working it down the throat.
Renew the dose next day, If necessary.
Keep the ailing bird in a , dry place
and feed stale bread and water.
STANDARD-BRED FOWLS BEST
Some Farmers Can Make Money With
Mongrels, but High-Class Birds
Will Do Better.
Sometimes a man , succeeds with
barnyard mongrels better than his
neighbor with prize-winning fowls be

let the successful farmer, who has not
already done so, turn his attention to
pure-bred birds and he will derive , a
still larger profit in dollars and satis
faction, i . ' - ; ,
the fullness of life is realized. On the
other hand, the way which at first
seems broad and pleasant becomes the
way of the most abject slavery and lim

II. Warnings Against False Teach
ers (vv. 15-20).
1. Their real existence (v. 15). Evet
since God has had a people, false
prophets and teachers have appeared
among them. That they, appear every
where need not at all surprise us, for
Christ foretold that such, should be
the case (Matt. 24 :11).
2. Their nature (v. 15). (1) They
are hypocritical. The Devil does his
most successful work by masquerad
ing as an angel of light (II Cor. 11 :14.
15.) His ministers appear in this way
and turn people from the narrow to the
broafl way. If the evil one would ap
pear as he really Is. his success would
not be great. From the day when
he appeared to Eve In the garden un
til this present tifne.- hls success has
been due to his ability to deceive. (2)
They are destructive. This Is suggest
ed by their being ravening wolves. It
is when the wolf is in sheep's clothing
that he does his most destructive work.
ft Is so today. False teachers are do
ing their most deadly work while pre
tending to be loyal to the Bible and to
Jesus Christ.
3. The unfailing test (w. 16-18).
"By their fruits ye shall know them."
Every tree bears Its own kind of fruit
Nature Is Inexorable In her laws as
to this. One may search the universe
In vain for an exception to this law. ,It
Is equally true In the spiritual world.
There is a vital connection between the
faith of the heart and the fruit of the
life. That which comes but In the
conduct was first In the heart. A right
heart Is essential t right conduct.
4. Their ultimate end (v. 19). All
false teachers shall be finally punished
by being cast into the fire. . Although
God has Infinite patience and bears
long, he will see to It that this , work
does not go on -forever.
III. The Dangers of Empty Profes
sion (vv. 21-23).
1. Merely calling Christ "Lord" will
not answer for doing his will.
2. One may even do supernatural
works and not be saved (vv. 22. 23).
Not all supernatural works are di
vine. There Is a supernatural world
of evil. It is the business of every
believer to. test the spirits (I John
4:1, 2).
3. Separation from God (v. 23)
You may be a Sunday school teacher
or preacher, and even perform many
mighty works, as casting out devils,
healing the sick, and yet hear from
Jesus Christ, the Eing, the awful dec
laration "I never knew you, depart
from me."
IV. The One and Only Safe Way
(w. 24-29).
1. Hear the sayings of Christ (v.
24). To do this you must give atten
tion to reading the word of God. Avail
yourself of every means at your com
mand to become acquainted with God.
2. Do what Christ commands (w. 24-
29). One must put to practice Christ's
teachings. Hearing and doing the
teachings of Christ is .building upon
the solid rock. Christ Jesus thte
Rock of Ages, is the only right founda
tion upon which to build. Such bhlld
Ing can never be .destroyed by flood
and storm. . Hearing and not doing
Christ's sayings Is building upon the
ysand, which In the time of the storm
of God's wrath and judgment will be
utterly destroyed. Obedience must fol
low hearing Christ.
Soma Feathers Should Be Allowed to
Remain as Distinguishing Mark
Pack In Neat Boxes of Most
Convenient Size.
Capons selected for killing should
be confined for 24 hours without feed
or water, to empty their crops com
pletely. The usual method of killing
is known as the sticking method. The
fowl Is hung up by the feet, the head
In the left hand, and the whole body
stretched to full length. The mouth is
forced open and the blood-vessels at
the back of the throat are severed
with a sharp narrow-bladed knife.
The knife is then turned and the
point plunged through the roof of the
mouth to a point just behind and be
tween the eyes, piercing the brain.
The muscles are relaxed and the
feathers come out easily.
Dry Picking Is Best
Capons should always be dry picked,
as they look much better and as some
of the feathers should be left on. The
feathers of the neck and head, the tail
feathers, those a short way up the
back, the feathers, of the last two
joints of the wing, and those of the
leg, about one-third of the way from
knee, to hip joint, should be left on.
These feathers, together with the head
of the capon, serve to distinguish It
from other , classes of poultry on the
market and consequently should
never be removed. In packing, be
careful not to tear the skin. Bad
tears, poultry specialists of the United
States department of agriculture say,

becomes plain why corn should pfv-

Corn has another advantage aaO
that Is that Its nature of growtb -such

Good Plan to Treat Tops With Creo
sote as Well as Bottoms to
Prevent Deterioration.
If the top of the fence post is bev
eled the water will run off Instead of
soaking into the top of the post and
causing decay. It Is as important to
conserve the top "of the posts as the
part that is in the ground; : It will also
pay when treating the bottom of the

above ground a light treatment.
