Tuskexee. Ala., March 14. Booker T. Washington, the principal of Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute for Ne groes, tells a story In one of his lecture's about an old colored man who, when he saw Christmas approaching and had no turkey for that holiday, prayed the Lord to send him one, in the words: "Oh, Lord, send this old darky a tur key!" A week passed, and no turkey having appeared, he prayed again: "Oh, I.ord, send this poor old darkey a turkey!" Still no bird came, and, so. when the coming of tho day but one before Christ inas seemed to render the situation des perate, the old man changed the tenor of his supplications, and prayed onco more, this time: "Oh, LoAd, send this poor old darky to a turkey!" The teller of the story adds: "He got his turkey that very night." The moral of tho story Is so obvious that it Is possible It was this which sug gested to Principal Washington the de sirability of introducing poultry raising as one of the branches of industrial edu cation for girls at Tuskegee Institute. Although a great many of the young women students at Tuskegee come from plantation homes, very few of them know anything about the systematic Are of poultry. They know that hens lay eggs, and that eggs hatch Into chickens, but that Is about all. They have no knowl edge of what breeds of hens ore best adapted for certain purposes or climates. To them a hen Is a hen. If chickens fall sick they generally die. because their owners know nothing about diseases or fowls and their remedies. Tuskegee Institute is trying to improve this condition of things. The poultry de partment is :n charge of the director ot the agricultural department, a graduate of the Iowa State Agricultural College. Under his direction the girls In the poul-try-ralslng class do all the work in the institute's poultry yard, even to the white washing of the henhouse and the fences which surround the yards. In the morn ing they Bpend a certain amount of time at the poultry house, feeding the fowls, cleaning the house, gathering the eggs, and caring for the chickens during the hatching Beason. Incubators and brooders are used, and the young women learn to, operate these. When there are young chickens or ducks the girls give them what attention is necessary during the day, and at night they see that all of the fowls are safely housed. The girls who take this course carry It on in connection with their regular work In the academic classes, and the course of study In poultry raising is just as carefully planned out and as systematic ally followed as is the course In arithme tic or geography. The first year's course of study Is as follows: Pall Termn Practical talks on the economic value of poultry on the farm: comparative vab'e.f pure and mixed breeds. Plain tJjjji-Bouse construc tion; the making of yards, nests and runs. Winter Term-i-Special study nf breeding and feeding! What kind of fowl to set, what kind of eggs, and when and how to set them. The ' period of Incubation. Poultry keeping. Saving of eggs for mar ket. . Introductory study of care of young poultry. Spring Term Advanced study of the care of young poultry. Brooders. Sani tation of the bouse, runs, and all of the apparatus. Egg tasting. . Moulting and Its effects upon different brees. - The poultry house at Tuskegee Is built en the sunny side of a sandy slope and hear the summit. Large yards fenced with wire netting are connected with the house on two sides, in which the hens and chickens can be confined when it is de sired. From the opposite sides of the hopse the fowls have access to an orchard and vineyard ten acres' in extent, where they can roam at will. A pond in the valley at the.bottom of the vineyard fur nishes water for the ducks. White Pekln ducks are kept, and bull Cochins are the favorite breed of hens. The negro farmers throughout the South can raise hundreds of thousands of dollars' worth of poultry and eggs every years if they will only go about the work in the right way. One of the In structors at Tuskegee, who owns a small place near the Institute buildings, raises 500 chickens and a flock of ducks every years. Any one elBe who will give a little thought and attention to the industry can do as well, The girls In the poultry-raising class not only do the practical part of the work, but they are also taught to figure the cost and profit of the crop. They keep a careful set of books, and know Just what their stock of fowls Is worth on the first day of each month, what it has cost to keep It during the four weeks previous, nnd what it has produced in that time. One has only to see the girls go about their work to know whether they are Interested In it and are get ting any benefit from it. A PRETTY ROMANCE How Miss Ridout, of San Francisco, Be came an Artist. People who noticed In the Examiner window recently a splendid cast of the head of Sitting Bull will be interested to hear tho pretty romance of the young ar tist whose work It was. It was modeled by Miss Alice Ridout, a young lady of less than 18 years of age, who has already shown such talent that she bids fair to tako front rank among the host of artists that the Pacific Slope can claim as Its own. Iler first start in her chosen profession can he directly traced to a large English mastiff owned by her family, although her artistic aspirations date back to her early childhood. One day, while accompanied by the mastiff, she passed the open door of a sculptor's studio. The animal rushed In, and. with apparent deliberation, knocked over the pedestal upon which was placed for exhibition the artist's latest work. An arm and leg were shattered and the piece lay a seeming wreck on the floor. The at tendant was wild. The girl endeavored to make excuses for the dog, but nothing would answer. Offers were made to pay for the damage, but to no avail. The man. dreading that upon the artist's return be would lose his position, was inconsolable. The girl begged to be allowed to repair the piece, and after repeated entreaties the innu consented with the remark that while he did not believe It could be fixed, he was very certain she could not injure it. He mixed the clay for her. and watch ed with interest the unpracticed fingers doing the work that the accomplished ar tist had so lately finished and taken so much pride in. An hour passed with most gratifying results; he arm was restored and was perfect; the attendant was hap py. Another hour the leg approached completion, when, lo, the artist appeared upon the scene. He took in the situation at a glance, and. unnoticed by the occu pants of the room, watched inc wo? Finished, explanations are in orer and given. The artist i charmed, declares the work of restoration has added new charms to tho piece, und, having from the girl the great ambition of her lite, went with her to her home and insisted that her parents should allow her an op portunity to learn the art for which she had evidently so much inherent tnlent.
