to tho bowels It should bo prepared fie follows Place thick soar milk in pans and not over the fire lo heat through well when the whey may bo easily separated from the curd It should Ira drained to it dry powdery mans when it will ho fit to feed The curd from two pan or milk will make a generous feed for twonty five hem Bo mire to give plenty of water also grit It will bo found nprofitnblo food MANAGEMENT Of aoiLTIKd HENS Moulting hens will now lw noticed Anti also until late in the year if slow in beginning to shed their feathers They need dry quarters at night and protection from rains during the day an they will easily take cold in such condition A teaspoonful of tincture of iron in tho drinking water will sorvn as an invigorator and the food nhotild be of a variety and nourishing Milk should bo given freely CHICKEN CHOLEIU The beat symptom of cholera in intense thirst Indigestion in often supposed to be cholera Cholera kills quickly but indigestion destroys only slowly The

a light ono and pound some crockery or old china for the hens Ills only when hens are overfed and are not compelled to work and scratch that they have indigestion indigestiontI tI I I IH II Flll The School 00 JOHN W1RT DINSMORB Editor SLOYD The word Sloyd as applied to that peculiar system of educational toolwork which originated in Sweden ivas carefully selected from the Swedish vocabulary Manual Training is not a synonymous term and is often misleading when it is so used for the word Sloyd moans not only manual training but mental training I as well With those two things which are included in the very definition of tho word itself we way with high authority couple ono other consideration and say that tho principles of Sloyd are remarkably favor able to a virtuous disposition Squareness in things is not without its relation to rqtiareness in thought and notion and when a student has learned to ho truthful and exact in working with wood he will bo much inclined to apply tho same virtues in other directions on other occasions The trite expression that ideal education has to do with the threefold nature of the human being Ia most important one but It does not convoy the whole truth Such an education must not only clovolop the physique and tho mind and tho morals propor tionately but it must do it nimultane ounly with rational progression anti with a minimum of monotony or drudgery The school courses are already overcrowded but of the vari ous studies in tho largo and growing curriculum no ono branch when standing alone can an yet claim tog HIIU8Y guueial progressive simultaneous dovelopement Con frequently Sloyd has boon planned and prompted by wise men to fill this imortnnt ollico and tho only excuse for introducing such a subject into tho schools of this country is that with a careful study of the growing child bill welfare seems to demand it The value of Sloyd an as education al factor is fast becoming universally recognized Although it in yet in its infancy so far as America in concern od it has already met with exceeding success in many parts of the North and East and Las won the hearty approbation of many great educators It in deeply significant to find among its advocates and supporters such mn an Dr John Dewey of the Uni versity of Chicago Dr Han ford Henderson of Philadelphia Pres Arthur Hndloy of Yale University and Prof James and Pre Eliot of Harvard HarvardNevertheless Nevertheless like almost all other new and important movements it has had to moot and disarm many kInds of opposition Influential people sitting in educational authority have not always understood its importance and have given it an inferior position Others who have porhaps somewhat fully realized its value have been ignorant of the conditions which wore favorable to its highest success and have hampered it by adverse circum stances While several other mis apprehensions concerning it have boon abroad But those things have caused all triioheatted Sloyd teachers lo cry out in its defense and the difficulties which confronted it are fast disappearing before tho light of amore thorough study of the subject MADISON COMBS ItIHlI1 iI M11HtI IH 1 SILAS CHRKVBR MASON Editor HMHM I 1 11 HMHM MANURIAL CROPS IN THE SOUTH Clover Crops In General Farming Continued from tat week My experience with cow peas is more limited but one field of 18 acres which had borne successive crops of corn was in consequence in very poor condition and sowed to black cowpens in May In September when the pens were ripening they were cut with a mowing machine raked with a horse rako and stacked in moderate sized slacks As soon as they were dry they were beaten out with flails and the stalks fed to the cows they were eaten with great relish As soon as the peai were taken off the ground was plowed thoroughly har rowed and rolled harrowed again in a few days and sown to wheat in October when an application of 400 pounds of acid phosphate por acre was mado Tho following March Red clover seed waseown on the field Tho yield of wheat wajufino The stand of clover was excellent and the yield the following spring was about two tons per acre Another small field in very poor condition from suo cesiive croppings without manure was sown to cow peas of the Unknown variety Two hundred pounds of acid phosphate were applied The growth of vines was very rank and was cut for feed and the following spring the ground was in admirable condition for strawberries This course of treatment soon made the whole farm fertile and productive WESLKT WEBB in the

apart Then tic together tho ends of a bit of string about eight Inches long BO aa to form a loop leaving two loose ends each about an Inch long When you have done this tie the loose ends lntoa smaller loop which need not be larger than sufficient to admit the point of pencil Now place the larger loop over the two pins and putting the point of your pencil through the smaller loop stretch the string as far as It will go and circle all around tho pins You will find that In moving from one pin to the other the string forms nn ever varying triangle and that the figure described In passing all around tho pins Is as per feet an oval as the most delicate Instru ment can produce produceflow How to Air Beds The directions for airing beds given In a domestic training school are worth noting Placo two

Superiority Was Demonstrated Bated Upon the Magnificent Showing the Reliance Has Made It II the Belief of Expert That the Cup Will Remain Here New York Aug 2GIn a glorious whole sail breeze over a triangular course ten miles to a leg the fleet Hooted cup defender Reliance again Tuesday showed her heels to Sir Thomas LIptona challenger taking the second race of the cup series of 1903 by tho narrow margin of one minute and 10 seconds It was as pretty and as hard a fought contest as has ever been sailed off Sandy Hook and had tho wind not fallen during the last ten minutes the record for the course 3 hours 12 minutes and 15 seconds mado by Columbia two years ago In her memorable raco against Shamrock II would have been broken As It was Reliance sailed the 30 miles within two minutes and 39 seconds of the record which speaks wonders for her speed In the wind that was blowing Reliances victory narrow as It was would have been even smaller had not SHAMROCK THE THIRD 1 Capt Wringo the skipper of the Brit ish ship bungled tho start sending his craft over tho lino 19 seconds after the last gun and handicapping her to that extent At every point of sailing the defenders superiority was demonstrated She gained ono minute and 61 seconds In windward work 40 seconds on tho run to the second mark and 45 seconds I on tho close reach for hom*o I Based upon the maglnflccnt showing she has made in the two races already sailed It Is tho belief of many expert that the cup is safe and that It will take something better than Fifes latest creation to even budgo it After the race Sir Thomas Lipton saidYou You have all seen the results and the only thing I can say Is that we did better today than In tho last race which ii hopeful I figure my defeat at a little over one minute It I make as much progress in the next as I did In this over the last I will be a bit ahead In the finish of the third race I was more than pleased with the way my own boat was handled today It Is hard to admit It but the best boat won Perhaps with more wind at the finish tho result might have been dif ferent But I dont want to throw any cold water on the victor It Is hard to win every race In such a series and I hope our turn will come next Capt Barr said Thats number two Now wo will get ready for tho thirdLord Lord Sbaftesbury said We are licked The Reliance Is jolly well tho best boat Oliver Iselln said I dont suppose any body over saw two boats better handled than those were today It would seem however that the Roe lance baa proved her superiority in all kinds of weather and under all
