Beethoven's L*tt Work It la not possible to say what was Beethoven's last composition. We find a reference, dated December 2, 1826, which concerns music now preserved in the Royal library at Berlin. This is sometimes mentioned as Beethoven's last composition. On March 27, 1827, the composer wrote of "a symphony completely sketched lying in my desk, as well as a new overture and other things." This was Beethoven's tenth symphony.--Washington Star. British Monarch's Favorite Nell Gwyn lived from 1650 to 1687. She was an English actress and mistress of Charles II, by whom she had two children. Through the king she received large sums of money and many other gifts. She was noted for her beauty. Worth Considering" "The man who never contradicts you," said Hi Ho, the sage of Chinatown, "may seem to flatter when In reality he Is too Indolent even for conversation."-- Washington Star. Liver Oil, Milk and Grass Urged. • Give your poultry yellow com, cod liver oil, milk and leafy feeds for vitamines, recommends the poultry department of the New York State College of Agriculture. Chicks need vitamines for health and growth and are more sensitive to a lack of these vitamines than most animals. Growing chicks need them more than mature birds. Of the three principal vitamines for chicks, vitamine A is found abundantly in such foods as yellow corn, green vegetables, cod liver oil and milk. Lack of thi3 vitamine in the diet will retard and stunt growth and will lower resistance to disease. Vitamine B which maintains the health of the nervous system is found in the outside covering of cereals, in green vegetables, and in milk. A lack of this vitamine affects the organs of digestion and reproduction, and the nervous system. Vitamine D, or the anti-rickets vitamine, hardens the bones of growing chicks and prevents leg weakness. To prevent rickets feed cod liyer oil or eggs or allow the chicks to run out in the sunlight every day. Sunshine has the same effect on chicks as does vitamine D in their food. Window glass filters out the valuable rays of sunlight so cod liver oil must be fed when the windows are kept closed or even when the chicks are outside, if the weather Is cloudy the greater part of the time. Feed one-half pint of cod liver oil to each 100 pounds of grain and mash. Unrefined cod liver oil from a reliable company is just as efficient as refined oil and Is much cheaper. Cod liver oil tends to lose Its value when exposed to the air, so mix fresh lots of mash every week or two. Mix the cod liver oil In a small amount of bran or mash with the hands and then add this to the main pile and shovel the pile over several times until it is evenly distributed. It is usually advisable to feed cod Jlver oil during the first ten weeks of spring rearing. Cod liver oil should be stored in a cool dark place In closed containing,' _________ «. Feed for Chicks to Be I Raised for Broilers Chicks to be raised for broilers or roasters should be fed as other chicks are up to the time of finishing for their special purposes. What are called growing mashes and the usually fed hard grains are given to produce sturdy frames upon which fat may be. deposited later in the finishing process. There are any number of formulas for these, all suitable and each preferred by some poultrymen. There are excellent commercial mixtures and formulas are given from time to *time in these columns. Broilers are usually sold at from eight to twelve weeks of age and, during the last ten days or two weeks of that time are penned up and fed upon a special fattening ration, of which cojrnmeal makes up the greater part. If milk In some form is added In liberal quantity to this ration, the quality of the product is improved.

Fifty Years Ago We learn that Mr. Pool, who runs the Mudgett cheese factory, is about to erect another factory at Volo. George E.

One tree, presented by Mrs. E. S. Wheeler, was planted by the pupils, replacing one which was planted by the same room nine years ago, and which was broken by the wind last year. The new abutments on the bridge spanning Fox River were finished laslf week and the structure is now again in the best condition.
