Where the double-yard system of conhning poultry is used, one of the yards is kept in green feed, into which the hens are turned when the vrop attains a height of 4 or 5 Inches. This method of alternately yarding poultry furnishes moon feed for the birds and at tho same time freshens the yard. Rape. wheat, rye, oats and barley are usually sown for this pur- pose. Rye is good for late fall and early spring feeding. as it will live through the winter in most sections. Oats, wheat and barley are used throughout the spring, summer and early fall. Several of these grains may be sewn together to secure a greater variety of green feed, and any quick-growing grains may be used for this purposc.-Uhtnadutn Farm.

Cabbage: do not keep as well in ordinary cellars as mange] wurzels, so where both of these feeds are avail- able the cabbagcs are fed first. They are often suspended, while the mango! wurzels are split and stuck on a nail on the wall of the pen. Clover and alfalfa may be fed as hay, cut into one-half to 1 inch lengths, or may be bought in the form of meat. Alfalfa meal has a feeding analysis equal to bran, hut is not as digestible on ac- count of its larger percentage of fibre. Clover and alfalfa should be cut while slightly immature, if they are to be cured and fed to poultry. The leaves and chaff from such hay are especially adapted for poultry feeding. F Green feeds for poultry contain only a small percentage of actual food nutrients. but are important because of their succulence and bulk, which lighten the grain rations and assist in keeping the birds in good condition. The poultryman should secure a sum- cient supply of such feeds to last through the winter months in sections where growing green feeds can not be obtained. When chickens are fattened without the use of milk, green feed helps to keep them in good condition. This is what happens when a man who knows how to do one thing well concentrates on it. And it is also an illustration of what a man who is not 'ountt--this man is ttray-haired and has grown-up ft0mF--ctut do when he does not lose courage and decide that there is no room for an old man in in- dustry.

Throat Garttle.--A correspondent has been good enough to send us the following gargle for sore throats, prescribed by the late Sir Morel Mac- kenzie, the great throat specialist: Procure half-ounce of permanganate of potash, costing about eight cents or less, keep in a bottle corked to keep clean. Put two of the grains in a tumbler or cup, pour a little boiling water over, shaking it round to dis- solve; add cold water till clear bright magenta color, then gargle till finish. ed. Repeat tive or six times during the day for two days. One day is generally sufficient if used at once when any signs of sore throat is felt. The above quantity should supply a regiment for a day. This is also an excellent antiseptic mouth wash, and is harmless to children as above. Feverishness.-To cool the head, if you have no ice, place a piece of cu- cumber peel (cut rather thick) on the forehead, the inner side next the skin. This is beautifully cool and refresh- ing. Headache. - Hold some grated horseradish in the palm of the hand until warm, then sniff strongly. Be exceedingly cautious about us- ing any of the "headache powders" that have become so popular. They often stop the headache, it is true, but if you have a weak heart, there is danger of serious, even of fatal, re- sults from using them; and in any case it is wiser to look for the cause of the pain and to remove it than to conceal the danger signals by the use of strong drugsc---Youth's Companion. Some types of headache yield more readily to hot applications than to cold. Give that treatment by wring- ing cloths out of water as hot as the sufferer can bear, or by putting a small pepper plaster behind the can: and at the hack of the neck. If the headache is of the congestive types-- and generally it its-gentle message of the temples and of the entire scalp will cause the blood to circulate more freely and give relief. In the treatment of headache, all these possible causes must be con- sidered and removed if possible, and so must eyestrain, bad teeth, ade- noids, and diseases of the ears and of the nose and of the cavities in the head that communicate with them. For the immediate relief of a head- ache, lying or sitting quietly in a darkened room with cold cloths or an ice bag about the forehead may tmf- fice; instead of the cold cloths, ap- plying a solution of menthol in alco- hol or rubbing the forehead and tem- ples with a menthol pencil, often gives relief.

Treatment of Headache. Home Remedies. HEALTH t? F Ctr,", it g! M. The objects of all these divine actions-or rather different aspects of one aetion---are to be defined as those who of their own choice accept God in Christ. They answer to a di- vine ideal, obey a divine invitation, re- ceive God's verdict of acquittal on any charges the past may brine, and are clothed in the glory which God de- signed to be the portion of his own. Coed---" word of Jesus; see especial- ly Mark 2. 17. Justified-A metaphor from legal procedure, expressing sim- ply the verdict, "Not guilty.” Im- mense harm has been done by pushing one illustration too far. It takes a whole series of illustrations to make the atonement even partially clear; and the point of this one is only that the acquitted person can start afresh unencumbered by the burden of the past. Why God can acquit on the ground of faith in Christ, and how the consequence attained is future freedom from sin, we have to learn by the aid of other parables. There is nothing in human jurisprudence which illustrates this side of the Atonement, and thé parable according- ly leaves us with no further help. " l 15. Attain-yielding to sin meant :slavery (John 8. 34); yielding to God "s not a mere change of bondmasters; it is re-entering a Father's house. "Atstm-.-The first word of the Lord's 'Prayer in its original Aramaic. It is ikept in its sacred original, but imme- ‘diately translated. 29. Who are these "called" ones,'.' (Compare Rom. l. 7.) God's "fore- knowledge" being absolute, mere knowledge as to the destiny each in- dividual will choose cannot be intend- ed. God "knows" those whom he re- cognizes as his own. (Compare Amos 3. 2; Dent. M. 10; 2 Tim. 2. 19.) For all such there was a type devised from the beginning: God's, sons are to bear a "family likeness" to his Son. It is the thought of 1 John 3. 3, which tells how a "hope set on" Christ enables its possessor to purify himself after his purity. Conformed-Compare Phil. 3. 10. First-born among those whom "he is not ashamed to call brothers." So he declared his ascension "unto my Father, and your Father." 28. God worketh all things with them for good (maritin)---So road with the best MSS. Pain, sorrow, dis.. aster, God transmutes them all into fruitful discipline, and the harvest is only good. M. Meanwhile the apostle turns to the blessedness of the "installment" of our promised possession. Though the "groans" (verse 23) are inarticu- late, though prayer be but "the bur- den of a sigh," it is "inwroup,It" or "inspired" (James G. 16, as it should be read) by the Spirit, and God needs no interpreter. We pray better than we know if our hearts are open to the Bpirit's influenc. 27. For the saints-The (as it were) official name of believers; holiness is an essential. It is necessary if this "inspired" prayer is to be offered. Note, James speaks of "the supplica- tion of a righteous man." 17. Joint heirs-Compare Mark 12. 7; Heb. 1. 2; and such passages W3 Col. 1. 12. lwamphatic. Compare Acts 14. 22. This does not mean that happiness has a curse on it, so that suffering should be sought. It will come to all, and when it comes it is to be accepted as a sharing in Christ's lot. Compare 1 Pet. 4. 13. Of course, Christians in that age need not con- sider the temptations of a life without suffering; suffering was the normal condition for them all. I. Our spirit-The part of our hu- manity in which we have conscious contact with God; it is dormant in the "unspiritual." The heartfelt cry "Our Father" is produced by the meeting of the Divine Spirit with the human. Children by birth; sons by privilege-they might be adopted. 14. Led by the Bttirit--'Ncarly the same words as in Luke 4. 1, a sugge» tive parallel. Sm also Gal. G. 18. 13. Life (true, eternal life) consists in what is spiritual; if we lie with- out reference to anything higher than the body, we shall die. We must therefore anticipate the ultimate death of the bodily functions by learn- ine to depend on something higher which will not die. Verse 12. The. sentence was to end "but to the Spirit, to live after the Spirit." Paul, dictating to his too slowly writing nmanuensis, was con- stantly liable to change his construc- tions. The ttesh, in Paul, means our sinful lower. nature; in John, simply the human body. Lesson IV.-The Spirit of Lite, Rom. 8. 12-30. Golden Text: Rom. 8. 14.
