Seven Great Patriots
WILLIAM TELL.
Tho historian of recent years
seems to take especial delight in
dethroning the heroes of the past
who have been worshiped for gen-
erations as such, and not infre-
quently they are able to produce
facts and substantiate their state-
ments* to such an extent that it is
hard to question their finding*.
These heroes have grown out, of a
romantic age, when printing had
not been established, an J publicity

Of the six varieties of turkeys recog-
nized by the standard of perfection,
the bronze are considerably the largest.
Adult males are required to weigh 3G

The Narragansetts are next in size,

his adventures was founded, and
finally Baring-Gould came forward
with an effort, to demolish what

only trustworthy investigators out-
side of Switzerland, but even the
Swiss antiquarians themselves, pro-
pounce it a fabrication.
In spite oft all these dissenters
to the story, the fact remajfis undis-
puted that there existed a William
Tell and that he was a Swiss patriot
end that the folk of his country still
delight to do him honor. TI $ people
of Switzerland were not always an
free and happy as they are today.
During the reign of Dossier their
•lot was especially unhappy. But
the tyrannical hand " of the despot
was not destined to hold his clutch-
es upon them without an attempt
to assert their rights. In 1S03
they revolted and a number of pa-
triots arose against Gessler's gov-
ernment. leading among whom wero
William Tell. They conspired to
free the land, and the imperial
minion was slave by the brave Tell.
His assistants in the revolution were

The monarch wad naturally veryj
angry, and fearing that the effect
of Tell's disobedience would cause
others to rebel against him, TiCj
made up his mind to punish the
bold man. Tell's home was among
the mountains, and he waj a fa-
mous hunter. No one in all the
land could shoot with how and ar-
row as true as he. (Jessler knew
this, and consequently thought on1
a plan whereby the hunters own
skill would bring him to grief. He
ordered Tell to shoot an arrow at
en apple placed upon the hpad of
his own son. Tell cleft the apple
without hurting the child, after
which he declared that if he had
missed his aim it was his intention
to have directed another arrow
through the heart of« the tyrant.
Clessler then caused Tell to be
taken into a boat, for the purpose
of conveying him out. of the pro-
vince; but in crossing the lake a
storm arose, and as tho prisoner
was an experienced steersman he
was intrusted with the helm, of
which he was no sooner possessed
than he steered close to a rock,
leaped on shore, and soon afterward
shot Gessler near Kuznaelit. Tne

trian government was overthrown

Slates and Blacks come next and are
about three pounds lighter for the
adult male. The White Holland vari-
ety is the smallest, the adult male be-
ing required to weigh but 26 pounds
and the adult female 10. All varieties
are bred to the same shape, the only
difference is In the color.
In richness of color and luster of
plumage none of the varieties can com-
pete with the Bronze. The male espe-
cially is very brilliant. His neck, back
and breast, are a brilliant, rich bronzo,
and his main tail feathers, evenly
crossed with lines of brown penciling-
ending with a wide black band with
an edging of white, covered at their
base with dull black coverts with the

edged with white, make a plumage of
remarkable beauty.

MARQUIS JUIHES,
CIRCULATION MANAGER
The feeding of clover hay to poultry
Is a very simple matter and can be
successfully done by any farmer or
poultrymau.
Scales are a good thing for a man
to have. They enable him to know
just what he has to sell and also
what he buys.
Ewes that go into their winter quar
ters in an unthrifty and low flesh con
dition cannot bring good vigorous
lambs in the spring.
There is often a tendency on the
part of beginners to increase their
herds too rapidly. Better go slowly
and breed only the best.
A variety of crops certainly adds to
the pleasure of living, if he can have
on his table the early strawberries
and the late blackberries.
Go carefully over your farming
scheme as you worked it last season,
try to discover the weak spots and
set to work to remedy them.
If you have plenty of pasture and
milk, that veal calf will make nic
baby beef this fall late, either for mar-
ket or for the home meat supply.
It is estimated that 90 per cent of
the poultry product of the country
come from the farm, and that th
value of tiles# is close to $300,000,000
yearly.
A few drops of tincture of iron in
tho drinking water makes an excel
lent spring tonic for the poultry. It
tones up ihe system and makes rich
red blood.
While there is more or les preju
dice against the use of rye as food
for farm animals, it forms a valuable
addition to oats and barley for liv
stock In Germany.
The matter of keeping records is im-
portant. The farmer should be able
to take account of stock at the be-
ginning of every year, the same as
any merchant does.
If we neglect the hen houses this
spring till they are alive with lice and
mites, we deserve the consequences.
It will take but a few minutes to clean
it out thoroughly and not much long-
er to soak roosts, boxes and every-
thing else with kerosene. A coat of
whitewash can be put on almost as
quickly, and good dry clean earth
shoveled in when the filthy floor has
been cleaned out. Follow this kero-
sene business up every ten days or
so for a time and it will be a pretty
tough louse or mite that stays around
such a place.
BLUING, that is. THE ALTON
OftODS Bluing, has greater strength
than any other and you can use
less. It therefore costs !« .
