Roscoe Conkling il man Of some
peculiarities, but he is sound on the
newspaper question. He once said:
The smallest county newspaper il
more TO it's county subscribers in one
month than its price for one year, and
does more for its neighborhood for
nothing than any high official does for
his muniticient salary
woman in Medina, Ohio, had been
coughing more or less for nineteen
years, when one day not long ago she
fell down stairs, Up to the time Of
that accident the doctors were per
suaded that she had consumption,
But when she picked herself up after
the fall, she coughed up shirt button
and since then has been cured wom-
an-cured Of consumption.
About the worst enemies OF poultry
are lice and rats, and the best rene.
dies are probably ken osene and arse
nic. For the rats mix an ounce of
trsenic with an ounce OF lard and
corn meal enough to make n stiff
dough, and put water where il will
he handy. For the lice, dilute the
kerosene with melted lard, about half
and half, and apply to the chicks
head and neck with a small marking
brush. Rats will even carry Off eggs
sometimes, as we'll as chickens.
