A hen over two years old is not
profitable to keep, and will be less
so every day she is kept over that
time. all such old birds should be
weeded out now and disposed of, or
at least be prepared for sale later
when the demand may be a little
better. But it is a good maxim to
follow that when one is losing the
losses should be cut short at once;
and when Oneis gaining the profit
should run on. Money is saved and
made in this way in keeping poultry
as all other farm stock. But it
should be figured up whether the
cost of feeding for three months
longer will be made up by the in.
creased price obtained than. Some
times a thing may be sold cheaply
at one time, and more profit m AIDE
from it than by keeping it longer
and getting more for it. This is a
point upon which poultry keepers
and farmers generally may do a
good deal ofusefuI figuring at time.
This plan of wedding out the flock,
getting rid of all the old fowls and
younger ones too that are not pro-
fitable, such as surplus cocks and
hens that DO not lay, is the best
way to improve it, and in time to
to get a flock that will have nc
dead heads in It.

A correspondent is inclined to
find the cause Of abortion in cows
in the use Of Syracuse salt, and
thinks there is some mineral in it
that causes the trouble. lie says;

Health Hints.

DR.. Morrell Mackenzie declares
that the pollen Of rag.weed is the
cbiefexciting cause Of hay fever
in this country.
A poultice ofblack walnut leaves
applied to the throat, and the use
of decoctiOn of the leaves as a
gargle, have been found by DR..
Curtis, of Illinois, of decided be-
neft to diphtherla.
For troublesome cold in the
head the following suggestion may
be good: Put a teaspoonful of
powdered camphor in a pitcher of
boiling water and inhale from the
pitcher. Practice this for ten minu-
ties at time, and once an hour if
convenient.
When a gum boil needs to be
opened the lancet should be rolled
round with a piece of rag to wi
thin about half an inch of the
point. 1t may then he freely used
at that part of the boil which is
softest. After a gum boil has
been opened gentle pressure is
needed to squeeze out the matter,
and the mouth should be well rains
ed with hot water.
The difference between the effect
of brain work aud worry on the
mind can be compared to the diff
ference between the case with
which the stomach dispOses Of d.
gestible food and the discomfort
which arises when indigestible
masses are put into it. Worry is a
kind of dyspepsia of the mind. AS
some one has said it is to the brain
what restaurant pie is to the sto-
mach.

Those who bred poultry are often
perplexed to know why the late
Matched chickens do not thrive as
well as those Matched early in the
season. In nearly all cases the
difficulty may be traced to lice,
which prey so greedily upon the
chicks Matched in warm weather
as to make them feeble and sub.
ject to disease. The best remedy
for them is to dust the chicks with
Persian insect powder and thorOu-
ghly clean the cOOps.

Whenever a practical test OF
different animals is made IN feed
ing it is sure to demonstrate that
the employment ofimproved breeds
secures a product of such superior
quality as to command an enhanc-
ed price, aud more oft in a given
time, or on given amount of sui.
table food. The great advantage
and economy Of employing i'm
proved stock would be still more
apparent if pans were taken to
make the feeding experiments
exact and complete.

It's claimed by an experienced
hOrticulturist that there is nothing
equal to the little and often system
of pruning or rather pinching.
The soft young shoots can be
easily removed by the finger and
thumb, and the pruning, instead of
being confined to a single period,
extends Throughout tie whole sea
son, OF whenever a shoot is noticed
that demands pruning.

In using carbolic acid for disin-
fectants or insect-killers in the
poultryhouse it is not well to mix
with whitewash. The fowls may
peck the whitewash for the lime, to
use in their system for shells, and
thus poison themselves with the
carbOlic acid.

It's as easy TO care for an acre of
beets grown in the field as for an
acre of corn or potatoes. Make
the rows nearly or quite three feet
apart, drill the seed with a plant er
in straight lines and most of the
labor can be done with the horse
cultivatOr.

Hhtte Ghost.s Speech as lWitler.

AT the Fourth of July celebration at Miller in
Hand county, there were 342 Indians, and they
were quite asuccessful feature Quite an absurd
dispatch was sent the Chicago Times, and perhaps
other papers, about their alarming the people at
st. Lawrence so that they telegraphed General
Terry for military protection. A band of seven
ty-ive OF them rugged in paint and feathers came
dashing down the street giving the war whoop at
every jump of the ponies. The chiefs made
speeches, one OF them, Running Bear was nine.
ty-six years old, and very decrept and hideous,
In has speech White Ghost said:
''When I came across this prairie | saw white
people with big farms, lots OF horses and raisins
their children upon it. | have a small part OF
land out on the reservation left and every once
in a while they ask me for that. | havu't large
horses, they are small, but still the white people
ask me for piece OF my land My father vas
is now dead; he thought the land belonged TO
him and his children. When was down to see
the president told him l could drop the seed
down on the ground and it would come up, the
soil was so good When went to Washington
/ told the great fsther the land on the other side
of the river WAS not OF any account, but they

IL would come up. and then we could make a liy-

Recovering from a Broken Neck.

The vermillian Piaa Tats reports very I'M
ueual case in which man is likely to recover
after having his neck disloeated. John Henui-
pin, section boss, fell of hand car and was run
over by II. The paper says: ''He was picked
up aud carried to his home. where investigation
proved that in the fall his neck had been dislo-
Gated. AS he lay in an unconscious condition it
VAS thought lie would ole soon and as a conse-
quence il was not thought necessary TO call
physician. However, after several hours had
passed and still he did not die, IL was deemed
best to call physician. Accordingly word was
sent here and DR.. Schott repaired Immediately to
the house of the injured man. II was found
that the injury consisted in 4 complete disloca-
ton OF the neck, which rendered the patient Mt
terly helpless and numb. After applying what
remedies could be ministered. the doctor left TO
await developments AT last accounts the patti
eut was gaining some feeling in his limbs but
was not able to move. The chances are much
in favor OF his recovery but there is yet danger.
Strange to say no other injuries were sustained

out of the Office yesterday, Wood telegraphed the

signed "Wm. Tenney, Security bank, Mime

"Charles D. Tenney, Valley City, saying
''Draw on First National bank Of Valley City, for

message he knew it was 81 confidence game as
any bank official would readily see from the

rived here, got his telegram and presented him
self at the First National bank, to be informed
that his little game wouldn't work Before leav-

Dakota,s Bread PRODUCING Capaoity.

E. o. Smalley, on recent visit to Jamestown,
went out into the country TO look upon field of
thousand acres of wheat, and says: ''We fell
to figuring on pine board on the bread produc-
ing capacity of single Dakota township in which
one half the acreage is in wheat. There are $40
acres in a section, and thirty-six sections in q
township. That makes 2e,240 acres. Suppos-
ing one half, or 1000 acres in round numbers,
to be devoted to wheat and the crop to yield
twenty bushels to the acre-the probable yield
this year-and we have 100000 bushels. Allow
ing five bushels to the barrel Of hour-the high
est fgure-we have $4,000 barrels of -four, or
S,Sf4000 pounds. Few people consume asmuch
as two pounds of Hour day in the bread they
eat; but let US make this Hberal>allowance. We
thus find that single Dakota township, only
half cultivated, will supply bread for 1854 per-
sons"
