The Care OF Poultry.

Don't be tempted to keep too many
fowls together. Small f1ocks care fully
tended will give much better results.
Have your hen house so constructed
that the fowls may have the benefit of
all the sunlight possible.
The roosts should be low, especially
for all heavy fowls, and in the warmest
part of the house. There should be
ample meaus of ventilation without the
possibility of draft at night. or you
may look for swelled head and its at
tendant miseries in the morning.
If you have rooster that seems
especially attentive to certain hen,
watch him. | have seen such one
stand by the nest while she was laying
her egg, and directly she left the nest he
would break the egg and call all the rest
of the hens to share in the feast. Thus
hens are taught to eateggs.
Moisture and ventilation in art fetal
Matching are two great stumbling blocks
in poultry keeping. Every man who
invents an incubator has his theory on
these points. After various experiments
am satisfied that more chicks are
killed by too much. than too little
moisture, recently hatched i50
healthy chickens from 1SS fertile eggs,
and in hot-water incubator, without

small cups containing sponges, which

by means OF an inch and quarter pipe

tightly plugged until after the tenth day.

The man said again and his utter

to get something that couldn'tidentify.
The girl patiently said once more, "I beg
pardon, what is it?"
The man was very red about the neck
and cheeks by this time, and with q
great effort he repeated his request. The
girl blushed little and put her hand to
her chin and rubbed it refectively.
Then she said: ''No, sir, we haven't

After the man had bounced out said

How to Treat and Feed calves

New York farmer says in the World.
Let the calf run with the COW till the
milk is fit to use. A new born calf is
weak like baby; its stomach is not
strong enough to digest quart or two
OF milk that is drunk quickly or poured
down its throat only twice day, and it
as cruel to compel it to do so. 1t needs
70 suck a little at time and often. Be-
sides 1t learns to drink much easier after
st has grown strong by running with its
mother two or three days. By all means
use calf feeder, which makes a calf
sack the milk in natural manner. Try
THIS once and your calves will do so much
better thit you will never raise another
without the feeder. After it learns to
suck the feeder which will not he long.
at can be taught to first drink part of
Its mess and then suck the rest, and so
woaned from the feeder gradually.
Finally, don't be so cruel as to feed
calf only twice day for the first few
weeks.
''ln teaching calf to drink it is gen
orally necessary to let it suck your finger
while holding its mouth in the milk.
Strange to say, there are even now farm
ers mat don't know this, but will let the
poor thing go hungry till it will either
drink or has to be killed.
IAN excellent calf-feeder is made by
boring a one half-inch hole through the
side of a wooden pail just above the bot
tom Sad directly under one of the ears.
Then take a piece of nursing bottle
tubing three or four inches long "a short
piece can lie got of any druggist and a
strip of heavy sheeting about five inches
wide and foot or two long. with wide
hem or fold on one edge, and roll up the
tube snugly in the cloth till it makes a
roll large enough to fit rather tightly in
the hole in the pail, but not tightly
enough to press the rubber tube together
and close it. The folded edge of the
cloth makes one end of the roll larger
than the other. Now draw this roll
through the hole from the inside of the
pail, fasten the inner and larger end with
a few tacks. hem down the loose edge of
the cloth, and it is done. The milk runs
slowly through the tube, and the calf
learns to suck the thing at once

II
ton at the Standard Tonight.
Yank Adams, who is termed the dig
ital Billiard Wonder" has consented to
play against the nine contestants in the
last tourney held at the Standard and
won by Albert Hoa. Adams not only
agrees to play them 1000 or no count
tonight, but further agrees to give any
gentleman the entire receipts of the
house if they succeed in keeping the
game as fast as lie makes the billiards.
Yank is the only American billiardist
who has ever played for the royalty. In
1886 he appeared before the Prince of
Wales in London and the COmte De
Paris in Paris. While in London John
II. Roberts, Jr., offered the Yankee $500
a week for one year to play afternoon
and evening at his Argyle rooms. After
playing for the Comte de Paris, the
Frenchmen wanted YaDk to state his
figures for an indefinite period. He
has also played for three presidents, and
while in New York was paid by the
VanderbiIts and Goulds, 500 per night.
Bullock's Billiard Guide says Yank Adj
ans has received for exhibition alone in
seven years over $4,000, or more money
than the balance of the billiard players
combined. His appearance at the Stand
ard billiard hall tonight will be quite a
treat for lovers of the gentleman's game,
especially those who have seen Schaefer,
Slosson and Carter. Their work, com
pared with that of the finger wonder, is
like novice playing an expert.

IA to 10.
a Magnificent Contest Be-

Washington Teams.
Philadelphia Beats New York
The Athletics Lead the
Americans.

There was great chasing Of leather on
the Minneapolis grounds yesterday, and
it was difficult to tell whether Minneap-
oils or ST. Paul chased the more or the
harder. st. Paul chased oftener, but
the local team chased further when it
got started. Five times the lively ball
was boosted over the surrounding
fences, three times the fence being the
far one. Never until yesterday has this
feat been performed. Traditions of base
ball contain no wild dream of smuggling
that encompaSsed such deed as
driving ball over that fence. To be
sure the diamond has been changed,
but even now it is beauty of long
hit. Earle was the first to hit the mark,
with as long drive as the ground
ever knew. Robinson next eSSayed it,
the ball falling between the fences and
Earle fishing it out of small hole.
Then Pickett lifted it over, and for an
instant his usually grutf, kicking
Scowl gave way to CLEAN OF
delight. Such was the game yester-
day. 1t was no day for pitch
erS, and if the base ball cranks
are fond of smuggling, they got their fill.
''Peekaboo" Veach, who handled the
curves for st. Paul, became mark for
fourteen singles, three doubles and two
home runs, which he suffered with a
bland smile. Parsons, the resent
INTERNATIONAL ADDITION
to the Minneapolis team, had three sim
giles, two doubles and two home runs
knocked out Of him in four innings, and
man succeeded him. and after that st.
Paul got but two safe hits in
the five innings. st. Paul had an off
day in the field, Murphy and Morrissy
laying cut two errors each, while Pick
EFT, Shafer and Veach each gathered
three together. Minneapolis got four
fielding errors, one of which was caused
by an accident and another by the UNI
pire. Tom Murphy officiated in the lat
fer capacity, and was made to feel that
a discriminating grand stand. loaded
down with partisanS, is holy terror
to the man who errS in Judgment.
Graves, the new catcher, made his
debut behind the bat and proved him
self great man. -Four times he lined
the ball out safely and his throwing
was caused by stepping on his mask,
giving Morrisey run. The batting OF
Graves, Winkleman, BroSnan, Robin
son, Reilly and Pickett was very dis
couraging to the pitchers and
enthusing to the stands. A total
of fOrty-nine bases was hammered out,
Minneapolis getting twenty-seyen and
st. Paul twenty-five. And that tells the
tale. The game ran along evenly until
the seventh inning, when Minneapolis
jumped upon Veach with both feet after
two men were out. Eleven men went
to bat, driving out five singles and two
home runs, netting seven runs. A
triple. passed ball and home run for ST.
Paul in the eighth, added three to st.
Paul'S score, making up its tenth.
There were no brilliant plays in the
game, which was far from model. The.
score is as follows:

Catarrh to CONSUMPTION.


Catarrh in it's destructive force stands next
to and undoubtedly leads. on to consump-
ton. 1t is therefore singular that these af-
fiicted with this fearful disease should not
make it the object of their lives to rid them
selves of it. Deceptive remedies concocted
by ignorant pretenders to medical knowledge
have weakened the confidence of the great
majority of sufferers in all advertised rene
dies. They become resigned to a life of
misery rather than torture themselves with
doubtful palliatlves. .
But this will never do. Catarrh must be
met at every stage and combated with all our
might. In many cases the disease has as
sumed dangerous symptoms The bones and
cartilage of the nose, the organs of hearing,
of seeing and of tasting so affected as tC be
useless, the uvula SO elongated. the throat so
inflamed and irritated as to produce a con-
slant and distressing cough.
SANFoRD's RADICAL CURE meets every
phase of Catarrh, from simple head cold to
the most loathsome and destructive stages.
1t is local and constitutional. Instant in re-
lieving, permanent in curing, safe, econom-
ical and never-failing.
