THE aApRs--How TO CURE.


When large number of chicks have
gapes it is difficult task to>handle each
one separately so as to force feather tip,
or horse hair, into the wiudpipe in order
to pull out the thread-like cape worms,
though such is the usual practice, as cures
are not always reliable without physical
aid. The best remedy is to give each
chick a drop of spirits of turpentine on
bread crumb. If the chicks are nu-
merous, mix a teaspoonful of spirits tur-
pertine with quart of corn meal, make
into stiff dough and feed It to the
chicks. A wholesale method of curing
gapes is to put the chicks in box with
wire partition; on one SIDE of the par
tition the chicks are to be placed, and on
the other side of the wire hot brick or
stone. Pour little carbolic acid on the
hot brick, shut the lid Of the box and
compel the chicks to breathe the fumes
of the carbolic acid. It will cure the
gapes at once, but care must be taken not
to suffocate the chicks. This remedy is
also excellent for roup, or where adult
fowls are suffocating with the well known
difficult breathing. Once or twice at
practice will enable you to handle the
chicks just as it should be. To prevent
gapes, keep the chicks on clean, board
foors.-Farm and Fireside.

CURING CLOVER.

To determine the condition Of partly
cured clover have found much help in
taking half dozen stalks and twisting
them very tightly. The :se-s o- less Cor
mono at ally sap that I can twist out
shows far better than the. looks Of the
clover how much 1t is cured. This has
been laughed at in these columns, but
nevertheless It is the best way know of
to determine the condition Of the stems.
They may be too full of sap to put into
the barn and still the hay appear quite
dry. Isuspect I cure my clover more
than some. do not care to handle an
extra ton of water on each acre, only to
have it sweat and steam in the NOW. It
seems as well to let the air take this wa.
ter while the hay y the field, as later,
md saves me uselS sEhg. But want
the hay green enough so that it will heat
some, 30 as to settle solidly. 1t is easy
to think and write about these things,
but it has taken many years of experience
under varying circumstances to make one
feel anything like q master of the clover
curing business, so do not be discouraged
If you cannot make good hey the first
time.-Ohio Farnser.

The protest OF the high caste Hindoos
against the sale of liquor has drawn from
the viceroy Of India the declaration that
drunkenness is only prevalent among power
full and progressive races. According to the
theory of this statesman, the drunker the
Hindoos get the higher they are climbing in
the scale of civilization.
DR.. Huss, of Sweden, says that half his na-
ton are annually consuming Gn average of
forty gallons of liquor each; that new dis
eases have increased fearfully i'm prevalence
and intensity, and that, in consequence, the
Swedes have deteriorated i'm stature and
physical strength. The testimony from
France and other nations Of Europe is simi-
lar.
Mr.. nj. A. Gault, who has been at work for

dollar license fee and established lunch coun-

table. In another town the ladies took turns

Recent official inspection of Russian prisons
has revealed a sad state of overcrowding. A
general increase Of crime is reported, of which
the widespread drunkenness now prevailing in
