The Ratchet Cure.

Cholera, roup and chicken pox are
three dreaded diseases. We never
had a case of the first or last men,
toned, but have had plentiful supply
OF the roup. After repeated expert
ments at doctoring, we found the
Ratchet the best cure. A cock or
cockeral sick with roup, and after
wards (apparently) cured, is never
himself again. So it is with either of
the other diseases. Most all of the
other ills fowl flesh is heir to are
readily handled by light remedies.
but 1t does not pay to fuss much over
contagion. as the danger of it spread
ing is too great.-Germantown Tele-

the South's livestock is now 1915, O00,-
