Ouo of the most successful men with q feb
hens, that we know, Is Mr.. A. +. Hunter, who
conducts small but very profitable poultry
farm near Boston. 1t has been well said Of
him "he writes sound common sense for his
readers and he evidently knows what he IL
talking about" His long connection with the
Nee England Farmer and contributions TO
the poultry columns Of other papers has taught
practical people to look upon him as an au-
ihority upon poultry raising topics. He Is nc
easy pleasant writer who has learned all he
knows by bard earned experience. For this
reason alone we believe he Is especially fitted
to edit = poultry paper. And We are more
than gratified to receive q copy Of \ new poul.
try paper. entitled Farm Poultry,-w herein
Bro. Hunter figures as having entire charge Of
the editorial columns. The paper Is to be pub
ished monthly from the house Of 1. s. John
son h Co., Boston, Mass, and Is to be devoted
try, on farms and In the suburbs Of towns.
"How to make money with few hens' Ii
the motto Of the new paper. Ii any one can
give points on that motto, It Is Mr.. Hunter;
for be has the faculty Of making bis hens lay
when prices are highest. Last year i13 pullets
and II year old hens paid him S157 In one hun
bred and fifty-four days, during the winter, a
record not easily beaten. The publishers pro-
pose TO give the readers Of Farm Poultry from
eight to twelve pages Of new, fresh. live, In
teres,ing experiences OF practical persons 10
each number, all for the small sum of fifty
cents per year. A list of breeders and market
men will be published monthly, worth many
times the cost, to any one desiring to buy or
sell poultry and eggs. On receipt of 80 cents
in stamps. l. s. johnson 4 Co., will send the
paper to any address, one full year, or q sam
Die copy for five cents. Address, Farm PoHl-

excuse as to limited time. The "veiled
prophets" procession in St. Louis is
generally a gorgeous and glowing
spectacle, but it is eclipsed by the
trades procession because the latter is
fully understood by the masses, and
there is an interest in the familiar
names, as they one by one appear,
which elicits pride of almost owner

The BAzoo trusts that this year the
trades procession the FIRST night of the
fair will be represented by every bust
ness man. every business woman in
town. There is chance for unique
advertising in the trades procession
which cannot be over estimated and
which no business man can afford to
neglect. Thousands will note the
neat, or picturesque advertising float
and its memory will not soon fade
away when it is viewed several times
In a procession and hence to neglect
being thus represented is sheer want
of energy. Let not the preparation
of the float be delayed until the last
moment, either, but see to it that it is
ready to start whenever the pro-
cession is ready to start. Numerou:
business men last year asserted they
had no time to prepare a proper float
to represent them in the trades pro
cession, and hence they did not pre-
pare any. This year the fair associa
ton has given everybody ample time
in which to fairly "spread themselves

The best medical writers claim
that the, successful remedy for nasal ca

remedy has completely met these condi-

cede this fact. The more distressing
