Expenses of Keeping Poultry.

When we are asked if one can engage
in the poultry business and make it pay
we find 1T impossible to give salts
factory reply, as tAequestion is one that
permits of two constructions If it is
made business, the poultryman, to
give it his whole attention, must do
enough business to at least pay for his
time. just how many hens he should
keep to do this depends on his necessi-
ties, but should he fail to keep suta-
cient number to occupy his whole time
he will lose, not through any lack of op-
portun;ties of deriving profit from the
hens, but from emitting the most i'm
portant matter, that of cheapening his
labor by bestowing it to the best ad-
vantage. On the other side, few henh
will pay because the labor given them
is not taken from any other pursuit. The
large fiocks entail expense of labor.
while the small fiocks cost nothing in
that respect. Farm and Firaside

We are disposed to doubt IL. Warmen enlisted
when ffty-one years DID, and is now seventy
nine. Does not one of our correspondents know
OF an older Grand Army mani -
Well, ''here's you man." here is one
of your correspondents who knows of an
older onei He is now Hoosier, as he
was when he enlisted, but he was born
Buckeyes; so, if the ''oldest Grand
Army man" is to outrank the ''oldest
Mason" who has been a parsonage of
unceasing dispute since the time to
which the memory of man runneth not
back, perhaps we, Indiana, may as well
divide with Ohio the discovery of this
nowto-be distinguished old veteran
right at the jump. His name is Elisha
Mills, ST. He was born in Butler Coun-
ty, o., October 5, 1904. Hence he is in
the seth year of his age. He was
member of the 57th Regiment, I. V. l.,
which was organized in this city,
at "Old Camp Wayne" and left
for the front December 1S, 1861.
He now lives at Farmland, Randolph
County, this State and belongs to
Moses Heron Post, G. A. R., No. 261.
His record there is that he enlisted in
August 1852, but whether that is mis-
take and should be August 1861, or
whether it is true that he was assigned
to the 57th after it had left here, (pre-
vious December), your correspondent
does not know, and on that point de-
pends whether he was nearly 81
or SO years of age when he enlisted. In
any evont, however, he was older, when
he enlisted, by at least six years, and is
older now by at least six years, than
''the man from Maine" that the Boston
papers boast about. He participated in
the battle of Shiloh and Corinth, was
under fire for fifteen days, and
took in the marches and hardships of
his regiment until September, 1868,

JOE PARKER,s JOKE.
How n Fun-Lovlng. Captain Spread tho
News of n Generals Death.

How n Fun-Lovlng Captain Spread tho
News of n Generals Death.
Only this week was reading General
Doubleday's story of Gettysburg, and
the day before had seen the old Gem
eral on the street. His presence in New
York and his book combine to recall to
my mind a very practical joke that was
played upon him at Gettysburg by Cap
tain Joe Parker, of General HancoclS's
staff. Colonel Billy Wilson and Joe
Parker were General Hancock's pets.
They we're both young, full of mischief,
and only saw the ludicrous side Of every
thing, no matter how serious.
In the very white heat of the battle
on Cemetery Hill, July 3, 1868, General
Hancock was severely wounded, and
Captain Parker Immediately rode off to
find General Doubleday, who was the
senior division commander, and put him
in command of the Second Corps. He
found Doubleday sitting under big tree.
He saluted him quickly, and said:
General Doubleday, General Ham
cock has been seriously wounded, and
you will -"
Just ct that moment, before he had
time to finish the sentence, "assume
command of the corps" shell burst di-
rectly over the General. The shock half
stunned him, and he fell over, exclaim-
ing:
''Oh, am killed! I am killed."
Captain Parker coufdn resist this op-
portunity for joke, and he rode Off
rapidly in search of General Gibbon. He
found him and reported to him that
Doubleday had been killed and Han
cock had been wounded and that he was
to take command of the corps. The news
spread rapidly that Doubleday was dead,
and Captain Parker so reported to Gem
eral Hancock. A few hours later rail-
road train containing Hancock, his staff
and number of wounded officers was
moving toward Baltimore. Hancock was
lying on a stretcher suffering intensely,
but his mind and sympathy went out to-
ward his division commanders and his
other officers who were dead or wounded.
cts too bad about Doubleday's DEATH"
said one wounded officer sitting near
him, who was shot in the arm.
"Doubledoy isn't dead" replied the
/ officer. 81 saw him in command of the
corps after you were wounded and two
hours before left the field"
why, Joe Parker told me that he
was killed." replied Hancock.
Parker, who was in front car with
the boys having fun, was Immediately
summoned. He appeared before Han
cock, who said:
Captain Parker, didn't you tell me
that General Doubleday was killed."
Certainly 1 did" replied Joe. HE
told me was, and what the devil else
was l to do but to take his word for it?"
Despite the suffering in the car there
was hearty laugh, and Parker went
back to his companions. As he closed
the car door Hancock remarked:
''That boy will never see any thing
serious in the most serious things of this
life"
Poor Joe Parker and his counterpart,
Colonel Wilson, are both dead, while
the old General of whom General Han
cock told this amusing story walks along
Broadway apparently as healthy and
hearty as q man of fifty.-N. Y Star.

Sweet Potato Culture.

1 have for several years been prac-
ticing a plan not universal. Bed out
sufficient potatoes in the spring to plant
your entire patch. Be sure to finish
setting out by the last day of June. If
you do not the chances are that the
last planting will not be thoroughly ripe
and when dug they will be mixed with the
others, causing the whole lot to decay.
In bedding up land for sweet potatoes
have your rows two and one-half to
three feet apart. Throw them up as
high as possible with plow, and rake
them still higher with hoes. Put out
the slips about eighteen inches apart in
the drill, and not, upon any account,
break the bed. Do not bar off; always
bear in mind that sweet potato is
simply an enlargement of the root, and
that whenever you bar off, or otherwise
break the bed, you break the roots
(Which are potatoes in embryo) and
thereby make your potatoes late, as
we'll as iniuring them. The final yield
will not be as great as if the roots had
not been disturbed. In place of plowing
your potatoes, as soon as the vines have
made growth of six to twelve inches,
scrape the ridges down lightly with a
hoe, not over half an inch deep, remov-
ing all grass and weeds. Then if you
wish, wide sweep can be run between
the rows. Your potatoes are now laid
by and nothing more is necessary for
them until digging. I have had good
sized potatoes on the table the second
Sunday in June by this plan.-Farm

BEE SMOKERS.
A Simple Device That Will Enable Any

A Simple Device ThaG Will Enable ANY
One to Handle Bees with Impunity.
We give, with this article, a cut of a
bee smoker. There are various smok-
ers of different makes, but they are
practically made on the same principle.
1t seems to be the supposition of great
many people that certain persons only
are adapted to working with bees, and
with some supernatural influence that
they have over bees, they are per-
mitted to do about as they please with
them, and no resistance is offered. Now
we wish to explain just how far this in
fuence goes and who are capable of
using this influence. To be expert at
any thing we must study it thoroughly.
There is much no doubt in this, and any
one we'll acquainted with the nature of
bees can to some extent do much more
with them than those that have no
knowledge of their nature.
But the fact of the matter is, it is not
in the person who handles bees, but al
together in the condition of the bees at
that particular time, as to the manner
in which we can handle tlom- Bees

it can be raised when the trough needs
cleaning out. 1t inclines at such an
acute angle that the fowls can not make
a roost of it, and the food is kept per-
sfectly free from all impurities. 1t is
about four inches wide and can be made
of any desired length. This trough
takes up very little room, and is especi-
ally useful for keeping granulated bone,

when thoroughly filed with honey are
perfectly gentle and will never venture
an attack. This is why bees are so
gentle during the honey season, and
why swarms are so gentle that they will
allow you to carry them around and put
them in hive. Bees always fill them
selves with all the honey they can pos
sibly carry when swarming. 1t was as
certained in early Bookkeeping that
when bees are alarmed they would thus
fill themselves with honey, and smoke
was used for the purpose, and hence the
invention of the smoker. 1t is with this
instrument that we have complete con-
troll over bees.
By its use any one can handle bees
with perfect safety. As we said above,
during the honey season, or at a time
when bees are gathering honey, they
are more easily handled without smoke,
but at other times we seldom can do
much without smoke. From fear of
bees many do not keep them that would
otherwise do so. This is very silly, for
there is nothing whatever in it, but
only ignorance ON the subject. One
thing is very true-that when person
unused to handling bees approaches a
hive without proper arrangement for
applying smoke he will undoubtedly
get into trouble, and we have no more
excuse for such an act than to throw
ourselves in front OF flying train OF
cars.-Ohio Farmer.

Some Improved Feed-Troughs for Poultry
They Promote Health and Are Eco-
nomica1.
Soft poultry food thrown on the
ground or on a board is quickly trampled
and befouled so that it is unfit to eat.
Placing it in shallow pan or trough
helps the matter little if any. The best
course is to use covered troughs or pans
which permit them to obtain the food
and at the same time keep them out Of
it with their feet. For small chicks a
double trough is made of tin, as shown
in Fig. 1. tits twenty-eight inches long
and four inches wide-each half being
two inches wide-and one and one-half
inches deep, with square ends soldered
on. Tin is best, because it is easily

of them, leaning over the fence of the
next yard, suggested pain-killer, and
another at the opposite fence mentioned
pain-paint.
The lady who named pain-liller was
rather the nicer of the two, and Bangs
concluded to try her remedy. He sent
.quantity of killer disguised in sugar
along the route leading to the pain.
The pain evidently knew its business.
Instead of allowing itself to be killed,
it simply gobbled the saccharine-dis-
guised ASSASSIN and kept on its nefar-
ious wod.
Mr.. Bangs next sent down pint of
red pepper thinned with a little boiling
water. 1t burned out every thing but
the pain. The patient followed the
dose in fifteen minutes with another
pint of the same material. The pain
seemed to revive, SO to speak, under the
pepper, and then Mr.. Bangs emptied
into his throat quart of red-hot ginger
tea.
The pain, in circus-poster type, still
retained it's position and continued its
unpleasant wrenchings. 1t was as i'm
pervious to the assaults of ginger tea as
it had been to that of the cayenne and
pain-killer. One who fails to dislodge
an enemy with skirmishers usually
order up light battery. So did Mr..
Bangs. He wheeled into position a
piece charged with castor oil and tur-
pentine. Castor oil can be taken in two
np oiv mill u
vitriol, which prevents it's vile flavor
from making itself felt, or he can shuthis
eyes, open his mouth and-bolt it.
The pain received the discharge OF
castor oil as an alligator would the i'm
pact of dough pellet from a popgun.
ILL.,
When the military commander finds
the enemy impregnable to skirmishers
and his light batteries he will order
heavier artillery into action. Appreci-
ating this fact, Mr.. Bangs ordered the
advance of noted fighter, whose M. d.
was guarantee of his skill and ability.
The M. ID. came about dusk on Thurs
day, and brought with him an ample
supply of heavy ammunition. Now
operations against the enemy We're COM
menced in earnest. The distances and

cissiy ten o'clock vigorous lombard
