FELT LIKE GETTING RIGHT UP IN MEETING
AND CONTRADCTING.-We listened the Other
day to an address delivered by an able and
wellknawn authority on pOultry-raising. II
was very practical. aud abounded in good
common sense; but it lost all of its value and
force in one remark. 1t was one that is more
or less true, and is common to the average
poultry article" in the newspapers. It was
this: IF you want eggs be careful aud not
have your hens fat We felt like getting
right up i'll meeting and contradicting. This
is not our experience; and it makes no differ,
ence who says it, it is a mistake 1t requires
qualification. A hen made fat by fat-forming
foods like corn-meal, is apt to be too fat to
lay; but one that is fed on the Prolific Poul-
try Food will be plump and round and 'Iav
all the time In this essential the Food has
no rival. There are preparations fed for the
same purpose that MAKE hens law" but the
hens are as of flesh as if fed on oats. Not so
the Prolific Food. Mixed with the morning
mess the hens will not only return many times
the cost IN the increased production of eggs.
put the hen can be taken from her nest for
the table and be as fit for 1t as a Young cock
erel. More than this,-there is no prenara-
ton more economical. Only small quantities
are fed, and the cost is but % cents n nound
of any druggist or scotsman. or direct from

tlon, leading to diseased conditions. but
Keeps the hens healthy, and especially free
from roup and cholera, and such pernicious

Senator Morrill's retirement, Judge
Powers-in Congress and in "the

ask for the election. Il belong to

my claims on my ability and fitness

should fail at this time, when Senator
Edmunds retires the Judge could,
with equal grace, ask that he be sent
to Washington as the successor of
his position would be the same, and
his appeal on the score of ability
would find response from a State eX-
tremely proud of it's present influence
in the Senate, and sure to be anxious
to continue it.
