sweiIed Heads and Eyes.

A majority of the inquiries received
by us are in regard to blindness,
swollen heads and eyes and ratings
in the throat. Nearly all of these diff
culties are due to drafts of air on the
birds at night, Usually from overhead;
but nail hole or crack in the wall is
sufficient to cause whole flock to be
i'll. Fowls can sometimes endure cold
weather, but currents of air are injuri-
GUS. The remedy is to prevent the
currents, and to anoint the eyes and
face with "a few drops Of u mixture of
one part spirits of turpentine and two
parts sweet oil, and also to force ten
drops down the throat in cases Of

of American Weed Pests.
The following description of what
promises to be one of the worst weed
pests of Ohio is by Prof. August d.
Shelby, secretary of the Columbus hor-
ticultural society:
"Priclsly lettuce CLactuca Scariola)
is one of the many examples of intro
duced plants which thrive well here.
1t is, in fact, to be put among our
troublesome weeds. 1t is composite,
as are the ox-eye daisy, ragweed, this
tie, etc, and grows from to G feet in
height. 1t is biennial, sometimes an
nual, with very lcafy stem at this
period of its growth, the lower part of
stem and lower surface of midrib of the
leaves beset with prickles. The leaves
are alternate, to inches long, rarely
exceeding one and three-fourth inches
in width at widest part, clasping at
base with conspicuous ears extending
backward. and are wider toward the
end. The edges are irregular and
priclsly-toothed. The leaves, though
not SO large, in shape and color strong
ly resemble the Cos varieties OF culti-
vated lettuce. The plant is closely re-
lated to the cultivated lettuce o. Sativa),
which was formerly referred to this
species as q variety. Once carefully
note the appearance and shape of the
leaves and it will oe an easy matter for
one 10 recognize this weed.
1.-THE flowers, or heads more proper
1y, come in branching clusters in July
and later, are small and yellow, con-
tanning on an average to IL separate
flowers
'The plant is introduced from Eu-
rope and first made it's appearance in
| Ohio at Toledo in 1878. 1t appeared at
Painesville in 1879. and was first OBJ
served upon the university farm at
Columbus in 1882. In the edition of
| Gray's Botany bearing date of 1867, it
is mentioned as growing about Cam
bridge, Mass.
'From personal observation / can
state that it is becoming introduced
everywhere in Franklin county, and
reports from other parts of the state
indicate the same state of things else
where. There is scarcely another plant
that has spread SO rapidly over the
country. To show how rapidly it is
capable of spreading, Miss Detmers, OF
the Experiment station, last summer
made an estimate from the plants
growing at the corner of King and Neil
avenues, this city, with the following
startling result: Plants to square foot

take them, you will be cured of your

remedy. They contain no taste Of

sistently, they will certainly cure you,
They come in two sizes. The small
size ten cents, large size twenty-five
cents. Any druggist will get them

when we bear in mind the fact that
each one of these numerous seeds, as
in it's near. relative, the dandelion, is
provided with copious pappus which
is sufficiently buoyant to enable it to
go with the wind anywhere, we can
better understand its rapid spread and
promised extension.

cuttings with scythe or hoe at this time

ing, ought to eliminate them wherever
started Once cutting at the proper
time will destroy the plants growing,
but the liability to find others the sue
ceeding season must be remem bered.
'As stated before, this cutting should
be done before the plant has begun to
ripen its seed, and the safe time is be-
fore blossoming.
''This is the year to begin to fight
this weed. while it is yet confined to
roadsides and waste grounds and be-
fore it has spread to remoter portions
of the farms of the state.

may invade all pastures and fence rows

Gus weeds of the state"

The Deadly Frying-Pan.

THIS familiar kitchen utensil has to
answer for much of the dyspepsia COM
mon among Americans. To the diges-
ton Of the hunter, the soldier, or the
cowboy, who spend their lives in the
open air, fried meat is not perhaps a
foe, but the professional OF business
man Of the city should shun half cooked
OF overdone food as an abomination.
Time was when the way-station lunch
counter with it's specimens Of pre-his-
toric cookery was all that stood between
the traveller and starvation. Now, on
the Burlington Route at least, the tou-
rist can bid defiance to dyspepsia and
indigestion so far as they arise from ill
cooked food OF forced haste in eating.
