LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE.
Gapes in Chickens.

Editor of Ue NeI0s:
 In reply to your query about "gspes in chickens" I would say: Where chick ems are often raised something gets in to the soil which, wheu eaten by the chickens, will make red worms in the wind pipe.
 When chickens are matched put them on fresh soil some distance from where any have been raised before, and they will not have the gapes.
 Spirits of turpentine will prevent or cure them if the chickens can be made to eat or breathe it. Pull a hair from a horses tail, double and twist it until there is a small loop in the end, put down the chickens wind-pipe, twist and withdraw, and you get the worms and the chicken is cured.
 Prevention Is better than cure. Have raised thousands of chickens.
 Many will tell you to feed this and that, and it will prevent or cure; it is all bosh. There is no feed that makes the gapes; there is none that will prevent, unless spirits of turpentine is put in it.
 Yours Truly,
 NJ. O. DEAN, South Canaan, June 13, 1892.

4 CUTE ROOSTER.
Editor of Netcs :

Editor of Netos
 MT Daniel Brewster, of this place, is the owner of rooster that takes to the human side of creation as duck to wa ter. He will have nothing to do with his own tribe, but chooses to mingle with more intelligent class.
 Mir Brewster. since he has so far re- covered from his recent sickness, Is now often seen in his carriage on the street, accompanied by his sturdy rooster perched upon his knee, as much at home as if he owned the whole establishment If he can't whistle. he can make it up IE growing. and thereby shows his pleasure to all beholders. When in the house, if any one should put his foot out in a menscing position, he would take it as an insult and would give it a good threshing. He will not allow the hens to go in the garden, neither a cat to be in the house or about the premises. If children come into the dooryard his ire IS up at once and they have got to be missing or take the consequences, and no mistake. He will lie on the lounge with any of the family and take a nap; likes to sit in a hammock and be swung and at the same time will sing his best song. He watches at the door for the carriage to take ride, and will do many other pleasing things. Is not quite hu- man but makes himself very agreeable to his friends; is fond of cider and milk punch.
 The bird has no pedigree, but was matched one year ago from a stray egg that got iuto turkeys nest one week after the turkeys and was raised by hand. He is surely prodigy of his kind rarely to be found. NJ. Falls Village, Conn, June 10, 1899.

Loud Call for Ex-Senator Bartram.
 The Sharon correspondent of the Ame mia Times says: During the severe thunder and rain storm last Thursday afternoon, Mir I. N. Bartram and MT Charles Squires were coming home through Caulkinstown, when a sudden bolt of lightning flashed in front of them and their horse fell to the ground, stunned by the shock. As soon as the two gentlemen recovered from the ef- fleets of the shock, MT Bartram said :; Well, guess the horse is dead" But such did not prove to be the fact, for in short time the animal regained its feet It was narrow escape, however, and one they nor any one else care to again experience.

 National Tribune.I
 The sugar plantation now owned by ex-Governor Warmoth is one of the oldest in the State, and during the war was managed by very virulent Seces- sionist, and his employer seemed to be the same. In the day-book of the plan tation, under the date ses apart by the rebels for prayer, occurs the following entry:
 TUESDAY, Is JUNE, 1861.
 ''This day is set apart by President Jeffer- son Davis for fasting and prayer, owing to the deplorable condition our Southern coun- try is in. My prayer sincerely to God is that every Black Republican in the whole com hined world either men, women, or children, that is opposed to negro slavery, as it existed in the Sou hern Coufederacy, shall be troub- led with pestilances and calamities of all kinds and drag out the bf.lance of their exis- tence in misery and degradation, with scarce ly food and raiment enough to keep soul and body together; and, O God, I pray Thee to direct a bullet or a bayonet to pierce the heart of every Northern soldier that invades Southern soil, and after the body has render ed up its traitorous soul give it traitors re- ward, a berth in the lake of fire and brim. stonel My honest co viction is that every man, woman, and child that has given aid to | the Abolitionists are fit subjects for hell. I | also ask Thee to aid the Southern Confeder- acy in maintaining our rights in establishing | the Confederate Government, Believtng in this case, the prayers from the wicked will prevaileth much. Amen"

South Canaan, June 13. 1892.

In response to your call for cure for gapes in chickens, last week, I will say I had four years experience with the disease, Syagamus TrdchaeliS, and lost heavily by its ravages. tried every ra- tional method of treatment known-no horse hairs or clover heads-and can say that it is very rarely that any chick is cured, only by decapitation, of the dis ease. The disease is very disastrous when once established on a person s premises and if not destroyed, will be reproduced from year to year.

 An exchange says: The effort ot any newspaper to build up a town is practically nulliied unless it IS backed up by the business men of the town. A stranger turns from the news columns of paper to it's advertising columns and if he fails to find there the bushes, cards of the merchants and professions firms, he comes to the conclusion that the editor is not appreciated in whicf case it is good place to keep clear from. No town ever grew without the assistance of it's papers Nor can pa pers grow, and build up their localities .Il- lI- Al ID mess men should realize this and re member that in lending support to thei local paper they are not only building up their own business, but are helpinl to support that which is steadily work ing for the growth of the whole town.
