therefore, keep from food twelve hours
before killing. All poultry, but more
especially turkeys, should be killed by
bleeding In the neck, and picked while
the body is warm; and in no case
hould poultry be scalded; wet-picked
poultry Is not wanted in this market,
and will not sell for what it is really
worth. AS soon as the poultry is
picked, take off the head at the throat,
strip the blood out of the neck, peel
back the skin a little, remove a portion
of h neck bone, then just before pack
ing, except In warm weather, draw the
skin over the end and tie and trim
neatly. Draw the intestines, making
the nclslon as small as possible, and
leave the gizzard, heart, etc, in. Pull
out the wing and tail feathers clean.
Undrawn poultry IA be sold to a
limited extent when there is no other
to be had, provided there is no food in
the crop, or entrails, but as a rule has
to go at very low prices.
Packing.-Poultry should be entirely
cold, but not frozen, before being
packed. If packed with the animal
heat In, it will be almost sure to spoil.
Sort your poultry carefully, and have
the No. 1 stock of uniform. quality.
Pack the No. 2 stock in separate pack
ages. fyOu have any old bull turke
put them in a separate package or with
No. 2 stock. Line the boxes with clean
paper, but never use straw in packing
and wrap the birds in paper. Pack as
closely as possible, backs upward, legs
out straight, and see that the boxes are
so full that when the covers are nailed
on, there can be no possibility Of the
contents shifting about. Boxes are
the best packages, and should contain
from 100 to 300 pounds. Larger boxes
are inconvenient to handle, and more
liable to get injured.

WHERE THE soUTH'S MONEY
GOES.

Under the above heading the SGUon
nah NeaCs breaches a sermon against
the disposition of Southern people of
all classes, from cotton planters to cot
ton commission merchants, to specu-
late in cotton. The Ne1Cs very truly
says that specializing in cotton on the
part of Southern people is almost as
much a waste of money as investing in
lottery tickets. Prices are not regu-
lated by the law of supply and demand,
except, in the long run covering a
period of years, when they may move
up or down or a general average as,
supply and demand may regulate, but
the sp~eculator who attempts to make
money on short time operations is very

IMPORTANT NOTICE.

| desire to call the attention of the
members of the Alliance who have
still, notes and unpaid accounts for fer
tilizer, to the fact that the Durham
Fertilizer Company have been ex-
tremely lenient with them during the
financial depression, and have waited
on the Alliance people and have car
ried their notes and accounts in a time
when it was extremely i~nconvenient to
them, and caused them many hard
ships, but they did this with the pur-
pose of protecting and helping the ALI
ance brethren when they sOrely needed
this help. Brethren, you now have
your crops on hand, and while these
products may be very low, you owe 1t
to yourselves, to your Alliance and to
the company, to pay at once all that is
due for fertilizer. Let me beg you and
insist that you will at once send to the
company any. sums that you may be
due them. They must have this money
to furnish usfertilizer again this spring,
and a payment to them now means a
credit to you again in the spring. So
do not delay another day, but send the
money to them at once This Is I'M
portant and must be attended to at
once.
We are going to furnish you the same
high grade goods that we have done
heretofore, and do all we can to accom-
modate you this year, but to get this
favor you must pay up what you owe.
Fertilizers are ready for shipment
now for the spring trade, and you can
send in your order.

dumps into Wall street millions of dol

it. It is within bounds to say that

FERTILIZER FOR COTTON.

In response to a frequent inquiry by
the brethren in regard TO giving cotton
for fertilizer, l have succeeded in OBJ
tanning a contract which may be of
service. For 300 pounds of middling
cotton, delivered f o. b. at your depot,
not later than the first day of Novem-
Der, 1894, you can get a ton of N. @.
Alliance Official guauo, the guano to
be shipped from any point you may
prefer from which the company ships.
You pay freight on the fertilizer, the
company pays freight on cotton.
No v, bear in mind that the cotton
must be middling, and if it does not
grade up to middling, you will have to
pay the difference between the price OF
middling and the grade you deliver.
You will also be required to guarantee
the weight Of cotton so delivered, or
have it weighed by a sworn weigher at
point of shipment. Of course your
shipments of cotton must be made &C
cording to direction of the company.
All brethren wishing to avail them
selves of this opportunity, will please
direct their correspondence to Durham
Fertilizer Company, Durham, N. O.,
who will give all the information de-
sired. In no case write to this office
about this matter.
The above arrangement does not in
any way effect our present contract.

tised and sent out from this Office are
without interest and payable at the
dates mentioned. If not paid at ma
turity, interest will be charged.

Deafness Cannot be Cnred

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure Deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inhamed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When this
tube gets inflamed you have rumbl-
ing sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed Deafness is
the result, and unless the inflamma-
ton can be taken out and this tube re-
Stored to its normal condition, hearing
will be destroyed forever; nine cases
out of ten are caused by catarrh, which
is nothing but an irfamed condition of
the mucous surfaces.

PENCE is getting into hot water in
congress, but he is too much for his
assailants. He is an ardent free sill
yer man and will always carry with
him the full sympathy of the en- tire
west, Pence is a gallant, eloquent and
fearless man, and aside from some of
his populistic vagaries is one of the
ablest representatives of the people
on the floors of congress. He is
thoroughly western and that goes, or
should 90, a long way with western
people. Pence is no coward. He is
brave TO fault and has very rugged
way of calling spade spade. The
similarity between him and our own
and only Rawlins is very marked. The
writer knows Pence long and init
mately. A truer democrat does not
live, and the only reason he is lined up
with the populists is the course of
Cleveland on silver.

President Lincoln said, "You cannot

are too quick to recognize real merit
lack of it, and cling only to those thing
which they find to be what is claimed

1t is especially gratifying that the
sale of Hoods Sarsaparilla increases
most rapidly in those sections where it
is best known.
The inference is plain. Hoods Sars-
aparilla has proven that it possesses
genuine merit. It maintains high
