RENEWING THEIR YOUTH

Two .vets."


From the World Herald. Omaha. Nsb.
A W0rld-Herald reporter was attracted by
the evidence OF renewed activity OF some OF
the older inhabitants Of the village of Bruce,
o suburb OF Omaha, Mob, and enquired the
cause. Mr.. Andrew Finlxenkeler who was
q member OF Company B OF tho First Iowa
Volunteers during the war, made the follow
Ing explanation so far as ho himself is con-
cerncd:
"In July, 1896, while my company was on
tho march through to Austin, Texas, was
attacked with rheumatism OF the worst
kind in one leg MT Alexander, La. Being
weak was sunstruck and remained un-
conscious for several hours. Every sum
NOR since have been unable TO stand tho
heat Of the sun, and have been compelled 10
give up my work. There was ia my head
a bearing-down feeling which increased
until IL seemed my head would burst, aud
II caused q ringing in my ears, and pnlpita-
ton of the heart set ia, so that the slightest
noise would set my heart humping. Sew
eral times IL has rendered me unconscious
for from seven TO ten hours at a time. In
addition 20 this the rheumatism extended
up my entire side until IL drew my head
down on my shoulder. lost my strength
and flesh and was totally unfit for work.
"For twenty-eight years have consulted
physicians and taken their prescriptions
without deriving any material benefit. My
ailments increased In intensity until was
assured that there was no hcpcfor me. Dur
ing last year went into the butcher BUSH
ness, but the dampness from the ice used In
creased my rheumatic pains to such an ex-
tent thatI was not only compelled to quit
the business, but was confined 10 my house

1t Is not n good plan to keep food be-
fore flock OF hons all the time. If
this Is done thoy will get fat and lazy
and not take enough exercise TO keep
them in laying condition. 1t is the
best plan TO have fixed time for feed
ing fowls, especially at night. and not
feed them at irregular intervals. II
they are fed at about the same time
every evening they will soon learn
when TO come for IL and will be con-

many OF them will stay close 90 the

FARM AND GARDEN.


Old Methods Which Have been Tried and
Never Found Wanting.
There Is no known method by which
eggs can be kept TO be equally good as
fresh eggs, but there are many ways
OF preserving them so as 10 make fair
substitute for use in the kitchen. The
great object To be attained Is TO pre-
vent evaporation. Cutting of the air
from the contents of the shell pre-
serves them longer than any other
treatment At present cold storage Is
considered the best method of prcserv-
ing eggs, but few have the necessary
facilities. and where the amount Is
small one of the following recipes
will be found acceptable:
Eggs may be preserved by packing
small end down In salt. sand or dry
bran, care being taken that they do
not touch each other. They must be
well covered with the packing mate
rial and kept in a cool place. II pre-
ferred, they may be wiped before pack
ing with vaseline. to VIII ich salicylic
acid has been added, or given coating
of salt butter. OF covered w it'll spirit
varnish made by dissolving gum
sh ellac in alcohol.
For preserving in lime pickle Is
made in tho following way; Take
twenty-four gallons Of water, twelve
pounds Of unslaclSed lime and four
pounds OF salt. or in that proportion,
according 20 the quantity of eggs TO
be preserved. Stir several times daily
and then let stand Until the liquor has
settled and is perfectly clear. Draw
or carefully dip off tho clear liquid,
leaving the sediment at the bottom.
Take five ounces each of baking soda,
cream OF tartar, saltpeter and borax
and an ounce Of alum. Pulverize and
mix these and dissolve in gallon Of
boiling water, and add to the mixture
about twenty gallons of pure lime
water. This will about fill cider bar
rel. Lower the eggs in carefully in a
basket or colander, SO as not to crack
any Of the shells, letting the water al
ways stand an inch above the eggs,
which can be done by placing barrel
head little smaller upon them and
weighing it, The eggs should remain
I'm the brine until ready for use. If 1t
evnporates more water may be added,
but the pickle should never be used
more than once. These proportions
will give brine enough to preserve
about one hundred and fifty dozen
eggs.

POULTRY ON FARMS.
No other Work That Affords as Much
Pleasure and Profit.

No Other Work That Affords as Much
Pleasure and Profit
There Is no other work on the farm,
perhaps, that affords more pleasure,
and often profit IL well managed, as
the care of the poultry. In the first
place, the chicken house should be
free from lice and vermin. The
chicken coops should be made so that
they can be quickly cleaned; board
floors IRE best for early chickens,
ground floors will do later; both
should be cleaned often and sprinkled
with dry dust and lime. Stale bread
dipped in sweet or sour milk, with the
scrapings from the table, makes a food
for young chickens. Fat meat the ref
use of hams, shoulders and sides, cut
fine and fed to them twice week will
both cure and prevent gapes. tried
this experiment about five years ago
with flock of chickens that were bad
ly afflicted with gapes. The result
was, the chickens were entirely cured
of gapes We have not had the gapes
since, and have used it ever since as
preventive.
Hens may be set as early as February
or March, IL comfortable quarters are
prepared for them. Five or six hens
can be set at one time, as fifty chick
ems are as easily taken care of as
twenty-five IL the coops are not scat
tered. One hen can take care of twenty
chickens. Select the tamest hens; they
always make the best motherS A

One tablespoonful OF copperas dis
solved in water and mixed with six
quarts OF mill feed will keep the
poultry healthy. This is enough for a
hundred fowls. Dandelion cut up and
mixed with the feed keeps young tur-
keys healthy. Mrs v. McCaughey, in
