The Florida agriculturist. [volume] (DeLand, Fla.) 1878-1911, 1896-05-06

A special from DeFuniak to the Citizen
says: Miss Annie Moore. daughter of
Thomas Moore, farmer living eight
miles from here was burned to death by
her clothes catching fire from trash pile
that she was assisting to burn. Her
fathers hands were so badly burned in
an attempt to save her that he will prob
ably lose the use of them.

with corn meal and baking, to feed dogs.
In summer when the hens have free
range little green bone in the morning
and little wheat or grain of some kind
at night will be all they will need, the
amount to give depending on the range
they have, Farm and Fireside.

Green Bone.

It is settled fact that meat is good
to make hens lay, but it is very costly
food. screen bones," as they are
called. contain great amount of this
meat and many other elements that go
to make an egg.
By green bones we mean the beef
scraps that can be obtained at the meat
marketfor almost nothing, as they either
throw them to the hogs or give them to
their customers to give to their dogs.
A lso it might include the bones and
scraps obtained from the home butcher
ing Or some animal upon the farm that
has become useless and will make good
feast for the hens when cut up.
1t has been found to be one OF the best
and far the cheapest of foods, in general,
that can be found, as butcher shops exist
in all parts of the country in one form Or
another.
The mineral part of the bone helps TO
make the yolk and shell. while the animal
juices go to form the yolk, ia part, and
white. The hard pieces form the best Of
grit, being sharpened by the cutting pro-
cess the bones go through.
AS THE is concentrated food it should
be given with bulky foods as bran. beets,
clover, cabbage, etc. 1t brings the red
combs forth in a short time and the egg
yield is increased. II you h ve never
used green bone you will be sui plised at
the results.
Young chicks thrive better when fed
on it, but it must not be fed too literally
as it may cause indigestion.
Some cook the bones and meat before
they cut them, making the cutting much
easier and the bones easier to digest.
One ounce TO her fed two or three
times g. week makes a good average for
feeding, but much dep ,nds upon the
flock and other conditions.
The bones cannot be ground, but must
be cut by a machine for that purpose
called ''bone cutter" They can be
had for SIS to SIP that do good work and
will pay for themselves in short time.
I use the Webster & s lannon, which
costs SIP.
To those who have never seen cut
green bone will say thatit much resem'
bles ground sausage meat when cut very
fine.
Green cut bone is also used, by mixing

We know of but one community
in the world where dyspepsia is
practically unknown, and that is
the Shakers Of Mount Lebanon, N,
Y. These good people have been
studying the subject of digestion
for more than hundred years, and
that they understand it pretty thor
oughly is evidenced in the foregoing
fact. Their Digestive Cordial is the
safest and best remedy in cases of
indigestion that we know Of. A trial
bottle can be had through your
druggists for the trifing sum of 10
cents.
The Shaker Digestive Cordial sup
plies the system with food already
digested, and at the same time aids
the digestion of other foods. 1t
will almost instantly relieve the or
dinary symptoms OF Indigestion,
and no sufferer need be told what
these are.

ATith a better understanding of the
wv transient nature of the many phys
ical ills, which vanish before proper ef-
forts-gentle efforts-pleasant efforts
rightly directed. There is comfort in
the knowledge, that so many forms OF
sickness are not due to any actual dis
ease, but simply to a constipated condi-
ton of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrup of Figs, prompt
ly removes. That is why it is the only
remedy with millions of families, and is
everywhere esteemed so highly by all
who value good health. Its beneficial
effects are due TO the fact, that lis the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness without debilitating the
organs on which it acts. 1t is therefore
I'll important, in order to get its bene-
fetal effects, to note when you pur-
chase, that you have the genuine arti-
Gle, which is manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co. only and sold by
all reputable druggists.
II in the enjoyment OF good health,
and the system is regular, laxatlves or
other remedies are then not needed. II
afflicted with any actual disease, one
may be commended 10 the most skillful
physicians, but if in need of laxative,
one should have the best, and with the
well-informed everywhere, Syrup OF
Figs stands highest and is most largely
used and gives most general satisfaction

poor girl but bore good reputation.
At the post mortem examination the
jury found that the above named
men were the perpetrators of the
crime and they were at once arrested
and bail fixed at So 900, in default of
which they were comm tilted to Jail.
The evidence against them seems to
be very strong and they will ha We
chance of proving their whereabouts
at the time the deed was committed.

Miss Maude Graves county super
intendent of schools came very near
being severely injured last Monday.
While on the road between John
Harris and J. H. Denton's farms her
horse became frightened and started
to run. Miss Graves retained. her
presence of mind and instead of
jumping from the buggy as ladies
usually do when a horse becomes
frightened and starts to run, hung
onto the lines and kept him in the
road and tried to stop him. This she
could not do and when Mr.. Denton's
place was reached turned him in, bnt
he was going so fast that when the
corner was turned the buggy was
upset throwing Miss Graves out, but
luckily she escaped with only a slight
strain to one arm. Before the horse
could be stopped he had the buggy
pretty badly damaged and injured

LUvERNE WINS.
Luverne Wins at the Whist
Tournament by Point.

The whist tournament at Adrian
Tuesday was attended by teams
from four towns-Luverne, Window,
Adrian and Worthington. Luverne
won, securing net gain Of four points
while Worthington's gain was 3
points. r.
The Worthington club was repre-
sented by R. G.. Conner and E. X.
Smith, Luverne by DR.. Palmer and
Ezra Rice, Window by T. Collins
and VIM Adelbert Smith, Adrian: by
Mr. Cameron and G. G. Spaulding.
The Luverne team won from Win
dom and lost to the other clubs,
while the Worthington team lost to
Window and won from the other two
clubs, but Inverness victory over
Window wasso great that her net
gain amounted to point more than
Worthington's. There seems to be
some question as to whether the vic
tory should be given to the club
which makes the largest net gain or
the one gaining the most victories
If the latter course were taken, our
team would be the winner. Mr..
Briggs, of Minneapolis, an authority
on the game, has been written to con-
corning this matter and his decision
will be the guide for future tourna-
ments.
Another tournament will be held
in this city in the course of month.
