GEESE ARE STUPID:
to an Old Poultryman Thev
Can't stand a RainstOrm
When Thirsty,

"Geese are peculiar" said an old
poultry salesman in Manhattan mar
ket. Put them out in rainstorm
when they have good thirst on and
they are liable to die. About ten years
ago was engaged by firm to go out
through the west and buy live geese
and chickens. I bought ten car loads,
put them in crates and started east.
The geese were in the crates nearest
the floor of the open car-that's the
regular way to ship them-and on top
:ofthem were piled the chicken crates.
/; eve got about ten miles from St. Jo-
seph, Mo-, when the load on one of the
cars sagged, and the whole pile of
crates was spilled on the side of the
track. In piling the crates on again
the geese. were placed on top. knew
: was taking chances, because rain
storm meant. death to the geese, but
there didn't: seem to be any storm in
sight, and I thought we could make
ST. Joseph and shift the load there.
The train had only gone short dis
lance when storm came up so sud
denly that the rain was falling almost
a. soon as the clouds were noticed.
The geese had been without water for
some hours, and the moment they felt
the rain they We're stretching their
,necks through the openings between
the Stats and holding their bills open
tos:cat ch the drops. Well, got1an old
coat and laid it over as many. Of the
crates as,it would cover, SO as to save
as many as possible. Then got
switch and tried to force the others to
keep their heads. inside the crates.
They didn't mind the switch very
much, and I had to give each one four
or five good hits before it would pull in
it's head, and when started on a new
head the old one would pop up again.
When we got into St. Joseph it was
still raining. and every goose in the
| top crates with the exception of those
under the coat was dead. Whether
they died from drinking too much or
from drinking while their necks were
il an unnatural position I do not
know, but every man who has handled
live geese knows that a thirsty goose
in rainstorm in a crate is as good as
dead. I've never told of this peculiar
ity about geese without being doubt ed
but you just ask any poultryman if it
isn't true."-N.,Y. Sun. VI: Co..

COOP FOR FEEDING CHICKENS. -

in their yard one of the coop runs, q
triangular frame of laths, used earlier
in the season to confne mother hens
near. their coop. I have a dozen of
these runs. They are the length of
lath and allow little chicks free ingress
and egress, while the mother can but
put her head through the slots. The
open end of the run, placed against
the yard fence and dish of cracked
corn was constantly kept inside which
the larger chickens could not reach.
The little fellows quickly learned, when
hungry, to dart between the Stats of
this run and eat their fill, safe from the
greed Of the grown flock. 49,
After the snow came, the run was
placed in the henhouse, the space be-
tween laths increased to allow free pas
sage of this half grown. brood, and the
dish of cracked corn constantly kept re-
plenished. It has proved just the right
food for this late Matched brood, but I
doubt if it would be healthy diet for
chicks coming from the shell in hot
weather.-American Agriculturist.

A HANDY BUILDING.
Upper Story Is a Workshop and Tool
House, the Basement a Comfort

One of the great drawbacks with
some farmers IS that their outbuild-
ings are not arranged conveniently or
with any thought of economy. This.:is
something during these days of ra pid
progress and desperate competition
that will not do. Saving in little things
may often seem too trivial, we admit,
but il not carried to the point of
penny wise and pound foolish it is
what helps to plant the most gigantic
stones in the pyramid of any industry.
How many farmers have sunk for
tunes in machinery of every descrip-
ton simply for the want of properly
housing and taking care of it! Then,
numerous are the dollars paid out

The Horse ana His Teeth.

When horse does not. appear to
thrive as he should on his food. and
the most careful observation fails to
account for his condition, it is wise to
have his teeth carefully examined, es-
pecially the back jaw teeth or molars.
An irregularity Of these is often the
unsupported source of the evil. The
molars occa sionally wear iirregularly;
sometimes the upper. border overlap

while the internal surface Of the lower

ELY'S CREAM BALM combines the
important requisites of quick action and
specific curative powers with perfect
safety to the patient. This agreeable
remedy has mastered catarrh as nothing
else has, and both physicians and pa

the acme of Pharmaceutical skill has
been reached. The most distressing
symptoms quickly yield to it. In acute
cases the Balm imparts almost instant
