CROP-BOUND POULTRY.
Unless a Remedy Is Imme dinteiy hp-
piled Fowls So Afflicted VIII
Die Speedily.

Crop bound is especially prevalent
among fowls in close confinement,
where in their desire to procure green
food they consume large quantities OF
dry grass, and | have observed its be-
ing brought on in at least one case by
eating tea leaves, the whole mass form
ing hard lump in the crop, thus being
indigestible, causing the bird to dump,
and unless remedy is speedily applied,
to die. In one of our exchanges writer
gives the following remedy: First, pro-
cure piece of the smallest size rubber
tube about IS inches in length (this can
be obtained at any drug store); attach
one end to a small tunnel, grease the
other with lard or vaseline for about
four inches, and are ready for business.
Getan assistant to securely hold the sick
bird, now carefully place tube in the
birds mouth and push we'll down the
crop, about four inches of tube will be
required, hold the tunnel slightly above
the fowls head and slowly pour in as
much luke-Warm water as the crop will
hold, about one teacupful. Have the
assistant work the crop carefully dur
ing the process and until the hard mass
becomes softened. Great care should
be taken both in pouring water and
working crop lest the fowl become
choked by water rising in the throat
Next grasp the bird by the legs and hold
head down, gently working crop to as
sist bird to vomit. In most cases one
tri&l is enough to completely empty the
crcD, but in case it is not, let the fowl
rest for half an hour and repeat the
process. This remedy has also been
used by me very successfully in cases
of acute Indigestion. Keep the bird on
soft food with plenty of sharp grit and
charcoal for few days and the cure is

Formation of Coal.

It will be remarked that the deposits
of anthra cite are found in very noun
famous cegions. The difference be-
tween this hard and what are called
the soft Goals was explained to me by
the late Prof William b. Rogers. When
the contraction of the earth's surface
took place by which the mountain
regions of Pennsylvania and few
other parts of the carboniferous series
were formed, these mountains were
thrown up, turned over and twisted in
such a manner as to cause the mate
rials of vegetable origin of which coal
is formed to become coked, or partly
cooked, under extreme pressure. 1t is
due to thnt pressure and accompanying
heat that the anthracite Goals are hard
and virtually free from bitumen; while,
under 9th er conditions, the bituminous
or semi-bituminous Goals are soft and
more friable, containing more bitumin-
Gus elements In some other parts of
the earth's surface where coal is found
the so-called brown Goals and lgnites
have not been subjected to the measure
of heat under pressure sufficient to con-
vert them into true coal.-Edward At
kinson, in Century.

in those gentler virtues, but also in
some sterner aspects of life, the Japan

what she is made of. -. Anyone
who speaks against the purity of the
Japanese woman knows not whereof
he talks, or is a vile slanderer who would
deprive the woman of what is most pre-
cious to her. AS the mistress of the
family she has as much real authority
in the family as her western sister. AS
n mother she is paid great Difference by
her children. IN society a lady is
always treated with respect. There are
some respects in which changes are de-
sirable, but, on the whole, | have nc
hesitation in saying the position of
woman in Japan is very high one.

Vertigo in Geese and Ducks.

The most frequent difficulty with
ducks and geese is that of vertigo. They
drop down on their feet or fall over to
one side suddenly, at times as rapidly
recovering or dying Immediately. This
happens only when ducks or geese are
fed on too much grain. The best sys-
TEN to adopt is to put them in a field
where short grass is abundant, or even
young weeds, and let them get the food
for themselves. They require but very
little food after warm weather comes.
as they are then well over the laying
season, becoming nonproducers. If this
fact is kept in view-that of the non
producers requiring but little food dur
ing warm weather-there would be a
saving in expenses, as well as fewer
losses occurring from disease, but it is
difficult to convince those having good
breeds that there is such thing as
killing with Misunderstanding, too
much.-Farm and Fireside.

HE LEARNED A LESSON.
'he Was Sharp Young Woman and Made
the Facetious Lawyer Walk Home.


the Facetious Lawyer Walk Home.
A spunly West Side young woman
gave budding attorney, who is some
times known as Smart Alec" Smith,
something . think about the other day.
And, as he was forced to walk down
town from far out West Madison street
way, he had plenty of time to ponder
the lesson. He was waiting for cable
car and Tipping half dollar in the air.
BY his side, also waiting for a car, stood
All elegantly-dressed, beautiful and, to
all appearances, honest and refined
young woman. Mr.. Smith was not per-
sonally acquainted with the elegantly
dressed, beautiful young woman, nor,
so far as known, was she with him.
Therefore, he kept Tipping the half
dollar in the air, regardless of her pres
enoe, and catching it in his nimble
palm as it descended.
By and by the expected car came
| along and to stop. AS it stopped Law
yer Smith gave a last flip to the half
dollar before getting on board. AS he
did so the beautifully dressed and beau
tiful young woman stepped forward,
preparatory to mounting the footboard.
Unfortunately she came within Mr..
Smiths sunlight, with the result that
his palm missed the descending half
dollar. The descending half dollar
ratified on the pavement and rolled un-
der the edge of the car. Then, whether
from pique or from sudden accession of
facetiousness, Mr.. Smith did an un-
usual thing. Grabbing up the half dol
| lar, he followed the elegantly dressed,
beautiful young woman into the car,
and holding it out toward her, said
Excuse me, miss, was it you who
dropped this half dollar?"
The elegantly dressed, beautiful
young womans face was suffused with
a blush. ,al,e
p.edsare "F2T # in # returning it to you"
"Well, answered the young woman
her blush growing deeper, well,
don't know as it's my coin, but seeing
you are SO polite about it. guess | can
handle it in my business"
AMI she gently transferred the so
cent piece from Lawyer Smiths palm
fto her own.
The real joke of this story lies in the
fact that so cents was all the money
Lawyer Smith had with him, and that
he had to get off the car and walk to
his stination.-Chicago Chronicle.

Split Ears for Cattle.

Cattle of any age will eat split ears O.
corn without soreness of the mouth,
which frequently results when fed on
whole ears, or on parts of ears which
have been broken crosswise of the cob.
Even calves of nine months will grow
fat upon them. This is a specially de-
sirable way to prepare it to feed to
mich cows. A steer of three years is
not fully provided with grinders, and
even at that age it is hard for him to
masticate whole ears.

BLOOD POISONING.
A Nurses Experience.
She'd rather have one than three.

There are thousands of people suffering
from blood poisoning who have almost
beggared themselves in buying medicines
from which they have obtained no help.
There are thousands of others who first or
last have tried DR.. Ayers Sarsaparilla and
found perfect healing. One of these
others, Mrs. A. r. Taylor, of Englevale,
N. OAK. relates the following experience: {:
"About two years ago, I nursed lady
who was suffering and finally died) from
blood poisoning. ! must have contracted
the disease from her; for shortly after her
death, 1 had four large sores or ulcers,
break out on my person. 1 doctored for a
long time, both by external application
and with various blood medicines; but, in
spite of all that could do, the sores would
not heal. They were obstinate, very pain
ful, annoying, and only getting worse all
the time. At last, purchased six bottles
of Dr.Ayer's Sarsaparilla, thinking would
give il thorough trial. Before the first
bottle was taken, noticed decided i'm
provement in my general health; my ap-
petite was quickeued, and ! felt better
and stronger than I had for some time;
While using the second bottle, ] noticed
that the sores had begun to look healthier

and to heal. Before the six bottles had
been taken, the ulcers were healed the
skin sound and natural, and my health
better than it had been for years. i have
been we'll ever since. ! had rather have
one bottle of DR.. Ayers Sarsaparilla than
three of any other kind"
This is but one example of the remedial
value of DR.. Ayers Sarsaparilla in all
forms of blood disease. There is no other
blood medicine that cures so promptly,
so surely and so thoroughly. After nearly
half a century of test and trial il is the
standard medicine of the world for all
diseases of the blood. Sores ulcers, boils,
tetter, rheumatism, scrofula and every
other blood disease is durable by DR.. Ayers
Sarsaparilla. The success of this remedy
has caused many limitations to be put on
the market. Imitation remedies wofE i'm
itation cures. The universal testimony IS
that "one bottle of DR.. Ayers SarEaparilln
is worth three of any other kind" If you

remedy, get DR., Ayers Curebook, a story
of cures told by the cured. 1t is sent free.

THE FARMING WORLD.
THE OK WARBLE FLY.
Best and Most Efficient Way to Get
RID of the Pest Is to Destroy
the MaSSot.

The warble or swelling on the back of
cattle is caused by the larva of fly
which attaches its eggs to the hair on
the legs, fanks and neck of the animal.
These hatch and the larvae establish
themselves under the skin, usually on
either side of the backbone. Here they
feed upon the animal juices until ready
to pupate, causing the swelling or war
bic. When growth is completed the
grub leaves the warble, drops to the
ground, crawls under the most con-

ADULT FLY.

under the skin. Whatever method is
employed the results are the same.
The best way to get rid of the pest is
to kill the maggot. This may be done
by squeezing them out. Place the
thumbs near the base of the swelling
and press firmly until the grub is
forced out. TO prevent the attacks of
the fly in summer, a mixture of four
ounces flowers of sulphur, one gill of
spirits of tar with a quart of train oil
rubbed along the spine, loins and ribs
is useful. Train oil can be used alone.
As the fly does not move about from
place to place freely, its eradica-
tion on individual farms depends al
most completely upon the owner

be trimmed about once a month to pre-

Its condition becomes poor, just as the
general system gets run down. II then

but otherwise hairdressings are gener-
ally to be avoided Brush thoroughly
once a day at least, and do not braid
tightly at night. While care will do
much toward strengthening weak
growths of hair, it is, after all, mat
