THE EXCELLENCE OF SYRUP OF FIGS

is due not only to the originality and
simplicity of the combination, but also
to the care and skill with which it is
manufactured by scientific processes
known to the CALIFORNIA FIa SYRUP
Co. only. and we wish to Impress upon
all the Importance of purchasing the
true and original remedy. AS the
genuine Syrup of Figs is manufactured
by the CALIFORNIA Fro SYRUP Co
only, a knowledge of that fact will
assist one in avoiding the worthless
limitations manufactured by other par
ties. The high standing of the CALI.
FoRNIA FIG SYRUP Co. with the medi-
cal profession, and the satisfaction
which the genuine Syrup of Figs has
given to millions of families, makes
the name of the Company a guaranty
of the excellence of its remedy. 1t is
far in advance of all other laxatives,
as it acts on the kidneys, liver and
bowels without irritating or weaken
ing them, and it does not grippe nor
nauseate. In order to get its beneficial
effects, please remember the name of

A Few Reliable Health and Disease
InILcntiOnH.

A Few Reliable Health and Disease
Indications.
When fowls are judiciously fed, made
to take exercise, and their quarters kept
clean and free from filth, there is com
paratively no trouble with sickness, ex-
cept in cases of contagion,
When the combs and wattles Of the
fowls are of bright red color, it indi-
Gates the condition Of good health.
When the fowls are busy scratching,
the hens laying and singing, and the
cocks growing, these are signs Of good
health.
When you can enter the hen house
after dark and hear no wheeling, it
proves there are not any roupy fowls in
the flock.
When the manure is hard, and por-
ton of it white, it indicates u healthy
condition of the digestive organs.
When the edge of the comb and wat
ties are purplish red and the move
ments sluggish, there is something
wrong.
When fowls lie around, Indifferent to
their surroundings, they are too fat,
ind death from apopleXy, indigestion
or liver complaint will result unless the
trouble is corrected.
When the fowls are restless and CON
stantly picking their feathers, they are
infested with vermin.
When young poultry, especially duck
lings, appear to have a sore throat, and
swallowing is difficult, it is the symp-
tom of the large gray lice on the neck.
If the fowl has a bilious lock, with al
ternate attacks of dysentery and cos
tiveness. it is suffering with liver com
plant. A lack of grit, overlooking and
idleness will cause this trouble.
A hospital should he n part of every
poultry yard, AS soon as a fowl gets

mence doctoring it at once, The trouble
with far too many is that they wait I'M
til the disease is in its advanced stages
before giving medicine. A very sick
fowl is difficult to cure, and when cured

you find it out the better. OH you
needn't stand there glazing at mel !
mean every word | say, and il you feel
like it come down and put up your
dukes!"
Mr.. Bowser was on the point Of going
down when Mrs. Bowser appeared in
the hall overheard, and at the same i'm
slant the other mans wife stepped out
of her fiat to appeal to him. They were
thus dragged away from each other,
and as the Bowsers entered their room
he was so angry that his trembling
knees refused to hold him. That he
would break out in the course OF four
or five minutes Mrs. Bowser fully real
lied, and she was wondering whether
it was best to faint away or flee from
the house, when Providence came to
her aid. The hall door had been left
open, and n vegetable peddler, holding
string of beets in one hand and n
cabbage head in the other, came climb
ing upstairs and rang the bell.
"Thats the police!" whispered Mrs.
Bowser. 81 told you not to raise a row,
but you would do it, and now Wen be
dragged off to Jail"
Mr.. Bowscr thought he was surely in
trouble now, but after u minute he
braced up and opened the door, Great
was his relief when he saw the ped
dler and heard him ask:
"Any nice fresh vegetables for break
fast this morning."
"You audacious donkey! How dare
you enter this house at this hour to
ring folks out of bed and ask 'em to
buy your miserable vegetables. You
want lesson in manners, you do, and
I'll give you one right here and now!"
Mrs. Bowser screamed and the ped
der started to run, but Mr.. Bowser had
found somebody to lick and he jumped
on the man and proceeded to paralyze
him. The peddler's yells ard the

| sounds of conflict aroused the whole
house, and though Mr.. Bowser got the
best of the soap he did not come off
entirely free His ear had somehow
got between the peddler's teeth and
was badly chewed, while all the but
tons were ripped off his vest and he
lost handful of hair AS he let go
to get better hold the peddler es-
capped, but before Mrs. Bowser could
get her husband inside the door u
dozen tenants came running out to see
what was the matter. Among them
was the janitress, and her first words
were:
"You will all bear witness that the
man Towser was trying to murder the
peddler when we came upon him!"
aye! and it was robbery, too"
shouted the vegetable man from the
bottom of the stairs. "He pitched into
me to rob me of seven dollars in me
pocket, and if the crowd hadn't come
he'd have murdered me to git it'll"
Somebody go for the police!"
shouted half dozen voices in chorus.
Didn't say that he was murder
er the very first time I set eyes on
him!" exclaimed the ianitress. 81 did
that, as all We know, and my words hev
come true. If he don't git 20 years in
Sing Sing for this mornings work,
then don't own the landlord who
owns this house,"
Mr.. Bowser tried to explain to some
of the people how it had happened but
before he had said ten words the JAM
tress interrupted him with:
Hes only palaverin' till he kin git
some of us by the throat! III go down
and lock the front door, so that he can
not escape, and when the landlord
comes this morning that family will
either take skip or III call in the
police!"
Mr.. Bowser was dragged into his flat
and pulled down on chair, and as
Mrs. Bowser got water and sponge
to wash his bleeding ear she couldn't
help saying:
Seven rooms-hardwood finish
beautiful scenery-quiet neighborhood
two bugs in rug!"

COMBINATION HOUSE.

simply as a resort in the winter for
scratching. 1t is made low, not only
to cheaper the cost, but also because
it is a better protection against winds
than one that is higher. The shed has
ground floor, and should contain
leaves or cut straw, into which handful
Of millet seed should be thrown as an
inducement for the hens to scratch.
The roof and sides of both the house
and shed may be covered with tarred pa
per or some similar roofing material,
which will permit of the use of cheap
lumber in its construction.-Farm and

beginning with Poultry.

A writer advises a beginner il he has
$1,000 to put only half of it into the
poultry business at first. We would adj
wise him to start with little or no CAPT
tal-at most, very little. Get few
hens and hatch the flock. One does not
need costly henhouses, bone cutters, in.
cubators and so on to start with. Many
of the most profitable flocks have never
seen anything of these luxuries. Most
farm focks are kept in the barn with
the other stock, though shut away from
it, and as to bone cutters, etc, no barn
flock needs them. Woe unto the one
who starts with large capital. One
of the strongest points in favor of poul-
try keeping is that it requires very lit
tie capital.-Dakota Farmer.

AGRICULTURAL NOTES.


Cultivate the corn before 1t is up.
Get the implements ready for spring
work.
Clover will run out the common
weeds.
Alfalfa is not satisfactory in the mid
die west.
On poor soil sow wheat little thicker
than on good,
Orchard, timothy, blue grass and
clover make a good pasture.
Wire fencing is so cheap that there
is no excuse for lack of fences.
Fermenting and heating in the NOW
are what make clover hay dusty.
Black loan earth, in dry state, is
just as good an absorbent as plaster.
Clover, clover and more clover with
all the stock you can keep, will bring
up a WORKOUT farm.
If the land is level three inches of fine
pulverization of the soil is believed to
be best for conservation of moisture.
There is a very general opinion among
corn growers with whom we talk that
we plant too thicllly for best results.
Old straw stacks may be spread on
the pastures in spring to advantage. 1t
is a mulch and prevents too close crop
ping
If cattle are turned on topped dressed
pasture before the grass gets a good
start and before there has been good
rain, it will be offensive to them

1t may seem strange to advise apply
ing wood ashes unleached to stable ma
nure just before it is plowed under.
Yet this is often good thing TO do.
While exposed to the air, especially if
the manure be wet so as to leach the
ashes, there will be some loss of am
monia. But SO fast as the manure and
ashes are turned under this waste of
ammonia ceases. The ashes cause the
manure to ferment rapidly, and in con-
tact with the soil none of the ammonia
viii be lost. In fact, much of it win
combine with the potash in the ashes.
forming a nitrate of potash, which is
the most effective manure known

Mrs. Dowser coaxed and argued, but
as soon MS he was ready he stepped
out into the hall to wait for the man

The man not only came gathering

"You--you live upstairs, do you?"
demanded Mr. Bowser, as he barred the
way.

and Experience.
Soak the skins until soft, remove SUI
perfuous flesh and soak in tepid soft
water one hour. For each skin make a
solution of one-half ounce of borax,
three-quarters ounce saltpeter and one
half ounce g!obular salt. Dissolve or
moisten with soft water sufficient to
spread on the flesh side of the skin. Put
on with brush, taking into considera-
tion the varying thicknesses of skin
and apply accordingly. Keep in a mod
erately cool place for "a hours, when
the skin is to be washed clean. Then
take one ounce sal soda, one-half ounce
boraX and two ounces hard soap, melt
together, taking care not to bring to
boil. Apply the heated mixture to the
flesh side and keep in warm place for
"a hours. Wash the skins clean and
apply two ounces saleratus, three
quarts hot soft water, four ounces alum
and eight ounces salt. Dissolve in
water. When sufficiently cool to allow
handling without scalding the bare
hand allow the skin to remain in this
mixture for ~ hours. Afterward wiring
out the moisture and allow 10 hours to
dry. Finish by pulling and working
and finally by rubbing the flesh with
sandpaper or pumice stone.-G. II. Hap
