Another Tells How She Saved
Her Little Daughters Life,

| am the mother OF eight children
and have had a great deal ofexperince
with medicines. Last summer my
little daughter had the dysentery in
its worstform. We thought she would
die. l tried everything could think
of, but nothing seemed to do her any
good. saw by an advertisement in
our paper that Chamberlin's Collie,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy was
highly recommended and sent and got
a bottle at once. 1t proved to be one
of the very best medicines we ever had
in the house. 1t saved my little
daughters life. l am anxious for
every mother to know what an excell-
ent medicine it is. Had known it at
first it would have saved me a great
deal of anxiety and my little daughter
much suffering. Yours truly, Mrs.
Geo. +. Burdick, Liberty, R. l. For

Hicks Forecast For March.

Violent storms and gales over land
and sea will fall between the 9Th and
18th, taking the 18th as the central
day-the day of greatest probable
danger. Immediately behind the
storms and for several days succeed
ing. much cooler weather may be ex-
pected.
The 18th to 18th constitutes the
next storm period, ending in storms
OF rain and snow on and next to the
18th, 18th and 18th. Higher baro
metric pressure with much cooler
weather will come out of the west
and north. on the heels of these
storms, causing cool to cold, fair
weather until about the 21st. A re
dictionary storm period centers on the
22nd. Low barometer, much warm
er and many gales and storms will be
most probable and natural. No
thoughtful student of our forecasts,
or of the open book of nature, will be
caught unawares if heavy storms of
rain, wind and thunder occur within
forty eight hours of noon on the 9th,
or if the same disturbances eliminate
in drifting SHOWS and blizzardous
gales and winds over vast areas OF sea
and land in northerly sections.

Hens and Their Fruit.

P. H. Sprague, a Chicago poultry
dealer, says the Chicago Chronicle
read a paper before the farmers insti-
tute at Princeton Wednesday in
which he stated that the production
of chickens in the United States last
year reached $3.50. 900 and OF eggs 49,
900 .000, 900. The total value of chickens
and eggs produced was $3.50, 600, 600
Accepting these figures as approx
mately correct, we must conclude
that the hen plays an important part
in our American life. But we will
better understand the relative I'M
portance Of that part when we come
to make some comparisons.
The value of our tobacco crop has
rarely been as much as $43. 00C.G COO.
The value our potato crop is less than
$50 900 900 on the average. The value
of our barley crop is not often as
much as $30,000,0 900. An oat crop
worth S200,000,0O0 is unusual. Our
annual output of pig iron has rarely
exceeded $130,000,000 in value.
Coal, by far the most valuable of our
mineral products, gives a total an
nual output of some $500, 900.
Raw cotton, wheat, hay and corn
are the only four products of our
country that exceed in value hens
and hens eggs, according to the
above estimate, and cotton sometimes
follows the latter in the order of i'm
portance, the crop having been not
quite 1910, 100000 The wheat crop
has ranged in value from $213,000, 900
to 1913. 100000 and the corn crop from
about $40, 600, 900 to $7S3, 000,O 900. The
average value of the hay crop may
be stated at about $500, 100000. From
this comparison the Importance of
the hen, especially in our agricultural
economy, will be appreciated.
