TO Destroy Hawks.

Mr.. Jim Hortman is not only a good
farmer, but at his home near Batesv,lle
he runs a model poultry yard successful
ly. Mr.. Hortmsn has evolved method
of killing hawks, the pirate of the chick
en- yard. To friend over in Georgia he
gives his method. Here II is: Put a
tablespoonful of syrup in an old saucer
or cup, add about three grains of strych-
nine, mix we'll with a broom straw i.
Catch the little chickens, raise up the
feathers on the back Of the head and III b
on little # the syrup and strYchnine
with your finger. Sprinkle little dry
sand on it, so it will dry in a cake and
smooth down the feathers. This will
stay there for two or three weeks, and
when you discover that it is off you can
put it on again. By this remedy you can
soon destroy every hawk in your vicini-
ty.-Eufaula Tines.
