PESTS OF THE POULTRY YARD
MIST GO!
American Lice Destroyer Kills More
Mites. Lice and other Nermin In "A
Day Than All Other Relne-
dies Combined.

The war is on, The days of lice and
vermln that have done so much to make
the life of the pOultryman miserable,
and his business Improbable are over.
American Lice Destroyer is the proper
ammunition to usel This preparation
is wonderful in its power, and vermin
cannot exist twenty-four hours after it
is applied to the coop or fowls. Every
pOultryman needs it. 1t is cheap reliable
and effective, one package being sutii-
cielt to protect 2o0 fowls from mites
and lice for one year. When this De-
stroyer Is used, profits at once increase.
Lice and vermIn do more to kill profits
than all other causes combined. You
know it. Don't go on losing money
every week, but try American Lice De-
stroyer. You may have tried other
things without success, but if this fails
you can have your money back. We
are in this fight to stay, and will back
Destroyer against any number of mites
or lice you may have. Don't fool away
money with recipes" or homemade
makeshifts. Use scientific means. The
American Lice Destroyer has been
used by thousands of poultrymen; 1t has
been on the market several years and
has been tested thousands of times.
We know it is sll right, and if 1t doesn't
do the work remember you get your
money back. What more can you ask
If your druggist don't sell American
Lice Destroyer, he's behind the age. In
that case send for a S1.OO box at once.

At about ten o'clock last evening
some man made havoc with several
empty oyster buckets that stood in
front of Fred Shoemakers restaurant.
He attempted TO pass them but in his
desperate efforts to fight shy of them
deliberately stumbled over one. Great
ly incensed at this breach of etiquette
on the part of the bucket he took it,
and raising it high above his head, sent
1t rolling down the sidewalk. One af-
ter another followed In rapid succession
and soon the buckets lay scattered
along the walk for half block. The
most comica part, and that which
made the crowd wild laughter, occurred
when he accidentally let one slip and it
came down on the back of his head

uation and the great volume of business
if they will take into consideration the
recent increase in the capacity of loco
motives and cars. Twelve or fifteen
years ago the standard car carried
twenty tons; today thirty tons is the
rule, and there are many cars in service
tina: carry forty and even fifty tons.
Then the average load for locomotive,
leaving out weight of cars, was about
six hundred tons; today the standard
engine will haul 400 to 1000 tons. 1t
requires no more men to handle the
400 ton than it did to handle the 600
ton train of fifteen years ago.

Last night there dropped in upon us,
for the first time in two years a snow
storm. This morning things had as
summed shapes more like to those des.
cribed by Whittier than they had at
any other time for many long month.
So far as the happiness of the young
folks is concerned this has been q very
unsatisfactory winter and as they had
prepared themselves to live through
another winter without q sleigh ride,
this snow is accepted by them with un-
bounded joy.
The snow storm of today possesses
the unusual merit of having furnished
at least one amusing incident. This
morniog as William Siddall was clean
ing off the sidewalks of other people
with q opou plou ap6 ba xyoo Dooo
ing by Jacox's grocery store toward the
east, his plOw struck the sidewalk
which crosses the alley. This particu-
lar walk happens to be raised trifle
above the walks on each side and
well, Mr.. Siddall soon began to worm
his way feet first out of q huge snow
bound and begged the hilarious onlook
els not to let it out. Such are the re-
wards of the generous minded.
