to active duty pay from the date of the

Mr.. Mitchell said:

proper authority and receives notice of
such order, the detail under the above act
is complete. becomes an accomplished
fact, and he is entitled to be paid the full

THE GOOSE BUSINESS.
Iowa Farmer Tells How 1t May he
Conducted Probably and Safely
ON Q Small Scale.

Some think it necessary to have .
pond for geese. We have raised them
for years with only pan of drinking
water before them at all times, and
find they are not a bit of trouble.
Get two sittings of eggs from two
breeders. Mark the little ones from
each lot in different way. I cut a
slit in the web of the foot with q
scissors.
Five eggs are as many as hen can
cover comfortably. 1 have set as
many as seven under large hen, but
never had more than five hatch, and
where I set five I could almost count
my goslings before they Matched. ]
mate my geese in pairs, and the eggs
are sure to be fertile. When they are
due to hatch l watch to see that none
of the little ones get stuck in the
shells. When they are dry have bas'
ket with a warm piece of flannel and
bring them into the house, and you
will fairly see them grow. When
they are day old put the hen in a
good-slzed coop. A yard one foot
high or less will keep them in until
they get used to the hen for moth
er. Move the coop every day so they
will have fresh grass. In stormy
weather do not let them out until the
storm is over.-M. Smith, in Farm and

AMONG THE POULTRY.

Fifty birds kept well are more prof
,itable than 100 that take care OF
themselves.
Suntiower seeds fed in small guam
titles impart a beautiful gloss to the
plumage of show birds.
Avoid those who advertise ''the best
and only good stock in the country
and offer it at very low prices.
The hen of medium size for the
breed is usually the best layer. She
is of active disposition, with healthy
red color in comb and wattles, and
has good appetite. By watchfulness
you can select such hens, and if you
will keep only them as breeders you
can work your flock up to a high
standard.
Vigor and egg production are the
points any farmer not up to all the
requirements of the fancier can al
ways appreciate, and these he can
have by judicious selection among
the hens and never keeping cock
that is not purely bred and of the
breed that has first been employed in
the improvement of the flock. It is
important, too, to know that he
comes of family noted for layers

FEEDING SOAKED CORN.
when Combined with Good Pasturage
1t Affords an Ideal Summer
Ration for Pigs.

There appears to be quite differ
ence in the opinions of breeders in re-
gard to feeding soaked corn to the
spring pigs during the summer time
when running on the pasture and at
a time when the old corn is hard and
sometimes difficult for young pigs to
eat. I have decided preference for
soaked corn, getting the best growth
and better results than from feeding
the dry corn. My plan is as follows: I
get two barrels that will hold water,
and then pour in one the quantity of
corn that wish the pigs to eat during
the next &c hours time, then add to
the corn clean water until it is covered
some three inches, leaving it to soak
from the first barrel, and at the same
time fill the second barrel, which will
be ready to commence on when the
first is fed out. After the first is fed
out, clean the barrel and fill it as be-
fore. This is a clean, easy digested,
wholesome food. The corn has lost
nothing by the operation, only the
heated or burning feature Of it, which
is injurious to all young, growing
stock when fed to any extent. You
can feed this kind of food without
danger of splashing it over you, which
is not the case with slop made from
mill feeds, which not only gets on
your Clothes. but the pigs as well in
feeding. This manner of feeding will
make rapid growth, and when on good
pasture complete ration.-J. G. True

A PIKE COUNTY MIRACLE.

Velpen, Ind, June 17.-William O.
B. Sullivan, farmer of this place, and
who is a brother of ex-Representa.
tive Sullivan, of Pike and Dubois
counties, has had q remarkable ex-
perience recently.
Mr.. Sullivan is 40 years of age,
and has been citizen of Pike county
for 30 years. For two years he has
suffered much with Kidney Trouble
and Rheumatism. His shoulders and
side were very sore and stiff, and his
back was so bad he could hardly
straighten up at all. He had palpita-
ton of the heart, and a smothering
which was very distressing. He used
three boxes of Dodd's Kidney Pills,
and is as strong and well as ever he
was. He pronounces his cure a mir
acle. Mr.. Sullivan's statement of his
case is startling:
"A month ago was a cripple. To-
day can do a hard days work every
day, and have not single ache or
pain"
Dodd's Kidney Pills have done some
wonderful cures in Indiana, but none
more miraculous than that in the
case of Mr.. Sullivan.

Yellow and White Corn.

Corn of strong vitality will sprout
in from "a to SO hours under proper
conditions of moisture and tempera.
ture. Yellow corn will sprout much
sooner than white corn under iden-
teal conditions. This fact is not well
understood, but several reasons may
be given by way of explanations: Ow.
ing to differences in chemical COM
position, yellow corn under condi.
tions favorable to termination may
yield more readily to the action OF
moisture and heat than white corn.
It also is known among corn grow
ers that yellow corns are usually
slightly richer in oil and protein than
white corns. and have proportionate.
~ larger germs; and where these con-
ditions obtain the yellow corns are
expected to terminate somewhat
quicker.-National Rural.

ing Them Profitable.

The farmers wife knows the great
loss from weakness and dying among
her chicks during the hot summer
months. That has always been the
case with our summer chickens, in fact
we could raise so few of them that we
have gradually dropped chicken hatch
ing after May until late summer or
early fall. While there is as much
money in summer Matched chickens as
any other, we could not make sue
cess of raising them. But last summer
we had pen of thoroughbreds, and
wishing to raise as many as possible,
we continued Matching as fast as we
could get the eggs for setting. The
chickens were given the usual free
dom of the farm and took the usual
privilege of dying. Then we de-
termined to try penning them up. The
old hens were all driven into yard
containing about one-sixth of an acre
and confined there.
Each hen (and her chicks) was fur
nished with small coop, and they
were kept in the yard, which was de-
void of all vegetation. Green stuff
was thrown in to them every day, and
cool, shady retreats furnished them,
but there were no weeds or grass for
them to wander about in. They ceased
dying Immediately and grew as rapid
ly and as finely as the spring chickens
They were much easier to care for
There was no running about all over
the farm when a storm was seen gath
ering. There was no clucking biddy
coming in from the orchard or meadow
late in the evening with half her brood
missing, either because of the hens
carelessness or the result of some
tragedy. In fact so we'll pleased were
we with the result that this season we
will have our chicken pen and have nc
little chickens wandering all over the

weakening baths of dew from the
grass and weeds. We believe it viii
