swift Running Almost saved Him Wheh
Doomed to Gauntlet.
One of the most tragic episodes in
the life of The First White Baby
Born in the Northwest" after she had
grown to girlhood. is told by w. S.
Harwood, in The Ladies' Home Jour
nal. Her father was an army officer
and the little frontier post where he
was stationed had been established to
prevent bloodshed between the Chip
pewas and the Sioux, and to see JUS
tice done between them. A quintette
of Sioux braves had brutally killed
some of the Chippewas without cause.
The commandant of the post investi-
gated the affair, demanded the guilty
regarding the crime, turned them over
to the Chippewas. One of the Sioux,
a stalwart young fellow, was an es-
pecial favorite of the little girl. He
was a master hand at fashioning curl
Gus toys, and many were the treasures
which he had given to the little pale
face whom he loved. So it was with
a heavy heart that she heard the de-
cision of the Chippewa council-the
gauntlet. Far across the fiower-decked
parade ground stood the line of Sioux
waiting for their comrades. Opposite
them were the Chippewas with their
best riflemen in readiness. If the pris-
oners succeeded in reaching their
friends they were entitled to liberty

see her favorite spring into the air,

Revlying Drowning Chicks.

1t is now the time of year when sud-
den showers are frequent, and some
times a sudden downpour, and lots Of
us poultry raisers have found chick
ems and poults out on the range, and
II is impossible sometimes for us to
get them to shelter without a half
hours warning, says a writer in Poul-
try Tribune. Before this season we
have brought in drowned chicks by
the apronful or dozen after one of
those showers, some dead, and others
died because didn't know how to ap-
ply warmth. / have been taught since
by an older head to double piece of
carpet or other thick cloth and cover
the bottom of a warm oven with it,
put the wet chick on this, and those
that seem dead immerse all but their
heads in warm water, have 1t so warm
that you can barely hold your hand
in it, and hold the chicks there until
they can move themselves easily. You
will be surprised to see how soon an
apparently dead chick will revive, II
you have never tried this remedy. But
alas. this remedy will not bring a dead
chick to life.
After you take them from the wa
ter, wipe them with a dry cloth and
put them in the warm oven to dry. We
do not have all this bother with brood
er chicks, for their mother is always
in the same place, not a gadabout all
over the farm, and the chicks know
which way to run when they need pro-
lection. We intend to do away with
hens for brooders as soon as possible.
because artificial breeders are not half
the bother and we raise the chicks.

Cave Built by a Tyrant.

Every school boy is familiar with
the story of the cave constructed by
Dionysius, tyrant of Syracuse. as a
prison, which was ingeniously shaped
like the human ear, SO that even the
whispers of his prisoners might be
heard. A traveller who visited the cave
tells a wonderful story of some expe-
riments in acoustics that he made
there. For example, standing at the
entrance he struck the edge of sheet
of letter-paper lightly with his finger
three times, when there came from
within the great ear three heavy blows
as loud and resonant as though they
had been made with a sledgehammer
on the roof of a house Of iron. He
then ratified the sheet of paper lightly
and the feeble sound was increased a
millionfold, reverberating through the
cave like the roar and crash of thun-
der When he spoke or whistled every
note was repeated as II a thousand
stentors were inside and calling tc
him. We have our echo caves, our
echo valleys, and our echo mountains
but there is no structure, natural OF
artificial, of modern times that has
such acoustic properties as Dionysius
ear.

Poultry Briefs.


1t is said that the interest being
manifested in the poultry industry is
greater than ever before. At no time
previously in the history OF this coun-
try have so many educated men been
engaged in the business. Poultry
farms of considerable magnitude are
being established in localities where
they have never before existed. There
are probably more people writing ar
ticles on poultry today than ever be-
fore, and the articles written are bet
ter. The poultry business is develop
ing enormously.
The would-be successful poultryman
must be good feeder. By good feed
er we do not mean heavy feeder but
correct feeder. No matter how good
the breed may be or how pure, it will
prove a fa'.ure without proper feed
ing. Now, perhaps some one will ex-
pect us to follow that remark with
set of rules for good feeding. But in
stead we wish to say that feeding is
science that has to be learned just
like any other science. The mex
perienced amateur cannot even carry
out rules laid down by others, since
their carrying out requires judgment,
and correct judgment comes only with
experience.
The following scraps of information
may be interesting: Hen manure
should not be permitted to become
very dry, as In that case 1t will lose
much Of its nitrogen. 1t may be ac-
cumulated in barrels or boxes, which
should be covered to prevent the dry
ing out by the air. Do not mix dry
dust with 1t. When any kind of ma
nure is mixed with absolutely dry dust
or greatly diluted with water bacterial
and chemical actions are set up that
are very nearly annihilative in their
results. A mean must therefore be
followed, and the manure kept slight
ly moist and cold. Little change will
then take place. In summer the drop
pings from the poultry should be
cleaned away often and applied at
once to the land. A con-
temporary assigns as one cause of
soft-shelled eggs the overlooking Of
meat. This may be so but is not
probable. At least few OF our poul-
trymen can be accused Of feeding so
much meat that the ration is over
balanced. Rheumatism in
fowls can be to an extent avoided by
giving dry house quarters.

ExpeIlinC the Lice.

Lice are most always the cause of
chicks dying seemingly without
causes, so to speak, writes a corre-
spondent of the Illinois Poultry Ga
zette. After the chicks are Matched
/ leave them under the hens for about
thirty-six hours before feeding them
any at ALL They require no feed for
that length of time, for nature pro-
vides for their nourishment for that
length of time and that length of
brooding makes them become strong
and vigorous so as to be ready for
the battle of coming existence. Usual
ly when chicks are two days old l put
wee little speck of fresh lard or
sweet oil on their heads just back of
their little comb, rubbing It in gently.
but being sure to not get too much
grease on them, as the results might
prove fatal and put the little downy
balls to sleep forever The sitting
hens must be thoroughly busted with
some good insect powder which can
be procured at most any drug store at
small cost. Before | set the hens
paint their nest box with lice killer
and put tobacco leaves or stem in bot
tom of box and then fine hay on top
of this, but be sure not to let any of
the lice medicine touch the eggs. After
the hens is on the eggs a few days
place a camphorated ball in the nest.
BY such application, II there happens
to be any lice or mites left in the nest
box or on the sitter they will mosey
out without waiting for written no
tice to vacate the premises in ten
days.
Bran is an excellent egg food, and
should be used largely in the morning
feed.

Diseases OF rho Feet.

The feet of fowls should be looked
after, and any serious injury corrected
by proper treatment. Cuts and cracks
may rapidly heal. or they may become
centers of Inflammation. which cause
lameness. Such infamed spots are hot
and swollen. To allay the infiamma-
ton hold the foot in water as hot as
the bird can bear, then apply to the
injured surface an ointment composed
of boric acid 1 part and vaseline 5
parts. The feet of fowls are subject
to corns, due largely to narrow perches.
See that the latter are broad and fiat.
Corns become greatly aggravated, pro-
ducing a condition known as humble
foot. The affected part is hot, painful
and swollen, or the swelling may sup
purate, which when Il breaks causes an
ugly sore. Soak the foot in hot water
to reduce the Inflammation, then apply
fax seed poultice. When the in
fiammation is reduced apply the boric
acid ointment. Keep the foot band
aged. If the swelling has formed
an abscess, open the same with a sharp
knife previous to the above treatment.
Who is IN the right fears, who is in
the wrong, hopes.
