MANY HEARD sANFoRD's BAND
Crowds of Wichita People In Parks
Sunday Afternoon.

Probably the largest crowd that ever
listened to a Sunday band concert in this
city heard Sanford's band in North River
side park Sunday afternoon. The grounds
abount the bandstand were crowded with
people afoot and on wheels, while the
drives were packed with carriages and
buggies. 1t was a very pleasant after
noon and no one cared TO stay at home
so they drove through the park and
around town. There is no way to esti-
mate the number that hear part of
these Sunday concerts. There is always
a driveway open and the carriages are
continually on the move Very few of
the people who had to walk stayed in
one place longer than to hear one seiec-
ton and then they would move around
to another point.
There were but one or two accidents
and these were of a very minor nature
and due to carelessness in driving. The
park police handled the crowd in most
satisfactory manner. The next concert
Will be given on the lawn Of the Masonic
Home on the West Side next Wednesday
evening.

ANCIENT
TORTURE
How it has Been Revived
in Modern Times.

An ancNAt method Of poisoning
! criminals was TO force them TO sWal.
] low large quantities Of bulls blood.
! Bulls blood is really nc poison at all.
/ Yet the prisoner usually died in agony.
This was caused by the coagulation or
hardening of the bulls blood in the
| stomach. The pressure Of this solid
/ mass on the heart. lungs and other vital
organs almost always resulted fatally.
That's just like indigestion. If
your food doesn't digest il remains In
hard lump in the stomach. Gases are
formed, which crowd and sometimes
actually displace other organs. Many
cases of supposed heart disease are due
TO indigestion. The pressure upon the
lungs interferes with breathing. a dis
ordered stomachefTects the whole body.
BY the use OF such preparation as
k0dOl Dyspepsia Cure all this trouble
is removed. Before food can be assimi-
lated into the system it must be re-
duced to proper condition by the d.
gestiye fluids. II any Of these fluids
are lacking, perfect digestion is i'm
possible. KOdol Dyspepsia Cure sup
plies the missing fluids. Stomach
troubles can't be cured by dieting.
The system demands both sufficiency
and variety OF food. on can I get

great things in this line are claimed

TO Keep Poultry Healthy.

From Farmers Review: Flocks
should be kept well housed at night,
and the house that shelters them
should be free from leaks and drafts,
especially in the roosting places. The
droppings should be carefully cleaned
from sanded dropping boards three or
four times a week. Use liquid lice
killer on roosts once in two weeks and
disinfect once or twice q month by
burning flowers Of sulphur on q hand
full Of shavings. Air the houses well
during bright, crisp weather. Always
supply a patch Of rye for winter pas
ture, to be used when the ground is
free from snow.
Several years breeding has never
brought any disease Of q contagious
or infectious character into my iocks.
Care, variety and regularity Of feeding
are essential. This has been a study
with me. for the health Of the flock.
Where q GOLD has occurred it has been
treated to q few applications Of kero-
sene and sweet oil equal parts). This
medicine is applied to the nostrils by
means Of q small oil can. Some Of the
medicine is put into the throat. II
the cold seems stubborn, q pretty thor
ough smoking v e the fumes Of burn
ing sulphur has completed the cure. I
do not believe in using much medicine
In feed or drink. My observation has
been that disease is largely due to
overlooking with one kind Of feed, lack
Of variety in feed. filth and general
neglect.-Jesse e. Morgan, Cook Coun-
ty, Illinois.

mo Corn st.,k pf,ease.

From Farmers Review: I have seen
a great deal published on the cornstalk
disease. Perhaps I can add something
Of value. I have seen no remedy given
except that Of the assistant state vet
erinarian, L. G. Tiffany. He thinks a
poisonous fungus develops on the stalk
or blades, invisible but surely there.
He said the only sure way Of avoiding
the disease is to cease turning In the
stock. Now as I have practiced veter-
mary surgery for the last forty-four
years and in that time have opened
and examined both horses and cattle
in large numbers that have died from
this same trouble. I think l know
whereof I speak. The u OF the
trouble is that the animal is expected
to eat enough Of those weather-beaten
stalks to supply them with nourish-
ment. An animal has therefore to eat
almost all day and all night to do 1t.
The system Of an animal does not
furnish moisture enough to digest the
fodder that has been eaten. The con-
sequence is that gases are formed IN
the bowels and these death. I
have examined several cattle and
horses that died this falk in this part
of the state. They had died while on
dry pasture and an examination showed
that the cause of death was indtges-
ton, just the same as in the case OF
animals fed on dry stalks. ! have
pastured stalks on my farm all my
life and never lost an animal. The
only remedy I know is to feed grain
to the stock while %pasturing the corn
stalks. The reason that stalks cut as
fodder do not cause the same trouble
is that the stalks when cut have all
the sap or juice in the blades, while the
stalks that stand in the field are
bleached until no Juice is left In them
to help digestion. There is no poison
nor CONSCIOUSNESS about animals that
die from this complaints. R. Nc
Anulty, Adams County, Illinois.
