One great point Of the super
iority Of the Buff Orpingions
over any other breed OF fowls is
their wonderful laying qualities.
In this respect they surpass
even the Leghorns, being ever
lasting layers; in size they com
pare favorably with the large
breeds, cocks weigh 10 tol2 lbs,
hens z to 2 lbs, and for table use
they cannot be excelled. They
are deep in BODY, broad and of
good long breast, not very high
on the legs. Chicks are exceed
ingly hardy and grow very fast,
and it is possible to raise about
every chick as far as disease is
concerned.
These fowls breed remarkably
we'll to color, which is rich buff
throughout. They are very
tame, a low fence being sufficient
to keep them enclosed. 1t is not
necessary if one has the Buff
Orpingtons, to keep a small
breed for eggs and large breed
for toe table, as the Buff Orping-
tons comprise all these most val
liable points. They came from
the union of Golden Spangled
Ham burg Male with Dorking
Hens. The progeny of this union
was mated to Buff Cochin Male.

Putting food into a diseased
stomach Is like putting money into
a pocket with holes. The money is
lost. All its value goes for nothing.
When the stomach is diseased,
with the allied organs of digestion
and nutrition, the food which is put
into it is largely lost. The nutri-
ment Is not extracted from it. The
body is weak and the blood impov-
crushed.
The pocket can be mended The
stomach can be cured. That ster-
ling medicine for the stomach and
blood, Doctor Pierce's Golden Medi-
cal d scovery, acts with peculiar
promptness and power on the or
gans of digestion and nutrition. 1t
is a positive cure for almost all dis
orders # these organs, and cures
also such diseases OF the heart,
blood, liver and other organs, as
have their cause in a weak or dis
eased condition OF the stomach.

Young ladies who may be moved to
emulate her may be interested to know
that the Denver Diana is only four feet
eleven inches tall. She is, however, e,,-
traordinarily muscular with no extra
pounds Her exact measurements are
as follows: Forearm, inches; biceps
inches; wrist, 5 inches; calf, II
inches; thigh, 1914 inches; waist, IS
inches; neck, 10 inches; chest, 30
inches; reach, so inches.
Now, in addition to her muscle and
pretty face, Miss Ethe! is young lady
of marked initiative. When her stall
wart young brother confded TO her
quite in secret his pugilistic ambitious
she said TO him:
Listen to me. VIII. If you want to
be a fighter, skip rope 1t viii helT
your wind and it Will make your feet
nimble."
The budding champion laughed.
Whereupon his sister explained fur.
Their and ne took her advice. This was
two years ago. To-day he is the cham
pion. This illustrates the remarkable
sagacity of woman.
Having become an expert rope
skipper and demonstrated the wisdom
of the exercise to his own satisfaction,
young Mr. Rothwell needed no persua-
sion to adopt the next piece of ad-
vice his sister gave him.
This was that he should try saw
ing wood In the back yard of the
Rothwel.t house there is always an
enormous stack of logs and a large
saw She advised him to saw with his
right hand for IS or 20 minutes and
then do the same With his left. This
was o help him al puncher. She was
always present to see that he did it
well.
If he grew tired she still kept him
at it.
Before entering battle Young Cor
bett was coached at home or at his
training quarters by this sister. At
almost every fight She accompanied
him a far is the amphitheater, when
she would go home and await the re-
suit Of his encounter Her advice was
always; Keep cool and let the other
fellow Go the worrying.
She figured that he would have a bet
ter show Of winning by sidestepping
his opponent and delivering his fa-
nous punches to the right or left jaw.
1t was seen about two wears ago that
the kid" changed his tactics in the
ring, and ii was at his sisters advice
that ne did so.

Favus, or Sore Head.

Favus is a disease of the scalp,
caused by a vegetable parasite,
and the treatment recommended
is an ointment composed of two
per cent carbollc acid and vase
line. The "car bolized" vaseline
of the drug store is the sub
stance used. Sore head prevails
in southern states more than in
the north, and sometimes much
difficulty is experienced in its
cure. Good results will also re-
suit if the carbolized vaseline is
reinforced by cedar oil, such as
an ounce of the carbolized vase
line, a teaspoonful of cedar oil,
and level tablespoonful of cedar
oil, and a level tablespoonful of
finely pulYerized sulphur. APP

BOWEL TROUBLE IN FOWLS.
Some OF The Causes and Some Re-
needles.

One cause of diarrhoea is
coarse or half-cocked food. Too
much bran, or only warming IT
with tepid water, leads to diar-
rhoea. The safe plan, to avoid
this danger, is to bake, in milk
pans for at least one hour, all
chicken mash. l take no chance S
from half-cocked food, and am
sure, from my own experience,
that it pays well to take the ex-
ira time involved.
Avoid feeding sour milk to
very young chicks, if it, in hot
weather, is likely to prod uce
bowel trouble. The absence of
grit will loosen the discharge
from the bowels.
A sudden shower sometimes
so chills young chicks as to pro-
duce diarrhoea.
Chicks with diarrhoea should
first of all have a conform BILE
place to rest in. This does not
mean they are to be coddled.
they are to have a good chance
90 get in the open air and on
clean earth if they wish, with
Just as free an opportunity to
get into warm brooder when
they so desire. The food should
be either dry grain, with plenty
of the right sized grit, or well
cooked mash that is constipating.
Mash to be of this character
should contain less bran and
more middlings and be mixed
with milk and baked.
Hens have diarrhoea from i'm
proper feeling Irregular, care
less giving OF food, too much to-
day, too little tomorrow, none at
all the next day, upsets crop,
gizzard and bowels.
Another source of bowel trou-
bic is filthy drinking water. It
is not enough to add each day
water to that left over from the
day before, never cleaning the
dish. Water vessels should be
rinsed every day and filled with
fresh, chean water, not FORGETTING
a weekly scaldlng in warm wealth
er.
Old hens that have been over
fat and are breaking down as d
result, often have bad smelling
diarrhoea.
Hens running wild on the
farm, having full liberty to for
age for themselves, seldom have
diarrhoea, but tappears contn-
ed and dependent upon man for
food and drink.
Give every bird with diarrhoea
the chance T. get at growing
grass, if in the season of il; feed
dry grain, largely wheat; add one
teaspoonful tlncture iron 10 each
quart of drinking water,and give
in earthen vessels. If the at
tack of diarrhoea is sudden and
acute, give one teaspoonful cas-
tor oil and followit in an hour
with three grains Dover's pow
der.
Diarrhoea isseeniu some cases
of scrofula, consumption and
and will be consil-
cred in connection with those
diseases. ~ American Poultry
