WHAT CHICKEN WAS LIKE.
Effect Of Prenatal influences On a
Younu Rooster.

h following story was published
recently. 1t was attributed to Rep.
reseutative Flanagan of New Jersey,
a millionaire from Morristown. He
told the story at a picnic of Patrons
Of Husbandry at Tuttle's Grove, near
Morristown.
Il was riding from Baltimore to
Washington on a fast train one day"
said Mr.. Flanagan. The car window
was open. AS we passed another ex.
press train going in the opposite di.
dection a hen caught in the vortex be-.
tween the two trains was lifted in the
air and slammed against the side Of
our car. AS it struck. an egg was cast
in at the open window and fell in my
lap
'Of course it didn't break" said a
cynic among the listeners.
1T did not break" went on the rep.
r~esentative. Because OF its prema.
ture appearance the shell was not
hard, but tough and leathery instead.
l took 1t home and put it in an incu.
bator and in time Matched out a fine
chicken
Did you observe in the eggs of.
spring any evidence of prenatal infiu.
ences?" asked the schoolmaster, shov.
ing his glasses up on his forehead.
Only this" said the representa-
tive, the chicken was a rooster, and
whenever it tried to crow it whistled

Summer and Fall FEEDING.

Wise dairymen now feed their cows
In both summer and fall II the mas.
lures are such as not to give a full
reed without too much labor on the
part of the cows. Allowing cows IN
fall on In their milk is not a profta.
Bile operation. 1t may save a little
Feed, but 1t loses far more in the yalpe
OF lost milk. When cows are allowed
to drop In their milk yields for even
a few weeks they can not be brought
back to their previous yields until
they again come in fresh. The men
tina have planted corn. oats, peas
INT the like for summer feed will
have no trouble this summer and fail
In keeping up the milk flow. Those
thai have silage will find no dificuItv
at all. The men that have no green
u to feed can only lament Their
misfortune, as it Is very doubtful a,
at the present prices. It will nav ~
feed considerable quantities to the
cow on pasture.

A Disastrous "Joke.v

Thinking to play a practical joke on
his father, a Berlin schoolboy hlled
a table peppermint with gunpowder.
His father. who was very ne%ar.sighted,
looked closely into his plate. as he
turned the handle. There wa BAN ex.
plosion, and the poor man v j tenn
porarily blinded, while the tip of his
nose was blown off.
The delinquent, who was sitting
close by, received some OF the gun
powder in his eyes, and was so aghast
at the result of his trick that he
tainted, and Is now dangerously i'll
with high fever.
The father will lose the sight of
one eye, but the piece blown from
his nose has been put on again by a
clever young surgeon.-London Mail.

MIX Hauling AIFaetories.


In some Of the localities where there
are creameries the milk Is hauled by
the patrons. In other localities the
creameries do the hauling themselves.
There are some advantages and some
disadvantages for each method. one
Of the reasons why the factory can al
ford to haul Its wi milk Is that IL
thereby gets about all the milk there
Is in a locality and gets II all the
time. Where farmers haul their own
milk they cannot be depended on TO
bring the supply at all times. In the
summer time when the field work is
pressing they not infrequently find 1t
pays them better to keep the milk at
home for a day or two and make but
ter from 1t than to take the time OF a
man and horse going to the creamery.
or course there are obstacles In the
way OF the milk being gathered by a
factory employe. One OF the obstacles
is the difficulty Of working in the
Babcock test with such a system. III
a nan goes out to gather milk he can.
not carry one or more can for each
customer II his milk route includes q
large number Of patrons. He wants
TO economic space by putting the
milk of several patrons into n can,
where that can be done. Analysis OF
any value to the individual patron be-
comes then impossible. Nevertheless
1t may we'll be doubted IL It pays 0
farmer with a few cows to haul his
milk to market himself, II his time ia
OF any value. Where 1t car be prop,
erly controlled the hauling Of milk by
the factory is advisable.

A WORTHY SUCCESSOR.


All doctors have tried to cure cat
arrh by the use of powders, acid
gases, inhalers and drugs in paste
form. Their powders dry up the
mucous membranes, causing them to
crack open and bleed. The powerful
acids used in the inhailers have en-
tirely eaten away the same mem
branes that their makers have aimed
to cure, while pastes and ointments
cannot reach the disease. An old and
experienced practitioner who has for
many years made close study and
specially OF the treatment of catarrh,
has at last perfected a treatment
which when faithfully used, not
only relieves at once, but perma-
nently cures catarrh, by removing
the cause, stopping the discharges,
and curing all Inflammation. 1t is
the cnly remedy known to science
that actually reaches the afflicted
parts. This wonderful remedy is
knownsas "Snuffles, the guaranteed
catarrh cure" and is sold at the ex-
tISulSiy low price Oi OItc DolldI,
each package containing internal
and external medicine sufficient for
Il full months treatment and every
thing necessary to its perfect use.
"Snutfles" is the only perfect cat
arrh cure ever made, and is now rec
ognized as the only safe and positive
cure for that annoying and disgust
ing disease. 1t cures all inflamma-
tion quickly and permanently and is
also wonderfully quick to relieve
hay fever or cold in the head.
Catarrh when neglected often
leads to consumption - "Snutfles"
will save YOU if you use it at once.
1t is no ordinary remedy, but COM
plete treatment which is positively
guaranteed to cure catarrh in any
form or stage if used according to
the directions which accompany
each package. Don't delay but send
for it at once, and write full particu,
lars as to your condition, and You
will receive special advice from the
discoverer of this wonderful reme-
dy regarding your case without cost
to you beyond the regular price of
"Snuffles," the guaranteed catarrh
cure"

our important newspapers are IN an

Eastern publications.
The local newspaper is the best ad-
vertiser of any community.
The outside benefit which COM

getting the paper into the hands OF
outside people who might perhaps
be Interested in the community II
its advantages are properly brought
to their attention.
This phase OF the matter has been
very much neglected in most COM
munities. Some times a board of trade
or other commercial body has seen
to it that certain number of copies
of the local papers were mailed to
Kastern addresses. In few cases
advertising in Kasterh publications
has been used to secure the names to
send these local papers to, but l am
sorry to say that this practice is al
together too rare. 1t presents the
only rational method OF placing this
valuab local advertising matter in
the right hands.
/ say, then, to every man who feels
that he would like to have some in

try cross-road, or in metropolitan
center, support your local paper in
every way possible, and help to cir
culate it where it will do your COM
munity good.
