HOT MILK OR RUM I?
The Former Is Becoming Da ngerOus
Competitor of the Liquor Traffic
in Stockholm.

Hot milk is becoming dangerous
competitor of the liquor traffic in
Stockholm. Prof. Curt Wallis is
warm champion of the idea of combat
ing the liquor evil with the aid of milk,
and recommends the method intro
duced by Miss Utrech in Stockholm.
This is quite simple. just an auto
matte contrivance. something on the
order of the slot machine, so popular
in America. where for small coin
five ore-a quarter of ltre of milk,
heated to 20 degrees celsius, can be Sc
cured.
The experiment was begun last win
fer with two machines. In four months
$1,000 mugs of hot milk had been dis
posed of. The experiment was consid-
cred so successful that four more ma
chimes were added this winter. The
purpose Of Miss Utrech was to supply
night workers and those who went to
work early in the morning with a
stimulating and warming beverage
and to guard against the temptation of
visiting the liquor joints.
Prof. Wallis is of the opinion that the
idea will be adopted all over Sweden
and other countries, and will prove an
untold blessing not only to the work.

A TEMPERANCE RAILROAD.
Only Line in the World That Is Tenn
pernnce Throughout Its
Entire Length.

1t is stated that the only railroad
in the world along whose route liquor
cannot be sold is the St. Louis. Wat
kins & Gulf railroad, from Lake
Charles to Alexandria, La. a distance
of 100 miles. The builder of the road
bought and incorporated all the town
sites along the line, and the deeds
for all lots contain the following
stringent anti-liquor clause:
"The said purchaser, his heirs or
assigns. shall not at any time manu-
facture or sell Intoxicating liquors
upon said premises, except for medi-
cinal. mechanical or scientific pur-
poses; and should this condition be
broken. this deed shall Immediately
and ipSo facto be and become null
and void, and the title shall imme-
diately and ipso facto revert to and
vest in said vendor, and said vendor
shall not be under any obligations to
return any part of the purchase
price"
During the 13 years there has been
only one violation, and the decision
of the appellate court of Louisiana,
in affirming the validity of this stipu-
lation, is such that there will not be
another violation.
\ lot owner had violated its terms,
and the railway company demanded
the property. The judge ruled that
the condition was binding, and that
the land reverted to the railway COM
pany the moment it proved that the
conditions of the deed had been dis
regarded.
The decision is clear. clean-cut and
sweeping, establishing in q straight
forward way, easily understood by
anyone every condition in the anti
liquor clause. The railroad and its
protector are to be congratulated on
their record and on the vindication OF
their policy by the courts.

Read how easily it can be done.
w. J. Hill, of 40 South Union Street,
Concord, n. c., proprietor of hardware
and harness store, Justice of the Peace,
and one of the best known residents of
that city, says: "Doan's Kidney Pills
proved very efficient remedy in my
case. got a box at the Gibson Drug
Store and used them for disordered
kidneys and bacllache from which l had
experienced a great deal of annoyance,
trouble and pain. The kidney secre-
tions had bothered me for long while,
were very irregular, dark colored and
full of sediment. The Pills cleared it
all up and L have not had an ache in my
back since taking the last dose. My
back is much stronger and my health
generally is improved a great deal. l
am glad to make public endorsement
of the Pills trusting that it may be
the means of relieving some other
sufferer"

"FIGHTING SAM"
Story of How One Hard-FIisted Man
of God Cleaned His Town of
the Cursed SaIoOm-

He was a preacher in charge of an
extensive county circuit, the center of
which was our picturesque village.
For generations the little town had
maintained an unwritten law that each
of its citizens must have a nickname.
The merchant was "Dooney." the
blacksmith BILLY" and the grocer
"Polly." Upon the arrival of Rev. Sam
uel Van Croft he was irreverently re-
ferred to as Sam" Later. when his
pugihstic qualities had been shown in
chastising the young DULLES who dis
turbed his meetings, the prefix was
attached, and Fighting Sam" received
his new appellation with jolly good
nature, proving himself worthy of the
title.
B Life in this sequestered place was
dull enough. but that some things are
worse than monotony was demon
strated when a liquor dealer rented a
small storeroom and began the sale
of intoXicants. One week. and the
peace of years was broken. The pleas
ant evening hours, wont to be filed
with quiet and good cheer. were now
hideous with sounds of revelry. Wom-
en- dared not venture forth after night
fall, even to the weekly prayer meet
ing. lest some drunken man should
reel cugsing across their path. Most
deplorable of all was the demoralizing
effect upon the youth of the com
munity.
But what to do was the question

What were they going to do about it &?
The evil continued until the peace-lov-

was that the Rev. Samuel Van Croft

mouth of the bag and fasten it into
the crotched sticks so it will swivel and
the device is ready for use. 1t is well
to have on hand one or two poles of
different lengths and two short straps,
with which to unite them. This device
will reach a swarm 80 feet from the
ground. 1t is light and no matter what
angle the pole is held the bag is always
perpendicular. To hive swarm whose
queen is at large with the bees. bring
the swarm catcher right up under the
cluster and give it a sharp jerk up
wards and the cluster will drop from
the limb right into the mouth of the
catcher. Carry to the hive and invert
the bag. or rather turn it inside out.
and the bees will drop in front of the
hive and run into it and the hiving is
done.-F. G. Herman, in Epitomist.

KEEPING LARGE FLOCKS.
HOW to Manage Them So That They
VIII Pay IA Fair and Steady
share of Profit.

When large focks are kept. the mat
ter of having them always in proper
condition becomes difficult. Either
the entire time of the poultrvman
must be bstowed upon the fowls. or
the flock must be reduced. In order
to give his attention, the number of
hens kept must be sufficient to re-
munerate him for his labor. If this
is not done there will be no profit.
If the number is too small, the labor
will be too large an item. and failure
will be the result. 1t is on this point
that majority of failures occur. 1t
may be safely stated that 5bU hens
will not support moderate family,
but there are few persons who keep
more than that number. Like any
other occupation. the expense must
be taken out, and whether the ex-
penseS are too great or not depends
upon the operations. As one man can
attend to 1000 hens nearly as well
as he can to 500. it is plain that the
smaller the flock the greater the pro-
pOrtionate expense. Many make the
mistake of epdeavoring to keep too
many fowls together. thus inviting
disease and lice. When lice make
their appearance in a large flock of
several hundred, it is usually an end
of the enterprise, as the labor is at
once doubled. By beginning with
clean premises. and cleaning them
daily, as is done with stables, much
difficulty may be avoided. Large
tioclls may be kept as easily as small
ones, provided they are divided into
families and unceasing vigilance and
attention are bestowed. Most of the
experienced poultrymen estimate
that each hen will afford profit of
81 year. This may seem small to
some, but it means that after the in
terest on the capital, food, and other
cash expenses are paid it is really a
large profit, as most hens are not
valued at more than half that sum-
and with a flock of 30 hens it repre-
sents the interest of $500 at six per
cert. When we take into consider
alton the fact that on most farms
the actual capital invested in poultry
is very small, the profit from the
hens is usually quite large. The sick
fowls and those that do not lay re-
duce the average for all the members
of the fock.-Farm and Fireside.

warning, and the three potentates, the

Arriving at the saloon they found il

POULTRY PARAGRAPHS.

Good stock will find qsicker sales
at good prices than poor stock at any
price.
The surest, safest cure for feather
pulling is to send the guilty ones to
market.
In arranging the poultry house for
the spring campaign place all roosts
on a level.
Have roosts and nest boxes so ar
ranged as to be easily cleaned and
kept free from lice.
See that the shells of eggs set are
perfect before putting under the hen
or in the incubator.
Hens in idleness are apt to contract
bad habits. Fill the pens with litter
and keep them busy.
Poles used for roosts should be
peeled, otherwise they make most ex-
cellent homes for mites.
