Points on Guinea Fowls.

Guinea fowls have dark colored
flesh, but it is very palatable.
In-breeding results in rendering the
birds tender and reduces their size.
The young of birds given their free
dom are hardy and will follow their
mother as soon almost as they are
out of the shell; at least they are
good trampers after they are day
old. The young live on bugs and
seeds discovered for them by the
mothers.
In the early laying season the birds
will lay their eggs anywhere, and
several will deposit their eggs in the
same locality. When about to sit they
seek separation and lay a dozen or
more eggs in a hidden nest, where
they incubate them.
The guineas differ from common
fowls in that the males are as anxious
about the brood as is the hen, and
helps take care of them during the
day time, forsaking them at night.
Guinea hens and their broods for
age in body, the old males helping
to keep up the laggards of the line.
At night each mother collects her own
broyd.
The young at very early age learn
to roost in the trees, even before they
can reach the branches by flying.
They half fly and half run up the
trunk Of the tree.
Guinea eggs are very fertile and
a large percentage of the birds hatch
ed live If they are permitted to run
wild with their mother.
Like the turkey, the guinea pre-
fers the open tree top to the secure
poultry house.

Dairy Schools.

The agricultural colleges of the
country are every year giving more
and more attention to their dairy
schools. We believe that as many
young men and women as possible,
that are interested in dairying, should
attend these schools. The entrance
is not, however, as easy as it was.
Some of the dairy schools make the
rule that the students must have had
at least six months experience in a
creamery or cheese factory. This rule
has been made because in the past it
has been found that the students that
make the most progress and are the
best satisfied with the schools are
those that have had such experience.
We think, however, that this may be
carried too far. We want good farm
buttermakers as well as good cream.

A Bargain.

It was in the raspberry-season, and
a freckled, barefooted little girl In a
torn blue calico gown came to the
door Of a country clearinghouse to

asked the mistress OF the house.
"They are fifteen cents a quart,
ma'am. But" she added, In the

establishment loses more by employ

lost in the course of a year will ag-

ter Young of this place, 10 a bright
boy, and one who Is very well liked
by all who know him.
For some years Orbra has suffered a
great deal with form of Kidney Trou-
BILE which was very annoying, and
which made him miserable all the
time. He had to get up three or four
times every night, almost all his life.
His father heard Of remedy called
Dodd's Kidney Pills, and bought some

that he is now completely cured of
the old trouble. He says:
"Dodd's Kidney Pills soon gave me
great relief. and now l can sleep all
night without having to get up. We
will alwa:'s praice Dodd's Kidney
Pills"
There are many children suffering
from Kidney and Urinary troubles
These disorders should pc promptly

safe and sure remedy for all such de
rangements.
Master Orbra Young conquered his
troubles and made a we'll boy Of him
self by using Dodd's Kidney Pills, and

means.
Parents should see to it that their
children are given a fair chance in
life, and there is nothing that car
