Do Your Own Shipping.

Ship your market poultry. Don't sell to a
travelling buyer if you have anything over two
dozen fowls to send to market. Obtain the adj
dress of some reliable commission house and be-
fore shipping write to the firm, describing what
you have to dispose of and asking when to send
it and in what shape it should be shipped. In
formation of this kind will be given willingly by
the commission house, and it will always prove Of
advantage to the shipper. This writer has profit
ed by the advice of these people often enough to
make him feel safe in recommending it to others.
The commission merchant has an intimate knowl-
edge of the demands of the market. It is to his
interest to give his patrons the benefit of this
knowledge, as he thereby increases the prospeo
of securing their future business. There are snide
commission houses, but it is the shippers own
fault if he falls into the hands of a firm of that
kind-Wallace' Farmer.

Good Things for Fowls.

E Turpentine is good for bruises, infammations,
worms and broken limbs.
Tincture of iron is good for chickenpox, sore
head and ulcers of all kinds.
Chlorate of potash is good for any throat
trouble.
Bicarbonate of soda is good for Indigestion.
Camphor is good for games in young chicks.
Carbolic acid is good for disinfecting.
The above things are all useful in the poultry
house, and while healthy fowls need no medicine,
still accidents may happen at any time, and it is
well to have remedies at hand.
Common sense treatment will do more to keep
the fowls healthy than all the physic in the world.
Home and Farm.
The progressive farmer. [volume] (Winston, N.C.) 1886-1904, 1904-08-23

Mr.. Elwood E. Smith, well known of this coun-
ty, bred his grade Shropshires to one of our small
Ter Merinos last fall, and says he never succeeded
in raising over one hundred per cent of lambs
from his ewes before, and pronounces them the
best lot of lambs he ever raised.
I will say again, because I am so often asked
about it, that the Merino, and especially the
American Merino, with its grades, is the most
suitable, all things considered, with which to
stock the farms and plantations generally under
their present conditions, and with their present
productions in North Carolina and all the States
south of the Blue Ridge and southwest of the
Ozark Mountains of Missouri.
I must not be understood as saying this to the
exclusion of all or any other breeds of sheep, be-
cause the South is so well adapted to sheep hus-
bandry and so diversified in every way that she can
and will eventually find most suitable and healthy
homes for the profitable management of every
well known breed of sheep, and also for cashmere
Angora and Milk goats.
Those who wish to handle the old Pine Woods
sheep or small coarse wool mutton, or the large
coarse combing wool sheep, any or all of them
included, should get them, for there is only one
thing that / am anxious and enthusiastic about,
and that is, let the farmers and planters get more
and better sheep OF some kind, take care OF them,
improve and feed them well, and experience will
soon inform the intelligent people of the South
the kind that will suit them beat.
/ have only touched upon the main reasons why
it might be profitable for the people of North
Carolina and the South to get sheep and pro-
duce an abundance of wool and mutton, and will
only add that the demand in the United States
for wooden clothing, and especially fine wool, is
ever with US, and is increasingly so. The supply
of mutton has increased greatly in the last ten
years, and yet the unsupplied demand for mutton
is greater to-day than it has ever been in the
United States. The outlook for sheep husbandry
in general was never better.

TURN WOMEN

"My husband worries so, Doctor, you

Thousands of unfortunate women are

They have tried to fight off ill health;
have struggled to keep up in spite of pain

not guess their condition.
At last comes q day when they can do
this no longer. Their strength is gone;
their will power no longer strong enough
to carry them through. So they turn to

but for some drug that will give tempo

that will make them bright and cheer

come a real pleasure: We all realize

must be stretched gently in place, and
held with pins not more than twelve
or fifteen inches apart. If pins and

hung over the tablecloth, allowing the
same pins to do service for both.
Shake out all unnecessary folds and
wrinkles that may remain. When
possible, leave out until dampened by
dew; il not. sprinkle, and fold in the
usual manner. Let lay at least an
hour or so, then shake out, and iron

success. Turpentine in the starch

The progress Of civilization is shown
by the completion OF q telephone line
through the thick jungle $50 miles
wide, in the heart OF Africa. It has

The wires are strung on iron posts
and on the largest trees Of the jungle.
Some of the poles are half q mile
apart, where the wires cross q swift
river or . dangerous swamp.
Posts could not be used on account
of the white ants, and the large num-
Der of elephants made it necessary to
keep the wires high above the ground.

Hygienic clothing should be warm

the elements or sudden changes of
temperature should wear finely WOW.

she wore for 90 many weary hours.
Shortly after the coronation OF

paint a portrait of the Queen in her

A SKY BILL BOARD.
A Light Which Will Project Letters Against
the Sky to Be Read $50 Miles

The largest searchlight in the world,
manufactured in Germany, within a
week will crown the dome OF the Wo-
mans Magazine building, northwest
OF the worlds fair grounds. The lens
is seven feet in diameter and will re.
fleet light of 100000 candle power
that can be seen 200 miles from St.
Louis. 1t was the intention to install
the light secretly and in the middle OF
the night flash its rays across the city.
The light will be one of the features
OF the worlds fair. at st. Louis. 1t
will throw letters against the sky that
can be read $50 miles away. Worlds
fair dates and events of unusual inter-
est will be heralded abroad within a
circle OF more than 900 miles in this
novel fashion. No searchlight on the
grounds will compare with this giant
lamp.
1t will be installed on the highest
point in St. Louis. The dome of the
building is 1876 feet from the ground,
and the ground at that point is 116
feet above Broadway. The lamp is
mechanically arranged SO that at the
touch OF key it will recede into the
dome and be completely covered. 1t
can be directed at any angle in every
point of the compass by a simple ma.
nipulation OF keys from the Office.
The light was brought here in a spe.
cial Pullman car. 1t required several
months to grind the lens, which, if
injured, could not be replaced before
the fair closed.

In making paper car wheels 120 to
$50 layers are put together with flour
paste and subjected to pressure Of
500 tons, while at a temperature Of
l20 degrees Fahrenheit. The blocks
are then turned in lathe, slightly
larger than the tire, and the holes
bored for the cast iron center. In
turning, the paper blocks make a
shaving that resembles strips Of
leather. The average life of the tire
OF a paper wheel is about 100000
miles. That represents about one
and one-quarter inch wear. The GEN.
ters do not seem to be affected by SER
vice. and they are always good for re.
newal OF tires unless some accident
happens to them.

1t is only in recent years that the

Except in Colorado, where there are
five such, the few States in which wo-
