big proportions. This is the leading
poultry house of the kind in the north
west, handling from five to twelve
hundred birds each day. Their cold
storage plant is always full with
choice birds, and they have developed
several important supply centers, not
able among which are the Yakima
valley, including Ellensburg in the
Kittitas, the Big Bend section, the
Walla Walla and Dayton districts, the
Wenatchee valley, and parts of Oregon,
from all of which they receive regular
shipments. Yet they do not receive a
sufficient number of birds to meet de-
mands, and have to go farther east for
the deficiency.
Besides supplying local demands
with poultry, the Burch Brothers send
large numbers to Alaska points, as
well as making an occasional shipment

Tuberculosis in Chickens.

A correspondent of Wallace's Farm
er recently propounded the following
query: "Have you or any of your read
ers ever had case like this: Two or
three of my hens died lately, and they
did not look to be very sick, either.
A couple of days before death they
quit hustling, and sat around, not car
ing to eat. After the death of the last
one l cut it open and found the in
testines covered with small punches
or balls of different sizes and colors,
some blood red, some white and gray,
some yellow-looking like gristle or
Jumps of fat. If squeezed they will
pop out of the casing like the tuber-
cles in hog cholera. Can it possibly
be tuberculosis or cholera? The abb
dominal cavity was full of intestinal
fluid; other organs normal"
The answer said it was quite posi-
BILE that the hens had tuberculosis.
Close watch probably would have
shown symptoms of trouble earlier

than a couple of days before death.
tuberculosis is induced by unbalanced
or insufficient food, in-breeding, breed
ing from fowls that have had roup;
also by damp or poorly ventilated
quarters. 1t is accompanied by vast
ing, fever, and sometimes diarrhoea.
The bird may have a good appetite,
but passes the food undigested.
Cholera in chickens is distinguished
by the following symptoms, but case
of genuine cholera is, however, rare:
There is looseness of the bowels, yell
low, or greenish discharges, roughen-
ed feathers, dropping of the wings,
contracted neck, excessive weakness,
drowsiness, great thirst, distended
crop exhaustion, and speedy death.
Treatment in either cholera or tu-
berculosis is practically useless. ALL

Preserving Eggs by Water Glass.

TTCoCi" wing -SS~ ~
Covering eggs with solution or wa
ter-glass is most simple and efhclent
method of preserving eggs for several
months. This preparation has been
tested by various experiment stations
and has proved to be the best method
of preserving eggs yet discovered
except artificial cold storage. 1t is pc
inc used to some extent in CONNER
cial way, as we'll as by farmers and
housekeepers who wish to pack away
eggs when they are cheap and plenty
for use in the fall and winter when
they are scarce and high in price.
Strictly fresh, clean eggs are neces-
sary to put down. Stale or dirty eggs
will not keep well. Eggs should not
be washed. They should be packed
preferably small end down, in o stone
lar. or other suitable vessel, which
should be place in a cool, dark place.
To ten or fifteen quarts of water, which
has been boiled and cooled, add one
quart of water-glass Sodium silicate)
which may be obtained of most drug
gists. A good grade of water-glass
should be used. The vessel should be
kept tightly covered to prevent evapor,
alton. If the preserved eggs are kept

Take Your Poultry to Portland.
The poultrymen of the state ought to
have large exhibit of poultry at the
Lewis and Clark fair, Portland, where
a poultry show will be held October
5 to -, entries closing September B.
1t is up to the breeders of good poul-
try to demonstrate to the eastern visl-
tors at the big fair that the state OF
Washington can produce as good birds
in our country as can be raised in any
section of the United States. We have
every condition in this state that is
necessary to the production of fowls,
and all we need is more breeders
There are lot of people who will visit
the fair who will be interested in the
production of chickens, and it behooves
the poultrymen to demonstrate to
them that Washington is the state Tor
them to settle in. We import a lot OF
eggs into the state every year. we
never produce enough fowls for the
home consumption, and we should be
supplying the markets on the east OF
us and giving Alaska all she needs IN

Let Hens Moult Early

The moulting season is upon us once
again, and we should get the hens to
moulting as fast as possible. 1t is
the early moulting hens that make the
early fall and continuous winter layers.
There is no use for it's requiring three
months for hen to shed her old coat
and take on her new one July is the
month to get your hens into condi-'
ton to moult
Put your hens on short rations for
the next two or three weeks. Shut Off
the corn diet, and instead feed them
something like wheat bran and mid
dlings. This sort of diet will soon
reduce their flesh. Get them down in
flesh as much as possible. This treat
ment will stop the egg supply, but this
should not in the least interest you in
asmuch as you are not expecting eggs
during this treatment
After you have the hens reduced in
flesh to almost skin and bones, then re-
verse the feeding and fill them up on
fattening feed, such as corn and once
a day a mash to which add linseed
meal in liberal quantities and meat.
In a few days the old feathers will
fairly drop out by the handfuls-and
in a short time the new ones will be-
gin coming in.
In this way you will soon have been
clad in new coat and by September LIST
they will be ready to lay, while your
neighbor's hens will be just commenc-
ing the moult and it will continue I'M
til cold weather. 1t pays to get the
old feathers out and the new ones in
as rapidly and early as possible.
The Egg-Laying Hen.
Since pOultrymen have begun to aim
at a high standard in egg production
and to strive for the 200-egg hen
(the type, not the individually, much
advance has been made, although the
friends of the White Leghorns claim
their bird still heads the list. OF
course, there are hens and hens even
of this egg laying breed, and some OF
them fall far below the standard. 1t
is interesting to note the formation OF
the real egg producer. The egg pro-
Queer has long back which is easily
noted when she is seen with ordinary
fowls. The breast is also low and
there is a heaviness of the body be-
hind. In one word the carcass may
be called plump. The comb and wat
ties are fiery red, the eyes bright, and
the bird has an alertness which does
not seem to be prominent in other in
dividuals which are not so good layers.
1t pays to look over the birds very
carefully and if one has standard to
go by, it will be seen that in nine cases
out of ten the bird which looks like
a layer of few eggs will be found to
be So

too warm, the silicate is deposited and
the eggs are not properly protected.
The solution may be prepared, placed
in the jar and fresh eggs added from
time to time until the jar is full, but
be sure that there are fully two inche'
of the solution covering the eggs.
The eggs may be taken out from time
to time as needed. They may be COW
cred with a jelly-like solution which
is easily washed off. All packed eggs
contain a little gas and in boiling the
shell will crack. This may be pre-
vented by making a pin-hole in the
large end of the egg before cooking.
One farmer in the East reports pre-
serving 5000 dozen eggs last season
by this method He sold them in De.
cember and January and received the
same price that strictly fresh eggs
sold for. While eggs preserved in this
they are better than the usual run Of
fresh stock to be had at the stores.
Poultry at Lewis and Clark Fair.
Fred A. Johnson has been appointed
to get up an exhibit of poultry from
Tacoma and Pierce county for the
Lewis and Clark fair. Mr.. Johnson is
one of the largest exhibitors in the
state and he will without doubt make
a good showing for his county at Port
land.
J. L. Anderson, of Fremont, has been
appointed to look after the poultry in
terest from King county at the Lewis
and Clark fair and he will see that the
best in King county is on hand there
in October. G. J. Greenache, of NORTH
Yakima, will get together the exhibit
from Yakima county and it is expected
that H. w. Illman will look after the
poultry interests for SnohOmish.

Burch Bros, Poultry Dealers.

The business conducted by the Burch
Brothers in Seattle is one in which
few have so far engaged in this part
of the state. Poultry for the table is
in demand everywhere and the local
market is unable to secure a sufff
cheney from home points, hence large
quantity has to be shipped in from
eastern points. The Burch Brothers
long ago saw that with a modern cold
storage plant centrally located they
would be in position to supply many
orders that no one else could take
care of, so six years ago they estab-
lished their present business and have
had the pleasure of seeing it grow into

TURKEY IS VERY BACKWARD
Electricity Has Not Been welcomed
in the sultan's Domains
No Telephones.

Among other curious features
which make Turkey an anomaly
in Europe and among modern gov
ernments is the ban against cleo
tricity in the dominions of the sui
tan. There are 20 electric lights.
yet there are gas plants; there are
no telephones, yet the Turks
utilize the telegraph; and the first
electric railway is to be built,
although steam roads are no long
er a novelty. 1t will not be long,
however, before this barrier to
progress will be removed, for, ae-
cording to United States Consul
Ravndal, plans for an electric
railway and for electric lighting
at Damascus are under serious
consideration. That such project
should be taken up in this, the old.
est surviving city in history, indi-

Hopkinsville Women Are
Finding Relief at Home.

It does seem that women have
more than fair share of the aches
and pains that afflict humanity; they
must keep up" must attend to
duties in spite of constantly aching
backs, or headaches, dizzy spells,
bearing down pains; they must stoop
over, when to stOop over means tor
ture. They must walk and bend and
work with racking pains and many
aches from kidney ills. Kidneys
cause more suffering than any other
organ of the body. Keep the kid
neys we'll and health is easily main
tanned. Read of a remedy for kid
neys only that helps and cures the
kidneys and is endorsed by people
you know.
Mrs. John Coombs, of 1926 South
Virginia street, says: For a great
many years l suffered with a persis-
tent aching across my loins and
through the kidneys. At times my
back was so bad that | could hardly
turn in bed and l could hardly lie on
my back at all without placing my
hand under it which seemed in some
measure to relieve the pain. A friend
of Mr.. Coombs told him about Doan's
Kidney Pills and he got a box for me
at Thomas & Trahern's drug store.
On using them | steadily improved
until the dreadful aching was re-
lieved and l could attend to my
household duties without any incon-
venience. They did more for me
than any medicine l ever used and
