FEATHERlESS CHICKENS
ARE NOW GROWING HAIR
Remarkable Result of An Experiment
Based on Bulletin Sent Out by
Agriculture Department.

q kANRABEE, ILLS. March 23.-
When the Secretary OF Agriculture.
sent out his bulletin three years ago
relating the result OF the experiment
in southern California in raising fea.
therless poultry, one Of the first men
in the country to take up the idea as
a practically was Elias Blaisdell,
chicken farmer, who lives about four
miles north Of here, and is accounted
one of the most successful men in
the business.
Secretary Wilson did not indorsc
or recommendej the artificial stop
isage of tho growth of feathers, but
related it as an interesting study Of
the effects of diet. The poulterer:
in Southern California found that by
feeding generation after generation
of chicks on hot, soft mixture the
size of tlc feathers gradually de-
creased aud made the birds much
easier to pluck for market.
Blaisdell went into the. scheme sys-
tematically, with brood of five hun.
dred. and at the end of eighteen
months had produced an almost fea-
tlerless breed, but on the body only.
He could not reduce the size of the
long pin-feathers OF the wings, but
stuck to the job for another year, in
creasing the strength of the heating
food with each successive brood
Nov he has sustained a most extra
ordinary result. He has sixty pullets
which are not only without feathers
ON back Or breast, but have sprout d
stiff, hairy coat, which makes them
lcok like two-legged dogs with wings
and beak.
The hens act in the natural way
and are cheerful but the roosters in
the flock are the most woebegone,
sllame,faced things that can lie mag.
ined There is no fight in amy one OF
them. They NOPE around the chick
Ell yard all day as IL ashamed of
their partial nakedness and unnatural
covering.
Blaisdell says he will stop further
experimentation, as be believes it
would be more expensive and tedious
TO pluck out the hairs with tweezers,
than to pluck the natural feathers.
It is often harder to forgive than to
give.
FL 1t is sometimes easier to get than
to forget.
Money isn't everything, but ii often
makes mighty good imitation.
Handy" people are Often seriously
Handicapped by their very. versatility.
4 Successful men seldom succeed in
imparting to others the secret of
their success.
A man never realizes what solitude
really is until he is cast away in the
stony desert of a great city.

Nerve

Everything depends upon
your nerves. 1t is nerve force
that causes the bra;, to direct
the motion Of your body; it is
nerve force that causes your
heart to pulsate, and send the
blood through your veins; it
is nerve force that causes your
stomach to digest food, your
kidneys to filter the blood, and
the liver to secrete bile.
In TACT, nerve force is the
power that runs your body, SO
if you fee! WORKOUT, irritable,
nervous, cannot sleep, or eat
we'll, have pain or misery
anywhere, your nerves are
weak, and your system run
down. To restore this vitality
take DR.. Miles Nervine which
will strengthen and build up
the nerves. You cannot be
healthy without strong nerves:
For eighteen years Dr. Miles
Neryine and Anti-Pain Pils have been
my close companions. Early in mar
ried life, while raising children. my
nerves became all worn could not
slecp; had no appetite; Indigestion
very bad and had such awful dizzy
spells. Then / began using DIR. Miles
Neryine. and at once l began to i'm
prove. and soon found myself in
perfect health"

The origin OF the phrase, "A capful

King, Eric VI, who died in 9O7 4. D.

of directing the wind to blow where he
wished by the simple method of turn
lug his cap to that point of the COM
pass. His powers We're much appreci-
ated nnd trusted and resulted in his
being known as windy cap" There Ia
TO evidence as to whether he could reg.
ulate the force of the wind rs well as
the direction. Presumably he could, or
his faithful believers would not have
been SO many. A "bagful of wind" is
