Gapes in Chickens.

The gapes is a disease of the threat
and windpipe of young chicks caused
by Il parasite or small worm. 1t causes
the chick TO be continually gaping, as If
it was choking or short of breath hence
the names gapeS. The best remedy is to
take a feather. dip it in coal oil or tur-
peGtine. push it down the chicks throat.
giving it twist or two. which disIodges
the worms, causing them to come out
with the feather. Where gapes is
prevalent it is well to change the l0ca-
ton of the poultry yard. as the parasites
seem to like certain soils better than
others. Certain neighborhoods are much
more affected with it than others. If
you have too many chicks affected with
gapes to treat each one ne above. try a
few drops of oil of sassafras in their
feed or drinking water.-Thomas Owen

IN TOUCH WITH NATURE.

o, land of the still and silent
o, land OF the sheeted snow,
Grant me a share of thy solitude
While the sands Of Time run slow
For am worn with stress of life,
Its clamor and strivings vain.
Ambitions ranking crown of thorns,
And efforts cross of pain.
Give me the balm of thy fr-trees,
Odors of cedar and pine.
A couch of resinous hemlock,
And air like q rare old wine:
And so shall my soul find healing.
While the harper Wind sings low,
who shares in the peace of Nature,
Wins glimpses of heaven below"

In the latitude of Boston, according to

does not come from the desire of the Federal government

tricks known To the tinny tribe and MANY
new ones 1t would set off at tremen-
dous speed. towing the skiff after il at
a rate that made the water churn. Then
suddenly the line would slackeu. and
Peterson could hardly reel III his line
fast enough to keep it taut as the fish
came near.

The 18th of May in Norway is
to the Norweigans what the 4th Of

at the home of Ole Dahl, about IL
miles South of the city the Norwei

together in honor Of the day.
The Norwegian and American
flags were used in many different
combinations and waved from the
tops Of the lofty oaks. Anders L.
Mordt explained to those assembl-
ed the meaning Of the day and the
cause for its celebration. Mr. T.
H. Dwyer was the next speaker
and he referred to the troubles Of
of Norway for the past two hundr
ed years and the troubles of
ireland for the same length of time
The similarity of their troubles
and the nearness of location had
made a tie that bound Norway
and ireland together. Mr.. Dwyer
was warmly spplauded.
After the speeches big basket
dinner was enjoyed, and later ice
cream. The American neighbors
of the Norweigans helped to make
the day a real holiday. After the
