Political Paragraphs.


If the people want a judge to dis
pense justice and not politics, if they
want a judge who will render his de-
cisions with an eye single only to the
equity in case, they will vote for B.
w. Green.
*x*
The sentiment in favor of Judge
Green for president Judge grows
stronger and more pronounced as the
campaign advances. The important
thing now is to have this sentiment
crystalized into votes for Green on
election day.
*#*
Judge Green does not need to draw
upon ancient history to establish rec.
ord for his fitness as Judge. Fills rec
ord every day fully demonstrates that
Governor Pennypacker made no mis-
take when he appointed him president
judge of the twenty-fifth district. The
wisest and best thing for the voters of
this district, irrespective of party, is TO
keep him on the bench.-Loek Haven

Sick TURKEYS.

T. M. A. writes as follows: II have
healthy till a short time ago. Then
their heads began to swell up and
now are swollen to twice their nat.
ural size and some of the turkeys
have died. What Is the cause of this.
and is there any cure for 1t? Will
the chickens take it from the tur.
keys?"
The trouble is evidently roup, which
Is common to both turkeys and hens.
If the chickens run with the turkeys
they are liable to take it. This is
not sure to be the case, for the reason
that there are probably several dis.
tinct germ diseases that are called
roup. We know that there are at
least two. The fact is poultry dis
eases have not yet been thoroughly
studied by the scientists for the pur.
pose Of determining what germs u
certain diseases. We know that some
kinds Of roup affect both turkeys and
chickens; we do not know that some
kinds may not be confined to one
class of farm fowls.
Roup Is the most dreaded Of all the
diseases that affect turkeys, and If the
birds are sick with 1t we do not know
Of any better remedy than killing
and burying them. They certainly are
not fit to be eaten, and it Is doubtful
II they will be fit to eat at any time
after having recovered from the dis
ease. Chickens affected with roup
have been cured apparently and then
dressed for the table. In such cases
they have had to be thrown away, as
there were collections of slime be.
tween the layers of flesh even in the
legs.
Prevention of the disease Is the only
thing that can be recommended.

The Old Hen as a Brooder.

First and last we will not be
able to find any better brooder
than the old hen. 1t is true that
she will now and then step on
Il chick, but she never has to
regulate her temperature. There Is
no danger of her brooder getting so
hot that the chicks will be roasted or
SO cold that they will be chilled.
Nature has, after all, adjusted things
better than man can do. The temper.
atrre of the body of the old hen regu-
lates itself and the thermometer is a
useless instrument in the enterprises
of which the hen is the center.
