A Different Spelling of turner"


Apropos to this matter of sim.
plihed spelling, it was the topic OF
conversation at q literary gathering
in New York the other evening.
There was serious and emphatic dis
cussion for some time when at last
one of the company very solemnly
inquired if any one present could
pronounce the word "phthologn-
yrrh." There was much question
ing, much repetition of the con-
glomerate mass of letters; then it it.
was given up. "Simple enough"
declared the propounder Of the puz-
zle. at spells turner Don't you
see2 Phth is pronounced t, as in
phthisic; olo is pronounced ur, as in
colonel; gn is pronounced II, as in
gnat, and yrrh is pronounced er, as
in myrrh." Amid shouts of laugh
ter that word which nobody could
pronounce was finally pronounced
by all to be the very best argument
Of the evening in favor of simpll-
fed spelling.-New York Times.

And she felt
Of her belt

Her walk was as free as a sprln-

And many a rubberneck turned

AS she felt
Of her belt
At the back.
She wondered if all the contrap-

Were fastened just rlght-'twas

So she felt
OF her belt

She had on a skirt that was rust

And didn't quite know what the

So she felt

She fdgeted around while the

She fun bled about while the first
hymn was read
Oh she felt
Of her belt
At the back.
Jack told her one night that he
loved her like mad;
Aud she felt
For her belt

have better and larger crops on the
land now than we did then.
Our foreman has had to hire the
extra help, pay them, and work them,
and our salesman has had to look
after the sale of all the vegetables,
make statement of each days sales
and turn in bills or vouchers for all
money paid out, so his cash would
balance.
The increased responsibility was
hard for them at first, but they are
working hard to make the farm pay
and thus increase their profits Please
remember, that while the writer has
lived on the farm the most of the
past year, he has not been able to do
a single days work. All he could
find time to do was to walk over the
place several times a week and adj
wise with the foreman at night The
men made the crop and sold it and
turned over the money.
It was quite amusing to hear our
negro foreman complaining about the

work. He was in the field by sum
rise himself and he wanted them to
be there TOO, and follow his lead and
when they did this, they did days
work, all right.
Now, I don't claim to have solved
the labor problem by any means, but
am rather inclined to think that we
have gotten more work done for the
number of hands employed than any
one in our locality, and that under
the circumstances the money [ have
paid out in proft-sharing has been
good investment SO far How it will
work out in future remains to be
seen. The men are we'll pleased, how

is increasing. Our foreman is es-

that chickens could eat maggots and
not have limber-neck
One. spring a large drove OF tur
keys, broiling size, found carcass
that was living mass Of maggots,
and promptly devoured their fill. I
could do nothing According to theory
they should have all died within
few hours, in violent agony, but every
one of them lived to share in the
Thanksgiving festivities. [ could re-
hearse dozens of instances where
fowls have eaten maggots with i'm
punity and yet lived on. But I never
yet saw chicken with run down con-
stitution, whether from setting, close
confinement or improper feeding, par
take Of a meal Of maggots without
having limber-neck; and nine cases
out Of ten it would have had timber
neck without the maggots.
So much then for the maggots and
limber-neck; but in my experience
they have nothing to do with it.
Fowls in a normal condition will not
have limber-neck. Our first big poul-
try loss was due to their run down"
condition from lack of sufficient food
material during July and August, the
most critical months Of the year, be-
cause fowls then should be storing
away surplus strength for moulting.
A corn ration at night, with free
range was not sufficient stimulus dur
ing a dry summer to combat the eff
fects Of a marshy stream, full Of stag
nant pools, which they made their
every day resort. We have eliminated
limber-neck from our hocks, we be-
lieve, by judicious feeding.
A great many have disagreed with
me in my opinion Of improper food
condition causing linber-neck They
would Immediately exc1aim: eyes,
but my chickens had all they could
eat and were the latest things you
ever saw evidently believing that
that was the one condition to be de-
sired. Neither growing stock nor
laying stock are in normal condi-
ton when they are ''as fat as they
can be- They are then ready for
two things-for market and for dis
ease.
Whenever you choose to experiment
rather than use the ''hatchet cure"
on fowls thus affected, give one grain
calon1el every three or four hours
until four grains are taken. At the
same time, begin with turpentine.
Give six to eight drops in capsule
three times day Don't depend upon
fowls swallowing medicine, for it will
do no such thing. If it is sufficiently
alive to swallow it will fling medicine
or any thing else out of it's mouth.
Hold the head back, and mouth open,
drop the pill Or capsule past the
wind-pipe, or push it past with finger
or stick, pour few drops of water
into its throat as you would pour
water into bottle, and then you may
be sure your fowls have taken the
medicine doseed out for them. To eff
feet a cure, doctor chickens with the
same promptness and accuracy you
