SYMPTOMS AND CURE
How to Cure Vertigo and Apsplsxy in
PouItry-Symptoms Etc.
JUST ONE DOLLAR

Mrs. J. Hughes of Seymour,
Texas, describes a disease that has
proved fatal to her chickens:
They will go on their roost at
night apparently we'll and in the
morning will be found on the floor
stretched out with their necks
straight out, seeming to be dead,
but when Touched will flop around
like snake and yep, but can never
raise their heads. Others will
seem to go crazy and will have
their eyes half shut and not seem
to know anything, although they
try to feed, but seem not able to
pick it up. They have no vermin
on them and their combs are red.
They are taken i'll very suddenly
and all die very SOON
The trouble may be due to ex-
trelnely hot weather and has the
symptoms of apoplexy. Bleeding
is recommended for this disease.
Open with a sharp pointed pen
knife one of the largest veins TN
der the wing, cutting in a longitu-
dinal direction. By pressing with
the thumb on the vein above or
below the cut the blood will flow
freely and the fowl will be relieved.
When the pressure is removed the
wound will close.
In very warm weather the poul-
try house should be kept open, the
doors and windows, or, better still,
the chickens, should be encouraged
to roost outside.
In case any disease appears, thor.
ough fumigation, cleaning and
white washing are imperative, even
though no vermin are observed.
Chickens are subject to vertigo,
also in hot weather. This causes
them to run around in circles and
hutter about without control of
their muscles. 1t is the result of
undue determination of blood to
the head. Holding the head for a
short time under a stream of cold
water often operates as a cure.
All stimulating foods, such as corn
and meats, must be withheld for a
time.

A Qucstson of Vital Importance to Those
Planting New Orchards.

Some years ago in one of our farmers
Institutes, Rev Walden, a man who
has had wide experience in the fruit
business and who is considered among
the best authority in the state. said
that he would not advise any one in-
tending to plant an orchard to buy
trees from an irrigated nursery to be
set in an orchard that must be irrigat-
ed, but rather buy OF nursery where
trees are grown in natural climate
and transptanted into orchards whore
irrigation is used. Trses grown in a
natural climate, that is, in section
where rainfall is adequate to the de-
mands OF vegetation, do well, much
better than otherwise, when trans
planted into irrigated soil. This is a
matter of much importance and one
worthy of consideration.

OFFICIAL RETURNS
Show Republican Plurality of 40,0So on
The Congressional Ticket.

OLYMPIA, Dec. 20.-Ohicial canvass
OF the returns of the last g eneral cleo
tion announced today from the the Of
flee of Secretary OF State Nichols,
shows that a total OF ia, 747 votes were
counted throughout the state of Wash
ington. The republican plurality as
computed from the congressional vote
was 40, S66. In the general election of
1904 with the excitement of national
and state election, the total vote was
l45, l5l, and the highest republican
plurality 10, 442.
The first proposed amendment to the
state constitution lost out by 1896 votes,
while the second was defeated by 1927.
Whether the wide difference in the
vote for the two amendments resulted
from intelligent discretion on the part
of the voters, or resulted chiefly from
careless voting is difficult to say. At
any rate the greater fight was made
against the latter amendment which
proposed to grant to logging concerns
the right of eminent domain,
Congressman Francis w. Cushma n
again leads the ticket, his plurality
over the highest democratic congress
,ional nominee being 40,6S6. Judge
Wallace Mount had the highestof the
four nominees for tho supreme Judge,
his plurality being 39.650 and Judge
Milo A. Root lead in the two year term
by 1880.
The highest socialist vote was 500.
In 1904 the socialists polled lO,023 for
president in this state. However, they
claim that this is not fair COMPARE
son, as Debs received large percent
age of the votes OF the laboring men
who were not socialists The socialist
candidate for governor two years ago
received 1920, and in addition 1910
votes were cast for the socialist labor
candidate for governor, by which com
parison marked increase in the socl-
alist vote OF the state is shown.
The prohibitionists polled total
vote of 25S4, as against 3229 for presi-
dent in 1904.
The total vote for each candidate
and also the vote for the two amend
ments are as follows

HOW TO PRODUCE NOTING
Plans For Pluckine the Old Feathers and
Allow New Ones to Grow.

In order to accomplish early and
in the right season, pluck the old
feathers and allow new ones to
grow. The practice is not painful
and noting can be brought about
at any desired time by plucking
the old feathers and nature will
cause new feathers to take their
place. The plucking can take
place at any time when it is desir-
able to have a new coat of feathers
prior to egg producing time.
It is we'll known among poultry
men that should a feather be pluck
ed another will soon grow to take
its place. If feather is clipped
with shears, however, the stub will
not shed until Noting time, and a
new feather cannot come until the
old one has fallen out or has been
plucked.
Hens, like ducks, can be picked
without injury when the feathers
are ripe. To tell when this is,
catch a few and pull feathers from
the breast, and if they pull easily,
and are tapering, and dry at the
end of the quill, they are all right
to pick. On the other hand, if
blood comes from the skin where
you pulled the feathers, they are
green and mnst not be pulled.
We make Our gain in the time of
Noting by picking Our hens in
June or the fore part of July. We
catch the hens and pick their
bodies clean, after which add to
their feed some stew very rich in
oil and a little sulphur. The re-
suit is that in a few days the hens
will be literally covered with pin
feathers. These will be evenly dis
tributed over the whole body i'll
stead of being only one here and
there. If left to mott in the natur-
al way hens feathers must have
time to shrink, 50 that it does not
fill the socket in the skin and thus
become loosened and drop out.
Now the old feathers can be
pulled out by hand without hurting
the hen several weeks ahead of her
more leisurely time if left alone,
for bear this in mind, nature never
produces a new feather except
to take the place of an old one.
But as soon as this occurs the
pin feathers Immediately grows and
by pulling all of the old feathers
out at one time we have new ones
growing all over the body at the
same time, which shortens the
Noting season by just the length
of time which would have been re
quired for the old feathers to fall.
