Seasonable Poultry Hints.

There is still hope for the person
who has few chickens and that
is the fact that biddy is not in any
way interested in the financial sit
uation but is still at the old stand
doing business as usual. 1t looks
as if it was going to pay us pretty
well to keep her in condition SO
she will continue SO all winter.
AS a rule the chicken house is
used as sort of storehouse and
as result we find rubbish of all
sorts stored in there until there is
scarcely any room left for the
chickens. Just take a day off and
put all of this stuff outside and
see for once what nice place you
have for them if it was only kept
clean. They will pay you well for
all of your trouble.
You will find the best results
are gotten by allowing the chick
ems to run ouside as much as they
will. 1t is a mistake to keep them
shut up one day and allow them to
run the next unless the weather is
particularly bad ON the one day.
Always have the hen house as
comfortable as possible and you
will find that they will go there if
they do not want to be outside.
The idea of keeping them shut up
is the cause of great deal of this
sickness during the winter
You had better kill the bird that
is going around with its eyes
swelled shut right now, OF you will
have the others that way before
long.
Are you keeping the copperas in
the drinking water as you should ?
Remember most of the diseases
are spread there,
Have you arranged to feed green
cut bone this winter? 1t is next
to impossible to get any great
number of eggs without it during
the cold weather. You will find
that it is one of the cheapest foods
that you can get. The fact that
you have to buy cutter should
not keep you from doing it. Re-
member that good bone cutter
will last as long as you will have
occasion to use one, and then be a
good machine.

Few Here Know This.

When an eminent authority an
nounced in the Scranton (Pa.)
Times that he had found a new
way to treat that dread American
disease, rheumatism, with Just
common, everyday drugs found in
any drug store, the physicians
were slow indeed to attach much
importance to his claims. This
was only a few months ago. 10
day nearly every newspaper in the
country. even the metropolitan
dailies. is announcing it and the
splendid results achieved. 1t is
SO simple that anyone can prepare
it at home at small cost. 1t is put
up as follows: Get from any good
prescription pharmacy Fluid Ex-
tract Dandelion one half ounce;
Compound Kargon, one ounce;
Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla,
three ounces. Mix by shaking in
bottle and take in teaspoonful
doses after each meal and at bed
time. These are all simple in
gradients, making an absolutely
harmless home remedy at little
expense.
Rheumatism, as everyone knows,
is symptom of deranged kidneys.
1t is condition produced by the
failure of the kidneys to properly
filter or strain from the blood the
uric acid and other matter which,
if not eradicated, either in the
urine or through the skin pores,
remains in the blood. dec omposes
and forms about the joints and
muscles, causing the untold suffer
ing and deformity of rheumatism.
This prescription is said to be a
splendid healing, cleansing and
invigorating tonic to the kidneys,
and gives almost immediate relief
in all forms of bladder and urinary
troubles and backache. He also
warns people in IA leading New
York paper against the indiscrim-
mate use of many patent medi-
cines.

1t Is an old saying that ''the
world loves a lover" but it surely
applies in broader sense than to
the one particular love. The man
wko loves his home, his family, his
country and his fellow man. That's
the sort of lover the world loves
and he is worthy of it too. A
man should not let this love of
country spread out too thin, and
cover too much country. He wants
to bunch it, apply it to the country
that he trods over every day. His
loyalty he wants to apply in the
same way to the immediate country
he lives in. There are a lot of fell
lows who would consider it dis
loyalty of the rankest kind to
abuse the United States, yet they
can say nothing too mean of their
own immediate part of the United
States. Don't spread your loyalty
to your country over too much
territory.
