Eqq Bound Hens.

The very first thing !. to do in the
treatment of egg bound hens is to
remove the cause. If the bird is too
fat its supply of fat forming grain ra-
ton should be cut off at once, and in
stead a liberal amount of feed rich in
protein should be given. If the grain
is corn change to wheat bran mixed to
thick mush with skim milk. This
should be fed once each day, Gener-
ally the evening is the best time Com
pei the birds to take a great deal of
exercise. Scatter little wheat in the
litter early in the morning and make
the birds scratch for it. Do not give
them very much. At noon give them
another feed Change the feed fire.

feeding no one grain more than three
times in succession.
AS a remedy give a teaspoonful of
epson salts in each gallon of drinking
water. If the egg is lodged near the
opening an injection of sweet oil will
many times cause it to pass out

HINTS FOR FARMERS
Worms In Hoas.

When doctoring the hogs for worms
1t is best to give each an individual
treatment For day or so before adj
ministering the medicine very little
feed should be given them. Then the
following as a drench should be given:
Spirits of turpentine, one tablespoon
full; raw linseed OIL three tablespoon
fuls. Repeat the dose each day for
three days The feed should be grad
ually increased till at the end of five
days the usual amount is fed If it is
difficult to drench the hog have an as
sistant to raise it up in a sitting posi-
ton until it rests upon its hams. As
it squeals pour the medicine well back
on the tongue through a heavy, long
necked bottle. A pint of I've from hard
wood ashes in the swill once each day
will also destroy worms in hogs.
Hogs should have a liberal amount
of hardwood ashes near them at all
times. 1t may seem that they do not
eat much of these, but there is enough
taken into the stomach and intestines
to hold in check the development of
worms. 1t is necessary that the ashes
be unleached, as it is the I've that de-
stroys the worms.

To Sharpen Old Files.

To know how dull files are very east
ly sharpened is worth to the farmer
many a round dollar. There are PEG
pie who throw away files thinking they
are worn out, but that is in many a
case large mistake. The dullness OF
files is produced by the finely ground
chips checking between the teeth OF
files. The secret of sharpening files is
the following: Take one part sulphuriC
acid and FIVE parts water. Mix both
well together, and in this solution put
dull files for twenty-four hours. Be
fore using files after they have been
sharpened in this way wash off the
files well with soap and when dry rub
in with kerosene oil. This process
will make old dull files like new. Be
cautious with this acid in handling, a.
it is not to make fun with.

Pumpkin Seed as Hoo Food.

We think it worse than waste of
time to remove the seeds, whether the
pumpkins are fed to cattle, sheep or
hogs. We have fed pumpkins, seeds
and all, to hogs for several years and
have had no bad results therefrom-in
fact we valEe pumpkin seeds highly
as food, for they contain considerable
amount of nutriment. OF course they
may be fed to excess, in which case
they act injuriously on the kidneys, but
where pumpkins are fed moderately no
Injurious results need be feared. Pump
kins should only form small part of
the hogs ration, so far as actual food
is concerned. The main reason for
feeding foods of this character is to
supply succulency to the ration, which
keeps the hogs digestive system in
good working order. Farmers Trib-

ladders Screaming men, women and
children crowded the fire escapes of
the tenements. Many of them sue
ceeded in climbing down, while many
others were rescued by the tiremen
The firemen, finding it impossible to
enter the hall went to the roofs of the
houses and attacked the flames in that
manner. In two hours the fire burned
itself out, while the flames had been
prevented from spreading beyond the
adjoining tenements, which were bad
ly damaged. In Turn hall was one OF
the finest gymnasiums in the country.
