POULTRY PlCkINGS.

Birds cannot tell their feelings,
hence we must Judge and prescribe
from symptoms alone.
The causes of malignant colds are
filth, dampness, drafts, neglect and
improper food.
Ducks seldom become broody;
geese are apt to become broody after
laying the first litter.
Eggs from yearling ducks hatch
well, but geese must be about three
years old to show strong fertility.
When fowl sneezes, waters slight.
ly at eyes and nostrils and dumps 1t
has a common cold, not regarded as a
germ disease.
The pullets hatched in March will
make good layers for the late fall.
and then they can be handled SO they
will lay all winter.
Be sure conditions are favorable,
then apply the hatchet to the hen
that persists in striking every time
the price of eggs advances.
Don't depend on any secret system
Of breeding layers. If you don't know
your flock well enough to select the
layers to breed from your case is
hopeless.

RHEUMATISM RECIPE
PREPARE SIMPLE HOMEMADE
MIXTURE YOURSELF.
Buy the Ingredients from Any DRUG
gist In Your Town and Shake
Them In Bottle to
Mix This.

A well-known authority on Rheu.
matism gives the readers of a large
New York daily paper the following
valuable, yet simple and harmless
prescription, which any one can easily
prepare at home:
Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half
ounce; compound Kargon, one ounce;
Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three
ounces.
Mix by shaking well in bottle, and
take teaspoonful after each meal
and at bedtime.
He states that the ingredients can
be obtained from any good prescrip-
tion pharmacy at small cost, and, be-
Ing vegetable extraction, are harm
less to take.
This pleasant mixture, II taken reg
ularly for few days, is said to over
come almost any case Of Rheumatism.
The pain and swelling, IL any, dimin-
ishes with each dose, until permanent
results are obtained, and without in
juring the stomach. While there are
many so-called Rheumatism remedies,
patent medicines, ETC., some Of which
do give relief, few really give perma-
nent results, and the above will, no
doubt. be greatly appreciated by many
sufferers here at this time.
Inquiry at the drug stores Of even
the small towns elicits the information
that these drugs are harmless and can
be bought separately, or the druggists
will mix the prescription II asked to.

hinges on inside to hang the door.
Get some small spring wire and turn
some springs, a, on half inch spin
die, 2h or three inches long. Fasten
one end to the door, the other to side,
SO that when the door is pushed in
the spring will be strong enough to
pull 1t back shut.
Fasten with two short nails or
screws piece Of rat spring, b, like
those used In corsets at the opposite
side Of door on the floor of nest box.
Raise this spring and have 1t just
long enough to prop the door two
thirds open. Have little notch cut
in door to hold 1t up. When the hen
pushes her way into the nest the door
will relieve this spring and when the
hen steps into nest compartment the
door closes. Put on a check SO the
door will not swing out. Hinge a
cover on top of other end of box to
gather the eggs and take the hen out.
Don't make these boxes tight but
leave plenty of change Of air. Look
at them every hour when the hens
are busy.

Willing Hands.

There Is good story going the
rounds in Pittsburg of young man,
formerly a stock-broker, who dropped
many thousands in speculation during
the early spring.
One night, shortly after going to
bed, the Pittsburger was awakened by
strange signs. At his first motion to
jump up he was greeted by hoarse
voice. If you stir, you're a dead
