A writer in American Poultry Advo-
cate, in answering the inquiry of a cor
respondent whose flock Is suffering
from acute catarrh, very sapiently OBJ
serves: Unless you handle the affected
birds carefully acute catarrh will run
into the roup stage. l have met many
cases Of this character caused by too
little ventilation at night. Close, hot,
stuffy houses and coops are behind
many Of these cases. The gospel Of
fresh air is doing much to prevent ca
tarrh diseases in our birds. Increase
the amount Of air supplied your birds.
Do this by removing understanding
openings If needed-and cover with
wire netting to keep out vermin. Get
the chicks into large coops with wire
front. Let all birds out of the houses
In the early morning so that they may
pass more time in the pure outdoor air.
Add one-hundredth of a grain Of arse
mite Of anthony to the days drinking
water Of every five birds and then add
just a film Of kerosene oil to each yes
sci. This is medicine enough.

How to Confine Leghorns.

The usual method of keeping Leg
horns Is to confine them in yards hav-
ing fences about six feet high and with
fly over especially II there Is no post
top above the wire for the birds to
alight upon. Fowls almost never fly
directly over fence, but fly up on to
the top of 1t and then fly down. TAX
Ing advantage of this habit, 1t Is easy
to stretch a couple of strands of wire
above the fence posts with slim stakes
to support them. When a bird flies up
to light on the post top the wire pre-
vents, and the attempt is rarely re-
peated.

Caponi.inr nm Old Practice.

r. T. VIII, writing to Western Poul-
try Journal. says: l notice numerous
articles in the poultry journals these
days explaining what "capons" are and
the methods of procedure in the OPP
Grafton of caponizing. That caponizing
is not recent discovery is deduced
from the fact that Shakespeare causes
Hamlet to mention capons in a con-
versation with the king, scene 2, act
3. so that ''capons" were known in the
sixteen century and perhaps earlier

Feeding For Size.

Some may be interested In knowing
how we feed for size. says an old
breeder. We induce exercise, but feed
plentifully and make the diet as varied
as possible. Milk, meat, grain and
green food form the main basis OF our
feeding Skinned milk at cents per
gallon is n cheap food, and we also use
quantities of thick sour milk. Prac
tically no corn Is fed our young stock
until six months old. Bran and mid
dlings are a daily portion of the diet
and are kept before the chicks at oil
times In a dry state, but sometimes we
moisten this mixture for change.
Have found whole oats soaked in skim
milk a great growth producer, but they
should not be fed until chicks reach
the age of six weeks. Charcoal. grit
and cool water are not forgotten

medicine will absorb the taste very

For sore mouth try wash Of one
teaspoonful of peroxide in half glass

After cutting a corn peroxide should
always be applied to prevent any pos

Gouty persons should avoid eating
sweet food, but the practice Of eating
a dozen walnuts day is recommended
by physicians.
A cup of hot water will relieve a
sick stomach, and for those who can
not take it plain try little lemon
juice, lump OF sugar or a pinch Of
salt

The plain, quiet. apparently unat.
tractive girl should he taught to make
the most of herself and who can teach
her this so well as her mother? If
your daughter is growing up too quiet
and seems never to have anything to
say, exert yourself to draw her out
Lead her into general conversation at
every opportunity. Let her feel that
her thought and opinion about differ
emf matters are OF some weight and
Importance. Do not let her sink into
that state Of mind which is content to
let other people take the burden Of con-
versation while she sits by in appar-
emily stupid silence. says Home Chat.
1t is habit which will grow upon her
and which will only become the more
deeply fixed If referred to in any way.
Some day her chances of happy and
useful life may be ruined by it.

Green Cut Bone the Cheapest
Poultry Food.

The problem of finding a. cheap poul-
try food that will increase egg-produc-
ton during the winter when eggs are
high has been solved by those farmers
who purchase Green Cut Bone for their
poultry. C. S. Page of Hyde Park, VT,
grinds many thousand pounds annually
of this article and is this year selling it
for $3.50 per barrel of 200 pounds freight
prepaid to buyers railroad station.
There is now no necessity for going
without this staple Poultry Food. If
you cannot use barrel yourself, get
some of your neighbors to Join in with
you. You will find it valuable egg
producer.

THE BREEDING PEN.
On Experts Views ms TO the QuaIitie,
TO lie Perpctuated.

On Experts Views as to the Qualities
TO lie Perpctuated.
In the making up of the breeding pen
there are a number of very important
factors to be dealt with if success is to
be expected, and will point out
few of the more important ones to be
dealt with, says Rev. C. E. Petersen in
American Poultry Advocate.
No birds should be used which are
not sexually mature, healthy and in
full vigor, as only from healthy and
mature stock can a healthy progeny
be expected.
II immature birds are used the prog
eny will suffer, which Is proved year
ly by the markedly higher death rate
among the chicks hatched from such
immature stock birds.
Stock of advanced age should not be
used either. as, for reasons that are
obvious to the observer no good results
can be expected.
There Is no need for me to explain
that the chicks are In everything es-
sential the creatures of their parents
and OF their ancestors: that 1t Is on the
whole predestined by the nature Of the
germs from the combination of which
the chicks emanate what they are to
be.
This Is good and sufficient reason
why the utmost care should be used in
the selection Of breeding stock and in
formation as far as Is possible obtain
ed as to the ancestry of the birds to be
used In the breeding yard for by no
means everything that Is given us Is
good. The parental germs themselves
may. to begin with, be possessed of in
herited deficiencies, or they may have
suffered by injuries which affected the
parental body, or they may have been
imperfect because Of the immature or
advanced age of the parents.
All kinds Of malformations are he
reditary and should under no circum-
stances be permitted in the breeding
pen. however slight. as the tendency in
every Instance IL to exaggerate these
deformlties
I said all kinds. whether inherited or
acquired, as the last kind will in time
become hereditary. and even II In 9TH
q respects the bird should be desirable
leave II out Of all consideration for
breeding purposes. as the result in a
very few generations will prove disas-
trous.
Equally unsuitable for procreation
arc specimens whose physical develop
nent b not complete or whose sexual
character Is smperfectly marked.
Remember that potency Is just as
much hereditary as any other faculty
and Is indeed Of the greatest impor-
lance. as this particular faculty is the
rejuvenator OF our strain.
And wherever a bird proves himself
strong In this particular and gives ev-
idence Of continued strong potency for
several generations such a bird should
be treasured and his strong potential
ity bred into the strain.

Hydrogen peroxide is usually associ-
ated with golden hair of a suspicious
hue, but it really is most useful
household drug AS it is best known,
1t Is an excellent and harmless bleach,
but besides this it is an excellent dis

it In a mouth wash. but it is even so.

Feeding Green Cut Bone Pays.

Mr.. A. F. Hunter, who is one of the

of that paper; Feeding fresh cut bone

has proved a decidedly profitable thing,
The bones are rich in animal matter.
and contain lime of which the egg shells
are made, and hens fed on fresh cut bone
will lay larger number of eggs than if
fed no bone. Not only will they lay a
larger number of eggs, but the eggs will
be stronger-bodied, will be better eggs,
and if incubated will have better and
stronger chicks" o. s. Page, of Hyde

Frank R. Armstrong ParaIyzed.

News reached this city yesterday
that Mr.. Frank r. Armstrong suffered
a severe stroke of paralysis in his
home at Pineville, KY, Sunday morn
ing. Mr.. Armstrong has for some
time been assisting his son-in-law. Mr..
Robert Parks, in conducting a hotel at
Pineville. He went to his room Satur-
dayn light in apparent good health and
was found on the floor Saturday NOM
ing, where he fell before retiring.
The hotel being heated by steam per-
haps kept him from dying during the
night.
MIR. Armstrong is an ex-May9r of
Paris and ex-Sheriff of Bourbon county
and was one of the most popular men
who ever lived in the county. The
deepest sympathy and regret is express
ed on all sides, with the wish of re-
covery.

one and there is little hope for MIN.

VIM. McCray Seriously Hurt.

Mr.. VIM. McCray, the welI-known
North Middletown tobacco buyer, was
seriously hurt on last Friday evening
by being thrown from his buggy. Mr..
.McCray was returning home from the
Louisville tobacco market, and was
driving I very spirited horse. When
near Mr.. Henry Gaitskill's residence
on Winchester pike the bit broke and
the horse ran away, throwing Mr.. Cray
violently against a picket fence, COM
pletely scalping him, cutting a cash
about seven inches long across his
forehead and tearing the scalp off clear
to the back Of his neck. After the ac-
cident Mr.. McCray walked to Mr..
GaitskiH's residence about 400 yards
away, and DIR. GiIkey was called from
North Middletown and DIR. Daugherty
from Paris. who were soon on the
scene. and dressed his wounds.

Mr.: McCray was still in a critical con-
Sdition, but was doing as we'll as could

Carlisle. As Seen By The County
Judge OF Nicholas County. s

The Carlisle Democrat Is edited and
published by N. H. McNew. Judge of
Nicholas county. In its issue Of last
Saturday, the following item appeared:
"Our colored suburb, Henrvyille, is
still at the headquarters of Bitter
Greek whisky still flows there; drunk
'en brawlS and fights among men and
women are frequent. Sometimes these
war scenes end fatally. Sunday night
just after II o'clock, we learn gene
raj battle took place. 1t seems that
over the head with beer bottle. Her
two brothers being on the scene. Open
ed fire on Bill and shot him. one ball

through the leg.
"This blended whisky is made of
several kinds of mixed poisoned medi-
cines, and when fellow gets full of it,
he may attepmt to do most anything
he would not do if sober. 1t quickly
sends bullets, bowie knives and razors
flying through the air, and the courts
and the Jail and probably the peniten-
tiary do the rest"
This is fair illustration of the eff
fects of local option in every city where
it has been tried. Is there any sensible
person who prefers, by voting for local
option, to substitute such conditions for
those now prevailing in Paris, where
the sale of liquor is made under license?
The Bourbon news., 1907-03-12

used as places were liquor was the
chief article dealt in. In all legitimate
lines business is claimed by those con-
Quoting it. as good as ever, and our
merchants seem to be satisfied. it may
be and doubtless is, true, that our
streets are not as crowded with people
as they once were, but time alone can
tell whether this is for the better or
worse
''Ou people voted against liquor
after a full and free discussion of the
subject and seem to be satisfied to
abide the results. -
That Carlisle is the dead town
claimed by the writer, we deny, not
withsUanding some think so. Our mer-
chants continue to do business, our
Banks.have plenty of money on deposit.
and we move right along happy and
contented people, sober if not surfiet-
ed.
eff Paris wants liquor she should
vote fer it and not undertake to show
that her neighbors are poor and dis
tressed. Carlisle is all right. "
The Nicholas Advocate, edited by
John w. Powling, has an editorial
similar in tone to that of the Mercury.
This editor attempts to explain by say
ing that half of the vacant rooms are
not desirable for business purposes be-
fore local option was adopted.
AS conditions show for themselves,
it is of comparatively little Importance
as to who the people of Paris believe,
but it would appear that the state
ments in the Bourbon News, supported
as they are by the editorials in the Car
Isle papers should be preferred to the
hysterical utterances of the advocates
of local option who are unwilling to adj
NIT that the law has proved q failure,
or that the interests of their town have
suffered. 1t is again asserted that
there are nineteen vacant business
houses in Carlisle today and that since
the adoption of local option, rents have
decreased the tax rate increased, and
the prosecutions for offenses against
the liquor laws have nearly doubled.
The question is again asked of the
people of Paris if local option has had
such an effect OIL Carlisle, why should
any sensible person vote for its adop-
ton here?
