POULTRY NOTES,

Breed up the flock and get uniform
birds.
Shape makes the breed-color the
variety.
Do not try to keep a larger flock
than you can take care of.
Keep dampness out of the poultry
house; that will help keep out dis.
ease.
The habit some hens have of laying
every day is not shared by all. If you
hatch eggs from these everyday lay.
ers you will soon find you have no
drOnes in the flock.
In running your incubator follow
each and every instruction given by
the manufacturers to the letter. They
want to see you succeed and are not
imposing tasks they consider need
less.

CLIMATE IS IDEAL
GREAT WEALTH ACQUIRED IN
GROWING GRAIN.

Writing from Saskatoon. Saskatche
"an' Canada, w. H. Ellwanger, who
was formerly a resident Of Green
mountain, Iowa, says: "The climate
IN summer Is ideal for growing grain
Long, clear days of sunshine. no had
storms. We never need to guard
against cyclones; never saw a better
climate In my life. We made mora
money during the season of 1906 than
any previous five years in central

state. But Mr.. Ellwanger was a. resi-.

hundreds Of letters all filled with
words OF praise, recounting success in
western Canada there has been one

IN MANY LINES OF BUSINESS.
Witness Evidently Was Man Of Un'
usual Qualifications.

s. T. Jocelyn of Wichita was court
stenographer for Judge Pancoast OF
Oklahoma for several years. One time
a case was being tried before Judge
Pancoast and they were endeavoring
to find out through a witness whether
there had been any liquor sold.
What is your business?" asked the
lawyer. "My business?" repeated the
witness laconically. "Oh, l have lots
of business" answer the question"
said the lawyer. What is your bust.

Neglected Fowls.

1t is seldom that neglected fowls
are profitable. A great many people
have conceived the idea that they can
start flock and let it alone and that
the results will be profits day by day.
AS we'll might farmer plant field
to anything and expect it to produce a
good crop without caring for it. The
weeds would soon grow up and choke
the economic plants. In the poultry
house We do not have weeds, but we
have lice, mites. rats. cats, hawks,
diseases of many kinds and thieves
These all correspond to the weeds
that choke the crop in the field They
make it impossible for the lazy person
to succeed.

During the five years preceding
19O4-'O5 the total acreage annually
under indigo cultivation in India was
755,900. In 1905-'O6 this area had
decreased to 33O,4O0 acres, or a fall.

India, it is said that natural indigo

What's a Widower?

Is widower married or a single
man?
This question continually crops up
and it is continually being answered
both ways. Certainly widower is
married-he is not a bachelor. That
is one answer. Certainly, on the other
hand, no matter what the man once
was, he is single now. That is the
other answer. Thus in all match
games of single against married men

cricket-the poor widower is tossed

HOW TO KNOW PURE PAINT.
A Way in Which It May Be Identified
Before Using.

After building has been painted
long enough for a weather test, it is
easy to tell if the paint used was made
of pure White Lead or not. But such
telated knowledge comes like locking
the barn after the colt is stolen.
What one wants is test that will
tell the quality of the paint before it
and the labor of putting it on are
paid for.
Nature has provided way in which
genuine White Lead may be positive
ly distinguished from adulterated or
fake White Lead before you spend a
cent on your painting.
Pure White Lead is made from me-
tallic lead, and, under intense heat,
such as is produced by a blow-pipe,
pure White Lead will resolveitself back
into metallic lead. If, however, it is
not genuine White Lead, or if it con-
tains the slightest trace of adultera-
ton, the change will not take place.
Therefore the "blow-pipe' test is an
absolute and final one.
The National Lead Company are
urging everyone interested in painting
to make this test Of paint before using
1t, and they guarantee that the pure
White Lead sold under their Dutch
Boy Painter" trademark will always
prove absolutely pure under the blow.
pipe or any other test. To make it
easy for you to perform the expert
ment they will send you free upon re-
quest a blow-pipe and everything nee
essary for you to make the test, to-
gether with a valuable booklet on
paint. Address, National Lead Com.
