because IL is more economical and
they are more easily handled The
average farmer keeps from 300 to 500
hens; If a house can be built in which
this number can be kept all the year
round. a great advantage will be Sc
cured 1t is easier to feed and water
a flock of 500 than to feed and water
four fiocks of so; it is easier to clean
and care for one house. even though
it be large, than sor four small houses
If 500 hens can be kept in one house
and produce yield of eggs during the
entire winter, a great advantage is
gained
Locality is an important factor
Poultry can be more closely housed
in California, Maryland and the Caro-
linas than in New York and states

poultry farm. in the pine district of
New Jersey. Last winter there were
81 days in which the hens were con-
fined to the building this winter
there has been more snow. and the
hens have been more confined than
before. In the building to be described,
500 laying hens and the proper num-
Der of males with each flock have
been housed all winter. The house is
placed in the cenEeg of a three-acre
field about the house there is a suf

trees to furnish shelter and shade for
all kinds of weather.
The house is 16 feet wide and 100

with muslin. AT each end of the
house toward the front are doors
through which the attendants pass in
caring for the fowls; this is shown by
the floor plan. The roosts are in the
rear of the building: in placing the
roosts, nine inches of space is pro
vided for each fowl. The dropping
board is about three feet from the
floor and open beneath. Self-feedins
hoppers, which are kept filled with
beef scrap, grit, charcoal and shell
are placed at each end of the building.
In the center is a large feed hopper,
which is kept filled with dry mash
Four round earthen crooks are used
for water. The nest boxes are in the
front between the glass windows and
below the curtain windows, and are
arranged so as to be out of the way,
and the shape of the top prevents the
hens roosting on them. The floors OF
the house are cement and are covered
over with cut straw as a litter.

Woman's suffrage is for the first time
a live issue, and this fact is really due to
the enthusiastic movement in England.
The militant suffragette has advanced
the cause more in one-half year than the
old-time polite methods have done in so
years.
Abstract principles do not appeal to
the average mind. Women have TO feel the
touch of injustice before becoming acting
suffragists.
The ordinary woman is too comfort
able to become interested, and the business
woman is too busy. But she will soon see

The following remedy is recon-
mended:
For trees seriously injured: Cut
the trees back to stubs of the main
limbs and apply barnyard manure or
commercial fertilizer, seven to eight
pounds per tree. in spring. The fol.
lowing formula is suggested for COM
mercial fertilizer: Phosphoric acid,
eight per cent; nitrogen, five per
cent; potash, two per cent. Give a
second application of thu ee or four
pounds per tree about the first of
June. Apply in a circle equal to the
spread of the limbs and rake. hoe, or
disk into the soil. Apply a thick
coat of whitewash by means of q
broom. the last week in March or
during the first two weeks in April.
Give a second application the second
week in July; and third about the
first of October. Add one-fourth pound
of table salt to each pail of whitewash
to make is stick longer.
For trees seemingly healthy and
slightly attacked or liable to attack:
Fertilize, cultivate and wldtewaxl.
In all cases carefully buru all trim
mings and dead wood and grub out
dead trees and burn so as TO limit
breeding grounds.

People of Marietta who suffer from
dyspepsia and other stomach troubles
are getting tired of taking preparations
containing pepsin, because pepsin
simply digests the food artiticially.

animal food !; it has no effect on starchy
food, such as potatoes, rice, bread, etc.

stomach and bowels, and tones up and
puts energy into the stomach walls, so
that they properly mix the food with
natural digestive juice Of the stomach.
Milo ma tablets quickly arouse the
stomach from its inaction and in few
days it is able to do its work easily and
without exertion. There will be no
more sour stomach, fermentation of
food, dizziness. sick headache, belch-
ing Of gas. or foul breath.
