SAY DR.. RAYMOND
RAISED THE DEAD
The Maui News says:

The Maui News says:
On the Claudine of last week bound
for Maui was Doctor j. H. Raymond
who recently returned to the practice
of medicine in Honolulu.
The steamer was over crowded and
the doctor had to content himself with
a mattress on the upper eek.
During the night the doctor was
awakened by one of the stewards
rushing along the deck. He was
sortly seen returning with the pur-
ser.
They went below and soon the pur-
ser called the Captain and they went
down into that part of the ship where
the steerage passengers are.
Captain Bennett soon returned and
stated to Doctor Raymond that he had
a dead man below an would like him
to ascertain the cause of death.
The doctor went below and found
the man apparently dead. The man, a
Porto Rican was cold, there was no
pulse whatever that could be distin-
guished, breathing had entirely ceas-
ed, the eyes were set and CLASSY, the
tongue was out and bloody saliva eX-
uding from the mouth.
Not only all others present but the
doctor himself believed the man to be
dead Instead of giving the man up,
however, the doctor said that he would
take one chance in ten thousand and
proceede to inject most powerful
stimulant of strychnine directly into
one of the veins.
The dose was an unusually large
one. 1t was fully two minutes before
the slightest twitching of the muscles
of the neck we're discernible and about
three minutes more before there was
any pulse that could be distinguished
In fifteen minutes however the man
was able to be carried above and sue
ceeded in keeping the rest of the pas
| sengers awake for the rest of the night
by his incessant chatter
When the steamer landed in Kahulu
the man was able to walk from the
deck as well as the rest of the passen'
gers. -
Doctor Raymond was for a number
of years the President of the Board o
Health and is acknowledged to be one
of the foremost physicians and sur
geons of the territory but even thos'
who know him best did not expect t.
hear of his resurrecting the dead.

BUSINESS FOR BOY
Poultry Raising Is Easy and Pro-
fitabIe If Care Exercised.
For Youth with Small Capital Chicken
industry Is Best Because Not De-
VeIoped to Full Capacity on
Average Farm.
(By K. K. MiIton.)

(By h. Il. MlitOn.1
The best business of all for a boy
with small capital is the poultry bust
ness, for on most farms the poultry
business is not developed to its full
capacity and parents will generally
gladly give over the care and profits
to the boys.
Purchase about six good hens all Of
one breed and then buy a fine rooster
of the same breed, and then build
them a house and yard and go into
the business.
For a house a piano box will do
very well the first year and al be
made to accommodate six hens and a
rooster very comfortably after the
cold winter weather is over.
After you get your poultry plant
established, keep close watch of your
! hens. Find which ones lay the most
eggs and from those hens ave eggs
for setting purposes. Then if none of
the hens r broody buy n and
move her in the night to some nest
in a box or a barrel, and after she has
become quieted down place the eggs
under her and get her started to set
ting.
In selecting the eggs to place under
her discard all those that are not nice
ly shaped and all hat are more than
a week old or that may have become
chilled.
When you set a hen it is best to fix
the box or barrel so that she can leave
the nest only when you let her out
to eat. She should be let out once a
day and be allowed to dust herself,
pick up a little grit and gravel and
have a good feeding of he~at-producing
food. Feed the settlers a little corn
when they come off the nest.
When they begin Matching o will
need some little coops, and it will be
very pleasant work to build these. l
like tight cOops for the ems and
chickens to prevent rats, WeaselS and
skunks from getting in and killing the
little chickens.
Leave a little hole at the bottom for
the air to come in and n at the top
for the impure air to pass out. A hole
an inch square is large enough and
over this tack a piece of wire screen
ing to keep out IN animal hat might
kill the chickens.
In the fall, when the chickens are
nicely grown and need more room,
buy another piano box from the
money you may get from selling some
of your surplus stock and remove the
side of the one o are using at pres
ent and fasten them together.
Use the removed sides to build a
shed. Put some windows in the
house. After the woodwork is all
completed, cover the whole house
with some good tar paper n you
will accommodate the stock that you
want to carry over for breeders an
other year., say. sixteen hens and a
rooster.

Nav Test Pardon.

The right of the governor to issue a
pardon conditional upon the good be-
havior of it's recipient will be subjected
to a legal test in event the Pike coun-
ty authorities succeed in capturing Bud
Wall, the celebrated e~X-convict, who
defied the entire police force of Nc
Comb City a few nights since, keeping
at bay a squad of bluecoats who were
attempting to raid his barber shop and
search it for contraband liquor. Bud
Wall was pardoned by Gov. Noel only a
few weeks ago. The pardon contained
the condition that Wall must faithfully
observe all of the avs of the State,
and neither engage in the sale of or
drink intoxicating liquors. According
to reports from Pike county, the cele-
brated e%x-convict had hardly reached
his old stamping grounds hen he open
ed up a barber shop and was doing a
fl%ourishing business up to the time his
place was raided by the McComb police.

GENERAL FARM NOTES,

Feed the stock at regularly appoint.
ed hours.
1t is poor economy to get a cheap
ram. Get the best you can.
A kicking COW is not so bad as q
kicking man in the dairy herd.
Charcoal in granulated form should
always be kept before poultry of all
ages.
Never feed YOU sneep musty hay
or rotten grain. Give them plenty of
good, sound, wholesome food.
A popularity Of clover is that we
may take off a crop and leave the
land richer than it was before.
Book knowledge of farming is in
d~ispensable, but sc is actual practice.
One will not work we'll without the
other.
No two COWS can be fed alike. Each
must be studied separately. Increase
the protein in the ration and watch
the milk flow.
The hired man who values his serv-
ices highly is generally cheaper in
the long run than the man who allows
his employer to fix his wages.
Bacteria in milk will not increase in
it if it is kept at a temperature of 40
degrees, but at 65 degrees the in
crease is at the observation-disclosures.
This is the time of year when we
are growing about the bad condi-
tions of the roads, but we will prob
ably be too busy to use a road drag
when the opportunity comes.
Some people seem to think that the
apple growing is just a side issue"
Perhaps it is, but it's a pretty big me.
In one season this country If ours has
been known to produce 10000 barrels
IT apples.

have little or no leaf stalk and do not
taper from the stem end, but expand
directly from the stalk.
When the plants are ready to flow
er, all side shoots and all flowers
that do not rise from the central stalk
should be removed, permitting only
the early central flower clusters to
produce seed. Flowers growing from
the side shoots do not produce as
strong seeds as do central shoots.
By permitting the flowers to appear
here and there over the field, they
are very apt to crOss-fertilize the
blooms of plants intended for seed,
which is disastrous when one is en-
d~eavoring to obtain pure seed. The
grower should top his crop long be-
fore the blossoms appear.
The practice of removing the leaves
from the plants intended for seed at
the time of harvesting the crop is
quite prevalent. Needless to say, it
is a decidedly bad practice, and
should not be done under any con-
sideration. If they are removed the
seed will be weakened and smaller.
for the leaves are necessary for the
full developmnt of the seed.
The illustration shows the method
of saving seed under bag to prevent
crossing.

PLYMOUTH ROCK IDEAL FOWL
Has Many Good Qualities, Both for
Its Laying Qualities and Its Meat
for the Table.

The breed of chickens one keeps is
a matter of personal choice, for n
of the standard breeds we'll cared for
will return good profits. Among the
American breeds, usually termed gen
eral purpose fowls, the barred Ply
mouth rocks are very popular.
The barred Plymouth rock chicken
has many good qualities for making
it an ideal farm fowl. 1t is a fairly
good layer and the eggs are large and
of a beautiful light brown color. Indi-
vidual members of this breed, under
expert care at the Maine experiment
station, have beat the worlds record
for egg laying. The hens are excel
lent sitters and good mothers. Young
barred Plymouth rock chicks develop

Government Fighting Boil WeeviI.

The government is assisting the
farmers of the south in their fight
against the boil weevil. After extern
sive studies and field experiments they
outline the following practical meth
DDS of controlling the pest:
UprOoting and burning plants in the
fall.
Clearing hedge rows, fences and
buildings thoroughly.
PlOw the land in the fall and work
during the winter to obtain an early
crop.
Provide wide rows. Check rowing
is an excellent practice.
Plant early maturing varieties, fer
tilize where necessary to obtain early
crops.
When possible pick the first appear
ing weevils and the first infected
squares.
