When Hens Are Moulting.

One of the difficulties in poultry
raising is to get the hens to mott ear
ly, SO that they will be ready to lay
in the fall and winter, when eggs are
high. Left to themselves, hens will
take long time to mott, and will not
finish until cold weather sets in. They
will not then lay until early spring
and all the profits for the winter
months are lost. At the poultry in
stitute held in Denver by the Colora-
do Agricultural College, W. J. R. Viii
son, a poultry man of long experience
gave his method of controlling the
melting Of hens. AS soon as the hens
are through laying he turns them On al
falfa, feeding them dry bran only, in
addition. Under this treatment they
get thin. Then he feeds them a mixed
ration of grains and meat, giving a
light feed in the morning and all they
will eat at noon and night. Under
this treatment they finish melting
quickly, get new feathers and begin
laying in September. By October
they are in full laying condition and
make a profit through the fall and
winter.

Raising Chickens.

The greatest drawback to the chick
en- business is that there is not days
let-up in the steady routine of worn
from the time an egg is pipped until
the Ak closes the hens history. 1t is
natural after the pullets are feathered
out and weaned and the ROSTERS sep
arated from them to let up a little
in the care bestowed on them This
is a great mistake if winter eggs are
expected If there is one thing more
than another that the average poultry
man is liable to err in it is lack Of
fresh air In the coops at night. Slip
out some hot night about IL O'Clock
and you will perhaps hear the thump,
thump Of restless chickens crowdina
around against each other, fighting in
vain for cool, airy spot to sleep in
comfort. Or in the morning take a
Whit of the fetid, unwholesome air be
fore letting the chickens out, and you
will realize that night spent under
such conditions must prevent the
steady, healthy growth necessary fol-

Is liable to be worse with incubator
chickens, because they are raised in
larger f1ocks and the tendency is to
crowd them more after taking them
from the brooders

TO LIVE FOREVER.

Thomas Edison has perfected a stor-
age battery which he says will last
indefinitely and revolutionizs the pres
ent propelling power.
Prof. Munyon says 1t is only a ques-
ton Of time until remedy is discov-
cred that will supply the waste of the
human body, Sc that one may live on
almost Indefinitely, barring accidents.
This seems almost too good to be true,
but nothing seems to be impossible In
these days when we consider the fly
ing machine and the wireless tele-
graph.
Prof Munyon has certainly revolu
tionized the practice of medicine. He
does not believe in building hospitals
for consumptives. He says that con-
sumption can always be traced to
cold. Cure a cold and you prevent
consumption. His Cold and Cough
Remedy will break up almost any form
of cold in a few hours and positive
ly prevent Bronchitis and Pneumonia.
To convince the medical world and
people in general Of the truth of his
claims he has distributed millions OF
walls of the Cold Cure, absolutely free,
from the leading newspaper offices
throughout the country, and the cures
that have been reported from it's use
have been most astonishing. These lit
tie sugar pellets contain no opium,
morphine, cocaine or any harmful
drug. They seem to relieve the head.
throat and lungs almost Immediately.
In order that no one may be de-
prived of this remedy he has placed
it with all the druggists throughout
the United States for the small sum Of
% cents, or sent postpaid on receipt
of price, and with each bottle he
gives this guarantee: IF Munyon's
Cold and Cough Cure does not do all
that is claimed for it, I will refund
your money"
There are four advantages in taking
Munyon's Remedies. First, they are
absolutely harmless. Second, they are
pleasant to take. Third. they relieve
almost Immediately. Fourth, they cost
nothing unless they give satisfaction.

To Make the Hens Lay.

If the hens don't lay, turn them out
and let them dig and hunt in the
ground for food, is the advice of T. F.
McGrew, in the Country Gentleman.
Bury small grain where they will find
it when they dig. This will induce
them to hunt, and while thus employ
ed they will find bugs and worms that
will quicken the production of eggs 1t
is we'll to follow this plan as soon as
the spade will turn the ground, for 1t
adds vigor and strength to the hens
and insures strong, healthy chicks. The
lazy, idle hen is of no use but to sit
about, eat and grow fat. If she will
not work, she will not lay. If she will
not lay, her life should end, and her
fat carcass grace the table. You can
rest assured that the indolent hen is
a nonproducer; soon she becomes too
fat to lay and too tough to be eaten.

LONGEST TELEGRAPH CIRCUIT.
1t Is 1000 Miles Long, Extending from
London to Teheran, in Persia.


Persia and it's capital, Teheran, have
been very much before the public lately,
but probably few people are aware that
the news which has come through to
London has passed over the longest tele-
phone circuit in the world.
The distance between London and TIE
heran by wire is 1000 miles and the op-
orator in Teheran communicates direct
with the operator at the LONDON end,
automatic repeaters taking the place OF
operators at ten places along the circuit.
The first repeating station from Lon
don is at Lowestoft, where the wires
enter the North sea, beneath which they
run for 200 miles to Emden, Hanover,
where the second automatic repeater con-
tinues the message.
Thence it is flashed to Berlin, War
saw, Rouno, Odessa, Kertch, Sukhum,
Kalev, Tifis and Tauris, from each Of
which stations it is tnstantaneously for
warded without human intervention, the
telegraphist at Teheran. who receives
the message from Tauris, being the first
operator to handle it since it left Lon
don From Teheran the line then extends
to India, but nowhere else is there a
circuit so long as that between Teheran
and London--London Daily News.

When ants are seen running up and
down fruit trees an examination will
usually disclose the presence of plant
lice on the branches and leaves. AS
is well known to expert orchardists,
most plant lice are attended and cared
for by ants, and the presence of ants
may serve as an indication of infesta,
ton of plant lice. Under such circum.
stances the ants do no harm to the
plant except in the way of assisting
in the distribution of plant lice.
