RASH ALL OVER BABY's BODY
Itched So He Could Not Sleep

ION July 81. 1909, we left Boston for
a trip to England and Ireland. taking
baby with us. After being In Ireland
a few days a nasty rash came out all
over his body. We took him to a doc
tor who gave us. medicine for him.
The trouble started in the form Of a
rash and was all over baby's body:
head and face, at different times. 1t
irritated. and he would scratch 1t with
all his might. The consequence was
It developed into sores, and we were
afraid it would leave nasty scars on
his face.
When we reached England we took
baby to another doctor. who said his
condition was due to change of food
and climate, and gave more medicine.
The rash got no better, and it used to
itch and burn at night so bad that the
child could not sleep. He was COM
pletely covered with 1t at different
times. 1t was at this time that my
mother advised us to try Cuticura
Soap and Ointment. After using Cuti-
cura Soap and Cutlcura Ointment for
about nine months the places disap-
peared. There are not any scars, or
other kind Of Disagreement, and baby
is completely cured by the Cuticura

Do not forget that grits and oyster

A broiler should have a good. plump

Sour food should never be allowed

Sterile Eohs.

A common cause Of sterile eggs is
that the hens or the male bird. or both.
are in too fat a condition. At the be-
ginning Of the breeding season the
stock birds are often fat, and In such a
condition they are unlikely to make
satisfactory breeders. Fat hens not
only produce a large percentage Of In
fertile eggs, but they are less prolific
than are those Of a lean. hard condi-
ton. Fat male birds, too, are generally
lethargic and lazy, with the result that
they do not perform their work In q
satisfactory manner

Dressed geese are largely in demand
in the cities during the fall months.
but choice birds will bring good prices
the entire year. Do not offer old
stock, however, as they are not desired
by the purchasers and are more suit
able to their owners a. breeders.
There is no advantage In selling Oh
the old stock OF geese. as they live
many years, and the older birds are
generally best for breeding purposes.
and the young ones bring better prices
in the market
Do not proceed to fatten the geese
suddenly. but confine gradually. Allow
several In a small yard. which should
be kept clean and somewhat darkened.
Corn meal and milk. with some beef
scraps, wheat and brewers grains fat
ten well.
A mash composed Of fourparts corn
meal. one part wheat bran. one part
middlings and one part beef scraps Is
a very good ration. Wet this Just
enough to have 1t In a dry. crumbly
state. and feed all they will eat up
clean three times a day.
Do not give them green food while
fattening. They should be kept away
from bathing water during this period.
but a plenty Of water for drinking pur.
poses should be kept in their pen. AL
so keep a good supply Of grit before
them. Fast for twenty.four hours be-
fore killing.
Goslings may be put up to fatten
when from s to 10 weeks old. After
they are twelve weeks old they will
begin to shed ana will fatten readily
then until the end Of the season. Pre-
vious to being confined they should
have a good range where grass is plen-
tiful. and 1t will then require but a few
days to get them ready for killing.

Gull out Now.

-|
II you have not already done so. It is
time now to carefully Gull your adult
breeding stock. Females which you
intend to keep owe another winter
should be given open-air quarters
with q good sized, well-shaded. green
grass range. Do not allow any male
birds to run with them. They need a
rest. Choose only the best year-old.
and in some Eases two-year-old stock
that is in good order, sound, healthy
and vigorous. Male birds which you In
tend to keep over. you should give
small colony coops and run on grass
land. Do not hold over any males un-
less you are sure that you wish to
breed them another season. All adult
stock which is culled out and which
you do not intend to keep should be
sold according to quality either as
breeding stock or as market poultry,
making sure to dispose Of them before
the birds begin to mott. Be sure the
adult birds in summer quarters are not
too heavily fed.
