the stomach's refuse, loss of appetite.
restlessness, irritability, and similar
evidences OF disorder are soon appar-

healthy, happy child Is assured.
At the first sign OF constipation the
mother should administer a mild laxa-
tive to carry off the congested waste
from the stomach that is fermenting
and forcing poisonous gases into tho
system. A simple compound of laxa-
tive herbs with pepsin is highly recon-

bedtime usually serving to bring an
easy, thorough, natural movement

known as DR.. Caldwelrs Syrup Pepsin

One end of box is left open. Place
this at entrance OF coop, The other
end and one side is of wire netting.
This admits light and induces the
fowls to enter, writes Fred l.. Bailey
in the Missouri Valley Farmer. Three
doors made to slide back and forth
and large enough to admit large
fowl are placed on the fourth side.
Knobs or blocks are nailed on the
center of doors, and two large blocks
put beneath the box raise it level with
the entrance. A partition is made to
drop where the dotted lines are shown,
which will keep the chickens at one
end when all but a few are caught.
When you want to apply lice powder
to a number of fowls or Gull out the
flock, go into the coop and drive the
fowls in till the box is full, then close
the entrance door. The chickens can
then be caught by the legs and drawn
out at slide doors one by one. Two
hands can make quick work, one
catching the fowls, the other apply

MILK FED TO THE CHICKENS
Liquid Contains All That Beef Scraps
and Green Cut Bones Do, But in
Diluted Form.

The most successful poultrymen
feed some kind of animal food to
their chickens of all ages and condi-
tons. In the wild state birds secure
both vegetable and animal foods.
Bugs and worms supply the animal
food, and seeds and other vegetable
growth the vegetable food. The
animal portions of the foods is always
q necessity for normal maturity and
good egg laying.
So essential is animal matter in the
poultry feeds that the packing firms
manufacture and sell large quantities
of prepared beef scraps and ground
bone, which are sold very widely over
the country Those who use them find
that it pays very well. 1t has been
found both xperimentally and by
practical tests that sweet milk, sour
milk, buttermilk-ir fact, milk in
any form-contains all the elements
found in other forms of animal mat
ter.
Milk contains all that beef scraps
and green cut bone does, but in a
more diluted form, and it is highly
digestible. and no digestive troubles
arise from either old or young chick
ems consuming large quantities of il.
Every one who keeps COWS and
poultry on the same farm will find it
profitable to reserve all the milk for
feeding the flock, and dispose only of
butter fat. 1t is the best animal food
that can be given TO them. Give all
the chickens all the milk they will
drink. 1t will do them no harm

GAINESVILLE HAS A

Two Boys Held in Death of
Matilda Beresterman.
MAKE PARTIAL CONFESSION
Harry Eeager, Aged 10. and Ed.

With Woman on Fatal Night and
That Ihef Lett Her Dead.

Janesyille.-Additional mystery
surrounding the death of Matilda
Bereresterman, who was supposed to
have been murdered in che kitchen
Of her fathers home, resulted IN the
arrest Of Harry Berger, II years Old
and Edwin Meyer, - years, IN con-
nection with the case. Fred Berest-
erman, the father, Is now in jail,
charged with his daughters death.
The two young men tell story,
I'm a signed statement, which coin
cideg to come extent with that told
by Bereresterman They say they met
Bereresterman, who was on his way
home while in an intoxicated condi-
ton, and that they assisted him to
his house. which is on the outskirts
OF the city.
Arriving there, they were met by
Miss Bereresterman, with whom they
admit having improper relations.
They retired TO the rear part OF the
house, and according 20 their story,
the young woman became uncon-
scious and, thinking she was dead,
they carried her into the front room
where they placed her on a couch,
after telling the father of her condi-
ton. Then they went to their homes.
When the police arrived at the
house the following morning. after
being notified of the young woman's
death by the father, her face was
battered and her body showed
numerous bruises as though she had
been kicked A bloody hammer,
with which it is supposed she was
struck In the face, was found in the
house.
Berger and Meyer are unable to
account for the condition of the
young woman's body when found by
the police. but they say it is possible
that she was mistreated by her father
after they left the house.

MAKE PROFIT IN CuckthtL>
Neglected by Many Poultry Raisers
When They May BE Made Profit
abIe-Fatten When Young.
cBy r. C. wEATHERsToNE)


Too many poultry raisers neglect
the cockerels, when in reality they
may be made very profitable. Many
persons do not know what to do with
them, and they grow up without much
care and are marketed when in poor
condition.
Cockerels ought to be separated
from the pullets as soon as the SIX
can be easily distinguished. The
cockerels may be pretty closely cen
fined if they are to be fattened FOR
market, and as they are OF no other
use they should not be allowed 10
range, because this prevents the lay
ing on of fat.
Feed them twice daily on porridge
made of corn meal, four parts; mid
dlings or cheap -four, two parts; beef
scraps, one part, chopped very fine.
This should be mixed with milk or
water and should not be too sloppy,
but just so it will drop from the end
of wooden spoon.
If any is left after feeding 1t should
be removed and the feed dish thor
oughly cleaned and scalded.
The birds should be kept as quiet
as possible and given plenty of shade
and clean water.
When they are three months old
they will begin to grow very rapidly
under this method Of feeding and are
soon ready for the market. Their
flesh is firm, but not hard and dry as
those of the birds that are fed too
much dry grain.
Many poultrymen use small coops
containing four to six birds each, but
coCkerels can be confined just as well
if confined in lots of say so. with a
floor space of about so square feet.
They should have lot large enough
to give them some exercise, but not
too mucn.
The time to fatten cockerels is when
they are young, because 1t costs less
than when they are six or seven
months old. Fattened at three or four
months their flesh Is of much superior
quality than when allowed to attain
their growth.
