DoNT'S IN POULTRY SHIPPING
Most Profitable to Zee Clean, Freoh
Boxes With Care and Neatness d
In Packing Fowls.

There r a number of "Don'ts"
that should be observed by shippers
of market poultry: Don't ship bony.
skinny stock. Don't ship half-picked,
fiesh-torn poultry. Don't ship to ev.
cry strange house that solicits your
consignment. First look them up; in.
v~estigate the references. Don't ship
dressed stock in any old box that
may be handy.
1t pays to use clean, fresh boxes.
using care and neatness in packing.
Frequently the buyer is present when
the box is opened, and a sale spoiled
because Of the packing. Don't pack
poultry after dressing until all the
animal heat Is out. Don't let some
little market f1uster cause you tc
change houses.
Get a good, solid house and stick
to it. That keeps the commission man
interested in retaining your trade,
and oftentimes he will pull you out
of a hole caused by a glut. Don't
fail to carefully inspect your shipment
before closing the box.
Put in the memorandum on your
W billhead, showing the amount and
other data. Keep a duplicate your.
self, thereby saving much annoyance
and frequent loss.

A small pen for the market birds
will hasten fattening.
Feed, care and hen sense decide
what the profits shall be.
1t is not too SOC to put houses and
coops in shape for winter.
The dull, l~istless bird cannot be re.
moved from the flock too soon.
A little iron tonic in the drinking
water is good during moulting.
In the fall and spring eggs
should be marketed at least once a
week.
"Clean the nest and not the egg,"
Is the advice of a successful eastern
egg farmer.
After dumping and burning the nest.
Ing material whitewash the inside Of
the nest box.
The early moulters are the early lay
ers. 1t Is a good plan to mark them
for breeders.
Any good stock dip also makes a
good d%isinfectant to kill disease germs
in poultry quarters.
More disease outbreaks in the flock
can be traced to unclean conditions
than poultrymen generally think.
When the clean, fresh eggs are gath
cred, they should be put in a clean.
dry, cool place until marketed.
Getting rid of all birds as soon aa
they are two years old will lessen
the chances Of disease In the flock.
To hasten feathering after the
mott, give a tablespoonful of sulphur
in a mash to every ten hens twice 8
week.
Corn meal mixed in with q small
quantity of shorts and moistened with
skim milk makes a good wet mash
to fatten the market birds.

Catholic divine declared the dances
have been described by one young
man as an "abominable orgy" From
what he had been told of the dances
Father Hackott said that for the time
being, the daIeers degrade themselves
to the leve OF the animals whose
names the d'unes bear, and that it
is sin and q crime, the attempt to
debase ones self, even though for a
short time, by copying action of
brutes of lower order of instinct.
He further declared that he believed
there was d city law comprehensive

on dancing these bad dances, That

A LAUGH THAT ROLLS

This is the universal opinion Of
everybody who has seen William A

and to give life rosy hue.
"Baby Nine" unlike many social

of it's audience at the very outset, and
proceeds to tickle it for two and a

with glee. A young married couple

criticised. Not only criticised, but
some people have gone so far as to
say that the police should prevent a
repetition of it. Several prominent

subject of the new dances some very
condemning things. For instance

traffic should be enough to arouse to
public actiony and the advent Of these
lascivious dances is pandering to the
same spirit, and should be prohibited
without delay And if the young are
so lost to the claims Of decent morals
as to outrage all proprieties, appeal
must be made to some sort of legal
restraint as protection for society
itself"
Rev. A. F.. Carr, of the Government
Street Presbyterian church, was very
brief in his severe denunciation of the
dances, saying in part:
THAT Mobile people should for a
moment tolerate thing in social gath
erings of young people, for which the
participants would be arrested if in a
public place in New York ought to
make us all feel ashamed. Parents
are largely responsible in this matter,
and will be doubly so if they allow
their daughters to attend any more
such gatherings without the assurance
that these dances will-not be repeated.
DR.. G. c. Tucker, of st. Johns
church, when interviewed, was horri-
fed on being told of such dances be
ing held in Mobile, also at the names
of the participants, and said even the
very titles of the dances suggested
something that would besmirch the
chaste and innocent.
