Your family physician will verify the

Liniments or outward application of

Chicken Is nothing but chicken"
Is being undeniably demonstrated by
the splendid birds which are being
shown at the hundreds of small
town fairs and exhibitions during

the poultry show which is crowded.

the North will never have, and that
Is the climate. kind reader, just
how many people in the North do you
suppose there are who at some 20
below zero period of their winter
months do not wish they were down
in some Southern State, where the
winters are warm, and the blue grass
lives the year around? Very few of
them don't envy you and your splen-

raising good poultry. Nor is this all.
The eyes Of The Northern poultry

less than eighty eggs a year she does
not pay for her keep. Very few Of
the common or scrub stock will lay
that many eggs year. The average
man Or woman does not stop to think
that a common chicken eats as much
and Is as hard to raise as a fine,
ssblooded chicken, and when 1t Is
ggrown 1T is not worth over twenty to
thirty cents, while blooded bird Is
worth from enc dollar up. Many
breeders who have, raised good poul-
try have received $50 to 500 for a
single bird, while sales at SIS to SO
are everyday occurrences. A person
right here in Nashville was much
surprised one day when she was Of
Tered $40 for a cockerel Of pure
blood that was running around the
yard. 1t is needless to say she sold
the bird, and this one instance has
caused her to make many dollars out
OF pure bred poultry. Grant that
one never intends to sell a chicken or
an egg. Why feed few scrubs that
will lay few eggs each year, and
those at time when eggs are plenti-
full and cheap, when half that many
thoroughbreds or less, on great deal
less feed, will give more eggs, and
all the year round, in winter as we'll
as spring? Study the poultry busi-
ness. Go to the shows. Learn the
value Of fine bred stock over COM
mon or mongrel stock. Nearly every
one has a little time each day to
spare, that If applied to pure bred
poultry will result in quite a num-
ber Of extra dollars in the pocket
book each year. Try it and see.

it became apparent that the under

is estimated that five thousand per
sons visited the building during the
day. Motion picture machines played
upon the crowds and upon ny build

night the building stands completed,
painted, papered, carp@ted and fur
nished throughout,
The auditorium Of the new church
is 80 by so rect and the Sunday
school room is Is by 81. Another
class room is IS by 20 feet. There
are two entrances, each with a vesti-

Introducing New Blood.
OR. w. Ward, in Southern Poultry
Journal.)


One Of the first questions invarla-
bly, asked BY the now Or Interested
beginner is chow often is it necessary
to introduce new blood?" There
seems to be a deep rooted suspicion
In the minds of many that to breed
along with one line Of blood with
out purchasing new male or some
thing Of that nature will very quick
~ work the worst consequences i'm
aginable. This should not be so,
as practical and we'll Informed
breeders know that in introducing
new blood he has the greatest cause
for concern. Nearly all the superior
breeds and varieties Of horses, cattle,
sheep, poultry and other live stock
have been produced by close in-and-in
breeding, or what Is otherwise term
ed as line breeding, and breeders
who out-cross year after year, by
purchasing new male birds, etc, will
seldom produce fair percentage Of
average specimens, because the
many unknown factors in the new
blood introduced will constantly crop
out in a multitude of undesirable
features. We would advise the no
vice to adhere as closely to line
breeding as possible If he wishes to
attain the greatest success. The only
factor to guard against in selecting
the birds is strong vitality and yigor-
Gus constitution. When this Is para
mount the matter Of relationship
may be safely eliminated. 1t is quite
true that the cSrrect markings, uni
form type and multiple colorlng can
best be sustainel by such practice,
and it has also been demonstrated
that heavy laying has been produced
in a like manner It Is merely n
question Of vigor df constitution and
not relationship.

Advantage to Farmers.
(Southern Poultry Journal. !

(Southern Poultry Journal.)
1t would be Of considerable adyan-
tage to farmers if they paid more
attention to the business of poultry
raising. That it is profitable, if SEN
sibly and methodically pursued, has
been demonstrated time and time
again. A farmers wife can easily
earn sufficient money for household
purposes out OF her poultry, and
even save something for a "rainy
day" Apart from the profit the
keeping of fine poultry is entered
into by English ladies, as adding
much to the interest of country life,
and to the attractiveness of the
country homes, and there seems to
be no explanation why the fashion
should not be adopted in American
rural and suburban homes for the
same reason. AS branch Of farm
ing that requires so little hard
work, carries with it so much enjoy
ment, and takes up so little space,
there is nothing equally as profitable
that could take it's place

FLAG TORN DOWN AT MEETING.
Stars and Stripes Tlampled Under
EOot--Red Banner Remained.

| New York, May 1.-The Stars and
| Stripes were torn down and tram
! pied under foot and a red flag sub
stituted during q fierce fight at a
May Day meeting OF the Socialist
party and affiliated unions in Union
Square Park late to-day. That a
serious panic did not ensue Is be-
lievcd to have been due to the fact
that thousands OF persons on the out
skirts Of the crowd did not know
what the trouble was Responsible
ity for the tearing down OF the flag
Is disclaimed by the Socialists, who
assert that members Of the Industrial
Workers Of the World committed the
act. The Socialist representatives on
the platform appear to have done
their best to protect the national
colors.
The trouble started at the conclu-
sion OF parade Of 5000 men and
women who gathered in the park for
speech making. Red banners, the
cmblems Of Socialism, already adorn-
ed the speakers platform, and the
band was playing the "Marseillaise"
when the Stars and Stripes were car
riod to the stand as the first speaker
was about to be introduced. Instant
ly there was the widest excitement.
Take that dirty rag down." went
up a cry from the crowd. But those
on the platform held their ground,
and some with cooler heads tried to
quiet the tumult that had broken out
I'VE don't recognize that flag"
cried a man in front as he tried to
reach the platform.
That cry was taken up by others,
a number Of whom fought their way
to the platform. Those on the plat
form tried to protect the flag and a
fist fight resulted, in which police
man was the only officer who figured.
His club knocked three men down
Several men were tossed bodily over
the platform rail into tho crowd
Bloody faces were numerous.
The big American flag was finally
torn down and hurled to the ground.
Miss Caroline Dexter, member Of
the Socialist party, tall, muscular
woman, elbowed her way to where
the fallen banner lay.
Men like YOU should be shot,"
she cried as she gathered up the flag.
! She met no resistance and carried the
! flag home with her.
With nothing but red banners to
! decorate the platform the meeting
| proceeded, but the program as ar
| ranged by the Socialist party had to
be given up and the speakers were
mostly from the ranks of the Indus
trial Workers of the World.
