POSSIBLE REMEDY FOR RoUP
Disease Is Difficult to Cure and A.
feeted Birds Should Be Removed
to Roomy Coop.

Roup may be known from an often
siVe discharge from the nostrils and
swelling below the eyes. The swell
ing in some cases entirely closes the
eyes. This disease is known as roup,
and is difficult to cure. Remove all
the healthy fowls. Put the affected
ones in a warm. dry shed or roomy
coop.
Wash out the nostrils and mouth
with warm water, using a small
syringe to do SO; then put a piece Of
camphor the size of a hickory nut
into one quart of boiling water and
hold the fowls head over 1t for ten
minutes; repeat three times a day
Also give one teaspoonful of cod liver
oil at a dose twice a day. If the
swelling closes the eyes, open them
and syringe out the yellow matter
and wash with warm water into
which drop of carbolic acid has been
thoroughly stirred
Fowls thSt are badly diseased
should be killed and buried. Clean
out the house, dust with fresh air
slsked lime, fork up the yard and
spread over it a thick coat of fresh
air-slacked lime. Add few drops of
bromide of potassium to the drinking
water. Give no other water. This IL
the best method to use.

Best Poultry Tonnes.

Fresh air, sunshine and exercise are
the best poultry tonics. But fresh air
does not mean drafts in the houses,
nor does sunshine call for exposure to
hot suns during the summer. The
houses should be so constructed that
fresh air can constantly be present to
drive out bad odors and purify the at
mosphere.
The sunshine should be able to
reach every corner to destroy any
germs that might be lurking in damp
ness. The fowls should exercise by
scratching that a good circulation OF
the blood may DO stimulated The
above are the three best medicines IN
the poultry Doctors are.

After the grippe the body is left in a
depleted condition, subject to attacks
from almost every kind of disease. Thou
sands Of untimely graves have been flied
by pneumonia, constipation, Bright's dis
ease and other troubles following the
Grippe.
Ordinary remedies are inefficient because
they do not provide for thorough consti-
tutional recovery. DIR. Kings Royal Ger
netuer cures the Grippe and does so pleas
unity, promptly, safely and completely.
DR. w. G. cunningham, Nashville, Tenn.
EDITOR of the Sunday School Literature,

perience with La Grippe as follows: Last

weeks unable to do any work l began to
use DR.. Kings Royal Germetuer and found
almost immediate relief. My appetite re-

POINCARE WILL NOT SHOOT BIRDS

President Poincare is opposed
strongly to the killing of animals ana
birds for sport, and one of his hrst
acts after election was to announce
himself a patron of the French society
the purpose of which is to AFFORD pro
lection TO animals. He does not, how
ever, wish to pose as an animal lover
merely in name, and he has just made
the official announcement that he will
not hold a gun in hand during his
term Of office.
This decision OF the president is an
entirely personal one. He declares he
has no intention Of interfering with
the sport of others, and that when his
duties require him to be present at a
presidential hunting party he will full
fill them.
II is believed. however, that this
attitude Of NJ. Poincare will have
considerable effect on presidential en-
pertaining during the coming years OF
his administration. Out OF Difference

the rural districts as the bee martin.
a species of fly catcher which inhabits
nearly every part of the United States.
The kingbird has been under indict-
ment in many sections as a destroyer
of bees and a foe of apiarists.
Experts now declare that it kills
only the drones and the useless bees,
and is, therefore, a boon to the bee
raiser. Besides that, it preys on many
harmful insects and protects farmers
