? IRON RIVER
From the Pioneer:

From the Pioneer:
Joseph T. LaBlanc, foreman of the
by-products department OF the Iron
River Lumber Company's mill, lost
his left arm and came nearly losing
his life last Friday afternoon while
engaged in his work at the plant.
He undertook to put some rosin on
a cross or reverse belt and in some
manner not quite clear his arm was
caught ia the betting and dragged
into the pulley. 1t all happened so
suddenly that no one working near
him knew what happened. though
one of the workmen heard him
scream and saw him fall. Aid was
Immediately summoned and the
wound was bound up to stop the
flow of blood. DR.. Johnson was
called and dressed the wound and
that afternoon the injured man was
taken to Superior hospital on the
South Shore train.
Reports from the hospital are that
Mr., LaBlanc is getting along as well
as could be exp cted, and there
seems to be no doubt now but that
he will live. Mr.. LaBlanc was
married very recently and was a
young man with life's work before
him.
Eddie Forss, a Swede Finlander,
aged 80 years. committed suicide
last Monday morning about nine o.
clock by throwing himself in front
OF a freight train snort distance
east of the South Shore crossing
west of the Iron River Lumber Com
pany's mill.
The members of the Evangelical
church, the associated charities and
friends. held reception on Thurs
day evening at the church parlors in
honor of the return of Rev. and Mrs.
A. A, Krug to the Iron River field
for another year.
The Iron River schools will close
the latter part of next week with
the usual interesting exercises at
tending the last week of school.
A class of seven-three boys and
four girls-haye finished the full
course of study and will receive
their diplomas. They are Phillip D.
Elliot, W. Clifford Irving, Louis D.
McCudden, Marie E. Mitchell. Mary

The Steamer America of the
Booth company line arrived IN
Washburn on her initial trip OF
the season at Midnight Friday
night. 1t left again at $50 the
following morning on the return
trip.
The boat started out from
Duluth with forty passengers
and about thirty tons of freight.
Many OF the passengers and
freight was unloaded enroute
between Duluth and Ashland.
After June LIST the Booth COM
pany will run two boats between
Duluth and Washburn, making
the trips Wednesdays and Fri
days. The both boats are as
fine as there is on the lakes and
business is expected to be heavy
as soon as the season gets
opened up.

FEATHERS AND EaasHELLs.

When q lantern is taken into poul-
try house at night the hens think It's
sunrise and come down off the rOost.
| A small electric fash light is better, as
there is no danger of fire. The quick
fash bewilders the chickens You are
through your errand before they can
Jump down and thus spend the night
on the cold floor.
A farm journal advises Its read
ers to buy dead horses and grind them
up for their hens. Such a practice
would soon destroy sn egg sellers
business reputation, and any one do
ing such stunt should be reported to
the board Of health.
If your hens loaf in a corner during
cold weather you should get them hun
CRY and then make them scratch their
grain out of litter. We have never
seen hen lay well In winter that did
not exercise well.
While the production Of eggs is vast
ly increasing, the appreciation of eggs
as an article Of diet Is much higher
and, with the increase in population
and meat prices, the demand for eggs
Ia really greater than the supply. Mil
lions Of people are now solving this
egg problem by filing the family egg
basket from back lot flock.
Both the hen and rooster have a rev.
erence for the egg. When they de-
generate into egg flends 1t is nearly al
ways because some human teaches
them the trick. Too few nests, too
small a nest, high nests, open top
nests, absence of shell making material
are mainly responsible for egg eating.
There is an old saying that the tail
can't wag the dog. This is rather re-
versed In the case Of some Of our Leg
horns bred for. show, for some Of the
ROSTERS, especially, are about all tail.
This means less eggs, less vitality and
less fertility.
An order for day old incubator
chicks was shipped from Bloomington,
though FIVE days in transit, were in
fine shape on arrival. They ship bet
ter than eggs for Matching.
The usefulness Of many a good breed
er, as well as his beauty, is often de-
stroyed by freezing of the comb and
wattles. Move the rooster into the
middle Of the roosting flock at night or
sleep him in a cozy covered box.
Two Shamokin Pa.) neighbors had a
scrap over a hen that would fly over
the fence. The owner, a woman,
claimed her neighbor killed the hen
and had him hailed before court, where
he was found not guilty, and the trial
cost the county just $500. Next!
A good feed Of onions is fine for the
flock occasionally, as onions are good
worm killers and good for liver trou-
BILE, some focks being predisposed to
the latter ailment They should be fed
raw and not too generously at first, es-
pecially where flocks do not have plen-
ty Of green's. AS they are apt to flavor
the egg, feed them when hens are not
In full lay.

VENT GLEET.

Vent gleet Is an offensive, contagious
and before discovery generally spreads
to the fowls oviduct, rectum and vent.
The mucous membrane becomes hot,
!ed and swollen. There Is a thin, yell
lowish, very offensive discharge which
clings to the feathers around the vent,
blocks the passage and causes sores
and deep ulcers on the outer skin.
Like roup, vent gleet has Its own Pc
culiar, very disagreeable odor. The
excrement swarms with microbes, and
the disease quickly spreads from fowl
to fowl. Disinfection Is necessary.
The victim should be Quarant1ned and
quick treatment given, for the disease
Is often fatal, and when treatment Is
delayed or the fowl RECEIVERS itself 1t is
generally afterward worthless as a
breeder.
The affected parts should be thor
oughly cleansed in real warm water
strong with bicarbonate Of soda and
held In the hot solution for ten min
utes daily while swelling and infiam-
nation are extreme. An injection OF
q / per cent solution Of carbolic acid
should be given, and wad of cotton
wet In this solution should be inserted
several times a day.
The external sores should be well
busted with boracic acid.
To stop discharge we have found
nothing better than Ave grain capsules
of venetian red, four to the dose, as Of
ten as conditions indicate.
Bread soaked in milk spiced with a
little cinnamon Is good diet.

Jack Mussell while playing on a
child's bed Tuesday morning, jump

he fell over and safety blanket pin
that had become unclasped entered
and pierced one corner of his right
eye. A physician was summoned
but the nature of the wound was
such that Mr.. and Mrs. Mussell left
on the first train possible, for Mil
waukee to place the boy in charge OF
DIR. Snyder, an eye specialist, hoping
to save the member. Every person

WILLIAM sWIFT,s WATERLOO.


William Swift was evef..boasting
That in speeding his outfit
There was naught on earth could stop
him,
Nothing that his car couldn't hit.
He had smashed So many gandera
Pups and piglets, old sows, too,
That the farmers held a meeting
To consider what to do.
After talking DER the matter
They were almost in despair,
When q preacher from a corner
Thusly did address the chair:
"Mr. Chairman, I've a hen sir,
That came over In the ark
have tried in vain to kill her,
But no Ratchet made a mark.
LET us place her in the road there
Right beside old Darby creek,
And we'll then see what will happen
To this auto fend SO slick"
Down the road came William swiftly,
Laughed with glee to see that hen,
Turns q little bit more gas on,
Coin q hundred miles just then.
BangI the buzz car hits the henlet;
Smash! bounds back against q pole.
Billy and his old wrecked auto
Drop into the swimming hole.
Brother, does an auto slaughter
Quick, run to the preacher near!
He has lots of rubber -ccsters,
Loving gifts from members dear.
