HatchiBg With Hens.

The best results in natural
Matching will be obtained when
the hens are set on the ground.
Repeated experiments have dem
onstrated that where hens were
set in this way stronger, bigger
chicks were Matched than from
those set in nests off the ground.
If it is not convenient to build
out door nesting coops, or there
should be no shed available with
a dirt floor and the hens have to
set in nests with wooden bot
toms, writes J. E. Dougherty, in
a recent bulletin of the CaIifor-
MIA experiment station, cut a
square on fresh sod and lay it in
the bottom of the nest box just
before the eggs are put in.
They put on top just sufficient
straw to hold the eggs in the
center. The hens should be al
loved to sit on china eggs for a
few days before giving them
good eggs, in order to let them
get used to the coo, and also to
see if they are really in earnest
about wishing to sit. Just be.
fore putting the good eggs under
them, the hens should be busted
with an effective lice powder anc
a little of the powder sprinklec
over the nest. AS soon as the
hens have brought off theil
chicks, the egg shells and the
old nesting materials should be
cleaned out.

Plans TO FLY the Sea.

Alexander Dumas, a French
engineer, has placed before the
French Aerial Navigation society
the result Of his studies of the
problem of trans Atlantic aero
plane flight. Under the plans
of M. Dumas, the trip would take
81 hours, exclusive of stops, of
which there would be two, the
Azores and Newfoundland, for
fuel and provisions.
The machine advocated by Du-
mas would be a huge aeroplane
having an average speep of 500
miles an hour, at a height of 16,-
$40 feet. A crew of 10 men, total
weight of the outfit 20. 600 pounds
carrying four 200 h. o. engines
and $3.50 pounds of fuel.

The very first thing to do on
noticing signs of illness in bird
is to isolate it.
The best nests for laying hens
is close to the floor. darkened,
and easily movable.
Feed plenty of charcoal, as it
is one of the best things for
keeping the poultry healthy.
Eggs cannot be produced with
out heterogeneous food in some
shape. Bones are absolutely es-
sential.
Do not forget that your fowls
need green food. If it is impos
sible to give them a change of
yard or runs, see that they get
some kind of green food during
the daily feed.

Sensible Women Know
Foundation of Health

AS health talks to women become
more general, both in the newspapers
nd on the platform, the mass of women
re beginning to realize what the more
1tivated have always known, that
)od health cannot be found in powder
OK. The eXternals of health may be
'btained in that way, but the basis of
nealth lies deeper, and yet is just as
-asily obtained.
The most important thing that q
goman can do for herself, and about
which she is often most neglectful, is
% watch the condition of her stomach
md bowels. The weary eyes, the bad
breath, the frequent headaches, the
pimpleS, the general air of lassitude is
nine times out of ten the result of con-
stipation or indigestion, or both. Many
simple remedies can be obtained, but
the best in the estimation of most
women is DR.. CaldwelPs Syrup Pepsin.
1t Is mild, pleasant to the taste and
exactly suited to her needs. 1t is far
The Adair County news., 1914-03-25

superior to salts, cathartic pills, waters,
etc, which are entirely too violent.
Women should see to it that they
have at least one movement of the
bowels each day, and when showing any
tendency to constipation should take
DR.. CaldwelPs Syrup Pepsin in the
small dose prescribed. a brief use of
il will so train the stomach and bowel
muscles that all forms of medicine can
be dispensed with. These opinions are
voiced by thousands of women, after
personal experience. among them Miss V.
l.. Moore, 80 Claiborne St, Nashville,
Tenn, and Florence Cook, Lucas, Ky.
Anyone wishing to make trial OF this
remedy before buying it in the regular
way of a druggist at fifty cents or one

Obituary..

7:30 a. M, death entered the
home of Mrs. R. P. Breeding and
claimed as his own Miss Addie
Bardin, a young lady who had
for five years made her home
with Mrs. Breeding.
A victim of tuberculosis, the
end was not a surprise to her
many friends, who could only
watch with sad hearts the going
out of life so endeared to all.
Born in Adair county in 1892
She came to Breeding five years
ago andf the first made many
warm friends.
She leaves a father, step moth
err, one brother, a half brother,
two sisters and a host of friends.
During a series OF meetings
conducted here by Rev. R. L.
Tally in 1910 she joined the
Methodist Church South and to
| the end lived a consistent chris
tian.
Since the organization of the
Woman's Foreign Missionary So
ciety at this place she has been
an active member and for some
months before her death had
been President. She never miss
ed an official session of this so
citey or any religious service I'M
less it was physical impossible
ity to be present. Only one
month before the end came she
listened to her pastor deliver his
monthly sermon, although at the
time she was scarcely able to be
up.
Funeral services were conduct
ed from the Church Monday at
$3.50 p. M, by her pastor, Rev.
Caughron. A large number of
friends were present to pay the
last tribute of respect to one
whom they had loved and honor
ed. Tues day the remains were
conveyed to her fathers home
near Fairplay for interment.
The church has lost one of its
strongest members, The Mission
airy Society a faithful President,
the Sunday School a devoted
scholar and the community at
large a noble, religious character.
One whom it regret to give up.
But we know that she is at rest,
for those at her bedside when
the end came heard only words
of praise for the Savior whom
she so truly loved and served
during her brief stay on earth.
In years to come the memory
of her unselfish devotion to all
that was good and pure will
cheer many sad hearts, and
make lighter the burden of many
who are weary.
1t is such lives as this that re-
ally count and are worthy of be-
ing initiated. Such lives as this
that are uplifting and ennobling
and such lives as this that will
finally be the means of bringing
the world to that high plain of
Christian manhood and woman.
hood for which we have so often
heard her pray.
How truly can it be said Of
: her in the language of Paul,
"She has fought a good fight
she has kept the faith. she ha'
finished the course, hencefortl
there is laid up for her a crown
