VALUABLE LOT OF HENS.
Small Flock Net Owner Big Sum i'm
Just a Few Months.

Mrs. T. Lonsdale of Des Moines
claims the record for one of the most
profitable flocks of chickens in the
city. With 116 hens she sold STAT
worth of eggs between Feb. 1 and
July 8. Several dollars worth of
eggs also were used for setting be-
sides what were eaten by the family
and used in the cooking. The bid
dies which laid so we'll were Plym-
cuth Rocks and Rhode Island Reds.
Mrs. Lonsdale started three years
ago with sixteen little chicks. A few
days ago she received $3.50 for her
entire flock. She figures that she
has been well paid for her time and
trouble besides having had fresh
eggs for the table from the time
her first sixteen pullets began to lay
The chickens were sold because the
family is leaving the city.

dents To BE Made The Subject
of Study.

Dayton Stoner, of Iowa City, en-
rloyed in the biological section of
the state geological survey, has
started out to make a thorough in
yestigation Of the gopher and SPUR
rel situation in Iowa. This will in
clude inquiry as to the extent of the
pest of these animals, the manner
of killing them, and whether or not
any good has beer, accomplished by
the bounty. The bounty question
is big one. In some counties as
much as $4,000 a year is paid for
bounties on the pocket gopher. The
situation seems to be different in diff
ferent counties of the state. The re-
suits of the investigation will be
embodied in one of the bulletins of
the survey.

Extensive Publicity.

The biggest advertising stunt Man.
son ever had was recently pulled by
two upstreet drug stores, says the
Democrat. The Rexhll Store had
sent out hundreds of coupons for
ice cream cone gratis, and when the
White Gross drug store people saw
this they began to give away the Gig
ars and ice cream. Then the Rexall
store hired an orchestra and the
White Cross people evened things
up by hiring a brass band. so the
struggle for publicity went on with
a musical accompaniment. There
was a perfect jam of people in both
drug stores and the air was filled
with cigars, ice cream cones. gun,
candy, music and soda water. 1t
was a great day for the drug stores.

Democrat on Wrong Scent.

There came near being strange
cat in the garnet at the republican
state convention at Des Moines We'd
nesday. Our good democratic friend
r. N. Douglass, got it into his nog-
gin somehow that the Sons of Wood
row Wilson held their state conven-
ton this week. Accordingly he
bought ticket and boarded the
Milwaukee passenger and started for
the Capitol City. AS he alighted
from the train at Mason City to
change to the Short Line whom
should he meet but Ed Prior and on
inquiry found he was bound for the
republican rally. "Rube" pulled out
an almanac and found he was a
week ahead of time, whereupon he
presented Prior with a case OF
choice cigars he was carrying to
Connolly and begged him TO keep the
circumstance under his lid. And
"Rube" caught the first train back
home.-Postville Review.

Beware If Yonr Well is shallow.

The following is taken from the
current issue of Farm and Fireside:
"If the farm is supplied with
water from a shallow we'll it's just
an even bet that the family is drink
ing disease germs with every draft.
At least that seems to be the case
in Indiana, where Barnard analysed
the water from 900 wells and found
half of them polluted. Does this con-
Germ you? The Chinese keep healthy
while drinking polluted water by
making weak tea of it and never
drinking anything but the tea. The
boiling kills the germs. But in most
cases pure water may be got by some
pains and a little expense"
