SCiatica Gives
Fair Warning
Start Taking Rheuma at
Once and Prevent Rheuma-
tism from Becoming Chronic

Sharp, darting pains from the hips
down the legs to the knees are sig
nails of approach of sciatica, and
should be treated at once to prevent
rheumatism becoming chronic.
Rheuma dislodges the little uric
acid crystals in the blood vessels feed
ing the great sciatic nerve and creates
a free movement of the muscles and
joints. It stimulates the kidneys,
liver. bowels and skin to extra work
in throwing off the irritating poisons
throughout the system.
Read the testimony of Guy Torley,
the great cylist, of 265 Dayton avenue,
St. Paul, Mimi: q was so crippled
with sciatic rheumatism in my hips
that l could not walk without
crutches. I spent over $500 without

LARGER FLocKs OF
CHICKENS ON FARMS
BY T. J. CONWAY.
Texas Experiment Station.

According to the 1910 census, So
per cent OF all the farms Of Texas
had some kind OF poultry on them.
There we're but 12,71s,572 chickens.
or an average OF about thirty-hve
chickens TO a farm. This is very
poor showing for any State and shows
either a lack OF interest or apprecia-
ton for one Of the greatest cash crops
a farmer can raise. AS long as farm
ers have such small fiocks the less
interest they will take in them and
the income from such will be very
small. From observations in differ
ent sections the rule seems 10 be that
the smaller the flock the less interest
there is in poultry and the more mix
ed and mongrelized is the flock. With
large fiocks greater success has usual
Is been attained and the general con
ditions are better. FlOcks smaller
than seventy-fve birds are not con-
sidered as commercial enterprises and
not important enough TO receive
proper care. Small focks ordinarily
do not receive much attention. They
are kept principally TO supply the
home table and II there should hap
pen to be a surplus OF eggs or an
extra fowl. It is traded 10 the local
grocer for a few necessities and moth
ing more is thought Of the flock.
To manage a farm properly, some
provision should be made for poultry
and since poultry is such a profitable
enterprise. the flock should be OF a
commercial size. For these and other
reasons a farmer should keep a flock
OF at least one hundred hens. With
this flock Of one hundred hens, he is
going to take good care Of them, pro
viding a comfortable and convenient
house. They will be fed properly ant
regularly and given much consldera
ton. The returns from such a focl
will indeed be very profitable, the
number OF eggs will be large and car
be sold to appreciative buyers. The
flock should be purebred, because
poultry, like all other forms Of live
stock, should be properly and care
fully bred, as they do best under sucl
conditions. A purebred flock OF goo'
producers is a good asset Compare,
to cotton, a flock OF one hundred ant
fifty hens is worth much more TO {
farmer than six bales Of cotton at tel
cents.
Another feature unfavorable 4
every farm is that the farmers hav'
no system Of selling of hens whicl

The Bryan Baptist Academy foot

school team in a game on the academy
grounds yesterday afternoon by the
score Of 40 to 0.
The high school boys put up a hard
fight, but were unable to do anything
with their older and heavier op-
ponents. They were also handicapped
by the absence OF Osborne. their star

OF a bad foot which was injured in
the Nayasota high school game.
The game was rather slow on ac-
count Of the muddy condition OF the
field. and would have been uninterest-
ing but for the bright work OF some
OF the members OF each team.
The academy scored six touch.
downs and Howell kicked four goals,
which was good kicking, taking into
account the heavy mud.

score during the whole game. but

Their team work was good and they
ran interference well. but were nc

who broke up a majority OF the plays

the southwark must be given up alto
gether unless servia could be put out

To this were added minor irrita-
lions, such - the railroad question In
Macedonia. The Servians wanted to
add the railroads in the territory con.
quered from Turkey to the state sys'

whom were Austrians or Hungarians
objected. Moreover, there was CON.

to attribute the discord between Bull.

Thirty years ago Servia was a cats

the Servians can count on Russian
