Poultry Farm.

Baxter is going to have a new
industry.
Mr.. and Mrs. d. Martin, who
for the past year have been in
the chicken business in Galena,
have moved here and are in the
same business, but on a much
larger scale. They brought four
hundred chickens with them be-
sides incubators and breeders and
many other very useful things
that are needed to carry on the
poultry business on a large scale.
The Warwick Chicken Farm is
located in the southeast corner of
the city, in Warwick addition
(from which it gets its name).
They have picked a beautiful
spot for this business and it
won't be their fault il they don't
have the finest and largest chick
en- farm in this part of the coun-
try. They have been here about
six weeks and havePut in every
moment of their time remodeling
the old home and building COM
Portable quarters for their chick
ems. Mr.. Martin has a beautiful
patch of rye that is up about six
inches high and large patch OF
oats just coming up. He intends
to raise enough small grain to do
all his feeding next year, which
will be no small amount, for
when you raise chickens by the
thousands, as will be raised on
the Warwick farm each year, it
is surprising the amount of feed
it takes. They have a fine base
ment and intend to use this for
their incubators.
Mrs. Martin (better known as
Jennie, who for years has handed
you your mail at the general de-
Livery window claims to be an
expert with an incubator. She
Matched out 40 chickens last
year and raised them on the bach
of a 4O-ft lot in Galeua, and nov
that she has the experience, plen
ty of incubators and breeders,
coy corner to hatch them i9 and
plenty of range for them aftel
they are Matched, there is NJ
reason why the number next yea
shouldn't be thousands instead O
hundreds.

Best Cough MOdE
cine for Children.

"Three years ago when l was
living in Pittsburg one of my
children had a hard cold and
coughed dreadfully. Upon the
advice of "a druggist l purchased
bottle of Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy and it benefited him at
once. 1 find it the best cough
medicine for children because 1t
is pleasant to take. They do not
object to taking it," writes Mrs.
Lafayette Tuck, Homer City, Pa.
This remedy contains no opium
or other narcotic, and may be
given to a child as confidently as
an adult. Sold BY all dealers.

Made In America.

The MADE in America" move
ment is sweeping the country.
It has penetrated every city,
village and hamlet, and is still
hunting for fresh fields to invade.
Everybody seems to want goods
MADE in America" and for so
much, at least, we may thank
the war in Europe.
It is a good slogan.
1t keeps American people en-
ployed, and it keeps American
money in circulation at home.
1t is good for our country, and
it 10 good for each individual.

Pertinent Question.

The crying need of the nation
today is the continued presence
of young men on the farms,
where they can be of greater val
ne to the country than in any
other walk of life.
How are We to prevent OuI
young men from rushing to the
large overcroWded citiesI
How are we to keep them or
the farms7
The man-Who can successfully
answer this question will be
public benefactor.

The farm won't be open for
business until the first of Jauu-

hope and cheer for them by Mrs.
Blanche Bowers, Indiana, Pa.
For years my digestion was so
poor that l could only eat the
lightest foods. 1 tried every
thing that l heard of to get re-
lief, but not until about a year
ago when / saw Chamberlain's

bottle of them, did l find the
