Mysterious Clock

The Mysterious clock at the
Cochran Drug Company's store
attracts considerable attention. 1t
hangs in the show-window, being
suspended from above in a way
that permits OF a clear view Of II
from all sides, and to the observer
there is nothing in the way of a
motive-power contrivance in or a.
bout it. The wooden hands with
ornamental balls attached to them
and affixed to a large hexagonal
piece of glass on which dial is
painted, keeping fairly accurate
time from day to day is somewhat
mystifying. 1t is neat and clev-
err contrivance and customers Of
the Cochran Drug Co. are permit
ted to file "gusses as TO what
makes it 60" being given a
chance at winning one of several
prizes that are offered for the
nearest correct "guesses", The
only requirement to enter the con-
test is to purchase cake Of soap
costing 5 cents. Advertisement

es information as to prizes, etc.
The various answers to the ques-
ton "What makes it go" that are
being given will no doubt be a.
bout as interesting as the clock
itself has been; but it is likely that
when it is learned what really
makes it go, it will be surprising
in It's simplicity.

Florida Fighting tuberculosis

many llVeS ana VIII save many
more.
In other words, ignorance is
costing Florida each year a heavy
toll in human life and in sickness
that might be prevented. There
can be no deeper regret over the
death of a loved one than the
| knowledge-when it is too late
that it was unnecessary, that it
might have been prevented.
As everywhere else, so in Flori-
| da, little ailments, seemingly
ltrifing sicknesses' are neglected
with the, expectation that they will
"wear off" in a few days, or they
are treated by "Mother who
seems to diagnose by instinct ev-
cry physical disarrangement IN
her family and who has an "un-
failing remedy" for it, inherited
from several generations back or
accumulated from her own expert
ences or from those of her neigh
boring housewives. But the time
comes when instinct is sidctrack-
| ed and real trouble comes. 1t
comes to every family sooner or
later and it often becomes serious
far oftener than is necessary
from plain, everyday ignorance.
No disease in these modern days
is more insidious, more steaIthy III
its approach than tuberculosis,
and none is more dangerous both
to the victim and to those who are
in intimate daily association with
him. Consumption, as pulmonary
tuberculosis used to be called, is
not an incurable disease il 1t Is
recognized soon enough. Indeed,
high medical authority declares
that one American in every seven
bears the scar marks OF the dis
ease on lung tissue from an en-
counter at some time in his lie
with the "white plague, " Some
recover, some don't.
And so ignorance is the danger,
for when the disease has progress
ed far enough for the unprotes-
sional mind to suspect the truth,
the time of the funeral is not far
away.
Beginning with July OF this
wear. 1915, six splendidly quallt-
ed nurses will undertake, under
the direction Of the State Board oil
Health, a wonderful work among
1.-THE people of Florida. Starting
from six widely separated centers
of population, they will go into
each community, particularly in
to the smaller cities and the rural
districts, to do what they can to
arouse the people to the import
ance of this fight against tubercu-
losis. They will search out, so
far as is humanity possible, the
sufferers from this disease. They
will enlist the services of the regu-
liar practitioners where new cases
Ishall be discovered. They will
urge the open-air treatment-the
best in the world and the cheapest
for those who cannot avail
themselves of the costly sanitar-
ium. They Will show the patleht
and his family how to reduce to a
minimum the danger of spreading
the infection. Their services
those of these six Florida nurses,
who are far more than nurses in
their responsibilities -will be free
free as salvation, to be had for
the taking-to all the people OF
this great state, white and black.
1t cannot be expected that their
work will be confined to the study
of the tuberculosis problem. In
the conditions they will find and
III which they must work, must adj
wise for better sanitation and
cleaner surroundings; they will be

RAISING BROILERS ON FARM
Early Chick Is Most ProfitabIe-Large
Demand for Fowls Of Two 10
Three Pounds.
(By A c. SMITH.)

The early chick is the most profit
able, yet there is profit in the late
chick provided 1t is not too late.
There is an exceptionally large de.
mand In some sections for lightweight
roasters and broilers of from TWO o
two and a half pounds. This fur
nishes a splendid opportunity for
those who wish to rear and market
chicks without being obliged to house
them. Matched in May or June, they
should easily weigh two or two and
one-half pounds before october l. If
especially we'll fed, they should reach
that weight still earlier. This is the
most favorable time to hatch and raise
chickens, as the parent stock has been
out of doors long enough 10 acquire
splendid health and remarkable vtgor
Eggs, If sensibly set, should hatch al
most perfectly and the chicks should
live and thrive.
The equipment required is very
small-a good sized box or a barrel,
covered with waterproof paper, set IN
a dry sheltered place, may be used
both to set the hen in and to house
the brood. though the barrel is rather
unsuitable for the brood after the
chicks are weaned, especially If there
are many of them.
Both hen and chicks should be al
lowed free range after the chicks are
a few days old, to pick UP a large
share OF their living, but In addition
it is a good plan to feed them at night
and to give them all they will eat, as
they will grow faster and will either
be marketable at an earlier age OF
weigh more. and consequently bring
more, at a given time. Chickens Of
this weight, will not, 1t is true, bring
a fortune, but 1t must be remembered
that they cost very little to rear. The
fact that the earlier they are mar
keted, the better the price. should moi
be lost sight OF. For this reason. II
pays to feed them little where there
is not an opportunity to pick up abund
ance of food. 3

reach below the frost line and a line
of three-inch tile placed in the bottom,
connected with proper outlet. The
lower part of the trench is then filed
with fat stones, placed so as to give
chance for the free passage of water.
Smaller stones or cinders are placed
upon them, and up to within a lew
inches Of the ground surface. Stand
boards on edge so as to make a form
for the concrete of proper width, say
six or eight inches. Next prepare your
concrete by mixing Portland or other
good cement, one part, with three
parts sand, and water enough to make
a puttylike mass, with which the
board form is to be evenly filled DIP.
This makes a practically indestruct

CONCRETE HENHOUSE
Correct Methods Of Making Good
Quality of Material.
Building Can Be Made Ratproof with
Little Trouble and Slight Expense
Perfect Drainage Is I'm
portant Requisite.

With the rapid decrease Of our tim
Der supply and the resulting increase
in the price of lumber there has come
a necessary demand for new build
ing material. Nowhere has this de-
mand been felt more keenly than on
the American farm, where lumber has
till now been practically the only
building material. On account. how
ever, of the. farmers nearness to. the
timber itself, he has been the last one
to feel the full effect of the shortage.
In concrete building material has
been discovered that in many instances
has proved to be far superior to lum-
Der, brick or building stones on &C.
count of its durability. economy and
safety from fire loss. Moreover, 1t
can very often be used at the most
convenient time by the farmer himself
with a very little assistance.
Frequently cement users have made
costly mistakes by not informing
themselves properly before starting
their work concerning the correct
methods of making good concrete. For
this purpose the following materials
are necessary: (D cement; (2) sand;
(3) gravel or crushed stone, and (D
water
Cement is, therefore. only one part
ola concrete mixture. A far greater
proportion of sand and gravel than
cement is required. The quantity of
cement to be used and the strength
Of the concrete depends entirely on
the quality and size of the sand and
gravel. and it is of the utmost i'm
portance that these be Of the right
kind. With an equal amount of ce-
ment a far stronger concrete may be
made IL the sand aud gravel are Of
the proper size ard correctly pro-
portioned. 1t is sometimes thought
that any kind OF soil of sandy ma
ture, mixed with a small percentage
of cement will make concrete, but
this idea is incorrect.
In the selection of sand great care
should be used. and attention should
be given to its quality, for sand con
