some select their larger squads for
market and keep the smaller birds,
which would sell for much lower
figure as market squads, let them
grow and sell them later as breeders.
Great care should be taken in the
purchase of stock to know that it is
from lofts where there is no vermin.
It is next to impossible to get lice out
of the loft when the flock once gets
thoroughly infested, and the introduce
ton Of one or two dirty pigeons will
very soon cause such condition.
Flocks VII be found where there is q
tendency toward roup, canker, and
other diseases, and these must be
avoided IL success is to be secured.
Owners of fiocks that have been in
tested are generally anxious to dis
pose Of them, and dealers have been
known to purchase these goods, and
after a little doctoring, offer them for
sale, being careful to say. They are
mated birds and in the prime of con-
dition as far as age. weight. etc, are
concerned" It is such experiences as
these that cause many to have Ill
luck from the beginning; In fact, they
failed before they had really begun.

TAKE SALTS TO FLUSH
KIDNEYS lF BACK HURTS


Most folks forget that the kidneys,
like the bowels. get sluggish and clog
ged and need a flushing occasionally,
else we have backache and dull misery
in the kidney region. severe head
aches. rheumatic twinges, torpid liver,
acid stomach. sleeplessness and all
sorts Of bladder disorders.
You simply must keep your kidneys
active and clean, and the moment you
feel an ache or pain in the kidney
region, get about four ounces OF Jad
Salts from any good drug store here,
take a tablespoonful in a glass Of
water before breakfast for a few days
and your kidneys will then act fine.
This famous salts is made from the
acid Of grapes and lemon Juice, com
bined with iitilia, and is harmless to
flush clogged kidneys and stimulate
them to normal activity. It also neu.
tralizes the acids In the urine so il
no longer irritates, thus ending blad'
der disorders.
Jad Salts is harmless; inexpensive;
makes a delightful effervescent lithia,
water drink which everybody should
take now and then to keep their kid
neys clean, thus avoiding serious com
plications.
A well-known local druggist says he
sells lots of Jad Salts to folks who be

AGE or PIGEONS IMPORTANT
Essential TO Have Nothing but Mated
Birds Ia Loft and Those From
Guaranteed Hardy Stock.
lBy C. GRAHAM.)

=
Pigeons are considered to be at their
prime when three years old. ana there
are very few pairs that pay for their
feed after they are seven years old.
They depreciate in value with age.
The females are, as a rule, more
delicate than the males in both old and
young pigeons, and when buying young
birds the purchaser is quite likely to
find among them many more males
than females. Not only is 1t essential
to have nothing but mated birds in the
loft, but they should be from good
hardy stock. Some breeders have been
known to force their stock to such an
extent that they have lowered Its
vitality. Others are surrounded by
such conditions that it is impossible
to produce good, vigorous birds. while

number OF valuable breeds from which
he can make a selection. 1t is not SO
much the breed selected that will lead
to success as It is the care and man
agement. It must be noted, however,
that certain breeds have wider
range OF adaptability and are more
popular than others The number Of
pure4bred fiocks is increasing every
year and the demand for good breed
ing stock Is more than keeping pace
with the increase. Pure-bred stock
has a number of advantages over
grades. The natural or inherent adj
vantages of pure-bred stock arise
from the fact that there has been a
concerted effort in the development OF
the better breeds to establish, inten-
sify, and perpetuate their superior
qualities by using only the best ami
mails for breeding purposes. There
have been some exceptions to this,
some inferior animals have been en-
tered, but the formation Of a breed
has in general been based upon SUI
periority in some form. Nevertheless,
owing to the temperance Of inferior
individuals, not All pure-bred sheep
are suitable to retain in the flock.
A breeder Of pure-bred sheep can
develop a reputation that never could
be acquired with grades. The sales Of
pedigree breeding stock extend over
a much wider range Of territory than
those Of market stock. The show
ring also spreads abroad the fame of
the breeder of pure-bred stock. Larg-
er prices are obtained for pure-bred
ewes and rams when sold for breeding
purposes. although it costs little more
to produce them after the flock is
once established There is also more
stability in their values than In those
