The next in order is what is designat-
ed as philadelphia" and this en-
braces turkeys, chickens, fowls, geese
and ducks. Pennsylvania has been oc-
cupied by thrifty class of German
immigrants, who early provided good
poultry, especially in Bucks county of
that state, which furnished the supply
of the citizens Of Philadelphia.
Visitors to that city, attracted by the
excellent poultry with which they were
served, substituted for Bucks county"
philadelphia, and so it has become
the term for all varieties of Pennsylva-
MIA poultry sent out of the state.
Northward progression of the descrip-
ton of famous poultry next halts at
Rhode Island There the poulterers
have selected the largest of the cult
waited strains, which attain the weight
of twenty-five to thirty pounds the
first year and fifty pounds and up
ward the second year. Massachusetts
has it's claim to the production of high
class poultry also on file, and to tur-
keys it adds geese, of which in New
York, where all qualities and standards
are passed upon and determined, the
excellence is conceded.
Large size, tenderness of flesh, pal
atableness of flavor, are all included
and, though Rhode Island, Philadel-
phia and Maryland each and all insist
that their geese cannot be eXcelled, the
city epicures decide for Boston's claim
by their insistence for that supply to
the limit of it's extent.

A Plain Americans
Thanksgiving

Having lived more than a half cen
early settlers, and having given to my
children the message of hope received
from my parents, 1 am qualified to
express publicly a word of thanksgiv-
ing, says correspondent Of the New
York Evening Post. Inseparable in my
mind are our Father, my country. my
home, my neighbor. Thus apply:
'Ehe Lord is my Shepherd; l shall
not want.
"He maketh me to lie down in green
pastures; he leadeth me beside the still
waters.
He restoreth my soul; he leadeth me
in the paths of righteousness for his
names sake.
"Yea. though 1 walk in the valley of
the shadow of death, will fear no
evil, for thou art with me; thy rod and
thy staff they comfort me.
Thou preparest table before me in
the presence of mine enemies; thou
anointest my head with oil; my cup
runneth over
Surely goodness and mercy shall fol
low me all the days of my life. and l
will dwell in the. house of the Lord
forever
And America, like the good wife in
Proverbs, ''shall do me good and not
evil all the days of my life
My country, tits of thee.
Sweet land of liberty, -. =
Of thee I sing
Here more than elsewhere on earth
Is practiced that sum of knowledge.
Love one another
America, I. thank, love, serve thee.
Why honor is mine Ny best, my all,
are thine
Americas best is yet to be.

There are. several sources Of produc-
ton of ultra superior turkeys, for each
of which it is claimed that it holds the
palm of excellence. AS the reputation
for luxurious living in this country be-
gan in the south, it will be well to COM
mence with a description of the rice
fattened birds Of Maryland. They are
distinguished for delicacy of flesh and
flavor which are impaired by their eX-
clusively rice diet, and their skin is
remarkably white, as compared with
that Of other poultry, which is also at
tributed to the character of feeding.
There are certain epicures who will
partake of no other turkeys while
maryland rice feds are procurable

WHEN ALMA PEOPLE
Publicly Testify, It's Evidence Not to
Be Ignored.

When residents of Alma are willing
to recommend Doan's Kidney Pills i'm
this paper, is there any good reason
to try kidney backache or bladder
remedy that is not as we'll recon-
mended?
Mrs. j. +. Sartor, POI Lincolrp Ave,
Alma, says: "The first symptom of
kidney trouble that | had was pain in
my back. Then had headaches and
dizzy spells. The kidney action was
irregular and gave me a lot of an
noyance. Nothing did me any good
until | got Doan's Kidney Pills at
Rhodes Drug Store. They relieved
the ailments. My kidneys got nor
NAL and the pains left. That happen
ed two years ago and | gave a state
ment telling what they had done for
me at that time. Since then | have
used Doan's Kidney Pills off and on
and they have kept my kidneys in
good shape"

NO INTOXICATED CHAUFFEURS

The demand of the Michigan Grange
that a man once found intoxicated at
the wheel of an automobile have his
automobile license revoked and be
severely punished if found driving a
machine afterward is perhaps unduly
severe. Yet the principle is right.
No man not in the full possession of
his faculties should be permitted to
drive an automobile upon the public
highways, where the danger of acct
dent always exists. The motor car
has too great possibilities for injury.
The man who is habitually not master
of himself is totally unqualified to
act as chauffeur. He should not be
permitted to endanger the lives of
others. No drunken engineer is toll
Grated upon railroad; neither should
an intoxicated chauffeur be tolerated
on the streets, where he is likely to
run down others. We have too many
automobile accidents. One way to re-
duce them would be by a more care
full supervision of those who operate
cars, with a view to eliminating all
who for any reason are incompetent to
drive.

ANTHRACNOSE NOW DECLARED
NO BAR TO SALE OF BEANS
Reputed Order Branded Misunder-
standing by Secretary Houston.

The bean situation presents another
illustration of the error into which
many may be led by statements sent
out from Washington and accepted as
correct by the daily press. The state
ment that the Federal authorities pro-
posed to put ban on the sale of
beans affected by anthracnose was APP
parently accepted as correct by Gov
ernor Ferris and other authorities.
Now Secretary Houston declares that
the matter is wholly misunderstood.
Some canned beans were seized and
condemned as unfit Yor food. No OBJ
lection will be made 20 the use of an
thracnose beans for canning purposes,
provided they are properly put up and
no Objectionable ingredients combined
with them
We trust this statement may be
found correct and that the next re-
port from Washington will not have
an entirely different version of the
matter.

HOW FRENCH PEOPLE CURE
STOMACH TROUBLE

A household remedy of the French
peasantry, consisting of pure vege-
table oil, and said to possess wonder
full merit in the treatment of stomach,
liver and intestinal troubles has been
introduced in this country by George
II. Mayr, who for twenty years has
been one of the leading downtown
druggists of Chicago and who himself
was cured by its use. So quick and
effective is its action that a single
dose is usually enough to bring pro-
nounced relief in the most stubborn
cases, and many people who have tried
it declare they never heard of any
thing to produce such remarkable re-
suits in so short time. II is known
as Mayr's Wonderful Remedy and can
now be had at all leading drug stores.

cents a hundred pounds for the skim
milk, it would be worth $SS2.05. The
latter return would involve little cost
of handling.
Carlotta Pontiac's three year record
perhaps has not been equalled by any
other COW in Missouri. She is still
producing milk, having given birth to
a heifer calf three weeks ago. How
ever, she is not on test now. The
production of Carlotta Pontiac is made
possible by her breeding. A record
made by her three years ago was
broken year later by her ungrateful
sister.
Like other COWS in the dairy herd at
the University, Carlotta eats grain,
corn silage, and alfalfa hay. OF the
silage and hay she has all she will eat.
With the grain she gets cottonseed
meal and bran.
Carlotta's home is large box stall
of iron bars with straw for bed. The
only favor that she has which is not
shared by other cows in the herd is
that her door is fastened with an ex-
ira button on the outside. For time
she enjoyed the privilege of lifting the
latch of her door and walking out
without the permission of her keeper.
When the keeper leaves her now,
button and stands resigned to her i'm
prisonment. But let stranger leave
the stall, Oarlotta suspects his ignor-
ance of her methods and tries to lift
the latch. Often she is successful.
