Ill, under the Act Of March 9. 1879.
AN UNPLEASANT SUBJECT
Cruelty is always revolving. That is
one reason why nice people refuse
to discuss it. And 50 cruelty per-
sists.
But when it can be reckOned' as a
loss to any community in dollars and
cents, cruelty becomes a suitable
topic of conversation. Thus the
"over cropped chicken suddenly ap-
pears an object of deserved com
miseratiOn.
"Over cropped" does not mean
much to the average housewife, but
to the fowl it means torture-by
thirst and by a diet of hot pepper,
gravel, grit and oyster shells mixed
with a little bran. This stuff added
100000 pounds to the weight Of
the fowls sold in New York last year,
and for it New York consumers paid
$7,OOO,OOO, according to testimony
brought out in an inquiry conducted
by John J. Dillon, commissioner of
foods and markets.
Evidently, this very unpleasant
theme is one with which every house
keeper should be conversant. A grav-
el diet stops the digestion of chick
en-, the meat is poisoned, and it is
then a menace to the lives of con-
sumeTs.
New York's health department and
its commissioner of foods and mar
kets have power to revoke the license

on the ground that 1t is a practice
detrimental to public welfare.
Every community should have
law of this kind; and the clubwOmen
of any town should be able to get
such an ordinance made, very easily
and quickly, on grounds of human
ity, economy and health protection.
WHAT WILL YOU NAME THE

We know a young couple who
called their first-boTn job (They
have a rich relative who glOries in
the same name)
We know of a middle-aged fat
woman who writhes under the name
of Tiny. (Really, can you beat it?)
When you name the baby remem-
Der that the name is going to stick
for a lifetime.

Solicitor Spears and the other
court officials wisely decided
there should be no June court
in Chesterfield county this year.
This session of court always
comes in a very busy time, and
usually very little is done. The
farmers have more important
business to attend to and the
June court has been expensive

board, which is published else
where in this issue bears out our
contention that the management
of the Chesterfield & Lancaster
railway is trying to give the peo-
pie the very best service posi-
Bile under the circumstances.
Mr.. Bagwell's letter shows clear
ly that the road is willing to ac-

We are still of the opinion that
the road should be released from
This agreement. Then if the
management sees fit, the train
could be run just the same.

LAZY ANCESTORS Of
OUR MODERN FOWLS
Industrious Hen Of Today Lays
300 Eggs in Year, While
Jungle Bird Laid Twelve.
CBy c. 8. ANDERSON, Colorado.)

By c. 8. ANDERSON, Colorado.)
The Jungle fowl, from which all our
modern breeds of chickens have orig
mated, laid from twelve to fifteen
eggs a year when in its wild and nat
ural state. With years Of selection.
we have succeeded in developing from
this low-producing fowl a type Of bird
the chief function of which is egg pro-
duction. Our present-day Leghorns.
and carefully selected fowls Of several
other breeds, lay close to 300 eggs an
nually, and in the course Of lifetime
more than thousand.
An average hen Of the egg type
breeds will lay in years time five
times her body weight in eggs. TAX.
ing the standard weight of eggs as "a
ounces per dozen, this means an egg
every three days during the year. To
accomplish this the hen must consume
nearly thirty times her body weight in
feed.
The hen also has a market value
when she is no longer an egg producer
Comparing the total marketable prod
ucts returned for 100 pounds of digest
ible matter consumed, the hen ranks
second only to the cow among all oul
common farm animals.

HAVE COMFORTABLE
STALLS FOR HORSES
It Often Happens That Places
Where Animals Are Kept Are
Entirely Too Narrow.

A horse cannot talk and tell his
owner in the morning that he has
been uncomfortable during the night,
but II such is the case and the trouble
continues the effect will show In his
work, or more serious trouble may
follow. Sometimes the stalls are bad
ly constructed, made too narrow or
the horses feet wear holes which are
neglected.
One of the greatest evils is having
a stall too narrow. 1t may not have
been properly constructed In the first
place or perhaps has been made for
a small horse. If the barn changes
hands or is rented and larger horse
put in it, this horse may have diff.
Guilty in rising and so because Of his
dread of lying down on that account
remains on his feet longer than is good
for him. Again board or two may
become dislodged and not being re
placed at once occasions draft.
In a number Of barns that have
come under my observation too little
care has been used as to the situa
ton of the stalls. Quite often they
are placed on the north side of q
building owing to such position be
ing handler or not interfering with
other arrangements about the barn
Instead, it is best to have them or
the south side of building or If or
the north side they should have &
double wall. The stalls should be Of
sufficient size, the flooring should b.
level and the stalls themselves KEEP
In good condition.

drinking water where animals can
very well eat them and thus become
infected. The hog is particularly liable
to this disease because Of its roofing
habits. The eggs may get into hui
man food, and persons who allow
dogs to lick their hands and face also
run the risk Of getting the eggs OF the
tapeworm in their systems.
Prevention on the farm consists In
so restraining the dog that he cannot
get at carrion or raw viscera. Viscera
should be boiled before being fed to
dogs and should never be thrown on
the fields. II not cooked and fed, WIS.,
cera and carcasses should be burned,
buried with lime, or so disposed of as
not to be accessible to dogs. Proper
feeding of the dog is essential and the
owner who does not feed dog prop
erly has no right to keep one.
The parasite which causes gid In
sheep somewhat resembles the hyda-
It'd worm. A dog allowed to eat the
brain of a giddy sheep may swallow
this parasite and later distribute the
eggs of the resulting tapeworm over
the pasture. Sheep while grazing
swallow the eggs with the grass which
they eat. In the case Of sheep dogs
it is important to administer vermi-
fuges often enough to keep them free
of these worms. In the case Of sheep
measles, the bladder worm in the
meat, typical of this disease, is swal-
lowed by the dog and again the tape
worm eggs are passed by the dog to
grass or water and there are eaten
by sheep.
OF the external parasites which
dogs may carry to animals, fieas and
the various kinds of ticks are both
troublesome and dangerous. The
remedy is clear. The owner must
keep his dog clean, not merely for the
comfort and happiness of the dog, but
to prevent it from becoming carrier
of disagreeable and dangerous vermin.
|. These reasonable measures, impor-
tant to the stock on the farm, have q
direct connection with the health OF
the family. Where ringworm or other
skin diseases break out among the
children, or the worm parasites devel-
op, it is well to determine whether a
dirty or uncared-for dog may not be
carrying infection on his skin or hair,
or be conveying disease from carrion
directly to the food and persons OF his
friends. Even If no one is infected
with disease, the folly Of allowing a
dog to remain dirty and have the free
dom of home where personal clean
illness and hygiene are respected is ap
parent.

in getting by the snow in the Trough
