TREAT CHOLERA IN TURKEYS
All Fowls Which Show Symptoms OF
Disease Should Be Separated
Give Sulpho-Naphthol.

The word is used to cover number
OF intestinal disorders, but cholera is
q contagious germ disease and is prac-
tically incurable. Place all birds which
show any symptoms of the disease in
house remote from other poultry
buildings and one which can be easily
and thoroughly disinfected. Give the
birds a few drops of creolin or sulpho-
naphthol in their drinking water, just
enough to turn it family milky. Give
the birds a one-thousandth of a grain
tablet of corrosive sublimate every
three hours. Feed sparingly on soft
easily digested food. All badly affect
ed birds should be killed by blow on
the head without drawing blood, and
then burned.
Rake up and burn all litter used IN
the house and runs occupied by infect
ed birds. Spray the runs and all parts
of the building with creolin or sulpho-
naphthol solution, one tablespoonful to
two gallons of water. The runs should
also be plowed frequently.

SQUADS RAISED FOR MARKET
Birds Should Be Graded According to
Size and QuaIity-Pack in Cracked
Ice, Breasts Up.

Squads should be graded according
to size and quality, as dark-colored
and small squads tend to lower the
price paid for an entire shipment of
mixed squads. They are usually
packed for shipment in a good supply
of cracked ice, breasts up, with par
ATTN paper between each layer of ice
and squads. Some express companies
have a special rate for SQUAD ship.
ments, which should be secured wher-
ever possible. The express charges on
small shipments of squads reduce the
profit materially, making it difficult to
sell the squads from a small flock at
a profit if they have to be shipped to
commission men. As the period at
which a squad is right for market is
not over one week, it is necessary to
have a good-sized flock TO have over
one dozen squads ready for market at

one time. 4 local market which will
take any number of squads is great
aid to the small producer. Where one
has small flock it usually pays best
to build it up until it is large enough
to make good-sized shipments OF
SQUADS. This, however, requires con-
slant outlay without any return, for
some time.
The production of squads from each
pair of breeders varies from one or
two to as high as ten or eleven pairs a
year, but an average Of from six to
seven pairs is fair estimate, although
some SQUAD breeders do better than
this. Squads usually sell at the high
est prices during cold weather, as
pigeons do nGt breed as freely during
the winter as during the spring.

MESSAGES FROM THE SPIRITS
There Are Many Men of International
Fame Who Believe Communication
With Dead Is Possible.

! A writer in the New York Medi-
cal Record shows that whatever
might have been the views of scien-
lists preceding the nineteenth and
this part of the twentieth century
on the authenticity of surviving un-
corporal consciousness after physl-
cal death and interment, and inter-
communication between the living
and the dead, there are many OF IN
ternational fame who believe IN
these communications.
Among these he mentions Sir
Oliver Lodge, born in 1851, who IN
recent years has expressed his con-
viction that communication with
disembodied spirits is possible; Sir
William Crookes, The eminent
scientist, born in 1852, who has
found time to delve into the mys-
teries of spirit colloquy and has IN
Dictated his belief in the reality OF
occult phenomena; Sir William
, Fletcher Barrett, born in 1914, who
afirms his trust in the genuineness
of some spiritualistic demonstra-
tons; Camille Flammarion, the
French astronomer, born IN 1912,
and Cesare Lombroso, the Italian
criminologist, who died eight years
ago at the age of seventy-three.
The late Alfred Russell Wallace,
joint discoverer with Darwin OF the
Evolution of the Species" who died
four years ago at the age of ninety,
was an advocate of the belief that
messages may be reciprocally Ok
changed with spirits Of the departed.

SIGHTS FOR NIGHT FIGHTING.

Twelve hours do not make work
ing day on the fighting fronts. Even
though the grist of the days fight
ing has been heavy, the belligerents
sometimes battle far into the night.
This they are able to do with the
aid of rifles fitted with night-sights,
the invention of a British artillery
man, The invention consists of two
spring clips which can be quickly
fastened to the front and rear sights
of the British infantry rife. On the
spriag clips are painted strips OF
luminous paint which make two
rough sighting points by which to
direct the rife.-Popular Science.

PERMITTING RAM WITH EWES
Not Advisable to Let Him Run With
Flock Longer Than Six Weeks
to Prevent Accidents.

Never let the ram run with the ewes
any longer than six weeks, for he will
butt them around and cause them to
lose their lambs.
They will mostly all get with lamb
sooner than this, but it is best to keep
him in long enough to be sure.
