TO GET EGGS DURING WINTER
Comfortable Houses Must Be Provided
to Secure Most Profitable Re-
turns From Hens.

Times have changed since chickens
roasted out on the trees and fences.
Once in while you may see such
farms where hens are permitted to
follow this old way of foraging. But
as rule every hen must pay profit
or she goes to market and at an early
age too. Hens are measured by the
number of eggs they lay instead Of by
the number of pounds they weigh. Ex-
pensive houses are not necessary but
must be comfortable to insure proper
egg laying. A house should accom-
modate as many hens as space calls
for without crowding; about two
square feet of floor space per hen Is
about right. This keeps up the tenn
perature in cold nights and still gives
scratching room to insure egg produc-
tion.

GIVE SOUR MILK TO CHICKS
Found Beneficial in Cases of White
Diarrhea by Professor kaupp
of North Carolina.

When white diarrhea attacks flock
of young chicks many of them die,
while those that survive are more or
less stunted. Feeding freely on sour
milk has been found beneficial. If sour
milk does not act against the disease
it at least gives the chicks greater
strength and vitality SO they are not
seriously affected if attacked.
In some tests by Professor Kaupp
of North Carolina be found that chicks
fed on sour milk quickly recovered
when attacked and the loss was only
10 to 16 per cent. In similar lot,
handled and fed the same except for
the milk, the loss was "a per cent the
first month, while the remainder were
in such weakened condition that at
the end of eight weeks sc per cent had

1t is cruel to force nauseating,
harsh physic into a

Remember the dose" mother insisted
on-castor oil, calomel, cathartics.
How you hated them, how you fought

With our children it's different.
Mothers who cling to the old form of
physic simply don't realize what they

ed. Their tender little "insides' are
injured by them.

bowels need cleansing, give only deli

action is positive, but gentle. Millions
Of mothers keep this harmless fruit

love to take it; that it never fails to
clean the liver and bowels and sweet

PLYMOUTH ROCK is POPULAR
Breed as First Originated Was Of
Barred Variety-White is Hardy
and Adapted to Farms.

The most popular of all American
breeds Of poultry is the Plymouth
Rock. This breed as first originated
was of the Barred variety, which is
yet the most popular of all the colors.
Early in the breeding of Barred Ply
mouth Rocks fanciers reported the APP
pearance of white chicks. They were
"spOrts" and some We're bred together,
producing the present variety of White
Plymouth Rocks. They have attained
great popularity, widely bred, both for
utility and fancy, and have proven
perfectly satisfactory in either capac-
ity.
They are hardy and especially adapt
ed to farms. The hens lay large dark
brown eggs of a grade much sought
in certain localities.
The chicks are vigorous, strong and
active, and grow exceptionally fast on
range, reaching maturity at from five
and One-half to six and One-half
months old. They are readily salable
for the highest grade of market poul-
try at all ages from broiler size to
full maturity, and are very popular
in some sections for the production of
capons.
Males weigh from to II pounds,
females to 10 pounds, and are prob

These are samples of what Henry
M. Flaglers engineers told the old
Standard Oil millionaire.

RailrOaders laughed and his family
saw visions of wasted fortune. But
what is the result?
Why, "Flaglers folly" cannot handle
the Cuban business which northern
railroads are sending it.
Edward H. Hartman also built a

Straight as an arrow the Union Pa

81 miles, eliminated the expense of

scored was his attempt to buy the
Northern Pacific where it seemed that
he had cinch.

ENGINES NEED MUCH WATER
Under Normal Conditions Locomotive
Consumes From Thirty to Thirty
Five Gallons Per Mile.

Locomotives are exceedingly bibu-
lOus creatures. An express engine I'M
der normal conditions of running will
consume from 80 to 35 gallons and
freight engine from 45 to so gallons
of water for every mile covered, TAX
ing general average.
On such journey as that made by
the Cornish Riviera" from London to
Plymouth, 226 miles-the longest daily
nonstop run in the world-Some four
tons of coal are consumed against an
average of no less than 40 tons of
water.
Therefore, it is necessary for en-
gines on long nonstop runs to pick up
water by scoop from track trOughS
while travelling at full speed. The
troughs have usually a length of just
over a quarter of mile, and are laid
perfectly level in the center of the
''four-foot." Water is taken from
them by means of movable shovel
shaped scoop" under the tender,
which is lowered into the trough as
the train passes over it at full speed.
The sharp edges of this scoop cut
off, as it We're, the "top layer" of the
water, which is forced up into q large
vertical pipe and delivered through
mushroom head or an elbow, at the
top of the tender into the water tank
AS soon as the water gauge on the
tender indicates that the tank is full
the scoop is raised again, and as a
very considerable effort is needed to
lift it up against the pressure of the
water, arrangements are usually made
to operate the scoop by power-either
compressed air or steam.
According to the speed at which the
train is travelling it is possible to lift
from 1000 to 5000 gallons in about

POCKET PICKING ON TRAINS
In Former Years Railroad Trains Were
Favorite Places of Operation for
Pickpockets.

Pocket picking was one of the most
prevalent forms of crime half CEN
fury ago. Whether this was because
of the easier access to pockets which
the costumes of the time afforded or
to greater skill on the part of the art
full dodgers of that day is not to be
determined. A favorite place of OPP
GRAFTON was the railroad trains, where
on the pickpockets piled their art
persstently. In the Washington Star
of February 81, 1867, is a paragraph on
this subject:
During a month past the railroads

upon the trains between Washington
and Baltimore number of the light

were put off the train at Annapolis
Junction, and q number of others were
seen. The southern trains from this
city were infested by them for time
during the winter, and several losses
