4 Safe Test

For those who are in need Of remedy
for kidney troubles and backache, it is
a good plan to try Doan's Kidney Pills.
They are strongly recommended by
Mount Holly people.
Mrs. Charles H. Jenness, I35 West
Washington street, Mount Holly, says:
kidney and bladder trouble caused me
much suffering and had fainting and
dizzy spells. / tried several kinds of
kidney medicine without benefit until
I got Doan's Kidney Pills. Theys re-
1ieved me from the first and soon restor-
ed me to good health.''
Mrs. Jenness gave the the above state
ment on May 8, 1911, and on October 4.
1910, she added: 81 have remained free
from kidney trouble since being cured
by Doan's Kidney Pills. am still a
firm believer in this remedy and am
pleased to again give it my endorse
ment."

: Charcoal is not food and may not
be a panacea for all poultry ills, but
it is a valuable aid to digestion and
corrective of digestive troubles, says
correspondent of the Farm and Fire
side. 1t is good for poultry OF any
age. 1t may be mixed with the mash,
wet Or dry, or fed in hoppers so that
the birds may help themselves. II
Is especially valuable In fattenlng or
forced feeding. Experiments with fat.
tening fowls and turkeys have shown
that those having charcoal made much
greater gains than those not receiving
it. Finely graduated is the most con-
venient and desirable form for feeding
1t. Although supply houses usually
charge a pretty good price for it In
small quantities, it Is comparatively
inexpensive when bought by the BAG
or barrel. Bones or corn is sometimes
charred for poultry, but this is mex
pedient except on a small scale.

NEW MIRACLES or STEEL.
What the Laboratory Has Done For the
Automobile Maker.


Writers Of historical fiction perpet-
uate the notion that the art of the
old armorer has persisted. And yet in
cars sold for only few hundred dol
lars axles and crank shafts are to be
found infinitely superior in texture to
the weapons Of famous swordsmiths.
The tales of supple yet tough blades
that could be bent into circles without
swapping are eclipsed in the less art
fully phrased reports Of tests conduct
ed with crank shaft steel in the metal
lurgtcal laboratory of any large auto
mobile factory.
Could the old swords be twisted
through six complete turns before they
broke? An axle shaft can be so twist
ed. What was the tensile strength Of
the mace that Godfrey of Bouillon or
Richard of the Lion Heart welded?
How far, In other words, could it have
been stretched lengthwise before it
parted? No one knows.
But the automobile metallurgist is
respect Of a modern valve stem-a
slim little member that can be extend
ed half its length In testing machine
before it snaps In two.
AS soon as the metallurgist discover
ed that the properties Of steel could be
subtly changed by the addition of very
small quantities of such elements as
chromium, carbon, manganese, Nickel
tungsten or vanadium-as soon, In 9th
er words, as the problem Of making
the automobile durable and safe had
been solved by research-the designer
ventured to consider the economics of
motoring. Heavy automobiles endure,
but they consume much fuel, and they
wear out expensive tires very rapidly.
Light automobiles are more cheaply
maintained. And so new demands
were made on the laboratory in the
effort to save weight without sacrific-
ing strength or safety
Is a gear required with teeth on the
outside as hard as tool steel and yet
with a core that shall be soft and
tough, a gear that shall not weigh
more than q given number of ounces?
The metallurgist Is asked not only to
discover the formula for a steel out of
which a part can be made and which
must be examined with the microscope
to detect the wear to which it has
been subjected after having run 10000
miles, but also to indicate the methods
that must be followed by the furnace
men In heat treating the metal
Without the laboratory the designer
would be helpless. There would be
little progress from year to year.-Wal-

SWINE ON PASTURE.
Hogs Require Some Grain to Make
Economical Gains.

Hogs Require Some Grain to Make
Economical Gains.
Hogs on pasture require grain for
greatest profits in pork production, but
full feed is not economical when
pasture is plentiful and grain high
priced. When corn alone is fed a
limited ration is considerably cheaper
because the forage crop takes the place
of much Of the grain.
Hogs fed all the grain they would
eat made more rapid but less economi-
cal gains In feeding tests at the Ohio
Agricultural Experiment station. They
can be marketed sooner, however,
which often is an advantage to farm
ers.
Some protein feed. such as tankage
or skimmilk, is recommended to be fed
in small quantity along with corn and
pasture to pigs weighing less than 100
pounds. Pork production is usually too
expensive when such feeds are given to
large hogs, especially If they are on
such pasture as alfalfa, clover, rape or
soy beans, all Of which are high In
protein.

Dare of Horses.

Frequent currying and brushing Will
insure a healthy condition of the horse.
A few minutes spent daily in currying

Aside from giving the animal a clean,
glossy appearance, this daily brushing
stimulates circulation. The skin is an
important excretory organ and must
be kept clean and free to do its work.
In the spring the horses should be
kept especially clean, as the long hours

CROOKED FIDDLER SOUGHT.
Failed to Return Change of 45 After
 Selling OilclOtl1.

Police detectives are securing the city in an attempt to locate an oil- cloth peddler and prod his memory relative to the return of change to purchasers. Mrs. Ida Wesker of SS Smalley street is responsible for tho search, complaint having been made at police headquarters yesterday af- ternoon relative to her experience She says that the peddler called at the house and tried to sell her a roll of oilcloth for $10. This seemed ex- cessiv6 and she refused to pay that sum. She offered $5 and 1t was ap- parently accepted. She had only a BIO bill and offered 1t with a provision that the change be returned as soon as the merchant could visit a nearby store.
 An hour went by and no peddler or change returned. Suspicious that there would be none, she hastened to police headquarters and told her tale of woe to Desk Officer A. c. Malone Detective A. J.

TOWN FARM NEEDS MANY MORE HANDS
Chairman Riley Seeks Co-opera-
 tien of Police Court

| Chairman Frank Riley of the char ity department is to endeavor to se- l cure the cooperation of Judge James T. Meskill in sending recruits to the town farm agriculturists. Superin- tendent George Kibbe states that all is in readiness at the town farm on Rocky Hill avenue to raise record crops, but 1t is almost impossible l., secure help. The regular inmates who have been at the home all winter are now preparing to leave to work elsewhere during the summer months and \many of those who are left are
 physically incapable of doing hard
 work. To relieve the situation Chair
 man Riley hopes to get the co-opera-
 tion of the court. Already Judge Mes-
 kill has sent number of men to the
 town farm instead of to jail. AL
 though the court does not sentence the men to work on the farm. jail
 sentences is imposed and the prisoner is given his choice of going to Hart ford and be kept In durance vile or of going on probation and working at the town farm. If Chairman Riley's views are shared by the court many
 more employees will arrive there short iy. The chairman of the board thinks 1t may be necessary to engage a guard to supervise the forced laborers while they work and has suggested the hir- ing of one or two Home Guardsmer or City Guardsmen to act in this ca pacity and prevent any of the labor CTS from taking French leave.
 Expect Increased Crops.
 MT. Riley has been informed by Su- perintendent Kfbbe that a larger crop than usual of corn, beans, potatoes and grain will be raised on the town
 farm and the hay crop will be mate
 rially lessened inasmuch as the city
 will not require any hay for fire de-
 partment horses. Already MT. Riley
 has ordered 100 bushels of seed pota- toes for use at the town farm and now finds that he needs 100 bushels more MT. Riley hopes to be able to secure a more advantageous price. This year practically all available land at the town farm will be cultivated II help can be secured
