TO RAISE HEALTHY CHICKENS
Lack Of vioor in Newly Hatched
Chicks Is Often Traceable to
Weakness Of Parents.

[Prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture.)
To be successful in raising chickens
it is necessary to have healthy and
vigorous breeding stock, for the lack
of vigor in the newly hatched chicks
is often traceable to weak parents.
Only the most vigorous and the best
grown birds should be put in the
breeding yards. Each bird should be
full of life and energy and free from
any serious deformity. Yearling hens
are usually better than pullets for
breeders, for the reason that the hens
are more mature and do not lay so
many eggs during the early winter,
and consequently do not reduce their
vitality so much before the breeding
season. Vigorous hens 2 to 4 years
old can often be advantageously
retained in the breeding yard. The
male bird chosen should be young and
active. An early hatched. well-devel-

have been expected, shown themselves
particularly proficient in agriculture
and cattle breeding. Crying evils in
the administration of the lands have
been nointed out in the public press,

to be sufficiently interested in remedy

dip that chick!" 1t isn't done just
for the sake Of making a rhyme for
"dip that TICK" either. Dipping chick
ems is likely to become more general
than dipping cattle, because the
chicken louise is more widely distrib.
uted insect than the cattle tick. The
''dip" consists Of 1 ounce of sodium
fluoride to the gallon Of water, which
should be at temperature Of 20 to IS
degrees. The dipping should be done
on clear, warm day-never on a
cold day. The old way of getting rid
of chicken lice was by busting with
dry sodium fluoride. 1t was effective,
but in the case of large flocks it was
slow and wasteful, great deal of the
busting material being inevitably lost.
Recent dipping experiments proved
successful, and the results promise a
sure and speedy means of getting rid
of one of the worst pests of poultry.

IF KIDNEYS ACT
BAD TAKE SALTS
Says Backache Is Sign You
Have Been Eating Too
Much Meat

When you wake up with backache
and dull misery in the kidney region
it generally means you have been
eating too much meat, says we'll
known authority. Meat forms uric
acid which overworks the kidneys in
their effort to filter it from the blood
and they become sort of paralyzed
and loggy. When your kidneys get
sluggish and clog you must relieve
them, like you relieve your bowels !;
removing all the body's urinous
waste, else you have backache, sick
headache, dizzy spells; your stomach
sours, tongue is coated, and when the
weather is bad you have rheumatic
twinges. The urine is cloudy, full
Of sediment, channels often get sore,
water scalds and you are obliged to
seek relief two or three times during
the night.
Either consult a good, reliable
physician at once or get from your
pharmacist about four ounces of Jad
Salts; take tablespoonful in a glass
Of water before breakfast for a few
days and your kidneys will then act
fine. This famous salts is made from
the acid Of grapes and lemon juice,
combined with lithia, and has been
used for generations to clean and
stimulate sluggish kidneys, also to
neutralize acids in the urine so it no
longer irritates, thus ending bladder
weakness.
Jad Salts is a life saver for regular
meat eaters. It is inexpensive, can
not injure and makes a delightful,
