FEEDING BABY CHICKS.

Never feed the chicks until
they. are about thirty-six hours
old. Nature has provided the
chicks first feed in the form Of
the yolk Of the egg which is alb
sorbed by the chick just before
Matching. IF you feed too soon
you may cause dysentery which
will result in numbers dying or
becoming stunted.
Feed the chicks regularly five
times a day until they are ten
days old. 1t is well to alternate d
scratch or grain feed and a soft
feed such as johnny cake.
The two best feeds for baby
chicks available on the farm are
sour milk and Johnny cake. The
sour milk contains elements ne
cessary to promote rapid growth
and in addition possesses medici-
nal value. Johnny cake is another
good growing feed. It is made We
ry much like egg bread. Use l ta-
blespoon soda to A cups meal and
3 eggs (infertile eggs may be
utilized with enough sour milk
to make a stiff batter. Bake well.
Feed the Johnny cake crumbly
and the milk as a drink. The
grain feed may consist of equal
parts of cracked corn and oat-
meal, mixture of small grains
or a good commercial chick feed.
Neither of these can be substitu-
ted for the sour milk or Johnny
cake. Sprouted oats or any ten
der green feed available is good
for the baby chicks. Never let
the water pail get dry, as fresh
water is very essential. Remem-
Der that the first four weeks Of
the chicks life is the most ra-
pid period of growth. Feed plen-
ty but don't overfeed as by do
ing so you may cause disastrous
results. 1t would be safer to un-
derfeed than overfeed. And at
last but not least-Remember sa-
nitation is half the fight in sue
cessfully raising chicks.

European Press
Is Investigated.

The European Press" " mention
of which was made in these CO.
lumns last week, and to which
possibly we were the first to call
the attention in this section, if
not in this country, is now under
fire. The matter through expo
sure has reached the post office
department, and if it can be de-
MED the use Of the mails, if it
proves guilty, and to be the pro-
paganda it appears to be, it will
be barred. We have not been ad-
vised as yet as to the decision
reached.
We are also informed that on
the strength of our statement
last week the local post, Ferdi-
nand Lefort Post, American Lee
gion of Honor, of this town, is al
so investigating the matter with
a view of having it barred from
the mails, and removing its evil
if it proves to be what
it is suspected to be.

OIL STOVES.

That the oil stove is becoming
a most serious fire hazard, is evi-
denced by the number Of fires ira
ceable to it. During the past 80
days there were recorded in the
Department of the Louisiana
State Fire Marshal for the City
of New Orleans alone, SO fires III
rectly traceable to oil heaters and
stoves. In practically all of these
cases, the oil used was inspected
by the chief oil Inspector Of the
state, the oil found to answer all
flashing point requirements.
That there is some serious de-
feet in the construction of reser-
voirs can not be doubted, and
with view of ascertaining the
full inspection of the various
makes of heaters and stoves.
1t has been found that in a
great many instances, the bottom
of the heaters were soldered. The
material used appears to be soft
and exceptionally susceptible to
heat the bottoms fall out and pre-
cipitate burning oil over the
flooring, Immediately causing one
of the most dangerous of fires.
An effort is being made to have
manufacturers either braze the
bottoms or, make solid reser-
voirs. 1t is hoped that this will
result in at least minimizing the
nomber Of fires from such cause

Big Fight Was
On Sugar First,

The bone of contention when
the emergency tariff, the Ford
ney Bill, was referred back to the
'Hou-e for consideration and con-
.curTelce by the Senate, that bo-
dy having tackled on numerous
amendments, was sugar, wheat
and other commodities, but prln-
cipally sugar The antagonism to
sugar shown by the Republicans,
as well as by the Democrats was
the feature of the wrangle, and
threatened to destroy all chan
ces of the bill reaching President
Wilson. Regardless of whether
the President signed it or not.
there were those inCongress who
rather than admit or concede
a tariff of any kind to sugar pre-
ferred losing the bill, or any
chance of passing it. Sugar is ar
orphan in Washington, kicked
and cuffed about at will.

Chronic Constipation.

There are people who never have a
movement of the bowels without it is
produced by a cathartie. Most of
them have brought that condition on
themselves by the use of mineral wa
ters and strong cathartics that
take too much water out Of. the system
and aggravate the disease they are
meant to relieve. A mild laxative tonic
like Chamberlain's Tablets acords a
gentle movement of the bowels that
you hardly realize has been produced
