Roup Can Be Prevented
by Providing Dry House

Roup can be prevented by keeping
the poultry in dry, well ventilated
houses and feeding balanced rations
Under such conditions II case ap-
pears the bird should be killed and
burned or buried deeply, says writer
IN Successful Farming. Treating a
case Of roup is very discouraging.
The bird with roup is suffering ex-
IRENE prostration and the discharges
from the disease have a repulsive odor.
This odor is the factor that determines
whether the hen has roup or a simple
cold.
II hen has cold 1t is only few
steps to case Of roup. Isolate hens
with running eyes and treat them with
one Of the coal tar disinfectants or
Commercial roup remedy. Place per-
manganate Of potash In the drinking
water to keep the disease from spread
ing Color the water a deep red. Never
return a bird with a cold to the flock
until she is thoroughly cured and looks
Ike healthy, vigorous specimen.
We know Of one case where hen
was treated for roup and then liber-
ated before a cure had resulted. In
about week, eight other hens in the
flock were sick with the disease, and
after another week of fussy unpleas-
ant doctoring, all Of the sick hens had
to be killed to protect the remainder
Of the flock
hen which has had a severe cold
should be banded so she will not be
Included in the breeding pens the next
year. When the disease has progressed
until 1t results in roup the bird il
weakened and more subject to repeti-
ton of the disease. This trouble Is
so serious when once started that the
owner Of a good flock Of poultry must
not hesitate TO sacrifice the best-look-
Ing hen in the flock II she contracts
the disease. It is necessary to protect
the balance of the flock and prevent
serious financial loss.

BEAUTY OF GRATITUDE
BY FRANK HERBERT SWEET
THANKSGIVING nav sbor,a

THANKSGIVING DAY should
4 be the keynote Of the year.
No one is really thankful who
is not really happy.
Praise spoken by the lips is
very faint and hollow unless the
heart re-echoes 1t.
Thanksgiving Is a home day.
The young person who accepts
the invitation of friends for some
form OF merrymaking which
takes one from the family circle
makes a mistake. There are
enough days IN the year for the
ordinary good times. Save
Thanksgiving for the home folks.
The girl or boy who looks on
thankfulness as q hard duty is
not likely to make much Of a
success of II. The beauty of
gratitude Is that It should be
spontaneous. bubbling up In the
heart Ike spring. not pumped
up to the surface with an effort
that leaves one out of breath.
&c. 1924. Western Newspaper Union.)

Tiny minstrel calls and faint replies
In the trees autumnal winds have stirred,
Revealing the glory of sundown skies.

THE CHIMNEY. PLACE

Tonight I'd like to tilt my chair
Against the chimney place,
And watch the fire CLINT mothers hair
And glorify her face.
I'd like to see her gingham-gowned,
AS gracefully she swings
From stove to table, bustling round,
Arranging supper things.
I'd like to see the cupboard white,
The broom behind the door,
The hit-and-miss rag carpet bright
Upon the kitchen floor.
To see that childhood treasure-trove-
The crowded paper rack
And on its nail beside the stove
The yellow almanac.
I'd like to hear, when twilight comes,
The jingle of the spoons,
A-chord with mother as she huns
The happy, cradle tunes.
All mixed with this, I'd like to hear
The brown old clock strike five,
And watch her pause and turn her ear
For hoofs upon the drive.
I'd like to hear the CHEEKY squeak
Of wheels far down the road,
When father guides across the creek
The wabbling two-horse load.
I'd like to meet him at the bars
And drive back home once more,
Where mother, with her eyes like stars,
Stands waiting at the door.

EXCUSES

Oh, there never was a failure but could
readily explain
How disaster overlook him and his
efforts all were vain,
And the tramp upon the highway and the
beggar on the street
Can give dozen causes and excuses for
defeat.
The crook that lands in prison says he
never had chance
And can justify his downfall through
the web of circumstance;
The deserter and the quitter and the
coward and the cheat
Have excuses for their conduct which
they readily repeat
When duty crosses pleasure, when we've
tried to win and lost
We dread the blame and censure and we
fear to pay the cost
So we offer explanations which shall hide
the wrong we do
And we hope the world will take them,
but we know that they're untrue.
The excuse is always handy, it is always
standing by
To hurry us to failure and to stop us
when we'd try,
1t makes quitting very easy, tor 1t whis-
pers whats the use
Of fighting to the finish when you've
got good excused"
Son of mine, beware excuses. They are
always waiting near
To betray you into folly and their words
are sweet to hear
They will counsel easy living till your real
chance is gone,
But there are no good excuses, so be
deaf to every one.
