Bunyan Created Lakes

Elk and Torch lakes, the beau
tiful finger lakes that stretch par
allel for miles along the shore of
Lake Michigan near Elk Rapids,
date back to the days of Paul
Bunyan, according to the old lum-
berjacks. =
Michigan, they say was
scooped out by the mighty Paul,
to be used as a log pond. Instead
of skidding the logs into a stream
and floating them down to-. his
pond Paul would hitch onto, a
section of land and drag it over
to the lake, log off the timber;
and then haul the section back.
One day Paul hooked onto a
particularly heavy tinbered Sec
ton near. the Boardman. and
started Babe, the. blue OK, out to
haul it over to the lake, There
had been a heavy: rain,. tn e

Poultry Contracts Colds,
Other Disorders. !. !.

BY H. H. Alp, Extension Poultryman,
/. University of Illinois.-WNU Service.
Just as humans have more colds
and pneumonia during periods Of
damp weather, so damp poultry
houses during winter months favor
the development of roup, bronchitis
and other respiratory diseases of
chickens which affect the efficiercy
Of poultry production . =
One of theamost common causes Of
dampness in poultry houses is wet
litter. Wet litter is in turn caused by
too many birds in the house, floor
mixture and leaky roofs.
Birds are overcrowded in houses
having less than four square feet
Of floor space to each fowl. Unless
a poultry house is equipped with
mechanical ventilation, and few of
them are, crowded pens will soon
become damp.
Cement floors which have no sub
floor Of gravel, crushed stone or
similar material will usually sweat
sufficiently to make wet litter a.
problem. In some houses spillage
from water pals and poor surface
drainage are factors along with
leaky roofs.
In addition to these causes the
poultry flock itself voids and ex-
hales enough moisture to be fac
tor in the problem. If dropping
boards are left uncleaned for
two weeks, experiments have shown
that for each 100 birds there would
be approximately three to four bar
rels of water left in the house during
this period.
While it is impossible to keep
poultry houses absolutely dry, flock
owners can help by cleaning off the
dropping boards at least every other
day. Frequent changing Of the litter
is another chore generally justified
by the results obtained in more
efficient production.
Keeping windows open to provide
fresh air aids in keeping down damp
ness, and artificial heat is needed
in many instances. Many poultry
men have found that heat from
brooder stoves has helped in houses
where colds and roup have been
troublesome.

Good Management Brings
More Eggs, Expert Says


During the winter hens cannot
keep up high egg production un-
less they are properly managed,
according to c. F. Parrish, extern
sion poultryman at North Carolina
State college. Feeding, he points
out, is perhaps the most important
item. No hen can be expected to
40 her best unless fed the proper
grains, mashes, and green feeds.
Then the poultryman must pay
strict attention to the housing prob
lem. Poorly constructed and drafty
houses are not conducive to high
egg production. The houses must
be comfortable or the birds will suf-
fer and a consequent decline in the
number of eggs will be noted.
Inferior birds should be culled
from the flock. These poor produc-
ers, if allowed to remain, will bring
the average Of the flock down
sharply.

On every side today people are being
urged to dlkdlize their stomach. And
thus ease symptoms of ''acid indiges-

To gain quick alkalization, just do
this: Take two teaspoons Of PHIL

minutes after eating. OR - take two
Phillips Milk of Magnesia Tablets,
which have the same antacid effect.
Relief comes almost at once -
usually in few minutes. Nausea,

feel like new person.

UNITED STATES
WAR VETERANS
PLEA FOR PEACE

In today's edition of the Worcester
Democrat is published ballot" which
the readers of this newspaper are
asked to sign as personal appeal ad-
dressed to Congress, a plea to keep
America out of war. With the publ
cation of this ballot the Democrat is
cooperating with the Veterans of For
eign Wars of the United States in
national campaign to obtain the sig
natures of % million voters to be
presented to Congress as tangible evil
dence an overwhelming public de-
mand for peace. The appeal reads as
follows:
al hereby call upon Congress, and
the President of the United States,
to adopt and apply policies designed
to keep America out of war and sup
ported by a national defence program
adequate to preserve and protect our
country and its people,"
The Veterans of Foreign Wars OF
the United States has requested H.
600 newspapers and magazines thru
out the country to publish this ballot
as a means of reaching individual
citizens who may be denied the oppor-
tunity of signing petitions being cir
culated by local units of the Veterans
of Foreign Wars of the U. S. in $500
communities.
Confident that members of Con-
gress will be guided by the sentiments
of the people on the subject OF war;
Commander-in-C Chief Scott P. Squyres
of Oklahoma City, is directing the eff
forts of his organization in a cam
paign to secure the signatures of at
least a majority of the legal voters IN
each Congressional District. These
names, obtained through newspaper
ballots and by petitions, will be classl-
fled by states at national headquar-
tiers of the v. F. w. in Kansas City,
Missouri. At the close of the cam
paign, early in 1888, the petitions and
ballots will be shipped to Washington,
d. c., and presented to members OF
Congress in a peace demonstration on
the steps of the Capitol.
The "Peace-for-America" program
being promoted by the v. F. w. prl-
marily seeks to impress Congress with
States to protest its peaceful relations
that America must keep out of war.
simultaneously, the overseas veterans
who compose the membership of the
v. F. w., favor strong national de-
tense, one that will enable the United
States to protect its PEACEFUL relations
with all other powers.
Believing the readers of the Demo-
crat are heartily in accord with any
movement designed to avert war, this
ballot will be published at intervals
during the next few weeks whenever
space is available, in order to give
every person in this area an oppor-
tunity to register his personal plea for
peace.

GOVERNOR NICE
WANTS NOTICE OF
BIBLE SUNDAY

Governor Harry w. Nice urges the
churches of Maryland to observe Uni
versal Bible Sunday, Sunday, De-
cember IL.
The Protestant churches of the ma
ton will also unite Sunday in the
observance of Universal Bible Sunday.
They will remind the people of the
nation of the unrivalled place which
this great book has had in the making
of our nation and the nations of the
world. This year for the first time
the celebration is to include a nation
wide broadcast over the Columbia net
work at 1880 E. S. T. in which the
Secretary of State, the Honorable
Cordell Hull, and Mr.. John T. Man
son, president of the American Bible
Society, will speak. The celebration,
as formerly, is sponsored by the
American Bible Society by whose un-
interrupted activities, now in their
122nd year, approximately 285, 900 900
volumes of Scriptures have been dis
tributed in more than forty countries
and in 226 languages.
In endorsing Universal Bible Sun
day Governor Nice says: 81 should
like to commend the move to observe
Universal Bible Sunday on December
IL, because am thoroughly convinced
that the perpetuation of this Repub-
lie, depends upon the moral and ac-
tive support of our Christian men and
women. and I know of no better meth
cd of bringing to the attention of
our citizenry the Importance of Christ
ianty than through the medium of
urging upon them the reading of the
Holy Bible. 1t is one Book which has
endeared through time and which will
continue to be the guiding star of peo-
pies and nations. Without it's in

it brings to us, without the atmos-

Get Clear Picture.

FOR the sake of convenience that
entry list is split up by States.
The State entries then are itemized
again according to the cities, towns or
villages in which their clubs are
located.
In this way the U. S. G. A. analyz-
ers are provided with very clear pic
ture of just how the numerical
strength of the country's amateurs and
professionals is distributed. And that
numerical strength is one of three fac
tors taken into consideration when the
qualifying points are decided upon-so
well decided upon in 1886 that the 76
pros and amateurs who survived for
the final 36 holes at Baltusrol repre-
sented 20 of the original % districts.
Besides numerical strength. the
other factors which figure in the allo-
cation of the preliminary trials are the
playing strength of each district and
its distance from the championship
proper. This year, from the latter
viewpoint, the tournament has a sin
gularly auspicious location. Fairly
we'll centered geographically yet not
too distant from New York, Chicago
and other centers of population which
also are concentration points of good
golfers and wide golf interest.
Choices Prove Wise.
zach year there is certain amount
of change in the number and loca-
tion of the qualifying points. Two
years ago, for example, Madison, Wis.
was added to the list, and for two rea-
sons: /. To relieve the pressure on the
Chicago district. 2. Because analysis
OF the Chicago entries revealed that a
large number of contestants were COM
ing from Madison and other points In
Wisconsin.
Last year Troy. N. Y, was used as
qualifying point for the first time.
In previous years golfers from the
Central New York area had had to 20
TO Buffalo, Boston or New York, mean
Ing long trip and further congestion
OF districts which already had enough
dlfhculty handling their own entries.
The response in Troy, which took
IN the capital city" area of Albany
and Schenectady, was entirely salts

trials, 33 for the amateur. other
areas which have bore out the U. S.
G, AS wisdom in awarding them trials
OF their own are Connecticut, which
previously had been handled jointly by
New England and New York, and the
