Chickens Do Best When Not Over-
crowded.
If you want vigorous chickens and
hens that lay do not overcrowd them.
Forty or 50 In one flock are sufficient.
If you have more than this number
by all means make a change for your
chickens are probably costing more
than they are worth. If you do not
care to sell any of your birds then
start Into the chicken business on the
colony plan. Divide your flock into
colonies of about 40 fowls each and
build houses for them in different
parts of the farm. For instance, if you
have one henhouse on the east side of
the barn put another house on the
west side. Then if you have enough
birds put another house down by the
calf lot and another to the farther end
of the barn yard. 'A dozen different
places will suggest themselves if you
look for locations on your farm. If
you have made a failure in raising
chickens or your hens "don’t amount
to much” try this method It will sur-
prise and please you. Your hens will
be healthier, will lay better and will
| require les3 feed. The reason for this
j will be easily seen when you have
once tried it. Chickens, or anything
else for that matter, cannot stand
| crowding. Also the colony plan gives
; the fowls wider range and encourages
j the birds to hunt tor their living.—

Comforting Words.
Many A Houtehold Will Find Them So.
To have the pains and aches of a bad
back removed; to be entirely free
from annoying, dangerous urinary
disorders is enough to make any kid-
ney sufferer grateful. To tell how this
great change can be brought about
will prove comforting words to hun-
dreds of readers.
W. H. C. Brown, well knoxn
throughout Guthrie, general agent
for the Ottawa Star Nursery Co., and
residing at 514 Vilas street, Guthrie,
Okla., soys: “1 have beSn a great
sufferer from kidney disease for a
period of seven or eight years.
Several years ago 1 almost died from
what is knownjas stone or gravel of
the bladder. This left my kidneys in
a weak condition and ever since I
have been bothered almost constantly
w ith a lame and aching back, not bad
enough to make me take to my bed,
but sufficient to prevent me from
attending to my work. As if back-
ache was not enough torment and
misery there existed a trouble with
the kidney secretions. The action of
those organs was altogether too fre-
quent, especialily at night, and the
secretions were often accompanied
with pain. I was treated by physici-
ans and tried one remedy after another
! but all failed to give me even tempor-
ary relief, and at the .time that Doan’s
Kidney Pills first come to my
attention I was so utterly discouraged
that I thought I was not long for
this world. It is impossible for me to
describe my condition at the time
that I went for my first box. That
box improved my condition so much
that I used a second and a third.
When I had taken threa boxes the
trouble was ended and I considered
myself cured. I feel better than I
have for twenty years. I never hesi-
tate to recommend Doan’s Kidney
Pills, for I claim that they were the
means of saving my life."
For sale by all dealers. Price, 50
cents. Foster-Mdburn Co., New
York, sole agents for the United
States.
Remember the name—Doan's—and
take no other.
That languid, lifeless fueling that
comes with spring and early summer
can be quickly changed to a feeding
of boyancy and energy by by the judi-
cious use of Dr. Shoop’s Restorative.
; The Restorative is a genuine tonic to
tired, run-down nerves, and but n
few doses is needed to satisfy the
user that I r. Shoap’s Restorative is
, actually reaching that tired spot.
I The indoor life of winter nearly al-
! ways leads to sluggish bowels, and to
i sluggish circulation in general. The
! customary lack of exercise and out-
I door air ties up the liver, stagnates
1 the kidneys, and oft-times weakens
j the heart action. Use Dr. Shoop’s
; Restorative a few weeks and all will
; changed. A few day’s test will tell
Syou that you are using the right rem-
edy. You will easily and surely note
| the change from day to day. Sold by
j Galer's City Drug Store.
.lust Because
your cough is only in the throat and does ne t
trouble you now, don't think that it needs no
attention. When it has not had much of a
start is the time to check it. The slightes t
cough easily leads to pneumonia, bronchitis
and consumption. A bottle of Ballard’s Hore-
hound Syrup will cure that cough. The price
puts it within reach of all. Sold by Galer’s
j City Drug Store.
j Doubtless you have noticed, when
tired, hot, perspiring and dusty, how
I grateful and refreshing a cool bath
1 Is, and what an aid it proves in
toning up the general health. A con-
! slderate breeder will see that his
j fowls enjoy this same comfort—only
In their natural way, a generous dust
i bath.
i A commodious box or large heap
of fine road dust should be kept In
easy reach of the fowls at all times.
This will greatly aid In keeping them
free from lloe and vermin of all
kinds, and helps the plumage to re-
tain its natural brilliancy.
During the warm season a good
supply of this dust should be gathered
and stored In boxes and barrels for
uso In the winter. It will be appre-
ciated by the fowls, and will be
found to benefit them In about the
same degree as In the summer time.
It ts a good plan to sift the dust as
It la gathered, discarding all the stones
and lumps. The fine dust should then
be placed in some dry place where
dampness will not affect it, until
Veterinarian Cautions Against 1
Heavy Feeding.
• ~
A noted veterinarian of Canada
says that one full feed per day o(
hay is enough for a horse; that be-
cause the wort horses are buBy la
crop time they only get one full fee*
of hay every 24 hours, but in the wlih
ter are frequently allowed to stand
and eat all day. He says that a hone
to be in perfect health should have
the stomach emptied, of the previous
meal for two or three hours before be
Is given another. If such 1b not the
case, digestion will not take place la'
a perfect manner, and disease is likely
to result. There Is a remarkable syn*
pathy between the stomach and *he
. lungs, because of the fact that the
same nerve trunk supplies nerve force
to both organs. When the stomach
is deranged from improper feeding the
lungs are liable to become sympa-
thetically affected and heaves often
result. Care should also be taken that
a horse should be fed no dusty or
musty hay. This dust is as light as
air, and the horse in breathing dra"’
it right into the luug tissue with ev .
breath, and this substance, being
irritant, is very prone to develop t
heaves. If no better hay can be
talned, the dust should be laid*
sprinkling with water, when the ho
will not breathe it, but will be sw .
lowed with his feed and probably do
j him no harm; but when at all possible
j only bright, clean hay, free from dust,
l should be fed to horses. Again no
; horse is in fit. condition for active ex-
! ercise with a stomach distended with
J hay, because the stomach situated as
it is right behind the lung space, if
1 full, bulges forward into the chest to
j such an extent that the lungs have no
room to properly expand, and cannot
perform their functions properly; and
anything that interferes with the func-
tion of the lungs predisposes to heaves.
In many cases if farmers would feed
one-third less hay to idle horses in the
winter months they would come out in
the spring in better condition.

GOOD FOR LOUSY HOG8.
New York Foe to Raoe Suicide.
“Fifty dollars when you get mar-
ried; $50 for every baby.” That’s the
offer J. D. Martin, proprietor of a
fashionable New York hotel, has made
to his employes. In case the babies
come in twos or threes each one
stands to collect. $50 just tke same.
Mr. Martin has paid $5,150 in bonuses
within the last year, and is willing to
pay as much more this year. Once
only he has paid upon twins. "I’ve
found the plan to work out admirably,”
Martin declares. "Marriage and babies
bring responsibility, and that increases
the reliability of my help. My men
are not looking around all the time
for another job; their habits are bet-
ter than ever before, and I can al-
ways depend upon them. I used to
have lots of trouble in keeping my
people. Now they seldom make a
change. The plan is. worth the
money.”

The Emblem o4 France.
The origin of the fleur-de-lis Is still
an unsettled question. There are many
theories, but no two of them agree.
One makes the emblem originate with
Clovis I., andother with Louis VII.. an-
other with one of the Gorman kings
of the twelfth century and still an-
other with the Romans. All that Is
definitely settled Is the fact that stnee
the twelfth century the fleur-de-lis has
been employed as the emblem of
French royalty. The nature of the
emblem Is alao In dispute. An old
tradition makes It the representation
of the lily given by the angel to
Clovis at his baptism. Another theory
Is that It was adopted by Louis VII.
in allusion to his name, Louis Florus.

The Sou roe of Life.
In Paleozoic times, then, It was the
earth itself, not the sun, to which
plant and animal primarily stood be-
holden for existence. This gives us
a most Instructive glimpse Into one
planetologtc process. To the planet's
own Internal beat Is due the chief
fostering of the beginnings of life upon
Its surface. Thus a planet Is capable
of at least beginning to develop or-
ganisms without more than a modicum
of help from the central sun. We talk
of the ran as the source of life; and
so It ts today In the sense of being
Its sustalner; but the real source was
the earth itself, which also raised it
through Its babyhood.—From Prof.
Lowell’s “The Evolution of Life,” In
Century. —
Clean Eggs.
There Is only one way to get clean
eggs, and that It to have clean nests
and clean poultry houses. An egg once
soiled is permanently soiled. The egg
when warm has around it a glutinous
substance that fixes the dirt on the
egg If the dirt come3 when the eggs
are freshly laid. Hens that are kept
where they have to walk through dirty,
wet yards, go Into the nests with their
feet covered with mud. The mud from
their feet gets onto the fresh egg and
the soiling is the result. Washing
will not undo the injury and such eggs
are best used at home and not sent to
market. A few such eggs in a lot
will put the lot into the category of
"dirties" when the eggs are sold.
Eggs for the Incubator.
A great deal depends on the kind of
eggs you have to put In an Incubator.
The eggs should be fresh and from
good healthy, vigorous stock. As the
eggs are gathered day by day they
should be kept where they will not get
too cold or too warm. Select eggs as
near an even size and color as pos-
sible. The eggs should be turned
once a day to keep the yolk suspended
In the center. It Is best not to keep
eggs more than two weeks. Tne
fresher they are the better.—O. W.
Watson.
Needs Variety.
One poultry writer truthfully says
that what the hen on the farm needs
most Is the proper assortment of grain,
plenty of green food and a full pro-
portion of meal and grit. If this Is
provided and they are properly housed
and made to exercise you will have
laying hens In winter when it pays
well to have them.

STOCK TALK.
Skim milk is good for lambs.
The farmers are not yet fully awake
to the value of a good cow.
Feeding high-priced stuff and mar-
keting at a loss is an unprofitable
proposition.
The young pig needs bone and mus-
cle developing foods, both before ami
after it is born.
The time will come when farm-
made butter will sell for as good a
price as any other kind of butter.
Keeping the hogs clean will not al-
ways keep away cholera, buj [X has ^
strong tendency in that direction. ,
Do not turn stock into the meadows
when they are wet, as the tramping
is very injurious at that time.
Try This Plan.
Rather than feed all corn to stock
on which you want to produce growth,
you had better sell corn and buy
wheat bran, middlings, oil meal or any
other feed high in protein that can bo
had at right kind of prices and mix
with your corn. I know it Is a com-
mon practice among some farmers to
finish their hogs for the market on
an exclusive corn ration. I very much
doubt the wisdom of this method. I
do not believe there Is a period In a
hog’s life when a variety of feed will
not bef productive of better results
than an exclusive corn ration, __':

Don't Feed Corn Alone.

day on well-bred swine. Something iR
