Physicians Recommend Castoria
f** ASTORIA has met vrith pronounced favor on the part of physicians, pharma-
ceutical societies and medical authorities. It is used by physicians with
results most gratifying. Tho extended uso of Castoria is unquestionably tho
result of three facts: Unt—Tho indisputable evidence that it is harmless:
tecont That it not only allays stomach pains and quiets the nerves, but assimi-
lates the food: Third It is an agreeable and perfect substitute for Castor Oil.
It is absolutely safe. It does not contain any Opium, Morphine, or other narcotio
cud docs not stupefy. It is unlike Soothing Syrups, Bateman’s Drops, Godfrey's
Cordial, etc. Thi%is a good deal for a Medical Journal to say. Our duty, how-
ever, is to expose danger and record the means of advancing health. The day
for poisoning innocent children through greed or ignorance ought to end. To
our knowledge, Castoria is a remedy which produces composure and health, by
regulating tho system—not by stupefying it—and our readers aro entitled to
the information.—lhdl'8 Journal of Health.

tion for the coming winter by getting
rid of the worn and old covering and
acquiring a beautiful new one. A
alight molt is also experienced by
some young pullets that have been
hatched very early in the year. The
only time we have ever had a chance
to observe this, however, was In the
case of six Plymouth Rock jfulleta
that were hatched in February. These
began to lay in the latter part of Au-
gust, and while they went through a
slight molt in the last part of Oc-
tober, this molt was so gradual that
it did not seem to affect the egg yield
to any noticeable extent. Other ex-
periences that we have beard of differ

It would seem that the only thing to
do In thin period is to take as good
care as is possible with the liock so
that the fowls may finish their molt
in the best health. It will be under-
stood by anyone ttiat the shedding of
feathers and the building up of the
new covering is a strain on any fowl
and while the owner is getting al-
most no returns from his flock tins is
the time when their feeding should
be most carefully watched. The usual
habit Is. however, to neglect the Hock
the exception rather than the rule, during this period simply because they
Generally speaking it appears that
pullets batched earlier than the first
part of March will go through the molt
in October and November and may
not resume laying until late in Jan-
uary. Therefore, It would seem that ,
old hens or April and early May
hatched pullets are the most desired {
for early winter laying and for breed-,
lng purposes.
Regarding the heavy molt which i
happens after the pullet year, several i
tests have been made from time to '
time to see if this molt could be 1
“forced" so that the hens would re-
sume laying at least In November. In
forcing the molt, the general plan is
to starve the flock for a period of
from four to six weeks and then feed
heavily during the remainder of the
period. It has generally been found,
however, that the fowls will molt al-
most as quickly under normal condi-
tions as they will If forced.
It Is not generally known that the
time for a fowl to complete Its molt
extends from about 80 days tin the
pullet year) to over 100 days (for the
older birds). Therefore. If a yearling
begins molting In the middle of Au-
gust she will not have her full plum
age until about the middle of Novem-
ber. This, however, is the earliest
date for the molt to commence and in
are not giving good results.
One of th<- best recommended mix-
tures to be fed the flock during the
molting period Is given below This
does not vary much from the feed
given during the rest of the year ex-
cept that cracked corn is used in-
stead of whole corn and not as much
corn is led during the warmer mouths
as during winter.
Scratch mixture—Wheat 10 lbs . oats

of molting, and that careful attention
should tre given flocks at this time.
Tho days when 50 eggs per year per

have passed and it is remembered
that wo now throw out the hen with

GUINEA FOWL IS
MOST DELICIOUS
Cross of Pearl and White Will
Produce Carcass Resem-
bling English Grouse.
(By MICHAEL K. BOYER.)
The Guinea hen Is a good layer, but
on account of the wild, gamey flavor,
the eggs have never had an extensive
sale for table use. However, by turn-
ing the eggs Into broilers or roasters
a considerable profit will be derived.
The flesh Is the nearest substitute we
have for the wild game.
The Guinea is of a roving disposi-
tion, and one of the best known de-
stroyers of Insects.
The laying season starts In early
April and continues until October, the
hen laying as many as >20 eggs in a
season. In the early part of the sea-
son It Is not advisable to let the
Guinea hen hatch a brood, as she is
of too restless a nature, and will not
give her young the proper attention.
But after the first of July, on account
of> the warm weather, she will be
more quiet, and can be safely entrust-
ed with a brood.
It requires four weeks to hatch out
Guineas. The hen always hides her
nest, and that, too. in some very ob-
scure place. As It comes off the nest
tt gives a shrill cry, and in that way
the hiding place can be detected. All
the hens of a Bock are apt to lay in
the same nes'., and In taking away
the eggs they should not be touched
with the hands, for If the hen discov-
ers that the nest has been touched
she will desert It and hunt another
place. Put if the eggs are removed
with a stick she will not leave the
nest, even though ftie eggs are taken
out nearly every day.
It Is claimed that a cross of the
Pearl and White Guineas will produce
a carcass closely resembling that of
the Kngllsh grouse. If rightly cooked,
the meat of even an old bird will be
tender and delicious, while that of the
young bird Is unsurpassed as a broil-
er or frier. The dressed Guinea ha*
good sized
a round, plump body,
breast, and small bones.
Guineas will pair if the sexes are
equal. They generally lay between
the hours of ten o’clock in the morn-
ing and two o’clock In the afternoon.
Until well feathered, the young
Guineas are delicate and tender. »t
is not advisable to hatch before June.
