THE CAUSE OF BACKACHE, Ever slnco tho discovery of uric acid In tho blood by Scheolo, In 1775, and the bad effect it had upon the body, scientists and physicians havo striven to rid tho tissues and tho blood of this, poison. Because of Its over abundance in tho system it causes backache, pains here and thero, rheu matism, gout, gravel, neuralgia and sciatica. It was Dr. Plorco who dis covered a now agent, called "Anuric," which will throw out and completely oradlcat this uric acid from the sys tem. "Anuric" is 37 tiraos moro po tent than HtMa, and consequently you need no longer fear muscular or ar ticular rheumatism or gout, or many Ought to Work. "Alas, I havo never been klsBed." "That shows lack of enterprise on your part. Your sister has a flanco, I licllovo?" "Yes." "Why don't you moot him occasion ally In tho dark hall?" Louisville Courlor-Journal.

Thoro nro many reasons why geese and ducks nro not moro popular table fowls than they nro, but the chief rea son is thnt they aro so poorly' fitted for tho markot. Many a farm flock of ducks and gooso would pay a mora handsomo prollt if somo attention was paid to tho fattening of It. First, a young duck or gooso must bo had for fattening. Stock thnt la too old Is not sweet niul tender as it should be. Ono cannot build up a roputatlon by selling it. Old stock, if less than throe or four seasons of ago, is better for breeding purposes thnn for market. Youngsters hatched from tho eggs of yearling and two-year-old ducks, and geese aro tho most vigorous. A crnto with a slatted bottom and Bet up off tho floor or ground in an Emden Geese. open shed is an ideal arrangement foi winter fattening. Provido a trough to fit in front of each crato and let tho birds feed through tho slats. Arrange to givo plenty of wator or skim milk at all times. Dairy wastes can bo well utilized in mixing up mash foods for fattening tho fowls. Do not crowd too many fowls In a crate. Let thero bo room enough fo," each bird to stand at tho trough with out trampling each other. Tho birds should bo provided with plenty of sharp gravel or other grit. Start them on full feed -t once and keep them on It for 18 dayB at least A duck or gooso will lay on u largo amount of fat la thlc tlmo if properly fed. It is about as long an . water fowl can bo fed "1th nroflt. Feed r mash food f corn chon and oats three time:- 'ally. Lot' tho baso of this mash b ut lover, cut nlfalfa or bran. It must havo - bulky baso of somo kind In order do tho 'owl tho most good. Corn " cornmoal alono is not a good fattcier. Tho Idea of feeding mach food In that It puts mor esh on tho fowls because It is morr easily assimilated by the fowls' Bystemn. Ducks and geese well fitted aro al ways in big demand in tho cities. CullB and poor and old atock will uovor bring over markot prices. EXERCISE FOR LAYING HENS When Feeding Grain 8catter It Far nnd Wide and Make Fowls Hustle to Gather It Up. In tho first placo do not ovfcrfoed. Bear In mind that if a. hen is to bo kept in laying condition, sho must havo exorclso. Whon you feed grain, do not put It in a trough where tho hens can stand and oat their 1111, but Bcattor it far and vido, as tho hens will find ovory grain. If tho snow Is on the ground after tho cold season sots in, throw tho grain in leaves or cut straw, bo aB to koop them busy. Do not feed grain exclusively, but givo a variety. Allow ground meat or meat and bono fresh from tho butch er, throo times a week. Vary tho grain, feeding corn, wheat and oats, and givo cabbage, cooked turnips, clover leaves or any other food that tho hens will oat. FIVE SOUND POULTRY RULES Keep Nests Clean Gather Eggs Twice Dally and Store In Cool Place Sell tho Roosters. It is urged that all farmers and poultrymon adhere strictly to tho fol lowing rules in handling their poul try and eggs: 1. Keep tho nests cloan; provlao ono nest for ovory four hens. 2. Gather tho oggs twlco dally. 3. Koop tho eggs In a cool, dry room or cellar. 4. Market tho eggs at least twlco a week. G. Soli, kill, or confine all male birds as soon as tho hatching season is ovor. Feathers From Geese. The big Toulouse oose bhould pro duco you something over a dollar's worth of feathers a year even where the feather market is known to bo cheap, as In the far-out country places, Add this to Its other profit and you havo a valuable asset for profit in such gooso. WONDERFUL PROGRESS IN CANADA It Is Over tho Hill-Splendid Bank Clearings, and the Crop Returns Reveal Vast Possi bilities for the Future. "Thoro aro opportunities for Invest ment In Canada now that may prove attractlvo to American capital. Land prices In tho west nro low and wngos less than on this sldo of tho tlno, niul whatovor tho outcomo of tho war, tho futuro of tho Dominion Is assured as ono of prosperity In tho dovolopmcnt of Its vast rosourccB." Chicago Tribune. A short tlmo ago tho Canadian gov ernment asked for prlvnto subscrlp Hons to a loan of fifty million dollnrs. Less than n month was given for com pletion of tho subscription. On No vember 30th. tho day upon which sub scriptions woro to ccaso. It was found that 110 million of dollars had been subscribed or GO million dollars moro than tho amount asked. If thoro wero any bo pessimistic ns to imaglno thnt Canada was passing through a period of hard times tho wonderful showing of this subscription should put aside all doubts of Canada's rapidly lncroas' ing prosperity. Tho bank clearings of Winnipeg for 1915 woro a billion nnd a half of dol lars. Think of It. Thon, In addition, thero woro tho bnnk clearings of tho other cities throughout Western Can ada. Rcglna, Saskatoon nnd Mooso Jaw also show big lncrcaso In clear ings. Tho Winnipeg statistics show that tho city has douo tho biggest financial, commercial and Industrial buslnest .n its history In 1915. A billion and a half nro big cloarlngs, representing business on a per cap ita basis of over $7,000 per head for every mnn, woman and child In tho city, and has gono ahead of big man ufacturing cities liko Buffalo, and runs a close second to Dotrolt. It has shown bigger bank cloarlngs than tho middlo west cities of Minneapolis and Duluth, and has oxceoded Los Angoles, Seattlo and other notod ship ping centers. It Is now sldo by sldo with tho ten biggest cities In North America In amount of bank clearings. But bocauso tho war holped Canada recover quickly from a nntural eco nomic depression it docs not follow that, at tho end of tho war, the coun try must suffer a relapso, and straight way return to a Btato of Inactivity and hard times. A Winnipeg paper, with a woll known reputation for conservatism in economic matters says: Canada's undeveloped fields should prove a mighty factor after tho war In adjusting tho country's business from ono period to another. Tho staggering figures of this year's crop, showing In creases In production of CO por cent ovor last year, give a slight Idea of tho futuro wealth stored In vast stretches of prairie plain yet untouched by the plow. Tho Northwest Grain-Dealers' As sociation on September 1 estimated that tho wheat crop of tho three Pralrlo Provinces would amount to 250,800,000 bushels. On November 10 thnt esti mate was increased to 307,230,000 bushels. Tho Dominion government on September 13 estimated tho West ern wheat crop at 275,772,200 buBhels, but on October 15 thoso figures woro changed to 304,250.000 bushels. Monetary Returns for the Western Crop. And tho amount of monoy which the west Is recelvitfg for Its grain has not yet been wholly appreciated. Up to tho 10th of December tho Canadian west had received some 170 million dollars for 182 million Inmhols of Its grain crop, of which 149 million bush els was wheat. Tho average price of No. 1 Northern wheat for Soptombor was 93 cents; for Octobor 98V!! conts, and for tho first three weeks of November $1.03. On tho IOUj or December thero was fully 120 million bushels of wheat to ho markoted. This would leave about 30 million bushels for local consumption In tho Pralrlo Provinces. Brndstrect says: "Confidence seems to havo returned In Canada; grain crops nro exception ally largo, prices pay the farmor, and tho war-order lines provido work and , aid In circulating much money. Credit Is moro freely granted, and Interior merchants are disposed to buy rather liberally." Advertisement. One Kind. "Pa, what aro hlood relations?" "War stories, my son."
