Roofing
Before its merits were recorj

aa a more or less temporary roof
but now CERTAIN-TEED
has demonstrated 'that it is not
only a most durable roof, but
also thi most efficient roof.
It is economical to buy, inex
pensive to lay and costs practi
cally nothing to maintain. It is
light weight, clean, sanitary, fire
retardent and wcatrur-tight.
It is now used as the preferable
type of roof for office buildings,
factories, hotels, stores, ware
houses, garages, farm buildings,
etc., where durability is de
manded. CERTAIN-TEED
is guaranteed for 5, 10 or 15
years, according to thickness (1,

EGGS OF ANY DESIRED SIZE
Expert of United States Department
of Agriculture Has Adopted
Gauge for Farmers.
Mr. Frank C. Hare, In his work for
the United States department of agri
culture among the South Carolina
farmers, has adopted the accompany
ing egg gauge so that the farmers can
select eggs of tho desired size. An egg

between the two points of the gauge,
Is rejected for sending to market. It
might be well to fashion one for your
own use.
DETERMINE AGE Of POULTRY
While There Is No Positive Rule to Go
By There Aro Certain Condi
tions to Guess By.
Strictly speaking, there Is no posi
tive test for the age of poultry. How
ever, n close guess can be made un
der certain conditions. Tor Instance,
the sizo of spurs generally distin
guishes n two-year-old bird; yet the
writer hns hnd young birds develop
spurs that would have done eredit
to older birds. On the other hand,
lie has had two-year-old birds with
spurs that were as short and rounded
ns those of u cockerel. To some ex
tent the texture of the leg Is a guide,
and so Is the delicacy and freshness
of the skin of the face nnd comb. Yet
there will be occasional hens that have
n youthful appearance to a remarkable
degree. (
Probably a better test is the skin
of the body, that of the older fowl
being coarser and drier in appearance.
A pullet will show rose-colored veins
on the surface of tho skin under the
wings. Long silky hnirs will also bo
grown there; but after the pullet has
become a year old these hairs and
veins will disappear and the skin will
grow white and vclnless.
It Is more difficult to determine tho
ago of water fowls than It Is of other
poultry.
COOPS FOR FATTENING HENS
Object Is to Reduce Exercise and In
crease Consumption of Fat-Producing
Materials.
Fattening rations aro not compli
cated or need not bo to bring fair re
sults. Tho prlnclplo of fattening Is
to reduce the exercise nnd Increase
the consumption of fat-producing
food. If tho farmer possesses n num
ber of small shed-roof brood coops
sich as aro used for sitting hens with
chicks, these coops will be fine for fat
tening hens. Kiich coop will accomino
date about five hens without crowding
and they will hnvo little opportunity
for lighting or scratching. Feed them
three times each day from n pan con
taining n sloppy mixture of sour milk
nnd corn meal and allow tho hens to
cat all they will consume. After each
feeding remove the pan so that any
remaining feed will not become con
taminated with dirt and cause the
birds to lose their appetites.
PROPER FEED FOR PULLETS
Almost Impossible to Overfeed Young
FowlsIf Not Given Variety
They Will Not Grow.
It Is surprising tho quantity of food
thnt young pullets will consume. It
Is almost Impossible to overfeed them,
for, unlike the hen In lnylng condition,
they take on fat very slowly. If, how
ever, they are Improperly fed and do
not obtain n proper variety of food
they will not grow, either In size or
weight, and will bo very slow In com
ing to the laying point.
FANCY PRICE FOR BROILERS
Around Holiday Season There Is Al
ways Big Demand for Chickens
Hatched In Fall.
Chitons hatched In early fall
should bring fancy prices us broilers
or fryers near the holiday senson.
There Is generally a grcnt demnnd for

LOOSE MORALS IN RUSSIA
Marriage Vows Are Broken on Least
Provocation" and Severing of Bonds
Is Very Common.
Morals In Uusslnn society arc get
ting very loose, the sanctity of mar
rlngo Is being challenged by too great
a facility for obtaining divorce. Many
girls marry In haste to get their In
dependence, and look upon their first
matrimonial venture ns a step to bet
ter themselves In tho future, writes n
correspondent. It seems paradoxical,
but It Is nevertheless u fact that It
Ib far easier for a married woman than
for n spinster to find u husband.
The breaking off of an engagement
creates a scandal, but tho severing of
matrimonii bonds Is becoming quite
tho usual thing. The most Insignifi
cant misunderstanding causes husband
and wife to break their marriage vows
and go their different ways. Gossips
chatter about Impending divorces ns
much ns of budding engagements. In
Hussln a divorced Woman does not
lose n tltho of'her reputation, If no
outrageous scandal attaches to her di
vorce. Should she marry again, she
returns to society with her new hus
band nnd enjoys nil the prerogatives
of her new position. The victims of
this stnte of things are the unfortu
nate children.
OLD PRESCRIPTION
FOR WEAK KIDNEYS
A medicinal preparation like Dr. Kil
mer's Swamp-Root, that has real curative
value almost sells itself. Like an endless
chain system the remedy is recommended
by those who have been benefited to those
who are in need of it.
Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Iloot is a physi
cian's prescription. 'It lias been tested
for years and has brought results to count
less numbers who have suffered.
The success of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root
is due to the fact that it fulfills almost ev
ery wish in overcoming kidney, liver and
bladder diseases, corrects urinary troubles
and neutralizes the uria acid which causes
rheumatism.
Do not suffer. Get a bottle of Swamp
Root from any druggist now. Start treat
ment today.
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation Rend ten cents to Dr.
Kilmer & Co., Ringhamton, N. Y., for a.
sample bottle. When writing be sure and
mention this paper. Adv.

The new, German gns Is the most
fearful Instrument the wnr bus yet
produced, by the testimony of those
who hnve experienced It. Tho senses
give no warning of It. Tho gassed
man does not know he Is a victim until
be reels and falls.
"We have to tie 'cm down In the
nmbulnnces," said u driver. "They
suffer nnd scream ! My God I Their
eyes go, you know. Then all their
mucous membranes. I guess most of
'em die. That's what I hear."
Tho new gas clings to the ground
for days, according to report. It lips
been felt at 15 kilometers behind the
lines. Oddly enough, tobacco gives
the only alarm. The man who Is
smoking feels- the gas In time to get
on his mask or run nway, while the
nonsmoker falls on his face uncon
scious. $100 Reward, $100

"Femlnalls" Are Worn.
Ono of the packing houses In the
stock yards In Chicago has persuaded
Its women employees to wear what It
cr.lls "femlnalls," another form of over
alls. The women nt first objected, buf
ns so much mnchlnery with belts and
other contrivances thnt are likely to
catch In tho dresses of women are
used, tho managers persunded live
women to try It, nnd It was then easy
for the rest to don the femlnalls. In
this particular placo 7,000 women aro
employed, about three times ns ninny
as last year, and much of the work
they do was formerly dono by men.
A Little Mixed.

ho lacerated my feelings." i

"We must all give until It hurts."
"True. Rut It hurts some folks to
