action, which allows tho blood to get
loaded up with poisons that irritate the

and annoying bladder troubles arc add

Raise High Priced Wheat
on Fertile Canadian Soil
1 Canada extends to you a hearty invita
jj tion to settle on her FREE Homestead
j lands of 160 acres each or secure some
" of the Ic
low
Saskatchewan and Alberta. This year wheat is higher but
Canadian land just as cheap, so the opportunity is more at
tractive than ever. Canada wants you to help feed tho world
by tilling some of her fertile soil land similar to that which
during many years has averaged 20 to 45 bushels of wheat
to the acre. Think of the money you can make with wheat
around $2 a bushel and land so easy to cct. Wonderful
yields also of Oats, Barley and Flax. Mixed farming
in Western Canada is as profitablo an industry as
grain growing.

A French woman with a sense of
humor once told this story.
Sho was walking up u flight of
stairs In ono of those Paris apartment
houses with n mirror at tho head of
each landing.
As she glanced up, panting, she
thought sho saw n woman descending.
She said to herself: "Well, if I wero
that fat old woman I should know bet

When she reached tho head of tho
stairs she confronted herself.

SUITABLE HOUSE FOR DUCKS
Fowls Forced to Sit on Damp Ground
Are Liable to Take Cramps and
Other Diseases.
Ducks, both old and young, should
have a dry, comfortable place to stay
In at night. If forced to sit on tho
damp ground they nre ltable to take
cramps and cold In the head. Tho
latter Is almost certain to turn to
roup.
Provide suitable houses If you wish
to bo successful. The houses need not
be very expensive, but they should bo
substantial, so that they may bo used
for the same purpose several years In
succession.
There Is usually somo shed or
building that can bo converted Into
a duckhouso at small expense. Where
only a smnll flock Is kept this plan
Is advisable.
If the roof Is good tho rest Is easy.
If tho weatherboardlng is not suffi
ciently close to keep out drafts In cold
weather, cover the outside with tarred
paper or strip with lath.
A board floor is better than an
earth floor because tho ducks will often
stir up tho ground In n very disagree
able maimer where there is tho least
sign of moisture.
In cold weather ducks should be kept
In the house because their feet are so
tender that when they come In contact
with the cold ground they suffer great
ly nnd hobble along as though their
backs wero broken. However, they
should not be kept housed more than
is really necessary.
OPEN FRONT POULTRY HOUSE
Burlap Curtain Is Placed Over Open
ing to Keep Out Wind and Snow
During Stormy Weather.
As I believe the housing of poultry
fully ns important as their dally feed,
I am sending the picture of the poul
try house my husband built for me,
writes Mrs. J. M. Freeman of Sawyer,
Mich., lu Farm Progress.
This houso was designed some
years ago by Dr. P. T. Woods, a
prominent poultrymun. Since build
ing this house, two years ago, I have
not had u sick chicken on tho
place. The front In boarded up 18
Inches from the ground nnd down
nine Inches from the top. The open
ing Is covered with heavy quarter
Inch mesh wire, over which we put
n burlap curtain in stormy weather
to keep out wind and snow. At other
times It Is always-open.
A houso of this style, which meas
ures 12 by 1G feet, will house from
30 to 35 hens comfortably, with good
Superior House for Poultry.
results. At present during very blus
tery weather 70 per cent of my hens
are laying. Their grain food consists
of corn, wheat and buckwheat. When
confined they nro supplied with green
stuff, such aB cabbage, beets, etc.
I always keep plenty of scratch
ing material on tho floor, In which
they nre fed three times a day, thus
keeping them constantly nt work.
They also have fresh water threo
times a day. I will be glad to fur
nish exact measurements of this houso
to anyone wishing them.
WINTER HOUSE FOR TURKEYS
Shed With Curtain Front for Use In
Severe Weather Is Sufficient
Avoid Warm Building.
Although turkeys do not need a
good houso for winter, they should
havo n shed of some kind. Simply n
shed with n curtain front, to bo let
down In severe weather, and it roost
well up toward the top Is all that Is
needed. In such n place they would
bo comfortable In most nny weather
and will have conditions nearly llko
outdoors. Tightly built, warm houses
nro not necessary or advisable.
PREMIUM FOR SELECT EGGS
Those of Best Quality, Newly Laid, Are
Worth More Than Market Prlco
to Customer.
If average quality fresh eggs nro
selling on tho market for 35 cents per
dozen, selected, best quality new laid
eggs, should be worth twice ns much
to those who appreciate what is best
In foods. At no time should high grado
new-laid eggs bring less than CO cents
n dozen at the point of production.
GRAIN MIXTURE FOR LAYERS
Cracked Corn and Oats, Fed in Mash
With Cornmeal and Beef
Scraps Is Excellent.
It has been proven that a mixture
of cracked corn und oats, fed along
with a dry mash of cornmeal und beef
wraps, bus glve;i even better results
tu the laying pens than has a mlxturo
coutainlng wheat.
Fasten Helmets at Bacx.

troops tu Franco tire to bo adopted by

of attacks, shrapnel, for Instance, Is
not entirely without Its dangers, writes
a war correspondent. When they wero

RELIABLE REMEDY
RESTORES KIDNEYS
For many years druggists have watched
with much interest the remarkable record
maintained by Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Hoot,
the great kidney, liver and bladder rem
edy. It is a physician's prescription.
Swamp-Root is a strengthening medi
cine. Dr. Kilmer used it for years in his
private practice. It helps tho kidneys,
liver and bladder do the work nature in
tended they should do.
Swamp-Root has stood the test of years.
It is sold by all druggists on its merit and
it will help you. No other remedy can
successfully tako its place.
Be sure to get Swamp-Root and start
treatment at once. .
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to Dr.

tho other by the force of the explosion
had been effectively plugged by the
swollen grain. Tho fishermen wore
afraid to attempt to tow her because
tho rush of tho water along hor sides
might have washed uwny tho effective

This made tho stoppage secure enough
