Some people are like cider sweel enough until It Is time to work. to Only About Half the Steer is Beef Live Weight 1200 pounds Dressed Weight 672 pounds of Beef When Swift & Company buys a steer weighing 1200 pounds, only about 672 pounds goes to market as beef; the other 528 pounds consists of hide, fats, other by-products, and waste. When the packer pays 15 cents a pound for a steer, he sells the meat to the retailer for about 24 cents. But the packer gets only about 6 cents a pound for the other 528 pounds. This means that the packer gets about 16 cents a . pound for all the products from a steer for which he pays 15 cents. The difference of 1 cent per pound covers the cost of dressing, preparation of by-products, freight on beef to all parts of the United States, operation of distributing houses, and leaves a net profit of only about of a cent per pqund on all dressed beef sold. Large volume of business and utiliza tion of parts that were formerly wasted, make this achievement possible. Year Book of interesting and instructive facts sent on request.

(Prepared by tho United States Depart mem 01 Agriculture.; In order to bo more 'successful la raising chickens tho poultrymen should provide n house which meets certulu requirements. It need not bo nn ex pensive structure but It Is essential that tho hen3 have n comfortable housd which is dry, roomy, and abundantly supplied with fresh air and sunlight. It never pays to over crowd the fowls. No particular style of house Is pe culiarly adapted to any section of this country. A house which gives satis faction In Maine will nlso give good results In Texas or California, but It Chickens Do Better When Made Com fortable In a Well-Constructed House. Is preferable to build more open, and consequently less expensive, houses in tho South than In the North. Tho best 8lteforthe poultry house depends prln clpally on the local conditions. Tho location should have good water and air drainage, so that tho floor and yards will be dry, while the house should not occupy n low pocket or hol low In which cold air settles, and It should be situated for convenience In management and adapted to the avail able land. Wherever possible a south crn or southeastern exposure should be Selected, although this Is not esseiv tlal If there Is any good reason for fac ing the house In n different .direction. Poultry can be raised successfully on any well-drained soil. A light loam which will grow good grass Is well adapted for this purpose, while a very light sandy soli through which the wa ter leaches freely will stand more In tensive poultry conditions, but most of the green feed for the fowls kept on such n soil will have to be purchased. A heavy clay or adobe soil Is not as well adapted to poultry raising, as such land does not drain rendlly, and It Is much more difficult to keep the stock henlthv. Lontr stationary houses, or the' Intensive system, saves steps, but It Is easier to keep the birds healthy and to reproduce the stock under the colony system, where the birds are al lowed free ranged Breeding stock, and especially growing chickens, should have an abundnnce of range, while hens used solely for the production of market eggs may be kept on a very small area with good results. The col ony house system necessitates placing the bouses, bolding about 100 hens, from 200 to 250 feet apart, so that tho stock will not kill the grass. Tho col ony system may be adapted to severe winter conditions by drawing the col ony houses together In a convenient place at the beginning of winter, thus reducing the labor during these months, HOW TO BREAK BROODY FOWL Confine Hen in Small Coop With Slat Bottom and Give Her Plenty of Water to Drink. When hens become broody and It Is not desired to allow them to batch chickens, they should" be "broken up" uh quickly as possible. The sooner this is done the sooner they will resume laying. To break a ben of broodlness she should be confined to a small coop. preferably with u slat bottom, fllvo her plenty of water to drink ; she may be fed or not, as desired. Nut much difference will be found In the tlmo required to break her of broodlness whether she Is fed or made to fast. Usually three to six days of confine ment will do the work, but some bens require ten to twelve days. The broody hen will bo recognized by her liicllnii tlon to stay on the nest at night, tho milling of her feathers and her de sire to pick anyone who approaches her, and by the clucking nolso sho mukes.

" Why aro any but vegetable preparations unsafe for infants and children ? Why are Syrups, Cordials and Drops condemned by all Physicians and most lajrmen ? Why has the Government placed a ban on all preparations containing, among other poisonous drugs, Opium in its variously prepared forms and pleasing, tastes, and under its innumerable names? These are questions that every Mother will do well to inquire about, Any Physioian will recommend the keeping of Fletoher's Oastoria in the house for the common ailments of infants and children. , - - - " r 1 1 . . ti rm IS Mat Contents ISTluidDfaotmi i silly I.L Children Cry For AVccJaWclVcpafaloBtifAsy iillTTWI ii IHI I 111 neither Oplam.Morphlnc nor J Mineral.
