Probably no institution in America is more widely known than Doctor Pierce's Invalids' Hotel in Buffalo, N. Y. Although established many years Jigo it is today n modern sanitarium; having all the latest facilities for the correct diagnosis of diseases nnd their successful treatment through medicine or surgery. It was Dr. Pierce, its fouiuTer, who over 50 years ago gave to tho world that wonderful stomach tonic and blood purifier, "Golden Medical Discovery," and that famous non alcoholic medicine for women, "Fa vorite Prescription." In his early professional career, Dr. Pierce realized that every family, but especially those who live remote from n physician, should have at hand nn Instructive book that would teach them something nbout First Aid, Physi ology, Anatomy, Hygiene; how to rec ognize different diseases, how to care for the sick, what to do In case of ac ciuent or sudden sickness, etc., so he published that great book, the "Medical Adviser," an up-to-dnte edition of which can be procured by sending "0 cents to Doctor Pierce's Invnlids' Hotel in Buffalo, N. Y. Later, Dr. Pierce added another link to liis chain of good works by estab lishing a bureau of correspondence to which any one can write for medical advice, without any expense whatever, nnd if necessary, medicines especially prepared in Doctor Pierce's Laboratory will bo sent by parcel post or express for use at home, at a reasonable cost. Thus those who have symptoms of dis ease need not suffer mental agony fear ing that they have some serious ail ment, but can hnve a diagnosis -mado free by a physician of high profes sional standing. Write to Dr. Pierco relating your symptoms if you need medical advice for any chronic disease. All letters regarded ns confidential.

PLAN INCREASED EGG PRODUCTION Marked Attention Should Be Paid to Feeding, Housing, Culling and Breeding. 1 BREEDING FLOCK ESSENTIAL Free Range Gives Ideal Conditions for Fowls Close Confinement Re duces Vitality of Stock Mash Hoppers Favored. Poultry keepers Interested In In creasing the egg production of their (locks will pay marked attention to the methods of feeding, housing, culling nnd breeding. Probnbly the least prog ress on most fnrms has been made In tho nrt of breeding poultry, says T. S. Townsley of the University of Mis souri College of Agriculture, in Exten sion Circular 72. To produce high layers only the best individual producers should bo used ns breeders. This suggests the necessity for having it special breed ing flock. On farms where eggs for setting are saved from the entire llock, selection Is usually based only on the size and shnpo of tho eggs. With this system the breeder stands a good :huncc of setting many eggs from the very lowest producers. Even tho poor est hens lay fairly well during the hatching season and their eggs are usually large and smooth. This meth od of mass selection of setting eggs Is in the same class ns the crib selec tion of seed corn nnd will bring just as poor results. Tho first step In improv ing the egg production is the estab lishment of a special breeding llock. Free Range Is Ideal. No special fencing is neccssnry to handle the llock. Free range gives Ideal conditions for breeding fowls. A pen Is a great detriment to the efficiency of tho breeding flock and Is not at all needed on the farm. Close confinement reduces the vitality of the llock and results in poor hatches nnd weak chicks. Where separate houses are available for the breeding llock nnd the com mercial flock, free range can be given tlie birds In each group. If feed Is kept constantly available in the mash hoppers in each house the birds will nV.im to the proper house to lay so that the eggs can be kept separate without any attention to yards. Of course, males should be supplied only for the breeding llock, nnd by keeping these birds. In tho house until eight or nine o'clock in the morning, sntls factory mntlng will bo Insured. Some Utility and Quality Are Combined in Fowls of This Kind. mating mny occur on the range be tween the hens In the commercial flock and the males from the breed ing llock, but tills does no special harm. On farms where there Is only one poultry house, a partition can be put in to keep the two Hocks separate. If It seems undesirable to allow both (locks to range at the same time, alter nate the range by letting tho breeders run at largo one day, and the Com mercial layers the next. During the cool weather of the breeding season this system works satisfactorily. Number of Breeders. Tho number of birds to Include In tho breeding Hock should be deter mined by the number of high-class In dividuals available and by the num ber of eggs needed for hatching. If Incubators are used, enough breeders should be kept to fill the machines without holding any eggs longer than two to twelve days. Usually a pro duction of at least HO per cent can be expected during Iho hatching senson. Forty breeders should furnish enough eggs to fill a 200-egg machine within ten days. However, only hens of high producing nbillty should be used as breeders even if it Is necessary to buy some eggs for hatching. LARGER YIELDS OF ALFALFA Practically Double the Amount of Clo ver Hay Obtained in Tests at Wisconsin Station. Trials conducted on the Wisconsin experiment station farm nt Madison show thnt nlfitlfa gives yields prac tically double that of clover hay and three times as much ns timothy. An ncre of alfalfa produced In a single season three times as much protein as an acre of clover and nine times as much as an ncro of timothy.' PRODUCERS BENEFIT BY MEAT INSPECTION Foreigners Insist a Federally Inspected Product. Possible to Obtain Detailed Records of Conditions of Animals at Time of Slaughter Diseases Can Be Traced. (Prepared by tho United Stales Depart ment of ARrloulture.) "Contrary to the common belief that ment Inspection Is conducted prin cipally for consumers, It lttn a side which Is of direct help to live stock producers," says the chief of the bu reau of animal Industry. "In tne first place, the hulk of our foreign trade In ments depends nlmost entirely on the federal meat-Inspection service. Most foreign governments will not ac cept meat that has not been federally Inspected. Inspection of import meats, Inspectors at Work on Regular Post- mortem Examination. accompanied by rejection of meat prod ucts not entitled to entry, Is of course a factor in our domestic market. "Through the federal meat-Inspection service It has been possible to ob tain very detailed records of condi tions of animals at time of slaughter. These records show clearly whether certain animal diseases are on tho In crease or decrease, nnd, through n sys tem known as field inspection, centers of infection have in numerous cases been found and wiped out. "Of course, the main benefit of fed eral meat inspection to producers is iho confidence of the American pub lic in inspected meats, and it is note worthy that tho average per capita consumption of meats has increased as tho meat-inspection service has been extended." BENEFITS OF SWEET CLOVER Crop Makes Valuable Feed for Live Stock and Enriches Soil by Adding Humus. The northwest experiment station at Crookston, Minn., strongly recom mends the growing of sweet clover on a more extensive scale than hereto fore. A recent statement Issued at the station says: "Sweet clover Is not only one of the greatest soil enrlchers, but Is n valuable feed for live stock. It adds humus to the soil, because of the depth to which the roots penetrate and the ease with which they decay. Laud that has been cropped with sweet clover which hns been Inocu lated will grow n better stand of al falfa without further Inoculation. "Sweet clover. Is commonly sown with u nurse crop. It Is more easily plowed up than alfalfa. It Is it good cash crop when grown for seed, and should be tried at least on a small scale by every farmer." DISPOSITION OF DEAD FOWLS Carcasses of Birds Should Not Be Al lowed to Lie Around and Decay Burning 16 Best. Never allow tho carcasses of birds that have died to He around and de cay. Either bury them good nnd deep or, better still, burn them. If you have no furnace or stove In which you want to burn them, saturate them good with kerosene and set fire to them. If you leave them uncovered nnd al low them to decay, your whole llock Is liable to be stricken with llmbcrneck. DEEP SOIL HOLDS MOISTURE Main Agent by Which Roots of Plants Get Their Food Aeration Also Is Essential. A deep soil Is conducive to maxi mum crop production. It will hold more moisture, and when this Is ex hausted will draw the moisture from the subsoil. Since moisture Is the main agent by which tho roots of plants get their food it Is necessary that tho soil be deep to get the best results. Uy plowing n deep soil It will b pulverized nnd aerated, which Is also necessary for a good root growth. BROOD COOPS FOR CHICKENS Directions Given for Construction of Cheap and Effective Pens for Llttlo Chicks. The accompanying drawing gives uu Idea of how quickly and cheaply any number of brood compartment coops can be constructed. It shows only two sections, but any desired number can be put together, saving material. We suggest that only thrco nt the most le united, as they are easier handled when desiring to re move to new quarters, suys a writer Ih an exchange. The one section shows tho door closed nnd button turned to hold lid up ut night. The other section shows tho door down for daytime to allow tho hen and young free range Ih the orchard or pasture, wherever the coops may bo located. . A very convenient size both for cut ting material and the handling ot completed coop' has been found to be ns follows: Twenty-four Inches high In front, IS inches high nt rear, 18 Inches deep from front to back. One Inch holes enn be bored nt each end nnd n line of them through tho top of tho door, as indicated by the closed door In drawing. Also, If the rool bonrds are, allowed to project ovei back wall several Inches It Is not n bad idon to bore n few holes In the hack wall. Some farmers have beer very thoughtful and constructed sltn liar coops during the cold, wet, sleotj weather tho last winter when nothing In tho field could bo done, and thej are nhead much when tho fields do mnnd so much time and attention nl this senson. Shingles or prepared roofing, what ever Is convenient, will make nn Idea' Homemade Brooders. covering for tho roofs. Wo have seen where n farmer lmvlng n hnlf dozer such constructed coops used galvan' lzed Iron from an old shed In town f.hat ho obtained for tho hauling. AVOID HIGH-FLAVORED FEEDS Onions Have Been Fed in Sufficient Quantities to Affect Eggs Color ' of Yolk Influenced. In extreme cases the, flavor nnd odor of the feed have been Impnrted to tho egg. Onions have been fed Id sufficient qunntlty to bring nbout this effect. Those who desire to market a 'Jrst-class article should not give feeds of high and objectionable flavor tc 1 their flocks. In no ense should tainted feed be allowed to enter the ration. Feed nlsc has nn Influence on the color of the yolk, nccordlng to the United States Jepartment of agriculture. Corn fed exclusively will give n deep yellow oi i highly colored yolk, while wheat fed ilone will produce n much lighter yolk. A fairly high-colored yolk Is usually preferred and can usually bo Dbtnlncd by feeding a moderate amount of corn. Plenty of green feed , ilso enriches the color of the yolk. 00 NOT OVERCROWD POULTRY Few Hens In Small Yard Do Better Than Larger Number in Samo Space Room for Each. Hotter results will bo obtained fron? a few hens In n small yard than froir a larger number In the same yard. Tin backyard poultry flock rarely will con slst of more than to 25 hens, and ir many cases only a half-dozen hens art kept. For a llock of 20 to 25 hens space of not less than 25 by 30 feet If required. From 20 to !i0 square feel per lien should usually be allowed. ' LARGE BREEDS GROW SLOWLY Brahmas and Cochins Are Profitable Where There Is Demand for Heavy Fowls. The biggest breeds of poultry, like Itruhmns and Cochins, grow more slowly thnn the medium-sized breeds und therefore nre not ready for market as soon, but they weigh more nnd are profitable where tho market demands a large-sized fowl. NEEDED EXERCISE BY FOWLS Hens Can Be Kept Busy by Scatter. Ing Grain In Litter on Dry and Clean Floor. Ho suro thnt the floor of the hen house Is dry nnd reasonably clean and covered with threo or four Inches of clean litter in which grnln enn bo scattered so that tho fowls can ob tain exerclso scratching for It. pF appetite, W H The flavor digestion ! f H lasts-and the j electrically- 4 sealed V A p package brines j "TJ WRSGLEYS to you with all its goodness perfect ly preserved. 1 m Sealed Tight- MARTIN AMD MARTIN ESTAB. 1882 mii CHICAGO TOOTl Nebraska rf tit Xtrtottf Iff w fend dfd Htor and Ofllf Flitar llotui IB Atntncs. ii v veto J' j uier ai,uuu 04a tr u vtu OMAHA FIXTURE & SUPPLY GO.
