A short time ago a young farmer re marked in my hearing that he had re cently lost seven hens by their dying Dii the roost. I suggested that they iiiilit have eaten something harmful, but be thought not. I then said that the hens might have had something mi them besides feathers. He replied that he had made a thorough examin ation of his llock of poultry and could dial only a very few lice, not even enough to make the hens sick, to say nothing of killing them. 1 made one more suggestion which .seemed tohitthe mark, lsaid it might lie red lice, or red mites, as they were sometimes called, that were causing the tumble. I explained that these little pest work only at night because their deeds were evil. They left their hiding places when the hens went t roost and returned when they became gorged with blood drawn from the hens. I advised him to look on the under side of the roosting poles and to e .amine any boards that might be lu-ar where the poles were attached to the hen house, and he probably would find a quanity of the red mites. lie looked, and discovered the cause of the death of his liens. The mites had collected in places in such numbers that the boards looked as though they had been sprinkled with blood, and they had with the life blood of his hens incased within the transparent forms of the mites. When lie saw tills multitude of bfood suckers begot busy. lie took boiling water and threw it on every part of the hennery where he thought I any of the pest might be hiding. men lie carefully painted all the sur face of the roosting poles with keuosene and doueh the fluid thoroughly where the poles met the sides of the build ing. Now his hens are laying instead of dying. Thero Is always a reason" and a remedy.

More beneficial results have come from lllnois farmers' clubs than any other educational organization in the state. There are now three of these clubs in two townships of Kane county, and they are lilcdy to be kept up for many years to come. The clubs are regularly organized, with a full set of oflicers, the member ship varying from twenty to thirty farmers' families. The meetings are held in the farm homes of the members, first at one place, and then another, until during a winter season the same set of people have been drawn together many times. It is thus seen that both men and women, and the boys and the girls are participants at these meetings. They all take part In the discussions. What one member finds out by some cisual conversation that bears on agriculture is imparted to other mem bers who are present at a meeting. J, I,. ( i rail', in N. Y. Tribune Farmer.

The lands wo aro going to call your attention to are in tho northwest part of Texas. Tako tho map of Toxas and you can readily seo that we are trying to locate you about G30 miles from Kansas City and .000 miles from Galveston the nearest seaboard harbor of any importance, whore freight rates iy water to England are practically the same as from Now York. To transport a bushel of wheat from Hastings, Neb., to Now York by rail will cost you -iGJc per 100 lbs or 28.9 per bu. From tho Panhandle to Galveston tho rato is 9c per bu. o1' a saving of 10.0c por bu. Can you figure the advantage that tho farmer iu the Panhandle has over you? To show you the great advantage the Panhandle has over you, wo want to quote a few ilguros on tho sowing and yield of wheat ftt the experiment station, a short distance from whoro wo offer you these groat bargains in land.

Now you have tho figures before you for consideration. It will take you but a few minutes to compute the difference that the Panhandle farmer gets more for his grain than you do. If tho experiment station can reach such results iu farming and doing it right, you can do tho same thing, or can raise ." bu. less and beat anything you can iu this part of tho country. With an average of 21 inches of rainfall for tho last twelve years, nothing stands in tho road of farmers becoming independent iu a short time aud iixing himself so ho can live at ease. Is it hot iu tho Panhandle, is asked by people who are not familiar with conditions in that country. Wo will say that tho average in the hottost months iu tho year, for twelve years is as follows: June, 72;v,Iiil.v, 7."), August, 72, and September, 08. This government report was by tho U. S. weather ob.server (Thos. J. Cousodim), at Amorilla, Texas, right in tho centor of the Panhandle. Water is procured in sand and gravel and is of the very purest quality aud has proven very beneficial for tho general health of mankind. Wo aro making theso trips to the Panhandle every First and Third Tuesdays iu each month, and would bo pleased to seo you and talk it over with you, as we cannot tell you all iu a short ad liko this.

"Speaking of yarns," John Andrews, a former newspaper man, in the Osage (la.) Press, "thev are certainly gold mines in this country. They are full all tho time and to got a room iu the good towns It Is necessary to send two or three days ahead. At Ked field at least twenty men were unable to get rooms at either hotel, nud had to find plaees at private homes. I was among the late arrivals and was taken to sev eral private houses before we found one whose spare beds were not taken by transients. 1 have had this same j experience several times, as have i many other commercial travelers. Hut I I had one experience that 1 cannot! help thinking about. A bunch of us went to a European hotel and asked ; for rooms. The landlord said he had but one empty bed and that was in a double room and the other bed was occupied by an Indian. I was in the lead and promptly assured him that Indians had no terrors for me, so I would take the bed. When 1 went to the room I noticed that the bed at the other end was occupied, so I quietly retired and went to sleep. When I got up in the morning I noticed femi nine wearing apparel hanging around the other bed, so when I got down to the olllce I said to the landlord: ' 'I thought you said an Indian was occupying that other bed In my room.' " 'And so there Is,' he replied, 'an Iiuiiau squaw one of the educated young ladies who has been attending college in the east and Is cm her way J buck home. She came here and wanted a room, I told her that was the one I had left and might have to put some one iu the other bed. She took the room, and you seemed so anxious last night for a bed that I didn't have the heart to turn you down Fifty cents, 1 1 -use.' Wouldn't that jar you." j Made from Pure Crape Cream ol Tartar S&fia EHU W&&p Shields Ihe Food from Alum y i .
