Save ail the bones from the table, put
them in an old sheet-iron pan kept foi
the purpose, and brown them slightly
Then pouad them on a, rock wit ti a liae
ax, or if you can atl'ord It, buy a bone
crusher.
Bone dust should not ire mixed w-tb
the ehiokon food. It is too stlmulut
■ and is liable to cause enlargement of li
liver in hens that are not laying. But
where the hens can got it, and those that
want it, and need it, can then oa l j .
what they care for and no more.
Have a scratching place, and do not
> throw tho chicken grain down on th
I cleanest, hardest piece of ground you CH
find, but among leaves, or In straw, an
make tho hens scratch. Prepare th"
scratching ground in a place that Is shel
tered from the wind, and let it be a per
nianent affair.
There is no profit in koeping mongrels
in your poultry-yard when pure-bloods
can be had at comparatively so small an
expense. Uniform chickens are not only
prettier and thus more satisractory to
i care for, but they may be fed to a better
advantage than can a flock which is mado
up of large and small.
i Don't cheat yourself with the belief
I that once a month is often enough to
i clean out a chioken-housc. It should be
cleaned every day. or at tho farthest,
i every throe days. You might about as
well leave the droppings under tho rooßts
! ah to throw them Just outside tho door.

The Old Doctors
Drew blood, modern doctors clcanso It;
bence the increased demand for Altera
tives. It is now well known that most
diseases are duo, not to over-abundanco,
but to impurity, of the Blood; and it
is equally well attested that no blood
medicine is so efficacious as Ayer's
Sarsaparilla. ■„
" Ono of my children had a largo sora
break out on tho leg. Wo applied
simple remedies, for a while, thinking
the sore would shortly heal. But it grew
worse. We sought medical advice, and
were told that an alterative medicine
was necessary. Ayer's Sarsaparilla ,
being
Recommended
above all others, wo used it with mar
velous results. Tho sore healed and
health and strength rapidly returned."
J. J. Armstrong, Weimar, Texas.
"I find Ayer's Sarsanuriila to be an
admirable remedy for tlio cure of blood
diseases. X prescribe it, and it does tho
work every time." ,E. L. Bator, 11. L>.,
Manhattan, Kansas.
" Wo have sold Ayer's Sarsaparilla
here for over thirty years ami always
recommend it when asked to name tho
best blood-purifier." —W. T. McLean,
Dri ggist, Augusta, Ohio.
" Ayer's medicines continue to be tba
standard remedies in spite of all com
petition."—T. W. Bachmond, Bear
