Maximum Egg Production Insured by Breeding Pens. ! The segregation of the best produc- , ing birds for mating is the purpose of | the breeding pen. Although the first | three months of the year together constitute the logical mating period, selection and observation should be a year-round proposition on the part of the poultryman. The Pennsylvania State College School of Agriculture and Experi- ment Station has adopted pedigree records as the easiest system of se- lecting birds for mating purposes. With these records such factors as the history of the dam and the sire’s dam, in so far as production is concerned, may supplement observations as to outward appearances, vitality and diseases, in selection of breeding stock. The first requisite for birds intend- ed for breeding, according to The Pennsylvania State College is strong vitality, which is shown by activity in all birds, by the cackle and song of the females and by a lusty crow and gallantry in males. A cock should never be mated to a hen which has the same weak points as his own. For instance, a cock nearly ideal in size and shape of back but slightly deficient in breast should be mated to a hen exceptional in breast development, even though she be slightly inferior in back forma- tion. Such birds will tend to offset each other’s defects. If meat produc- tion is the objective, selection should be made for size, shape and develop- ment; if egg production is the aim, the highest producer should be select- selected. Iodine, Deadliest of Germ Killers, New Family Remedy. Iodine as an antiseptic is recom- mended for a place in the medicine closet of every household by Dr. W. E. Forsythe, head of the health serv- ice of The Pennsylvania State Col- lege. He urges its use for first treat- ment of all skin abrasions, saying that physicians now recognize iodine as one of the best materials known for preventing infection and blood poisoning. According to Dr. Forsythe, in the European war iodine is now being used for wounds almost to the exclu- sion of other antiseptics. A single shipment of 300,000 pounds of the pure crystal was sent to one govern- ment for hospital use, he said. “Iodine should be used around the barn,” also he added, ‘for dressing wounds on live stock. It is especially valuable to prevent development of ‘lockjaw’ from wounds containing sta- ble and barnyard dirt.” Dr. Forsythe advised using the tincture of iodine at one-half the usual strength, i. e., five per cent, or weaker. He said it should be kept in bottles having glass or rubber stop- pers. He recommended painting the wound and around it without previous washing, and said the wound could then be left uncovered or bandaged with a clean cloth. He warned against using the so-called “colorless iodine” as a substitute for real iodine. Feather Beds. Do you know what the boys and girls of far-off Norway sometimes think when they see the dainty, feath- ery snowflakes flying through the air? If we were there when they have the first snowstorm of the season we could hear them shouting gleefully to each other, “See, O, see! Mother Hulda is shaking her feather bed.” There is a story about this Moth- er Hulda and her feather bed that is told to the little ones there. She lives, it is said, far, far above this busy world, with the clouds for her home, the sun for a lamp and fire. She is always very busy, and es- pecially so at the beginning of win- ter, for then she has to unpack her great feather bed, and after that is done she spends all of her time in shaking it. Indeed, she shakes it so much that she wears many holes in it, through which the feathers fly in all directions. The wind catches them up and carries them gently to the earth, where they cover the bare limbs, of the trees, making them beautiful, and where they spread lightly on the ground and protect the roots of the flowers.—Selected. ——Subscribe for the WATCHMAN.

Do you remember how your heart | beat faster when the circus came to "town? And how you watched the | transformation of barren lots into a tented city, alive with “pink lemon- ade” activities? Well, if you don’t you are not as young as you used to e. The Carl Hagenbeck-Wallace Cir- cus will come to Bellefonte on Wed- nesday, May 81st. For real blooded Americans the announcement is of supreme interest. It’s the old story of nothing succeeding like success. The physical parts of a great circus are just as interesting as the circus per- formance itself. The circus is a typical American institution, pre- sided over by men with dauntless courage and brains long in the serv- ice When the Carl Hagenbeck-Wallace Circus was in Europe several years ago the Kaiser obtained permission from the manager for Gen. Von Bruent and a detail of army officers to travel with the big show for a fort- night, that they might observe the business-like details by which the great institution was moved from place to place. Careful study was made of the manner in which the wagons were unloaded how several thousand meals were served daily in the canvas i hotels, and they went away declaring | they had never witnessed anything so marvelous. Gen. Von Bruent declared that in the past the army officers un- loaded their commissary wagons over the sides of the cars by means of a block and tackle, instead of rolling them down a runaway. The leaders of the European war employed Ameri- can circus methods in transporting their guns of war and supplies. During the engagement here per- formances will be given at 2 and 8 p. m. The parade is at 10 a. m. Spraying Schedule Advice for Apples, Pears, Quinces. As a guide to fruit growers the de- partment of experimental pomology at the Pennsylvania State College School of Agriculture and Experiment Station has prepared the following spray calendar for apples, pears and quinces: 1. Dormant Spray. Preferably just before buds start. Lime-sulpher so- lution diluted to a specific gravity of 1.03. For scale, blister-mite, and fungous diseases, add nicotine as in “2”, if aphids or red-bugs are hatch- ing. 2. Scab and Aphis Spray. When blossoms show pink before opening, Lime-sulpher solution, 1.01, for scab or cedar rust. Add lead arsenate paste, 3 pounds to 50 gallons, for canker worms, budmoth, and other leaf eaters. Add 40 per cent nicotine extract, one-half to three-fourths pint to 50 gallons, for oat, rosy, and green aphis, mites, red-bugs, or pear psylla. (These 2 sprays may also aid against blossom blight, by checking aphids and ants, and killing bacterial masses.) 3. First Codling Spray. To be com- pleted within 10 days after petals fall. Lime-sulphur solution, 1.008, for scab, rust, blotch, etc.; and lead arsenate paste 2 or 3 pounds to 50 gallons, for codling moth or apple worm, curculio, canker-worms, etc. Add nicotine asin “2” for green aphis, clover mite, red-bugs, ete. (Use plenty of material and fill calyces with poison.) 4. Second Codling Spray.

Materials same and pest largely the same asin “3.” Also useful against apple mag- got, leaf-hoppers, etc., where they occur. 5. Second-Brood Spray. About July 25 to August 1. Materials as in “3.” For second brood of moth, leaf-eating caterpillars, late scab infections, blotch, green aphis, ete. ——Have your Job Work done here. Medical. A Woman's Back THE ADVICE OF THIS BELLEFONTE WOMAN IS OF CERTAIN VALUE. Many a woman’s back has many aches and pains. Ofttimes ’tis the kidneys’ fault. That's why Doan’s Kidney Pills are so effective. Many Bellefonte women know this. Read what one has to say about Mrs. J. T. Gordon, 130 E. Beaver St, Bellefonte, says: “I suffered from backache and a dull, constant ache across my loins. I was in mis- ery attimes and in the morning was sore and lame. I dreaded to begin my housework. Doan’s Kidney Pills, procured at Parrish’s Drug Store, made my kidneys normal and re- lieved the backache. I have had no return of the trouble.” Price 50c. at all dealers. Don’t simply ask for a kidney remedy— get Doan’s Kidney Pills—the same that cured Mrs. Gordon. Foster- Yilburh Co., Props., Buffalo, N. Y. it Insurance.

GRAY. & SON, Bellefonte. 43-18-1y State College What Work Means. . Work is simply a means of mak- ing a living. It is that, of course, or ought to be. But it has other attri- butes that are quite as valuable, and maybe, in the ways of the spirit, more so. The work you do is an equivalent to the world, for it gives you—food, clothing, shelter, amusement, the ma- terial of this outer life. That’s the debt side of the work. But work has other sides, and the creative part of the work is its ef- fect on the worker. If you are get- ting mental training, intellectual de- velopment, and interesting occupation from your work, you are beginning to get out. of it what it is really intend- ed to give. If you use your work to help build your character you are using it the right way. Even in such minor things as punc- tuality, neatness, directness, ease of intercourse with others, temper con- trol and good manners, work offers big training. And there are greater things than that in which it should teach and help you. You will usually find that the man or woman who works is more sympathetic to the troubles of others than he or she who does nothing. The girl who works finds time to help her sisters, finds money to give to charity, finds the right word to say when the word is needed. Honor and honesty are taught by work. The business woman is not apt to tease and wheedle for what she wants, she is not likely to cheat in small or big matters, she is not given to lying. It doesn’t pay in work, for one thing. And unconsciously this tends to character building. Medical. Why “Anuric” is an INSURANCE Against Sudden Death. Before an Insurance Company will take a risk on your life the examining physician will test the urine and report whether you are a good risk. en your kidneys get sluggish and clog, you suffer from backache, sick-head- ache, dizzy spells, or the twinges and pains of lumbago, rheumatism and gout. The urine is often cloudy, full of sediment; channels often get sore and sleep is disturbed two or three times a night. This is the time you should consult some Rhesionan of wide experience—such as Dr. Pierce of the Invalids’ Hotel and Surgical Institute, Buffalo, N. Y. Send him 10 cents for sample package of his new discovery, ® Anuric.” rite him your symptoms and send a sample of urine for test. Experience has taught Dr. Pierce that ®Anuric” is the most powerful agent in dissolving uric acid, as hot water melts sugar; besides being absolutely harmless it is endowed with other properties, for it vig the kidneys in a healthy condition by thoroughly cleansing them. Being so many times more active than lithia, it clears the heart valves of any sandy substances which may clog them and checks the degeneration of the blood - vessels, as on as regulating blood pressure. ®Anuric” is a regular insurance and life-saver for all big meat eaters and those who deposit lime-salts in their joints. Ask the druggist for ® Anuric” put up by Dr. Pierce, in 50-cent packages.

Bellefonte, Pa High Explosives. Almost all high explosives have cotton as their base. It is true that very good sporting powder can be made from wood pulp; but, as the editor of Nature remarks, “the artil- lerist would be in great difficulty if he were provided with such a propellant, because in order to obtain any sort of Tegularity the nitration of the wood pulp has to be kept at a low point, and the ballistics, on which the artil- levis depends, would be quite thrown out. High explosives are cellulose high- ly nitrated—that is, highly charged with nitrogen. This process consists of immersing cotton waste (that has been repeatedly teasled, picked and dried) in a mixture of nitric and sulphuric acids, in the proportion of 8 per cent. water.. After the acids have acted for the required time they are removed. The cotton is washed repeatedly and boiled several times in water. It is then pulled, partly dried and pressed into molds. The manufacturer does his best to regulate his output, so that it shall contain approximately eleven mole- cules of nitrate to the quadruple of cellulose, as shown in the formula, or a content of nitrogen that ranges between 12.93 and 13.05 per cent. The process is delicate and com- plex, for the proportions of acids and water must be exact and all must be chemically pure. Besides this, the cellulose must be of uniform grade, which is a most difficult thing to ob- tain. —Ex.

Dry, moist, scaly tetter, pimples, boils, and other eruptions come from humors, which may be either inherited, or acquir- ed through defective digestion and as- similation. To treat these eruptions with drying medicines is dangerous. Hood’s Saraaparilla, the old reliable medicine, helps the system to discharge the humors, and improves the digestion and assimilation. Get Hood’s Sarsaparilla from your druggist. It may be confidently relied upon to do its work. It purifies the blood, tones the stomach, and builds up the whole system. It goes to the roots of diseases, and its beneficial results are permanent. It sets things to rights in the system. Remember to ask for Hood’s Sarsaparilla, because nothing else acts like it and nothing else can take its place. Attorneys-at-Law.
