Mrs. Craigle's Address.
An amusing story of the late Mrs.
Craigie, the noted novelist, was told
the other day at the Author's club in
New York.
"Whoa Mrs. Craigie was in America
last yea*," sajd the editor, "she was
invited to make an address at a cer
tain meeting. She accepted the Invi
tation, but her name, through some
oversight, was put far down on th«
programme, and worse than that, the
chairman, a rather stupid person. In
troduced before her some speakers
who were not on the programme at
all.
"In short, it was close onto 11
o'clock when the chairman, with a
pleasant smile, bowed and said:
" 'Mrs. Craigie, the eminent author
of "Some Emotions and a Moral," will
now give *.s her address.'
"Mrs. Craigie rose and said, calmly:
"My address is No. 56 Lancaster
Gate, llyde Park, W., London, and 1
now wtsb you all good-night, for I am
far from home."

Acocrding to the Cologne Gazette,
there are in Germany more insurance
policies than inhabitants —80,000,000
policies, as against a population of un

large proportion are insured in two
or more companies. The Indemnities
paid by ©erman insurance companies
amount to about $24,000,000 a month.

A FOOD CONVERT.
Good Food the True Road to Health.
The pernicious habit some persons
still have of relying on nauseous drugs
to reltere dyspepsia, keeps up the
patent medicine business and helps
keep up »he army of dyspeptics.
Indigestion dyspepsia —is caused
by what is put into the stomach in
the way of improper food, the kind
that so taxes the strength of the di
gestive organs they are actually crip
pled.
When this state Is reached, to resort
to stimulants is like whipping a tired
horse with a big load. Every addi
tional effort he makes under the lash
increases his loss of power to move
the load. .
Try helping the leaving
off heavy, greasy, indigestible food and
take on Grape-Nuts—light, easily di
gested, full of strength for nerves and
brain, in every grain of it. There's no
waste of time nor energy when Grape-
Nuts is the food.
"I am an enthusiastic user of Grape-
Nuts and consider it an ideal food,"
writes a Maine man:
"I had nervous dyspepsia and was
all run down and my food seemed to
do me but little good. Prom reading
an adv. I tried Grape-Nuts food, and
after a few weeks' steady use of it,
felt greatly improved.
"Am much stronger, not nervous
now, and can do more work without
feeling so tired, and am better every
way.
"I relish Grape-Nuts best with cream
and use four heaping teaspoon fuls at
a meal. I am sure there are thou
sands of persons with stomach trou
ble who would be benefited by using

MARKETING LIVE POULTRY.
Some Points to Consider to Secure ins
Best Returns.
In all large cities there Is a constant
demand throughout the year for all
kinds of live poultry. A large propor
tion of this live stock is absorbed by
the Jewish trade, as orthodox Jews
will not use meat of any kind unless
it is killed by a certain method under
the direction of a rabbi. Each large
market has a slaughter house, where
animals and birds are slaughtered ac
cording to these prescribed rites. The
best prices for live poultry are secured
at the time of the Jewish holidays, the
dates of which vary from year to year.
They can be ascertained through any
commission house or dealer.
Occasionally the price of live poultry
is as high as for dressed stock, and
under these conditions it is a waste'
of time to dress the birds before ship
ment. This is particularly true if the
market is near at hand, as the birds
will not shrink much when being
shipped but a short distance.
For shipping live poultry to market
well-constructed crates are perticular
ly desirable, says the Montreal Herald.
They should be of sufficient size to
avoid causing discomfort to the birds,
yet small enough to permit easy hand
ling by expressmen and others. Long
crates should be equipped with solid
cross partitions to prevent the birds
being thrown together at one end
whpn the crate is tipped in handling.
Failure to observe this simple precau
tion often results in the loss of a num
ber of birds in each shipment. All
crates should be thoroughly ventilated,
as in crowded express cars they are
frequently piled one above another,
and many birds are smothered iu this
way.
AVOID MEDICINES.
Poor Practice to Dope Fowls to Keep
Away Disease.
Some people follow the practice of
putting medicine in the drinking
water of the fowls. They imagine that
it is keeping away disease. As well
think of putting medicine in the drink
ing water of human beings. We know
that the way to keep any creature
healthy is to give that creature good
living conditions and good food, with
sunlight and exercise. If that will
not induce a '/ody to remain healthy
nothing else will.
I always avoid the use of drugs in
the water that is given the fowls, and
I have no faith in them at all, says
a writer in Farmers' Review. Some
say put them into kill the germs. If
the germs are about, boil the water
and that will kill them without injur
ing the intestines of the fowls. The
membranes of the fowls are very ten
der, anyway, and I imagine that they
are very easily hurt. lam certain
that much injury has been done first
and last by putting powerful drugs in
the food and drink of the poultry. Med
icines should be used only when the
fowls are sick and not when they arc
well. I have not much faith in them
even when the fowls are sick.
Don't Be in a Hurry.
I would advise producers not to de
moralize the market by rushing in
their honey too early; and also ship
ping to unknown parties, writes a
beekeeper in Farm Journal. I bavr

CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER I, 1906
LIGHT VS. DARK HONEY.
The Flavor of the Latter Is Preferred
by Some.
While those of cultivated taste, who
are wonted to the very best that the
culinary art can give us, much prefer
and praise only the lighter grades of
honey, like that from basswood,
clover, alfalfa, white and black sago
and the inesquite, yet there are others
—and I have known not a few such —
who prefer and always select the dark
honey when they can get it, says Prof.
A. J. Cook, in California Cultivator.
Such people prefer the flavor which is
always present in the darker grades
of honey. 1 have one friend, a college
professor and long a colleague, who
always preferred buckwheat honey,
and laid in his supply in the late fall
when he could get this kind. While
I was glad to supply him this, I always
laughed at him and expressed surprise
at his taste. The golden rod honey
and other honey from the autumn wild
flowers in the east, though not quite
as dark as that from the buckwheat,
are highly colored and somewhat pun
gent in flavor. Here belongs the am
ber honey of our wild buckwheat of
California. While most will prefer the
white grades of honey and others who
will prefer honey of the darkest hue,
like buckwheat, the wideawake bee
keeper will be on the sharpest lookout
for customers, especially of these lat
ter classes, for thus he may gain a
market for all kinds of honey at good
prices. If a person thinks that buck
wheat honey is the best, or if he pre
fers the amber-colored honeys, he will
make no objection to paying the best
market price for honeys of those
grades. The friend I referred to above
never objected to giving me a first
class price for buckwheat honey. In
deed, it would hardly bo consistent to
claim that a honey i 3 first-class cr of
the best quality and yet request that
a lower price be asked for it.
Another point of interest in this re
lation has to do with the grading of
honey. The up-to-date beekeeper will
see to it that his honey is kept by
itself, for it will always bring the high
est figures in the market. Later in the
season, as the bees commence to
gather from sources which give amber
colored honey, the whiter grades will
all be extracted that the amber honey
may be kept by itself. In this way
the grade of the lighter honey will
not be lowered. In California the bee
keeper cannot be too careful in ex
tracting to keep his sage and alfalfa
honey entlrejy separate from that
from the wild buckwheat. It is even
more important that the still darker
buckwheat honey be kept by itself. It
is hardly necessary to suggest that
these darger grades of honey are just
as suitable for wintering the bees as
is any that is produced. Thus it be
hooves the beekeeper to extract the
lighter honey and let the bees fill up
the combs with the darker varieties in
the later part of the season for their
own food during the winter.
With the beekeeper, as with those
in any department of agriculture, it ia
important to grade carefully. There
are few points which the beekeeper
should study with more thoroughness
than that of grading. If he is produc
ing extracted honey he has only color
to guide him in making up his grades.
If, on the other hand, he is working
for comb honey, then he must have a
lookout not only for color, but for the
number of uncapped cells, complete
ness of the sections and the general
appearance of the same.
ROOSTS AND NESTS.
Here Is a Good Arrangement for the
Poultry House.
The nests are about 14 inches square
and 20 inches above the floor. The
platform, A, is three feet wide by
Plan of Roosts and Nests.
seven feet six inches long, the roosta
being of the same length and 22 inches
by two. For heavy breeds to enable
them to reach the roost more easily
a board to serve as a step should be
fastened by means of hinges either to
t.ho partition wall or to the platform.
BEES AND POULTRY.
Plum trees planted in the poultry
yard benefit both tree aud hens.
Hor.ey that is sealed will stand
much more dampness than that which
is unsealed.
Nothing will make hens lay more
eggs and develop young pullets faster
than green cut bone.
All propolis, or bee glue, should be
carefully removed from each section.
This is easiest done with an old
table knife.
The honey should be piled a few
Inches off the floor, and a little out
from the wall; otherwise (hat near the
bottom and side of the room will ac
cumulate moisture.
More sour milk than you know what
lo do with? Set a panful of it where
the hens can get at it, and see how
tuickly it wiil disappear. You couldn't
