The Plymouth K'ock is pood enouph
for anybody ami it has not been neces
sary to brinp nut a lot of different
colored varieties. Yet ill addition to
the oripinal barred there is the pure
white and the bulT. In dressinp, these
two varieties do not show dark pin
feathers. The fancier who deliphts
to breed for farm anil feather will find
ample opportunity with the barred
Plymouth ltoek. The most prominent
breeders follow a system of double

duce cockerels and another for pul

If a man can make a reasoi.aliiu
profit out of ten hens, and there ran
be no question but, what he can, there is
110 reason why he cannot make lnu
times as much out. of a thousand liens,
provided he pives them the same care
and attention. Few, however, are pre.
pared to do this, and it is for this rea
son that so many failures occur with
u greater number. With larpe rnnpe,
a few hens will take care of themselves
and make up for a pood deal of neglect
that would prove fatal to success with
a large number That there is money
in poult ry no one can doubt, but to pet
the most out of it one must have ex
perience and learning sufficient to cn
uble him to use feed, labor and nil to
advantage. O. p. Hennctt, in Farm

Kach time the horse comes into
the stable the feet should be lifted
und cleaned out with n hook. Where
this is done there will be far fewer
cases of nail prick, for it is a very
common thing for a nail to lie along
side of the frog, or in the cleft, do
ing no harm until the horse happens
to tip the nail in pawing; then it is
stepped upon and the mischief is
done. This practice also saves horses
from becoming troubled with
"thrush," for the disease is noticed
at its inception and is then easily
cured by application of calomel and
the more careful cleansing of the

' A good way to give the poultry water
'in the w inter is to pet a five-gallon oil
can with a faucet near the bottom. Fill
it with water and set it on the stove
:until the water is rather warm. Then
jWrap the can in old blankets or a piece
of old carpet and set it on a block in
the poultry house. Turn the faucet so
it will drip rapidly but not run a stream,
putting a pan under to catch the drip.
Water in such a can will keep warm
from morning till night and the fowls I

Representative Prownlow, of Ten
nessee, is taking an active interest
in his bill which appropriates
000.000 for the improvement of the
public roads of the country. It is
what is known as the "Good Koads
Hill. In recent years the people ui
the south have .shown a commenda
ble determination to improve th'j
public highways. The matter has
been discussed frequently at good
roads conventions, meetings of farm
ers and by organized bodies. Mr.
Prowulow said recently that in u
short while there would be a good
roads organization in every county
in the I'nited States. With this as a
backing, he feels that there is more
hopj fur the bill than would be sup
posed. Among the more ardent
champions of the measure is l!epr
tentative Hepburn, of Iowa, one of
the most influential republicans of
the house. The entire Maryland del
egation is in favor of the bill, as wcli
I as the delegations from most of the
middle western Mates.
The bill provides fur the appropri
ation of $:m,o()0,ko for the improve
ment of the roads, the plan being for
the state and county, where the im
provement is made, to furnish half
the cost, the general government pay
ing the other half.
After this movement has been suc
cessfully launched each congressman
will have a pressure brought to bear
upon him by his constituent, that
will be a powerful incentive to him
to vote for the bill. It is a matter
appealing directly to the country
constituent and to the agricultural
classes. That they will generally fa
vor it. goes without epiestion nn.1
members of congress representing
rural districts are already receiving
appeals to vote for the bill.
"There is no reason why the bill
should not pass," said Representative
P.rownlovv, recently, "although I re
alize that the matter must be worked
tip gradually. As soon as the coun
try is aroused on the subject you will
find that all the country people will
Vie for the bill. It in a well-known
fact that nearly all the public money
Fpcnt for improvements goes to the
cities, where all the public buildings
are located. The country people are
not getting their share of it. About
the only incentive they have to im
prove the roads is the rural free de
livery service. This has aided th"
cause considerably, but other help Is
needed.
"If congress can appropriate money
for the improvement of rivers and
harbors, there is no reason why ap
propriation should not be made for
.the improvement of the nublic high
ways, which are just as useful to th'
people. Congress has spent $441,000..
(100 for the improvement of rivers and
harbors und not a cent for the im
provement of roads. The rivers and
harbors bill passed at the last session
of congress carried 11 total that was
equivalent to u per capita tax of one
dollar on the citiens of the I'nited
Stales. No slate or county, or both
combined, levies such a tax on the
people. (If course, the improvement
of the rivers is all right and should
be (i ! rt :i k 1 11, but at the tame time
I In lievc some of the money could

l ei teniU'lit of the public roads."

I took treatment daily from my family phy

Restorative Nervine and Nerve and Liver

had no appetite, couldn't sleep and was
scarcely able tu get around. My weight at
this time was one hundred and twenty-four

was a changed man, my appetite was beyond
control, my sleep was refreshing, my strength
renewed and my weight was one hundred

The opposition here, which was

There was a lurge class of men, em
ployers and employed, who made
their living by the manufacture of lit
tle shrines for the worshipers nt the
great temple of Diana. I heir busi
ness was actually falling olt as a re
sult of the increasing numbers of
those'of "the Way," as Christianity
was called. Every convert meant the
loss of n customer. Their pockets
were touched and their wrath was
amused. Observe the witness Deme

work. He makes his appeal (1) to

In the magnificent temple of Diana
ami the worship centered there. It
was tint only religious, but patriotic
pride, for Hie temple was one of the
wonders of the ancient world.
When Demetrius was done a great
cry of indignation was raised. An ini
tio use crowd was gathering to see
what the trouble was. The bourse
shouting continued, ami the whole
throng surged onward into an enor
iii.s open air amphitheater wjiich
would have held -1,000 persons, and
is still to be seen on the western
slope of Mount Prion. Here the con-fii-ion
increased rather than dimin
ished. The instigators of the mis
chief had sieed two of l'aui's help
ers, and they were now somewhere
in the midst of that bowling mob.
Paul determined to go in himself nt
all costs and meet the mob face to
face, but the disciples refused to let
him, and the Asiarchs, knowing the
danger, urged him not to go in, nnd
so his life was saved. The friendship
of these lioman officers is nn indica
tion of the place that Paul bad won
for himself and Christianity at
Kphesus. The attitude of the Itoman
officials in general was not hostile to
Christianity nt this time. The fear
of the Jews that the mob, failing to
distinguish between Jews nnd Chris
tinns, would end in an anti-Jewish
riot, was responsible for Alexander's
futile attempt to explain matters.
