CURES PIMPLES EASILY.
Simple Remedy that Claars Skin
Quickly of all Eruptions.
For several weeks past S. E. Thor-
ley has done a big business in selling
Hokara, the skin healer that has
won so many friends in Meyersdale.
It has been found to heal not
only all minor skin trouble like
pimples, blackheads, acne, herpes,
scaly scalp, complexion blemishes,
. | itching feet, piles, etc., but also the
worst ulcers or even chronic eczema
| and salt rheum. There has yet to be
found any form of wound or disease
affecting the skin or mucous mem-
brane that Hokara does not help,
and its action is so quick that those
who try it are simply delighted with
it right from the start.
In spite of its unusual curative
powers, the price is trifiing. To con-
vince every one of its merits S. E.
Thorley will sell a liberal jar for
25¢c. And remember that if you do
not think it does what it claims,
you get your money back. You cer-
tainly can afford to try it on this
plan. ad

STAPLE FOOD FOR POULTRY
Grain Will Be Used as Long as Fowls
Are Kept on Farms—Hen Must
Have Certain Varieties.
Grain is the staple food for poultry,
will be used for that purpose as long
as fowls are kept on farms; but hens
cannot give good results on grain
alone. It is beneficial to them, and
will be at all times relished, but the
demands of the hen are such as to
call for a variety. In the shells of
eggs, as well as their composition, are
several forms of mineral matter and
nitrogen, which can only be partially
obtained from grain.
Even though grains carry in com-
position for a long time, hens will be-
gin to refuse it, as they may be over-
supplied from other sources. For this
reason they will accept a change of
food which is of itself evidence that
the best results for his hens can only
be obtained from a variety of food.
Corn and wheat may be used as food
with advantage, but must be given
as a portion of the ration only, and
not made exclusive articles of diet.
In grain the principle articles or ele-
ments required to keep a hen in good
laying condition are found, and it is
for this reason that your hens may
continue to lay for some time if only
given grain, provided they find the
other elements necessary while run-
ning around the farm. But the trou-
ble with this manner of feeding is
that it is too uncertain,
You are taking the chance of the
hen finding the other elements re-
quired. No hen has ever laid an egg
unless sh:
and mirc ral kingdoms. Grain can re-
present the vegetable kingdom, bugs !
or insects, the animal, and grit or
oyster shell, the mineral. It is abso-
lutely necessary that every hen par-
take of these elements before she can
produce a single egg.
HOPPER FOR LITTLE CHICKS
Device Illustrated May Be Enlarged
and Used for Older Stock—Con-
struction Is Simple.
The hopper illustrated below will
hold one bushel of feed, and is intend-
ed for growing chicks, though by en-
larging the size it may be used for old-

er stock. It is well, however, to keep
the dimensions of the feed opening
the same, this opening being specially
designed to prevent waste. The ends
are made of one-inch material, and
the rest of the hopper of half-inch
stuff. Any lumber that is at hand
may be used, and the construction is
so simple that anyone able to use a
hammer and saw can knock one to-
gether in a very short time.
FATTEN CHICKENS FOR TABLE
Fowls Should Be Placed in Portable
Pen Without Crowding—Feed
Sparingly for Three Days.
Prepare a portable pen by nailing
strips of lumber together to ferm a
frame, and then tacking on pieces
horizontally, so as to make an en-
closure, leaving sufficient opening to
give light and ventilation. The pen,
writes a Virginia man in the Epito-
mist, should be flogred, and sufficient
outlet left for the droppings. A roof
should be made, and without leaks.
The whole shoul@ be made large
enough for ample accommodations,
depending upon the number of birds
to be kept in. Only fowls that are
peaceable should be kept together.
Do not overfeed at first; after two
or three days give all that they will
eat up clean, and be sure to give wa-
ter after they have finished eating.
Give buttermilk occasionally, as most
fowls like it. Sprinkle sand, gravel
or charcoal in the pen occasionally.
In from one to two weeks fowls
should be in good condition for eat-
|'ing, if there is nothing wrong with |
| them.
