Remedy for Roup in Fowls
Towards the last of December, 1879,
I found one hen sick out of 48 or 49.
Whatwu the matter with herV For
Information I consulted Bolon Robin'
son's Facts for Farmers and the Family
Circle," and found it to be roup. I took
her from the nest and held her head over
smoking sulphur; soon after, I gave her
nearly one teaspoonful of kerosene oil,
and, later, the same amount of rum in a
tablespoonful of warm water. Next
day I found a Becond one sick and fol
lowed the same treatment with her. In
two days afterwards the rest of the flock
were all sick. I could not dose all in
the same manner, so after they went to
roost I took an old-fashioned iron bak
ing kettle, put in it some live, red-hot
coals, and put it into the hen-house in a
box two feet from the floor. Then I
threw on the coals three single hand
fuls of sulphur, closed the door and
left them to their fate. Nearly an hour
later I went to see how they fared, and
found their feathers wet from what they
had thrown out of their mouths, but
their breathing was quite free from any
rattle. I smoked them every night for
three weeks and every one lived, and we
had all the eggs we needed to use. One
of my neigbors, who had about 70 fowls
affected in the same way, killed and
gave away all he had, though they were
not any worse than mine were. After
they had got over the first attack, I
watched them closely and whenever
any signs of its reappearance were noted
I smoked them again, keeping it up
until May, 18S0. B.
Very Handy.
A man living near Bloomfield, N. J.,
has contrived an arrangement by the
use of which he is enabled to get an
hour or more extra sleep in the morning.
In many ways it takes the place of a
domestic servant. He is awakened in
the morning by a shrill whistle, which
tells him that all is ready for him to get
breakfast. He dresses and goes into the
kitchen, and there finds a bright, fresh
fire, a kettle full of boiling water, and
other conveniences for preparing his
morning meal. All this is accomplished
by means of an alarm clock with
weights, a piece of wire, a sheet of sand
paper, and some matches. Paper, wood,
and coal are put into the grate of his
cooking stove, and a teakettle filled with
water ; and having a tiny whistle fitted
into the nozzle of the kettle, it is placed
on the stove. By setting the alarm in
the clock he can . have fire any time he
wished. When the alarm in the clock
goes off, a weight falls and hits the
wire ; the wire moves and scrapes the
matches fastened to it on the sandpa
per ; the matches light the paper in the
stove, the paper fires the wood and coal,
and soon a fire is under way. In a
little while the water in the teakettle
boils, and then the tiny whistle gives
the note of warning that everything
is ready and it is time to get up.
tSTPotato tops are recommended by
Mr. W. J. Fowler as an excellent winter
covering for strawberries. They are
heavy enough not to be blown off, are
free from weed seeds, and not liable to
pack down over the plants to smother
them, as straw or hay sometimes does.
Besides, in the spring they will usually
be rotted sufficiently not to need re
moval, breaking into small bits as they
are trodden underfoot in working at
the beds.
giTDo not undertake to keep sheep in
low, undrained lands. They will sure
ly contract disease, and a sick sheep is
about as mean a thing as one can own,
not excepting a sick chicken.
Advertising Cheats.
It has become so common to write the
beginning of an elegant, interesting arti
cle and then run into some advertise
ment that we avoid all such cheats and
simply call attention to the merits of
Hop Bitters in as plain honest terms as
possible, to induce people to give them
one trial, as no one who knows their
value will ever use anything else.

A Foolish Mistake.
Don't make the mistake of confound
ing a remedy of acknowledged merit
with the numerous quack medicines
that are now so common. SVe speak
from experience when we say that
Parker's (linger Tonic la a sterling
health restorative and will do all that is
claimed for if. We have used It our
selves with the happiest results for
Rheumatism and when worn out by
overwork. Bee adv. Times. 2 4t
tFWe are strongly disposed to re
gard that person as the best physician
who does most to alleviate human suf
fering. Judged from this standard, Mrs.
Lydia E. Pinkham, 233 Western aven
ue, Lynn, Mass.. is entiteld to the front
rank, for . her Vegetable Compound is
