Note those point, carefully: We have come to the time whoa little chicks should linvo boon hutched long past, now. Ptom now on our care will lie with developing these chicks to best advantage, for their future performance as layers this fall and winter, and also for tlie fall shows. Remember not to feed tlio little eliieks for (JO to 7(1 hours after they are hutched. Their first feed is to be line rolled oats, or crushed hard boiled eggs, gradually changing into commercial “baby chick" feed, with plenty of sour milk or clabber. As the eliieks get older they should have a dry ninsli kept before them. Thu same mash that we recommend for Inylng liens may be used, (with a little wheat brnu add ed,) or tlio following may bo made up and fed according to tlio formula: 31) lbs. wheat bran, 10 lbs. shorts, 10 lbs. moot scrap. This contains the necessary amount, of protein to nmko bone and muscle—essential to proper chick develop ment. For best growtli koop this mush before thorn nil tlio time, feed lightly of baby chick feed night and morning, and keep fresh water ami sour milk before them to drink. Watch out for mites nnd lieo this month. Keeji mites down with kerosene oil, and lice with commercial powders or sodium llorldo, which can be purchased at any drug store. Don’t forget tlio two very essential tilings—plenty of shade, and clean, fresh water. Sincerely yours, Lorinc Collins, County Home Demonstrut ion Agent. DRESDEN CLUB— This is the first year the ' Dresdon school lias had a sufficient number of club members to organise a club. They are doing splendid work, nnd making plans to raise money for an oil stove, so they will bo ready for cooking without depending on the stove to be brought to them each meeting. I linvo heard that money can be raised any time for tbo school at Dresden.. Below is n copy of tlio minutes of their last meet ing; * 'Tlie Dresden Girls' Demonstration Club held its regular meeting Thursday, May 12. Tlie mooting was called to order by tlie president. Minutes of last meeting read and approved. Tlie girls answered to roll-cull by toiling what they had done since tlie Inst meeting. All of tlie girls had done sumo garden work, and all who were present at tlie last deuionstration had made loaf bread. We discussed plans for onr club camp. Most of our club are plniitiiug to go. We talked about good bread, and how to tell when bread is good.. Tlio demon stration was on variations of bread. Wo made rolls,—Parker House rolls and cin namon rolls, using currants in same. Wo practiced same club songs nnd yells. We were asked by the demonstration agent to write a composition on “Good Broad” by the next meeting, which a good subject. Then we served some delightful rolls and adjourned. “Martha Fincher, Piesident. “Virginia Mitcham, Acting Sec’y." The following letter from a club girl shows the true club spirit: “Dear Miss Collins; 1 am getting on with my work tine.

Very often there are actual symptoms of conditions which, If understood, will convince tlio parent thnt something wrong is present, nnd an immediute examination by a doctor will show what it is, or will, on tlie other hand, show thnt the parent is overanx ious if the condition does not really exist. But if tlie child does not develop rap idly; if It is pale, undorivoiglit, delicate ami “takes cold easily;” if it has a tendency to drop its lower jaw, and to sit. with its mouth open; and more par ticularly if it sleeps with an opon mouth, it is time to suspect that there is trouble in that child’s tliront, Again, there may lie enlarged and tender gluads of the child's neck, nnd if such glands are loft without attention they may booome tu berculous, thus endangering the health and the very life of tlio child. Diseased tonsilH and adenoid growths, which almost always necompnny such tonsils, render any child having them much more liable to tnko disensos such as measles, diphtheria, scarlet (ever nnd similar ills, all of which carry a measure of danger, and which it is much easier and safer to prevent than it is to euro, la nddition to these dangers, which am caused by diseased tonsils and j adenoids, serious trouble witli the vital organs, sudi as tlio lungs and kidneys, may final ly result if tlio tonsils and adenoids are not removed. II is, therefore, the plain duty otYovory parent to tie on the lookout for such a condition in their eliildron, and, once it is suspected, immediate steps should die taken to hnve it remedied. The opera tion is simple and very soon forgotten, while if it is not done the child's whole future may bo endangered. Tlie causes of onlargod nnd diseased tonsils are not altogether understood, I• ■ ir. some doctors say tlie uso of tlio “paci fier,” which keeps tlio child’s month open after it falls asleep, dries the throat and these conditions follow. Oth er causes arc said to bo breathing bad air, especially at night; general weak ness, caused by inal-mitrition, or from anything that lowers tlio child's bodily resistance. But whatever tlio enuso, it is a fact that in an examination made of the school children in the United States Borne 3,000.000 to 5,000,000 wore found to linvo diseased or enlarged tonsils or adeniAls, and one of this number may readily be one of your own. Children of school ago who come in contact with groups of otlior children who may, in turn, linvo como in contact with diseases of a more or less contagi ous nature, nro particularly llablo to take contagious diseases, and this liabil ity is grontly increased if there are dis eased or enlarged tonsils or adenoids prosont. Of course, it is impossible to iiisuro .protection from any contagious disease, no matter wlmt precaution wo taka, but it is n fact Hint when a child has Ids tonsils nnd adonoids removed lie' lias been protected ns fnr ns possible, for there is no one otlior measure that is regarded ns more necessary in protec ting nnd preserving the health of the child. Annie L. Trnbor, Red Cross Public Health Nurse. A CURE FOR WORRY. Everybody seems to be agreed it’s not hard work that breaks men down—it’s worry. How, then, slinll tlio worry be elimi nated f I will tell you tlio greatest source of worry: Unfinished jobs. The man who is on top of ids job all the time, who drives his job instead of letting his job drive him, seldom has anything to worry about. Take tlio ease of the man who gets to the office an hour late in tho morning. He is just nliout. an hour behind all day —worried every minute beeuuso he is Into for ids appointments. The extra effort accessary to get down on time would rid him of tlie sourco of most of his worries. But lie won’t make tlio effort und so lie pays tho penalty. 1 know a man who is making a failure of everything he undert-iWos because'he putB off.doing jobs until tho patience of those who depend on him is exhaust ed. At the Inst minute he sidetracks everything else for u few days anil does this one task in a very creditable way. In tho meantime, while lie is so busy with tliis job, other tilings accumulate and they, too, are finished behind sched ule. Ho is (-/instantly worried; everybody is on his neck. At intervals of aliont three months lie lias a liear-break-doivn and hies himself off for a week’s vacation, letting every thing go to pot. Ho can't get any real rest while he is gone because lie is worried about the pile of unfinished work on his office desk. His brain is always boiling, not with constructive plans for increasing Ids bus iness, but with the petty details of unfin ished jobs. He claims that lie is “overworked,” that his customers are “ unreasonable,” that his business is a ‘ ‘ rotten ’ ’ one. Yet if ho would organize himsplf and Ids office to hmidli! matters us they come uj), he could, in two weeks’ time, clean u]i his desk. Once on top of his job ho could stay there and his worries would evaporate like a Xlve-dollar bill in a meat mnrkot. Chock up with your own experiences and observations. Tlie best cure for worry is—work. Because she smoked a pipe a Now York woman was declared unfit to have tho custody of a little grandchild. At thnt, though, we hnve known some mighty good women who smoked pipes. One, especially, wo recall, beeuuso we swiped lrer pipe once whoa we wore about knee- high to a dock and smoked it ourself. And when, shortly thereafter, she found us with both feet in the grave nnd the determination to crawl all tlio way in if wo had. strength enough, she didn’t scold or tell on ns, but set about bring ing us round again. She was old and wrinkled and wore dresses .down to l(or slioe-tops, and thought tlio word “shim my” oughtn’t to be mentioned in polite company, but outside of that she was all rigid.—Johnny Spencer, in Macon Tel egraph.

You cannot ask for better proof. Louis Douogan, grocer, 140 E. Broad St., Newnan, says: “I am nearly seventy-one years of age ana my kidneys are in fine shape; I give Doan’s Kidney Pills the credit tor this. Several years ago I sulferea considerably with my kidneys. The secretions were highly colored and contained a brick-dustdlke sediment and 1 had to get up often at night to pass them. The muscles of my back, were ail drawn up, sore and stlft. Sharp knife-like pains would catch me in my back when I stooped over. I started using Doan’s Kidney Pills and in a short time - they have had me feeling better and finally Doan’s entirely cured me. The cure has lasted." Price 60c, at all dealers.
