NOTES OF THE POULTRY YARD
Good Remedy for Many Bowel Trou
bles Found in Charcoal —Bright
Red Comb Indicates Health.
(By C. S. MILLER.)
Charcoal is an excellent corrective
of the evils of injudicious over-feed
ing, and also is a good remedy in bow
el troubles in poultry. Having won
derful absorbent powers, especially
for gases, only a small quantity should
be put in the feed hoppers at a time
on account of its absorbent nature.
It should be kept in a thoroughly dry
vessel with a close fitting cover to ex
clude the air.
If the charcoal is heated well be
fore given to the poultry it will have
a tendency to drive off impurities
which may have been absorbed, and
will be equal to fresh charcoal.
Ducklings usually start to molt
when eleven weeks of age, and it will
require about six weeks for them to
finish the process and get into good
condition again. For that reason duck
lings should be marketed at ten weeks
for after that they are more apt to
lose weight than gain it.
In turkey culture never use a gob
bler that is akin to the hens. In
breeding is the cause of much of the
"bad luck’’ in raising the young.
Ginger, if fed to poultry for too
long a time is apt to weaken the di
gestive organs, while asafoetida and
k I WOl
One Week Old Squab.
gentian are excellent digestive stim
ulants. Asafoetida, garlic and onions
have a good effect on the lungs and
bronchia.
When a fowl has a bilious look,
dysentery and then costiveness, it is
a strong indication that it is suffering
from liver troubles. When the edges
of the comb and wattles are of a
purplish red it is a sign of indiges
tion. Fowls in good health always
have a bright red comb.
Before they sell the eggs received,
commission men take them to a dark
room, where they are candled. The
egg is held up in the left hand before
a strong light and the top shaded
with the right hand. If the air cell
—is small they know the egg is fresh.
If the albumen is noted to be slightly
thin and watery and the air space
greatly enlarged, it is put down as
two months old. About a month or
two after that the air space reaches
about the center of the egg and it is
declared worthless.
Fei grass, such as is found in the
bottom of creeks of Long Island,
seems to be a natural food for ducks.
Inland breeders substitute steeped clo
ver hay or alfalfa and some chop *up
green rye, oats or corn. Where there
is a scarcity of green feed more bran
must be fed in the ration.
Richardson, a former English au
thority, said the ideal gander has
large dimensions, active gait, lively
and clear gray eyes, an ever ready
and hoarse voice, and a demeanor
full of boldness. The goose should
be chosen for her weight of body,
steadiness of deportment and breadth
of foot —a quality said to indicate the
presence of other excellencies.
The American standard of perfec
tion classifies the weights of geese as
follows: Toulouse and Embden, ad
ult gander, 25 pounds; young gander,
20 pounds; adult goose, 23 pounds;
young goose, 18 pounds; African ad
ult gander, 20 pounds; young gander,
16 pounds; adult goose, 18 pounds;
young goose, 14 pounds; Chinese and
Canada, adult gander, 16 pounds;
; young gander, 12 pounds; adult goose,
14 pounds; young goose, 10 pounds;
Egyptian, adult gander, 15 pounds;
young gander, 12 pounds; adult goose,
12 pounds, young goose, 9 pounds.
The age of a fowl cannot always be
told by the size of the spurs. In the
yard of the writer is a three-year-old
hen that could easily be mistaken for
a yearling hen or pullet But there
is a dull, heavy look under the eyes of
the old bird which an expert would de
tect at a glance. The best plan is to
band all the birds and a record kept
of their ages.
Keep Posted on Prices.
If one has any quantity of poultry
to sell, it is well to keep in corre
spondence with some good commis
sion merchant or manager of some
good market, so as to be posted az
to prices, and not be at the mercy of
the itinerant huckster, who travels
ever the country to procure poultry
at any price that he can get the poul
try raiser to accept.

Chinese Artist.
In the fourth century A. D. there
lived in China an artist, who was alsc
a poet. His name was Ku K’ai-chih.
In London there is a painting, a long
scroll, which for at least a thousand!
years has been treasured as his work;
and though that cannot be proved, it
is in all probability a painting by his
hand. One day, we are told, he in
trusted to a friend a chest, full oF
paintings which he had collected. For
better security he fastened the lid of
the chest and sealed the fastening
with a seal. The friend, however,
coveted the paintings, and hit on the
slmple expedient of removing the
bottom of the box and so abstracting
them. When the box was restored to
Ku K’ai-chih, he broke the seal and 1
found it empty. But he suspected
no theft and expressed no surprise.
Beautiful paintings, he said, communi
cale with supernatural beings; they
have changed their form and flown'
away, like men when they join the
immortals. —Laurence Binyon, in the-
Atlantic.
FAMILY OF FIVE
All Drank Coffee From Infancy.
It is a common thing in this country
to see whole families growing up with
nervous systems weakened by coffee
drinking.
That is because many parents do
not realize that coffee contains a drug
—caffeine —which causes the trouble.
(The same drug is found in tea.)
“There are five children in my fam
ily,” writes an lowa mother, “all of
whom drank coffee from infancy up
to two years ago.
“My husband and I had heart trouble
and were advised to quit coffee. We
did so and began to use Postum. We
aow are doing without medicine and
Are entirely relieved of heart trouble.
(Caffeine causes heart trouble when
continually used as in coffee drink
ing.) v
"Our eleven-year-old boy had a -weak
digestion from birth, and yet always
craved and was given coffee. When
we changed to Postum he liked it and
we gave him all he wanted. He has
been restored to health by Postum and
still likes it.”
Name given by Postum Co., Battle
Creek,. Mich. Write for the little
nook, “The Road to Wellville.”
Postum comes in two forms:
Regular Postum —must be boiled.
Instant Postum is a soluble powder.
A teaspoonful dissolves quickly in a
cup of hot water and, with cream and
sugar, makes a delicious beverage
instantly. Grocers sell both kinds.
“There’s a reason” for Postum.
