CHILDREN M
SffiUPDFFIGS
It is cruel to force nauseating,
harsh physic into a
sick child.
Look back at your childhood days.
Remember the “dose” mother tainted
on —cantor oil, calomel, cathartics.
How you hated them, how you fought
against taking them.
With our children it's different.
Mothers who cling to the old form of
physic simply don’t realize what they
do The children’s revolt Is well-found
ed. Their tender little “insides” are
injured by them.
If your child’s stomach, liver and
bowels need cleansing, give only deli
cious "California Syrup of Figs.” Its
action is positive, but gentle. Millions
of mothers keep this harmless “fruit
laxative" handy; they know children
love to take it; that it never falls to
clean the liver and bowels and sweet
en the stomach, and that a teaspoonful
given today saves a sick child tomor
row.
Ask at the store for a 50-cent bottle
of “California Syrup of Figs," which
has full directions for babies, children
of all ages and for grown-ups plainly
on each bottle. Adv.

REASONS FOR SO MANY POULTRY FAILURES

(By CHESLA BHERLOCK.)
Those who are Interested in poul
try raising are eager for all the in
formation that they can obtain from
those who have succeeded. But they
never consult or Investigate the meth
ods of the unfortuante one, who has
failed to be successful. If they would
do so. they would obtain more infor
mation than if they would read all
the poultry books in existence. When
they do ask the one who failed, he al
ways gives the answer that "there
isn’t any money in the poultry busi
ness.” They must investigate for
themselves, and never allow their
opinions regarding potfltry to be in
fluenced by others. The statement
that poultry is unprofitable Is without
foundation. The fact that eggs and
what the results may be. The poultry
poultry today command a better price
than ever before shows that the de
mand exceeds the production, and we
all know that where this is the case,
the production of poultry and eggs
will be profitable; of course there are
many rules that have to be followed
before this can be realized.
The great reason why so many have
failed Is because they have the wrong
idea of the business. As a rule, they
think that if one has chickens —no
matter what kind, and If he feeds
them, he ought to realize profit. They
have the idea that all one has to do
is to invest a few dollars in poultry
and before long he will be receiving
such an income from the business to
make a “living,,’’ They do not realize
that It takes knowledge and business
ability to mate a success, and that
not every person or any person can
make ft pay. The reason for all these
wrong ideas is that they have made
their "plunge" without reasoning out
business must be worked out and stud
ied continuously to succeed.
In gathering material for this arti
cle, the writer visited the poultry
yards of many successful and many
unsuccessful poultrymen. In the yards
of those that were successful the first
thing that attracted his attention was
the cleanliness of both houses and
yards. One breeder in particular used
lime so that it looked as if the drop
ping boards were concrete. He did
not sprinkle the lime around in heaps,
as Is commonly done, but he dipped a
brootn In the lime and then swept the
boards off. The result was that ev
erything was cleaned in an attractive
way, and the lime was not so easily
stirred up. If lime is sprinkled In lit
tle heaps and the fowls become ex
cited, they are liable to stir it up so
they can hardly breathe. If this hap
pens, ft will seriously retard the
growtW of young chickens. The yards
of this breeder were swept every
morning when the weather conditions
were favorable. Os course, that part
which he was cultivating for “green
food was not disturbed or the part he
had reserved for dust baths. When
Look After Fences.
Don’t forget to fix the fences. A
trip around the pasture and field
fences now and then will often save
trouble, strength and the time of hav
ing to drive the cattle back into the
pasture. Animals are almost human
when it comes to going where some
one does not want them. Remove the
suggestion, therefore, by not allowing
any sags In the wire or any loose or
decayed posts In the line. A well-kept
fence is an indication of a good
farmer.
Watch the Barn Door.
Never start to lead the horse from
his stall till you hold or fasten back
the door. Doors have been known to
swing to where they were not fasten
ed open, catching the horse's head,
the animal pulling back and breaking
his neck.
Effects of Breeding.
If you breed the mares to strong,
vigorous sires, that is the sort of off
spring you may expect; if you breed
to the other sort, you may expect
some other sort of offspring

one of the secrets of his success.
The next point that was noticed was
that every man had thoroughbred
stock. Some had paid as high as $lO
per bird. This does not seem high
to the professional poultryman, but
when the average person reaches
the point where he is willing to pay
that much, It shows he realizes what
is needed to make a success. When
one visits a poultry yard and finds
fine, thoroughbred stock he Invariably
becomes a friend of the owner. The
birds are not only pleasing to the eye,
but they actually earn their “salt-"
it has been said that a thoroughbred
bird requires less care, feed and'
equipment to make a success than a
"scrub" does. Os all the poultry
yards visited there was only one case
of a failure being made with a thor
oughbred stock, and this was due to
inattention to the flock on the part
of the owner
The next thing that was noticed In
particular was the strict attention and
good care the poultry received at the
hands of the poultryman. Every little
detail had been worked out in away
that would lower expenses and save
labor. Up-to-date supplies and appli
ances were used in every case, and by
so doing the breeder saved an enor
mous amount of hard work. The
fowls were given the best of care, not
only for the day that the writer vis
ited them, but for every day of the
year, no matter how hot or how cold
it might be. At certain hours of the
day they were given their various
feeds, and the poultryman never al
lowed himself to vary from the hour.
Where the writer found poultry a
failure, he was Impressed with the
fact of the carelessness and general
neglect on the part of the poultryman.
Many a person had never cleaned out
the poultry house since it was erected.
The droppings are a foot or two deep
and the general conditions are such
that a person could not live in them
one day without catching some dis
ease Such conditions are a disgrace
to the owner, and anyone should be
ashamed to allow anyone to see such
holes.
Try to better the condition of your
flock. Do not cast this aside without
thought, for it is given here only with
the view of helping you to better
your flock, and consequently your
pocketbook. The writer knows the
above conditions necessary for the
success of the poultry business, be
cause he has been through the “mill"
himself, and had to solve everything
alone. It was for the very kind of
advice given ir this article that he
hungered, and he is trying to give It
to the farmers now. so that poultry
will become one of the great "ends" of

Degrees of Lumpy Jaw.
There is an unnecessary prejudice
against lumpy-jaw cattle, according to
Dr. M. H. Reynolds of the Minnesota
station. A considerable percentage of
these cases are passed by government
inspectors as fit for food purposes.
Only the very bad cases, especially
those where the disease affects sev
eral organs or parts of the body, are
condemned.
Farm Machinery.
Every now and then we hear it said
the modern farmer spends too much
money for machinery. We hardly
think he does, though there are, of
course, exceptional cases. The farmer
of today simply spends for machinery
what the farmer of yesterday spent
for hired help—and machinery proves
the cheaper way. As a rule, too, ma
chinery is more satisfactory.
Reducing Feed Cost.
Attention to feeding with respect to
the feed itself and to the method will
reduce the cost of horse power re
quired to do the farm work.
Sometimes a smart man gets paid
for not doing things he might.

The Little Rifles—Big in Quality
YOU are going to buy a .22 calibre rifle, single shot
or repeater —you'll find that many well known crack
shots started with a Remington .22. Their advice now
would be “By all means, get a Remington" because they
know that there is a tendency in some quarters to look
upon these models as only “a small boy's rifle" and to
cheapen them so that they can be sold at a price.
You have just as much right to expect full shooting value in your
122 calibre arm as in your $75 big game rifle.
You want the Remington single shot at from $3 to $6, .22, .25-10
Os .32 calibre, made by the same people who make the famous
Remington Autoloading Rifles.
Or. if you prefer the repeating rifle, the Remington elide action .22 repeater
with its easy take-down and special safety feat-area, shooting .22 short. .22
long or .22 long rifle cartridges, at $lO and up. is your arm. Sold by lire
