Could Shout for Joy.

"I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart," wrote C. B. Rader of Lewisburg. W. Va., “for the wonderful double benefit I got from Electric Betters, in curing me of both a severe case, of stomachi trouble and of rheumatism, from ] which I had been an almost helpless sufferer for ten years. It suited my 1 case as though made just for me.” For dyispapsia. indigestion, jaundice, l and to rid the system of kidney i poisons that cause rheumatism, Electric Bitters have no equal. Try them. Every bottle is guaranteed to satisfy. Only 50 cents at A. F. Long’s.]

FT. WAYNE HOST TO EDITORS.

Democratic Siritx*s of Indiana Have Delightful Time, at Annual Meeting. The Democratic newspaper fraternity of Indiana was well represented at the annual convention of the Indiana Democratic Editorial association held at Ft. Wayne Thursday, Friday and Saturday of. last week. Members from the southern part of the -rate met at' Indianapolis, leaving that city on special interurban cars at noon on Thursday and arrived in Ft. Wayne about 6 p. m. At 7:30 a meeting was held at Elks hall, which was followed by a musical entertainment by the BiahleTio. The address of welcome was by A, J. Mopyhan of the Ft. Wayne Journal-Gazette. which followed the annual Address of I’resid; nt Frank Gwin o: New Albany. The president -of the Ft. Wayne Commercial club also welcomed, the visitors to the city. Thursday morning automobiles took the editors and their wives to various points of interest about tiie city, i: -luding the Wayne knitting work-. where they were shown through the entire plant, which starting in a humble way 20 years ago. now employs 2,500 people. This plant manufacturers hose of 'all kinds, and on leaving the. guests were each presented with a pair of silk lisle hose with the compliments of the concern. The plant 'of this company is ideal as to j working conditions, cleanly, well ! ventilated and has a club house I SOx 135 feet, two stories and basement. with dining hall for 700 , people where meals are served at actual cost of about 35 cents per |dr y bowling alleys, pool and billiard i tables, reading and music rooms, . modern kitchen, bath and toilet .equipment; and sleeping rooms for ; out of .town girl employes accom- ' modating 100 girls. It is now J one of the largest hosiery plants in I I the world. ■

Returning to the city at noon the guests were shown through elegant million dollar court house, anta it is certainly a splendid building and evidently there tias no graft in it.-t construction. for if ever a people got their money’s, worth they did in this building, which must be seen to be appreciated. Ar one o’clock cars were taken at the court house' and the guests went to Robinson Park, a pleasure resort seven miles' out along the St. Joseph, fiver, where a splendid luncheon was served and the afternoon .put in at various amusemehts. .■ ' ■ Returning to the city again at five o’clock an elegant banquet was spread in the beautiful dining room o. the St. Anthony hotel, after which the guests repaired to the Princess Rink where Hons. Cyrus Cline. Samuel M. Ralston and Gov. Marshall addressed the editors and the assembled host of citizens. Saturday morning cars were taken at 10 a. m., for luncheon at, the Country Club, after which’ the guests -returned to and departed for their various honfes, all voting that the meeting had

been one of the most pleasing in the history of the association. Ft. VC ayne is a splendid hustling city and her people are most hospitable. It is up-to-date in everyway and is making great strides toward civic beauty. Her population now is upwards of 70,000, only 10.000, less than Evansville, now the second city in size in Indiana, but from the indications of growth seen on all sides the city on the Ohio will have to look well to her laurels or Fort Wayne will soon be the second city of the state. Senator Stephen B. Fleming was in charge of the arrangements, and he certainly provided splendid entertainment for the visitors.

City Council Meeting.

The city council met in regular session- Monday night with all members present. ‘ An ordinance appropriating for mo.ver and lawn mower was introduced, read. rules suspended and Petition of T.

Why I Love Them So.

I'm stuck on Ted, you bet. you bet; I hope he'll punch 'em harder yet, And smash 'em all along the line— Ah. Teddy's doing work that's' fine. 1 like Bill Taft, indeed I do; He's pretty good at pounding, too. He's got a good and level head 1 like the way he goes for Ted. And LaFollette -is not so slow. Both Bill and Ted, he tries to show. Are not one bit fit for the place— That both of them should quit the race. 1 raise my has to Ted. I do; I take it off to Wil iam, too. To LaFollette I tip the same— r Qh. don't they play a corking game? What’s that you say? “How c.\i it be That 1 admire all of the three?" The answer’s easy, sir to that— Because I am a democrat. • —Carroll County Citizen.

PURE BRED FOWLS FAVORED

They Will Realize Good Profits If Properly Cared For—lnterestinfl Work for Farmer. If. In writing on the old. old subject of the advantages of raising pure-bred fowls I can Influence even one fanner of the southern or eastern territory to discard the old flocks and in its place raise stock which will be a credit to himself and the section of the country in which he lives, I will indeed feel that I have not wasted time and space, says a writer in the Atlantic Poultry Journal. There is no doubt as to the stability of the poultry industry. The tendency In all of the large cities is toward suburban homes and the pursuit of rustic labors as a pastime. Poultry forms one of the most pleasant diversions for these small farmers, and the initial stock must constantly be supplied. Any man who produces birds good enough to take premiums at the fall and winter shows and then advertises eggs and stock for sale, will meet with little difficulty in disposing of them. Any business, by careful attention and intelligent management can be made successful and the poultry industry is no exception. , With a little careful reading any farmer can learn how to improve his stock and profits, and he will soon find that poultry raising is a very interesting part of the farm work, as well as one which amply repays for the amount of labor and money expended? : , The slow steady growth of a flock of’poultry is more to be desired than a large investment in fancy stock without previous experience. Study just what line of the poultry business is best suited to your local environment and then get to work and see what can be done with the proposi-

White Plymouth Rock.

tion. A mongrel hen might, in an occasional instance, lay as many eggs as one that is pure-bred; but the flock will not live up to the standard set by the pure-bred fowls.

Pure Breeds.

We keep all the way from 150 to 250 chickens, divided into six flocks. We prefer a pure breed to a cross or mongrels, says a writer in an exchange. There is more money in them, and a flock uniform in color adds very much to the appearance of a farm. Our breeds are Buff Plymouth Rocks and White Leghorns.

A Convenient Roost.

A good roost is a 2x4 scantling, placed broadside over two 12-inch boards. These two boards form a platform which catch the droppings, and these are worth from 75 cents to a dollar a barrel. Do not place the roosts too high, for the hens will jump, and in so doing will have leg weakness or perhaps bumblefoot.

POULTRYNOTES

Young chicks may be kept dry and warm. The early broilers always command the best market. Little chicks will not thrive if penned in a small enclosure. A ben needs nearly seven times more fresh air in proportion to her size than does the horse. Selecting the hens according to their laying qualities is to some poultrymen a hard proposition. Any one keeping poultry must, of course, have houses to protect them, from cold or stormy weather. Fowls intended for market should be cooped for a week or two and fed all the rich food they will eat. i. Fine gravel is not the proper grit for poultry. They want a sharp material with which to grind their food. The incubator should be located in a room where the temperature does not vary much during the day or night Eggs will become fertile in from four to six days after mating. The effect of mating will continue several months. < 1 It is necessary to feed the breeding ducks liberally, yet at the same time feed so as to keep them active and healthy. Poultry houses which have cracks In their sides or leaky roofs should be covered with some kind of prepared roofing on both roof and sides. Chicks sheltered from the weather and given plenty of good water will find much of their feed, and prove the ‘most profitable crop on the farm. Remember that the early broods must at all times have a dry place and room to exercise when the weather will not permit them to go outdoors.

ZMKSreiiEN SEgABINET iOU may keep your feet from » slipping And your hands from evil deeds, Ryt to guard your tongue from tripping. What unceasing care it needs.” LEFT-OVER DISHES. It takes thought and planning to use the bits of left-over meats acceptably. One may often buy in the market small amounts of meat, too small for any but individual portions, which may be used with other foods to provide a good meal. A little chopped ham added to an omelet makes a pleasant change and the dish has more food value, an important item, when preparing the meal, to arrange for. Cold boiled ham chopped and mixed ■with sour pickles, also chopped, is a fine filling for sandwiches. Cooked ham mixed with mashed potato, and after seasoning make into flat cakes. Brown in a little fat. Minced Liver.—To each cup of cold, minced liver add one tablespoonful of chopped onion browned. In butter, and season with salt and a little paprika. Turn into an agate frying pan' with a little water. Sprinkle lightly with flour and add a quarter of a cup of vinegar. Simmer until well heated. Saqsage and Rice Cakes.—To one cup of cooked rice, warm or cold, add an unbeaten egg and two tablespoonfuls of cold fried sausage. Form into flat cakes. If the mixture is too soft add a little more rice. Brown in butter or hot fat, being careful to have the fat very hot before adding the cakes. This amount will make half a dozen medium sized! cakes, :-x, Yankee Toast.—Poach, a few eggs the Same number of pieces of toast in bacon fat. Crush a little of the bacon and sprinkle over each slice of toast and serve with an egg on top. Shred a leaf of lettuce very fine and garnish the top of each egg. The meat from a shank of boiled ham may be chopped and mixed with boiled salad dressing. Pack in a* jar and have a sandwich filling that will keep indefinitely. .
