Varieties of Fowls.

wyiTK COCHI ss. " In our opinion, the most beautiful'of all the Cochins—their siie, weight, shape an<l good qualities do not differ much from the Buffs, but in color they are a pure white: not creamy or yellowish, but a perfect snow white. Owing to this they ire 'more easily soiled than the Buff Partridge or Black Cochins, but a more beautiful sight the eye never feaste I upon than a dock of these noble birds upon a green lawn. Their carriage is upright an l st-itoly. They are very docile, love to be petted, and if well cared for, will generally lay all winter. Tta'-y will average about 120 eggs per year; 7 of which will weigh one pound; 17 pounds of the best of food, or about twice their own weight. White Cochins not being so common as the others, command a higher priee.

Chicken Diseases.

. HAPKS. Supposed by some to be caused by a p.irasite which infests lie head of young chicks', but the theory generally -Accepted is tba* it is picked from the ground in a larral 1 state, hatch and pass through another change in the wind.pipe and again return to the ground. The roicrosc -pe reveals them as minute forked worms. They irri-> tate the chiih very much and frequently cau>e death. I hare never know it where the Douglas mixture was freely u<ed, or where a small lump of Camphor was kept in their drinking vessels. It chicks become infested, kill and burn, or remove from the farm. If valu »fcle enough to justify the trouble, plnck the web from both sides of a feather, leaving the tin, which web with a solution of 2u drop* carbolic acid and 1 ox of glycerine; run the feather down the wind pipe, not the throat. (Aeesnphngu«),*give it three or four limes and withdtaw qtticMy; repeat a few note* with a new feather. The acid paralysis and the glycerine sticks the worms to the feather so they can !>c drawn out. In fowls, no matter for what disease, always burh all matter, etc., to prevent exposure to the rest.

“There’s no Money in ’em. "

Perhaps some of our readers have seen a fossil—a person of very peculiar and ancient ideas, who never read a word about poultry, would not even allow them on the plac<*. on the plea that ‘‘there s no money in ’em'' Now this man’s natm- is Jones and he lives near L»ke Michigan. His good-matured wife loved fowls. She urged him for years to obtain some fine fowls to devour the kitchen scraps. “No, there’s no money in ’em.” Their son Harry, seventeen, and a dear lover of fine fowls, spent bis spare hoars in the yard of a neighboring poultry fancier. Harry enthusiAstii-wlly hoped some day to become a noted breeder. His father tried to keep down these hopes. Oooasionally Harry Would eloquently plead for a few fine fowls, telling how their neighbor male hundreds of dollars from a few.’ choice hens. Old Jones believed not a word of this, only answered “there’s no money in em.” * Harry’s birth day came, with it the great State Poultry Exhibition. Noted fanciers from every state in the Union and from Canada were there with their finest fowls, and reiuctantlv, Jones went also with his son. The old man was delighted. His •JE*» feasted on the lovely objects before him. He admired the beauty of this, the plumage of that and tha size of the other. He saw the beauties of Malaysia; colossal Cohins from the Orient; Games from the British Isles; Aristocratic Spanish fowls; Brahmas kicking the scales at 14 lbs. In fact more beautiful birds than the old man’s wildest visions could have dreamed es. He aaw scores of breeders who had grown gravin the business, who were gentlemen of . taste, means and polished manners He ’ nawthe friendly greeting, the warm grasp .of bands, thr kindly bow of recognition, 1 and the social chit-chat. He saw hundreds like himself, ignerant of .ibe origin, cbartc--1 teristiesand utility of the fowls on exhibition. Now that he had crossed the Rubicon a happier man was not within the hall. He saw eorae choice lots change hands at high figures. He now believed his son’s foriuer ftatemanta. Before Harry could devine his intentions he was the wner of a trio of fine fowls as'a birt bitty gift from oki man. Harry is successfully breeding his pet siock to good advantage'. The old man shares bis pleasures. He still thinks it was a big price tor a trio, yet, never •ince he crossed the threshold of that hall wheeein was held the poultry show, has hs been heard to say ‘‘there's no money in [Condensed from the Poultry

Who will be the first to respond? Don’t all speak stance. —A Mr. Keegan, of Bunker Hill, Miami county, was in town tho first of the week, prospecting for a location. He was quite favorably impressed with our town and we are informed he will soon open a boot and shoe store here. Come along, Mr. K.

Parties interested will save a great deal of vexation by bearing this fact in mind. —John Casey, the popular grocer at Hurley’s cross roads, (more familiarly known as New Chicago) besides a large stock of groceries and provisions keeps constantly on hand a supply of cord wood, posts and rails, which he will sell cheap for cash.

—The Association of teachers for this and Newton township was organized last Saturday at the Bowling Green school house. Officers elected: President, C. W. Clifton; Vice President, A. F.

We understand there <sa special invitation for all pupils and patrons of schools as well as for foreign teachers to attend. . —The elocutionary' entertainment given in Starr’s Hall, last evening by Prof. Ravliu’s class in elocution, was one of decided merit. The performance reflects great credit upon both the teacher of the art and the pupils, and the marked improvement made by each member of the class speaks well for the proficiency of their instructor. The Professor will give another term of lessons providing a sufficient number of persons desiting instructions in the art can be secured to organize a class. , < —Sims Sl Emmet's great Olio Company will give one of their grand entertainments in Starr’s Hall, to-night. This is pronounced one of the best minstrel troupes traveling, and is composed of first-class artists. The programme consists of comic and sentimental songs, mirth-provoking sketches, side-splitting farces, laughable witticisms, etc., etc. The price of admission is within the reach of all, and we advise the fan loving citizens of this necx of woods to take in this entertainment. It will undoubtedly be a rare treat. Our old friend, Mr. H. C. Bruce, dropped into our sanctum on Wednesday. Mr. Bruce, it will be remembered, removed from Jasper county to Kansas about two years ago, to try his hand in the Eden of the West. He expresses himself well pleased with that country, but his possessions being here, and no opportunity presenting itself to dispose of them, he concluded to return to old Jasper where he will probably conclude to remain for a while at least. We are glad to welcome him back to hie old home and friends, and hope he will spend the balance of his days here. —Every man in Jasper county ought to be a subscriber to the Standard. Jt is tbe best and cheapest paper published in the county. Only $1 a year, 60 cents for six months, 25 cents for three months. If you are already a subscriber, call and have a copy sent to some absent friend. It would be appreciated more than all the oopies you would or could write in the course of a year, for it would contain many items of news you would never think of, and very many that would be impossible to crowd into an ordinary letter. 8m the extra inducements that are offered to subscribers elsewhere in these columns.

THE JOURNAL ATLAS.

We are in receipt of a copy: of the Journal Atlas and Political Hand Book for 1880, issued by the proprietors of that very excellent paper, the Indianapolis Journal. It is indeed a valuable work, and has required much time and labor to compile the statistical information contained in it. It is just what its name indicatof-** political hand book—and a copy of it, should be in the hands of every voter in the state. The Atlas is offered as a premium to every subscriber to the Weekly Indiana State Journal, and is alone worth twice the price of the paper. In order that every family in Jasper county may secure this valuable work at a trifling coat, we have made arrangements with the publishing company by which we are enabled to famish the Weekly Indiana State Journal and the Standard one year, together with a copy of the Atlas and Hand Book, for ths remarkably low pries of $2.00. The two papere without the Atlas, one year for $1.66 These are certainly most liberal offers, and we feel confident that all who are not now subscribers to either the Journal or Standard will avail themselves of one or the other of the shove offers.
