The History of John J. Doherty's Case “Three years ago I took a severe cold, putting me directly to bed. After a month’s treatment for pleurisy my physician was baffled i»y the action of my fever or temperature, which was high one day and low the noft, and while he tried different prescriptions, I didn’t improve any, but slowly became weaker. ‘The doctor finally decided to tap me by running a needle-like instrument into the left side of my back and between the ribs, to ascertain if pus was forming in my left lung. The tapping resulted in the withdrawal of a small quantity of pus and the doctor said it was forming so fast that I must have an operation to extract and draw out the pus. At the time my heart pained me terribly because it was three inches out of place, due to the pressure of the fast-accumulat-ing pusi “I was ordered to the hospital for an immediate operation or I would be a dead man in 36 hours. The next morning the surgeon removed one inch of two ribs in the back. Iforming a square cavity to remove the pus, which squirted eight feet from the, table. About two quarts was removed. A rubber tube was then inserted in the cavity to,the lung for a drain, which took about three weeks to perfectly drain and heal the cajvity. “The doctors told me that I had to take all precautions possible, as I was subject to easily capturing tubercular germs, due to the weakness of my lungs. For one whole year I nsed several kinds of tonic and lung medicines and didn’t improve much from weakness. “Then I began the use of Milks Emulsion and after a month's trial I found myself with increasing appetite and gaining strength, and today I have regained my natural weight and strength and feel completely myself. And the joy of it is, after using all of the Milks Emulsion that I did it didn’t form a habit. I haven’t used any for a month now and I feel at my best. I am 48 years of age and weigh 180 pounds. “1 want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for wonderful preparation.” Yours truly, JOHN J. DOHERTY, Odanah. Wis.

MM GEESE AND DUCKS ARE PREFERRED Fowls Require Little Feed and Not Much Care. We almost swear by our geese and we can make each old goose bring in SIOO a season. It’s not easy to make sows return a greater profit when present feed <Mssts are computed. Our old pairs, and we never attempt to raise from young geese, are good for four dozen eggs in a season and will raise 30 goslings each to maturity, writes J. I, Phillips. Whitman county. Washington, in Capper’s Farmer. Each goose lays three times and we let her sit on her last laying of eggs. There is little cost to raising geese on a general farm and that is the place for profits on almost any sort of live stock. Our goslings grow up on grass until ■ after harvest. Then they fatten themselves on waste grain in the wheat and oats fields and on corn ami beans scattered where the hogs harvest those crops. They get practically nothing that would not otherwise go to waste. We sell the best goslings as breeders for $5 each and the common ones at market price for Thanksgiving and Christmas. They weigh 15 to 20 pounds each. By dressing them we get better than $1 each out of the feathers to pay for the work. Our ducks art* almost as profitable as the geese and if it were not for the fact that the eggs do not hatch in an ordinary incubator. I doubt if we would have a hen on the place. They lay splendidly and we hatch from April until August. The young are full feathered at eight weeks for the broiler chicken market and we have no trouble selling them. We like them mighty well fried, too, and use a lot of them at home. The old ducks weigh 6 to 9 pounds ahd the young ones at eight weeks old as high as 4 pounds. We never could get that weight with chickens. I don’t think the average family appreciates the ease with which the water fowls are raised. Ducklings or goslings increase in weight about three times as rapidly as chickens. It makes the need of brooding much shorter and gets some size on them so they will be out of danger from rats or from being tramped on long before chickens have reached that stage.

Marketing Eggs Direct Is Profitable Plan Many poultrymen who are wanting a better market for their poultry products would find better profits in a direct to the consumer trade, according to \V. A. Sumner. University of Wisconsin. who points out that a classified ad in city papers often will bring more customers than a farmer can supply. He points out the necessity of the farmer poultry producer being in. position to take care of orders in prompt and efficient mapner-and to be able to supply a good reliable product, which in the case of eggs would mean, fresh, large-sized and clean eggs. This direct to the consumer business depends upon repeat orders and poultrymen must keep up the quality of their shipments so that customers will not look elsewhere for eggs or poultry. A satisfied customer is the best advertisement that the producer can have. It pays to have neat cartons and crates for marketing eggs and sometimes a producer can develop a trademark name that will help bring more orders and customers. Health Insurance A low chick mortality of 9.3 per cent was reported by Pennsylvania poultrymen who raised their chicks in complete confinement last year. These reports were obtained for a total of 12.309 chicks brooded under the “closed door” plan outlined by the poultry extension department of the Pennsylvania State college. A low chick mortality and freedom from intestinal parasites are two advantages of the plan outlined by the specialists. Chinese Rank Third The breed which probably ranks third in number in the United States as a whole is the Chinese. There are two varieties of this breed: White Chinese and Brown Chinese. This breed is rather small, the ganders weighing ten to twelve pounds. Their popularity is largely due to the fact that they are the most prolific breed of geese. Under good management they may be expected to produce 60 to 100 eggs in a laying season. Like other geese, their main feed IS grass. Dub Male Fowls Some breeders dub their male birds like game cocks to avoid freezing of the comb and wattles. The practice appears cruel but probably produces much less suffering than a badly frozen comb which takes weeks to heal. Usually it is only possible to dub birds for the home flock as it injures their appearance and other breeders will not like to buy them. With warmer poultry houses, many male birds are going through the winter without a frosted point. Improve Quality Much improvement in the qualities of a flock may be made by providing a breeding pen that includes the , choice birds of a flock. Ten to fifteen of the best females of the flock may be isolated with a good male. From this mating, a considerable number of offspring may be raised. The offspring should be marked so as to distinguish them from the rest of the flock. Sufficient superior males to head the flock next year should be produced each 5 —

Good Luck Laid to Loss of Leg

Young Lecturer Feels Compensated by Friendships All Over World. Los Angeles.—To be perfectly whole and to maintain an average percentage of enthusiasm for living is an achievement for most persons. But when a man twenty-three years of age can regard the loss of a leg as a reason for more than ordinary good fortune, and in spite of it can win the description of “the supreme adventurer” from no less a personage than Mussolini, it becomes more than an achievement. There arrived in this city a few days ago such a young man whose eager enthusiasm and whole-souled •eve of life In general transcend a mere physical handicap and make him look upon his lot as a wonderful experience in which he has “gotten all the breaks.” Works Way Through College. Ellery Walter, author, lecturer and wanderer, is the guest of Mr. and .Mrs. Stanley Brooks. No. 1109 Columbia street. Pasadena, incidental to a tour which is taking him to most of the principal cities of the United States. Left an orphan at fourteen, Walter found it necessary to work his way through high school and college. At high school in Seattle he was cook for a family,of four and during the summers his experiences covered everything from work in a Northwest logging camp to laboring in the Tampico oil fields, where he narrowly escaped death at the hands of a gang of bandits. In 1924 he entered the University of Washington where he was president of the 1928 class, a crew and track man and a student of Phi Beta Kappa ability. His college career was cut Short by septic poisoning which developed from a heel blister, and in about two years he started to Honolulu on a voyage of recuperation which ended in a trip of a year and a half around the world, covering about 77.000 miles, with his foot amputated before leaving Honolulu and 19 operations performed on the afflicted leg during the course of his wandering. Unusual Experiences. All this occurred white ‘he worked his way. He tutored English children, did publicity for chambers of commerce. wrote articles for the newspapers and even acted as courier for a party of ten American girls traveling in Europe. Almost every step of his way has been distinguished by unusual experiences and contacts with famous

FINDER WILL RAISE “DREAM ISLE,” SUNK IN PACIFIC

American Contractor Buys Ship From MacMillan, the Explorer, for the Expedition. Cleveland.—A “dream island" sunk m the Pacific ocean off the California oast is the destination of a cruise Headed by B. M. Bramley, paving con 1 ractor, who has bought the steam vacht Peary from Donald B. MacMillan. explorer, for the expedition. The island lies under 20 feet of water. Bramley says ft was first revealed to him In a dream while he was m Cleveland. So vivid was his dream and so inviting was the prospect of exploration and discovery in seas tailed tor centuries by ships of every nation that Bramley set out in search »f bis island while in California.

people and he declares that he’s had a marvelous time. “Please don’t make a fuss about my leg and the operations.” he said. “It doesn’t depress me in the least and when you come to think of it. I’ve really had name good luck than bad. In some ways 1 think I’ve had a better time than if I’d had my two feet. People all over the vyorld have been fine to me and 1 have made some won derful friends.” Walter has recently published a book of his experiences. “The World on One Leg.” in which he recounts his adventures from the time he was fourteen \mtil his most recent trip to Europe when he had private audiences with Von Hindenburg, the pope and Mussolini and visited in the home of Lloyd George. Walter makes his headquarters in New York, although home, he says, is wherever he happens to hang his hat. Spend Millions on Death Valley Shack Tonopah, Nev.—Fcr the first time. Death Valley Scott’s famous ranch in Grapevine canyon is hooked up with the outside world by telephone. “It’s mighty convenient,” says Scotty. “Not long ago my favor.te mule was sick and if the phone had been working 1 Would have had a specialist out from the coast. 1 nearly lost the best anima) in my string.” When the Bullfrog railroad recently abandoned its line between Goldfield and Beatty. Albert Johnson. Chicago multi-millionaire who is building a million-dollar “shack” on the ranch and installing a $35,000 pipe organ to entertain Scotty and his mules, purchased the wire -and poles and established a phone service from rhe ranch to Goldfield, where it connects with long distance. Johnson divides his time between Chicago and the ranch and he says. “I need it when 1 am away to confer with Scotty on important matters.” Johnson has already spent a million dollars on the “shack” and other improvements, including miniature lakes.

Now he means to build a breakwater about the place, pump sand from the bottom of the sea to make new land and erect a fishing and outing paradise. “It may be fantastic," Bramley said, but Investigation of stone prices for the wall about his island demonstrate his earnestness to go through with the plan anyhow. The Peary is a fitting ship for the cruise. Its history is as colorful as some aspects of Bramley’s dream. It was built first by the French government as a mine sweeper, but lay in dry dock antil a private purchaser fitted itJuxuriousiy as a yacbL Then Commander MacMillan bought it for

Y.—Cornell university has developed methods to speed up chemical analyses, ordinarily among the slowest of occupations. Many laborious analyses have been eliminated by using a microscope to study reactions which have been invisible hitherto. The chemist of a salt concern, having difficulty in removing foreign particles from its product, employed analytical methods for two days without getting a' satisfactory answer. Then he went to Prof. E. M. I’hanmt of the department of chemistry at Cornell, who has developed the course in microscope study. Two minutes with a microscope showed that nearly 40 per cent of the white substance was not salt but gypsum.
