HOW TO CURE CORNS AND BUNIONS.
First, soak the corn or bunion in
luke warm water to soften it; then
pare it down as closely as possible
without drawing blood and apply
Chamberlain's Pain Balm twice daily,
rubbing vigorously for five minutes at
each application. A corn plaster
should be worn a few days to protect
it from the shoe. As a general lini
ment for sprains, bruises, lameness
and rheumatism, Pain Balm is un
equaled. For sale by Geo. A. Harding.

SOME SEASONABLE ADVICE.
It may be a piece of superfluous
advice to urge people at this season
of the year to lay in a supply of Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy. It is al
most sure to be needed before win
ter is over, and much more prompt
and satisfactory results are obtained
when taken as soon as a cold is con
tracted and before it has become set
tled in the system, which can only
be done by keeping the remedy at
hand. This remedy is so widely known
and so altogether good that no one
should hesitate about buying it in
preference to any other. It is for sale
by Geo. A. Harding.

Foley & Co., Chicago, originated

ing her sick mother who died during

county, is visiting friends, here now.
A JUDICIOUS INQUIRY.
A well known traveling man who
visits the drug trade says he has often
heard druggists inquire of customers
who asked for a cough medicine,
whether it was wanted for a child or
for an adult, and if for a child they
almost invariably recommend Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy. The reason
for this is that they know there is
no danger from it and that it always
cures. There is not the least danger
in giving it, and for coughs, colds and
croup it is unsurpassed. For sale by
Geo. A. Harding.

Are these lines from J. H. Simmons
of Casey, la. Think what might have
resulted from his terrible cough if he
had not taken the medicine about
which he writes: "I had a fearful
cough, that disturbed my night's rest.
I tried everything, but nothing would
relieve it, until I took Dr. King's New
Discovery for Consumption, Coughs
and Colds, which Completely cured
men." Instantly relieves and perma

MONEY IN SMALL POULTRY FARM
The question is often asked, does
poultry pay Can a man or a family
make a living on a small farm devoted
to poultry? I would answer in the af
firmative most assuredly and yet
would not advise one to confine hii
whole attention to poultry alone. Small
fruits and bees should be combined
with the poultry and a splendid living
made.
In poultry I would advise both the
market and fancy breeds for in this
way a person can dispose ot the culls
to a good advantage on the market
as well as devote a part of the trade
to fancy fowls. There is a good deal
to learn about this caring for fowls
and for this reason a person should
not go in too steep at the start. Sit
uated near a good town with ten acres
of ground a person could have half of
this in small fruits such as strawber
ries, respberries and blackberries.
These three ripen in such a time that
one does not conflct with the other
and all can be cared for in their re
spective seasons. On the rest of the
ground there could he kept a cow and
a few hogs, enough for home, con
sumption as well as the yards for the
fowls. On such a plant I would ad
vise the rearing of chickens alone.
Ducks might be reared in a part of

the inclosure by themselves, but I
would confine the business to poultry
alone.
On such a plant there could be kept
from three to five hundred hens and
their eggs together with the young
stock raised both for the fancy and
market would furnish a neat income,
This added to the income from the
fruits would make a handsome living,
Added to this could be the income from
judging fowls if one was gifted in that
direction. All these things combined
would assist the business. The fowls
and young chicks could be turned in
to the berry patches to a great ad
vantage at different times of the year
and especially during the summer and
fall and in fact at any time when the
ripe fruit was not on the vines. From
the strawberry beds and other shrub
bery could ie sold plants and all com
bined there could be a good living off
the ten' acre farm. As a person pros
pered there could be additions to the
farm and the business. On such a
plant a person could handle poultry
supplies and all kinds of foods, incu
bators, brooders, louse killers and ev
erything that is used in the business
among his neighbors and friends. Add
to this a fresh egg trade and supply
hotels and commission houses with
strictly fresh eggs and work up a
trade in this department.
There are numerous ways in which
money can be made even on a small
place. The rule with farmers is to
keep "a few" and what they really
bring in is never known as they are
an adjunct to the other interests. Sys
tem in everything is what makes the
business pay. Some men have become
rich manufacturing louse killers and
others have made a success on wind,
for that seems to be about all they
have to deal in. Of the latter class
we have no word of commendation,
but for the useful citizen the world
over, who gives full value for money
received, we have all the time and
praise possible.
Suppose now that "on such a farm as
we have described, we place three
hundred hens. From each of these
hens, if from a fair laying strain, there
should be gathered one hundred and
fifty eggs. This would make a total
of 45,000 eggs. Taking out 3000 for
hatching purposes and table use it
would leave 42,000 to be turned onto
the market and at as low a price as
15 cents a dozen these would bring
an income of $525 besides having the
surplus stock to sell. Of these at least
200 could be sold and of the larger
; breeds should average seven pounds
apiece (this is low) and at 10 cents
1 per pound would bring $140. The
, young stock sold on the market and
for the fancy trade would bring in at
I least $500 more and as much more as
j the energy and good sense of the op
erator would add. The income from
the fruits should be at least $200 per
acre and allowing an acre for each
kind of fruit mentioned above there
would be $C00 to add to the poultry
business making a total of $1765 for
the year and we are working on a
! low estimate all through.
j The work could be done by a fam
ily of ordinary strength and half a
hundred colonies of bees, which have
I not been figured in, would pay the
cow and swine would pay for them
selves. The expense of keeping a
horse and the family keep must be de
ducted and when it is, where is there
a farmer on 160 acres of good land
making more money than could be
made on such a farm? Of course ev
ery body is not going into such busi
ness, but there is plenty of room for
a great many more than there are at
present. If a man was a reputable
judge he could add from $500 to $1000
more each year and not neglect his
own business either. Private scor
ing has become a business of itself
and you can scarcely sell a good bord
any more without a score card or at
least it expedites the sale of bords
to have a score card jarith each. In fact
it is much better than the old way for
both buyer and seller.
This is the poultry business on pa
per, the real thing will bring many
problems that we have not told you,
but not more than will be found in any
other business. There is cholera
among hogs, blackleg and kindred dis
eases among cattle as well as the dis
eases of sheep or any other stock and
these must be taken into considera
tion as well in the poultry business. r
