Medium weight hens are best for

Just as cows that yield Mttle milk
should ho culled from the dairy, so
hens that lay few eggs should be given
place to larger producers.
An Indispensable aid to such work
is the keeping of a dally record of

can be picked out from the busy ones.

HE SINGS TO HEAT THE BAND.
Bert Morphy says farewell to Port
land today for a whole long year, says
the Telegram. He leaves for Phoenix.
Ariz., and not until next summer will
he return to Portland, which he de
clares Is the greatest spot In the world
outside of old Ireland Itself.
Of course you know Bert Morphy.
There Is but one Morphy not Mur
phy and he Is the "Man who sings
to beat the band." All Portland
knows him, and he is as well known
from one part of the country to the
other.
Morphy has what Is believed to be
the strongest voice In the world, yet
there have been times years ago when
it looked very much as though he
would have to forget that he was a
singer and get In and do hard work to
Keep body and soul together. He has
been In the business 16 years, but now
it Is a common thing for him to enter
Into $500 per week contracts, nnd
sometimes even more.
The greatest trouble he has had In
his business has been to make people
who have not heard him believe that
he can sing to a brass band accom
paniment. While he was at The Oaks
this summer the Portland newspapers
were full of articles of the great hits
lie made. But despite this people-
could not believe what they read until
uie nearu mm witn tneir own ears.
Boise City, Idaho, planned a big fair
and wanted a star attraction. The
committee heard of Morphy, but sent
several men to hear him sing with a
brass band before they would engage
him. and he went there with a fat
contract after the close of The Oaks.
Phoenix sent a man to Boise to hear
htm. and he obtained another big
contract. It Is exceedingly hard for
him to get an engagement at a place
where he has not appeared, and It Is
a common thing for committees to be'
dispatched long distances to hear j
him sing. J
"I can write bushels of letters and
send press notices galore to managers,
and if they have never heard me war
ble, or rather yell, they will not be
lieve that I can sing with a band,"
laughed Morphy yesterday at the Ho- i
tel Portland. "Once they hear me '
tear off a few. notes when a band la
playing Its loudest the contract Is as
good as signed.
"When I made a tour of England i
I came near starving to death before j
I could secure an engagement. I
made quite a name for myself In the
United States, and then thought 1
could Invade our European cousins. 1
landed in London with a trunkfull of i
press notices, and immediately sought '
out the music hall managers. I top
them what I could do and they laugh- I
ed at me. They thought I was either
a fool joker or a candidate for the
daffy-house. For weeks I hung around I
those managers, anil they began to !
look upon me as a village pest. The I
claim that I could sing and be plainly '
heard w ith the largest band In Eng-
land they regarded as absolutely ab-
urd.
"In sheer desperation I decided to j
hire a band of my own and show I
them. I engaged a band of about CO ,
pieces, hired a hall and then made a !
hustle for the managers. Many of .
them attended because they thought i
if they saw me make a fool of myself
that the village pest 'would bothor
them no more. Well, I made good.
and at the conclusion of the concert
had more offers than I could han
dle."
Morphy Is virtually ostracized from
the theaters or vaudeville houses.
Several times he tried to appear In
vaudeville, but got fired. In nearly
ail vaudeville programs from three- to
four of the acts are singers. Morphy
sang so loud that when he was fol
lowed by some average vocalist the
voice of the latter sounded like the
buzz of a mosquito. The other musi
cal acts dwindled Into Insignificance
and the complaint raised by the other
performers was of sufficient volume
to cause the managers to fire Morphy.
Once Morphy tried to break Into
grand opera. His powerful voice,
with Its wonderfully penetrating qual
ities, drove the other members of the
troupe Into distraction and they went
on strike. As a result Morphy was
turned out. So he took to singing
with brass bands, and now he makes
a small-sized fortune every year. He
makes more than many of the famous
grand opera singers and has no as
pirations now for grand opera or
vaudeville.
Morphy does not claim to be a De
Ilezko or a muHlcil prodigy, but he
says he Is a musical freak, and what
Is more that he Is proud or it. ills
voice Is natural and has never been
cultivated. Ho admits that It has
many rough spots In It which' could be
detected by critics were he to appenr
In opera, but that when singing with
a band they ennnot be detected. He
has a wonderful articulation, und no
matter how big the hand when singing
everv word ho utters can be heard
very distinctly. He hurls out the syl
lables like a shot from a cannon, and
It Is said no band has ever been able
to drown his voice.

Backache and " the blues" are direct
symptoms of an Inward trouble which
will sooner or later declare itself. It
may be caused by diseased kidneys or
some derangement of the organs.
Nature requires assistance and at once,
and Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound instantly asserts its curative
powers In all those peculiar ailments of
women. It has been the standby of
intelligent American women for twenty
years, and the best judges agree that
it is the most universally success
ful remedy for woman's ills known to
medicine.

Mrs. Holmes and Mrs. Cotrely.
Mrs. J. C. Holmes, of Larimore, North
Dakota, writes :
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:
" I have suffered everything with backache
and female trouble I let the trouble run on
until my system was in such a condition that

commeuced to use Lydia Pinkham's Vege

much suffering I would have saved I should
have taken it months sooner for a few
