Buff Orpingtons Received With En
thusiasm on Farms.
By A. G. GILBERT.
Long eiperiencebas shown that no
arletles of fowls are better suited
to the requirements of farmers and
ethers than Barred and White Plym
outh Rocks, White Wyandottes and
Buff Orpingtons. Both Barred Plym-

onth Socks and White Wvandottes are
from them may be had at reasonable
Cost No variety seems to have a
(reater hold on the farming commu
nity than the Barred Plymouth Rock.
The Orpingtons are comparatively new
Comers, but have rapidly made their
way to a first place In the utility class.
Particularly may this be said of the
buff variety.
The English group of fowls, among
Which are the Orpingtons, may be said
to embrace many different kinds, and
for the most part they have been val
ued for their egg laying 'and table
qualities. As with the American breeds,
the aim seems to have been a combi
nation of egg laying and market types
With small frame and superior quality
of flesh. In this respect the English
and French breeds may be said to be
unexcelled. Both nations are also
skilled In crossing varieties, with the
aim of producing flesh with small
frames and a fine quality of meat of
white color.
Buff Orpingtons are one of many va
rieties and probably the most popular
of the Orpington family. They are rap
Idly replacing many wornout strains
and mongrels on our farms and have
taken a front place In the utility poul
try ranks as winter layers and market
fowls. There is great demand for eggs
and fowls of this breed. They have
light colored legs and white flesh.
Chickens are hardy and grow rapidly.'
Eggs are of medium or larger size, ac
cording to strain.
White Orpingtons are a most promis
ing variety and are likely to become
popular on account of their merits as
layers and table fowls. They are not

yet well known, but will soon make
many friends. Their characteristics are
about the same as those of the buff
variety, with the exception of the col
or of the plumage, which Is pure white.
Jubilee, Spangled and ' Rose Comb
Buff and White Orpingtons are varie
ties of the same family, which are yet
In few hands. All claim more or less
merit The buff and white varieties
are likely to be first In favor of fan
ciers and breeders for some time to
come, as they are best known and have
certainly made a favorable Impression.
Species of Alfiiaria.
There are about eight species of al
fllarla growing in the United States,
three being native to the Pacific coast
region. The' most valuable and the
one that has made such progress -on
the ranges Is the red stemmed alfilaria
(Erodium clcutarlum). This species Is
a hairy, slightly viscid, erect or as
cending herbaceous winter annual from
six to eight Ruches high. Its flowers
are lilac or purple, and the plant pos
sesses generally a pronounced musky
odor. During the winter it forms a
compact many leaved rosette from ten
to twelve inches in diameter, from
Which the stems are thrown up during
the spring months.
For San Jose Scale.
Lime sulphur washes for San Jose
scale are suitable only for the treat
ment of trees which are In a dormant
state, being much too strong for appli
cation to trees In foliage. Experiments
indicate that the best results follow
applications In spring just befotfc the
growth of the tree begins.
KlliG DRAG CLUBS,
How to Organize Them and Start
Neighbors Dragging.
VALUE OF CONCERTED ACTION
Importance of Using Drags at the
Right -Time Proved by Statement of
a Township Supervisor Features of
Neighborhood Organization. '
fCopyright. 1908, by D. Ward King:!
After the. public spirited, leaders In
the movement for better roads have
convinced the community the King sys
tem Is all it is claimed to be there will
arise the question of how to get every
mile of road dragged, for the less progressive-
men will allow stretches of
rough road between the smooth pieces.
Now, In times past I used to shy at
organization. I was more afraid of
the word than the average farmer's
family horse Is of an automobile. The
worst fool over an auto on my farm
today Is the twenty-year-old standby
who has helped to raise the children;
not that I was foolish about it but be
cause I knew the ease with which good
people will elect a president and a sec
retary, adopt a constitution and quit
I am 8 till opposed to organizing first
Before such an attempt is even sug
gested a lively demand for it should be
created. When the people are convinc
ed by object lessons, then the time Is
ripe for organization.
A paper record and the formal elec
tion of officers is not an absolute ne
cessity, for when the community has
reached the proper frame of mind the
desired end may be reached by a sort
of common consent just as villages
gradually get rid of the front fences
and take better care of the lawns with
out the passage of a special ordinance.
In thousands of instances long stretch
estwenty miles in some cases are
kept In order by an unspoken under
standing. But formal organization will
do no harm and often will succeed
where the spontaneous kind has failed
to develop.
I am acquainted with four styles of
neighborhood organization, three of
them developed by unselfish Individu
als having in view the good of the
community solely. . The differences In
the plans are due partially to local en
vironments and partially to the busi
ness occupations of the persons who
formulated them.
The organization of the residents
along suburban roads was first ac
complished by. Mr. Clarence D. Skin
ner of Topeka, Kan. Mr. Skinner in
terested the people along his own
street and used the drag to make a
boulevard which became .the talk of
the city. His success was so great
that he was made assistant secretary
of the Kansas Good Roads association.
In which capacity he aided Secretary
I. D. Graham to spread the club idea
throughout the state, the newspapers
of Topeka. joining heartily in the
project
Postmaster Filson of- Glameron, Mo.,
was the author of a scheme for divid
ing each rural route in two parts with
a captain for each part He called a
mass meeting of all the patrons of all
the rural routes and after explaining
to them he divided the audience into
groups by. routes and had captains
chosen. It was the business of one
captain to manage the outgoing half
of the route which passed his house,
and It was the business of the other
captain to attend to the Incoming end.
About two years ago Thomas W.
Larkin, secretary of the Dennison
(Tex.) Commercial club, made and
tested a King drag. He was converted.
The roads were very, very bad about
Dennison. One of them, known as
Carpenters Bluffs road seemed much
the worst' The Commercial club do
nated a sum of money to put this road
in order, but stipulated that the farm
ers must pledge a like amount . in
money or labor, and also must promise
to drag the road carefully after it was
repaired. Mr. Larkin called meetings
at a schoolhouse or two out near the
end of the road, presented the proposi
tion and organized the farmers. To
day the Bluffs road Is known by repu
tation' throughout Texas, and Its ex
cellence is the standard by which
other good roads are measured.
The fourth form of organization can
be used only in localities where the
road officers join the movement and
take the management in charge. I can
outline the workings of this plan most
quickly and clearly by repeating a
statement made by a township super
visor from Clayton county at the Iowa
state road convention, Des Moines, In
January, 1905. The value of the King
drag and the Importance of concerted
action in its use were under discussion,
and the supervisor said that on a cer
tain afternoon, naming a day several
weeks past the roads had thawed and
were a little sloppy. The wind got
into the north and it was evident a
freeze was coming. "So," said he, "I
stepped to the phone and ordered out
every drag In the township. The
weather turned very cold that night;
the ground froze hard and remains
frozen till now. The undragged roads
were so sharp and rough the next
morning they were well nigh impassa
ble, but the dragged roads were as
smooth as a floor and as hard as cast
Iron and have been so every since."
It seems to me this statement con
tains in a nutshell proof of the value
of the drag even in winter, evidence
of the importance of using the drag at
the right moment and also points to
the necessity for some form of organ
ization. Pennsylvania State Highways.
The state highway department of
Pennsylvania expects to construct this
year 268 miles of good roads.

PLAN TO FIGHT DISEASE.
Druggists Will Battle Stomach
Troubles in Corvallis.
The increase of stomach troubles ia
Corvallis has led Graham & Wells to take
effective measures to combat the disease.
. They bave the local agency for Mi-o-na
sternach tablets, and in order to induce
people Buffering with weak stomach or
indigestion to nsetbe remedy, offer to
supply it with the distinct understanding
that money will be refunded in every case
where It doss not cnre.
Mi-o-na is not a mere digestive, bnt an
absolute strengtaener and build er-up of
tbe wiiole digestive tract. If you suffer
with headaches, giddiness, palpitation,
bad taste in the mouth, nervousness,
coated tongue, d iatresB aftar eating, use
Mi-o-na and see how quickly these symp
toons of a weak stomach will disappear. '
1 The remedy strengthens the muscular
walls of tbe stomach and increases tbe
flow of gastric juices so that nourishment
is extracted from the food and the refuse
is expelled without the aid of purgative
or laxative medicines, .
Remember that Graham fc Wells give
a gurrantee to refund the money unless
it cures. They take all the risk, sad
there is no danger ot yonr losing any
thing except indigestion when you buy a
50-cent box of Mi-o-na.
