KASPARILLA
This sterling household remedy is most
successfully prescribed for a "world of
troubles." For derangements of the di
gestive organs it is a natural corrective,
operating directly upon the liver and ali
mentary canal, gently but persistently
stimulating a healthful activity. Its
beneficial influence extends, however, to
every portion of the system, aiding in the
processes of digestion and assimilation of
food, promoting a wholesome, natural
appetite, correcting sour stomach, bad
breath, irregularities of the bowels, con
stipation and the long list of troubles
directly traceable to those unwholesome
conditions. Kasparilla dispels drowsi
ness, headache, backache and despond
ency due to inactivity of the liver,
kidneys and digestive tract. It is a
strengthening tonic of the highest value.
If it fails to satisfy we authorize all
dealers to refund the purchase price.

Only a few years ago the only article
tasting of maple was maple sugar.
There is now an article on the market
that is so like the real maple sugar
that even old Vermonters are unable
to tell the difference. In fact, on ac
count of its healthful qualities, being
a purely vegetable product, neitner
sticky nor sickly, it is preferred by
many people who formerly used only
the regulation maple sugar.
This new extract is called Maplcine.
It is a Seattle product and can be used
to advantage by the housewife in a
variety of ways. For instance, a syrup
like maple can be made by simply dis
solving granulated sugar in water and
adding a few drops of Mapleinc.
The Crescent Manufacturing Com
puny who make Maplcine have pub
lished a booklet called Maplcine Dain
ties. This will be sent free on request
to anyone who asks for it. It is full
of wholesome recipes.

Good Profit May Be Made by Feeding
to Poultry at High Prices.
By Jamoa Dryen, Poultryman. Oregon Agricul
tural College, CorvalliH.
The prices of poultry and eggs fol
low closely the trend of wheat prices
and of corn prices, the two staple poul
try foods in the United States. The
tendency is for poultry keepers to cur
tail the flock of poultry when prices
of food are high, and to increase the
flock when the prices of food are low.
When the grain prices rise more poul
try are sent to market, and later on
there is a scarcity of both poultry and
eggs.
The question for the poultryman and
the farmer to consider in this connec
tion is, at what prices of grain does
it pay the farmer to market the grain
rather than feed it to the poultry, for
the business of the farmer is to get the
most out of the soil, whether it be in;
raw or concentrated products. It is a
line point to determine just where the
profit in feeding poultry as well as
other livestock disappears in the up
ward tendency
in other words,
worms, etc., and there will usually be
skim-milk or buttwmilk. There need
therefore bo no cost for animal food,
resulting in a saving of S to 10 cents
per fowl. The clover or grass they eat
wi1 have little marketable value. Tho
destruction of grasshoppers in tho
clover and grain lields and of bugs iu
the orchards will, where these insects
are bad, onset a large part of the an
nual cost of food tor tho fowls iu
better crops.
Iu experiments with larger breeds
the cost of feeding was greater. Tho
cost of feeding I'lymouth Kocks aver
aged $1.15 per fowl and of Wyandottes
.f i.uO. This extra cost is largely offset
when the fovvis are marketed, tho
larger breeds bringing nioro than tho
small breeds.
in answer to an inquiry relative to
the way in which to tell the difference
between tho edible mushroom aud the
poisoitous variety, the station replied:
"There are so many different species
of mushrooms, and taey are so nearly
like the poisonous varieties, that it is
impossible for an inexperienced person
to detect the difference. Hotanists do
of tho price of grain;! not usually recognize any difference be

fco tssPo tfes0 BAD
FOR
BLOOD
When bad blood is caused from an infection of the,, circulation by the
virus of Contagious Blood Poison, it usually shows in the form of ulcerated
mouth and throat, copper-colored splotches on the body, swollen glands in
the groin, falling hair, sores and ulcers, etc. These general symptoms,
affecting; all parts of the' body, show how deeply poisoned the blood
becomes, and emphasizes the dangerous character of the trouble. If allowed
to remain in the system the disease will finally wreck the health and break
down the strongest constitution. No medicine can cure Contagious Blood
Poison which does not rid the circulation of every particle of the virus.
S. S. S. is the one real and certain cure; it goes down to th-e very bottom of
the trouble, and by removing every trace of the poison, and adding rich,
healthful qualities to the blood, forever cures this powerful disorder. S. S. S.
is the most reliable of all blood purifiers, and its concentrated ingredients of
healthful vegetable extracts and juices especially adapt it to curiug this
insidious trouble. Write for our home treatment book, which is a valuable
aid in the treatment of th different stages of the disease, and ask for auy
special medical advice you wish. No charge for either.

and persistent feeder of a profit. Tho
parting of the ways conies very soon
to tho majority of feeders. One man
may bo telling the exact truth when
he says that he can make no profit in
feeding seventy-five-cent wheat, and
another may be equally truthful when
he says he can make a profit in feed
ing one-dollar wlieat. The difference
in the two men is a difference in skill
in feeding. With good stock and good
care the skillful feeder will make a
profit in feeding high-priced grain, but
no ono can make a profit with poor
stock and poor care at any price for
tjrain.
Tho price of wheat is higher now
than it has been for probably ten or
fifteen years, and it is frequently said
that it is too high to feed to chickens,
Two or three things should be con
sidered in this connection. First, the
prices of poultry and eggs will rise if
many chickens are marketed, and the
farmer who" keeps bis chickens will
make as much profit as he did when
the price of wlieat was low. That is,
tho price of poultry products will ad
just itself to the prices of grain. Sec
ond, how much docs it really cost to
feed a hen for a year? Does any one
knowf
In experiments made by the writer,
covering several years, in which every
ounce of food was weighed, six pens
of Leghorn hens consumed during the
year 561 pounds wheat, 290 pounds
corn, 203 pounds oats, 112 pounds bran
and shorts and 235 pounds skim milk,
in addition to some animal food. The
cost of the total food per fowl for the
year varied in different pens from 61
cents to 78 cents, and averaged 06
cents. The wheat was charged at
cent a pound, corn at 14 cents, oats
at a cent, skim milk at a fifth of t
cent and bran and shorts at three
nuns of a cent. The animal food cost
from 5 to 6 cents per fowl. The wlieat
constituted nearly a half of the total
cost.
The hens laid an average of 144 eggs
per fowl, valued at $1.68 at local prices
for eggs. The prices were from 10
cents to 25 cents per dozen, much
lower than the prices are in Oregon
at the present time. If wheat had been
worth, say, 90 cents and had been
charged for at that rate, and bran at
1 cent a pound, the cost per fowl
would have been about 10 cents more,
or 80 cents instead of 60 cents. But
eggs arc also higher in price than they
were then.
Taking the monthly egg yield of the
six pens of Leghorns and computing
the value of the eggs laid each month
at the average wholesale prices of eggs
in Portland during the past, two years,
tho results would be as follows:

food costing 0 cents when fed to hens
produces eggs worth sf2.5S. This is a
pretty good margin of profit in feed
ing 90 -cent wheat.
It may be said that the average
flock of hens does not lay 144 eggs per
fowl. That is true. It is also true
that 344 eggs per fowl is not phenom
enal. The right kind of hens properly
attended should averago 150 and well
bred hens considerably more. Th av
erage farm flock will not average 125,
probably not 100.
In these experiments all the food
eaten was paid for at market prices
and tho cost averaged only 66 cents
per hen. Tho cost would have been
only 80 cents if the wheat had cost 90
cents per bushel. The fanner, how
ever, who keeps fifty or a hundred
liens can do letter than that, for on
the average farm that number of hens
may be kept largely on the waste pro
ducts or by-products of the farm. They!
will find the animal food in tho fields
in the shapo of bugs grasshoppers, ;
le able to recognize it:
"The stem is cylindrical, or tapers a
little toward the "lower end. Near its
upper end is' a sort of collar, usually
termed a 'ring,' which encircles it.
i This is very delicate, white like tho
i stem, and of very thin, satiny texture.
The circular, expanded disk into which
j the stem fits is called the 'cap.' The
'surface is sometimes white, although
j sometimes brownish, and usually cov
: ered by a thin layer of delicate threads.
I The flesh or inner portion is more com
pact, and is white also. Numerous thin
plates, or 'gills,' are on the under side
of the cap, which radiate from near the
stem to the margin of tho cap. When
the plant is very young the gills are
first white, but soon become a dark,
pink color, and in age changes to dark
brown. Tho substance of the stem is
less compact at the center, but the stem
is not really hollow, though in some in
stances there are slight indications of
it. This mushroom will be found iu
sod, where shade is plentiful.
"It is probable that the mushroom
responsible for a majority of the deaths
from eating this plant is the Amanita
phalloides. By a novice, it might eas
ily be taken for the Agaricus campes
tris. However, the former usually oc
curs in the woods, while the edible va
riety just described occurs in open
places. Professor G. F. Atkinson, of the
botany division of the Cornell univer
sity agricultural experiment station, de
scribes the Amanita phalloides as fol
lows: "It is pure white, and possesses an
annulus or collar, but what is most
important the base of the stem rests in
a cup-like envelope called the volva.
The pileus in this form is
smooth, viscid to the touch, and pure
white, as is also the annulus, stem and
volva, though the latter is soiled by
particles of earth. The stem is nearly
cylindrical, tapering slightly from the
bulbous base. It is hollow, or stuffed
with cottony, mycelial . threads. The
gills are usually pure white, even in
age, and are nearly free from the stem.
When decaying the plant emits a very
disagreeable odor." From Washington
State college, Pullman.
An inquiry which will be of interest
to fruit growers of southwestern Wash
ington and northwestern Oregon was
referred to tho department of horticul
ture. It follows:
"Kindly give me some advice con
corning the growing of raspberries and
blackberries under the conditions found
in southwestern Washington. I would
be obliged to you for information con
cerning the-growing of pluuis, cherries
and apples in this region."
Professor W. S. Thornber replied:
"You w'll have no difficulty in
growing raspberries and blackberries in
your part of the country, providing you
use good judgment in selecting your va
rieties and in planting. If the low land
is well drained you had better plant
blackberries, but if the land is not well
drained you will have difficulty in !
growing any form of small fruit there. I
However, the blackberry will come !
nearer to growing in poorly drained land '
than the raspberries will. In choosing ;
varieties of blackberries, use the Mam- !
moth for extra early, the Snyder for J
middle earlv and the Evergreen for I
late. Kaspberries require a dryer and. i
especially, well drained soil, and with ,
such conditions in your part of the !
state von should be able to grow re- i
markable crops of them. The t'uthbert i
is the standard for commercial work on
the west side; also the Antwerp, the j
Superlative and the Marlboro are excel-
lent berries for growth there.
"Plums will do well upon a ver.,
moist soil, nnd will stand a poorly
drained soil better than the majoritv of
other fruits. The Peach, the Yellow
F.gg. the Tragedy, the Willard. the Lom
bard and other varieties almost without
number will do well in the region you
refer to. Almost any cherry will suc
ceed there. The Koval Anns," the Kings,
tne Lamberts and the May Dukes would
be good varieties to plant. The varie
ties of apples that will do especially
well there arc more or less limited.
The Yellow Transparent, the Duchess,
the Oldenberg and the Gravenstein for
cany apples, nnd the Northern Spv
Olynipia, Paldwin, Grimes Co
possibly a few Khodo Island
ior laior varieties win do q
Other varieties, such as Hen II iv
Gano and the Jonathan, do not seem to
be entirely adapted trt your part of
Washington." From Washington State
college, Pullman.
