-For good resulU wito g ou

IIJUM U't fe'-- " .
gander should be two years old, match-
c than
ed with two geese noi juuu
two years. They can be six years old
and have good results, for the older
the geese are the better breeders they
make, but the ganders are not proflta
ole to keep when they are over Ave
rears old. Care should be taken not to
let them get too rat aunug w
for If thev are the eggs will not be
fertile Thev do not require a very
warm place. In fact, they do better to
..i.t- 4,. thomef-ires a creater part or
the time. I turn mine in the yard with
the stock, and they are in a setter con
dition for use In the epring, and I
have better lu with the goslings
They should begin to lay the middle or
March. If I wish the geese to keep on
laying I set the ejrgs under hens, but
set one goose at the same time if I
i.nr if not I raise them very
nleely with the hen. Then they can be
made to lay two or three litters of
eggs. I know of forty goslings being
raised from two geese this year. They
were pastured like cattle and were
very little trouble to the owner after
starting them to growing. When the
goslings hatch leave them In the nest
until strong. If the ben is kind and
not restless they do much better than
to take them out of the nest and wrap
them in flannel, but I have taken them
out of the nest and had good success
with them. When the goslings are all
out and are strong, if it is warm and
dry I take them to a grassy spot
where I have built a yard, or runway,
and put them in a coop if I put them
with a hen; if with the goose I put her
down in the yard, and I feed the old
goose, but I do not feed the goslings
for thirty-six hours. For their feed I
give them a little oatmeal sprinkled on
their backs. By sprinkling it on their
backs I can easily teach them to eat.
They are very little trouble after that.
I keep them In the yard for three or
four days and then turn them out to
go where they wish, giving tnem plen
ty of fresh water to drink ana turning
thwm In a sheltered place at night and
.always getting them under cover when
it rains, for a hard rain will kui gos
lings. They are not subject to dis
ease of any kind, and one can just see
them grow every day.
"The Emlxlen and Toulouse are the
writer's choice. They are satisfactory
on the market and very interesting to

Moistur. In Fowl House.
Dampness in a henhouse is caused
primarily by warm air taking up
moisture by evaporation and having
the moisture condensed (squeezed out)
by becoming cold. Moisture occurs in
a henhouse from the breath of fowls,
from the droppings and the water
pans. If the house is open, this air
laden with the moisture can pass out
readily, so that the nlr within is as
drv as the air without. If the air Is
closely confined in a tight house, con
densation takes place inside the house.
If the house were as tight on the
front as it is on the other sides, top
and ends, and without ventilation, the
air would become warmer, thereby ab
sorbing more moisture, which, when
the outside wulls become cold, would
condense the moisture by coming in
contact with the cold walls. The
moisture when condensed out of the
air makes the litter and wulls damp,
and we say that the house "sweats."
Whenever this moisture Is again taken
into the nlr the house is made cold by
the process of evaporation. That Is
one reason why a damp house is a cold
house.

Temperature of Henhouses.
It is as important that the henhouse
be kept cool in summer as it is that it
shall be warm in winter. It Is a com
mon fault In henhouse construction to
overlook the Importance of providing
for the free circulation of air, particu
larly the escaping of warm air, which
accumulates In the higher purts of the
house. In order to overcome this de
fect in a measure an opening is pro
vided uliove the windows where a door
hung nt the top swings out, shading
the opening so that the sun cannot
shine In anil permitting the warm air
which accumulates at the highest por
tion of the roof to pass out freely.

Review savs f Unic-rn roo'. ( HtloiiifM
DViteii ) one'of the chi:f ingredients of Dr.
Pierce's Favorite Prescription:
"A remedy which nvuriably acts as a
uterine invitrorator an' always favors a
condition which makes for normal ac
tivity of the entire system, cannot fail to
be of great usefulness and of the utmost
importance to the general practitioner oi
medicine. "In Helonias we have a medi
cament which more fully answers the
abave purposes than mvj other drug with
wh'wh I fun ncq'.uilnted. in the treat
ment of diseases peculiar to women it is
seldom that a case is seen which does not
present some indication for this remedial
agent."
Of another Important ingredient Prof.
John King, M. D., says: "As a partus
pnepanxt'jr, Blue Cohosh has enjoyed a
well-merited reputation, for when used
by delicate women, or those who experi
ence painful latwrs, for several weeks pre
vious, it gives tone and vigor to all the
parts engaged, facilitating its progress,
I'ui relieoiivj much gufferiiuj." Prof.
Hale testifies of women who have taken
Caulophyllura. all had very easy labors
and made good recoveries. Blue Cohosh
acts as an anti-abortive by relieving the
irritation upon which the trouble de
pends. He continues, "It has been em
ployed to relieve irritation of Die repro
diwtlve organs dependent on congestion.
It controls chronic inflammatory states
of organs and gives tone in cases of de
bility." The foregoin? are only a few brief ex
tracts taken from among the volumes
of endorsements which the most eminent
medical writers have given the ingredi
ents entering into Dr. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription.
"Favorite Prescription" is the only

are not afraid to print their formula on

The government has lately
an agreement with the Rosebud Sioux
Indians for the throwing open to set
tlement of 1,000,000 acres of land locat
ed In Tripp county, S. D., just as soon
as the details can be arranged. The
Indians are to receive ?G per acre for
land sold to settlers during the first
three months, $4.50 for that taken dur
ing the next four months and $2.50 for
all disposed of after that, including
school lands. Indian children born
within the past eight years are to re
ceive allotments. It Is estimated that
after the Indian allotments are extract
ed there will be 700,000 acres left for
other settlers.
During the recent session of congress
a bill was passed increasing the ap
proprlation for the bureau of entomol
ogy from $75,000 to $113,000 in order
that scientific investigation may be
made of the white fly pest of Florida,
the gypsy moth of the New England
states, thrlps that attack the- cherry
trees of California and the tobacco In
sect which is devastating the dark to
bacco regions of Tennessee and Ken
tucky. The white fly, which is one of
the newer pests, has destroyed In the
neighborhood of $400,000 worth of or
onges and nursery stock during the
past three years, and the need of gov
ernment relief Is urgent
Every farm of 160 acres ought both
In theory and practice to support a
flock of thirty sheep. Of some CO va
rieties of common weeds sheep will eat
all but about fifty, and the sendee
these animals wonld render along the
line of weed destroying would more
than pay for their keep, while the gaiu
they would make on the ration thus
lonsuuied would be almost clean profit.
True, the keeping of sheep necessitates
better fences, but these are bound to
come as land advances in value and as
a type of agriculture is followed that
is at all worthy of the name. Where
one has not had experience he should
begin in a small way with a few
grade ewes and a thoroughbred buck
and remember that the flock should be
changed from field to field during dif
ferent years to avoid trouble from
stomach worms, should be provided
with dry quarters and not be exposed
to heavy winds and storms. Aside from
their value as consumers of waste
on the farm, many feeders have fuund
that allowing lambs to run in corn
fields has brought ia a larger return
than has any other disposal cf tv.-crop.
