Only a few year* ago the only article
tasting o f maple was maple sugar.
There is now an article on the market
that is so like the real maple sugar
that evCn old Vermonters are unable
to tell the difference. In faet, on ac
count o f its healthful qualities, being
a purely vegetable product, neither
sticky nor sickly, it is preferred by
many people who form erly used only
the regulation maple sugar.
This new extract is called Mapleine.
I t is a Seattle product and can be used
to advantage by the« housewife in a
va riety o f ways. F o r instance, a syrup
like maple ean be made by simply dis
solving granulated sugar in water and
adding a few drops o f Mapleine.

hed a booklet exiled Mapleine Dain

to anyone who asks fo r it. I t is full

winter I caught a sadden cold, which

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. N o medicine can cure Contagious Blood
Poison which does not rid the circulation of every particle of the virus.
8. S. S. is the one real and certain cure; it goes down to the very bottom pf
the trouble, and by removing every trace of the poison, and adding rich,
healthful qualities to the blood, forever cures this powerful disorder. 8. S. S.
is the most reliable of all blood purifiers, and its concentrated ingredients of
healthful vegetable extracts and juices ¿specially adapt it to curing this
insidions trouble. Write for our home treatment book, which ia a valuable
aid in the treatment of the different stages of the disease, and ask for any
special medical advice yon wish. N o charge for either.

The price o f whfeat Is higher now
than it has been fo r probably ten or
fifteen years, and it fh frequently said
that it is too high to feed to chickens.
Tw o or three things should be eon
sidered in this connection. First, the
priees o f poultry and eggs w ill rise i f
many ehiekens are marketed, and the
fanner who keeps his chickens w ill
nfake as mueh profit as be did when
the price o f wheat was low. That is,
the price o f poultry products w ill ad
just itself to the priees o f grata. Bee
oad, how much does it really eost to
feed a hen fo r a year? Does any one
know!-
In experiments made b y the writer,
covering several years, ia which every
ounce o f food was weighed, six pens
o f Leghorn hens consumed during the
year SM pounds wheat, 2M pounds
eorn, 208 pounds oats, 112 pounds bran
and shorts and 235 pounds skim milk,
in addition to some animal food. The
eost o f the total food per fo w l fo r the
year varied in different peas from 61
cents to 78 cent*, and averaged 66
cents. The wheat was charged at 1
cent a pound, corn at 1f t cents, opts
a t a cent, skim milk at a fifth o f a.
cent and bran and shorts at three
fifths o f a eent. The animal food eost
from 5 to 6 cents per fow L The wheat
per fow l, valued at 81.68 at local prices
fo r eggs.
T h e priees were from 10
cents to 25 easts per dozen, mueh
lower than the prices are is Oregon
at the present time. I f wheat had been
worth, say, 90 cents and had bees
eharged fo r at that rate, and bran at
1 eent a pound, the cost per fo w l
would have been about 16 cents more,
or 80 cents instead o f 66 eent*. But
eggs are also higher in price than they
were then.
Taking the monthly egg yield o f the
six pens- o f Leghorns and computing
the value o f the eggs laid each month
at the average wholesale priees o f eggs
in Portland during the past two yoars,
the results would b e as follows:

l a place o f eggs worth 81-68 per
fow l, i f their value be computed at
present priees ia Portland they would
be worth 82.58 per fow l.
In other
words, on th* basis o f present prices,
food costing 80 cents when fed to bens
produces sggs worth 82.58. This is a
pretty good margin o f profit ia feed
ing 90 cent wheat.
I t may be said that the average
flock o f hens does not lay 144 eggs per
fow l. That is true. I t is also true
that 144 eggs per fo w l is mot phenom
enal. T h * right kiad * f hens properly
attended shonld average 150 sad well-
bred hens considerably more. Th* av
erage farm flock w ill not average 128,
probably not 100.
In these experiments a ll th* food
eatsn was paid fo r at markst priees
and th* eost averaged only 66 eente
per hen. The cost would have been
only 80 cents i f the wheat had eost 90
cents per bnshel.
The fanner, how
ever, who keeps fifty or a hundred
hens ean do better than that, for on
the average farm that number o f hens
may be kept largely on the waste pro
