Such nests can be taken out of doors,
emptied and cleaned in a moment, and
having no corners or open joints, as do
boxes, there is no place for vermin to
hide about them. This is a special
point in favor of the use of such pails as
nests, for the ordinary nest-is usually
a breeding place for these troublesome

Cleanliness is the one- great demand.
The war against dirt. and hence against
bacteria. and vermin is a. war that will
know no end. Let no man suppose
that he can cleanse his house-and pens
and trust them to keep clean. The bat-
tle must- be fought over and over again
and the successful poultryman is the
determined fighter. The first campaign
must be made against lice and mites.
Whitewashing the pens is supposed to
be a. great remedy, and without doflbt
it is a good one, but it is possible for
the pens to be kept clear of lice with—
out the use of lime. We realize the
fact that whitewashing has its disad-
vantages. Not only does the pen soon
get to looking very dirty inside, on ac-
count of all dirt showing on the white
background, but very often the pens
become a nuisance in that one cannot
step inside them without having the
marks‘ remain on- his clothes. There
are washes that may be used and be
quite effective as lime. The man that
has a sprayer can use it. easily in his
chicken house and thoroughly wet- d’ll '
exposed surfaces All cracks‘should be
obliterated, and this is not a hard thing
to do if the poultry raiser has aprop-
erlv builtl 1.0use But whether lime or
something else be used the work must-
be carefully followed up. It is et‘en.

Food That Costs Nothing.
During the warmer season when al-
lowed to forage for themselves, each
l'owl gathers several ounces of meat
daily. When the supply of grasshop-
pers, twigs. flies and worms fails. it may
be furnished from the table. the scrap
foot or the market. Green footlmuy be
tarnished in cabbage, vegetables. up-
plcs or cut. clover. A warm breakfast
should be given on cold days and there
should be no lack in the supply ofdrink.
A meat diet with grain and vegetal‘rlcs
is essential to the well being of l’owls
during the cold weather. when worms.
bugs and insects are not to be found by
the birds. but in summer the fowls can
secure such foods for themselves..-

my calling, the weak spot In my ana-
tomy is my back, probably caused by
becoming over heated lo a warm at-
mosphere and then exposed to cold. Be
that as it may, I had considerable
trouble with my kidney, although I
used simple household remedies, and
on one 01 two occasions took medicine,
I was never able to completely rid my-
self of the attacks. Reading about the
work per for med by Doan’ s Kidney Pills
in and around the Nor walks. I came to
the conclusion that they might help me,
and procuring a. supply I commenced
the treatment. After completing it, I
was so greatly improved in my general
health that I conscientiously endorse

he succcded in getting cash from pop—

Mr. (look is one of the most widely
known men personally in the state of
Missouri. and wherever he is known he
is liked. Sam is the way he is addressed
by most of his friends. Born in Vin-
ginia in 1352. he moved to Missouri in
early boyhood. His first. political tri-
umph was achieved at the, age of 26.
when he was elected sheriff and col—
lector of Warren county, M0, in the
face of a strong republican majority.
Four years later. when he retired from
office, he took editorial charge of the
Warrenton Banner, and in 1885 he pur-
lchnsed the Mexico lntclligencer, which
papcrhe has since edited. He. has been
very successful as a newspaper man,
and his editorials are widely copied in
Missouri papers. In 1892 Mr. Cook went
into politics again, this time as secre—
lury of the state democratic committee ,
and two years later he became chair-
