BAN THE “GET THE AXE” CUBE Little Excuse For the Widely Prevalent Custom of Kilting Chickens at the First Sign of Illness; Use of Simple Home Remedies or Easily Obtainable Commercial Preparations May Save Valuable Birds and Many Dollars of Profits. The wife of a friend of mine tells with great rfelish of waking up not long ago and finding him in the throes of a violent night mare. He was struggling desper ately against some imaginary as sailant and shouting at the top of his voice, “No-no-no! Don’t! I tell you it’s toothache, dam you —nothing but toothache!” Being finally roused up and pressed for an explanation, he admitted rather sheepishly that he had dreamed a huge rooster had him penned up and wras preparing to cut his throat with his spurs because he looked so droc-py and had a huge swelling on his jaw. Not wisnmg to Jose tnis auvamage, friend wife at once reopened an argument that had been waging for months between them—“Servo you right if it really happened,” she snapped. “Any man who is too lazy to save birds that could be saved with just a little trouble ought to have to take his own medicine.” iSometimes I feel much the same way about it, for chickens are much more than a mere hobby with me. But aside from all such sentimental considerations as might influence the enthusiast, there are some good sound rea sons why it is unwise to resort to the axe every time a chicken begins to show signs of some more or less serious affliction. For one thing, the first examina tion doesn’t always tell the whoie i story. Not every sniffle spells j roup nor is every droopy, dispir- j ited fowl infested with worms to an incurable degree. I All sick fowls, no matter what | their ailment, should be removed at once from the flock and either ( killed or doctored. Chickens can be cured as well as live stock, or people, when sick, and I believe foi individual treatment in most cases. I have been doctoring poltry diseases on my experimen tal farm for more than 20 years and have had excellent results ex cept in the incurable ailments such as T. B., cholera, baccillary i white diarrhoea and other dis eases known to be incurable. A well protected coop, box or pen, apart from the flock is very necessary in which to place the sick fowls. Sick chickens placed in such quarters can be watched. If they develop unmistakable signs of diseases known to be incur able, kill them. My many experiments during the past several years have prov en to me that Permanganate of Potash, the medicine that turns water a reddish purple color, is of little or no value in preventing or curing diseases of poultry, ■when used in the drinking water in the regular way. But I find Epsom Salts very beneficial in preventing and curing many dis eases of poultry. Each sick fowl should be given one teaspoonful of epsom salts, or for flock treat ment, one pound mixed with *a small tempting wet mash feed for each 100 hens. Sanitation and disinfecting are two of the great secrets of suc cessful poultry raising. Poultry houses and brooder rooms should be thoroughly cleaned often, and sprayed freely with a good d;p and disinfectant. Properly built chicken houses with high open fronts that face the south, that are kept clean and free from in flects by spraying with a good dip and disinfectant will do more to keep fowls healthy than anything In many cases a cure is possible with simple home remedies as easily administered as the flannel rag soaked with camphorated oil on baby’s chest when he has a cold. Furthermore, any druggist or feed merchant carries reliable preparations for the treatment of practically every poultry disease that is amendable to medication.

Such medicines are always ac ! companied by simple, complete in structions, not only for the dos ing of the feathered patients but for the general care needed to make treatment successful. Why then let them die or deliberately kill them off when they can be 'easily cured. Poultry raising is a business 1 that is or should be run for profit. | It is for the poultry raiser to de termine, therefore, whether or not any individual cure will justify the labor and expense necessary , to effect a cure. It is unquestion ably true, however, that many fowls are needlessly sacrifice! when a little extra trouble would be repaid many times over. Don’t 1 forget that every fowl in your flock represents an investment of i both time and money. You throw that away in addition to sacri- j ficing possible future profits ev- I ery time a bird is subjected to | •the “get the axe” cure if les3 drastic methods would have saved it. (Copyright, 1929, by Dr. L. D. LeGear, V. S.) MRS. POU TAKES PART IN NAVY DAY CELEBRATION j Mrs. Edward W. Pou who is in Washington, D. C., was recently invited to place a wreath on the; monument for American Wan* Mo-1 thers. Washington newspapers commented upon the exercises which were held on October 28 as « follows: John Paul Jbnes Honored. j “At the John Paul Jones monu- , merit, Mrs. Edward Pou placed a J we-ath on the monument for the 1 American War Mothers. Her s' n, j Edward S. Pou, a naval aviator, s was killed in a seaplane accident ^ 11 years ago yesterday. c “This demonstration at the montinfent was participated in \ also by the National Sojourners \ the Military Order of the World x Wair, and was presided over by \ Capt. George F. Unmacht of the ) Army’s Chemical Warfare Serv- ^ ice and president of the Washing- ( ton chapter of the order. Trib- ( utes to John Paul Jones as the , first commissioned officer of the United States Navy were paid by several speakers. “The Navy Day celebration in Washington started at 2:30 p. m., when a Navy observation plane from the Anacostia Naval Air Station bombarded visitors at the ! navy yard with small paper balls j containing messages of greeting., This was followed immediately by j the parachute jumps from the big transport plane, and from that i time on events followed each other- in rapid sequences as the | aces of the Navy and Marine air forces put their ships through their paces in a thrilling array of j stunts and practical demonstra- ' tions. “A brief demonstration also was held in the Navy Building, with short addresses by various speakers and a concert by the Marine Band.—Washington Post. Wreaths Placed. “Mrs. Edward Pou placed a wreath at the base of the monu ment on behalf of the War 'Mothers, commemorating the memory of their sons whose lives were lost in the World War. “Rear Admiral T. J. Cowie, paymaster general, United States Navy, retired, commander-in chief of the Military Order of the World War, placed a wreath in behalf of that order, while Op tain Unmacht placed another on DR.

Perhaps you are in poor health because God whom you profess to love has lessened his interest in you on account of m lack of interest in his work. You know what you ought to do but I j ou are net doing it. Remedy: Try loving and serving God with all your might. Eccles. 9:10. Quit trying to satisfy God by using only one talent when you have two or five. God is just and if you will give him a real, whole-heart ed service he will have a reason for keeping you in health fit for good work. God is not in a hurry to call a good worker from the field. Try it. God heals sick serv ants. See Matt. 8, 5 to 13. When the people of any nation I takes unto itself power (?) to \ live unto itself a self-willed, self centered life it will find war ii: its path, and war is the bloody wedge that will burst an indi vidual or family or nation frag nentos.

Do not ' limit God in his use of you, but freely let him have his way with you in promoting you from les.ser to larger fields of usefulness. Re member what Paul says, 1 Cor. 15:41, about “Star glory, moon glory and sun glory. In the mat ter of service what satisfies you may not satisfy your Lord. He made you, knows your capacity and will expect full returns. Many cease to grow in grace and fruit fulness when they buck against promotion.

Still More Millions Treat Colds Direct Round-About Method of “Dosing’* Gives Way To Modern Vaporizing Salve More and more people each year are giving up the slow, indirect way of treating colds by 4,dosing’' with internal medicines, and are adopt ing the modern direct treatment— Vicks VapoRub. Vicks goes direct to the affected parts and checks the cold in two ways — its medicated vapors, re leased by the heat of the body, are inhaled direct to the inflamed air passages; at the same time it acts direct through the skin like a poul tice or plaster, “drawing out’' tight ness and soreness. Vicks is especially appreciated by mothers because it is just rubbed on, and therefore, cannot upset children’s delicate stomachs as “dos ing” is so apt to do. Today the whole trend of medical practice is away from needless “dosing.” To keep pace with the ever-grow ing demand, the famous slogan, “17 Million Jars Used Yearly,” was raised to “21 Million” a short time ago. This figure too has been out grown, as there are now “Over 26 Million Jars Used Yearly”—a jar for every family in the United States.
