(Reprinted By Request) A" Northern visitor gives us a recipe for keeping young turkeys from get ting sick and dying in the distressing Way they sometimes do. Some attri bute their demise to their having got ten their feet wet, but It Is now pretty definitely established that the trouble Is Intestinal due to a germ which Infects the poultry yard. Turkeys are i healthy the first year on new ground j but after that trouble Is liable )to hap i pen. The recelpe Is : Put a teasponful of powdered Ipecac (which you can get at any drug store) in the mash for twenty turkeys once a week. This Is a preventative, but df the turkey gets sick give from one to two drops of the liquid ' tincture of ipeoac. One duop Is enough for little turkeys which are the ones most liable to the disease. Use a medicine dropper and squirt a little water down the turkey's throat after the ipecac. The gentleman who recommends this treatment says that neither he or any of Iris friends has lost a turkey since using It.

When his vessel did not return he started home on foot and succeeded in finding his way to Montreal through a thousand miles of tangled wilderness.

The fort he found in ruins, But finally suc ceeded in locating and rescuing Tonty, who had been driven out by the Iroquois Indians. ? This rtverway to the Mississip pi became one of the leading avenues of communication be tween the French In the North, and Louisiana. French settlers soon located here and estab lished the most friendly rela tions with the Indians.
