REMEDY FOR FOWL LICE.
Suggestion Advanced Not a Theory
but an Established Fact.
The breeder of chickens, if he has
not used tobacco stems, will likely on
reading the above heading to this
article say to himself, "another
theory." I say no; it is a fact that
the remedy of tobacco stems, if
properly applied, is as complete a

the fowl house and of exterminating
them after they get there as water
is an exterminator of fire.
Send an order somewhere into
North Carolina to a house which
manufactures smoking tobacco or
any other brand of tobacco which
necessitates the cutting up of the
stems of the leaves into bits about a
half to an inch long and have 100 or
1,000 pounds of these tobacco stems,
according to the size of the chicken
house and the number of nests that
will be used. Make the nests of
these stems, and if there are no
mites in the chicken house at that
time there never wiH be one there
as long &9 tobacco stems are used
for nestware.
If lice are among the fowls, collect
all the old nest straw and burn
if orifi thpn fill fhp npsts with tnhflr
co stems. But before doing that,
make a strong tea of the stems in
boiling water and with a small paint
or whitewash brush paint the bottom
and sides of the nests, also
the roosts and the places where the
roost posts form the sides of the
house. Paint the roosts and these
places several times in the course of
two weeks. Scatter tobacco stenrs
on the floor of the chicken house
and with a broom sweep them gently
about the floor every few days.
In the course of ten .days it will

Don't, from mistaken notions of
economy, mix the tobacco stems
with straw, hay, sawdust or anything
else, but always use pure tobacco
stems unmixed with any substance
whatever.

to tobacco that cats have
and it is a well known fact that the
least bit of nicotine will kill a cat as
quickly as carbolic acid will.

A MISTAKEN IDEA
There are some people who still resort
to drugged pills or alcoholic syrups to
overcome colds, nervousness or general
debility, and who know that the pure,
unadulterated nourishment in Scott's
Emulsion is eminently better, but refrain
from taking it because they fear it may
lead to excessive fat or obesity.
This is a mistaken idea, because Scott's
Emu'sion !:: 1 lengthens the body before
making fles blood-forming proper- I
ties aia n.i'u.c. to throw off sickness by
building health from its very source, and
flesh is formed only by its continued use.

A meeting of the executive com-;

' Fair association was held at the
I court house here Monday. Presi|
|
I dent W E Nesmith presided and j
i about fifteen members of the com|
mittee,representing various parts of
! the county, were present and re!
ported progress in the matter of
i new subscribers to both life and annual
memberships in the association.
President Nesmith, chairman of
! the committee appointed to look after
the securing of a site, reported
that arrangements had been made
whereby Hon R H Kellahan would
sell for a moderate sum and on very
reasonable terms the old warehouse
property in North Kingstree, embra1
cing two acres of land and one large
, frame building, and that Dr D C
: Scott and Messrs M F Heller and J
' F Cooper had consented to lease the
> association other adjacent land, suf|
ficient for its purposes, for a term
of five years free of charge, with
the privilege of buying same at any
time the association might desire to
do so.
Mr Kellahan's proposition was accepted
and a committee appointed
to close the matter with him as soon
as practicable by the payment of
$500, also to ascertain what price
would be charged the association by
the other gentlemen in the event it
decided to buy the grounds so generously
leased. This committee will
make its report at a future meeting
of the executive committee. A
committee for the preparation of
grounds and buildings was appointed.
The committee appointed to get
up a catalogue of exhibits and premiums
submitted its work, which
was approved and ordered printed.

I A RUSSIAN I
WAY
By M. QUAD
Copyright 1314, by Associated Literary
Press.
. '
A man named Bogoff came to the
United States in 1865 and acquired title
to some lands in Montana, He returned
to Bussla, where he died without
knowing the value of Ma property.
A syndicate boucht nn all the anr
.rounding land and wanted that belonging
to Bogoflfs belrs.
As a member of tbe syndicate I was
sent to Russijt to put the matter
through. There was Just one thing to
be kept secret?Bogoff had paid about
$700 for property worth over $100,000.
I was to get hold of the land as cheap- (
ly as possible, giving no hint of Its
real value. Bogoff was a native of the
port of Narva, on the gulf of Finland,
and one day I landed there in search
of Information. I had my passport
and other credentials and anticipated
no trouble, but I was Ignorant of the
way things work in Russia. After taking
up quarters at a hotel I called
upon a lawyer to make Inquiries and
secure assistance. Yes, be had heard
of the Bogoffs and thought the family
could easily be found. I was to call
again on the morrow and meanwhile
he would gather such information as j
he could.
Two hours later the chief of police of
Narva entered my room with two of
bis men. The astute officer questioned
me for three long hours and was more
suspicious at the finish than at the beginning.
It was so queer that Bogofif
should have purchased that land, so
queer that he hadn't reported It on returning,
so queer that I should make
such a long journey to see the heirs,
so queer that I should seek out a law*,
yer Instead of calling at the police station.
I knew exactly what all this
meant Had I said to the lawyer In
the first place that there was a "dlrry"
in the matter for him and for the chief
of police and two or three other officials
all would have gone welL
When the chief realized that I could
not be bled be bad all my papers taken
to his office. The police were ordered
to look upon me as a suspicious person,
and a detective was detailed to watch S
me day and night.
Thinking I might carry on the business
from St Petersburg, I went to
that city and again called upon a lawyer
first of all. He was sharp enough
to realise that the property waa of considerable
valoe, and without any beating
around the bush he told me that he
would find the heir and put the matter
through for the sum of $5,000. I refused
to bribe him and'as a result soon
discovered that no lawyer would have
anything to do with the case, and only
two days bad passed before I was summoned
to the office of the chief of police.
He closed the Interview by saying
that I would be shadowed while I
remainea ac lue capiiai ana uy auviaing
me to take do further steps on my
own account to discover the Bogoffs.
I had not been provided with money
to bribe any one. I must either defy
the police and work up the case single
handed or return and report a failure.
Being firmly convinced that Mrs. Bogoff
was in Narva, I secretly left St
Petersburg for that town. Securing
rooms In a boarding house and disguising
my personal appearance to a considerable
extent I prosecuted my Inquiries
under one excuse and another
until I at length discovered the woman.
She was living In her own home and In
poor circumstances and wa-3 rejoiced
it the prospect of selling the land,
which she remembered her husband
referring to as a poor Inveatment on
tils part
I must have the assistance of a notary
to make out the papers, and It
ivas while seeking this assistance that
:be police got track of me again. Aa
soon as they Interfered I was balked,
rbey not ouly warned every notary in
S'arva against me. but the wldotv was
ibliged to take a Journey and go Into
ilding. Thiugs might have stopped
iiere had I been a cool and placid man.
CVhen I found the police hounding me
igain 1 lost my temper and gave the
:b!ef my opinion of things In general
ind of his own conduct In particular.
: was arrested; on what charge I never
mew.
As soon as Incarcerated-1 asked leave
:o communicate with the American
inlster. This request was refused. 1
vas not allowed books, writing mateiais
or other food than the regular
irison fare and was. In fact treated
d all respects as a criminal. On the
bird day tbe chief of police sent for
ae and asked If I would leave Russia
f given my liberty. I replied la tbe
icgatlve and was returned to prison.
Jy threats that the matter would be
horoughly sifted by our representative
inly made him smile, and be quietly
nformed me that be would keep me In
irlson for the rest of my life If need
ie. On the seventh day he sent for
ne again. 1 bad now changed my
aind. I saw that I could be sent oBT
o Siberia If the officials so desired
ind that there was no longer tbe
lightest hope of accomplishing my erand.
I therefore answered him that
was ready and willing to leave the
za^s dominions at a moment's notice,
nd as a steamer was to leave port
hat evening four police officers were
letalled to escort me on board. Not
nly that, but I was locked up In a
tateroom and not set at liberty until
iooo next day. I found Americans,
Englishmen and Frenchmen on tbe
ioat, but cot no sympathy from any
f them. ' rhe contrary, I was called
n Idiot for my conduct, and every one
greed that I might have been packed
ff to Siberia without any one but the
oltce being tbe wiser.
