C.I HOW 10 CHOOSE PI j DUCTION OF E l Characteristics of Chickens T1 General Purpose Breeds? j Plymouth Rock Mc Breeds of poultry can be conveni| eotly divided Into two classes: (1) I the egg breeds, and (2) the general ; purpose breeds. This division is like | that of cattle into beef and dairy , types, and of horses into light and | heavy classes. In the egg breeds of poultry th? j primary requirement Is the production of a great number of eggs of j standard size. The fowls are not expected to be prime table specimens, I but they must lay throughout the ! rear, except when they have to pest | and recuperate. They do not sit and , hatch chickens and they lay whlte} shelled eggs. The more popular egg : breeds are Leghorns, Minor cas, An| mnas and Cam pines. The most pepu. tar variety of these breeds is the Malle Comb White Leghorn. All large egg farms are stocked with White Leghorn pallets and hens, because it Is possible to obtain breeding stock In this variety that has blood lines of heavy egg production behind It. Pullets from a heavylaying strain are better layers than pullets of no special breeding. r ' ii, gaa rrpg UrttHUTB OK* SOrfaTKRM 4* ' ' ? ' How cam one detect beery laying charaeteristics in & mature pullet or aon? Notice the illustration of the egg ;ype hen. Note how her body resembles the wedge shape of the dairy sow. Narrow and trim at her neck and wide and deep at the rear, she has the greater part of her body behind her legs. A good layer has a large, eoft, flexible rear end, dropping down between bar legs and so wide that the legs are eet far apart to acoommodate K. The rear end of the hen corresponds to the udder of the lairy cow and must be large and yielding, not small and hard. j Legal. Advertisements. | Citation Notice.

This distance snouia oe as wiu? i as four fingers when the hen is laying. When the hen has this depth and > is also wide acroae her rear k prove# that she has an abundance of room to manufacture eggs constantly and particularly the egg ehalls, which are formed In this part of her body. Such a hen wiH lay well when properly oared for. Hene with a smad distance between the pelvic bones end rear of breastbone and tight or '?n yielding rear body are not good layers.

Chicago, June 26:?The national lommittee of the Progressiye party oday endorsed Charles E Hughes tor President, and the pdrty boirn in .912 practically went out of existence is a national political organization. ?he vote was 32 to 6, with nine nembers declining to vote. Thp Hppiainn tn pnrlnrsp thp Rf? tublican Presidential norpinee came ,t the end of a stormy session. The ight for Hughes's endorsement was ?d by George W Perkins, of New fork; Jas R Garfield, of Ohio, and Chester H Rowell, of California. The radical element in the committee, represented by John M Parer, of Louisiana, nominee of the 'rogressive convention for Vice 'resident; Matthew Hale, of Massahusetts; Bainbridge Colby, of New rork, and Henry F Cochems, of Visconsin, vigorously protested gainst the endorsement of any canidate for President and fought the majority at every step of the proeedings. The minority's first move /as to insist in an open session of he committee, and it won this point o nnmK^r nf nnmmiffoompn :d by Mr Parker, bolted the meet- I lg' I After Oscar King Davis, secre- 1 ary of the committee, had read Col ' 'heodore Roosevelt's letter finally eclining the Progressive nomination ( or President, and urging that Mr lughes be supported by Progres- ( ives in order to defeat President { Vilson, the committee voted to ac- < ept Col Roosevelt's declination and ; ook a recess for luncheon. At the beginning of the afternoon | ession Chairman Hale ruled the i ext order of business was to fill the < acancy on the ticket caused by 1 toosevelt's refusal to run. Bainbridge Colby, of New York, \ iresented the name of Victor Mur- j i ,ock, of Kansas, chairman of the 1 ational committee, now on his way j o China. This led to a clash beween Raymond Robins, of Illinois, j nd Mr Colby, in which the lie was iassed.

Detroit, June 24:?Plans for blast furnaces and part making plants, to De erected at the River Rouge and the Pere Marquette Railroad by the Ford Motor Company at a cost of 58,000,000, were announced today. At least four furnaces will be ?rected, and it is the company's plan to have ore brought direct to them, eaving the Ford Company dependent on no one but the mines and its >wn resources. This action was deeded upon despite the fact that the company now has contracts with ether firms extending over a period )f four years for parts not now nade in the Detroit plant. Work on the new plant will be berun in the fall and will not interfere with the previously announced plana )f Henry Ford to erect a huge tracer plant. Operations on the latter will not begin before spring. Along with the announcement of ;he increased operations comes the eport that Henry Ford was recenty offered $200,000,000 for the Ford jlant. Ford refused, adding that luring his life the plant would not fall into the hands of capitalists, vho would make the plant the basis ? mi. . TIT 7.1 >f a monopoly.? -' ?? rrvriu. IE CAREFUL AFTER FEVFR, COLD OR 6RIP Many Fatal Cases of Kidney Trouble Can Je Traced to Some Infectious Disease. Colds, fevers and infectious dis?ases very often leave the kidneys veak. So little attention is given the :ondition of the kidneys during re;overy from the original trouble that i severe attack of kidney disease oft?n follows. Here's how it happens: rhe kidneys are worked hard enough n healthy times. They have to filter :he blood. In any germ disease the >lood is loaded with extra poisons nade by the disease germs. This jverwork tends to weaken the kidieys. After colds, grip.scarlet fever, ;yphoid, measles, pneumonia, diphtheria, tonsilitis or chicken pox, watch 'or backache and urinary disorders, ind promptly use Doan's Kidney Pills. Kingstree people have found Doan'3 reliable in many forms of ridney trouble. Here is a Kingstree woman's ex? )erience: Mrs S H Dubose, Kingstree, says: 'A spell of la grippe weakened my cidneys, and my back began to ache erribly. I could hardly turn over in >ed,I was so sore and lame. I tired ;asily and could hardly do my housevork. I suffered from dizzy spells ' tnd the kidney secretions, being iregular in passage, annoyed me coniiderably. When I heard about loan's Kidney Pills I got some at he Scott Drug Co's. Two boxes :ured me." Price 50c, at all dealers. Don't limply ask for a kidney remedy?get Doan's Kidney Pills?the same that :ured'Mrs Dubose. Foster-Milburn >, Props, Buffalo. N Y.
