BUSINESS BITS. 
Hamilton & Co, Rosenvick, Chester Co., 
Pa., breeders and shipper^ of choice pure¬ 
bred hogs and poultry, have lately got out 
new circulars that give full information 
about their stock, prices, mode of doing 
business, etc. They wili be pleased to send 
them free to anyone wishing stock, who 
will send his address. 
Before Winter sets in we hope all our 
readers will see that there are no cracks 
in their poultry houses or cattle barns—it 
costs more for extra feed than it will to 
stop up the cracks. The Neponset Red 
Rope roofing is excellent for this purpose; 
it is both waterproof and wlndproof. F. 
W. Bird & Son, E. Walpole, Mass., will 
gladly send you sample if you request it. 
A postal will do. 
We don’t know when we have seen more 
good hard sense in a pamphlet than is 
found in “The Egg Subject,” written by 
H. B. Humphrey. It deals with egg pro¬ 
duction in a practical manner, pointing out 
how to get eggs when bringing the highest 
prices, and its conclusions are based on 
proven facts—not on idle theories. Mr. 
Humphrey will send a copy to any of our 
readers who ask for it. Address Hum¬ 
phrey & Sons, Box 39, Joliet, Ill. 
“More Money from Your Hens” is the 
title of a new book issued by the Stratton 
Mfg. Co., of Erie, Pa., manufacturers of 
the well-known line of Dandy green bone 
cutters. It is attractively printed in two 
colors, well illustrated, and goes into the 
question of making poultry profitable in a 
very thorough manner. Of course, it places 
special emphasis on the value of freshly- 
cut green bone as an egg producer and 
growth promoter. There is no doubt In the 
minds of poultry raisers that a little green 
bone added to the feeding ration is pro¬ 
ductive of the very best results in two 
ways; it not only saves in the grain bill, 
an important feature this Fall when grain 
is high, but it also makes the poultry more 
productive in every way. You will be in¬ 
terested in the handsome book which they 
send free. 
Tecumseh Park, Springfield, O., was oc¬ 
cupied on September 28 by 600 employee* of 
the Foos Manufacturing Company, of that 
city, accompanied by their families and 
friends, as guests of the company in al 
fresco entertainment. The spontaneous 
gaiety of the great party was due to the 
good feeling between employer and em¬ 
ployees in this big manufacturing plant—a 
good feeling that is daily reflected in a 
tremendous output of grinding mills, port¬ 
able forges and blacksmith tools of the 
very highest quality. A very fine dinner 
was spread and many entertaining diver¬ 
sions supplied, including music from a fa¬ 
mous orchestra. The Foos Manufacturing 
Company affords an example worthy of 
general emulation, certainly, one that 
would redound to the honor of any em¬ 
ployer, and incidentally afford a monetary 
return. Such kindly thought and consid¬ 
eration of the welfare of the employed is 
only too rare. 
Probablv there are very few of our 
readers who do not know by name, and 
favorably by reputation, the Keystone 
Farm Machine Co. of York, Pa. These 
people have this season brought out a 
number of new machines of interest to the 
farmer, but probably no one of them so 
deserving of notice as their new “Keystone 
Tony” feed cutter, which is a distinct ad¬ 
vance on their previous efforts. For some 
time they have made and sold a machine 
under the above name, but the new pat¬ 
tern has fully double the capacity of the 
old, and without requiring any noticeable 
increase in power. This somewhat re¬ 
markable result is obtained by the double 
knives and eccentrics. This feature feeds 
the machine accurately and rapidly, and 
the double knives take care of the in¬ 
creased quantity as readiiy as in the sin¬ 
gle machine formerly made. Intelligent 
farmers are all convinced of the economy 
of feeding cut feed. It will be par¬ 
ticularly valuable to the average farmer 
and stockman, and it is a source of gen¬ 
uine profit to the dairyman. The manu¬ 
facturers will very gladly send their cata¬ 
logues and descriptive circulars on appli¬ 
cation. Write for them to-day, and ad¬ 
dress Keystone Farm Machine Co., 1547 
N. Beaver street., York, Pa. 
CONSUMPTION CURED. 
An old physician, retired from practice, had 
placed in his hands by an East India missionary 
the formula of a simple vegetable remedy for the 
speedy and permanent cure of Consumption, 
Bronchitis, Catarrh, Asthma and all Throat and 
Lung Affections; also a positive and radical cure 
for Nervous Debility and all Ne vousComplaints. 
Having tested its wonderful < irative powers in 
thousands of Ceases, and desiring to relieve human 
suffering, I will send freeof charge to all who wish 
it, this recipe, in German, French or English, with 
full directions tor preparing and using. Sent by 
mail by addressing, with stamp, naming this pa¬ 
per, w. A. Noyes, 847 Powers Block, Rochester, N. Y. 
When you write advertiaera mention Tbb
