Poultry Keeping.

Powdered or fine broken charcoal
is invaluable in the poultry house IN
keeping it wholesome for the fowls,
and making a most valuable manure.
The fowls will consume part of it,
and are not SO liable to disease where
the premises are limited and contin-
ed. Wash your roosts occasionally
with Kerosene. This prevents the
accumulation Of lice in the poultry
houses, and the fumes of this pun.
gent oil permcate the feathers of
your fowls at night, and drive the
vermin from their bodies. Or spriE-
kle little carb"lic powder on the
roosts. At from five to six months
old separate the young cocks from
the pullets, and rear each sex by it.
self. Separate the cocks from the
hens in July, or as soon as moulting
begins. When you wish TO mate
them for breeding (n December or
january is time enough to allow
them to run together. If you COM
mcnce with fowls instead of eggs,
buy of reliable men who know what
you want, and who will deal honora-
by with you. Pay such Il man his
price; get good stock of whatever va
ricty it may be, and take care of it
after you get it. Permit all your
hens so inclined to set and hatch one
brood in the year. 1t is better for
the fowls, and you will get just as
many eggs from them in twelve
months as if you took the trouble to
break them up.-Cor. Country Gen

WHEAT GROWING UNPROFITABLE.
The Wisconsin Jeffel son Co. Un.
ion goes tor wheat farming rough
shod. There is some truth in the
first Propositions, and the latter are
essentially correct. 1t says:
Wheat growing has nearly ruin.
ed this section of Wisconsin. 1t has
destroyed the fertility of one of the
best soils that ever the sun shone on.
1t has introduced 4 vast army of in
scc;s, which now stand ready to de-
stroy crops. Worse than all, it has
struck the farmer himself with IA
mental blight. Like intemperance,
it steals away his brain making him
oblivious to his own folly. The cul-
ture of grassland corn, and the rails.
ing of beet, pork, butter and cheese
is the remedy for our impoverished
farms and farmers. Dairymen are
getting rich, grain-raisers are getting
poorer every year. The profits that
come from grass culture arc not eX-
cesslye, but they are sure, and be-
sides the farmer is not selling out
his farm by the bushel."
