Some time in 1864 there was num-
her Of army officers stopping at no.
eel IN Washington. Among them was
i Captain Emerson. There was also
], Captain Jones, who was q first-rate
fellow, d good officer and very pom-
pons Emerson and Jones used 10
dave a good deal Of joking together at
she table and elsewhere. One day at
The dinner table, when The dining ball
was well filed, Captain Jones finished
his dinner first, when Emerson spoke
10 him in a loud voice aud said,
NHaloa, captain, see here, ! want to
speak 10 you d minute The captain
turned and walked hack to the table,
aud bent over him, when Emerson
whispered, 2 wanted TO ask yon how
far you would have gone il ] had not
spoken to you' The captain iever
changed muscle, but Strengthened
up aud pnt his fingers into his vest
Docket and said, IN voice loud enough
for all ID hear him, Captain Emerson,

the fact is, | haven't cent with me

walked away. Emerson was the col.

Look Ahead,

This is the time to arrange your crops
for the next season, and let us suggest, not
so much less corn or wheat as a greater
diversity of products. More dairy, more
potatoes and turnips, a poultry yard which
shall have special care and attention, so
that scores of dozens of eggs may be sent to
market where now only single dozens 90.
The locality of the Delaware Peninsula
gives a special advantage to this branch of
farm produce, because we are so near the
great cities that the eggs go there fresh and
demand the top-most prices. In all pro-
ducts where our locality gives US this ad-
vantage, we should study and strive to
excel. Here circumstances give us an ad-
vantage, and it is to our interest to make
the most of this advantage. In most farm
products the Great West smashes US clean
out of the market, but in peaches, sweet
potatoes, eggs, early apples, and some other
products we have our own chance, and if
we will, we can excel all other sections in
the production and marketing of all these
in which the odds are for, instead of against
US. This is the true principle to be con-
sidered in pitching our crops for the new
year, and sensible farmers will be governed
by it more and more for the future.
In the egg and poultry business it is a
fact that large focks soon become diseased
and this is heavy drawback to producing
eggs on a large scale. For Peninsula farm.
ers the egg business should be the leading
idea, and not the production of the birds
for market. In the latter branch the West
can beat us again, but it is in the former
that we have the advantage. To this
end the best laying varieties of chick
ems should be selected without regard to
their setting qualities. We do not want
them to set but to lay, and it is the laying
qualities that we want. To obviate the
tendency to disease in large focks, it is
essential that their houses should be kept
clean, that they be well supplied with pure,
clean water, so that they will not be com.
peeled to drink from the dirty pound pud-
dies, and a full supply of all necessary and
wholesome food in as large a variety as pos
siblc, oth4t they can have frequent changes.
Gra9. and lime should at all times
be accessible, and wheat, rye and oats used
as food, instead of corn all the time. If
with these, and all other proper precautions,
the fowls begin to droop, new houses and
yards should be made for them on as widely
distant parts of the farm, as circumstances
will allow, and in this way you may have
ten focks instead of one, and a thousand
hens instead of only hundred. That a
flock of a thousand hens will paw more than
all the corn and wheat you now raise, NAV
at first seem to you a startling proposition
but we should not be surprised if you would
find on trial that it did it. Let us see
One thousand hens at one hundred egg.
