Food for Youu@ Turkeys.

In some cases, even the best of care fails
to secure good number ofyoung turkeys.
Before they have fully feathered up they
are the tenderest of birds, but when they
have put on "a full dress of feathers, moth
ing in the way of poultry is more hardy
or less liable to disease or disorder. As
young turkeys, like young guineas, make
such very rapid growth of feathers, when
young, they require constant care and food
in fair quantities and often, to enable them
to withstand the great strain on their sys-
TENS; and not supplying them fully at that
stage of growth is what causes so many to
drop off suddenly from no apparent cause.
Boiled egg, chopped fine, no doubt makes
good food for turkeys, to commence with,
but 1t is not at all necessary. One of the
most successful breeders of turkeys we
know of never fed crumb of boiled egg,
but commences with stale bread crumbs,
slightly mixed with new, fresh milk, Civ
inc them five or more feeds daily, but on
" in such quantities as they would eat up
clean at every feed. Onion tops or lettuce
chopped up fine and mixed with their food
was given, while an occasional seasoning
Of red (cayenne) pepper was supplied.
They were treated to sweet milk for drink
ing purposes, and when they got some lit
tie age, cottage cheese was literally sup
pIied-and they are very fond Of it. There
| is as much in the care as in the feeding,
and they must have the best of both to in
duce them to stay with its. Dampness
and dew are fatal to young turkeys; the
| reiDedg suggests itself in a preventive.

An Epicure's Fate.

MI. Rogerson, the son of Il gentleman
Of large fortune in England, after reeeiv-
ing an excellent education, was sent
abroad to make the grand tour. In this
journey young Isogerson attended to
nothing but the various modes of cook
cry and the methods of eating and drink
ing luxuriously. Before his return his
father died, when he entered into the
possession Of very large fortune. He
was now able to look over his notes of
epicurism and to discover where the
most, exquisite dishes and best cooks
were to be procured. He had no servants
but men cooks. Footman, butler, house
keeper, coachman and grooms were all
cooks Among those more professionally
50 were one from Florence, another from
Vienna, and another from Niterbo, who
was employed for the special purpose Of
dressing one particular dish only the
sdocce picante" of Florence. He had al
so GeTman cook for dressing the livers
of turkeys, and the rest were all French,
Mr. Rogerson had a messenger constantly
travelling between Brittany and London
to bring him the eggs of "a certain sort OF
plover near St Malo, and single dinner
consisting of two dishes only, sometimes
cost him upward of fifty guineas. He
counted the minutes between his meals,
and was wholly absorbed in devising
means to indulge his appetite. In the
course of nine years he found his table
dreadfully abridged by the ruin Of his for
tune, and he was verging fast to poverty.
When he had spent fortune of $4,000
and was totally ruined, friend gave him
guinea to keep him from starving; but
short time after he was found dressing
an ortolon for himself. A Jew days later
he died by his oan hands.

BEGINNING Poultry Keeping.

There continues IL be a very general dc
sire to engage in keeping poultry. The
business docs not require hard work, is at
tractive, agreeable and interesting. Ital
so promises profit to those who engage in
it earnestly, and profit is the chiefinduce-
ment to the majority Of the novices who
desire to attemptit. A few general eau
tons are needed by those WHO would I'M
dcrtake this business.
Anovice cannot by the mere use of mon
ey, take up poultry keeping and make a
success of it. On the contrary he will b.
more than likely to lose all the money he
invests, if he supposes that the business
consists only in buying some fowls and
feed, and in selling eggs and chickens, by
simply permitting the hens to produce
eggs while he gathers them. Success
comes only to the person of long expert
ence who knows precisely what is to be
done to secure this result. 1t is best to be
gin with Il few fowls, making their keep
ing IA secondary business, until these can
be managed with success and profit. The
number may nc increased, and when the
business pays sufficiently their sole atten-
ton may be given it. To commence with
