Poultry and Pet stock.


Chicken LIce-Sow is the time to look
for chicken lice, as they breed very fast dur
ing warm weather, especially when they sre
confined 10 small quarters. TO not be afraid
TO Use air slacsed lime in your houses and
nests. and whitewssh on the walls and
percbes; so sprinkle some insect powder
on your setting hens and IN the nest.
Egg Food.-While wheat is one of the b ST
feeds for producing eggs, 1t is of little value
for fattening purposes compared with corn,
as corn contains great deal of fatty or oily
substance which puts the flesh on fowls in a
very short time. Pure water is also "A very
essential item To the health OF fowls, or, If
you have milk to spsre, that Is better still, as
IL not only moistens the food, but also CON
alton OF the egg.
Geese Nating-Unlike most of our feath-
cred stock, Geese are wont to mate, usually.
with only one OF the opposite Sex. Each gan
der is ready and willing to bestow all OF his
attentions upon one goose, and she in return
seeks no conquests among others. But this
rule hss just exceptions enough to prove Its
s rength, and now and then a case is found
when gsnder divides bls time between two
geese, or q goose secures attention from two
gsnd-rs. Tnis is all true where there is a
flock OF even pairs, but IL you keep only one
gander and two or three geese they will make
q virtue of Necessity and band together.
Guinea Hens-If a man can I'LL his ears
with cotton or move out on the prairie where
he has no neighbors. II will pay to keep a
few Guinea hens. They lay more eggs than
the common fowl. II is also claimed that
one of them will keep one-half an acre of
potatoes Gear OF beetles, ETC., and at the same
time answer the purpose of a barometer in
predicting the changes In the weather. IL
their merits balance their music, get some
eggs and hatch out some; they are good eat
ing and very pretty. Don't buy old bids I'm.
less you want to hunt the neighborhoOd
high and low for them every evening. They
can run.
0Goslings-Young goslinss, like young
ducks, require but very little food until they
are q week or ten days old, and then you
need not be sparing of the corn meal dough.
which may be mixed like that for chickens
with perhaps a very little salt in II. when
they get old enough to pick grass they re-
Quire very little feeding. Turn them out to
pasture, give them shelter from storms, for
strange as II may seem they are easily
drowned until their feathers are grown.
Very early goslings may be picked over in
the fall before fattening for Christmas. Those
kept over winter should not be stinted, but
fed.grain regularly.
