Forcing Winter LAYING.

This can be done. and we win inform
''Reader'' of the .RaitfY World how it
may be done, to . certain extent. His
inquiry is two-fold. He asks III hens
can be made to lay in winter" and
''what shall weEdo to induce them to dis
count in cold weather?''
1t is q difficult thing to ''make young
hens lay, ordinarily. until they are
ready to perform this desirable duty in
the natural way. Nature creates the
! disposition, and in due course Of time af-
fords fowl the ability to discharge its
eggs. This follows upon the completion
of the formation and maturing of eggs
within the hen. And they cannot be
laid until they are fully formed and ma
tured.
To have laying hens in winter, the first
year of their lives, the pullets should be
Matched early in the previous spring.
Thus they grow to maturity by late fall.
and after moulting they will begin to lay,
frequently in November, or even in Oc-
tober. Leghorns will commence to lay
at five months old, and we have known
Brahmas and Cochins to begin laying at
six months.
Generally speaking, however, they do
not lay much till they are month or
two older. So, if your pullets are Matched
out, say in March or April, they will be
seven or eight months of age in Novem-
Der, and should then be ready to clay in
winter naturally, without forcing.
But they commonly do not get to lay
ing at this time, and the reason is that
they have not been properly fed with
this end in view. Where you find young
winter laying hens. you may be sure
they have been taken extra good care of,
from the shell upward. But older hens
may be put up to this work by artificial
feeding or by supplying them with high
ly stimulating or egg producing food for
the same purpose.
Thus: If we take flock of one and
two years old hens and pen them where
we can furnish them with animal and
grain food and the necessary condiments
which 90 to create egg-meat and shells
away from the ordinary fed poultry
we can quicken them in the laying dis
position, and they will commence to dis
charge their itters month or six weeks
earlier than they would have done had
they been left to take their chances
among the flock.
But this forcing is exhaustive. Nature
is overturned. It is not healthy way
for hens to lay, under this stimulating
"high pressure" And they soon lay
themselves out. We have known hens
thus treated to produce enormous
sized eggs frequently, and also many
soft-shelled ones, when being thus
pushed. They can be ''made to 1ay'' in
this way for a time. But it is brief
time only before they will ''play OUT I'M
der this fastening process.
We therefore advise those who would
have laying fowls in winter time to
procure pullets that they know are then
seven to eight months of age, of any
breed.
If they wish to bring their old hens
into laying at this period, they mustfeed
them high, in advance, keep them warm
and dry, and feed them with plenty of
animal food, wheat, buckwheat and egg
producing food for this purpose. And
so it will be for the flock thus forced-a
short life and a prolific one; but you may
thus have winter laying hens.-Poultry

The sheep is the cosmopolite among
domestic animals. With habitat ex-
tending from Nova Zembla to New Zea-
land, and following the lines of latitude
around the world, it accommodates itself
to every surrounding; here sweltering in
the heated atmosphere of the tropic PAM
pas, and there shivering before the crisp
blasts that fan the mountains brow;
whether in glebe or glen, in field or for
est, feeding on grain or grass, it is found
fitted to its surrounding conditions, and
to unfailingly mete to its owner in the
measure from which it has been supplied.
This conspicuous pliability of the sheep
has enabled breeders possessed of skill
and enterprise to produce varieties suited
not alone to the purposes of the pastoral
herdsman, but to the average farmer as
well. For the latter, whatever his con-
dition and locality, some variety may be
found from which he may confidently
anticipate the maximum profit for such
judicious care and reasonable sustenance
as he may accord them.
The crying need of American agricul-
ture to-day is more general incorpora-
ton of the sheep into the farming econ
omy. More prolific than horses or cat
tie, as well as more tractable. subsisting
on scantier heritage, and requiring
less supervision, it claims the addi-
tional advantage of ''paying for its rails
ing'' in annual instalments of market
able fleece pending its growth to matur-
ity. It is more readily transferred from
one ENCLOSURE to another, and is easily
restrained by fences that would prove
no barrier against the encroachments of
other farm stock. Its light tread and
love of repose warrant its access to fields
and pastures where the tramping of eat
tie and the tearing of hogs would not be
tolerated. 1t wastes less food in proper
ton to the quantity consumed, and will
hunt out and utilize much that would
otherwise be lost to the farmer. Yield
ing a return in both fleece and flesh. it
furnishes its owner with the double adj
vantage of catching good market for
his product, requiring less water, and
disposed to work for its food, it is with
out q peer when summer draught taxes
the farmers resources for enabling his
live stock to maintain an average of
thrift and flesh.
All that can be said in behalf of feed
ing live stock on the farm, as distin-
guished from the soil-impoverishing pol
icy of placing the raw grain and grass
on the market, will be found to apply
with double emphasis to the farm that
carries as part of its outfit one or more
sheep per acre. No animal returns
more fertility to the soil in proportion to
the amount exacted for its support, while
none equals it in the evenness with which
the droppings are distributed. Breeders

WINGED that their mistress would soon be
an inmate of a lunatic asylum when they
saw not one or two, but half dozen,
pale-faced cripples brought into the house
and placed in the elegant rooms that had
hitherto been devoted to the great and
honored among her guests. Nota thing
was allowed to be changed in these rooms.
Delicate ornaments, statuettes, pictures,
books, all remained as before, and under
the elegant counterpanes and blankets
lay wistful-eyed suffering children, who
almost forgot their pain in the beautiful
world where they found themselves.
Nurses cared for them, and in and out
moved Isadore Stafford, dressed in plain
black dress and white cap, not unlike a
Sister of Mercy. Every eye frightened
when she came in sight with her beauti-
full face, and as she passed from room to
room, smoothing pillow here, or patting
a cheek there, the little visitors, as she
called them, drew a long breath and be-
Geyed that they had already reached
heaven and an angel had ministered unto
them.

With long, kindly pressure of her hand
he said "Good night" and shutting the
door, left her alone. How the memories
crowded. They came in at every door
and hung about every picture and corner.
They sang in her heart and danced in
her eyes. They blotted out the present
and in its place painted pictures of her
school days. Beneath their power life
had suddenly become a beautiful thing
and every hour blessing.
