MANAGEMENT OF YOUNG CHICKS

The disorders to which young chicks are
the growth or from weakness, and diseases
that are hereditary. The evil practice OF
close breeding does not affect much the first
few weeks of the chick life, but manifests
itself later, many times to grievous extent
| believe that leg weakness and crop dis
eases are in great measure the effect of
close breeding. That it affects size at the
expense of uniformity, must readily be ad-
mitted. Another thing which believe. also
is that chicks hatched from eggs which have
been laid by well-kept, strong hens, mated
with Vigorous thrifty cock, make better
and more uniform chicks, and are more easi-
ly reared. This is most important thing,
as it is the foundation. This is not all,
although great point. Food must be Civ
en- literally, and, more than all, the best of
care.
The young chicks should remain Oh the
nest until twenty-four hours from the shell.
They should never be given any sour TODD,
but should have sweet milk or pure water,
with eggs boiled hard and chopped fine,
stiff cnstard, bread or cracker crumbs, until
four CT five days Old Then they may be
given cracked corn or buclswheat, but not
wholly. Wean them from their infant food
by degrees, so that they may not get stunt
ed or be liable to hard crop or diarrhea. If
they are kept up in steady growth all the
time, disease is warded off and the chicks
are soon beyond its reach. If everyone
realized the danger of thus stunting chicks
in the early stages of growth, think tney
would endeavor to avoid it. There are too
many that 60 on doing the same thing over
year after year with the like result,and never
learn the true course 1t is from such per-
sons that we often hear the statement that
poultry does not pay. ..-..-z
Among the diseases that are hereditary
may be reckoned roup, one of the most try
ing disorders that we have TO deal with.
Although not contagious. it is handed down
from generation to generation. After once
seated believe there Is no cure, although
the fowl may live a very long time. In
breeding, all such fowls OF either sex should
be avoided. If the chicks are of good breed

THE GRAIN OF WHEAT,

Even in the hurry of harvest it will be
well to pause moment to consider the
structure OF a grain of wheat 1t is seldom.
however, that we do stop from our work to
| think of the material we are handling.
Rather is the golden grain treated as we
would sand or gravel, merely with a thought
| of its market value. But the kernel of wheat
is an interesting study. A gram of sound,
| ripe wheat, in itself. is a small thing; but let
us examine it and see what it contains. In
form it is nearly egg-shaped, with longi-
tudinal groove on one side; if we sever it
horizontally the sections are heart-shaped.
The outside layer or cuticle is mainly COM
posed of silex-the mineral base of sand
which is rendered soluble by potash in the
soil, and is carried by the little veins OF the
wheat plant and deposited with the oodv
tissue. The bran consists, first OF the epi-
carp or outer coat of longitudinal cells; next
the mesocarp or inner coat of longitudinal
cells; and the endocarp or the coat of trans
verse cells This triple coat, while indigest-
ible to m"n,yet highly relished and valuable
as cattle food, is perfectly adapted by nature
for the reproduction of the plant, perform
ing the function of circulation for the seed.
without which it could not develop a new
plant, or even germinate. At the upper end
of the kernal is seen an appendage, consist
ing of minute tiiments, or hairs, that are
absorbants OF moisture in the earth, and
which convey it to the outer coats and thus
perform an important office in aiding germi-
nation. '+ @*.'A
Returning now to the coats of the grain,
there is the episperm, or outer seed coat and
the tegmen. or inner seed coat, which con
tain q substance called cerealine Next is
the perisperm-a single layer of large cells
filled with gluten and nitrogenous products
the most nutritious portion of the grain.
Pure gluten is for the most part. composed
of proteine, a substance which forms the ba-
sis of the nitrogenous Compounds albumem,
tibrin, and caseine, besides sugar, gum and
Soluble albumen. Gluten is not, however,
limited entirely to this layer as it is found
distributed through the interior OF the berry,
as well as in the bran. The endosperm, or
large cells, which form the central portion
of the berry, consist mainly of starch in
minute granules.
The phosphates of soda, lime, and mag
nesia are found about the centre OF the kerr
mel, where the outer layer turns into the
berry, forming an inner heart-shaped sec
tion. These are the bone and brain making
elements of wheat, and the greater the guam
tity that can be obtained or preserved in the
reduction of the grain the more valuable is
the -four. ...... -.-....=-..
The Chit, germ, or embryo is seen near
the large end of the kernel and in the crease.
1t is rich in gluten, and contains also starchy
oil, etc. Over the germ is thin scale-like
pellicle, easily removed with the thumb nail
revealing the little germ containing oil be-
meath.

To HAVE tomatoes early is the great aim
of every ambitious gardener, and to attain
this desirable object many suppose they
must set out their plants as soon as their
ground is ready. This is in some respects
correct, but the ground is not, ready or fit
for tomatoes as early as for cabbage and let
tuce. The latter are nearly hardy, while
the tomato requires tropical climate, which
it cannot find here much before the first of
