HOME, FARM AND RANCH.
Pure Bred Poultry.

The value of poultry has been I'M
derrated in times past, not only by
city people, but the farmers them
selves do not realize its Importance.
None but those who have given a
fair share of attention and care to the
breeding and management of poultry
know its real worth.
True it takes time to convince
skepticS of their errors, but we are
getting education slowly and the time
has come when there is no need OF
lauding the merits of thoroughbred
poultry No one who looks on the
scrubs of the barry ard and then on
flock of pure bred fowls, but can see
that there is beauty and utility in the
looks of the latter.
The breeding of poultry for market
has become one of the greatest indus
tries of the country and is steadily in
creasing every year.
There is no risk in raising poultry
comparatively; it is not subject to
huctuation; there is very little danger
of overproduction it is nicely bal
anced by division of labor, and it
is within the reach of the poorest
housekeeper.
Thirty years ago, there were but
very few breeds of recognized merit.
The common dung hill fowls held the
sway until replaced by improved fowls
and the value of these increased as
their merits became known until
their breeding has become leading
and profitable occupation, and vet,
great as it is in every town and city
in the United States. it is only in its
infancy.
Heretofore the business was looked
upon as a small thing, adapted only
for cripples or invalids, but now some
of our most eminent men are engaged
in this pursuit.
Without doubt there is no home in
dustry that is better suited to all
classes of society.

Not a Cent in the Treasury.

A Louisville merchant goes to New
York to lay in a stock of goods. He
first enters an English importing
house and prices a bale of coarse
wooden cloth, which is 81 per yard.
"But," says he, 81 bought this cloth
before the war at ST." "True," says
the Englishman; "but your govern
ment has put on a duty of 81 per
yard, and / have only added that to
the price," Our merchant pays for
the goods, and the importer puts 81
into his own pocket and the other into
the treasury. Now, this is the reve-
nue. and goes to support the govern
ment. He now crosses the street to
an American house and examines a
similar bale of domestic goods and
finds the price the same. "But how
is this? ?" says he; you pay no duty
yet sell as high as the Englishmani
True" says the salesman; you see
the foreign article fixes the price, and
we ask 81 because we can get it.
Our merchant pay the 81 yard, and
the manufacturer puts every dollar
into his own pocket and not a cent
into the treasury. Now, this is pro
lection.

Study Your Farm.

There is too much farming done ut
random. Failure frequently purSues
a man through life sor want Of clear
and undetermined conception of the
o ject that he ought to aim to accom-
pliSh. A forcible writer in the Iii
brary of useful knowledge urges
every farmer to consider the nature
of his farm; the quality, abundance,
or the deficiency of his pasturage; the
character of the soil: the year when
he will have jplenty or deficiency
of food; the locality of his farm; the
market to which he has access, and
the produce which can be disposed Of
there with the greatest profit. These
things when well studied and decided
will point him to the breed Of stock
he should raise, and the kind of
grains or grasses he should
cultivate. The man of more means
and more ambitious aims may take in
more extensive views, and look Scien-
tifically to the question Of improve
ment of stock. But the farmer with
limited means and less ambition,
with whom we have most to do, does
not feel like running any risks, or en-
gazing in any doubtful enterprises.
Such regard their cattle as valuable
part of their yearly income, and that
source of revenue cannot be disturbed
by interrupting the regular routine of
business. And yet by careful study
this necessary inflow can be kept up,
and the income of his farm greatly in
creased without much enlarged eX-
pense, while the annual outlay other
wise may be leSsened, and labor light
ened. Rich or poor, humble or am
bilious, he ought to study closely
what will best suit his farm, examin-
ing closely the points and qualities of
his own cattle and those of his neigh
bors. If he determines dairying is
best for him, he must ex-
anime the question of quantity
the production of butter and cheese;
the time that the cows continue to
milk; the character of the breed for
gentleness. their predisposition to dis
ease, and the natural tendency to turn
nutriment to milk; the ease with
which she is fattened and value as a
beef when she is given up as mixer;
the proportion of food requisite to
keep them in full milk or to fatten
when dry. If grazing is decided to be
the main business, then consider the
kind of stock which the farm will best
be suited for, the kind Of meat most
IN demand at the greatest profit in his
neighborhood. the early maturity, the
quickness of fattening at any age the
quality of the meat; the parts on
which the flesh and fat are principally
laid, and last of all, the hardihood and
adaptation to the climate and soil
When a farmer wisely settles all OF
these questions, he will find he has
but little time to loiter about neigh
boring street corners.-Portland, (Ore.
gon,) North w estern Farmer.
