Points About Raising Turkeys.
Farm and Homp

The one thing that has paid the past year is
turkeys. They had quick sale at Thanksgiv-
ing for 20 cents pound and at Christmas for 81
to 30 cents, and the farmers could have had %
cents at the last season if they had known as
much about the market three days before Christ
mas as they did three days after. And this price
is not exceptional. The average for good New
England turkeys for the last twenty years, be-
lieve, will exceed Is cents pound, if it does not
reach 20 cents.
If q famer has reasonable "luck'-that is, if he
has as as good luck as generally comes of irtelli-
gent care--he can make !, 900 pounds of turkey
meat for 800 easy, and sell the same for $500,
or, putting it better: flock of 800 turkeys will
not cost him in grain fed out over $T5. if
they are killed before Thanksgiving and they
ought to average twelve pounds each, which
makes l,200 pounds in all, and to sell at twenty
cents pound, or $240. | have raised turkeys
for many years, most years with fair success,
and whatever the success, they have always
been the best-paying production of the farm.
This is my plan: Keep over ten hens and a
tom; the hens the best birds in the fall flock;
part old and part young Old hens of good
habits are to be preferred. Feed lightly all
winter. About March l increase the feed and
provide places for their nests near the house.
When they begin to lay be careful that the eggs
do not get chilled Do all you can to get your
turkeys to setting as early as possible. Early
turkeys are twice as likely to live as late ones
When the young come off put them in little
board pens in warm place for a week or
more, feeding them SIX or eight times day
with coarse meal and chopped hard-boiled
eggs, mixed with water or, what is better, sour
milk. As soon as they are strong enough give
them pasture range at first, then turn them
into meadow; but, by all meaus, feed them at
noon, and to this end drive them up to the house
This viii get them accustomed TO coming up for
their dinner and so they will not go far away
from home See that they are always fully fed
and safely housed at night, so that foxes and
skunks will not and cannot destroy them
Make it matter of thought to see that your
September and kill for Thanksgiving and you
will be able to put few dollars in some near
savings bank, which you may honestly call pay
for your care and work and profit on the grain
fed This business cannot be overdone, and
advise farmers to put few dollars into tur-
keys for next season lif they can find them) at

PERU's RAILROAD BUILDER.
The Debt that Henry Meiggs Repaid Ate
Forty Years Had Passed.


Forty Years Had Passed.
New York Sun.
"The story of Henry Meiggs" said one of his
old acquaintance the other day, lis almost
pathetic in that part Of it where in his old age
he sought to repair the errors of his youth. espe-
cially in reference TO his financial obligations
One day a young Long Islander, the son of
wealthy parents, was buying a Christmas pres
ent for his mother at Tiffany's, when he saw a
superb silver set, the pieces of which bore the
monogram H. NJ He learned that it had been
made at great cost for the Peruvian railroad
contractor. He told at home of the magnifcence
of the silver set and, as he presented his mother
with the single piece of silver which he had pur-
chased, said that he hoped to be able some day
to buy her as fine a set as that ordered by Henry
Meiggs.
eff Meiggs will pay me what he owes me, ,
said the father, you could do it. ! hold 81, 800
of his notes dated in 1882. l bought a quantity
of lumber for him down the Hudson river, and
he failed to pay me except in these notes, and
they proved worthless. We intimate
friends until this transaction. never told any
one of these notes, because did not want to
further expose one who had been my friend.
'The young man, without his fathers knowl-
edge, got hold of the notes. and wrote a letter
calculated to appeal to Henry Meiggs in its
reference to the friendship of his early life
Then he sent the letter, with the notes inclosed,
through Duncan. Sherman & Co, to Meiggs In
response there came from the contractor a man
ly and affectonate letter inclosng draft for
$4,000, being the principal and interest of the
debt
"The father bought for his wife with the
money duplicate of Henry Meiges's silver
service, and every Sunday night this is used in
memory of the railroad king The father and
his son sent joint letter to Mr.. Meggs relating
how they had disposed of the money, and he
wrote back asking for leave to reimburse them
for the present. but this declined.
when his son came to America he was in
Structed bV his father to look up the Long Island
acquaintance, and a warm friendship followed
between the sons of the contractor and his old
time friend, whose loan had been repaid after
forty years.

Beets for Stock.
Rural Spirit.

AS the wild range gives out other food must
be substituted. AS land advances the farmer
should economic by introducing such crops as
will grow the most food One of good land
will grow 5000 pounds of timothy or some other
grass crops. The same amount of land will
grow 5000 pounds of Orange Globe mangels,
or sometimes called English beef beets. Now,
the question comes up to which will pay
best, provided suitable soil is at hand to grow
the beetS. This, however, is not the only adj
vantage Of the beet crop, for cattle will do bet
ter when fed hay and beets than when fed on
hay alone. Then, again, hogs can be growntwith
great success on beets, while they cannot on hay.
What do you know about growing beetsp has
already passed through the mind of the reader
To which we reply that we know enough to
most emphatcally say that we regard the
production of the beet referred to as the most
profitable crop that can be raised east of the
Cascades 1--WE don't know so much about it west
of the mountains, but we believe they can be
grown on any good soil with much profit
While farming N Union county raised the
beef beet with much success, and found it a
most excellent winter food for cattle and mich
cows as well as for stock hogs. These beets are
no more nutritious than the long mangel, but
they are much easier grown. They grow mostly
on the top of the ground and are therefore easily
gathered. They keep fully as well, and we are
told that they are excellent for sheep If the
soil is free from weeds they may be sown broad
cast and a good crop raised, but not good as
can be raised on the same soil by drilling
and cultivating The seed should be sown
from the middle of May to the middle of
June, owing to the season, and sufficient
seed to warrant good stand. Nearly every beet
seed, it viii be borne in mind, produces more
than one plant. This necessitates thinning, but
they may be allowed to grow until the beet is
large enough for table use before the thinning,
at which time the tops are well grown, and the
labor of thus thinning not only cultivates the
SOIL but is paid for by the food there is in the
little beets, and the tops can be thrown either to
the cows or pigs. One of the greatest advantages
of this species of beet is that it produces but a
small top, so small, indeed, that by allowing the
beets to remain twelve to twenty-four hours
after being pulled the tops will become so dry
that most Of the leaves will break off in handling
The beets can either be stacked and covered over
with dirt to keep from freezing, or put in the
cellar. No one who has an acre of good, fair
land need be afraid to undertake the growing of
these beets
