Village Poultry Societies.

Why not st. JOhnsbury is large
enough to sustain Il poultry society in
good shape. Lyndon, with its three
villages, could support three, and sue
ceed too. Every village in the coun-
ty should have one, and have yearly
shows in some hall. A well managed
poultry show, in the largest hall in St.
JOhnsbury, where birds of home breed
ing could he shown, would be crowded
for a week, at 10 cents admission, and
the same is true of every village in the
county.
The good arising from such a socie-
tv would he great in stimulating the
women and young people to engage,
IN IA small way, in a pleasant and prof
table business, and would infuse into
the minds Of the farmers some ideas
on breeding animals, that would, by
degrees, change their mode of bust
ness, and fill our county with well bred
fowls. that would repay the labor and
expense OF their keeping.
In England such societies are not at
all rare, and strange to say, the clergy
usually are active members and sue
cessful breeders, not only of birds of
all kinds, but also of dogs, rabbits and
the like, and how can a pastor improve
the minds of his flock better and faster
than In helping them improve their
flOcks and herds Let us think upon
this matter.

We hear great deal about the
"dairy belt" but curiously enough
Vermont is lift out, so is Pennsylva-
mia, which in point of number Of cows
stan,fs next to New York, also Ohio,
which ranks next to Iowa, likewise
Indiana, which exceeds Minnesota in
cows, and Michigan, which has cow
now and then. The supposition that
there is a dairy belt in the United

Importance of Securing Pure Breeding

BE careful that You don't make a
mistake, and use poor or unsuitable
animals as breeders. The pure Meri-
no sheep has from forty to forty -eight
thousand tibrss of wool to the square
inch. The twentieth cross of pure
Merino ram upon Il coarse wool race
had no more than twenty five thousand
iibres to the inch. This fact shows
very forcibly how long it takes to re-
move the effects of one cross, for in

reduce the tineneSs of staple nearly

Exported Apples.

The foreign trade in apples is nearly
at a close for this season, and shippers
move cautiously, owing to recent I'M
favorable reports from abroad. Many
late shipments arrived in Liverpool in
bad condition, average fruit selling at
about 80 per barrel, netting only 81 in
Boston. In carload lots Baldwins in
prime shipping condition are selling
in Boston at 1925. In small lots good
apples command 1915 to g.: per bar

ern demand for Northern apples, which
may afford better outlet for surplus
fruit than the export trade. Baltimore
and Philadelphia dealers are buying
apples in this market in considerable

Grain Feed Produces the Best Manure.

Grain Feed Produces the Best Manure.
The manure made from stock that is
fed IN part with grain is much richer
in fertilizing properties than when
none is fed, and when this manure is
applied to the soil better results are
obtained, and consequently larger pro-
fits are obtained from the crops raised.
From my own experience, | am sat
listed that the judiciOus feeding of
grain to our farm stock furnishes one
of our most profitable and cheapest
sources of obtaining fertilizing mate
rial 10 enrich our impoverished and
needy soils. The high price of com
mercial fertilizers. and the uncertainty
of obtaining the desired results from
the use of them, has prevented many
from investing therein. There is, how
ever, no uncertainty in the use of rich
stable manure as to the expected re-
suits while it can be produced ut a
cost within the means of everyone I'M
der favorable circumstances.
In my experience in fattcuing cattle
and sheep through the winter, | have
never failed of receiving in cash the
value OF the animals when | commence
ed feeding, the cost of the grain and
meal fed, and IN some years IA part, at
least, of the value of the hay fed to
them leaving the rich and valuable
manure for the labor of taking care OF
the cattle. This manure, " hen applied
to the land, produced much larger
crops, and its lasting effects in the soil
were noticeable several years longer
than where manure of an ordinary
quality was used. - &c. +. Alvord.
