Salt IN the Ration for Poultry.

Salt IN the Ration for Poultry.
There is prevalent notion that salt
causes the feathers Of fowls, or prehaps
of the feathered tribes in general, to fall
out. This, we believe, is we'll founded.
Certainly, excess of this condiment
should be avoided. There appears to
be some connection between salt and
feathers. Feather eating fowls are often
cured of the tendency by adding salt to
their food, and small quantity of salt
in the ration promotes, or is supposed
to promote, the new crap of feathers at
moulting time. This supposed effect
may be simply the loosening of the old
feathers. The result, as promotive of
moulting, would be the same. Salt IS a
very important ingredient in the ration
of pigeons. and where these birds are
confined without it, they are never 50
thrifty. 1t is natural then, to conclude,
that it is valuable in the food of other
birds. and especially for barn-door fowls.
The earlier old fowls are out of their
moult and in full pumage the sooner
will they begin to lay, in the autumn.
Pullets usually begin 10 lay as soon as
they are completely plumed as adult
fowls. 1t is worth while, therefore, to
encourage moultiug in every way, CIV
ing them exercise, insect food, or fish
in their rations. with ground bone,
ground oyster she'll, and sound grain.
A tablespoonful of fine salt in the soft
feed, given daily to flock of twenty
hens, will be a fair allowance. Fowls
do not depend upon this for the salt
which their bodies aud feathers contain,
for either the material itself, or the ele-
ments of which it is composed, exist 70
greater or less extent in almost all the
food they eat and the water they drink;
aud what we do by giving them salt is
simply to increase the supply.-Ameri-

A Few Raspberry Notes.
RY A. NJ. PURDY.

From the American Rural Home.
Davidson's Thornless comes first
among the Black Caps, and with us
on this account, proves very profit
able, as we get 10 to Is cents quart
for the first two or three pickings.
II is not quite so productive or large
as others of the improved blacks.
but it's earliness offsets this. 1t
should be planted thickly in the rows
two to two and half feet apart and
kept we'll nipped back SO as to form
perfect hedge rows.
Tayler and Doolittle come next,
and were about the same in size
only that the first named holds out
large fruit to the last, and yields
heavier and larger. We believe were
we confined to but one black rasp
berry, it would be the Tyler. Its
yield is simply enormous, while its
bright coal black and its delicious
flavor and extreme hardness, make it
exceedingly desirable and valuable.
The Souhegan is so near like the Doc
little that there is no need of having
both.
The Ohio is the old Miami, and no
more seeding of the Doolittle than
is that old sort. Mr.. Van Duzen. of
Palmyra, grew this berry twenty to
twenty-five years ago, when we be-
came acquainted with it, and we then
had plants from him and afterwards
obtained the old Miami (not the Nc
Cormick or Mammoth Clustcr) from
OHIO, and they proved identical. Van
Duzen told us, years ago, that his
plants originally came from Ohio, and
he gave them the name "Ohio." They
were grown from his plantation by
his son at Newark, and they brought

ception of Gregg the best for evapo-
rating purposes.
Mammoth Cluster, or Mccormick.
This is a well known old sort. and
probably the best for table use Of all
the Black-Caps, except Seneca; very

so.

we have been looking for sort as large

sort. 1t is now (July l0th) ripening

the popularity of turning pinkish col

called Vanderbilt University; he de-
