Our stock has not been fed any this
winter, and still our COWS are fat
enough for beef. This has been a very
mild winter here. In December we
had some cold weather, just enough to
save our pork, since that time it has
been like spring. 1t is a beautiful
sight to see the thousands of young
lambs playing on the plains. Our
neighbor just across the road, has three
or four thousand sheep kept fat all the
winter.
/ was down at MERGED sometime ago,
while there, took peep into grain
warehouse. Your brother took me in
and introduced me to the crop. The
house holds 10000 tons, and at time
it had in it 10000 tons of grain. 1t is
$50 feet long, 60 feet wide and 80 feet
high. Your brother showed me his
stack. He had more grain after SELL
ing off to pay expenses, than ever saw
in McMinnville at one time all put
together. Wheat is still low. Those
who sold at threshing time did the
best. Some got $1,35 per 100 pounds,
higher than it has ever been since.

California has many charms at this
season of the year. The plains look
like vast flower garden, with its
sweet fragrance fairly pertaining the
atmosphere. l have seen the plains of
Texas, and they are pretty, but moth
ing to equal the beauty of this country.
But with all the beauty and fragrance
: it lacks one thing, the songs of birds.
There are but few songsters here. The
lark is about the only singer here.
We have the dove, but you know
what sort of a singer he is. Around
the foothills, they have greater vari-
ETY. of birds, Everything seems to
adapt itself to the country.
Up in Oregon we are told the mule
cared rabbit is white, or nearly so, on
account of the snowy country.
We find ourselves, to some extent,
using the language and tone of the
Mexican and Chinaman. For instance,
if a Chinaman comes to hire, you will
say, show much you likay day?" he
will say, II likay a dollar" This
population is one of the great draw
backs to this country. l like the Mex.
lean better than the Chinaman. There
are two classes. One the respectable,
they call the Spaniard; the lower
class, the "greasers."
We are beginning to need rain bad
ly. We have not had any since the
first of January. The spring rains are
late coming, Some wheat, first SOW
ing, will almost hide dog, 1t seems
rather strange to see it stated in the
STANDARD, that you are short of feed.
The idea of the people of Warren
county having to buy corn and hay
from the West is out of the question,
especially when it is 50 plentiful here.

POULTRY AND EGGS.

The poultry business in the United
States has become immense, and in
many States very profitable. 1t is
estimated that 100000 eggs are
daily consumed in the United States,
which amounts in value, to $4,000.
Not all of this vast quantity consumed
by the people are produced at home.
Large quantities are imported from
Canada and other countries. They
should all be produced at home.
Among the States best adapted to
the production of poultry and eggs,
Tennessee stands at the head. The
climate and soil are peculiarly well
adapted to their successful production.
While it is too warm in the South
err and too cold in the Northern and
Northwestern States during many
months of the year, the temperature in
Tennessee is seldom too hot or too
cold to produce eggs. By the aid Of
suitably constructed poultry houses, it
would hardly ever get too cold for the
production of eggs. Poultry TOOLS be-
coming an important item of Tennes-
sees products. We have o good de-
mand every year, both in the South
and East. = All we can produce will
likely find ready sale as has long been
the case.
Another advantage, the poultry and
egg business can generally be carried
on without much additional expense.
Generally the farmers good wife and
daughters can manage the poultry
without interfering with the regular
farm labor. In this work, however,
they should be encouraged with suita-
BILE facilities for carrying on the busi-
ness successfully.
Another advantage, the profits come
in at all times of the year-when the
money is needed, and furnishes the
wife with money to make her needful
purchases. 1t would be well to en-
courage the increased production of
these articles of healthy and nutricious
food, at least to such an extent as to
supply the home demand. The busi~
ness is profitable now in Tennessee,
but with our natural advantages it may
be made much more so.

Farm Wisdom.

1t is almost wicked to kill the heifer
calves of finely bred and frstclass but.
ter cows.
Where milk is used plenteously,
the children grow into robust men and
women.
Little lambs should not be allowed
to get least wet, until the weather has
become warm and they have attained
some size and age.
The best farmers make themselves
acquainted with the requirments of
their soil, and supply whatever partlcr
ular elements that are wanting.
1t has seemed almost impossible that
wool should be lower than it has been,
yet Boston advices report further
decline of one cent per pound.
Old seeds left over from last year
are often as good as fresh ones but
must be tested for vitality. So ought
all seeds, whether fresh or not.
Permanent pastures, especially on
steep lands, are absolutely necessary
to the highest success in stock raising,
and to attain the highest fertility of the
soil.
Damp and mouldy cellers should
now be thoroughly cleaned out and
sprinkled with caustic air Stacked lime
to purify and relieve them of noxious
odors.
No truly wise man will place his
dependence upon one venture or one
investment; neither will the wise
farmer depend wholly on one kind of
stock or one crop.
Mutton, lambs and wool-a good
combination made profitable II properly
managed but more so still if they
are all produced to together,
1t is far-sighted farmer who keeps
sufficient stock to manufacture his
grain and feed into meat, to wool,
dairy product and manure, so increase
the fertility of soil.

should be attached to the brood COOP
SO to keep the chicks under complete
control.
Rapid growth can be secured by
plenty of good feed, and one which
will certainly do this, and which is
easily obtained and prepared, to he fed
after the chicks are three weeks old,
is made of we'll scalded cornmeal
thickened to dry, hard dough with
bran, to be fed twice in the forenoon.
then later in the day some wheat, and
at night cracked or whole corn, as
their size and age may demand. In
the scalded meal and bran we stir
about pint Of clean sand to pailful
OF the feed. For young chicks we stir
in ground oyster.shell, and once a
week we add little sulphur, say
one tablespoonful to eight quarts
of the feed. A good grass run is
always disirable, and should be highly
priced by those who can command it,
as it saves labor; still, a varied diet
and green food can be substituted in
runs, where grass is not at hand, which
obviates the necessity of such run.
Very young turkeys die from like
causes, and many breeders have aban-
doned the rearing of these valuable
fowls fer this reason, but ifthey would
control them as above stated the losses
would be decreased. The habits of
turkeys couse them to range out over
the fields, through meadows and pas
lures, and the result is one by one the
little ones fall by the wayside to rise
no more, and this is why turkey
which roams through the underbrush
and woods brings out larger broods
than one which takes to the pastures
and meadows.
There is also another trouble which
should be guarded against at the be-
ginning of the season, and that is 'scalv
legs" fla setting hen has these legs,
she should not be placed on the eggs,
since it is contagious and she will infect
her young chicks, and their legs will
be ruined before they are four months
old, if not prevented. We hear people
remark that this is hereditary disease,
which is Incorrect; contact with filth,
long continued, and with fowls that are
diseased is the cause.
