The young of wild species of birds
are fed by their parents chiefly on ami
nal food even when they are scod-eat-
ers when mature. They are thus forced
that the period of their hclpcssness
may be shortened. Poultry men can

Not one farmer in hundred has
enough large and small fruit on his
place-not even enough to supply the
wants of his one family. But It is safe
to say that they who have an abund-
anco appreciate its worth, and are both
healthier and happier by its use.-Mon-

The Massachusetts Ploughman points
attention to the fact that many old
mares are poor mixers, and, for the
colts sake, every farmer ought to know
how to treat his mare so as to increase
her flow of milk. The same agencies
which will produce a good flow in n
COW will also in mare.
--Carelcssness must 90 out and busi-
ness sense must come in to make poultry
management successful. This Is cspe-
cially true where poultry is made spe-
cialty. Nevertheless fifty to one hun
dred fowls may be kept on every farm
with little special care besides providing
good, clean, comfortable quarters.

breakfast-table. Take one pint of we'll
boiled rice, half pint of flour, the yolks
OF four eggs. two spoonfuls of melted
butter, one pint of milk, little salt and
a large spoonful of sugar. Beat all
these ingredients till very smooth, and
then add the beaten whites of the four
eggs. Bake in shallow pans and serve
hot.-BoSton Badget.
The best of roots for the horse in
winter is the carrot. Enough should be
provided to give two or three messes
week, though where they are plenty
still better plan is to feed some every
day with oats or other grain, the ration
OF which may be proportionatcly dimin-
ished. TO buy them they are generally
as dear as oats, but may be grown for
much less cost, n good crop OF carrots
yielding two hundred to six hundred or
eight hundred bushels per acre, accord
ing as the small or large varieties are
grown.-M y Herald
The raising of turnip and cabbage
seed has proved very profitable, and
added materially to the income of the
farmers on the east end of Long Island.
One farmer near Mattituck is said to
have cleared 81, 200 from cabbage seed
alone. Another made 1920 from tur-
nip seed raised OH small plat. The
main crops in that section are cauli-
flowers, cabbages and potatoes, and the
raising of seed has heretofore been SUBJ
sidiary 10 these crops, but it has prGTed
so profitable that many farmers have
gone into it largely.-1roy Times.
