Oleomargarine.

Instead of taxing an evil it ought to
be wiped out of existence. If that can
be done by taxation ali right. Other
wise the sy.tem of taxation should give
Mace to absolute prohibition. We be-
tlieve bogus butter to be an evil that
should not be permitted. 1t is vile
compound, dangerous, We believe, to
health and life. If that belief is we'll
founded. of course there can be no ques-
ton as to what should be done. Is 1t
we'll founded We have satisfied our
selves that it is by personal investiga-
ton. We found one of the best specl-
mems of oleomargarine that was ever
made to be alive with animalcula, and
filed with dirt, and what was believed
to be tape worm eggs. We have pub
lished the formulas for making bogus
butter. that have been patented, and
there has been enough poisonous ingre-
dent in them to warrant our conclu-
sions, and enough more that were utter
" disgusting to sicken anybody. We
published the evidence given upon the
subject before the legislative committee
in New York SO far as showed that the
acids used in the manufacture burned
flesh off the fingers and burned holes in
the boots of the workmen and recently
an Eastern butcher who sold fats to be
used for the manufacture Of eleomarga-
rine has said that these fats, or at least
a large portion of them, were utterly
unfit for OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES

this year gathered over 800 bushels OF

are grown. Raspberries and blackber-

"a splendid young orchard is bear

Baylor, who is assisted by ten pupils.

Manurlng Wheat.

Here are some simple direction from
the Prairie F"rmer for applying yard
manure for wheat which every practical
farmer will recognize as correct. 1t is
a very serious question whether large
norton of stable manure which is plow-
ed down as soon as spread is not an en-
tire loss. The young roots OF the wheat
never reach it in the fall, and the win.
ter and spring rains carry the greater
part of it's best constituents far down
into the ground beyond the reach of
any crop roots.
There is often, during the latter part
of the summer time, to haul out man.
ure that has accumulated while the i'm
portant work of cultivating and harvest
ing has been going on. 1t can be cart
ed out and spread upon the stubble land
and then plowed under. Or it may be
hauled after the soil has been plowed,
and worked into the surface by harrow
ing. Flowing the manure under, places
the greater part of it too deep in the
soil to be reached by the feeding roots
Of the plants, and the application fails
to benefit the first crop as it should.
By the time second blowing is given
much of the soluble part will have been
lost The natural course of the soluble
portions of manure is downward. If
applied upon the surface, the moisture
will draw it into the soil. To obtain
the greatest benefit in the shortest time,
it is best to draw out after the ground
has been plowed. Scatter direct from
the wagon as evenly as possible, and
then harrow thoroughly so as 70 work
into the soil. This leaves the manure
where the feeding roots of the plants
can readily reach it. Manure can nearly
always be applied to wheat proftably.
When there is a supply on hand it
should he hauled out and scattered as
practicable after the ground is plowed.

The Poultry Yard.
Poultry Pickings.

--@-o~
The chickens must be protected from
the sun.
Confined poultry should be kept con
stantly at work-"on the 60"
Poultry in orchards destroy insects
and keep trees in good condition.
No stock will derive more good from
sour milk than the growing focks.
Petroleum, it is said, will often cure
chicken cholera if given in time, A
table spoonful in pint Of meal, fed to
the hens, is sufficient.
Poultry keeping can be made an
auxiliary to other pursuits without in
fringing upon the time OF the keeper
and will bring in handsome return for
the food and care given them.
For scabby legs apply thoroughly a
mixture of lard and ker. sene oil in
equal parts, or lard with a little carbol.
l., acid added. The trouble is caused
by parasite and the object is to KILT.
Poultry ranks among the leading in
dustries of this country, and is more
permanently established and less subject
to fluctuations, and its capital is more
evenly divided through tie division of
labor than any other business in Amer
lea.
Poultry growing to be successful
must be conducted with great care and
attention. Fowls must have light, ven
tiation, warmth, pure water, dry floors
either of wood or earth, plenty ofroom,
protection from enemies, sound, whole
some food at regular times and must be
kept clear of vermin. No amount Of
ventilation will overcome the evil of

Writing of the disease known as
gapes, Stephen Beale, in the Country
Gentleman, says: "In some districts Of
England, where lime-kilns abound, it is
common thing to take children
troubled with whooping cough there.
Standing in the smoke arising from the
kilns, they are compelled to breathe it.
This dislodges the phlegm in the throat,
and they are enabled to get rid of it.
Except near lime kilns this cannot be
done to chickens, but fine Stacked lime
can be used either alone or mixed with
sulphur, two parts of the former to one
of the latter. The air is charged with
this fine powder, and the birds breath
ing it. cough. and thus get rid of the
worms, which are stupe6ed by the lime,
and do not retain so firm hold on the
windpipe."

A Great Establishment.

good state of cultivation, large part
Of it being in grass, corn, oats, &c

The Poultry Business.

AS to the profits and immensity of
the poultry interests, we will let Mr..
Hoyt's statement before the Bedford
Farmers Club tell about it. He says:
"The poultry product of this country,
chickens and eggs together, was for the
year 1885 $56O,000,0O0. Upon every
head of the American people there was
tax of $11 each to be paid over to
the raisers of the innocent barn-door
fowl; and yet this sum did not cover
the consumption of this excellent cul-
mary material-for we imported about
half as much as we raised. 1t seems
indeed, somewhat extraordinary that
we i'm ported 1880, 900 eggs from
China. Much is said nowadays in
this way of glori6cation of the great
ness of the dairy interest, and it is al
WAYS more or less active in demanding
favorable legislation, but its value is
less than half that of the chicken coop.
Indeed, the quiet old hen taking her
dust bath in the corner or clucking
musical encouragement and advice to
her small family about the barnyard, is
all the time organizing national wealth
on scale which absolutely belittles
the glory of the great cotton plantations;
and leaves the magnifcence of Mime
sofa and the wheat regions good
ways behind. Poultry and the poultry
products of 1885 were worth $3.50, 0OO,-
900 more than the cotton product OF
the same year. Let Chandelier get
upon the highest rail and flap his
wings, and raise his lusty voice, for
upon this theme he is entitled to crow.
In these figures it is probable we may
see the good results ola craze that the
small wits have laughed at good bit
the passion of that so called theoret-
ical farmer for improved kinds of
poultry, for Cochius, Brahmas, Ham
burgs, Black Spanish, Wyandottes, Ply
mouth Rocks, Andalusians and so on.
How the man of hard common sense
laughed at him! How he sneered with
his superior wisdom as the enthusiastic
fancier, who, if he seemed extravagant,
builded better than he knew, when he
gave an impulse to the production of an
element of wealth for which every part
of our country affords good field, but
which twenty years ago scarcely appear
ed in the statistics.
