The Care of Chickens.

Many young chickens are lost every
season for lack Of sufficient protection
from inclsment weather. \ hastily
constructed coop is provided without
other object. apparently, than to con-
fine the mother hen. Common forms
Of coops, such as the ''tent" and the
''barrel'' coops, are placed on the
ground regardless, Of distance to a
grass plot, and sticks are driven up in
front to form the Stats that keep the
hen inside aud provide means of in
gress and egress to the chicks. The
sun or the rain, as the weather chances
to send, beats down on these coops to
the serious injury and oftentimes loss
of the brood.
A shed, say six feet square, is reared
against wall or other support with a
southern exposure, and the coop put
under it. The coop made on plan
very common in France, and recon-
mended by Wright az one of the best
arrangements for both the mother hen
and the chicks, consists Of two com
partments separated by a partition Oh
bars, one compartment being closed in
front, the other fronted with bars like
the inside partition. Each set of bars
has sliding one to serve as a door
and the whole coop is tight and sound.
It has no bottom, but is placed direct.
ly on loose, dry earth an inch or Sc
deep. Each half Of the coop is about
two feet six inches square, and is
lighted from the top by small pane
of glass.
The advantage of such COOP and
shed is obvious; except in very ex-
IRENE weather no further shelter is re
quired, even at night. During the day
the hen is confined in the outer com,
partment, and at nisht she is placed
in the inner one With this, as with
every chicken coop, there should be a
grass plot in front of the shed, the
floor of which ought to be kept cover
ed with loose, dry dust or earth. I'm
der such a shed the chickens will
thrive we'll. 1t is, of course, needful
to lift the coop every day Or two long
enough to remove the tainted earth
underneath and make fresh floor OF
fresh earth.
In many yards it is not practicable
to have these protecting sheds. In
such cases the coops ought to be we'll
boarded and have their roofs covered
with felt or canvass. A grass run Is
exceedingly conducive to the health
/ and vigor of the chicks. 1t is also es-
|sential to have perfect cleanliness and
fresh water every day.-N Y. World.

Selecting the Seed.

Farmers are apt to neglect and con
slider unimportant the selection OF
seed for sowing or planting. But i
is highly important. Poor seed viii
produce poor crops, and weed seed
will grow if everything else is parched
with drought or drowned with water
All labor is lost if the seed is no
good. If onl V three stalks grow wher
four should and might, then it is
loss of % per cent. Order seed il
time to test it. Sow little in BIKE
of earth kept warm by the kitche,
fire, and see what proportion grows.
1t may be taken as a criterion of its
whole. Test every kind of SEED sowD
or planted. Especially, do so with
corn. Exchange seed with some one
whose soil differs from yours; it is of
ten beneficial. Buy seed of reliable
dealers. Be particularly careful with
timothy and clover. Weed seeds are
scattered abroad, and often farms are
infested with weeds whose seeds were
imported in the timothy or clover o!
the stores. Farmers must realize that
success depends on getting the best
products, not the most if they are
thereby of inferior quality, and tbs
first thing is to get good reliable seed.
1t is better to pay five dollars busheI
Tor good seed than to haye fou! seed
given you.
THE BEAN AND PEA WEEVILS.
1t is by no means an uncommon
thing to find seed beans and peas lit
orally alive about this time of year.
The inhabitant Of the bean is known
entomologically as Bruchus faba, and
of the pea as Bruchus pisi. They are
near relations, but while a single bean
may contain anywhere from one to a
dozen weevils, the pea has scarcely
ever more than single occupant
However, their mode of existence and
the injury they do are very similar :;
hence we will let the description OF
the bean weevil answer for both.
The beetle deposits her eggs on the
outside of the bean pod while it is
young and tender. When the grub
matches out, it begins to eat its way
into the young bean, and lives upon it,
or rather in it. They eat IA hole almost
through the bean up to the hull, thus
preparing for the future escape of the
weevil. Reaching the pups state, the
insect remains dormant until spring.
when it makes it exit, though not al
ways until after the bean is planted.
Thus it is that we often find the white
surface of the beans in bag or box
covered with the little blackish wee
wills.
Does the weevil injure the seed
beans and peas? Not necessarily, un-
less so much of the bean Or pea has
been eaten as to deprive the young
plant of the requisite nourishment.
But as this is apt to be the case, even
if the germ itself is not destroyed, the
young plant is likely to be weak and
spindling in growth We know OF no
really effectual remedy for the weevil,
only for neighbors to unite and guard
against planting any weevil eaten b ans
or peas. The insects are very lively,
and pay no attention to the space be-
tween neighboring gardens; they get
there.-AGRICoLA in Y. Y IndepsRd-
