ONE of the most important matters
for beginners in poultry-keeping is to
know that a good laying hen is not a
market fowl. A plump. fat hen will
lay but very few eggs, while a hen that
lays regularly does not readily become
fat, as she cannot produce eggs and
carcass at the same time. Do not
keep the laying hens and fat hens to-

FARM NOTES

FEW farmers give that attention to
their horses feet that they should give.
Most men rub and curry well enough,
perhaps, and many take great pride
and plenty of time in smoothing the
horses hide; but seldom Is it that they
think Of that most Indispensable part,
the horses feet, and stop to give them
that little attention and inspection that
is almost daily necessary.
The feet of the horse require as much
attention as the body, and some horses
feet much more. Without sound feet,
the horses are not of much service for
labor. A hores's feet may become IN.
sound by having to stand in a filthy
stable. The floor and bedding of the
stable should always be dry, and the
manure that Is caked under the feet
every morning should be carefully re-
moved by the groom. AS often as
necessary, the foot should be pared, and
the frog examined as to s%oundness and
hardness. A little alum water and
brine should be kept at hand, and
the frog of the foot mopped with it
once a week to keep the frog sound and
hard. a soft frog causes the animal
to get famed very easily, and so he
cannot travel or work well.
Sometimes stones or other hard sub.
stances get fastened in the foot, and If
1t is not removed auseS lameness. Cop
peras thrown over the manure of the
stable to destroy smell, will tend to keep
the hoof sound. 1t is well to sprinkle
it over the stable frequently, If for no
other purpose to cure the unpleasant
smell that often attaches to the feet of
the horse; plaster will have the same
effect, and is very useful to prevent
the loss of ammonia from the manure.
Is RYE EXHAUSTIvEp-Many far
mers believe that rye is much more ex-
haustive than wheat. 1t a be and
usually IS grown on poorer soil than the
latter crop; and not only in manuring,
but in preparation of the land, it is apt
therefore TO be neglected. Rye has a
greater bulk of straw than wheat; but
this bulk is chiefly carbon and derived
from the air. The broad leaves Of rye
cover the surface better than the wheat
plant does, and this protection possibly
serves some of the purposes Of manur-
ing. Where rye is grown in succession
it takes a long time to run down good
soil; but once change to wheat and a
single crop will make another crop i'm
possible without manure or a course of
seeding with grass aud clover.
Although It's leaf is bulky, the rye
crop is gotten off one or two weeks
earlier than wheat can be, thus reliev-
ing the grass and clover SEEDING Of the
double draught OF roots on the water
supply in the soil. After any grain ia
cut clover grows more rapidly than be-
fore, and rye is always cut earlier
than any other grain.
