Rearing Broller. for Market.

The system of rearing broilers for market. employed by George B. Stapp, of Hope. Ind. presents enough inter- esting as well as useful features to at tract attention, and has recently been described and illustrated as follows. in American Poultry Journal:
 The building is 72 feet long and 12 feet wide. ordinary drop siding" being used in it's construction. The remarkable fea- ture of the system is the long furnace which extends the full length of the building. and is arranged to warm the different pens in such a manner as to make the ordinary brooder entirely un- necessary. This furnace is fired at one end as shown in the sketch. Along the top, ordinary tiles are arranged side by side, for warming the air on the principle sometimes utilized in greenhouses. The furnace and the floors of the pens are covered with cement.
 The incubator house, which is an aux Hilary to this house. is built on exactly the same plan. but is only twenty feet long, The floors of both houses are GOV cred with straw chaif to the depth of two inches. Ample ventilation is provided.
 For the first three weeks of their lives the chicks are kept in the incubator house where the temperature is 65 to 70 degs.

Cattle ShipmentS.

A special to the Globe-Democrat says: "The shipment of range cattle from New Mexico and Arizona for the past ten days amounted to $40 cars, making total for the month of May of 9O5 cars from the ranges in these two territories, probably the largest shipment made ill the last six years. Prices on range stock for the past few years have not been remunerative, and all stOckman who were in financial condition to hold their increase of stock have done so, until the vast ranges in these territories have become overstocked, and it is undoubtedly part compulsion, as well as slight advance in the market price that has let! to the eastward movement of graz ing cattle. At rough estimate 30,- 600 head have let their native ranges and will &e thrown upon the market the coming fall"

HOUSE FOR REARING BRourRs.

at six feet from the furnace They are then removed to the brooder house, and placed in the room nearest the firebox of the furnace. where the temperature is the warmest (65 degs.) and at the end of each succeeding three weeks they are moved one room further away from the warm end of the building. The temper ature in the eighth Qast) room is , or 6 dcgs. lower than near the fire box. Thus the chicks fresh from the incubator are given the warmest quarters. and by the time they have reached the further end of the brooder house they are of market able size, and a succession of hatches is nicely accommodated. No other warmth is needed than that furnished by the long furnace. The chicks sleep upon the chaff without any covering. On a very cold morning they may be found scattered along the side of their room next the furnace. but as the temperature is uni form all along the furnace and the cement floor is also warm for some distance they never huddle together. The advantages of this system over the common brooder are freedom from crowding and the ab- solute security against loss in case the source of heat should from any cause be disarranged.
 With these essential principles thus fully provided for. any good system of feeding will make broiler rearing on a large scale a success. MT. Stapp's bill of fare is: Boiled rice the first three days. rice and wheat cooked together for the next ten; after which. or as soon as they will eat it. comes wheat and cracked corn The first few days they are fed four to six times day; after that, three times regularly. For variety they have the usual bran and meal mush. seasoned with Gutie cayenne pepper: also meat. cooked or raw. three times week. Their green food is chopped onions and head of cabbage to pick at. Sloppy feed is avoided and no water is given them un- til eight or ten days old. No sand is sup. piled until they begin to eat dry grain.

Cliff Dweuers Discovered.

A special from Deming, N. NJ, says: "Lieut. schwatka arrived here to day. His party has been successful beyond all expectations in their explorations, and especially in southern Chihuahua Here living cliff and cave dwellers were found in great abundance, wild as any of the Mexican tribes from Cor tez's conquest. The adobes they live in are exactly the same as the old, abandoned cliff dwellings of Arizona and New Mexico, about which there has been so much speculation and so much money spent III investigation. It was almost impossible to get neaF them, so wild and timid were they. upon the approach of white people they fly to their caves or cliffs by notched sticks placed against the face of the cliffs, if too steep, although they, can ascend vertical stone faces, if thera- are the slightest ere1ices for their tin- gers and toes. These cliff dwellers are sun worshipers, throwing their new born children out in the full rays of the sun the first day of their lives. and showing many other forms of de. votion to the great luminary. They are usually tall, lean and well formed,
 heir skin being very blackish-red, much nearer tie color of the negro
 han the copper-colored IndIan of the United States. Schwatka claims that nothing has heretofore been known about these people. except by the hali- Indian mountain Mexicans, and thinks his investigation will he of immense anthropological and archaeological value. He estimates the cave and cliff dwellers from 3,000 to l2,000 in numbers, armed only with bows, az rows and stone hatchets, and enough work for year or two for half a dog en expeditions. Schwatka pronounce es the scenery of the central Sierra Madres as stupendous beyond concep-
 ion. The grand barranca of the Uri- que equals, if not surpasses, the Grand
 Canyon of the Colorado, while the
 Arroyo of the Churches IS the most Beautiful sculptured rock of fifteen to } twenty miles in length probably in ex- istence."

Plant More Fruit.

Tie newly organized department of agriculture calls attention to the fact hat the people of this country import f2O, 100000 worth of fruit yearly. The kinds of fruit most largely imported are lemons, oranges, plums, prunes and raisins, and yet some ill-informed persons, both in California and Ari- zona talk of an oyerproduction in these fruits.
 The fact of the matter is that the frui. land of the world is by far too circumscribed 10 admit of overp~oduc ton or of even a sufficient supply. The population increases more rapid ly than does the fruit supply.

 his grand valley was utilized for the production of fruit, the market price would not be perceptibly changed.- Phenix Gazette.

Seeding with Oats

Oats are beyond question the best crop to seed grass and clover with. It is not so much the crop as the condition of the soil and the time that favors the success full growth of grass; oats secure the very best time, and if that crop is properly prepared for, it affords all the necessary conditions of soil If farmers would al ways SOW their grass and clover seed upon well manured soil, fresh plowed and well narrowed, we should hear no more of poor catches and half sown meadows, and if farmers would only give their oat crop a liberal quantity of manure. which it will repay with good interest, they can always get good catch of grass and clover on the land.- American Agriculturist.
