Nichols & Shepard, of Battle
Greek, Mich. .,inventedandbegan
to develop an entirely new and
novel style of Grain Thresher and

1853 they soon reached a pro-
duct Of 1000 yearly.
Their Vibrator drove the " End

it as closely as they dared. To-

CHICKEN SCRATCHINGS.

Save all the bones from the table, put
them in an old sheet-iron pan kept fnl
the purpose, and brown them slightly
Then pouAd them on a. rock with a ham
AK, or IL you can afford it, boy bone
cTusher.
Bone dust should not be mixed with
the chicken feed. 1t is too stimulatu-
and is liable to cause enlargement OF the
liver in hens that are not laying. Put j:
where the hens can get it, and those tnat
want it, and need ii, can then eat iI-.
what they care for and no more.
Have a scratching place, and do not
throw the chicken grain down on the
eleanest, hardest piece Of ground you car
find, but among leaves, or in straw, aut
make the hens scratch. Prepare the
scratching ground in place that is shel-
tered from the wind, and let it be a per
manent affair.
There is no profit in keeping mongrels
in your poultry-yard when pure-bloods
can be had at comparatively so small an
expense. Uniform chickens are not only
prettier and thus more satisfactory to
care for, but they may be fed to better
advantage than can flock which is made
up of large and small.
Don't cheat yourself with the belief
that once q month Is often enough to
clean out chicken-house. 1t should be
cleaned every day, or at the farthest,
every three days. You might about as
well leave the dropplngs under the roosts
as to throw them Just outside the door.
Take them to the Aeid or under a shed,
and mix with an equal quantity Of dry
soil.
