THE DAIRY.
Butter and Cheese Factories.


The following rules for the govern.
ment of butter and cheese factory pa.
irons in the care of their cows and mill
have been adopted by the Sheboygar
Falls, Wis, dairy board of trade:
That the patrons give their cows free
access to salt, or salt them regularly as
often as once or twice a week.
That they provide them with pure wa
ter, and as far as possible prevent them
from using any other.
That their cows be fed no whey or any
similar slop.
That they must not allow their COWS to
be worried by dogs or other brutes, biped
or quadruped.
That cows in heat should be separated
from the herd as far as practicable.
That they see that their pals and cans
are clean, and use no rusty or wooden
ones.
That they keep all foreign substances
out OF their milk asi much .aspossible,
and wash the cows udders before milk
ing, remembering that no straining will
cleanse milk once dirty.
That the milk cans be set in water at
the commencement of milking, and let
the water in the cooling tubs always be
higher than the milk in the cans.
That night and mornings milk must
not be mixed unless in case Of small
quantities, short distances to be carried,
and the morning milk cooled before
being put in cans.
That cooling places be at q good dis

THE POULTRY-YARD.
Young Chickens

Ny hens for grass run have an Or
chard of several acres. Grass and free
range are essential in making eggs fer
tile and getting strong chicks. When I
set my hens I use a cheese-box cutting
it SO the hen can get off and on without
breaking the eggs. I whitewash it in
side and out, and use straw we'll
broken, for nests. After placing the
eggs in the nest, put some sulphur on
them and when it is dark place the hen
on the nest, and give her whole corn
and water in her coop. l part of all
my settlers SO that they cannot get on
one another's nests. At the end Of nine
days look at the eggs, and take out
those not fertile. When they begin to
hatch do not disturb the chicks for
twenty four hours. 1t is better to let
them alone, las they are stronger for it.
If stormy. do not put them out of
doors for the first few days. The first
week I feed them hard-boiied eggs.
bread and crackers soaked in milk, and
all the milk they can drink, and feed
them often. 1t is a great deal of work,
but it pays to do it.
The second week I give them corn
meal we'll cooked, so that it will crum-
bic when feed it. Also some egg and
bread soaked in milk. fine cracked corn

and wheat. After that I give all thu
meal, corn, and wheat they want. Eggs
will start chickens to growing quicker
than anything that know of. Out of
ninety-five did not lose but three on
this diet. use barrel with board
fitted into it for a coop. This is about
II inches wide inthe widest part of the
barrel. Leave it back "a inches from
the front of the barrelto give the chicks
a chance to step up from the edge of the
barrel to the board which is about II
inches high. I put small yard in front
of the barrel, to give the hen q chance
to come out, and keep the chickens in
on rainy day by putting up boards
around the yard with driven stakes. The
ward is made of lath or narrow strips "a
feet long. Is inches high and 20 inches
wide. 1 put the lath u inches apart on
the vertical. I cover rubber Blankets
over the coop and yard on rainy days,
and whitewash the barrel once q week.
This keeps off lice and makes it sweet.
After the hen weans the chicks, I
change them to the house that l keep
them in during the winter, but give
them plenty of air and sand on the floor.
While in the small coops I leave about
two inches at the. top of the board that
covers them at night between the yard
and barrel for ventilation.-M. F.. Kel-
sen, in Farm and Home.

said to be born of despair. Father
meant to say that Hal was half-seas

ooh, how nice! That accounts for
his absence. He spoke of travelling for
his health; but think he might have

little, very wet sob stopped her voice.

""Sis, looky here; Hal was three

terror. "Tel me; tell me, Buddy,

"Naw," sneered Buddy, at doesn't.
Yes, it does, too" he continued. "His

Poultry Notes.

MINoRCAs are good summer and win
ter layers.
HENS should be given plenty of room
to scratch for living.
If you want good vigorous chicks,
take good care of your old birds.
DoCToRING poultry don't pay every
time. But prevention does.
CHARCOAL aids digestion and should
be kept constantly before the fowls.
EARLY Matched pullets make the best
winter layers, but not good breeders.
THE hen is a very superior creature,
though she can never lay corner stone.
HENS supplied with plenty of green
bone will lay more eggs than those with
out.
A HEN should be set in a dark, quiet
place, with access to plenty of water,
and corn, and a good dust bath.
