A Sound Position.

Ex-senator Wallace, of Pennsylvania,
proposes an educational qualification
which would exclude iliterate foreigners
from citizenship. He takes the position
that applicants for American citizenship
should be required to read and write SUI
ficiently to gain some comprehension of
the American system of government be-
fore aiding IN the control of its affairs.
Nobody will dispute thu soundness of the
exsenator's position, but it is doubtful
whether the politicians could be induced
to consent to it-Kansas City Star.

One More for the Mckinley Bill.

Chicago's big barley syndicate. has
bought 100000 acres of North Dakota
land on which to raise barley for malt
purposes. This is direct result of the
Mckinley bll's increase of the duty on
barley. The free traders harped and
carped, and said that we couldn't raise
good malt barley in this country, and
that We would better import from Canada
forever. But North Dakota is higher in
latitude than the north shore of Lake
Ontario. Nothing like developing our
own country first. The protection idea is
not only american markets for Ameri-
can products" but also american pro-
ducts for American markets. New

Points of Interest.

When eggs are cheap breed your
chickens and set your hens. When eggs
are dear sell them and turn all your her
force into layers as far as possible. Give
egg producing food and let your non-sit.
ting breeds have full action.
Complaint is made that feeding en-.
silage causes loss of the teeth Of animals,
This may be remedied by feeding some
hard, dry food daily along with the en-.
silsge. Some hay to chew on is good,
also occasionally oat grains are desirable.
In the Rhode Island Agricultural
school and in the Michigan Agricultural
college Bookkeeping is taught as one OF
the regular branches. So it ought to be
in all schools of farming.
Be extremely careful in breeding the
fowls you mean to keep for stock. See
that the birds you mate are free from
blemishes, in the prime of chicken life
and in perfect health. Then after the
eggs are laid take the utmost care of
them, selecting only the largest and
finest for Matching, unless you want tc
breed dwarfs; in that case choose the
smallest mes. If this care were exer-
cised there would not be so much com
plant of defective Matching. To hatch
we'll eggs must be handled with great
care. and not shaken or moved violently.
Farm horses well taken care of have
a working life of twelve TO eighteen
years. Street car horses, on the con
trary, live only four or five years.
Never use a long, gangling, overgrown
rooster for breeding, says a poultry
writer. 1t is nearly impossible to fill
him up, and he never makes a good ta-
BILE fowl.
A we'll stocked fish pond ought to be a
part Of every farmers resources, and the
brooks and streams Oh his place ought
to be alive with nsn. The fish commits
sion of New York furnishes fish stock tc
those who make application, and every
state in the Union might have similar
arrangements. 49,

This fine horse is y noted prize win
ner. He is very active, clean limbed
and sure footed. Fe shows even in the
black AM white of plain newspaper
illustration the beautiful notified gray
color SO characteristic of the Percheron,
the tintings of which Rosa Bonheur
brings out so m~arvelously in her horse
paintings. While these Percheron horses
are as docile as they are beautiful. they
have a will of their own. Not long since
a French steamer bringing a splendid
Percheron stallion to the United States
was delayed half a day by the pranks of
the animal before he could be induced
to board the ship. he was perfectly
good natured about it, playful, indeed,
but when it came to walking the plank
and boarding that ship he simply would
not do il. It was necessary to be care
full not 20 brighten or injure him, hence
the task was rendered all the more diff
cult. At length it was necessary to rig

With the home bred stock it is next to
impossible to obtain q horned calf.
Horned COWS are sometimes bought, but
they are dishOrned as soon as possible
At least IS per cent. Of the calves from
these dishorned COWS and the polled
bull are polled. The cattle are fastened
in the Parsons stanchion, and the
polled heads are secure there. Horns
are not necessary to hold an animals
head in the stanchion! The oxen used
on the place are Devons, with fine large
horns, but Mr.. Hoyt proposes to try
polled oxen, too. The bull is worked in
a tread power. The cattle are well fed
and cared for. Two large silos are filled
every year.
A good deal Of the ensilage corn is
grown close by the barn, on ground
where nursery stock is ''heeled in" until
May. Dry stalks from which ear corn
is husked are run through the cutter and
fed dry OR with the silage. But little hay
is fed, the stalks and silage affording
"roughage" enough. It pays better t.
sell timothy hay and buy stalks and
grain. In former years many tons of
roots were grown, but the silo has made
the root crop a "back number" Glover
wa tried in the silo one year, but did
not prove wholly satisfactory. 1t turned
out strong smelling stuff, unpleasant to
handle. The corn is ground, "cob and
all" and large quantities of bran, oats,
cotton seed meal, middlings, ETC., are
bought and fed. The grain is fed dry or
scattered on the ensilage, which is given
three times a day.
The COWS are turned out to water
every day. The water is brought to the
barns by means of a hydraulic ram,
which has been in use since 1856. Suit
able pipes carry it all over the buildings
and into convenient tanks, about which
the polled COWS cluster like sheep. Sur
plus milk is sold to the local creamery.
The is hauled or wheeled out
into the barnyard, where it lies until
wanted for the crops. Mr.. Hoyt is con-
WINGED that it will pay him to build a
roof over this yard to protect the COWS
and the manure from the rain. He also
wants some more economical way of
getting the manure out of the stable than
wheeling it out. The barns and sheds
are built close together, and steps are
saved whenever it is possible to save
them.

self against fences and trees in its efforts
for relief, and it leaves wool and mites
scattered along its way, and the next
sheep that comes past there will get the
infection.
When wool from a scabby sheep is
sold and passes into the hands of the
wool s%orters, the mite attacks their
hands and produces wool s~orters' itch.
1t is to be dreaded more than any other
scourge of sheep breeders, except per
haps dogs, and for this reason must be
guarded against %vigilantly. The mo-
ment a sheep in a flock is seer to be
losing its wool and rubbing itself against
posts and buildings, examine it at once,
to see if there is not a scab where the
rubbing and bare spots are. If so, sep
arate it from the rest of the flock, and
give it a dip into a mixture composed of
four ounces of tobacco stems, or coarse
tobacco, and one Of sulphur, stirred and
stepped thoroughly in a gallon of boiling
water. This should be the proportion,
and the quantity used should be sufficient
to the sheep all over except it's
head. The liquid should be hot when
the animal is dipped, not less than 1923
dogs. Rub the scab entirely off with a
corn cob or rough cloth. lii two weeks
repeat the dip and the animal will be
cured.
The loss from the scab mites to sheep
raisers cannot be calculated. Some
times whole hocks are destroyed. AS a
precautionary measure, many extensive
sheep farmers practice dipping their
focks twice a year in a sulphur and to-
bacco decoction, once at shearing time
and again in the fall.

VERMIN ON SHEEP.
Small but Wicked Foes of the Shee
Raiser.

Small but Wicked Foes of the Sheep
Raiser.
Owing to their thick, warm ~aeeces,
sheep are more subject to vermin than
other animals. The three worst pests
that trouble them are the sheep tick,
sheep louise and scab mite. Illustrations
OF all three are given below. By far the
worst is the scab mite, which is some
thing similar to the itch mite that at
tacks the hands Of dirty people. Crozier
says that if a lock of wool from a scabby
sheep is laid upon a sheet of white paper
there will be seen particles which look
like moving dust. These are scab mites.
They are terrible in their ravages. They
burrow into the animals skin under the
wool and set up a running sore. The
sore becomes covered with a scab, and
the wool pcels off. The itching is intol-
cradle. The suffering creature ruDs it.

THE PRODUCTION OF A BREED OF
HORNlESS CATTLE.

How q New Race of Polled Cattle Is Be-
-ng Built Up on a Connecticut Farm.
Picture of IL New Canaan Polled Cow.
Good Mixers and Gentle.
Hoyt Brothers, of New Canaan, Conn,
are gradually breeding a race of hornless
cattle. One of these COWS, shown in the
picture, has as pretty a 'bang'' as a fash
ionable girl. The Rural New Yorker
gives a highly interesting account of
their model farm, which furnishes CON
vincing evidence that agriculture in New
England can still be made to pay where
the farmer mikes brains with his toll.
How the New Canaan breed of polled
cattle was built up, The Rural New
Yorker relates as follows:
The Hoyts have never been able to see
any use for horns on dairy COWS. Some
years ago they began to collect, a polled
herd. Here and there, scattered about
the country, they found ''muley'' COWS
no one knows how they came to be with
out horns. A fire destroyed all their
cattle, and they then began again the
slow task of hunting for ''muleys."
One of the best COWS dropped a polled
bull calf, and with him at the head of
the herd it was soon easy to produce
polled calves. The present bull looks
like an Ayrshire with a dash of Jersey
blood. Many Of the COWS plainly show
the Jersey characteristics, while the
Ayrshire color largely predominates.
They are as gentle rs sheep. They are
above the average as mixers, and the
milk is of excellent quality. A typical
picture of the head and shoulders of one
of this new breed" is shown in the
illustration,

Beautiful Percheron.

Our illustration shows one of the most

to this country. He is at present owned
in Wisconsin. This is one Of the horses
Rosa Bonheur loved to paint, and when
this particular animal was brought
away from France she made a trip to
see him and bid him farewell. She
thought it was IL pity that SO beautiful
4 horse should leave France. However,
Frances loss is Americas gain, and
America is tho future horse breeding
ground Of the world. The stallion III
the picture is especially noted for his
grace and spirited action. He weighs
1900 pounds.

Profits of Feeding Sheen,

A correspondent of The Rocky Mount
ain H~usbandman, speaking of the ad-
vantages Of sheep over cattle on the
western ranges, says: It is a noted fact
that there is far less alarm over the pros
pect Of short winter feed among sheep
owners than any other class of stockman.
The reason of this is that sheep thrive
on very short feed, and when there are
any points bare along the foothills focks
may be kept fairly well, ever if the grass
has been closely grazed in the summer.
1t is also a fact that it is possible to
keep three or four thousand sheep on
hay about as easy as to keep so many
hundred cattle. Sheep do not seem to
consume food in proportion to csttle.
This is probably due to the fact that they
are kept constantly rustling for them
selves throughout each day, except when
it is storming, while cattle having no
herder are inclined to lay around the
premises and not go out to feed, even in
pleasant weather. Sheep are better
adapted to the exhausted condition of
our ranges by far than cattle.

A Milwaukee man had a horse that no
blacksmith could shoe on the hind feet.
At length the bright idea was hit Of
chloroforming the horse and putting on
the shoes. This was done. When the
beast came to himself he nearly kicked
his hind quarters off in the attempt to
get rid Of the shoes, but it was no go.
Science was too much for brute force.
