The Poultry World says: Do not at
tempt under any circumstances to keep
500, or even 200, adult fowls in one flock
Broods of half grown chickens may be
united in the fall until there are 500,
when there is an unlimited range, but
grown fowls never. In one yard there
ought not to be kept more than from
twenty to fifty hens, even if the yard is
large.
In raising poultry for profit you must
first consider the surrounding circum-
stances, the amount of capital to invest,
the space Of ground to be occupied and
the amount of help available.
American Agliculturist tells that clab-
bered milk is very nutritious article of
food for hens and growing pullets. 1t is
usually fed with bran, well mixed to-
gether.
AS general rule it will be found a
good plan to Introduce new blood into
the flock every year, either by getting
new roosters or a setting of eggs from a
reliable breeder.

separators and the Honey Market.

The influence of separators on the
honey market was a subject for consider
alton in a recent issue of The Beekeepers'
Review
j. A. Green, Of Dayton, his, approved
of separators, and uses these in the ship
ping cases as well as in the supers. He
contended that with separators honey
reaches the market in more attractive
condition, is easier to handle and to sell
than is that made without them. He
prefers the tin separators.
DR.. 9, @. Miller advised the use Of
separators wherever one wants their
comb honey to be packed for shipment
in some receptacle other than the one
that was ON the hive. He said, IF
loose separators are to be used, give pref
erence to wood; if fixed, tin."
r. l.. Taylor, Of Lapeer, Mich, said
that separators do not lessen the yield of
honey, but they are an expense from
which there are no cash returns. He
summed up the whole matter as follows:
For profit alone use no separators; il
straighter combs are desired use the t
super with separators; if the eye and the
taste are TO be gratified at the expense Of
financial proht use single-wide frames
with separators.

Potash for Wheat.

In the experiments made by Sir John
B. Lawes and DR.. Gilbert at Rotham-
stead for more than forty years, potash
seems to have had no effect as a ferti-
lizer for wheat, except when combined
with both phosphoric acid and nitrogen.
In the experiments now in progress at
the Ohio Experiment station potash seems
to have no effect on wheat, whether
used alone or in any combination. At
the experiment station of Kentucky pot
ash has produced very marked increase
of crop when used on corn, hemp, tobac-
co and potatoes; but here again it fails
to increase the yield of wheat, whether
used alone or in combination. The Ohio
and Kentucky experiments are as yet in
their infancy, and it is probable that as
the soil becomes more worn even wheat
will show some benefit from applications
of potash; but the present indications
are that this substance is seldom needed
in fertilizers intended for this crop. II
may be that the clover following the
wheat will make good use of the potash,
but this is point which has still to be
determined by experiment.

When potatoes are wanted for early
market correspondent writing in The
Republic says:
Great care should be taken to select
a piece of land that is we'll drained,
loamy and readily prepared in a good
tilth. Potatoes need deep preparation
and thorough cultivation in order to
receive vigorous growth. Get good
early variety. Early Sunrise and Charles
Downing are both good early varieties.
Get seed of good quality. Good seed
is necessary in order to secure vigorous,
thrifty plant. Il is much easier to keep
vigorous, thrifty plants growing than to
induce weak, sickly plant to grow well.
Prepare the soil well and then work
out the rows, running the plow deep.
Take forkful of fresh manure from the
horse stable and put where each hill of
potatoes is to be planted; put on this
about two inches of rich, fine soil and
then drop the seed on this and cover
three or four inches deep, at least, press
ing the soil down we'll upon the seed.
Keep the soil in a good tilth so as to Sc
cure vigorous growth. Thin out as soon
as the plants make their appearance
above ground, leaving not more than
three good vines to each hill. The bene-
fit of the manure is that it keeps the soil
somewhat warmer and also affords good
drainage-two items in securing an early
termination and start to grow. In this
way supply can be obtained earlier
than by almost any other way of out
door planting.

Sowing Grass Seed in the Spring.


If spring seeding is to be done make
the necessary arrangements in advance,
SO that the seeding can be done early. If
grass and clover seed are to be grown
together sow the grass seed a week or
ten days before sowing the clover Use
plenty of seed for one of the essential
items in securing the most profitable
crop with grass is to kaye a good, even
stand, and to secure this it is necessary
to use plenty of seed.
When sowing for meadow it is best to
keep each variety of grass separate. With
the exception Of orchard grass and clover
no two varieties of grass ripen at the
same time, and if one is cut at the right
stage the other will be little too green
or too ripe. Orchard grass and clover
ripen together, and can be sown together
to an advantage, the orchard grass help
ing in many cases to prevent the clover
from lodging. Orchard grass, clover,
timothy and redtop stand first as the
principal grasses sown for hay, and they
should be the foundation grasses for all
meadows or grass fields.
One of the best times to SOW grass or
clover seed is when the soil is thawing
and freezing alternately night and day.
Timothy or redtop, and sometimes clover,
is sown on winter wheat. Others prefer
to SOW oats and then sow clover, but the
objection to this plan is that when the
crop is harvested it leaves the grass
plants exposed to the hot rays of the
sun, and as it is often the case that there
is more or less drought at this time, the
plants are either seriously injured or en-
tirely killed out.-American Cultivator.

Occasionally there appears in addition to
the waistcoat a jabot of chiffon down the
front. For early spring wear there are also
jackets in the Newmarket shape in fancy
diagonal cloths.

trough. After the grain is placed in the

broke out, and NJ. and Mime. Roland threw
themselves into the movement with great
enthusiasm The revolutionists themselves,
however, soon divided into opposing part
les one containing Robespierre Marat,
Danton and other ferocious men, who used
murder and great cruelty to advance their
cause, and the other the Girondist party,
which advocated principles of law and or
der, to which the Rolauds belonged.
The former party determined to get rid
Of their opponents, and an attempt was
made to prove Nine. Roland and others
guilty of plot against the nation. Our
cut shows this courageous woman AS she
appeared when confined in the famous
prison Of the Conciergerie just after her
friends had been sent to the guillotine. In
this prison there was an iron railing sep
arating the part in which she was confined
from that of the male prisoners, and she
conyersed with them through this railing,
encouraging them by her noble sentiments.
Though no treason could be proved against
her, she was condemned TO death for her
faithfulness to the cause of the Girondists.
When Nine. Roland was being taken to
the guillotine for execution there was in
the same cart with her a man who was in
much fear. At the guillotlne it was con-
sidered privilege to he allowed to die first,

blood of others Nine. Roland was granted
this favor, but she begged that the man,
who was greatly terrified might go first.
The executioner demurred to this, but COM
piled when she said, with a smile, "You
cannot, | am sure, refuse the last request
Of a lady" When her turn came she gazed
on the colossal statue of liberty that stood
near the guillotine, and exclaimed, "Ah,

The Camp Game.

who in turn call the names of those they
desire to enter their particular camp. When
a division of the company has thus been
made the camps separate, each having one
room. They then select some word or

example, the loud pedal of the piano in the
Profile House in the White mountains, or
the dragon flies painted on the ceiling OF
the bathroom in the House of Pansa in
Saratoga, or any other thing seemingly
impossible to guess.
When both camps have decided on an
object to be guessed, the captain of each

must not convey any unnecessary informa-

Russell, the authority for the fore

ease, to pare the foot level and lower it
to its proper angle. The shoe should be
narrow in the web aud as light as can

far back at the heel as the safety of the

the four calfin shoe. Either of these
patterns, by shortening the ground sur

knee when the horse is moving forward
will relieve the strain and enable him
the better to pass his feet over uneven

cause Of twisting and straining the al

furthering a cure is to feed the horse
