GAPES IN CHICKENS.
Preventive and Cure for This Trouble
some Disease.


some Disease.
The following points regarding gapes,
if observed, will prove preventive and
cure for this troublesome disease, name
ly: l. Scatter air-slacked lime freely
over the ground occupied by fowls. 2.
Put little of the lime in the drinking
water. 3, Should signs of gapes ap-
pear, feed the fowls twice week with
stiff corn-meal dough, first intimately
mixing teaspoonful spirits of turpen-
tine with quart Of the meal. 4. Give
very sick chick a drop of turpentins
on bread crumb. 5. If this fails, then
strip a feather, leaving Il small tuft on
the end, dip it in turpentine, insert the
end of the feather in the windpipe, and
quickly withdraw, 8. Feed on clean
boards. Z. Never allow uncatcn food
to remain on the ground s. Keep the
ground clear of filth. 8. The rich, moist
places, such as are favorable to earth
worms, are favorable to gapes. 10. Do
not mistake lice for gapes, as the big,
gray lice on the skin of the heads and
nccks will often cause the chicks to
! gasp from weakness. 1t is not an easy
matter to insert feather down the
threats of large number of chicks;
hence the best wholesale method is to
give the turpcntine in corn meal, aiid
to use plenty of lime on the ground, as
the lime will destroy all germs of gapes

An Insect Which Deserves the Farmers
Love and Protection.
The bee-hy shown in the accompany
ing illustration is friend of ours, and
deserves our love and protection. Its
name is Anthrax hypomelas (MacqO,
and its services to us consist in the free
use it makes of the cut-worm chrysalis

great numbers of these our dreaded
enemies. Several related species of the
Anthrax have the same satisfactory

THE POULTRY YARD.

SCATTER lime on the floor of the poul-
try house occasionally now.
HATCH pullets in March and they will
commence laying in October.
For big roasting fowls cross the
Langshans with the Plymouth Rocks.
ONE of the chief advantages with the
incubator is that earlier Matching can
be secured.
ALMOST any of the standard breeds
are better layers than the common
dunghill fowls.
The fowls that can best be depended
upon for winter laying are the early
Matched pullets.
AS A general rule old hens will lay
larger eggs and will hatch out thriftier
chickens than young pullets.
ONE of the poorest places to fix the
poultry house is along the side of the
barn or sheds for any of the other stock.
THE worst objection to geese on the
farm is their liability to trespass upon

sklM.MILk For CALVES.
A Good Substitute for Sweet Milk Whe
Properly Prepared,

Properly Prepared.
A Canadian feeder of long experience
says that his calves are fed by hand all
the new milk they can take three times
a day until about week old. Then
skim-milk Is added, only little at first,
but tho quantity of slSim-millx is so in
creased and that of the new milk so re-
duced that in two weeks from the COM
mencement of this change shim-milk
only is fed, and this only when sweet,
as when sour 1t produces scours and in
jures digestion in other ways. Skim
milk is fed at temperature of milk just
taken from the COW. In heating 1t
portion of the milk is put on the stove
in pan or pail and heated gradually
until quite warm. 1t is then poured into
the portions set apart for each calf.
The calves get the milk three times a
day for about month from the begin
ming of the change to skim milk, but a
less quantity is given at noon. If fed
regularly they may drink all the skim
milk they wish without injrry.
When the change is being made from
new to skim-milk, flaxseed is added to
the milk. Prepare it as follows: For
two calves, take half teacupful of fax
at night, pour on two quarts of boiling
water and allow to steep until morn
ing, then warm and add to the milk;
the quantity may be gradually but
slowly increased until three-fourths of
a teacupful faxseed stepped in pro-
portionate increase of hot water is
given to each animal. The fiaxseed
for the night meal is put to steep in the
same way in the morning, Milk is fed
until the calves are seven or eight
months old. They are given access to
as much clean water as they will drink
at all times. They get all the meal
they will eat up clean twice a day The
meal consists OF one-fourth ground
peas, one-fourth ground oats and one.
half wheat bran this is mixed with
good hay run through cutting-box
The proportion of hay to meal is in
creased as the calves get older. Where
meal of this kind is not to be had, ther
give the calves oats, which may be fec
whole, and need not be mixed with cut
hay. When autumn comes oat sheaves
are cut fine and the meal mixture
added, but not so much of it in guam
tity as when the cut oat sheaves are moi
fed. They get what long hay they ear
up clean in winter, and green food o.
almost any kind in summer. They are
kept in loose box stalls IL the stable
through the first summer, and stalls are
kept dark in the season of flies. They

GOOD LISTENERS.
They Are Much Rarer Than Good Ta1it-
ers or Writers.


ers or Writers.
1t has often been remarked that for
a hundred brilliant takers you shall
find but ten good writers, and we may
add, but one good listener. The truth
is that many, and, perhaps most per-
sons need the stimulus of contact with
another mind to arouse their own pow
ers and put them on their mettle.
When they lack this stimulus, and sit
down to the writing-desk, they are like
race-horse in his stable. Their flu
ency and brilliancy in conversation re-
suit from exterior impulses, like the
Jockeys whip, from accidental associa-
tions of ideas and suggestions from
without, which they can not command
when alone. The persons thus sensi
tive to external expressions often re,
main lethargic and irresponsible to the
unaided summons of the will. The ex-
element of collision with another's
intellect once over, their power of i'm
provisation is gone. That is why good
takers frequently disappoint us when
they take up the pen. There are per-
sons, on the other hand, whose minds,
perhaps by reason of their rare caliber
and fulncss, move too slowly to do
themselves justice in conversation.
They need isolation, silence, abstrac-
ton and concentration TO give form and
expression to their ideas.
1t is said that James Russell Lowell,
is not only an exception to this rule, but
that-what is more surprising when we
consider how much he has to say-that
he is a delightful listener. TO be q
good listener is an art which presup-
poses wise and kindly nature. The
artist in listening has learned that
something may be learned from the
humblest speaker, and that everybody
is wiser than anybody. How seldom,
when we think of it, do we meet with
an attentive and interested auditor
one who seems to drink in what we say
and to sympathize with every turn Of
thought or feeling! Some persons will
not allow you to finish sentence; they
interrupt, or are restless until they can
seize a chance to speak. They snatch
words out of your mouth and state them
differently from what you intended,
Macaulay is said to have had trick OF
doing this, as also Of indulging in mon.
ologue, which paralysis general CONVEX
sation, But the worst sinners are those
who look about while you are talking
and give only half-mind to what you
are saying; they chill the life out of a
talller.
Curiously enough, it is not just now
the thing to talk well in English So
ciety. The diner-out of the Sheridan or
Theodore Hook type is no longer the
fashion. Strange that TO be interesting
and amusing should be bad form! 1t is
| otherwise in France. There n good
talker is still priced. and the result is
that nobody is no more agreeable than
clever and educated Frenchman. He
never crates, and he is so Slight and
quick of hand that the ball of conversa-
ton never falls. They who have once
! listened to the ga of a cultivated and
| intelligent man who has learned the art
of Expressing his ideas in swift and
pleasing way, have no longer any relish
for the chit-ehat OF ordinary sncirtJ -.
