by fowls, that are properly cared for.
The natural result is that their drop
pings contain more valuable food clc-
ments than any other manure made upon
the place. | have never realized this so
forcibly as during the past season when
] used it in my garden side by side with
commercial fertilizer. The fact that the
poultry manure gave better satisfaction
than the artificial compound was prob
ably due to the care which had been
taken to properly preserve it, | believe
it is an exception to the general rule
when proper care is given to this dress
ing by farmers. 1t is either allowed to
collect in heaps under the rooSts, where
it may remain for months rendering the
air impure, or it is thrown out Of doors
to be wasted by rains, and its nitrogen
(the specially strong and valuable point
in this fcrtiliZer) disSipated in the air.
My own method is to remove the drop
pings frequently from the pens and place
them in barrels, with a generous supply
Of dry absorbent, such as road dust, but
never wood ashes or lime. Snch u plan
involves rather more labor perhaps than
most farmers would think they could
give to the matter, and so ! am Of the OPP
inion that the very best general plan

pens thoroughly, and then cover the floor
to the depth Of at least six inches with
perfectly dry road dust, which can al
ways be obtained during a dry time in
the summer, fall, and spring. All the
droppings that fall into this dust will be
quickly covered and their moisture
absorbed by the constant scratching
over the whole room, particularly If oats
and wheat are thrown down occasion
ally. BY this arrangement there will be
no heaps formed beneath the roosts, be-
level all, and keep an even mixture over
the whole floor.
The finest dust will fill every crack and
Granny, and provide bath each day for
the fowls, so that vermin will be UNI
known. In this way | think the pens
need not be cleaned out more than twice
Il ycar-in the fall and spring. The
manure laden dust will be found to be
most excellent dressing, and it will have
the merit of not being so concentrated in
this FORM and so will not be likely to be
njudiciously used as frequently happens
with the undlutcd article, and yet not
particle of its value will be lost, while
the pens will be kept sweet throughout
the year, and the fowls kept free from
the common pest of vcrmin. Care should
be taken if this plan is followed that the
drinking water is not spilled, for when
road dust under cover becomes wet, it
dries very slowly, and dampness in the
poultry house is especially to- be avoiCed.

Dairy Notes.


DON'T let dairy meeting in your
neighborhood get away from you, wheth-
er You know much or little about the
science Of dairying.
SEVERAL correspondents have Incl
dentally said recently that they are
warming the water, this winter, for
their cows are pleased with the result.
We are not surprised.
EVERY pound of oleomargarne that is
sold takes the place of pound of gen
nine butter, and for that reason,
if for no other, hotels, and board
ng-houses should be forbidden by law,
to feed it to their patrons without knowl-
edge.
ONCE in aw1a3e.ayJd oftener, somebody
gives the public th6Oeneiit of his belief
about abortion in the herd, and when we
get through reading 1t, we know just as
much as we did before.
THE butterine makers kick like ebay

legislation, from examining their dirty
products down the Threats of those who
eat at public eating houses, but they
must be made to be decent.
THE practice of the golden rule toward
the herd is just as important as its prac.
tice toward our fellowmen. Do unto the
cow as you would be done by, If you were
in her place, is about all there is to the
proper management of the herd.

Chops for Sitting Hens.

AS a prccaution against storms and
severe cold, all the coops for sitting hens
SHOULD be placed in the poultry-hOuse or
under she'd. When the hens come Off
with their broOds the cOops should be
carried into the barn during the stormy
weather, and they should be so con-
structed as to permit Of carrying the
hens and chicks in the coops. No mat
ter how closely u hen may hover her
chicks, she cannot protect them in win
ter when they are exposed to severe cold,
and the chicks will sometimes become
chilled during the day when they are
picking up bits outside of the coop. All
coOps for hens with broOds should be
we'll Uttered with cut hay, and every
care used to have them as warm as can
be. When the hen is sitting, her nest
should be in a warm place and her food
placed where she can reach it without
being compelled to go very far from the
nest

THE GARDE n.


When one has discovered which kinds
of crops he can best produce, it is im-
pOrtant to hold steadily to raising them,
and not Oh account of fluctuations in the
market to shift from one thing, to another
from year to year This is the regular
movement, ebb and flow, of the great
mass of guilty and the result is THAT
some crops are always OVcrprOduG@d or
undCrproduced. The onion is u notable
example of this sort. Among fruits the
strawberry is constantly subject to- this
shifting movement. Only the steady
cultivator gets amy benefit by u short
crop, while the mass of growers are
nearly always met with full and low
priced market.
Unusual success in any particular
crop, by reason of superior local adVan-
tages, will often induce many others to-
undertake similar production, ana often
with the effect of finding sale with little
or no profit ut moSt, or perhaps worse.
with an actual loss. Celery growing the
past year has been widely extended, and
in many cases far beyond the needs Of
local consumption, leaving heavy stocks
to be thrown into the great markets,
where but little is realized from them.
A notable instance among fruits in the
Northern States at the present time is
grape growing. Certain localities favor
able to the production of grapes of fine
quality, having established profitable
industry after many years of trial and
difficulty, now find that their success
has encouraged many persons to plant
vineyards on grounds with no particular
adaptation to them, and with the result
of producing large mass of fruit of in
feror grade. The result is not that the
good fruit brings the best price, but the
price of the fruit of poor quality deter
mines that of the whole, without dis
tinction. Such is the fact. -I'ick's Mag
