THE POULTRY INDUSTRY.
ITS Relations to Agriculture and 10 the
ARripnlturist Considered.

Us Relations to AGriculture and to the
Agricniturist Considered.
Director A. @. Gilbert, Of the Ottawa
tOnt.) station, in paper considering
poultry in it's relations to agriculture,
said that its importance is learned only
through figures. Take the list Of eggs
and poultry exported from Canada L
the year ending June 30, 1899, we find
the amount % ,374 Gil, less only in value,
In the whole List, than lumber, cattle,
fish, barley, coal and cheese, but greater
than other articles exported. 1t may be
considered singular, but it Is true, that
the value of the eggs and poultry ex-
ported In that same year, 1889, exceeded
that Of any single branch Of manufac-
tured articles, and was more than half
the amount Of the total value of all
manufactured articles exported. In the
following year ending June 80, 1890, we
hnd the value of the eggs and poultry
exported to the United States stands
third on the list, representing 81 ,842, 424,
as compared with q 1857 ,ss5 for horses
and "a, 582, see for barley, and in all fair
ness 1t must be remembered that the
eggs and poultry figures represent an
undeveloped industry. Immense guam
titles of eggs and poultry are consumed
by cities Take, for instance, Phiiadel-
phia, with million people daily con-
Stunning so, 529 eggs. In one year the
population consumed 5000 barrels and
81, 800 boxes Of poultry, and the hens
that were spared the Ratchet had to lay
10, 9S4 GOO dozens Of eggs. In treating
the subject of poultry In its relation to
the agriculturist, he says: 1t occupies
the position Of an undeveloped mine OF
wealth. For the capital invested there
is nothing about the farm that, with q
proper management, will return so great
profit. 1t is the only department of
the farm that will utilize what might
be waste and give In return for 1t: /.
The egg, representing cash at all times.
| Q. The young, which are revenue pro.
ducers In three to five months. g. The
valuable manure. 4. The body of the
hen, which will bring fair price after
rearing several broods Of chickens and
laying large number Of eggs.
1t seems to make no difference with
poultry whether they ore housed be-
meath the slate roof Of a pretentious
building or in a deserted pigpen 80
long as they are kept dry, fairly warm
and well attended. The farmer In
quires, What percentage of profit may ]
expect? In answer quote from Stod-
dard, author of twenty-five works on
poultry. He says: "One dollar per hen
profit where large flocks are kept is a
very good profit; that is about 100 per
cent. on the investment. In smaller
focks two and even three dollars per
hen is realized. But such prices are the
exception and not the rule"
You tell farmer that there is money
in poultry and he replies, "There may
be, but it takes lot of knowledge and
work to get it out Of them" 1t takes
intelligence and trouble to look after
any department on the farm. The man
who invents business that will make
money for him while he sits down and
looks at 1t will be the richest man the
world has ever produced.

Directions for Preparing and Applying
Tested Remedies for Insect Pests.
The Illinois State Entomologist gives
this formula for kerosene emulsion:
Soap. one half pound; water, one gal
Ion; kerosene, two gallons. Boil the
soap and water until the soap Is dis
solved, remove from the fire, add the
oil and churn until 0 thick cream or
butter is formed. Dilute with nine to
twelve parts Of water TO one Of eruul-
sion.
This may be used In destroying plant
lice, lice on live stock, and for insects
generally that take their food by sue
ton. II kills by contact. Apply by
spraying.
Regarding paris green and London
purple the authority quoted says in tho
Prairie Farmer that paris green is one of
the most generally used Of the insecti-
cides. When pure St has the advantage
of being a definite compound from
which definite results may be expected
from time to time. Because of its
weight paris green does not remain long
suspended in weter, and hence requires
constant stirring when in use. London
purple is much finer and lighter and re-
mains suspended In water much better.
1t is Objectionable because of the valua-
BILE quantity of arsenic in tit being O
waste product. Some Of the arsenic in
1t Is also soluble In water, making it
more apt to burn the foliage than is
paris green.
Professor Gillett first overcame the
latter objection by adding lime to the
mixture. Professor j. B. Smith, who
has experimental recently, says that by
adding, in weight, quick lime to equal
the amount of London purple, and mix
ing lime and purple to paste before
ldiluting for use, all the free arsenic is
taken up and an insoluble compound Is
formed which is as little injurious as
paris green. Practically the same pro-
portion OF each Of these arsenites may
be used in q mixture for spraying-one
pound In 200 or 800 gallons Of water.
Spraying should not be done on q very
hot day, especially not IN the middle of
the day, as injury to the foliage is apt
Ito follow. These remedies may be ap-
piled to almost all insects that take their
food by gngwing. Against such pests
as the May beetles and rose chafers It
Iis useless to apply them, as the pests
come in such number as to overwhelm
the plants without their hosts being ap-
parently diminished.
Fish oil soap is made of concentrated
I've, one pound; fish oil, three pints; soft
water. three gallons. Dissolve the I've
in the water and when brought to a
boil add the oil. Boil for two hours or
more and when cold 1t will become
solid. Dissolve one pound in eight or
ten gallons of water. Spray or use as a
wash upon trees or plants affected by
plant lice or scale insects.
White hellebore. the well known rem
iedy for currant gooseberry and rose
lslugs, is conveniently applied as spray;
dissolve one tablespoonful in one gallon
of water.
