Poultry Feeding in France.


In France and some other parts of
the old country, says the American
Poultry Journal, those who raise
poultry on a large scale have a feeding
apartment for all surplus stock that
is intended for the market, and each
one OF the fowls is put in a little coop
fixture just large enough for the body,
with the head outside. They are then
placed in revolving fixture in large
numbers, but each one in separate
apartment by himself. There are
rows OF fowls thus fixed one above the
other, and the man with the food goes
up on an elevator feeding one row
after another until he gets to the top.
He has an instrument with a tube
attached, the end of which is placed in
the fowls mouth, and by one turn Of
a little crank on the machine the
fowls crop is filled.
In this way they have no exercise
whatever, and will fatten very rapid
ly, and the breeder who adopts this
method always gets the highest
market price paid for his fowls when
ready to be sold.

TWO of Them Whose Experiences
Differ Slightly in Details.
There was a prominent business
man in Washington whose disappear
ance was recorded several years ago.
He walked out of the house after
breakfast one morning and did not
return. The newspapers recorded his
disappearance and the family was
distracted. At first the usual report
OF financial troubles started, but the
New York World says, this was found
to be groundless. Two years passed
without any word from the absent
man and then one morning he arrived
in g. western town to which his family
had moved and told the story OF his
absence. The morning that he left
Washington he had gone to the depot,
driven by an uncomfortable impulse,
bought a ticket for New York, and
boarded the train. Arriving in the
metropolis he took a Liverpool steam
er. In Liverpool he walked from the
steamers dock to another wharf and
took passage on a sailing vessel with
out any idea of the ships destination.
When his normal senses returned to
him, after an interval oftwo years, he
found himself engaged as bookkeeper
on big sheep ranch in New South
Wales, Australia. Thereupouhed drop

he had taken it up and retraced his
travels back to America.

similar trip abroad for five months.

lose his senses. He was engaged in a,
social game Of poker with a number
OF friends late one night, and some

by the excitement of the game.
Suddenly the door opened, his wife
walked in, seized her lesser half by tie

however, he went to the ibamk and

Mr.. Hayward fumbled in his vest

his humble pensloner.
That afternoon Fern and Meloria
held consultation, and in spite OF the
latUer's disgust Fern decides that she
will outrage society and.wear her old
dotted swiss.
"Ill surprise father" she decided
triumphantly. "You see, Meloria, I'll
cut it out at the neck, and make little

do you know I'll feel much better than

Mr.. Hayward scanned his daughter
Tod TO- n
his heart he had never seen a fairer
picture than the living embodiment OF
youth and modest beauty before him.
The swiss remodeled and made
after a bede pattern with the firm
round throat bare and the white arms
uncovered from the elbow, but the
radiant face, with it's dusky eyes glow
ing in childish anticipation, would
have beautifed any dress.
When to his criticisms she laughing
ly cried that he was a thorough man
not to know it wasn't new at all and
had been trimmed in all those futter-
ing ribbons for So he grew voluble in
his praises and blushed uncomfortably
as she offered to return 81.
"No," he answered, trying to become
facetious: eve will see what the ultim-
alum is and may be you can have it
toward your weddings gown
Both laughed at the absurdity OF
the speech, but when Meloria heard a,
carriage stop and went down to re-
ceive heryoung mistress her honest blue
eyes opened wide to see the distinguish
ed-looking man who helped her over
the pavement to the door and fingered a
moment to be sure that she was not
at all fatigued and to receive her falt-
ering and blushing thanks for his and
his mothers kindness in bringing her
home
One month later Fern is invited to
Mrs. Lansing's to tea and she avoids
Meloria's eyes as she asks her to iron
the famous swiss dress.
"Mr. Lansing asked me to wear it
tonight, and, Melofia-he says he
would be so pleased if I would wear it
the evening three months from now
when I become his wife, because I wore

treaties to add a bit of lace or some

the bright idea dawns upon the cattle
breeding mind that the quicker an
animal is ready for the shambles the
greater'is the economy in raising it.
The four-year-old steer, when he
Gomez to be fed upon rations that
cost something, is found to be very
expensive sort of a beast, and the eff
fort now is to get an animal that can
be fattened and turned over to the
butchers at less than two years OF
age. In the case of such animals, as
Field and Farm happily put it, She
turnover is much more rapid, and
two blades OF grass grow for one,
relatively speaking. The economy OF
the farm is vastly enhanced, the pro.
ducer getting more beef and of very
much better quality, and the consum-
er is benefited by the absence Of
tough sinew and the more delicate
flavor of the meat.
Such q change in method as this is
one that goes to the very foundation.
The reform must begin at the begin
ming. When the more than half-wild
cattle ranged the plains in search
of food, it made little difference
whether they were two years or four
in putting on the maximum OF flesh,
or whether they lost or gained, ac-
cording as the pasturage was flush or
bare But to make profitable beef on
high-priced land and boughten, there
must be no step backward. The beast
must grow from the very beginning, a
steady progression from start to fin
ish. And, as already remarked, the
quicker it arrives at salable condition,
the greater economy it will be for the
farmer.
This quickness OF maturity in beef
animals is a. matter that demands
careful study. It won't do to follow
old-fashioned methods. The products
of the farm to be used for feeding pur-
poses must be those best adopted to
beef making in the shortest time and
at the lowest cost. The Western beef
maker is going to encounter sharp
competition, and he will have to 'look
sharp" in order to hold his own under
the new order OF things. He can do Is
if he is not, like Ephraim, coined to
his IDOLS"

Wheat Sowing.

From experiments in wheat sowing
that have been carried on for several
years at the Ohio Agricultural Expert
ment Station, we learn that average
results favor sowing at the rate of
five to seven pecks per acre OF thor
oughly cleaned seed, and sowing this
not to exceed two inches deep.
In favorable seasons broadcast
seeding has produced about as large
a crop as drilling; but if the seeding
season be hot and dry, drilling is like
ly to give the best results.
No advantage has yet been discov-
cred in the mixing of different variet-
les.
There has been a slight increase of
crop where the wheat was cross.drill-
ed, the same quantity of seed being
used in each case. This increase may
be partly due to the more thorough
pulverization Of the soil accomplished
by the double drilling. The roller
press-a wheel following each hoe of
the drill-has not increased the yield
sufficiently to warrant it's use.

Farm Topics.

Field bean culture requires high
manuring, good soil and frequent
and thorough cultivation. Thus
treated, the beam will yield hand
some profit.
An exchange says that cotton seed
meal and pea meal are among the
best things to combine with ensilage,
if you are feeding with an eye to the
manure pile, as you should be.
The best stock fetch the top price
There are so vast a multitude Of
farmers and stockmen who raise in
ferior animals that the enterprisng
man who goes in for producing the
best has a pretty clear field.
The fact that sheep will clear an
old pasture OF weeds and sprouts
must not be taken as an indication
that weeds and sprouts are all the
provender they need. They will exist
on such coarse fare-but they won't
do much more than exist.
To fatten fowls or chickens quickly,
give them plenty OF milk, from fresh
to thick. Feed with a grain diet, as
one counteracts any possible deleter-
ious effects of the other. When milk
is fed no water is necessary for fat
tening fowls.
Horses, like other animals, de not
need their old coats when warm
weather comes. The horse, ABOVE
all other animals, wants the peers of
his skin open. Get the old coat off
and make it more comfortable by
grooming.

Farm Cheese Making.

20.
We do not intend to speak of cases
where the environments of ones To-
cation naturally decides the question,
as where a farmer has number of
good customers providing a steady
market the year around for his but
ter, or where the section of country
lies adjacent to some large city, max
ing the sale OF milk much more pro-
fitable. We have often found far
mers toiling to make butter, when by
putting their milk on the train and
sending to the city would net them,
the year around, 10 to Is cents a.
gallon. We know a neighborhood
where the farmers are gathering their
cream and selling it for nine cents per
inch says a writer in Farm and
Home, when the same quantity OF
milk required to produce this amount
of cream will make two pounds
OF fine cheese worth on the mar
ket to-day ten cents per pound. Now
this seems to settle the qUes-
ton from a financial standpoint. A
oiIAcciA iieOAio-AIttIAO pLcoS, VdC dtiu
hoops, furnished us on this farm with
some extra fine cheese, with much less
labor, than it would have cost to have
made butter. Besides having all we
could use for the several families con-
nected with the farm, we sold several
hundred pounds of our '.Y Dung Amer
icas" at Is cents a pound, and as
butter only brought the same we re-
received more than double value for
our produce. Again, cheese will not
only keep, properly turned, all
through the long Summer days, but
continually get better, while the re-
verse is true OF butter. Another very
great factor not usually taken inta
consid eration is that the public's taste
is changing Fresh butter is demand
ed; the days OF June butter, kept for
six months, are past. Cheese contains
the proper nutriment for laboring
man, it is q muscle and bone former,
while butter is a luxury.
