With a good road the wagons will last

be lessened.
No matter what oats are worth in the
market, If you grow them yourself you
can afford to feed them.
Sprouts growing up from the roots Of
trees take nourishment that should 90
to the trees. The sprouts are really
weeds, and should not lie allowed to
grow even an inch. Unless kept down
they not only injure the trees, but rem

Calves that are weaned from their
dams when but few days old are not
easily raised during the warm season.
Give them fresh milk four times a day,
and as they can be taught to take itglye

Care OF Poultry.
[H. Edes in American Cul,lyst

Il
Many Of the suggestions as to the care
of poultry are unnecessarily cruel. In
my own experience with poultry have
secured satisfactory results with less &C.
verify in handling the fowls. 1t ia quite
a common practice to lay barrel on Ito
side, placing the hens and chicks in il,
closing the end, leaving only space for
the chicks to run in and out, thus keep.
ing the hen prisoner until such time
as the chicks are ready for the fattening
coop. The latter is something do not
possess-in fact, have no use for.
My hens and chicks are given a roomy
coop, with slat yard 4x3 feet, which
gives the hen a chance to scratch and
exercise and look after her family. This
partial freedom secures the hen in good
condition and prepar ed to resume laying
eggs weeks earlier than when kept cloae-
y confined.
While some advocate undertaking,
give my fowls all they will eat twice a
day. and my egg record is the best in
the neighborhood. / am convinced that
liberal feeding will increase the receipts
and keep the fowls in good condition.
One Of my friends tried undertaking
with the result that the flock was slowly
starving. A change of plan and more
liberal feeding improved the flock, and
gave remunerative results for the in.
creased cost.
Another neighbor was advised to feed
but once day. He got no eggs, and do.
served none. At this time l was getting
four and one-half and five dozen eggs
from a flock of ninety fowls, many Of
them three yoqra old
My chicks at twelve weeks old weigh
six pounds to the pair, and have perfect
freedom. When one can produce chicks
Of that weight by allowing them to en-.
JOY the few weeks OF life allotted to
them, what need of combining them in
fat'ening coops and excluding all light
by green shade to be partially raised
at feeding time. This latter was the ad-
vice of recent writer in an agricultural
paper. In my own experience, if fowls
are made comfortable and contented,
they will make constant gains, and be-
ieye the quality of the chickens will DO
better than under close confinement.

the probable nominations of the two

The circumstance was forgotten until

One guess was remarkably close, con-
sidering the date and the circumstances.
It was that Of Mr.. George II. Parks, of
Chicago, who predicted the nomination
by the Republicans of Harrison and
Mckinley, and by the Democrats OF
Cleveland and Stevenson. Nobody else
in the party mentioned Harrison OF
