In planning about how many fowls YOU

twenty-five hens well housed and well
cared for generally are more profitable
than fifty would be if crowded into a
house that is only large enough for
twenty-five or thirty and left to the care
OF themselves. Every hen over the num-
Der that you can house and care for well
will be kept at a loss. When cuIling your

the old hens for winter layers. Do not be

for those early pullets which will soon be

WHAT FARMERS DREAD.

MISCELLAN EOUS ITEMS.
Keep your dairy away from your beef
stock. You can not afford to feed both
/ alike.
A young colt can be grown 100 pounds
4 month on sweet SKIM milk with a very
small grain ration and some clover hay.
To cure mango in hogs, wash clean with
soap and water and then rub all over with
lard with little coal oil added, taking
pains to keep dry afterwards.
A farmers wife says: "The cows and
the hens paid for the arm. They marched
UP with their butter and eggs each wear
and ate up the notes as they Tell due;
Professor Storer says ration of thirty
pounds Of pumpkins per COW daily will
increase the flow and i'm prove the oualitv
of milk. More than this quantity should
not be fed.
The hired man hates to work for an en-
ployer who does not know when a good
days work has been done. Almost
every man likes to be patted on the
back and called a good fellow once in a
while.
Many years since apples were packed
in barrels from which lime had Just been
emptied. On opening them in the spring
they were nearly all sound, while the
same variety not thus packed were badly
rotted.
The sureSt way to make a profit is to
keep down the cost. There should be no
hesitation in procuring that which is
needed, but waste should not be allowed.
The cost may be lessened by doing all
work at the proper time and by the use of
the proper implements.
The standard for good COW is rapidly
rising. \ few years ago 800 pound cows
were Scarce, now they are found in
herds OF twenty. Soon we will have the
standard up to 400 pounds, and then our
200 pound friends will probably gain an
other so pounds in order to keep their
places in the procession.

The Dog Didn't Like His snore.

In hunting for evidence of dog fight
Sunday the officers learned that one
Herbert Spr-gue, a stevedore, had been
bitten by canine. Investigation shows
that Sprague went to bed Saturday
night with bull pup. Sprague snored,
and this disturbed the dog, SO he
scratched his owners face to wake him.
Sprague retaliated by cutting the ca
nine, whereupon the bull fastened his
teeth in the mans nose and then shoe :
him, sadly decorating the member.
Sprague finally broke the hold, disabled
the dog with chair and then got a
neighbor to shoot him. The nose will
recover, but looks bad.-Bangor Cor

review Of school Work.

AS the present school year OF our city
schools is about drawing to close, a short
review of the work done might not be
amiss, especially as the schools seems to
be in very prosperous conditional fact
that reflects credit upon the principal and
his efficient corps of helpers. The FREE
PRESS has not made a very thorough in
vestigation, but knows that a spirit of
harmony prevails generally, especially
among the patrons. Last year new
course of study was outlined, which mot
with the unanimous approval OF the board
OF education, and under it the work of es-
tablshing thorough grade has gone on,
though with some hard work for both
teachers and pupils.
In the past attention was chiefly direct
ed to grammar and primary work, but this
year they have gone above the tenth grade,
the superintendent making special effort
to establish a high school, and he has been
so far successful as to now have one that
compares with any other one in the state.
A graduating class Of three has been
formed and at the closing exercises next
month they will become full-hedged grad
yates. These extra higher grades have
made it necessary to employ only one new
teacher the past year, and of course this
naturally makes the work on the other
teachers all the harder.
Some fifty volumes have been added to
the school library, which is mainly due to
the principal and pupils of the high school
Taken altogether the schools of the city
are in the best shape, and to further this
happy state of affairs all should unite in
Keeping them ia this condition.

is always comparatively easy to create a
