Professor j. NJ. Bloss of the Ontario
State college gives, in recent lecture
on tile draining, some true and some
false theories. He claims that water
does not come through the tops of tile,
but from the bottom, where the ends
come together. In noting the foregoing
American Cultivator says:
This is generally true, though in Sc
vero rainstorm, when the soil is drenched
with water, some Of it is washed through
the cracks overhead, and to guard
against this coarse gravel ought to cover
these joints so as to hold the fine silt
that will otherwise spoil the drain. But
some water may and does soak through
the tile when the ground is saturated,
and in denying this the professor is in
the wrong He says that porous tile
ought not to be used, arguing that it will
dissolve by action of water. 1t will dc
80 if frost gets to it, otherwise not. II
the ground is firm. it is better to lay
horseshoe tile than sole tile. In that
case nearly all the water will rise NJ
into the channel from beneath.
\ Tho authority quoted has often laid
horseshoe tile in soil where there were
!. occasional springs in the bottom of the
r drain. 1t is best in such cases to las
! long, fat stones on either side of tn,
drain, wide enough for the tile to rest ON
!, and long enough to reach past the sprint
, to firm soil OH either side. DRAINS thu

BEARDED SILVER POLISH fowls,

critics are to be obtained--large, well de-
veloped and finely formed crests, good
heavy boards, exact and regular mark
ings and clear, pure, even ground
color.
1t is curious fact that very beautiful
clear colored Silver Polish may be bred
from Silver hens mated to q Golden cock
Mr.. l. X. Felch, authority in such mat
tiers. makes the following interesting
statements MANY are not aware of the
fact that to place a pair of these birds
on exhibition to match in general OBJ
servation of color and to appear alike
the female will be spangled with full,
round black spots, while the male will be
laced with black. A male with spangled
plumage looks very light in color as com
pared to female of like plumage."
The Poultry Yard, commenting on the
foregoing, says: while this may be
true, we should hardly advocate such a
mating for exhibition and certainly not
for breeding. We are most thoroughly
convinced that the even appearance in
color is not of SO much Importance az
the uniform character of the markings.
and while birds not matching in the
show pen is not disqualification for
the Polish, as it is for some other breeds,
we should regard pair of birds, one Of
which WAS laced and the other spangled,
no matter how well they matched, so far
as respects a superficial view, as not
matched at all. If we are 10 have span
gled birds. let us have them spangled,
and if laced, let us have them laced, and
not only one, but both of a pair. In no
other way can we secure q definite and
permanent character of the markings.n
The Silver Polish chick when first
Matched is of q smudgy gray color, and
as in the case of the Golden variety the
darker chicks make usually the best
laced fowls. The little chicks give from
their birth, therefore, strong indications
of what they will be when matured, and
one who should select the dark ones
with a large protuberance upon the
skull, covering nearly the whole of the
head, in nine cases out of ten would Sc
cure the finest exhibition birds.

THE POLISH FOWLS.

A Peculiarly of Their Crests-Mating
These Birds-rhe Silver Polish.
The Silver Polish is the exact counter
part of the Golden variety in size, mark
ings, crest, beard, etc., with the excep-
ton Of the ground color. This should
be, as the name indicates, clear silvery
white. A popularity of the crests in
both the Golden and Silver varieties is
that while in the pullets the feathers are
black laced with the ground color, in
hens, after the first moult. the feathers
are of the ground color laced with black.
In mating this variety the same rules
are to be followed as in mating the
Golden Polish, because the same prop
