Fruit Growing on the Farm.

state board of agriculture, read a pa

the following is an extract:

past experience, with the facilities of
this day for obtaining fruit. the farm
er is without excuse that neglects to
plant all kinds. at least sufficient to
give an abundant supply for the use
of the home. We think there is
profit in fruit raising.
We would not advise every man to
plant what is called a commercial or
chard, although large orchards in
many parts of the state have been
good investments.

taste and skill for fruit growing,

Poultry surroundings.


In entering into tie poultry bust
ness, it is always necessary to spend
some money in bindings. yards,
coops and general surroundings. and
in my experience l have found that
there are generally two ways that
beginners go at this work. One has
very little capital to spare, and he
builds as little as possible. and
makes his calculations so small that
he is always cramped for room. AS
the time comes when his business
must expand, he finds that it is i'm
possible to increase his buildings in
size, but must destroy them and be-
gin all over again The other class
of beginners have fair amount of
capital to spend, and they put it all
in stock and buildings at the very
beginning. Every thing is put up in
good style and on large scale. In
short time he is SO cramped for
capital that he is unable to conduct
his business, and he must reduce it in
size, while a great many OF the build
ings must lie idle.
Now the successful beginner steers
clear of both of these extremes. He
builds at first on q small scale. but
the whole work is planned on u
larger scale. That is, he calculates
that in the course of five or ten years
his business will increase tenfold. and
hence he will need just ten times as
much room az at the start. The land
| for his poultry farm is consequently
selected in localities Wherc there is
room for expansion. His buildings
and yards are so constructed that ad-
ditions can be put to them without
| interfering with the original ones,
and in this way his whole business is
increased and his yards and buildings
extended. He has planned before
| hand just for this expansion, and
every year he adds something to it.
The plan OF q poultry yard should
be made out carefully on paper be-
| forehand, says the American Cultiva-
tor. Select farm of a number of
acres in size, and divide it up equal
| ly into yards. In the center of this
leave place for the main building,
and arrange four separate yards
around it on all sides. In each yard
have the special roosting house,
coops and feeding and drinking
places. From forty to sixty birds
should be kept in each yard, and
not more than that number In
drawing the design, leave room for
a good sized footpath running from
the main building out to the ends of
the farm. These paths must inter-
sect O: ners, so that it will be an easy
walk from any yard to the main
building.
All of this being arranged. build
part of the main building in such q
way that its size can be increased at
any time by additions. AS the busi-
ness increases more room will be
needed here. Furnish. as it were. the
first four yards nearest the main
building. This will be all required
at the start. Then each year tit up
one or two more yards. with their
! buildings, extending the work grad
ually from the central point out
toward the four sides. The growth
Cf tie business, then, will be regular,
and no capital will be wasted the
beginning. nor will one ever be
cramped for room when expansion
of the business demands more yards
and buildings.
