OF EXPANSION.
Planning the Yards-roo Much Work

Emulsion for Ticks and Lice-Farm
Notes and Home Hints.


In entering into the poultry bust
ness, it is always necessary to spend
some money in buildings. yards,
coops and general surroundings, and
in my experience | 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 a fair amount of
capital to spend, and they put it all
in stock and buildings at the very
beginning. Everything is put up in
good style and on large scale. In
a 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 eS
builds at first on sma
the whole work is pl;
larger scale. That is,
that in the course of five
his business will increase
hence he will need just
much room as at the stai
for his poultry farm is consequently
selected in localities where 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 20 it.
The plan of 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 equa.
ly into yards. In the center of this
leave a 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 r. eding and drinking
places Fror forty to sixty birds
should be III 1t 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 others, 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 a
way that its size can be increased at
any time by additions As the bust
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 fit up
one or two more yards, with their
buildings, extending the work grad
ually from the central Doint out
toward the four sides. IT

Fruit Growing on the Farm.

We believe where a man has the
taste and skill for fruit growing,

that more money can be made with
forty acres planted to fruit than on
100 acres planted to grain. There is
a good profit in raising apples at
81. % per barrel. and Concord grapes
can be raised at profit at two and
one-half cents per pound.
We think there ought to be on
every eighty-acre farm and every
l60-acre farm at least two acres in
small fruits and grapes, twenty-five
cherry trees, from 800 to 500 apple
trees, from twenty-five to fifty pear
trees and from 30 to 100 peach trees.
A we'll cared for orchard is an orna-
ment to the farm.
The peach tree ought not to be
discarded because it so often fails.

pay well for the planting. Since

should Butter BE washeds

The Dairy. an English journal, is
now engaged in discussing the ad-
vantages OF washed and unwaShed
butter. There little doubt that
too much washing injuries the flavor.
and the Danish butter makers whose
product controls the English market
get all the milk from butter by re-
peated pressure 1t requires much
work, while getting rid of the butter
milk by washing is comparatively an
easy matter. One OF the best butter
makers we ever knew made butter
that would keep unchanged through
the year, ard she never used water
1t was her oft expressed belief that
the practice OF washing was due to
unwillingness to perform the work
that other ways of Kidding butter of
its milk required. In this country
there are few now who do not wash
butter. Most of them consider it
essential in fitting it for long keep
ing. The contrary opinion by many
English dairymen will perhaps set
our own butter makers to thinking.

PECULIARITIES OF ANIMALS.
Why Elephants Necks Are short and Why
Cats Have Whiskers-


The reason of the shortness of the
elephants neck is that the head of the
animal is so heavy that were it placed
at the end of a neck of a length pro-
portionate to the dimensions of that
organ in other animals. an almost in
calculab bic amount of muscular force
would be necessary to elevate and sus-
tain it. The almost total absence of a
neck obviates the difficulty and the
trunk serves as a substitute. The uses
and advantages of long neck, pecu-
liarly exemplifed in the giraffe, which
contains only the same number of YER
tebral articulations as in the elephant,
are in the latter supplied by the trunk
or probOscis, by which he is enabled to
carry food to his mouth and To drink by
suction This curious organ contains
vast number of mu scles variously inter-
laced. is extremely flexible, endowed
with the most exquisite sensibility and
the utmost diversity of motion, and
compensates amply for the absence of
long neck.
There is so much variety II the heads
of monkeys that comparison OF them
with those of man cannot very easily
be made, but this comparison may be
made with the higher apes, such as the
gorilla and chimpanzee which ap-
proach nearest in their struct-
ure to ourselves In the gorilla the
thumb is short and does not reach
much beyond the bottom of the first
Joint of the forefnger. II is very re-
stricted in its movements, and the ami
NAL can neither twiddle its thumbs nor
turn them around till the tips describe
a circle. The web between the fingers
reaches to the beginning of the second
joint the fingers taper to the tips, and
there is a callosity, or pad. on the
knuckles on which the animal rests
when walking on all tours In man
the thumb reaches to the top of the
first Joint of the forefnger Man can
''twiddle" his thumb. so that the tip
will describe a circle; and he can touch
the tips of all his fingers with it; the
web between the fingers does not ex-
tend beyond the base of the first joint,
and there are no pads on the knuckles.
The bones in the hand of man and in
that of the gorilla are the same in
number and general form But the
thumbs of the monkey have no separ-
ate fiexor or bending muscle, as those
of men have This is why a monkey al
ways bends his thumb with his fingers
and never puts his thumb round an OBJ
ject which he grasps, but always keeps
it on the same side as his fingers
The whiskers of cats and of the cat
tribe are exceedingly sensitive, en-
abling them. when seizing their prey in
the dark, to feel its position more
acutely. These hairs are supplied
through their roots with branches of
the same nerves that give sensibility
TO the lips and that in insects supply
their ''feelers-"-St Louis Poet-Dis-
