remedies for diarrhoea.
1t is only in exceptional cases
that pullets should be sold.
Sunhower seeds make good food
for the hens while melting.
In nearly all cases gapes is caus-
ed by feeding in filthy places.
Young fowls that are being kept
for growth should never be overfed.
Any stimulant fed too plentiful
ly and persistently soon loses its
effect.
A good sprinkling of fresh earth
is one of the best materials to keep
down bad odors.
Red pepper is only temporary
stimulant, and increases the appe-
tite for a short time only.
Oily foods should not be fed to
laying hens, except in cold weather
or when they are melting.
Healthy fowls pick up their food
quickly and relish it. When they
do not something is wrong.
There is no reason for keeping
and feeding old boosters that will
not be wanted for next season.
Sell off the surplus cockerels and
late-hatched pullets. The latter
will not lay until late in the Spring.
Sunfower seed and oil meal can
be fed to good advantage in small
quantities during the melting sea.
son.
Unless it is necessary it is rarely
good economy to market small
chickens late in the Summer or
early in the Fall.
Give them chance and the
ducks and geese will soon clean up
the purslane in the garden; they
are very fond of it.
No matter what breed is select
ed, vigor and activity should always
be considered. An overgrown, fat
fowl is a nuisance.
All beginners in poultry keeping
are advised to begin with a few
fowls, increasing the number as they
learn how to handle them.
When any considerable number
of poultry is to be wintered it will
pay to grow a crop of turnips es-
pecially to take the place of green
food during the Winter.
Ground oats and barley meal
make a good meal for ducks; give
them whole corn at night. Ducks
need some bulky food along with
their grain to thrive well.
Now is the time to build poult-
ry-house. The principal thing is
to have it dry, warm and conven-
lent. There is no need to make it
expensive, as a cheap house will
answer all practical purposes.
When it can be done convenient
ly, it will be a good plan to SOW a
patch of rye close to the poultry
house for Fall and Winter pastur-
age. The fowls will pick over it
every day that the weather will
permit.
1t is often the case that hens will
become broody late in the Summer,
but it is rarely a good plan to allow
them to sit. Late Matched chick
ems rarely pay for the trouble of
raising them. Sometimes, when a
speciality is made of raising them,
and arrangements are made for
keeping them properly, they will
prove profitable as early broil4rs.

Early Lambs for Market.

In localities convenient to mark
ct the breeding and raising of early
lambs for market can generally be
made profitable.
Now is the time the breeding
should be looked after. The ewes
should be selected out, taking care
to select only those of good size
and form, young, thrifty and vigor-
GUS. The ram should always be
thoroughbred, well matured, Of
good size and form and vigorous
You cannot add to an animals con-
stitutional vigor, but good treat
ment will maintain it and careful
selection and mating will transmit
it. Vigor and thrift are important
with all animals, especially those
that are intended for early market.
The breeding is the starting point
and all reasonable care should be
taken to start right. Have the
breeding animals in good, thrifty
condition. Generally ewes that
have good pasture will not require
extra feeding, but if the pasturage
is scant it will be advisable to feed
q little oilmeal and bran, or mid
.dlings and bran, or ground oats if
a dry grain feed is considered neces-
.sary. But in most cases corn can
be cut off and fed, or the second
crop of clover can be fed in addition
to pasturage if necessary.
On the average farms where only
q small number of ewes are to be
bred very good plan is to select
out the ewes to be bred and turn
them into the pasture with the rams
to themselves. When one or two
rams, however, are to serve large
number of ewes, a single service
system should be followed, confin-
ing the ram to a small lot or stable,
feeding literally and turning in one
eve at time and permitting only
one service.
Another item that can be looked
after to good advantage now is the
shelter. On most farms there is
more time to look after this now
than there will be later. While it
is advisable to keep sheep out on
the pastures as long as the weather
will permit, it is never good econo-
my to allow them to be exposed to
cold rains or storms. This is espec-
tally the case with the breeding
ewes. The principal point in ar
ranging the shelter is to have it
convenient, dry and comfortable.
Sheep will keep thriftier and health
Ter if they have dry quarters. Usu-
ally bran, middlings and oilmeal
to use with the roughness can be
had at lower price now than later,
and for this reason it is often good
economy to buy now what will be
needed for the winter and store it
away where it will keep dry.

Considering their freedom from
disease and their willingness to

THE CITY ALL RIGHT.
Little Falls Growth Almost Phe-
no menal The Country too Rich
For Financial Crisis.

Geo. w. Thayer, of Rochester, N.
Y. who is spending a few days in the
city, expressed himself to TRAN
scRIHT reporter today as being well
pleased with the growth of Little
Falls and the business outlook here.
He visited the city last fall and since
that time notices great improvement
These who live here all the time, he
says, hardly realize the improvements
that are taking place. In less than
five years about two millions of
dollars have been expended here and
the population has doubled twice. /
doubt whether there is another city
in this whole country that can show
such rapidity OF growth in wealth
and population. There is one COM
pany that has 900 men upon it's pay
roll not to speak of the numerous
other industries. Little Falls has
men OF great energy and determina-
ton of purpose, and it cannot do
otherwise than succeed.
In regard to the financial outlook
in the contry, Mr.. Player expressed
himself about as follows:
'There is not dearth of money in
the country. We never had such a
large volume of circulating medium
as today. There is rather a dearth
OF confidence and money is being
withheld from estment There has
been a great era OF prosperity and
speculation and some have extended
themselves perhapsa little too much,
but l do MT think this lack of con-
fidence will last long. The country
is too rich and has too many
resources to admit of a financial
crisis. The present is one of regular
periods of depression for which il is
perhaps difficult to attribute a
reason. The proper handling OF he
silver question is puzzling the wi sest
men we have, but as said befO e
do not Think q financial crisis now is
probable orhardly possible.'

THE DOGGONED DOGS.
Shonld They Be Annihilated, or Do
They Conduce to the Comfort and
Protection of Man?

What part does the dog play in the
present civilization, or is he q relic of
barbarisn, for W hich the present and
future. civilizations have no use?
One hears in these days much COM
plant against the dog. This is not
only in Little Falls, but the news
papers are full of it. In ST. Cloud
recently I. resident was assessed ST.
500 in court because Of damage done
by his dog. And only q few days
ago in the same city another dog is
reported to have horribly mutilated
a child The mad-dog scare is com
mon to most every place. And here
a large number Of citizens petition to
have dogs prohibited from running
at all on the streets, whether licensed
or unlicensed.
In much of our literature the dog
has been called a noble animal, the
friend of man. The stories Of his
heroic devotion to man in saving
him from the perils of the sea or
storm are numerous and th1lling
In romance and in real life too he has
figured cOnspicuOusly as the pro-
tector OF children. But, says, the
modern dog-hater, he has killed
more people than he has saved.
And if he doesn't kill them outright.
he is a great destroyer Of nerve It's
sue. He frightcns our horses and
those who are being drawn by them.
He shattersss.the nerves OF women
and children and annOys everybody.
Perhaps civilization is getting too
highly developed and sensitive to
longer endure the dog. In less civil
| lied and primitive times the dog has
hunted wild beasts and destroyed the
smaller and pestiferous animals, and
il he We're annihilated today they
might still grow numerous again
and greatly annoy civilization. 1t
has been supposed that he aided in
keeping out Il class of animals that
would otherwise be great plaques to
man. Most all OF the smaller species
OF animals, not domesticated, have
preyed upon man and his Industries,
but the dog has sbeen called the es-
pecially friend of man and protect
or from the devastations of other
animals.
But one man says there are no
good doggies but dead dogs, an
other that the dog is all right in his
place, but what is his sphere? The
dog lacks culture; that's true He
will sometimes show his animal pro.
pensities, but probably civilization
has yet uses fer the dog and will not
consent to his annihila ton, however
much it may be desired to restrict and
control him and his DrOpensities.
