The food for stock boar is not an
elaborate ration, which only tie few
may use 1t is very simple; the OPP
posite OF that mysterious complexity
which many are apt TO associate with
successful feeding. The individual
selected for stock purposes will have
learned TO eat nicely before he is
taken from the SOW. He will then
be put in quarters which are not con-
fined.
When from 10 to II weeks old.
says a Canadian writer, the follow
ing rations will cause him TO thrive
admirably if it can be secured for
him, viz: good supply of skim milk,
with a meal ration composed of one
part ground rye, seven parts green
peas and sixteen parts shorts. The
meal may with profit be stirred
into the milk and fed in the form of
Cruel. When skim milk or butter
milk cannot be had Stops from the
house may be used; where peas can
not be had substitute corn, and
where shorts cannot be obtained use
ground oats
The relative proportions of the
grain substituted will remain the
same. Along with this ration green
food should be used in summer. such
as clover, peas and, in fact. anything
in the form of vegetation in a green
and succulent condition. In winter
some green food may be supplied in
the form of roots or corn ensilage.

ferred as long as he remains tract

How TO Rai,o Turlseys.

Gather the eggs before they get
chilled, keep in not too cool nor too
warm place in the light. Turn
them over once a day, that is TO the
other side from the side they lie on.
Treated this way they will all be
likely TO hatch. Keep the eggs till
the hens all commence TO set, if il is
not too long, then set your tamest
hen with ten or fifteen eggs, and If
you want the others TO lay again you
will set the balance Of eggs under
chickens; but the turkey hens would
be the best Try TO get them all set
the same week if you can.
If your chickens have gapeJ your
turkeys will have them worse. The
best way--and it is sure way--~is to
keep them on board floor well COW
cred. Have it made SO chat if the
hen does get out the young turkeys
can't, and give them all to one tur-
key hen. Have four or five inches OF
old hayseed chat all over the floor.
If it is cool weather it must be kept
as warm as possible, and if it is warm
weather the sunlight must get in
the greater part of the day. Keep
tnem in till six weeks old, then when
you put them out choose day that
is not too hot or it will kill them.
Watch them for the first two or
three days.
Until they are quite good size
when it comes a rain | always drive
them up and put them in coop. and
keep them in coops till the dew is
dried off mornings. Until they are
six days old feed them nothing but
this: Beat up three or four eggs like
you would for custard in pan, then
add four tablespoonfuls OF sweet mix
for each egg, then set in the baker.
Don't cook too fast or let it get
brown. This makes a tough food
like custard, and after you have fed
this for six or seven days mix corn
bread with it until they get used TO
the bread, then leave the custard out
and feed them bread for awhile.
Then feed them just little smear
case, make it real wet. Change the
last two named feeds as often as YOU
can. Spread an old oil cloth or car
pet on the chat and no feed will be
wasted or get dirty. BE sure not to
give water unless it is warmed, and
! not more than what could make one
half tcaspoonful to each one, But
you can give them pint of warm,
sweet cream, and if they get it all
over them SO much the better Every
morning cut up some grass and clover
/ fine, put in also a pan of ashes and
one of gravel. If they are not shut
up and they get to the water they
will kill themselves before they viii
quit drinking. Keep on feeding the
bread and cheese ill they are big
enough to eat coru, but never feed
raw meal, and the trouble is over

Getting Ready for Harvest.

After a crop is grown IL is quite
an item to harvest at the time and in
the manner best calculated to save i'm
the best possible condition. With
some crops like hay and small grain a
very little delay will often make q
very serious difference in the quality
of the product. and of course in the
the value, as the quality with all
farm products is the measure of
value. The majority of farmers
reasonably expect to work a little
harder during harvest than at almost
any other season but even this will
not answer to always secure the best
results unless proper care is taken to
prepare aheal so that the work can be
pushed ahead and the full advantage
be secured of the extra work.
The cultivated crops should be put
in q good condition so that they will
keep growing while the harvesting
is going on. This should be done
even If 1t is necessary to hire little
extra help Generally help will cost
less before than during harvest. and
If the hiring OF extra help in cultivat-
ing will lessen the necessity of hiring
help during harvest it will be good
economy to do so.
As large part of the work of har-
vesting is done by machinery it is a
very important item to have what is
needed on hand and in good working
order in good season. If new ma
chinery has to be purchased look after
it in good time 1t is poor economy
to wait until the wheat is ripe or the
hay ready to cut before purchasing

these and other machinery on hand
then see that they are in goe5l work.
ing order Go over them and tighten
up all bolts or screws. If any of the
working parts have got rusted rub
or clean with coal-oiL 1t never pays
to start into harvesting a crop of any
kind with machine that is liable to
break down at any time. Better re-
pair before harvest begins than stop
after it has fairly commenced.
After certain stage of ripeness
has been reached a very little delay
will often lower the quality very
materially. If the binder is used for
wheat and oats be sure of The twine

OF good oil. 1t is poor economy to
use anything else but the best, and %
good supply should be- secured in

save time should be looked after and
every advantage taken to secure in
the best condition. With a good
outfit of machinery considerable
acreage of wheat and grass can DO

reasonable expense; but II done to

Shipping Only Good Fruit.

In the following article, which we clip
from the California Fruit Grower, there
may be food for thought among our
orange growers:
We have preached the doctrine Of ship
ping only good fruit to market often in
the past, and shall continue to do SO in
the future. When fruit and vegetable
growers fully realize the fact that half the
number OF specimens of first class fruit
will always bring more money and salts
faction than given lot of second rate
stuff, horticulture will have taken long
stride III advance.
At late meeting of the Illinois State
Horticultural Society, the question of
marketing melons by first grading them
carefully was considered by an able
speaker, who said:
THAT is just it, Good melons, good
sale; poor melons, poor SALE. And the
same is true of all kinds of fruit as well.
But some of our shippers said: Let us
sort our melons and send the good by
themselves, and the poor by themselves.
The poor will sell for something and will

not hurt the sale of the good, and we will
be that much ahead. A majority thought
that way and we tried it, Good melons
were selling for a good price. We COM
menced grading and shipping both good
and bad, but in separate packages. The
prices went down every day, till in ten
days good melons would not pay ex-
penses. This year our society appoint ted
an inspector, with instructions not to let
any poor melons be loaded in our asso-
citation cars, and prices kept good, even
when shipping four or five cars q day.
We would sum up about this way Get
the best seed possible, pillow deep, manure
well, cultivate good, and ship only good
melons, and fair profits may reasonably
be expected"
