The Leghorns are AN Italian breed OF
fowls. The Plymouth Rocks are purely
American and breed for Americans to
be proud Of.
Ii cannot be said too early or often;
Don't turn your stock upon the pastures
before the grass is well set and the ground
hardened. Ii is ruin even in June to turn
animals upon pastures Immediately after
a rain. Every hoOf leaves its imprint
upon the soft ground and rut washes
in the place or it packs so hard that the
grass is killed. If the animals are allowed
tonip the tender, watery grass before it is
well started, your pastures will be when
you most need them as barren and dry
as the desert of Sahara.
If you find your dry feed running short
this spring and summer, take warning
and put up more next fall.
After you turn the cattle upon the
pasture do not let them wear paths in
the ground any more than you can help.
Cowpaths wash into ruts and hollows.
If you find "a path worn by the cows
feet to the point where the earth begins
to wash or pack, put distractions in it
so that the animals must walk around.
Brush or stones do not look pretty in a
field, but if you put them in worn pas
ture path the place will in a year be COW
cred with beautiful growth of grass.

The honey needs to be put in small
cases and in attractive form. Inferior
honey packed in neat boxes will sell bet
ter than the superior grades packed in
large. clumsy packages The consumers
are tending more and more toward the
small packed arrangement for honey
and the large old fashioned boxes are
now nearly obsolete. The honey must
be gathered as soon as the season closes
and be shipped at once to the market.
The early stock always commands the
best prices, for later the glut will begin
and prices will drop immediately.
When the white honey season is over
take the nectar from the hive and place
it in room where the temperature is
kept to about 9s degrees u will ripen
in such place as well as in the hive,
and there will be less loss. Honey left
in the hive TO ripen often gets stained
and darkened by the bees, who begin 70

sections should he made as clean as pos

section is made clean and stamped with
the owners name, II is sure TO command
a good price. II there is no good market
for it at the stores, attempt TO retail it
to customers that can be reached by

of their product. Because honey was
high or low last season does not make il
so the present one. The prices quoted III

THE BRONZE TURKEY.
Early Hatched Turkeys will Weigh FIT
teen Pounds by Thanksgiving.

teen Pounds by Thanksgiving.
The bronze turkey heads the list OF
our improved varieties. OF late years it
has supplanted the smaller kinds on ac-
count of its great size, hardness, rich
ness of plumage and adaptation to the
farm. 1t is purely an American breed.
The bronze turkey varies the least from
the wild breed in respect to color and is
decided Improvement upon il both in
size and luster of plumage. Nothing
can exceed the brilliant and varied tints
of color of bronze gobbler in his Sec
ond year. They permeate through tho
rich dark bronze, assimilating to that of
FURNISHED gold in the sunlight and fairly
rivaling the famed Impeyan pheasant in
richness and luster.
When bred pure and from choice
strains. these birds attain heavy weights.
They are the largest of the poultry race
and acclimated to our cold and change
able climate. They are well adapted for
farmers and suburban residents who
have plenty of range, being more profit
able when they can roam through the
meadows. stubbles and groves and pro
cure large share of their living. II
Matched early and properly cared for and
fed, they will average from 12 to IL
pounds at THANKSGIVING. At maturity
they often reach 81 pounds and more,
but from 20 To - pounds may be taken
as a fair average. \ , or 3-year-old
bronze gobbler crossed on the common
turkey will add several pounds 10 the
L & E o II -
year. The excess of weight i'm an ordi-
nary brood would pay the first cost of
the sire and leave an improved stock for
further profit.
The custom of keeping up Thanksgiv-
ing and other winter holidays is an in.
centive for raising this American bird.
The Americans do not take to goose
flesh so kindly as the Europeans. Every
farmer and suburban resident outside of
crowded localities can raise turkeys. 1t
is not very difficult if one observes three
equisites-namely. healthy and robust
stock for breeders, proper food for the
young birds and security from wet and
dampness until they show red about the
head
The young brood should be placed with
the mother in a large. roomy coop, sale
from rain and cold winds, on e knoll or
elevated spot facing the south. The
grass and weeds around the coop should
be cut close. Two boards placed edge
wise and stalied each side will serve for
a temporary fence. Chaff. dry leaves or
cut straw should always be at the bot
tom of the coop 10 prevent the poults
resting on the damp ground. Hard boil
ell egg and stale bread crumbs mixed,
with a little sweet milk added at first;
baked oatmeal or middlings and oat-
meal mixed. with pinch Of sulphur
mixed in the food twice n week; cut on
ions and dandelions mixed with the food,
cottage cheese. milk, corn cake and
brown bread, cracked wheat and millet.
The meal should be baked until the birds
get good start, and he sure TO prevent
them from getting wet or damp till they
