The Fowls.

The question is asked time and again
if the farmer seeks to improve his poul-
try, what breeds are best for such pur-
poses?
As most farmers desire both ggs aad

breed What they should seek TO NO

as almost any breed will lay well

difficulty that farmers meet is that
really good male birds are worth more
for breeding purposes than they are
willing to pay. They prefer to use scrub
stock and they get scrub results. II
the flock which the farmer already has

Bitter Cream.

The reason for bitter cream Is that
1t is the result of keeping it too long,
OF, in other words, of having old cream.
Cream kept from SO to AZ hours is
very apt to be bitter. 1t is produced
by fermentation, which takes place at
low temperature rather than high when
the change is sufficient to produce bit
%terness. While there are other causes
for bitter crc'm, as, for instance, it.
ter weeds which the COWS may feed ON
in the pasture, yet the main cause is
old cream. Cream should be churned
within thirty-six hours of the time of
Swimming, and taken off the milk in
side of twenty-fOur hours.

Farm Notes.

Farm Notes.
The earlier gOslings are Matched after
pasturage becomes plentiful, the better.
April goslings usually thrive best and
make the largest birds.
Some roots can be grown with little
care and will be valuable in keeping
up the appeties of all the domestic
animals. Now Is the time to plan for
such crops.
Efforts to be mutually helpful will
DO much to make the community pros-
porous, and whatever tends to the
general good must be beneficial to the
individuals of whom the community ia
composed.
Don't withhold feed from the cows
Tor economy's sake, thinking they can
