more bulky food. l can not always

ties. In that case use hot water to

My colony Of small houses scattered
! about over the farm and connected by
a telegraph wire causes lots of COM
ment from passers-by. My man over
heard the conversation of four men the
other day as they they were driving by
in carriage. One of them seemed to
be spokesman, and was explaining to
the rest that the wire was for the pur-
pose of conveying the eggs down to
the house. His companion happening
to spy one of the white porcelain insu-
| lators which break the circuit over each
building in order to send the current
down into the buildings, suddenly
grasped the others arm in great excite
ment: "Great Scott - said he, ''if

But the malt sprouts used are also
rich in nitrogen, for while casein has six
teen per cent. of this element in it,
the sprouts have about five per cent.
and thus this mixture is, or should be,
excellent for fowls producing eggs, and
Mr.. Mapes-which is the poultryman's
name-finds it so to be.
Mr.. Mapes is a mechanical genius,
too; and it requires genius-that is,
man who has his wits about him-:to
succeed in this business. He has an
automatic nest, which has self-closing
and opening door, and when the hen
goes on the front of the box the door
opens, as if to say, Howdy, Biddy ;
walk in,' and when Biddy walks in
the door closes and prevents any
other fowl from entering; then when
the hen gets off the nest, the door opens
and lets her out and closes again after
her. This kind of nest has entirely
prevented the loss Of eggs by idle hens
eating them.
Mr.. Mapes also tells how last July,
when eggs were selling at thirteen
cents dozen, he packed away several
barrels Of them in common salt, and
sold them in October for twenty-five
cents a dozen. The precaution was
taken to put away the eggs the same
day they were laid.
January 25th, my first brood of
chickens for the season LETT the nest
with the hen. There were fifteen eggs
under her and fifteen little fuzzy chicks
filled the nest. They were put into
a glazed coop in sunny place, and
to-day two weeks after, they are all
safe and lively taking their three meals
a day of corn and wheat ground to-
gether and wetted into a thick paste
with warm water. They have sweet
warm milk to drink. It is very rarely
that have lost a chick after it has
become two weeks old. I am feeding
pea-vine clover to my COWS and horses,
and as there is good deal of seed in
the flowers, which were full blossomed
when the hay was cut, the dust from
the floor of the NOW makes an excel
lent litter for the poultry house. The
seed is eagerly picked out by the chicks,
and they have warm, dry bed to
nestle in and lots of exercise to scratch
for the seeds.

A Few Suggestions.
BY DAN H. STEWART.

Do not build your poultry house so
low that you must stoop while you are
in it to protect the root; it is poor
economy. You may save a few feet
of lumber, but you will not save your
head or back. 1t will require as much
roof to cover low house as it will for
one that you can stand up in, and the
pleasure of being able to care for your
fowls without being in danger Of knock-
your brains out is worth far more than
all the lumber you would save by build
ing low.
When building, use plenty of tarred
paper it is cheaper than cold wind,
and will do your fowls more good. Put
it under the shingles as great deal of
cold comes in through the roof; on the
sides, and take as much pains in doing
it as you would in hanging wall paper.
Use lath to hold it on. Put them on
the edges and in the middle and
nail them solid. Don't leave a place
for the cold to come through, for the
fowls have been known to have roup
from the effects of the wind that came
in through nail hole.
Do not put ventilator on the poul-
try house; it will be cold enough with
out it. If you keep the building clean,
The birds will get all the fresh air they
need without it. More fowls die from
too much fresh air in the winter than
from not enough. II the house is too
warm you can leave the door or a win
dow open.
Do not use too much glass i'll the
poultry house, unless you have shutters
to close over it. Although glass makes
a house nice and warm on sunny day,
in the winter, when night comes, it is
much too cold. 1t is best to have
shutters and close them in stormy
weather and on cold nights.

Raising Turkeys.

Correspondence Chicago Breeders Gazette.
Referring to the question of the care
of young turkeys, recently discussed in
the Gazette, perhaps the following
letter received by me from Mr.. Byron
E. Smith, of Illinois, may be ofinterest
and value. Mr.. Smith tells me that
he makes his gobblers weigh thirty-two
pounds and his hens seventeen pounds
at seven months old, and this is how
he does it:
We ordered what we considered the
very best stock of eggs and set them
under quiet chicken hens. When Matched
we fed them table scraps; corn-bread,
milk, cottage cheese, and such other
things as convenient. They were care
fully cooped and kept dry After they
were old enough to show the red they
were let run in the orchard and barn
lots and were fed wheat, barley, oats,
rye, millet seed, corn, and table scraps.
They had all the milk they could drink
at all times up to January. The mixed
feed and the very great variety, together
with the milk, is what we lay the devel-
opment to, and we expect to continue
along this line. We do not consider
them hard to raise. Ny wife had the
care OF them and hers is the praise.
Let me add that the above is about
as near our plan as l can give it. The
main points are, first, to keep them
in strictly clean quarters, with plenty
Of fresh air second, keep them dry
lido not let them even get damp until
six weeks old, and third, do not over
feed. Feed often and just what they
will clean up. Lastly, buy eggs only
from mature birds.

think I had as good luck as anybody
I ever saw. It may be essential to
cook their food, but don't believe it,
for I have cooked for them several
years and had the best luck last year
that ever had.
I have seventy-two now, lost three
in Matching and only had seventy-nine
eggs setting. always use cotton seed
for my nests, because I think they
hatch better. I try to be careful about
| lice. Oil of peneroyal is the best thing
that ever used to keep off lice. Use
one teaspoonful to a cup of lard, and
when the turkey gnats come and begin
| to draw the blood from their little
threats. add coal oil and sulphur to
my lard and peneroyal and put it in
saucer, and when feed them while
they are huddled together, gently rub
it over their backs, not putting too
much, because grease will kill young
fowls. If it is put all over them by
rubbing it on their backs, they rub
against one another and get it on their
necks. never allow them to come in
the yard with my chickens. think the
gnat, and allowing them to run among
the chickens, is the greatest cause Of
most people not raising any. put
my hens in the garden, when 1 take
them off and they usually stay in there
till they fly out which is about ten days
after they hatch, they never hunt any
thing unless it is a nice wallowing
place. MRS. S. A. BACHELOR.
