A CHEAP PoULTRY-HoUsE.

Now take any rough lumber and board
up the 10 by 20 foot room on all sides,
leaving an opening on the south side
for door and one for window. The
1O-by-10-foot room should be boarded
on the east and north sides, leaving the
south side open, the wall of the larger
room making the west side.
The posts should be boarded on both
sides, but it is not necessary to have
boards that fit nicely, as the space be-
tween the outside and inside boarding
is to be packed tightly with straw or
wild grass. This will be done more
easily if the plank is not spiked to the
top of the posts until after the walls
are finished. When the walls are fin
lshed stout poles are laid across from
side to side, and the whole topped with
straw or grass, as shown in the cut.
The window may be covered with
heavy muslin which has been soaked
in linseed oil, instead of using glass, as
the muslin serves every purpose.
A small door is cut through the wall to
let the fowls go into the open shed, and
the larger door may be kept closed dur
ing cold weather.
The floor of the rooSting-rOom and
of the open shed should be kept Uttered
with straw at all times, and this
should be renewed regularly at least
twice a week. In the open shed grain
should be thrown in the straw, where
the hens can scratch for it, and they
will soon learn to stay there the whole
time ii the weather is very cold. Such
house with its walls well packed is
almost entirely frost-proof, and in the
spring it is but small task to take off
a row of boards at the bottom and re-
move the packing, and leave a cool
mouse for summer use. With good lum-
bcr and little care such house will
be quite neat in appearance. = Farm

Exceltent ,ronic for Swine.

All swine kept in confinement seem
to require certain mineral elements to
counterfeit acidity of the stomach, and
unless supplied with something of the
kind lose appetite and cease to feed as
they should. While running on pasture
and having free access to the fresh soil
they do not need it to the same extent,
but still should have it within reach.
The veteran breeder, A. C. Moore, of
Canton, ILL.,, makes it as follows: Three
bushels of wood ashes, one bushel of
charcoal pounded into small pieces, one
bushel of Stacked lime, one bushel of
salt, two pounds of Spanish brown, five
pounds of sulphur, half-pound of cop
peras and quarter-pound Of saltpeter.
Pulverize the last two thoroughly, mix
in bin or box and keep in an open
trough, where the hogs can have free
access tn If

Feeding Hogs in Cold weather,

After cold weather comes the in
creased amount of oxygen in the air
which is breathed expands the lungs
and makes the appetite better. In hot
weather the air breathed expands very
little, if at all, in the lungs, while when
the thermometer is near to zero this ex-
pansion of the air in the lungs invigor-
ates the system in every way. Stock
that gets considerable exercise does not
mind this difference so much. The
fattening steer or cow will, if allowed,
take great deal of exercise and thus
keep itself in health. A fattening hog,
on the contrary, is always lazy. When
not eating he is lying down. For this
reason the hog should be fed freely on
corn only during very cold weather,
when even the lazy animal is obliged
to inhale good deal of oxygen.-Rural
World.

EXCELLENT STOCK FEED.
An Official Bulletin Treating of Sweet
Potatoes and Their Uses.

An Official Bulletin Treating of Sweet
Potatoes and Their Uses.
The department of agriculture has
issued a bulletin treating of sweet po-
tatoes and their uses. Only in Iocali-
ties favored with transportation facili-
ties and good markets is the sweet po-
tato a sale crop. But as food for
stock the department thinks it should
be extensively grown in regions adapt
ed to it. The roots have been success
fully fed to hogs, cattle and horses.
For cattle and horses it is better to
slice the roots. OF all classes of stock
hogs can be used to consume sweet
potatoes to the best advantage, since
they do their own digging.
Sweet potato vines are usually left
to decay in the field where they are
grown. However, they may be used as
food for cattle. An analysis of very
succulent sweet potato vines, grown in
Texas, showed them to be practically
identical in chemical composition with
succulent COW pea vines, of which the
feeding value is well established.
Vines of five varieties were analysed
at the Georgia station and showed con-
SlQ6rdOl6 d1n6rencSS III cOnDOS1IlOn.
It is claimed that the vines of the So
called vineless variety, which stand up
well, can be cut with a moving ma
chine, but to permit of this it will be
necessary to cultivate nearly level.
The vines are better suited for feeding
green than for curing into hay. In
the silo they are said to become Shiny
A writer says he weighed heavy crop
of green vines, and found that the
weight was five and one-sixth tons per
acre. At the Texas Experiment sta
ton the yield of green vines was much
greater.
The sweet potato is a valuable crop.
They are worth raising for stock feed
alone, but sometimes it happens that
there is a good local demand at very
remunerative prices. The man who
has a large yield when the general crop
is poor generally gets good pay for his
efforts. Ii prices are unsatisfactory it
would pay to try the experiment of
feeding to stock.

with a Little Care 1t Can Be Made to
Look Quite Neat
As it is absolutely necessary to keep
hens comfortable in order to induce
them to produce eggs during the win
ter, everyone should endeavor to pro-
vide a warm poultry-house of some
kind; and if the plan here illustrated
is followed, one may be built very
cheaply. We know of several houses of
this kind that answer every purpose,
and anyone can build one with very lit
tie cost for material and labor.
Posts 6 inches in diameter are set
in the ground around the square to be
occupied by the house. which should be
roony, say 10 by 80 feet for so hens. The
long way of the house should be east
and west, and the door and window face
the south.
Ten feet from the east end row of
posts should be set across the square,
leaving the building divided into two
rooms, one 10 feet square and the other
10 by 20 feet. The best height for the
posts is about z feet, and after they are
set the tops should be even. Securely
spike pinch plank on top of the posts
to serve as plate to support the roof.

the eggs can be gathered without en-
tering the pens.
The alley may be separated from
the pens by q light board partition,
making the house warmer, or by a Stat
or wire partition. The pens should be
separated by a broad partition for at
least three feet in height; the remain
ing distance can be of wire netting or
Stats.
Any carpenter can build this house,
or indeed anyone handy with tools.
The frame should be of spruce, the sid
ing of pine or hemlock. If the house
is not double boarded or papered,
matched boards should be used for COW
ering. The better way is to board up
with hemIock, cover this with tarred
paper of Neponset red roofing paper,
and then clapboard. But the clap
boards can be omitted if one doesn't
care for appearances.

Much of our clover and alfalfa hay is
lost by poor stacking and by exposure
to the elements during the winter. A
musty fodder, injurious to horses, re-
suits. My plan is to house the hay,
and have it dry and sweet when
stacked. The accompanying illustra-
ton represents a barn constructed of
baled straw, in which hay can be kept
perfectly. This is a good use to make
of straw that otherwise would be
wasted. The foundation consists of
poles laid on proper stringers, little
above the ground. Make this any de-
sired size. Then begin building the
walls by laying the bales in courses,
much as you would brick wall. Fas-
ten these bales together with wooden
pins 10 inches long; put in the stay

Mr.. Flint says: 1t is a good permanent
grass, standing our climate as well as
any other, and consequently well suit
ed to our pastures, in which it should be
fed close; for if allowed to grow up to
seed the cattle refuse it; and this seems
to show that it is not so much relished

DEEP MILKING EWES.
Suggestions as to the Raising of Health
n

Suggestions as to the Raising of Healthy
Flock Of Sheep.
Now and then you will see among the
enumerated good qualities of particu-
lar breed of sheep, that the ewes are
deep mixers and good mothers. In
looking over the flock of breeding ewes
with lamb at foot, the most casual OBJ
server must have noticed that some
lambs showed the effects of much better
care than others; that certain ewes
with twin lambs were doing better by
them than many Of their companions
who had but a single lamb. The ewes
may have been of the same age, and the
lambs may have been dropped about the
same date, and the feed and all other
conditions may have been the same,
Notwithstanding the above results.
What, then, is the cause of this differ
ence in the lambs? Much, very much
CT it is due to the fact that the one eve
is the better mixer, and as the yielding
of milk is a distinctive maternal quail
ity, it must necessarily follow that she
is better mother. While it is good
thing and correct practice to teach
the lambs to eat grain at the earliest
possible moment, the great first start
and impetus to growth must come from
that most natural of all foods-milk,
and for this purpose that of the mother
is superior to all others.
These things being true, says Wool
Markets and Sheep, it would seem the
most natural thing to do to improve the
milking qualities of the breeding ewes.
There are several ways in which this
might be done, but for the man who is
in possession CT the average flock of
sheep there seems at present no better
means at hand than careful selection
and development by the feeding of
foods especially adapted to the produc-
ton of milk. We know that many men
will feel disposed to decry such teach
ing, and so do many so-called dairymen,
but they are not the ones who are MAX
ing money out of the business of keep
ing cows. Some men never pay any at
tention to the ewes udder even in wean-
ing time, with the result that much suf-
fering, and not unfrequently serious
loss, follows.
We wish to impress upon the minds of
our readers that this is not an idle
theory, and that it is perfectly plausi-
bic to increase the milking qualities of
your ewes as those of your. cows, and
that while the profits may not be so
great they are still worthy of grave con-
sideration. If you should have num-
Der of ewes in the flock that yearly pro-
duce and rear extra lambs note if they
are not superior mixers, and in such
an event save for the breeding flock the
female lambs from all such mothers,
and we prophesy that in the end the re-
suits of such selections will greatly sur
prise you

WAIT A LITTLE WHILE.

Reasons why Farmers Would Do Wen to
Crib Their Corn.
We are well aware that it is next to
impracticable to give the above advice
and expect every corn grower to act
upon it. In many of the corn-growing
states farmers will be compelled to
market their crops at once in order to
raise money for current expenses.
Then there is a too prevailing senti-
nlent that all crops should be sold just
as soon as they are marketable. But
the farmer who now puts his corn into
good cribs will surely profit by it. We
would even advise that part of the crop
be sold and crib material purchased.
Corn is now selling, on contract,
through the western states at from 10
to Is cents bushel. 1t is sure to go
to 25 cents within year, and no farm
er, unless urgent necessities demand
it, should let bushel go from his farm.
Il commission man of Chicago takes
this view of the situation: Il expect
to crib this year from 100000 to p
100000 bushels of corn. I find that in
the section where the corn is the very
finest, the price is about IL cents per
bushel. There have been only three
years since 1881 in which corn has
Jailed to sell at so cents in Chicago. A
great many of our customers are going
in with US, and we will crib the corn
and hold it until we get profit, no mat
ter how long that is. In 1891, when
corn was so plentiful, the price in Kan
sas was 10 and IL cents per bushel, and
farmers were burning it for fuel. Be
fore that crop year ended corn was sell
ing in Chicago at 81 cents. I have never
seen, in my 80 years experience, two
years of liberal rainfall in the west. /
expect a dry season next year, and
think higher prices for corn will come
with it. If they do not come we will
wait until they do."-Prairie Farmer.
