Fifty Chickens Versus One Cow.

An interesting discussion has been
going on regarding the relative profit to
be derived from a given number of
chickens and given number of COWS.
While one fancier declares that fifteen
hens are more valuable than the average
cow, stout vaccine partisan swears by
the beard of the prophet that he can
make more money from one cow than
any man can from one hundred hens.
The results of experiments made under
varying conditions are now uSful
One farmer made test with fifty
chickens and one cow, and gives the
result as follows:-Value of milk sold
from one cow, $l44.1O; income from
fifty hens, mostly for eggs sold, $3.50 81.
The cost of keeping the cow was given
at $50, while the maintenance of the
hens cost $50, and it was estimated that
the value of the manure was equal for
both The former was greatly in favor
of the hens in the matter of le>sened
labor, of care and attention, the COW
requiring more time and far less agreea-
BILE labor. Numerous other exeriments
reported, ifs Unmarried, would probably
result in favor of the hen,if taken in the
ratio of fifty to one.
The chief value of the controversy has
been to show that no dairy farmer
should be without fair ratio of poultry,
and no poultry raiser should fail in
maintaining a proper number of COWS.
For small, irrigated farms intensively
cultivated, nothing is better able to
contribute to the family needs than
cows and poultry. AS many of each
only should be kept, however, as may

red caruncles of the head and neck, and
the pinkish feet and shanks, present a
strikingly handsome bird that is not
likely to fail to captivate the woman
who has an eye for the beautiful. They
are not related to the White Hollands,

to purchase two sittings of eggs from
reliable dealer. These should be placed
preferably under common chicken hens
which are known to be good sitters. AS
soon as they are Matched, the mother
hen should be confined in a rather close
and well sheltered pen which will allow
free egress and ingress to the baby tur-
keys. They should be fed frequently
and bountifully upon scraps from the
table, moistened in skinned or sour
milk, and mixed with finely chopped on,
ions. The heads and necks should be
examined carefully every few days, for
the large grey lice, which are fatal to
young turkeys. The most effectual
remedy is to thoroughly oil the head and
neck with pure melted leaf lard. To
prevent diarrhma, they should be given,
twice week, heaping teaspoonful of
epson salts, mixed with the morning
mash, and followed the next meal by a
heaping tablespoonful of powdered
brick given in the food. In two weeks
time the hen may be allowed to take the
brood on the run on bright, sunny days.
and after the first month, she may be
given perfect freedom. They may then
be given, in addition to the other food,
plenty of cracked wheat, and will require
but little further attention.
Expensive poultry houses are not de-
sirable for turkeys, as they thrive much
better if they are allowed to rooSt in the
open air as soon as weaned.
An early hatch is always desirable,
and to secure this, orders for eggs should
be sent to the dealer without delay.
1t is not true that the baby turkeys
require greater care than young chick
ems, but it is necessary for them to have
different management and food. If
properly fed and managed, the average
mortality among turkeys will be less
than that of chickens Smith. in

Poultry Keeping for Women.

Poultry Keeping Tor women.
Perhaps the most weighty reason
which recon mends poultry keeping to
the woman who is seeking means of
support, is its adaptability to all sorts
and conditions of women. 1t is one of
the few avocations for women in which
neither "book learning" nor much CAPT
tai are essential. The untutored coun-
try lass may succeed a. well as the proud
owner of diploma from Vassar, and
the 'posr widow" with her unite" iu-
diclously invested, may eventually earn
as large an income as she who has her
thousands with which to start the bust
ness
Still another advantage is that a
plucky woman with good health may
earn more ''pin money! than she needs,
keeping pen of pure bred poultry and
still find no difficulty in attending to her
domestic duties. though she may be the
mother of half dozen young children.
However, | do not wish to be mis-
leading, and in enumerating it's advan-
tages, do not desire to make the inn
preston that the business is mere tri-
file to learn or a sinecure to practic No
profitable business can be either. While
[ consider poultry keeping too pleasant
and interesting to be termed arduous,
still would not advise lazy woman to
undertake it. Patience, diligence and
watChful care are just as necessary in
this as in any other remunerAtive voca-
tion But 1T certainly does not require
a mountain of work to properly care for
few pens of pure bred fowls; and the
busiest woman has few spare moments
while waiting for one thing or another
during the day, which, taken In all,
seem to amount to little, but if spent in
this way, will prove very profitable.
Those who contemplate keeping poul-
try, should in the beginning, carefully
guard against the soyllA and chary bdis,
upon which so many poultry keepers
have been wrecked, namely, buying
cheap stock, and keeping too many va
rieties of poultry.
None but the best pure bred fowls are
profitable, and two pens of different
breeds are ample for the beginner, and
these should be bred exclusively for eggs
until the proper care and management
of them is thoroughly understood.
In making a select on from the differ
ent classes or bre dis of poultry, we must
be governed by our circumstances. en-
vironments and individual tastes. My
own preference is for the New Nam
