Tho Size OF Poultry FlOCks.

Large fochs Of poultry are kept as
successfully small ones. provided
the conditions under which they are
kept are the same But they must
have q proportionatc amount of space
and of care. To obtain the latter they
must hc divided up into families and
become individuals instead Of aggrega-
tions This is cSscnt ial that the eye of
the master may see to the welfare of
each, and in any cases of lice or disease
may he quick to detect the trouble and
apply the remedy. This is more reSld-
lily and cheaply done in the early
stages, and when but few have been
exposed to its communicating influence.
Where these points are properly con-
Sidcrcd, large numbers of birds can be
handled successfully, but dire failure
is certain to await the who at
teInpts to ignore them. 1t has been
proved over and over again that poul-
try. like most other living things, can
not stand overcrowdiug, and that indi-
vidual attention is as necessary 70

we are Just that much better off. The
accompanying plan shows my method
of setting an orchard which will in
crease the number of trees one-third
and still give ample room for hauling

remove every other one, and you Will
still have many as by planting As feet
apart in squares, and besides you will
have had IL years use of the trees
removed. have given much observa-
ton to and had some experience in
this matter, SO if I were to plant so
orchards I would follow the scheme
above outlined. My advice to every
young man is, plant in this manner.
cultivate we'll for five or six years,
branch the trees low. give them an an
nual topdressing and the orchard will
pay, other things being equal.-C. r.

HARD COUNTRY ROADS.
Until we Have Them Public Prosperity
lsounu Suffcr.

Until We Have Then, Public Prosperity
Is Bound to suffer.
At this time of the year VIC can APP
Preciate good roads fully, and it is to
be regretted that we forget how incon-
venient bad roads are as soon as the
roads that are bad get good in the
spring. few weeks ago We had occa-
sion to drive four miles into the cOun-
try in northern Ohio, where the roads
get friyhtfully bad on occasion, and
although we had 4 fairly good team
and a light buggy. the best time We
could make was to drive the four miles
in an hour and n half. When we ar
rived at our destination the team
showed the effects OF the hard drive
very plainly, though they had not been
driven off Il walk. A week ago, in
southern Ohio. VIC saw Il tea IN trottlnE
along hitchcd to a wagon on which
was 1900 pounds of hay. They have
good roads in southern Ohio, or rather
southwestern Ohio, and they derive
the benefit from them. They cost Il
tidy sum to make. but now that they
arc made the people benefited would
not return to the burbarouS mud roads
of former years for any con~idcra ton.
The cOStlieSt item of expense to the
farmers Of this country is the loss they
sustain from impa SSa bic roads There
has been much agitation on the subject
and it is having its effect, but until
something is done TO improve the con-
d;tion of the roads of this country its
prosperity will suffer to an enormous
extent. Land in county where the
roads are good is worth twice as much
as in Il mud road county, and the farm
crs Of the country could not pay taxes
for any purpose that would make great
CIR direct returns. Good roads are
necessary to n perfect civilization, and
that means that we shall have them
some time in the not distant future

To Fatten Cattle Quickly.

To fattcn cattle most rapidly at this
season of the year provide Il pasture
with at least one acre of gra~s for each
COW or steer. begin with five pounds
of corrmeal and one pound of crushed
oil cake for each animal. Increase the
feed by adding one pound of cornlneal
and one-half pound of oil cake daily
for two weeks. If corn is ground with
out the cob make a mixture of three
parts meal and one part bran or mill
feed by weight. A ration of twenty
pounds meal and bran. eight pounds
oil cake. with grass, water and salt,
will fattcn the animals as rapidly as
heavier feeding. I would use nothing
but old process oilmeal--D. w. Mott,
In American .agriculturist.

Medieval magniticence combined
with modern comfort characterizes the
beautiful steam launch which has just
been constructed for the use of the
king and queen of Italy at Venice.
Painted Il snowy white. it has n large
pavilion of carved mahogany. In front
arc the royal arms, supported by cupids
astride of anchors, and behind is the lion
of Venice thanked by dolphins. On the
sides, two eagles of Savoy spread their
wings. The windows are framed by
slender columns. which seem to sup
port the roof, thus giving lightness to
the appearance Of the launch, which is

ELECTRIC WEED KILLER.
Eta Inventor Claims IIave brought ,S1
O Practical SHAPE.

ItH Inventor Claims IIave brought .xS
Down to Practical Shape.
The electric weed-l<iller, which YVES
experimental upon some time ago with
varying results. is said to have been
brought down to practical shape. The
device was intended originally for the
destruction of grass and weeds along
railroads. It is now proposed to eX-
tend its application to land covered by
noNious weeds, such as the Canadian
and Russian thistle, cookie burrs and
the like. 1t is expected to be especially
valuable in the destruction of plants Of
the thistle tribe, in which the root
must be destroyed in order to annilli-
late the weed. 1t is claimed that the
use of the electric vveed-l<iller will re-
duce the cost of keeping railway lines
clear of vegetation from $40 to $50 per
mile per year. The operation of the
device is based the varying con-
ductivity of vcgeta b1es; the more
moisture they contain the less re-
~istance they offer to the current. The
apparatus consists of an alternating
generator mounted on a car, producing
electricity at 1000 volts pressure. and
''Steppcd up to from 5000 to $4,000
volts, according to the kind and quality
OF the vegetation to be destroyed. The
current, after being raised to the re-
quired voltage, is conducted through a
series of fine wires or ''brnsheS' to the
tops of the weeds or grass: the other
side Of the current being made through
the wheels of the car to the ground.
The current leaps from the suspended
brush to the weeds, and passes through
them to the ground, thus omple ting
the circuit. The current traverses the
entire length of the plant. from the
topmoSt leaf to the roots, rupturing its
cellular tissue and completely destroy
ing it. The root is generally affected
more than the rest Of the plant, from
he fact that it contains more moisture.
In many cases the current, in passing,
heats the plant to such an extent that
it cannot he held in the hand. 1t is
said that the apfoa ri tuS can be quickly
equipped, and at no great expense

THE APPLE ORCHARD.
Trees Close Together Is Said to
Have Some Advantages.

Some time since writer in your pa
per advised planting apple trees IS to
40 feet apart, as this will prevent rot,
permit the apples to color up better,
etc. In part he was right, but in my
opinion he was on the whole wrong.
/ n order to make an orchard profita BILE,
it is necessary TO have more trees on q
given amount of land than when placed
80 to As feet apart. If we can do this
and not njure the land, trees or fruit,

ward protita BILE commercial orchard

best crops The fruit is larger. moro
perfect. and less liza BILE to rot. In this
locality n tree begins to fruit at tho
age of five or six years from planting.
The next 10 or IL years the orchard is
in its prime, and if during this time

have one-ti1ird more fruit to market.

Some Useful Hints Washing Different

The sual, ordinary way of washing
stockings, by the usual, very ordinary
laundress, is to take the rinsin. water
left after the white clothes arc out,
put in the stockings with a ''sinl<

best way.
The first essenti al in washing stock
ings is to have an absolutely clean
soap solution in tepid water. Put in
your stockings. right side out, rub
we'll, turn and rub on wrong side. If
the color is at all delicate. rub the feet
first, then the legs, as not to leave
the latter long in the water. Rinse
thoroughly in water of the same tenn
perat:lrc, wiring dry, and hang from
the tops Of the stockings, SO that if
any water settles, leaving a little dis
colora ton, it will be in the toe RAJ her
than in the leg. The black stockings
now are usually fast color and give no
trouble. If the colOred stockings show
signs of running or fading, the color
may be set with alum or salt water,
only bearing in mind that alum will
be apt to set the dirt we'll as the
color.
Silk stockings should be washed and
rinsed in lukewar1n water, and wrung
between towels. Silk underwear
should be soaked twenty minutes in
warm suds and ammonia water, al
lowing Il tablespoon of ammonia to a
gallon of water. Rub gently with the
hands-squcczing, pressing, but never
scrubbing. DO not be too lavish in
the use of soap, and never rub soap di-
rectly on the garment; always us., it in
