Poultry Pointers.

The spring season is near and
poultry-nen should be ready to give
old king" lice a good drubbing or he
will get the best of you Lice have
been the death of more chicks than
all the diseases poultry are subject to
and the way to get rid of them is to
start in now by cleaning all the
houses Thoroughly from top to bottom,
oiling every crack that they can
possibly find a refuge in. After oi1ing
everything, whitewash the house and
sprinkle lime on the floor. The best
mixture for whitewash is one ounce of
carbe1ic acid to bucker full of water
putting in enough fresh lime to burn
the hand when it touches it, then oil
the roost. which should be movable.
Repeat the oil once week throughout
the summer.
Another thing to be looked after is
the coops for the first broods, which
should be made with a tight side to
protect them from cold and rain. In
order to realize the greatest profit in
poultry you should try and have broil-
ers and eggs when they are scarce, in
order to do this you should have next
fall layers Matched out by the 18th of
April and in that way you can sell the
cockerels you get for enough to more
than keep the pullets to maturity.
Eggs are very cheap now like every
thing else but the price will take a
rise as soon as old biddy starts on her
season of setting.-Harry H. Collier.

HOOD CANAL, April ,, 1895.
Your correspondent returned last
week from the rich farming region of
Dungeness, where potatoes are four
dollars ton, eggs eight cents dozen,
and where one Of the excellent butter
makers said he would be glad if he
could get fifteen cents pound for his
butter during the coming season.
Surely Mason County farmers are not
so bad off as some others. There 200
sacks of scabby potatoes sold for
sixty dollars, or FIVE cents a sack.
There is no sale for very many, and
it is said thousands of bushels will rot.
On his return he learned the sad
news of the death, by drowning, of
Alexander Pollock, about seven or
eight miles above Union City, on the
22nd. He started across the Canal to
his own home from his brother-in-laws
John Lewiston, and tied his sail rope
to the boat, but a sudden squall came
and upset the boat. Mrs. Lewiston
saw him trying to get on to the boad,
but was unable to launch large skiff
which was on the beach. so as to 60 to
his assistance. Ne more help was
within about three miles and when
she obtained it, he was gone. His
body had not been obtained at last

one after he has travelled the long and
difficult path leading thereto, seemed
alive on that occasion with rosy, laugh

were spread under the trees and laden

all who desired to partake. After
