Guinea Fowls.

1t is the nature of the guinea never to
wean it's young, and when raised with a
chicken hen, as my own were, the little
things are greatly distressed when their
foster mother disownS them. They would
run all over the yard looking for her,
crying most piteously, and when the
search was fruitless, | used to find them
perched like birds on the low limbs OF a
peach tree, in the most hopeless and dis
consulate manner. When they began to
lay the next spring, they made their
nests with the chickens, but later on IN
The summer, they took to the garden
and orchard; so we got the most of their
eggs. They are more gentle even than
my chickens; | can catch one at any
time by throwing down few crumbs,
and frequently hav to push them out Of
the way with my hand when feeding
young chicks.
Gaineas are rather tender fowls, seem
to suffer greatly with cold, and are glad
to 60 into the poultry house in winter to
roost with the chickens; but with milder
The Florida agriculturist. [volume] (DeLand, Fla.) 1878-1911, 1895-07-03

weather in spring, they return to their
rooSts in the big apple tree. the same
which sheltered them when they were
tiny chicks AS they can fly like birds,
no fence restraints them; the garden is
their favorite hunting ground, where
they can catch thousands of bugs and
worms, and really do "a greatdea of good,
They do not scratch for their food like
chickens; only when making their nests
do they hollow out Cup-shaped recep
tace in the soft earth, and these are
sometimes found running over with
small, brown eggs, for they are prolific
layers. In fact, we keep tn m chiefly
for their eggs, and because they are such
pretty, harmless little things and serve
to give variety to the place.
The eggs of the guinea are rich and
we'll favored, preferred by many house
keepers for cake and oLher nice cooking.
1t is common saying that Whtn broken
their eggs are as large as hens egg,
owing to the fact, as | suppose, that the
yelk is larger in proportion. The shell
is remarkably thick, so hard to break
that, if the eggs were round, the boys
might take them to play marbles with,
A boy told me that he and another lad
played ball with one once for quite a
while, throwing the egg and cato hing it
in their hands, until he cracked 1t on
purpose to make it break in the other
boys hands. 1t is pity the eggs are
not popular in market; they would be
splendid for shipping.
But few farmers get as many eggs in
proportion to their flock Of guineas as
we do. They are allowed 10 run wild
over the place, and make their nests so
far field that the crows get most of
the eggs. When one Of the flock is
wanted for table use it is shot like wild
game, which of course makes the flock
wilder still. Very few young guineaS
are raised under these circumstances
They are so tender and delicate that if
the flock doubles itself in season it is
considered as doing very well.-Country
Gentleman.
The Florida agriculturist. [volume] (DeLand, Fla.) 1878-1911, 1895-07-03

100 or more No flock should have more
than twenty-five in it.
You can't have beautiful stock when
they are covered with lice. Fowls, like
all other stock, must have refreshing
sleep at night, and a perch full of lice
will keep them awake as much as a bed
full of bugs would torment it's owner.
Loss of sleep soon pulls down the strong
est of poultry.
You can't successfully run an inCu-
bator without a full knowledge of the
condition of the room or cellar in which
the machine is to be run. Moisture and
ventilation cannot be measured, neither
can the directions Of the manufacturers
be tlied upon in all cases. 1t is impor-
tant to follow the latter in the beginn-
ing, and carefully noting the progress
made, improve on such points as will fit
the surrounding conditions. You can't
run an incubator inland with the same
directions as will run it on the coast,
and vice versa.
You can't master the entire poultry
business. Too much art and science is
required The art of caponizing is
equally as difficult to learn. The art of
mating and breeding fowls up to stand
ard requirements requires tatents all do
not possess. There is the science of
broiler raising, the science Of producing
choice table poultry, the science of egg
production-a man would have to give
a life study to master all these branches,
and he would have to live Methusela h
age.
You can't be successful fancier of
a class-the American or the Asiatics or
the Mediterranean, or any of them-lnd
make your study in that direction. Such
work brings it's reward
You can't find an "all-round" judge
who is as reliable as one who handles his
specialties. 1t is said that Judge /. K
Felch is one of the best, if not the best
Brahma judge in America. Why is it?
For the simple reason that the Asiatlc
class has been life study OF his. He is
an old man now.
You can't find a better com bination
than egg and poultry raising for market
You can't do better than work egg
farming as the speciality, with poultry
raising as an adjunct. And if you keep
thoroughbreds you can make an extra
dollar by selling eggs tor Matching and
fowls for breeding purposes.
Think we'll over what you can't do,
and try your very best to do what you
can perform. That is the foundation
upon which the Goulds, Vanderbilts,
Astors ct al, built their fortunes.
