WHEAT is cheap-better buy 1t In

BUCKwHEAT and millet are cheap. but
the chickens like them.
Coop care is better than trusting to

ALLOW four square feet of floor room
for each fowl in your poultry house.
CLovERHEADs or cut clover for the
fowls should be placed where they will
not be fouled or wasted.
A PIECE of burlap sacking tackled over
the roosts and kept soaked with kero-
sene will keep the lice away.
CLEAR out all cockerels that are not
needed for breeding purposes; they are
better in the potpie than the hen yard

For winter eggs keep pullets or
young hens, give them warm house.
exercise, plenty of green food, meat
and grit in addition to grain and pure
water.
WITH a daily demand for $4,000. 00o
eggs in the United States, and an i'm
portation of over $4,000 dozens from
Europe each week, il will certainly pay
to give the poultry little extra care.

Eighteen inches is very good height
for hopper. If one is made for hum
bred birds it should be long enough to
have at least ten or twelve openings,
each one at least four inches distant
from any other. This would make the
dimensions say four or five feet long,
twelve inches wide and eighteen inches
high. Several smaller ones can be
used instead of one large one, and we
believe this is the better plan, for they
are more readily emptied out should
this be necessary.

the hopper is sometimes placed on
table in the middle of the loft. the
table itself being supported by single
smooth metal leg which prevents the
mice from reaching the grain.

AN ALPENA MIRACLE.
Mrs. Jas. NJ. Todd, Of Long Rapids
Pr Discardsi Her Crutchee. ~
In an Interview with Reporter She Re-
Views Her Experience and Tells the
Real Cause Of the Miracle
(From the Argus. Alpena, Mch.)

We have long known Mrs. Jas. M. Todd,
of Long Rapids, Alpena Co., Mich. She
has been a sad cripple. Many of her friends
know the story of her recovery; for the
benefit of those who do not we publish 1t to-
day.
Eight wears ago she was taken with nerv-
Gus prostration, and IN few months with
muscular and infammatory rheumatism.
It affected her heart, then her head. Her feet
became so swollen she could wear nothing
on them; her hands were drawn all out OF
shape Her eyes were swollen shut more
than half the time, her knee joints terribly
swollen and for eighteen months she had
to be held up to be dressed. One limb be-
came entirely helpless, and the skin was so
| dry and cracked that it would bleed. During
these eight years she had been treated by a
score of physicians, and has also spent
| much time at Ann Arbor under best medi-
| cal advice. All said her trouble was
| brought on by hard work and that medicine
| would not cure, and that rest was the only
thing which would ease her. After going
| TO live with her daughter she became entire
| ly helpless and could not even raise her
arms to cover herself at night. The inter-
esting part of the story follows in her own
| words:

It is very convenient way to feed
pigeons from a hopper. The birds,

and thus obtain abundant exercise, do
we'll Whether it is the best plan Is
open to question, but it is plan gem
orally pursued by pigeon-keepers.
: A hopper consists of a narrow box,
say about foot wide, with openings
in front for the pigeons to feed from.
These openings are usually about three
inches wide and five or six high, square
at the bottom and rounded at the top.

White Clover for Pasture.

Prof. Heny thinks that it is hardly
advisable to sow white clover alone on
land for hog pasture He urges mix
ture of several grasses, such as two
bushels of blue grass, one bushel OF
orchard grass, one peck of timothy
and four pounds Of white clover seed.
Sow this on three acres of ground with
q very light seeding Of oats or barley,
or, better still, without any grain at
all. He suggests that the land be not
pastured until the sod is we'll formed.
and, If the grass runs up tall, that it
may be cut for hay. No stock should
be turned in on the field until the sec
ond season, unless for few weeks In
the fall while the ground is dry. He
urges thick seeding.-Prairie Farmer.

AN INDIAN FOREST.

some of the Dangers of Its Tangled
Depths.
Still nights bring out the brilliant
firefiies in swarms, but the radiance is
such as that of sparkling gems, and
gives no guidance to the wayfarer. So
that, unless there is a bright moon, no
march can be made in the forest. Even
then it is dangerous, for snakes are
numerous; and the tribesmen, when
suspecting the approach of an enemy,
protect such paths as there are with
sharp bamboo stakes, concealed in the
grass, and capable of penetrating the
foot. Then briars and roots often lie
across the way and cause the traveller
frequently to trip. So that the best
thing to do when overtaken by night
fall is to make a rude shelter OF
branches, rooted with plantain leaves,
with floor of dry elephant grass or
rushes, put out the fire as soon as cook
ing is done, take of your damp clothes,
roll yourself in your blanket, tuck your
revolver beneath such pillow as you
have, and go to sleep.
