Sounds From the Henhouse.

Beware of roup.
Death turks in every little draught
All cracks should be closed at once.
A nail hole near the roost is worse
than an open door.
During very cold weather hot water
should be carried round two or three
times day.
Hens can not be comfortable IL they
are com PEELED to drink ice-water and
warm it inside.
One of the best ways to exercise hens
is to hang up cabbage as high as the
hens can be induced to jump.
Give the lice another round before
laying by for the winter. Use white
wash, oil or kerosene emulsion.
Idle hens in confinement will learn
bad habits. If egg eating or feather
pulling has begun it is chiefly through
want Of exercise. Make them work.
Keep the hens in when the wind il
blowing cold and when the ground is
covered with ice or snow. Repeated
experiments show that turning hens
out under such conditions reduces the
egg yield, always.
Young chickens can be sold to better
advantage to restaurants and railway
hotels than to grocers or produce deal
ers. The former will pay as much for
them at two pounds or less as the lat
ter viii pay at three pounds or more.
And it saves a months feed.
Very fair profit can be made on young
chickens the year round if they are
kept on open range, and trade can be
worked up with a restaurant. At such
places the price is seldom less than
twenty cents at two pounds or less,
which means three months keep. and
on most farms the cash cost does not
exceed half of twenty cents.-Farmers

Small Farmers.

We find this is a phrase which is dis
liked by many, but 1t is better to be .
good and successful small farmer than
an unthrifty and unsuccessful large
farmer. We often see business men
begin in a limited way and do well UNI
til they get aspiring. No sooner have
they made a little money than they
spread out, buy q larger stock Of goods
partly or chiefly on credit, and indulge
in 'great expectations" which fail Of
realization. Many q man can man
age smaller business who gets out
of his depth when he tries to
conduct larger one. Or, in the fuc-
tuations of trade, the times are not SO
good, he can not sell the larger stock
he has got together; before times im-
prove many articles become unfashion-
able and go down in value and the il.
sue is bankruptcy. In like manner.
way, go into this, that, and the other
thing until they get a bigger burden on
their shoulders than they can carry.
They have q saying out west about men
taking in more land than they can till,
which has passed into . proverb to
which there is mighty moral. 1t is
q rule everyone should observe, not to
take in more land than he can till, and
the farmer should obey this maxim in .
literal sense, not satisfying himself
with superficial of skim culture, but
thoroughly tilling every acre he puts
under the plow, or seeds down to grass.
"A little farm well titled,
A little barn well filed
is a motto worthy of being adopted by
many who are tempted to do greater
things than they have the capital or
ability to accomplish.-Farmers' Maga-
zine,

AZ IN illustration Of the value q

has to turn to the immense dairy inter.
ests near largo cities. Il Il the conn
plant of many owners OF large dairies
and creameries that they can not get
competent men to do the work fof
them. They require good butter makers
and good dairy managers-men who are
skilled in the whole branch Of modern
dairying. Such men can command
good wages and positions that would
make them independent rs long as the
dairy kept up. The dairy schools
are turning out many experienced
young men who will take charge Of
creameries or dairies in the future, and
run them on a paying basis, but mean
while could not thousands of the young
boys on our farms begin to At them
selves for positions on the farms that
would pay them good wages until they
could start into the business them
selves?
In talking with a wealthy manufac-
turer recently, who owns a large farm
in the west, which he makes pay q
handsome interest on his money in
vested, he said: II find the greatest
difficulty in getting experienced farm
ers on my place who understand
farming as it should be under

plicants who answer my advertise
ments are either slovenly and wasteful
in their methods, old-fashioned In the
notions about farming methods, igno-
rant of the modern scientific farming,
or so totally lacking in any business
principles that they coold not run .
one-acre farm profitably. The young
men that apply are just aa bad as the
old; they believe that farming is a los.
ing business, and they prove it by their
methods"

to invest in the business, but it is hard

HERE AND THERE.

Two things necessary to the best
development Of the hog are plenty Of
exercise and plenty Of green feed.
These are as important to their health
as to their growth. Dry feed and close
confinement will take all the vigor out
of hog, and, even if he becomes fat, IL
is an unhealthy development. :
One secret of successful farming
lies in the ready anticipation OF what
each seasons work is to demand OF the
farmer, and it is in the doing OF many
things out Of season, as some short
sighted people would look Mt it. Try
to transfer q part of the spring work
to the fall and winter months.
The leaving of calves and young
cattle ont in the field until snow flies
IS neither humane nor profitable. 1t
pays to get all the live stock into win
ter quarters before the weather be-
comes cold, but this applies more espe-
cially to young animals; but the wise
farmer gives it . general application.
Good roads and good fences arc
proofs indubitable Of prosperity, and
nothing 50 increases or maintains the
value Of real estate. It Is almost to be
wondered at that the farmer will ever
want to be compelled to take this step
