The Next Hay Crop. The New Eng
land Homestead reports as follows:
Farmers will devote full area to
hay the coming season. Many of our
returns from the middle and western
states point to an increase Of 10 to 20
per cent over last year occasionally
more than this-while others an acre
age about equal to last year and some
to q decrease. In the western states,
where the crop is nearly all prairie
hay, the amount cured will depend to
some extent upon prices in July. In
many Of the older central and eastern
states, given over largely to Timothy
and clover hays. there will be an in
crease owing to the cheapness Of po-
tatoes and grain.

amount. The only idea is to warm up
the system in cold weather, ward OF
colds and chills, and promote digestion.
A little pepper is good. Too much is
an injury. Snow is with us and the
poultryman will have considerable
work on hand, not only to shovel paths,
but also to open up areas where the
fowls may come out, and exercise them
selves. A hen is very helpless in deep
snow. She cannot walk, nor can she
get upon the wing without much trou-
Die. Hence it is quite important to
provide small space which has been
cleared of snow The snow that is to be
moved may be appropriated to bank
up against the poultry house. In this
way the cold will be kept out dow
ever, it must be looked after that dur
ing melting spell the water does not
run into the house. Drainage must OF
course be good. Unfortunate indeed
is the family who cannot produce its
own eggs and thus have the satisfaction
OF knowing they are fresh and good,
and of tasting their delicious flavor.
There are many pleasures and luxurles
connected with fowl culture that
are Independent of mere pecuniary ad-
vantages. AS the weather becomes
cold, collect the eggs oftener For
them to freeze means the loss of their
sale. Really the poultry house should
be sufficiently warm and snug so that
the eggs will not freeze in any ordl-
nary winter weather Frequent collec-
tons are still more essential when the
eggs are to be preserved for Matching
purposes. Wet, damp houses and yards
are the source of much disease and Ill
health to poultry. After a shower the
drainage should be sufficient to take
off all surface water. The inside of the
poultry house should be elevated slight
ly so as to admit of no influx of water
from without. Fowls will stand cold
better by far than dampness and filth.
Lice are not SO rampant at present as
they were last summer, but yet they
are still in existence. The "red mites"
will be found in cracks and holes on
and near the perches. Soak them in
kerosene occasionally and they will
give up the struggle. The dust bath
in a sunny corner of the fowl house is
an institution that should never be
missing, and it should also be replen-
ished and renewed from time to time.

What One Boy Did.

Although we have spoken several
times recently on the subject Of poul-
try raising by the young folks, we can
not refrain from telling the boys and
girls what gentleman in this city told
us not long since about his boy, says
the Poultry World. This account was
such an apt illustration of what we
have recently endeavored to impress on
our readers that we will give it to
them. At the age Of ten years this boy
began keeping poultry. His father
built him fowl house for which moth
ing was ever paid by the son, but this
was the only expense which was not
borne by the young fancier himself
He kept White Leghorns and his spare
time out of school was devoted to car
ing for and enjoying the flock. He
worked at the business and it was good
for him. It taught him regularity and
involved responsibilities in seeing that
his pets did not suffer. When he reach
ed the age of twenty he went into
his fathers office. His bank book at
that time showed a balance in his IA
vor of 1000, cleared from his poultry
while he attended school. Those who
think it mot worth the trouble" may
ponder this result with edification to
themselves. That one thousand dollars
was worth more than one hundred
thousand cents to the land. It repre-
scented more than money. It was ma
terial evidence of much that could not
be expressed in dimes and dollars. To
begin with, it associated health and
vigor with it's owner. Business habits
also were necessarily formed in the
course of that decade which would be
useful in future. independence was in
dicated, a sense of being of some i'm
portance and the means of doing for
himself were accompanying features.
All these are worth much, and many
a worried father and distracted mother
who wish that the boys had something
to do "that they like to do and amount
to something" would do well to follow
the course adopted by his father.

Poultry Runs.

Farmers are not, as are city people,
restricted for range for their poultry,
Therefore the birds should always
have large ranges. The range should
be large enough SO that the grass, will
not be eaten off, 1t might be thought
that this word of advice is not needed,
vet we know that it is. We have our
selves seen farms where the poultry
run was so limited that the earth was
bare of verdure all the time. Beyond
the run in mind was grass field that
should have been made to contribute to
the sustenance of the poultry. There
is another point about having grass
run for the poultry so large that the
grass cannot be eaten off. That is,
that grass is a cheaper food for poul-
try, as a part ration, than almost any
other. The grass not only is cheap
food, but healthful food, and one that
seems to stimulate egg production. The
blades of grass attract insects, such as
grasshoppers, and thus contribute to
the supply of f1esh-food, so much liked
by poultry. Wire for fencing costs lit
tie: therefore there is no reason why
a large poultry run should not be an
accessory to every farm.

lower prices have prevailed. The un-
usually large production Of milk, ana
therefore of butter and cheese, was
caused by the favorable weather con-
ditions throughout the summer ana
early fall. The year has been without
precedent for good pasturage through
out the hot season, and in consequence
there was little decrease in the make
of butter until the latter part OF Octo-
Der. While in former years there was
a large falling off in the make after
June, enormous quantities of June but
ter were placed in cold storage IN an
ticipation of the higher prices that
come with lessening in the make
and as the supply of fresh stock Kept
up through the summer holders OF
storage stock grew anxious, but the
fall developed a good demand Tor 1t,
and the year 1896 closed with cold
storage goods we'll cleaned up. Much
Of this overproduction of butter found
a ready sale in foreign markets. Hand
lers of butter are constantly on the
lookout for markets in which to ad-
ter. The causes of increased produc-
and the export trade was factor To-
ward that end in the last year. This
trade is growing, as is shown by the
fact that in 1895 the United States ex-
ported 1851, 500 pounds, and in 1896
sent abroad 26,32O,O0O pounds of but
ter. The causes of increased produc-
ton of butter apply also to the large
make of cheese in 1896. But in addl-
ton to this the passage of the "flled-
cheese law was of incalculable value
TO this industry, and also of great ben
eft to the entire dairy interests of the
country. While the data at hand show
a marked improvement in the con-
sumption of cheese at home, there has
been but little more exported in 1896
than in 1895. Through and local re-
