BADLY ARRANGED BOOSTS.

one is unoccupied. The fear of danger
will prompt fowls to seek tie highest
roosting place. If the, roosts are level,
no injury from getting on and off will
occur and the fowls will not crowd one
another.
The following arrangement is con-
vcnient one: Make tight platform a
foot and half from the floor, to catch
the droppings. Around the edge nail
strip one by three to keep the drop
pings from scattering and which will
give a step for the fowls in going on
and off. A platform arranged in this
way is conducive to cleanliness. as the
fowls will not step in the manure and
track it over the floor. Place the roosts
foot above the platform and rest them

FLOWING IN SPRING.
Deepening Old Ground Should Al
ways BE Done Gradually.

Deepening Old Ground should Al
ways BE Done Gradually.
Good crops are dependent upon the
blowing being done well. As it is rather
slow, heavy work, and in the spring is
usually hard on teams, it is always an
item to lessen the amount to be done a
N uch as possible. If the ground is well
plowed in good season under ordinary
conditions it is comparatively. an easy
matter to get the seeding done in good
season. But it is important that the
work be done thorough. There should
be no cutting and covering, nor should
there be any skips. If stone or root
throws the plow out, the team should
be stopped and backed up and the fur
row caught again.
With all spring crops it is an item to
stir the soil thoroughly and reasonably
deep. One of the essential conditions in
securing good growth and yield is to
have the soil in a fine filth when the
planting is done, and thorough blowing
is a great aid in getting the soil in
this condition.
In order to lessen the work of the
teams, and at the same time lessen the
cost of the blowing in many cases, it
will be found economical to use a some
what larger plow-one that turns
furrow IA or 1G inches in preference to
one that turns only 10 or II. With u
large pillow and three good horses one
man will be able to do not only more
work, but better work.
1t is good plan to take every OPP
portunity to pillow. Sod land can be
plowed when fallow land would be too
wet. 1t is an exceptional case after
this, when it can be considered good
economy to plow old land when it is too
wet to work readily into good filth.
While deep stirring of the soil is
best-giving not only better yield,
hut lessening the risk of failure-stiil,
if the blowing is delayed until spring
it should be done very little deeper
than the land has been plowed before,
as bringing up to the surface of any
great amount of fresh subsoil will prove
more or less detrimental. Deepening
old ground by blowing should nearly
always be done gradually.-St Louis
Republic

Poultry as n Speciality.

Will! be satisfactory. Fifty hens on one
.re could give at least u clear profit
of one dollar a hen, or fifty dollars to the
acre, and the cost for shelter will be less
than for larger stock. The fact that so
few know how to keep large tiocks for
profit is proof that farmers have all
along neglected poultry, giving the hens
on the farm but little notice, yet on the
poorest farms poultry can be made a
specially. There are good markets for
eggs close to nearly all the farms, as
winter prizes will show.-Farm and

MOISTURE OF sou.
How to Preserve 1t by Means Of Jus
dfeiOus narrowing

uChOub nQrrOWIn&.
narrowing to save moisture is thus
treated in bulletin No. 100 of the New
York experiment station. "The har-
row, besides pulverizing and filming the
soil for the seed bed, is most efficient
in furnishing soil mulch. The
spring-tooth harrow is in reality cul-
tivator and its action is similar to that
of the cultivator. When used as an in
strument to conserve moisture, the
teeth should penetrate to the depth of
about three inches, and to produce the
best effect the ridges left by it should
be leveled off by smoother which can
now be purchased as an attachment to
the harrow. The tillage of orchards
by the harrow is now practiced extern
sively, and nothing short of irrigation
will SO nearly meet the demands of trees
for moisture, particularly upon the
heavier soils. A harrow having plow-
like action of its blades serves to pull
verize the surface soil, to spread the
loose mulch evenly, and it leaves most
excellent seed bed. The cutaway or
disc harrow may be beneficial or OF
absolute injury. If the discs are so
set that they cover but a portion of
the surface of the mulch they leave
ridge exposed to the action of the
wind and sun and the rate of evapora-
ton is greatly increased. The disc
should be set at such an angle that the
whole surface shall be stirred or COW
cred. Their chief value lies in their
cutting and pulverizing action on clay
soils, but as conservers of moisture
they are inferior to the harrow with
plow-like action or the spring tooth.
Soils which need the disc narrower
should generally be gone over again
with some shallower tool. The mel.
lower the soil the lighter should be the
work done by the harrow. On most
heavy orchard soils it will be found
necessary to use the heavy tools like
the spring-tooth and disc harrows in
the spring, but if the land is properly
handled it should be in such condition
as to allow the use of 4 spike-tooth or
smoothing harrow during summer.
This light summer narrowing should
be sufficient to keep down the weeds
and it preserves the soil mulch in most
excellent condition. With such a tool
and on land in good filth man can
harrow ten or more acres day."

How to Construct Sensible ROOsts
and a Convenient Feed Box.
There are many ways of constructing
and placing roosts. The aim should he to
make them comfortable for the fowls
and convenient for the attendant in
handling and cleaning. Place allroosts
back from the windows out of the way
of draughts. They should be low and of
uniform height. Bruising of feet is
frequently caused by fowls jumping
down from high perch. If arranged
one above another, as seen in Fig. /,
the fowls will jump from the lowest
perch to the next and the strongest
fowls will crowd down the weaker ones.
