and the entrances may be arranged in
any manner preferred (front and rear).
If more nests are required, one or more
can be added by placing them on the
box, as may be seen in the illustration.
BY this arrangement the nests can be
moved or placed anywhere in the house,
or carried outside to be cleaned (as it
is not necessary to nail the top to the
sides), and being very compact, there
is quite saving of space compared
with the usual method of fastening
continuous nests to the sides of the
house, while by separating the nests
from the roosts tLe nests will be clean

for the convenience of the fowls. The
entrances to two of the nests are not

AMONG THE POULTRY.

Lice cannot live where carbolic acid
Is used.
The laying hens should have their
nests somewhat hidden from view.
Too much grease on chickens will
be fatal to them, as well as to the lice.
Crushed oyster shells and broken
bone will furnish the fowls all the lime
they need.
The most persistent sitters are
cochins, brahmas, Wyandottes and
dominiques.
Onions, cabbage and celery chopped
fine with a piece of meat make good
poultry ration.
When the ground is frozen hard the
fowls cannot secure grit and it must be
supplied to them.
%lran or cornmeal mixed down with
skim milk makes good feed for all
kinds of poultry.
One serious objection to allowing the
ducks and geese to run together is that
it is almost impossible to keep the
ducks from soiling the water. = st.

Ground onts FOR ChicIss.

An objection to the use of ground
pats for chicks is that they contain
large proportion of the chaff, or hrlls,
which are not beneficial. Ground oats
are superior to all ground grains for
chicks, and to avoid the difficulty it
is only necessary to sift the oats after
tLey are ground, which removes the OBJ
jectionable portions. This is no loss,
however, for the siftings may be mixed
with the food of adult fowls without
liability of harm and will be highly
relished. Ground oats should always

FARM AND GARDEN.
PEACOCK FARMING.
Thc Birds ncquire Careful reedir

The Birds Require Careful Feeding,
Hut Very Little Management.
Raising peacocks and pheasants is n
new business in this country. To sup
ply their wants number of million
aires are importing eggs and birds from
England.
George Vanderbilt is among the num-
ber. He has already lot of peacocks
of the breed curiously called "Ja-
panned"-perhaps because their feath-
ers have a metallic, lacquer-like glitter
ing. They are often spoken of as the
Japanese or Japan peacock. Theodore
Havemeyer has recently imported lot
of pheasant eggs of the choicest breed.
lie sent them to his model farm, NAH
way, N. j., and then invited a company
of bantam hens to hatch out the young
birds.
PeacoclSs, although not a common
sight in this country, are occasionally
seen; pheasants are even more rare
but, as already said, a demand has arisen
for them, and a lucrative business
should be carried on in dealing with
both eggs and the birds.
In Suffolk, England, there is pheas-
ant new upon one estate where more
than 100000 eggs are sold annually, says
the Boston Globe. To visit Warwick
castle is to see peacocks in all their
glory, indeed the place is famous for
these birds, of which the handsomest
are white.
Having become possessed of a pair of
peafowls, they require very little man.

kept in confinement they keep up pret-
~ substantial living themselves; it
must be seen to that they have plenty
of water and grain and occasionally
fresh vegetables. In winter they must
have sheltered home. In summer
they avail themselves of the sheltered
trees and in some secluded nook the
nest is made. The hen should be left
10 her own meditations and not inter-
fered with while she is on the nest
Matching eggs.
A peafowl allowed to make her own
nest in a hedge always brings out a
stronger and better brood than one that
has a nest in a house. When hatched
the young brood should not be removed
until the next day, feeding not being re-
quired. The first food should be egg
and milk, equal parts beaten together
and heated until it gets into soft
mass. This is given with little millet
or wheat. When one adds sufficiently
to ones stock to sell eggs as well as
birds, ones bank account should as
sumo healthy proportions.
Bringing up pheasants by hand is an
extensive industry in England, an6
there is no reason why it should not
thrive here. The eggs are collected
from birds kept in new and are placed
under domestic hens. Care on the part
of the keeper must be exercised aftef
the brood is old enough to wander
about, lest, falling victims to hs-edity.
they wander off and take to Wild life.
Indeed, they can only be kept from
wandering in every direction by being
plentifully supplied with food, which
must be scattered in the places where it
is desired they should stay.

POULTRY MANAGEMENT.
Convert mt Least Part of Your Sur
plus Corn Into Eggs.

Convert Mt Least Part of Your Sur
plus Corn Into Eggs.
One pound of corn converted into eggs
will quadruple the value of the corn,
and pay for the labor used in feeding it
to the fowls. The fowls on farm open
the way to larger profits, because there
is always certain proportion of waste
food that can be utilized by poultry
which will not be of much value as food
for large stock. The furmer who is a
business man is not content to sell his
crops off the farm at low prices to be
converted into better marketable
product, but uses his intelligence with
his labor. There is room on all farms
for poultry, but it is not usually given,
and the hens are expected to be self-sup-
porting, because they are willing to
forage. 1t is true that the COW pro-
cures from the pasture u large share
of her food, but when the pasture fails,
provision is made fer her support, O..
she will shrink in her milk. The same
rule applies to fowls. When the winter
appears they must be assisted, or there
will be falling off in eggs. AS the COW
will not thrive on grain alone, neither
will the hen. Judicious feeding to Sc
cure the desired product is necessary.
Give the hens their proper place on the
farm, and look upon them as a source
from which profit can be obtained, and
consider them as useful agents in chang
ing the food into higher-priced articles.
1t is when grain is used on the farm that
the farm pays, and eggs have paid when
there was no revenue from any of the
animals.-Farm and Fireside.

ACORN POISONING.
A Cattle Disease Which Is of Free
auent Occurrence in England.


quent Occurrence in England.
The British board of agriculture
warns stock owners who turn cattle
into places where there are plenty of
acorns against the danger of poisoning.
1t says that in the years 1868, 1870 and
1894, which were remarkable for q
large yield of acorns after long, dry
and hot summer, serious losses among
young cattle occurred from outbreaks
of what is known as acorn disease, or
acorn poisoning. Young cattle up to
two years old suffered most severely.
Mich COWS and cattle over three years
old were seldom affected. Sheep and
pigs appeared to be unsusceptible to
the poisonous action of the seeds, and
only two or three cases of the disease
were reported in these animals, while
entire herds of young cattle were at
tackled, and large proportion of them
succumbed. Acorn poisoning is quite
distinct from indigestion due to eating
an excessive quantity of acorns. This
incidental disorder may occur in ordi-
nary seasons when animals are first al
lowed access to pasture where acorns
abound. But the true acorn disease is
distinguished by progressive wasting,
entire loss of appetite, diarrhoea, dis.
charge of an excessive quantity of pale
urine, sore places inside the mouth,
discharge from the nostrils and also
from the eyes, which are always sunk
n, giving to the animal peculiar
haggard appearance. No fever is pres
ent from first to last, but, on the con-
trary, the temperature is commonly be-
low the normal standard.
