A Timely Suggestion.
Editor Irish Standard:

Editor Irish Standard:
Dear Sir-In the interest and welfare
of the A. o. II. l Would suggest that
you invite discussion through the COL
umns of the Irish Standard on the vari-
GUS amendments and changes to be
made in our constitution and bylaws
by the next state convention which will
be held in this city, next summer. l
think that all insurance officials and in
fact all insured members of the order
should give their views particularly on
such propositions as the taking into
this jurisdiction the states of Wisconsin,
North and South Dakota In my opin-
ion these suggestions coming from all
parts Of the state would be Of much
benefit to the delegates who will attend
next years convention.

spring. mean they will give larger
per cent Of vigorous chicks than pull
let's, other things being equal. They
will require warm house. not neces-
sarily expensive, plenty of wholesome
food and pure water regularly given,
and variety of food, to lay well
through the winter. Give a warm
breakfast of bran, one-third cooked
vegetables and table scraps, one-third
and clover. either cut fine. or the
shatterings from clover hay one-third,
mix with hot water. milk If you have
1t, and feed warm. One can't tell the
amount required. as some hens will
eat more than others, but give just
what they will eat greedily, not all
they want. Twice a week salt as II
for table use, and once in ten days add
pepper, 10 boughten pepper or tea
made from peppers grown at home; al
so add what table scraps you have.
Tack heads of cabbage, secure by the
wall or post in pleasant weather, SO
they can pick and eat of it. Have
scratching shed open to the southland
keep them at work in these hunting for
wheat, millet and sorghum or Kaifir
corn that has been scattered in a lit
ter Of leaves or straw. Hide it extra
well, so they will have to hunt for it.
Feed corn at night, all they need to
fill their crops. Whenever possible get
scraps from q butcher shop, and if you
do not have bone mill, cut and pound
them with an ak. If you are near q
butcher shop that will furnish you
scraps it will be economy to buy bone
mill, as your egg sales will be much
larger, your hens healthier and your
feed bill smaller. If, however, you
live, as We do. too far from the
shops to get your scraps, buy prepared
bone meal of any reliable brand adver-
tised, and feed according to directions.
Have charcoal, gravel, and grit before
them all the time. l manufacture grit
with an old clock weight, hammer
and pieces of crockery. Keep the dust
box filled and dry, and a little sulphur
mixed in the dust. In cold weather
give warm water or milk; use milk II
you have it all the time. Of course
they will want water, too. If you keep
hens they will want extra attention
through their moulting period. Meat
of some kind is needful just now for
them, and seed with oil in it, as sun
flower seed. Kaffir corn is excellent for
them, cheap, too, for it yields so Won
derfully. Make companions of your
hens; don't scare them, but keep them
gentle. Prepare clean nests and plen-
ty Of them. Keep free of lice. Be on
the lookout constantly, for this is the
only way to be free of them. When
the children crack nuts have the hulls
taken to the scratching shed; the bid
die will find several morsels. When
corn is popped take the hard grains
to the hens; they will like them for
change.

Well Bred Stock. So

II there be any one proposition In re-
lation to which well-informed opinion
is at one, it is that well bred stock
will afford profit when no other kind
will, and that when prices are so
good that the growing Of almost any
kind Is remunerative, well bred animals
are so much more profitable as to make
1t very unwise to grow any other kind,
says Northwestern Farmer. This fact
is we'll recognized in the swine indus
try and very few animals go to market
now from the swine belt that do not
have a god proportion Of good blood
which gives them form and early ma
turing quality. In the cattle business,
however, the principle, although al
most unanimously admitted, is not so
unanimously observed. A great many
cattle are produced from matings that
should never have been made, and
especially is it true that slres are used
that should have been shipped to the
fat steer market. This is very unwise.
1t Is waste of feed, of care, of the use
OF land, and Of the labor that must be
expended in the growing of cattle OF
any kind. With we'll bred cattle, calves
intended for beef can be literally fed
from birth, whether they be steers or
heifer calves, and they should never
know the stunning that is occasioned
by roughing it through on insufficient
feed and with insufficient care. Such
cattle attain a marketable age early
Snd when they reach it will have both
tho size and finish to insure the best
prices that are going If, however,
they are stunted at any time, no fu-
ture care can fully regain for them
what they have lost. In this respect,
however, they are no different from
scrubs, for a stunted scrub cannot re-
gain its best estate either. With steers
OF little or no breeding, good deal
longer maintenance is required, for
they will not fatten until they have
matured, and they do not mature until
they have attained considerable age.
There was good reason in the old days
why steers were kept until four or five
years of age; they did not mature until
then, and until they did mature no
smoothness or finish could be given,
and at an earlier age they would go
forward coarse and rGwboned, and only
command the inferior prices which stuff
of that kind brought. The market now
demands younger cattle, but the young
er cattle that it wants is of the kind
that natures when young. The demand
does not mean scrubs crowded and
shipped at an early age. With cattle
in which the breeding has received at
tention and which has been literally
fed from calfhood, the weights of 1,4OO
or 1900 can be made at an early age
and the style and finish will sell the
animal for a good price, as compared
with the top of the market, but scrub
cattle can be neither fattened nor fin
ished early, and hence they cannot be
turned quick, and must be maintained
if they are to receive any fattening and
finish worth speaking of for nearly
twice as long as well-bred animals.

wInttr Care Of Laying Hens.

The season of high prices for eggs
is now with us. and the owners of hens
that are filling the egg baskets are
correspondingly happy. That the right
kind Of care does more to produce eggs
than any other thing is universally
known, but there must be something
besides care, or it will be almost as
bad as no care. The foundation is
good healthy hens from an early lay
Ing stock. There are more advocates
OF early Matched pullets for winter lay
ing than of hens, but think one-year-
old vigorous hens, properly fed through
their moulting season, win give as
many or more eggs to the farmer, and
then their eggs are better to set IN tbs

Habits of the House Ely.

That we may know the least about
what we commonly see is we'll illus
trated in the life history of the house
fly. They are always with us, but we
know very little of their comings in
and goings out The University Of Min
nesota has recently issued paper on
the subject-not telling us all we would
like to know, but still adding consider
ably to the little we have. 1t is not
certain that it is real native of Amer
lea, or whether it came as a stow-away
in some early vessel from the old
world. They were very active in Min
nesota during the month of August.
Between p. m. and s a. m. next day
one fly had laid 120 eggs. This was
August IL; on August IA the eggs were
Matched, and minute fly maggots were
crawling about. The eggs usually
hatch in about twenty-four hours after
being laid. The fly usually deposits its
eggs in manure. The maggots moult
twice. The larva is full grown in six
days, when it becomes pupa, and, in
five or six days, energies from its case
a full grown fly. Each female fly is
capable of laying 1000 eggs in a sea-
son; few Of the stronger live through
the winter as flies, and start the brood
next season. Many die in the fall from
parasite fungus, and may be seen fast
to the wl.-4ow glass.-Meehan' Month.

Animals In Janan.

Holstein-Friesian breeders who have
sold cattle for export to Japan will be
interested to learn that Japan is land
without the domestic animals, says the
Holstein-Friesian Register. 1t is this
lack which strikes the stranger so for.
chilly in looking upon Japanese land
scapes. There are no cows; the Japan
ese neither drink milk nor eat meat.
There are but few horses, and these
are imported mainly for the use of the
foreigners. The freight cars in the city
streets are pulled and pushed by cool
les, and the pleasure carriages are
drawn by men. There are but few dogs,
and these are neither used as watch
dogs, beasts Of burden, nor in hunting
except by foreigners. There are no
sheep in Japan, and wool is not used in
clothing, silk and cotton being the sta
pies. There are no pigs; pork is an un-
known article of diet and lard is not
used in cooking. There are no goats
or mules or donkeys. Wild animals
there are, however, and in particular,
bears of an enormous size.
