HlGH-cLAss POULTRY.

Why the RHOgresstve Farmer VIM
a Raise No Other KIND.
No man has better chance to keep
high-class poultry than the farmer. He
has unlimited range for them, and this
is conducive to health and best results
In rearing the young. He produces at
first cost every necessary food product
that goes to keep q flock during the
year, and no one who desires to pur-
chase eggs for Matching would ever buy
of breeder who keeps his fowls penned
up If he knew where he could get eggs
from farm-kept fowls. = ,.r< $780,.
There is just as good a market for
high-class poultry as there is for
poultry for market, and the demand Is
always good for good stock. The farmer
who keeps this kind of poultry has two
chances to make money. His flock will
be profitable as an investment at mar
ket prices, and he will make many sales
without effort at much above market
prices. Ia. e%E z.:>.v 49,.
It is no trouble at all, as the writer
knows from experience, to get from 50
cents to one dollar dozen for eggs
from >high-class hens during the hatch
ing season, and even at the smaller price
there is an immense profit in the bust
ness s%<:E.> @J$yk
With the better care that is always
given to good stock comes a greater re-
turn in eggs and meat for the feed used,
and here is an additional profit on the
transaction.
There is no excuse in these days that
justifes any farmer in allowing his
flock of hens to remain mongrels. The
man who does this is standing in his
own light and does, not live up to his
opportunities. It does not need fancy
houses, elaborate systems ofyards nor
extraordinary skill in breeding to make
a4success with fine poultry.Pl Plain hard
common sense, such as is needed to
raise goodscrops and conduct any farm
successfully, is better than any number
OF nice theories which are of no practic-
al value.-Farmers' Voice. .,.-.,

WOMEN AS FARMERS.

Peculiar scheme to Be sInAusurated
by a Nebraska Woman. I i
Mrs. Hattie N. Bemis,s Of Arabia,
Neb., does not see why women should
not be successful as farmers, and an
nounces that she is going To- try the
experiment if she can get dozen
women to assist her. She owns large
tract of land in northwestern Nebraska
which she says she intends toggive to
IL deserving widows of northwestern
farmers. In return she will require
them to cultivate it without mans as
sistance. She says she will start them
out with all the machinery they need,
sufficient supply of cattle, horses,
swine and poultry to serve as nest
egg, and money to last them until the
first harvest can be disposed of. She
admits that the climate is dry, but pro-
poses to instruct her wards in the OPP
Grafton of system of soil culture by
which method experiments have proved
the rainfall of the section is sufficient
to insure bountiful crops. The near
est the women will be allowed to come
to dealings with men is to sell the crops
to them. If Mrs. Bemis ever learns
that man has been employed about
the premises the farms will revert to
her. Any member Of the community
who marries will also forfeit her title
to share in the property Chicago

Labor-saving Devices Have Made TIA
Gathering Easy. y sasss !
Harvesting the corn crop is being
made easier every year BY improve
ments in labor.saving machinery and
devices. Large commercial crops are
cut, tied and left in straight rows by
the improved corn harvester, while the
bundles placed in shocks or stocks of
IL to 20 bundles to cure are then drawn
to the barn and run through the shred
der. Farmers who cannot afford the
latest and improved machinery, or who
have small areas of corn, cut by sled
as illustrated below, or by hand cutter.
The armfuls thus cut have to be tied
in bundles, various materials being
used for this purpose, some using two
or three cornstalks, others small
handful of long, strong straw, swamp
grass or willows. But whether cut by
improved machinery or by hand cut
ter, the large bundles, shocks or stocks
have to be securely fastened to with
stand the fall wind and storms.
