Advice For Winter.

10 insure fowls against sickness is
the great aim of all successful poultry
men, says Poultry Journal. At this
season, when dull days and night
frosts prevail, the seed is sown which
will eventually result in full crop of
ailments and endanger the lives of our
most favored specimens. Too much
care. therefore, cannot be given to
prevent all SYM toms of disease.
Probably the first and most common
trouble is cold in the head, which be-
gins with swelled eyes. This, if not
taken at the start, will surely run into
case of Group.
Night, when fowls are roostinp. is

or small crack just large enough to

Sometim IS SIMPLY placing the afflicted
bird III n warmer house and feeding
soft, stimulating food for few days
will remedy the trouble; but this must
be done at the start, otherwise it will
be useless.
Next to cats, dampness is most
TO be feared. Whereas it is all i'm
portant to keep houses tight at night
1T. is just as important to open windows
during the day. The breath of fowls.
coupled with freezing air, will create
dampness at night which must be
dispelled during the day. Fresh air

The age ut which any nut trees
come into bearing depends on the
care given to the trees. Some authori-
ties state that fifteen or twenty years
are necessary to bring them into full
bearing, from the time the nut is
planted. This is mistake, as trees
that have been well cared for should
bear bushel OF nuts in ten years, and
the quantity will increase rapidly
each year after hat time.
Some persons may enjoy raising
these trees from seeds; to be sure, it
is rather n slow process, but it is in
teresting work. When planting the
nuts, if they have thin shells, be per-
fectly sure that they have not dried
OUT Mt all. The best plan is to get
them as soon as they ripen, and
plant them at once. When this is
not possible, keep them in moist sand
or in sawdust until they can be started.
Butternuts, walnuts, hickory nuts
and filberts, being hard-shelled, will
keep in growing condition much
longer, but should be planted in the
fall, as they germinate better when
allowed to freeze, as that cracks the
shell.
The fall planting is natures own
plan, and the nearer we follow her
ways the better results we may ex-
pect. Another thing, do not plant the
nuts deep; nature drops them on the
surface and gives THEM thick cover
ing of leaves in which the dirt catches
ms 1T blows about, then the snow COW
ers all and helps the leaves to decay
and form covering of leaf mold for
the tree to grow in.
1t is not practicable for any of us to
thy to raise all these kinds of nuts,
but select the ones most likely to sue
coed In our climate, and by proper
care and atte ntion make a success of
1t. We may not reap the benefit of our
labors, but our children will and
theirs after them. -Vick's Magazine.

Early Pigs Best.


Wherever farmer has warm base
ment stables it is easy to make n hog
pen in one corner and use it for the
breeding sows. Every one admits
that pigs dropped early in March will
prove much more valuable than those
born month OF two later. 1t is
some extra trouble to keep them
warm, and they will also need extra
feeding for both sows and pigs while
the cold weather continues. But
when the warm days come the early
pigs that have n run IN pasture and
plenty of milk will be far better fitted
for heavy corn feeding than will the
late spring pigs. There,is often a diff
ference of fifty to seventy five pounds
in hogs fed just the same, and whose
only difference is that the heavier
were born four to six weeks earlier
than the others.
