shelter for stock.

In this connection it may be well to
urge the providing of ample shelter
for stock during winter. DO not put
this off until winter comes. A large
percentage of the food eaten by ami.
mails in winter is expended in keeping
up animal heat. Protection from cold
necessarily reduces the expenditure
of food for this purpose, and the mat
ter resolves itself into the question
which is cheaper, shelter or food? The
answer might be little doubtful if
one went to the expense of building
very costly stables and barns; but even
in such case it is to be borne in mind
that stable lasts for great many
years, whilst food has to be provided
every year. But in our mild climate
it is not necessary to build expensive
barns and stables. A roof to keep Off
rain and any contrivance TO keep off
cold winds are a II that is needed.
Posts set in ground to support roof
of which may be taken down
and put under shelter in springer of
matched straw will answer for COW
ering, and pine brush leaned up on all
sides except the south will protect
against wind. Surely any farmer can
have such shelters.-Southern Guilt
vator.

Fattening Hogs.

Sweet potatoes have now pretty well
completed their growth and should be
fed very literally to hogs. Harder
crops, as peanuts, may be held back
for a later period, but potatoes, sor-
ghum and peas should be fed literally.
Peas are included not because they are
liable to inflry from frost but because
of their richness in protein or nitro
genous compounds, they supplement
the deficiencies in most other foods.
and animals thrive most on mixed RAJ
lions. AS an animal needs a certain
amount of each constituent of food in
certain proportions, if food is short
on one of its constituents, an animal
has to eat an excess of such food to
get the proper amount OF the deficient
substance, and the excess Of the other
constituents is thus practically lost.
One constituent, as rule, can not
take the place of another. Starch and
sugar can not make muscle. Push the
fattening hogs now all they will bear.
The weather will be cool enough for
them to eat heartily without injury,
but not cold enough to prevent their
fattening rapidly. There is no better
period in the year for fattening hogs
! than the next six or eight weeks. Do
not forget to feed moderately at first
any new food; there is always danger
of surfeiting, CT even worse results,
from overlooking at first. = Dixie

FARMER AND PLANTER.
THE IRISH POTATO.
Neglected Product ON the Southern Farra
for Which Millions of Dollars are
spent Every Year.

/ am surprised at the farmers OF the |
south, and especially myself, for neg
Letting to grievous extent the eX-
tensive cultivation of that most pro-
ductiye and wholesome and econom-
ical food plant, the Irish potato. Mil
lions of dollars go from the south
every year into the Golfers of northern
and western growers for something
that every farmer can raise in
abundance on his own farm here in
the sunny south. do not mean to as
sert that no potatoes are produced
here, for every farmer usually plants
from one peck to one bushel, being
governed by the size of his family,
and from May Is to July Is he has a
few potatoes. Except around cities
where market gardens are run, have
never seen an acre in potatoes on
single farm. For nine or ten months
of the year people in the country and
small towns and villages either forego
the luxury of these succulent tubers
or purchase them from local growers
at most exorbitant rates. With lit
tie care and attention, our own tables
might be supplied the whole year, and
the money paid for seed used and eat
ing potatoes might easily be kept at
home.
Of course, IL every farmer raised an
abundance, there would be no great
demand in our local market, but the
demand abroad for superior potatoes
is always good, and supplying our
selves instead of buying would be an
immense saving in single season. 1t
has been clearly demonstrated that
two crops Of potatoes may be success
fully grown anywhere in the south by
planting in February and again in Au-
| gust. Those produced in the spring
will supply our wants during the sum-
mer, and the fall crop can be stored
for winter use. There are several meth
DDS of putting themup tokeep through
| the winter, which will be discussed
later, and should anyone be so incred-
ulous as to have no faith in them lei

April to March 81, and they consti

sumptuous bill of fare. They SCI

BROILERS FOR MARKET.
A Few Hints to Those Who Contemplate
Catering to tho Demand for
Broiled Chicken.

Brpilers have made money for some
men; they have lost it for Others. The
difference in results was occasioned
by the difference in the men, their
ways of getting the birds from shell
to market, not in the broilers. Elk
pcrience is the best teacher, but it is
not advisable to pay too much for the
teacher. 1t would be folly for man
because he had money, to pay a pro-
lessor of mathematics in some of our
colleges $4,000 year TO teach his boy
the rudiments of mathematics when
he could get u teacher well yersed in
primary arithmetic for few dollars
per month. So it is folly for man to
go into the broiler business on large
scale for the experience. Learn by be-
ginning in small way. Read the ex-
perience of others; if possible visit the
broiler establishments of those who
have been successful in this line of
poultry farming. But after reading
and visiting do not think you know it
all, and invest several hundred or a
few thousand dollars and lose all in
learning how to make Lroilersi pay
Better make broilers a side issue till
should see that all thecleaning up, car
you have experience, or make it winter
business in connection with some work
that is at its height in the summer
fruit growing, for instance.
A good plan for STRAIT is to have
small brooder house and two incu-
bators with a capacity of 200 eggs
each. With this little outfit you could
run small broiler bushes in connec-
ton with other work from which to
get living. AS one becomes posted
in the business it may be enlarged un-
| til the whole time is devoted to it. In
| that broiler center of this country,
| Hammonton, n. j., there are men who
from October to July virtually abide
| in their brooder houses.
In going into this business remem-
Der there are some things that have to
| be had whether it is run on a small
scale OF Il large one. we ItleT HOW u
brioler raising as businessmen the
raising of few chickens on the farm
to be sold as broilers. First, there
must be incubators and place for
them; second, brooder house and
breeders; third, eggs, and fourth, fuel,
feed and other running expenses for
four or FIVE months before there is a
cent income from all this outlay. II
| only an incubator or so is used the
place" need not bc e house built ex-
pressly for the purpose. The same is
true as regards the breeders, though
a brooder house is more necessary
than an incubator house when the
business is run in small way.
II farmer wishes small broiler
plant in connection with the other
farm operations, he might put it in
charge of his wife or daughter, but he
should see that all the cleaning up, car
rying water and other such work is
done by the men folks that is not
woman's part of the business. Some

HERE AND THERE.

Haul in wood. Later it means half
the wood and twice the work. Ground
feed can also be stored while the roads
are good.
"A very common error in hog feed
ing is to mix up more soft food than
is needed. This accumulates in the
troughs and on the ground and sours.
If on the slopes there are running
streams in rainy weather which make
ugly washouts, they can often be
checked by placing fine brush or
swamp grass in them, weighing it
down with stones.
keep lookout for sheep that are
going on their knees. This is an indi-
cation that something is wrong with
the feet. Immediate examination
should be made, and what is wrong is
to be set right.
If hogs smell around their corn
before taking hold, and especially if
some of them take few bites and then
leave, something is wrong which needs
looking after. The trouble is usually
from over feeding.
1t certainly requires as much la
Dor to make pound of poor butter as
it does to make pound of the best;
it usually requires more, as it is not
churned SO quickly and the buttermilk
is not so easily gotten out.
-Beons and peas are very nutritious
foods, but are too stimulating to DO
given alone. Ground int, meal and
mixed with bran-chaff or dried grains,
beans make excellent feeding stuff Tor
almost all kinds of stock.
There are countries which grow
their pigs without corn, and feed tho
wastes of the dairy with barley. oats
peas or roots, and make lean hams and
bacon which are most choice. Thisac-
counts for the great favor with which
the English hold Danish cork.

A Pitiless God.

Almost as ancient as the earth itself
was Eros, the personiication of love.
Hesiod relates that he was among the
first of existing'things, and that he as
sisted Earth in bringing forth from
chaos the earliest forms of life and
beauty. Aristophanes and others wrote
of Eros as the son of Night. Later
poets sang of him as the sweet-minded
promoter of human affections. They
represented him as fair-faced boy,
winged and carrying bow with which
to infiict sweet wounds upon those who
came within range. Nor has Eros
ceased to exist even in this practical
day, for TO this day the poets sing OF
this iittle-winged god, as skillful and as
pitiless as in the days of old. The philo-
sophie myth of Eros and Psyche is one
OF the most beautiful of the ancient al
legories.-Detroit Free Press.
