Guilty in securing their turkeys, when they,

they cannot be surrounded ;or approached

attempts to catch: them increases their
wildness, and frequently the only way:
has been to Shoot them This is more apt
to be the case If the stock contains Wild
blood. Old hands at the business have
learned by experience the proper course
to pursue. The usual plan is to. get the
birds intoSEa barn Or carriage shed and

are fed for a long. time in front of or Just
within thelplace.i i'm which they are to be
caught: Later, the feed is placed within
the building, and they become. so familiar
with it that they are unsuspicious when
within. The feeder takes pains not to

LARGE and Small Farms...

b An observant visitor in billy, stony New
England cannot fail to be impressed with
the thought that if nearly as much ia Dor
| were expended upon an acre of the easily;
worked virgin soil of the fertile North
W, west as there is upon the aere in the first;
that would delight the; producers and
astonish the world. In New England
farms are small. and nearly all conditions
are SO unfavorab le,. from our standpoint!
that intense methods of farming are abso-
lutely necessary if; farm and farmer are
to be maintained. Yet the results ac-
complished under the tlnfavora bic eond-
tions and upon the limited acres make
one wish that the methods employed there
could be adopted .here,s where: they would
produce so much more abundantly. The
s"little farm we'll tilled;' even though it be
stony, billy and comparatively sterile
one, there proves to be the most profit
able; it might almost be said the only
profitable one. How much more profit
able. then, would, the3isame kind Of a
farm, both. in size and tillage, be in a
region where natural fertility and facility
Of cultivation are, as found in the North
sion of large, paid for.and successful, be-
cause well-tilled, farms into small ones,
but it is designed to suggest that it would
be far better for the large farm unpaid
for and without means or ability for first
class cultivation to be- converted into a
smaller one out of debt and that can be
well worked. 1t is also to suggest that
the young farmer must not think that he
must have big farm or none; that he
must either remain an :employe all bis
life or assume a big debt. with all of its
risks and burdens He can buy small
farm, pay for it. make himself a first
class farmer on it. and find an indepel,-
dence and prosperity. there that the big
farm with the tneuni brahte IF mort
gage upon it and indiffefehtly worked Will
never realize.--Farm, Stock and Home.

Seeding Down Pastures.

Inc seeding OF pastures is too difficult
subject to be treated properly in short
article. If pasture is wanted at once
plow and harrow the ground smooth, and
then sow rye and timothy, crossing with
clover in the spring. The rye will fur
LshS a great deal Of pasture in a very
short time, and besides it has a tendency
to keep down, the weeds. If rye is pas
tured close, until it begins to run up seed
stems. it will grow very fine and the cat
tie will eat it down, SO that very few
stems, will mature seed. My own plan
is to plow the ground in the fall, as deep
ly as the nature of the soil will permit,
say about five or six inches, and then in
the spring work it until it Is in good con
ditiOE. / would first raise two or three
crops of corn. Some seed a crop of small
grain. with the corn but prefer to pillow
up the stubble and then SOW winter
wheat: or rye. In sowing timothy do not
sow too early. as there often comes a
shower that will start the seed and, be-
ing followed by warm, dry. weather, it
will dry out and die. Follow this rota-
ton with clover in the spring; cut off your
crop of grain. and you should then have
a. good pasture. If it is desired to made
the. rotation shorter, omit one crop of
corn and one Of small grain, and sow
the rye and pasture it at once. This
will furnish a good, crop of feed, but
should the season be- wet, the cattle will
likely tramp up the ground before it has
had time to form sod.

MANKATo SWITCHING CASE.
Railroad commissioners Hear Ar.

gumentS.
The state railroad and warehouse commits
sioners have reserved their decision in the
Mankato switching charge case, brought by
the stone quarry firm Of Jordan & Hayes
against the Omaha and Northwestern roads
to have the charges for switching cars from
their lines to the lines of the Minneapolis &
st. Louis reduced from So to 81.
The complaint was made last summer and
the commission visited Mankato and took evil
named have reduced the charge from s. to
So, but are strongly opposed to any further
reduction.
The roads were heard yesterday afternoon.
Judge Thomas Wilson. for the Omaha and
L. L. Brown of the firm of Brown & Alb
bolt, at Winona, appeared for the Northwest
ern. Attorney General Childs was on hand
for the state, and General Freight Agent H.
NJ Pearce, of the Omaha, listened to the
statements of counsel
Ali the members of the commission were
present
The attorneys explained that, in hauling
stone from the Cuarries on the Northwestern
1t was necessary to engage the services of
special crews to switch to the tracks of the
Minneapolis & st. Louis, that the haul
amounted to three and a half miles each
way, and that the charge Of SO was really less
than the straight stone tariff for the dis
lance, and that a charge of 81 would be moth
ing but fair and equitable. The attorneys
prayed that no reduction be ordered by the
commission. AS stated, no decision was made
by the commission.
