Buying Birds Or Eggs.

Some prefer to buy fowls in the
fall, when they are cheap, while
others wait until spring to procure
eggs. Which mode is the better
one depends upon circumstances.
1t is usually the rule to buy a trio
of fowls-a male and two Lens-the
cost varying from So to $40, accord
ing to the quality of the stock.
The two hens will lay enough eggs
to permit of raising a hundred
chicks, of which fifty may be pull
let's. If one gets flock of twenty
five pullets, allowing for all draw
backs and the sales of culls, it will
be very fair return from the trio.
There is, therefore, a saving; he
will have to purchase eight or ten
dozen to get as good results as from
the trio. There is, also a saving
OF time in procuring the the trio.
1t is also more satisfactory to pro-
c ire the trio, as there are many

Reflective riders Of bicycles know
that the wheel is a great teacher Of
morals and philosophy.
1t teaches the folly of intemper-
ance alike in eating and drinking.
No man can be a strong and expert
wheelman who is not a sensible eater
! and a moderate drinker
1t teaches the wisdom Of looking
just far enough ahead TO avoid

far ahead as to borrow trouble
1t teaches the necessi J. Of getting
good start in climbl difficult
hill, and sticking to yvAr purpose if
you mean TO reach the top.
1t teaches the advantage Of being
always on the right side of the road
in your own proper place, attending
strictly to your own work and prog
ress.
1t also teaches the advisability Of
temporarily yielding your strict
rights when you meet an obstacle too
ugly to overcome on the spot-say
drunken teamster, driving a big
brewery wagon at full speed on the
wrong side of the road AS between
two evils, losing your right to that
particular position on the road or
losing your life, it gives you a quick
lesson in choosing the lesser

Amateurs in Poultry Business,

! tunes their work would do credi
TO experience. We believe thi
is especially true of amateu
poultrymen. We find every
where that the confidence whicl
experience gives tends to make
one grow careless. The amateui
lacks confidence and therefor,
dcvotes much time to discovering
| the defects of his birds. Not
even a good score card will cause
the amateur to overlook the dc.
fects. His standard of perfection
convinces him he has been cheat
ed and he buys again. The new
purchases as unsatisfactory as
the old one. There are defects
still.
The amateur knows that a per-
feet bird is yet to be bred, but
that is the bird he unconsciously
seeks. If you want ten dollar
bird for five dollars go to the am
ataur. He will feel that he has
cheated you and will lay awake
nights lest you find out your bird
is defective in comb. He does
not know that the bird will score
% points after a big cut on that
comb.
The amateur buys his first
stock of thoroughbreds from a
neighbor, who has preceded him
in the business. This fact alone
helps to open his eyes to the
faults of his stock, for ones
ncighbors are never looked upon
as being capable of very much.
A man would as soon believe tie
shirt his wife made was equal in
fit to store shirts, as to believe
his neighbor could breed fine
chickens; therefore he imports
his stock from distant country,
and his neighbors heat him at
the chicken show.
The amateur dares not let his
birds, the birds of his own rails
ing, see the light of the show.
He sneaks them up to the back
door and has the Judge score
them privately and wants TO kick
himself when they outscore the
prize winners he bought at big
show to bring to this one. After
one or two shows an amateur is
an amateur no longer.
We visited the poultry farm of
an amateur the other day and
we're filled with admiration as we
looked over his beautiful birds.
Six hundred young Brown Leg
horns were in sight. There
were also a couple of pens of
Partridge Wyandottes. All were
thrifty. The houses were not
the kind to make good picture
n poultry journal, but they
we're clean and sprayed very
often with lice killer. A spray
pump made this an easy task.
The man informed us that
lew years ago nothing was farth-
er from his mind than going into
he poultry business. He had
,ften told his wife that the hens
lte their heads off, before he got
.hese nice chickens. "There is
lot hen," he said, "that has
lot made me S1.5O this year and
he money is just like I found it.
Of course, we have worked with
he chickens, but not as we w ul |
expect to for the amount Of profit
We sell in the west and ship our
,ggs direct to the dealers. Eggs
or hatching have been in good
lemand, but not as much as if |
We advertised more"
The care this man gives his
chickens might put older poul- |
rymen to blush, if they ever do
,lush, He used an incubator
