The Landlords Three B's.

Forty years ago the landlord Of a
hotel upon Broadway, New York,
which Was successful although not
fashionable, said to some one who
asked him the secret of his success
that 1t consisted in being faithful to
the three BIS. If he had not drawn
as conspicuous a clientage as the st.
Nicholas or the Metropolitan, then two
of the most famous of American hotels,
he nevertheless filled his house with
contented guests and made money.
To-day that same landlord is able to
Withstand all of the intense COMPETE
ton which has brought despair to
many New York hotels once famous,
and he still insists that il is the three
BIS which have kept him in the path
of prosperity. These letters are syno-
nyms for the words bread, butter and
beds.-Chautauquan.

of the most troublesome and many
times dangerous of diseases. If care
is taken to feed what will digest nat
urally, the developing process will con-
tinue regularly, and the chicken will
grow accordingly.
Again food cannot be ground up in
the gzzard without the material for
grinding it. This is nothing but small,
sharp stones, called grit, and these are
as necessary as the food itself.
While we are devoting attention to
our pullets in order to get early eggs,
we must not pass our cockerels by.
What pertains to the feeding of the
young females also applies to the
young males. Frame first, and flesh
and fat afterwards. Our cOckerels
can be marketed as ROSTERS at lbs,
dressed weight, and they will then
bring a high figure. They should, if
Matched the last of February, weigh
that by September, provided, as we
have said of pullets, they have been
properly developed.
In general terms, it matters little
what sort of food we feed, provided
we feed it for an object, and adhere
to the fundamental principle of diges
ton, which is plenty of exercise.

of producing from IT'S to 1856 eggs per
annum, in the hands of careful breed
ers.
AS market fowls, the cOckerels are
larger than Leghorns and present a
much plumper carcass. The only
drawback, and this is purely fancy in
the buyer, is white flesh and black
legs. In this country the tendency is
always for a yellow carcass and yellow
legs, while in England, France and
other European countries this is no
drawback at all, the quality of the
flesh being preferred to color, as it
should be.
AS fowl for the general farmer,
Black MinOrcas cannot be recommend
ed. Their enormous combs compel
them to be warmly housed in winter.
Males and females alike carry such
large head appendanges that there is
danger of their being nipped by the
first severe frost. This not only de-
tracts from their appearance, but in
my opinion, Injuries their laying and
breeding qualities.
AS chicks, they hatch and grow well
and mature early, thus being ready to
lay among the first pullets of any
breed in the fall. They lay at once
after maturity, and before the Leg
horns. Ii, as | have said, they are
kept comfortably warm, they will lay
regularly all winter.
They have been appreciated in Eng
land for many years, and 1 am glad to
say they are kept in greater numbers
in this country each year.
They deserve to rank as producers
and money-makers among our best
fowls. The size of their eggs and their
uniformity command, in fancy trade,
a higher price than others.
They are hardy and easily kept. In
fact, where useful and beautiful quail
tiles are sought for in the same fowl,
no breed can better fill the bill.

Brahmas, and accordingly bought two
prize winning hens to put with my
rooster. and am now breeding the va
riety which I always expect to keep.
They are almost equal to the turkey

Black MinOrcaS.

e. O. ROessle, writing in Country
Gentleman, tells of his preference
for the Black Minorcas, in the follow
ing article:
The majority of fowls lay brown
eggs; those that lay white are very
few. l used to think that the best
white egg and the most of them were
laid by the White LeghOrns, but within
the last two years, experimenting with
ether breeds, | have decided that ;ie
largest white egg is produced by the
Black Minorca. AS to quality, I an
inclined to think that these same
fowls are as heavy layers as any
breed. OF course good layers of any
breed can be made better layers. Egg
winners, by judicious and scientific
mating and breeding, hence Black
MinOrcas can be made the greatest
layers by following carefully skillful
breeding. Breeding from the best
layers of this breed will produce a
wonderful laying strain.
The proof that Black MinOrcas are
profitable and popular is apparent at
our largest shows. Within two years,
and in fact at the last two shows at
Madison Square, this class was one
of the largest. Not only were there a
number of exhibitors, but each exhibit
tor seemed anxious to show big
String" OF course large and valu-
able silver cup was great inducement
to compete for, but the quality of the
specimens was proof that the Black
Minorca is receiving great attention,
and that breeders of this variety are
improving by great strides.
Like all the Mediterranean class,
Black MinOrcaS are nervous and active.
They are good fOragers and very do
nestle in their habits. Unlike the Leg
horns they do not fly high They are
the largest of the whole class and de-
velOp a much larger and plumper car
cass. In fact, they are more compact,
with less waste.
In appearance they are, in ny Opin-
ion. the handSOmest black fowls. They
have but one rival in this color, and
that is the Langshan. They are more
symmetrical than the latter and more
graceful The black color IS a better
true black, and the crest, srlrmounted
by an enormous red comb, AMI the rcd
face beneath, give them the palm in
contour and contrast.
They are a non-sitting variety, and
occupy their entire time in laying eggs,
barring the moult. They are capable

stock has been properly cared for, our
hens should be we'll along in the mOult,
and necessarily our egg supply is run
ming short. 1t is little to early to
look for eggs from our pullets, unless
from the very early Matched from Feb
ruary. Last spring, and in fact, the
whole breeding season-it seemed to
be very stubborn fight to raise chick
ems, and our hens were very uncertain
in their attention to incubation. Why
this was So canOt explain, nor have
| found any other breeder who could
1t remains fact nevertheless, and
we must stand it, like other unfortu
nate conditions of our pursuit.
We are, therefore, between seasons,
as it were, and without eggs. We sec
our mOulters dropping off, and long i'm,
patiently for our pullets to begin. We
may expect a beginning from our
young stock the last of September,
perhaps Meantime, our duty is not
the less difficult; in fact, we must not
neglect these youngsters. They will
not lay early unless we do our utmost
to develop them. 1t might just as we'll
be thoroughly understood that pullets
do not lay until they are fully devel-
oped. The sooner we can perform this
feat, the quicker will they begin to
earn us something and repay for the
outlay they have cost us in the past.
Developing pullets is not an easy
ing food into young, growing stock is
the worst thing possible for them, I'M
less they are given absolutely free
range. AS has been written many
times in this journal, the frame must
be formed first before the young chick
en- can carry flesh. Therefore, frame
forming food, like wheat, oats, bran,
middlings and the like, is the proper
food for such a purpose. Corn, which
to the inexperienced seems the only
food for chickens, is not good except
in small quantities, say one-third to
tWO-thirds of the Transforming food
w sep the frame is formed then III ,'';
fatttling food sho L. De given. The
proportion of corn can then be ~
creased.
We do not believe in feeding growing
chicks whole corn at any time. They
gulp It down too quickly and it simpl!
hangs in the crop and digeSis slowly.
Cracked corn, ON the contrary, an
swers the same fattening purpose, and
from it's size is more difficult to eat
In other words, they have to work
harder to get it, and that is just what
we are after. Chickens are not hogs,
and should not be fed in the same way.
The hog has the popularity of eating
it's food in gulping manner, and it
matters little how bulky or how coarse
the food may be. A hog has stomach
which seems to never cause him indl
eestiOn. Indeed. from his stomach we
derive the pepsin which helps digest
the food in our own, when nature re-
fuses or neglects to act.
Chickens, on the contrary, are SUBJ
iect to indigestion, and they must be
fed carefully and judiciously at all
times. Not having a stomach, the 1000

LADYSMITH got its name from the
wife of General Sir Harry Smith,
whose marriage was one of the ro-
mances of the Peninsular war. At tn al
time two young British officers in a
Spanish town, which had just been &C.
cupied by an English force, were sur
prised by visit from two very young
and beautiful Spanish girls of the bet
ter class. These fair callers. Gays an
exchange, begged protection in the
alarming circumstances in which they
had been placed by the occupation of
the rougher soldiery. Their request
was, of course, gallantly granted, and
in short time one of the officers, Cap
tain Smith, found himself desperately
in love. In due time he married the
woman whom he had protected. The
marriage proved happy one.
