can not improve upon nature. A
tried way Is always the best.
If you have been feeding your hens
properly they may not want to sit
early, but your neig bbOr, who feeds
corn, can supply you. In the country
it Is always possible to get a sitting
hen when needed, 1t Is cheaper to
pay 90 cents for such hen in April
than to have one given you n month
later.
Often the hens will not need feed
ing at all In the morning, after the
spring opens; and n small feed will
do in any event. If they have a good
range they will hasten out to hunt
bugs or eat grass, preferring these to
anything else. Then do not feed
until they come in at night.
One pound of turkey meat, as a
rule, brings as much as two Of pork
and often three times as much, and
yet the cost of the two does not differ
greatly when the turkeys are raised
on the farm.
The coolest weather does not seem
to affect turkeys, and stormy days
and nights leave them uninjured.
After the first few weeks of their
lives they are the hardest fowls we
have, being native to the country
and perfectly able to endure any
stress of weather.
There is nothing goes ahead of q
tender roast duck, and the farmer
who feast5 on one has the added
consolation that the delicate morsels
are not to him very expensive; it
has been largely made from farm
wastes.
1t is never we'll to attempt to heat
a hen coop by placing stove there
in; 1t can not be so managed az to
keep an even temperature. 1t is
possible to keep the birds perfectly
comfortable in cold weather by the
employment of double windows
shutters, layers of thick wall paper
or by plastering the coop. Good
feeding will do the rest. The hea
from their own bodies will, in gooC
quarters, keep them comfortable.

There will be plenty of planting
done this spring; the prosperity in
store will depend upon whether the
tillage is such as to ensure good
crop.
Plant corn as soon as the soil is dry
enough; 1t is always warm enough
when 1t is sufficiently dry.
We often let our grain crops get
smothered; we are too tender with
them. If the ground is crusted in
the wheat field, harrow it.
Rather than get the boys in the
way of specializing about what they
will do with their share when you
are dead, give them something for
their own while you are living.
Treat lad right in this regard, and
he will want you to live forever.
Potatoes are not much injured by
the shade, and are a good crop to
grow in the young orchard; and the
potash which is good fertilizer for
the one is also good for the other, or
we can grow corn among the young
trees, and for two or three success
sive years.
1t will always pay to do our level
best, whatever prices may be. Ii
the profit from field or beef ami
NAL is small, it would have been
much smaller had the crop or the
animal been apoor one.
There Is too much of the grind on
the farm, generally, for thai which
can be counted or measured. There
is too little relaxation; too few
books. There are many homes with
almost no reading matter. The faith
er breaks the n.onotony by getting
to town and meeting his friends, but
the wife gets very little in touch
with the outside world, and the
children are in a clGister. The pre-
dominating number of female in
mates of asylums for the insane are
the wives of our farmers.

To haul out all the barnyard man

1t is claimed by many that milk

buttermilk-is the best food known
for laying hens. We are urged to
feed the surplus milk to the poultry

Lettuce is both food and medicine

Egg shells are almost pure carbon

Horticulture,

Always keep the orchard complete
and profitable. The only way is to
get the vacant places in the rows
refilled promptly.
With plant, its first growth should
be the best. Keep the ground mellow
and moist by frequent cultivation ;
this warns the soil, starts the plants
early, makes plant food more avail
able, and lessons the liability to
injury from frost, drouth or insects.
Often the lack of profit from our
work can be measured by the miss
ing hills. If fruit plants have failed
to grow, set ont new ones in their
place at once, for this means not
only profit for this year, but for sew
eral to come, often.
Do not shade the soil in the berry
patches by heavy underground. 1t
is admissible TO grow potatoes or
other vegetables between the rows
of those fruits which grow on bushes
for the first year, but there must be
no luXurianS crops to shade the
ground.
1t is we'll to mulch berry canes
during the winter with stable ma
nure, as the best berries come from
the strongest canes, and these are
found only in good soil. Keep the
rows narrow for convenience in
picking. Cultivate between them
just as long as possible, leaving a
little of the mulch undisturbed near
the roots. Berries become better as
the ground grows richer, and we
need entertain no fear of getting the
soil too rich. 1t is especially ueces.
sary to keep the soil well stirred
about the plants the first year.
