THE LARGER PRAYER.

THE LARGER PRAYER.
AT first prayed for Light
Could but see the way,
How gladly, swiftly would walk
To everlasting day
And next prayed for Strength.
That | might tread the road
With firm, unfalterlng feet, and win
The heavens serene abode.
And then | asked for Faith
Could | but trust my God.
I'd live EMBODIED In His peace.
Though foes were all abroad.
But now I pray for Love.
Deep love to God and man.
A living love that will not fall.
However dark His plan.
And Light and Strength and Faith
Are opening everywhere.
God only waited for me TIL
prayed the larger prayer.

ing. Often in July and August the old
hens would go to laying again and still
run with the flock, thus furnishing US
with eggs for cooking purposes the
rest of the summer. About the middle
of September we began feeding them
for the market. We usually fed corn
exclusively, but sometimes we would
feed small potatoes cooked and mash
ed with corn meal. They were always
fed all they would eat, but had their
liberty, never shutting them up until
the day before killing. They were
dressed in the best possible manner
and sent to a city market few days
before Thanksgiving day, and never
remember getting a low price. We kept
no pure breed. I think a medium sized
turkey sells better and will be full
grown and plump, while the extra
large take longer to mature and if
dressed before fully grown often show
pin feathers. Since coming to Texas
| have had to make some changes in
the raising of turkeys. They do not re-
quire so much feed, as they pick up
most of their living after they are half
grown. And when young the lice and
mites will bother.-Mrs. A. w. Trum-

three, two of them killed, out of 1870

dry house. The south side is screened
with chicken wire and can be opened
to the sun. On cool days do not let
the hens out, but the chicks can run
out and in. The side of the coop is
like two large doors and can be raised
to any height or sloped down to make
a roof to- keep off rain. I feed coarse

Poultry.

Give lime for growth Of bone and for
egg she'll material.
A laying hen should have her food
and drink at regular intervals.
A little cayenne pepper in the food
will generally stimulate laying.
If the hens show an inclination to
pull feathers, feed them salt pork.
Young ducks can be marketed at
about five pounds weight and should
attain this weight in four weeks.
The eggs of the White Leghorn,
Black Minorca and Houdan are about
of the same weight as those of the
Light Brahma.
One dollar year is the average cost
for keeping each fowl. If the fowls
are of good strain each should give
that much profit.
In the selection of eggs for Matching
purposes choose those from the hens
that are the best layers, most vigorous
and best in form.
Ten dozen eggs is the average estl-
mate given as the production of the
hen. Ducks are said to average about
ten dozen and turkeys four dozen.
Eggs intended for Matching should
not be kept over four weeks. They
should be turned every day or two.
Thirteen eggs are generally considered
enough for sitting, though many
breeders now place under the han as
many as fifteen.
Introduce new blood into your poul-
try once a year, but do not change the
breed by cross-breeding. If dissatis-
fed with the breed you have don't try
to cross it out by breeding. Sell it out
and start with pure-breds, or with
pure-bred cock and good, strong,
healthy common hens.
The reason for feeding skim milk to
fowls is the excellent one that it con-
tains more completely than any other
food all the elements necessary to pro-
mote growth and stimulate vigor in
the performance of all the natural
functions. Skim milk is one of the
best egg producing foods that can be
given to poultry, and fowls fed on it
will lay more eggs in a. given length of
time, and will continue laying a longer
time than will fowls deprived of it,
though otherwise kept under the same
conditions. This fact gives to the
farmer who has surplus of skim milk
a decided advantage in supplying the
market with eggs.-Ex,

turkeys ON the farm "back east at the
old home. We kept four hen turkeys,
keeping the hens if they were good
layers and mothers, until they were
three or four years old. Usually get
ting a fine young gobbler from some
other flock, as turkeys will soon be in
ferior in size and strength if they are
inbred. Our turkeys we're fed with
The laying chickens through the win
ter and also roasted in the same
house, but it is not a good idea to have
them roost together, as they will fight
the chickens, but they need a good
shelter to roost under. They usually
begin laying in April and averaged
seventeen or eighteen eggs each. AS
soon as they would go to sitting we
gave them generally seventeen eggs
each. Never try to raise young tur-
keys with a chicken for mother. We
made them a good nest and if they had
to be moved from the nest in which
they laid the eggs they were set in
box so that they could be shut up for
a few days. They were let off every
day for feed and water. Always give
whole grain while sitting. Sometimes
a few days before Matching, the eggs
were dampened with warm water.
When they are all Matched and about
twentyfour hours old they were taken
off the nest and taken to a small yard
which we usually made of three
boards a foot wide and ten or twelve
feet long, on some clean, dry place or
ON short, green grass partly in the
shade. We fed curd made of sour
milk of which there is plenty on the
farm. They were fed about five times
a day for the first week and after that
three times. When about two weeks
old oatmeal and barley meal or corn
meal were added with the milk curd.
We had to furnish them with grit and
used broken crockery, pounding fine
and fed twice a week. At night they
were put in clean coop with board
floor with the mother turkey. Our
turkeys were never wild so were easily
handled. After a few days old they
were allowed to run out after the dew
was off the grass. But it is better to
watch them the first day, as some tur-
keys will wander away and hide when
night comes. AS they were all Matched
about the same time they were all put
together in a large coop when the
young poults were about three Or four
weeks old, so that they will run in one
flock the rest of the summer. The old
gobbler is put with the others and ex-
cepting rare instances will hover the
young and fight enemies such as
hawks, ETC., the same as the mother
hen. They were given the whole range
of the farm for insects and the stub
BILE fields. We gave them regularly a
morning and night feed of the ground
grains mixed with skim milk after
they are half grown. We would have
to drive them up at night until about
two months Old after that they would
group themselves and often before
that age Whenever we saw thunder
