THE GROWING STOCK.
Coaching Chicks 10 Roost-PoInts on

Teaching Chicks 20 Roost-Points on
Separating the Sexes.
Teaching the chicks to roost is often
a puzzle, particularly to beginners. Try
this method: Take low box or a wide
board resting on a block or brick and
put it where the chicks are accustomed
30 sleep. Have it large enough so that
all the chicks can get on It, After they
are accustomed to 1t gradually raise 1t
until 1t is foot from the floor. Most
of the chicks will go on It. Any that
do not you should place on 1t night aft
er night until they VIII go of their own
accord. When all have learned to get
up on the board, take it away and put
at the same height roosts four or FIVE
inches wide. Here Is another that
sometimes works well: Put one or two
peaceable old fowls Of either sex or a
few chickens that have learned to roost
in with the lot you wish to teach, wide
roosts being furnished, not too high
from the ground. Leghorns generally
need no instruction, and mixed lots Of
chicks containing Leghorns generally
follow their example very rapidly.
Don't think, though, that you can
NDach all chickens to roost Some breed
bTs of Asiatics never allow their fowls
% roost, and when you have stock
l:fom such fowls you are apt to find
Shat some of the chicks will never go to
eoost of their own accord

Cnnccrninr Eences-

The fences between pastures and cul-
tivated fields should be made strong in
the spring before the cattle are turned
out, but it is well to keep watch of
them at later times, especially if the
pasture grows scanty. Then a look
over the fence at a field of corn or way
ing grain is temptation that should
be guarded against, as it may not be
easily resisted. Then in some locali-
ties there is a class Of trespasSerS
who think little of throwing a stone
off the wall or letting down Il rail in
the fence to make an easier passage
for themselves when they go that way
cunning, fishing or berry picking Such
parties should be punished, but it is
not always easy to detect them. We
have seen half rod Of stone wall that
had been thrown down, apparently to
get out some Woodchuck or rabbit, and

mischief thought there was no need Of

The eldest Of all in the family,
Whose mother at work the whole Of the day;
And I'm that body. may as well sayl
There isn't baby in all our street
Who's nearly as pretty or half as sweet
As our little sally; but, oh. dear me-
It's strange now heavy that baby can be!
And Tommy's wonderful boy, | know,
But sometimes that child does bother me So
It's 'Iiush-a-by, baby" and Of she goes,
But. il put her down, that baby knows;
And as soon as she's fast asleep,
Then down on the door our Tommy will creep,
And it's, Don't wake baby; be quiet do;'
Or, Tommy, youll pull that cats tail in two.
But, perhaps, when body's worn out quite,
Her dear little mother will come in sight
Then it's, Polly, my pet what should l do
II hadn't a good little girl like you?
And somehow body feels glad Just then
She's grown up girl Of nearly ten!

FOR THE FARMER. !
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

A man who goes to farmers club
merely to talk and be listened to for
his own amusement might better stay
at home once In awhile and attend to
his neglected work, says The Rural
New Yorker Soclability should not
be discounted, but those who have
nothing but this and do not wish to
learn are not of much use to the club.
Nearly every association has some
member who tries to monopoliZe the
time. He bowls about capital and la
bor-though he has but little of the first
and does less of the sCcond-crop fail
ures and calamities, trusts and monop-
olies, while he himself is running the
biggest kind of talk trust. If he were
an ineXhauStible source of practical
agricultural knowledge, it would be
different. 1t Is refreshing to hear a
man talk common sense peppered with
original ideas for an hour, but when
one who can tell all he knows that is
of interest to Others in five minutes
and takes up an hour he makes a
drought. Such people talk their neigh
bors and friends tired and themselves,
their families and live stock poor, while
some man who does more thinking
than talking could give valuable bits
Of experience if given an opportunity
and encouraged a little. The farmers
club with chairman who has the tact
to draw out the thinkers and make the
takers draw in a little is fortunate.

A Kind Emperor.

During four months visit in Berlin
last winter, says a well known tray
eler, | noticed numerous sand piles sur
rounded by happy children of all ages,
and, wondering why they were allowed
the privilege of scattering the sand in
this otherwise very tidy city, | made
inquiries and learned that before the
old Emperor William died he ordered
large piles of sand to be placed at in
tervals in Inter den Linden and also
in all the large parks throughout the
city for the benefit Of the poor children
The pleasure proved to be so great
that the children of all classes, rich
and poor, mingled together, all armed
with spoons, paddles, buckets and
pans. In Victoria park, which is stu
ated in the poor" district, there is one
solid acre of tue white sand, where on
a fine day hundreds of children dig and
play, enjoying the kindness of the old
emperor. This impressed me as the
greatest kindness ever witnessed.
