SOME CENSUS LESSONS.
ORicinI Figures VIII show Wonder
full Decrease I'm the Number of
Farm Mortgages.

The statisticians ut Washington are
busy analyzing returns of the small
army of federal census takers. and be-
fore very long the public should be
able to know definitely some of the
results. The growth in population in
some of the big cities has been al
ready announced, showing splendid
gains during the last ten years. For
a long time there was decided drift
of the people from country to city.
But in recent years hints have not
been wanting that this movement has
been checked. In fact, in some of the
older country districts of the middle
and eastern states a decided trend
toward turning TO country life may
be noted. The federal census should
clear up all these uncertainties, how
ever, along with many other subjects
of dispute. One thing sure, it will
afford good idea of the splendid
growth of the agricultural interests
of the country. We believe it will
bring to the front so positively the
bettered conditions of farmers as a
class in the way or smaller average
indebtedness and decreased number of
mortgaged farms that it will be less
difficult in the future to borrow
money for Legitimate farm enter
prises. Furthermore, these facts
should impress country banks and
city capitalists with the splendid Sc
curity they have in loaning money on
farm property, this resulting in a
lower rate OF interest. There is
something radically wrong when
farmers are obliged to pay six to
nice per cent, while city people and
corporations can borrow money on no
better security at three and one-half
and four per cent.-Farm and Home.

AMONG THE POULTRY.

Thinning out all inferior birds
should be done with an unsparing
hand.
All houses that require repair should
now be attended to. See that all roofs
are rain-proof
II is not hard matter to keep the
poultry house absolutely clean, If it is
cleaned daily.
Nearly all cases of chicken cholera
are caused by filth. improper food or
lack of care. II is disease of the
bowels.
Before the fall rains set in is n good
time for storing under shelter good
supply of dry dust to be used under
roosts and in the dust box during the
winter.
All runs bare of grass would be all
the better for turning over once a
month. Before doing so. IL Is well to
scatter over good sprinkling of quick
lime.
Never keep cockrell simply because
he is pretty or tame. Unless he can be

A Cnrc for Egg EntIng.

Egg eating, says a poultry fancier,
can be prevented by keeping plenty
of ground bone, oyster shell and fine
gravel before your flock all the time,
so they may eat at will, and construct
the nest in dark place. BY doing this
yor will seldom be annoyed by those
egg eaters. On those that have formed
the habit. pare off the upper mandible
quite blunt. also the lower. and put
china nest eggs in nests; they will
work awhile at those artificial eggs,
and finding they cannot break them,
will yield. This is the best cure know
of.-Farmers' Review.

Keeping the Chicks Warm.

The editor of n western poultry jour-
nal says: Warmth is necessary to the
health and life of the chicks" That
is all right as far as IL goes, but that
one lone sentence does not go far
enough. Warmth is essential, but the
best kind is not the applied sort. 1t is
better to help chick to keep itself
warm than to keep it warm. Some ar
tifcial heat is necessary for brooder
chicks, but too much is worse than
none. 4 good many chicks are MUIR
dered each year by keeping them too
warm and coddling them. A healthy.
weii-bred, properly-fed chick ought to
supply good deal of it's own warmth
from within. Keep the chick comfort
able and well fed. Supply sufficient
heat to help them to warm up when
they want to, and provide way to get
away from It when they want to. Keep
your eyes on the chicks and not on the
thermometer.

the end bracing ceases to retain its po-
sition the life of that fence ends. and
the best of fences are oftimes con-
demned for the sole reason that the
end bracing has been defective. In the
cut is shown system of bracing which
we do not think has as yet met its peer,
and we believe if erected properly. will
give the best of service. The object held
in view in this plan is to obtain brace
that will not allow the end and sec
ond post to draw with the fence. as is
the case with single brace either
slanted or placed horizontal between
the posts. The illustration explains it.

BRACE FENCE POSTS.
Description of q Bracing system
which Is Said to Give Most
Satisfactory Service.

One of the greatest problems that
confront those who must replace their
old fences by n modern wire fence is
that of securing an effective system of
bracing. for the general elasticity and
life of wire fence lies almost wholly
in the manner in which it is braced
from the end posts. No matter how
good or how serviceable a woven wire
fence may be put up, just as soon as
