years ago The Chieftain pleaded
with the Cherokee people to &C.
cept allotment of land and avoid
the Pandora's box of evils that
even then prophesied themselves.
and that have since burst in fury
upon the tribe. Now the rank and
f!e of intelligent Cherokees are
willing and anxious to accept al
lotment; not from choice perhaps,
but as the only salvation for prop
erty rights. Itls now fully under
stood that only a small amount OF
land to the head will fall to the
Cherokees, perhaps not over l2O
acres, and the earlier they get 1T
with an absolute title the better.

Changing Plans.

The farmer who is continually chang.
ing his breeds OF stock or his favorite
crops is very seldom n money maker.
He is apt 10 find out that lie made the
change just little too late. He sees
some one making money on beef cat.
tie, and he abandons dairy farming TO
breed fat cattle, only TO learn that he
ought to have bred hogs. He tries
hogs, and becomes convinced that
sheep are more profitable. He gives
up a crop that he knows how TO grow
to take up some specially that his
neighbor has found a profitable one,
and few years experience teaches
him how 10 grow it, but it also teaches
him that he could have bought his ex.
perience much cheaper. We do not
mean that man should not change
his breeds OF stock, his crops or his
method of farming, but he will do well
TO make his changes gradually, and
not part with n good thing every time
be thinks any one else has a better
thing.

Starting the Turkey Crop.

Turkeys hatched in April and May
are the most profitable. The eggs are
very frequently placed under some
common domestic hens and the tur-
key hens are kept at laying. While
this is frequently done, it il not the
best plan, as the commen hen makes
poor mother for the yourg turkeys,
owing TO their disposition being too
active. Turkeys were expressly de-
signed 10 take care of their offspring,
aud they know how TO do this pant OF
their work to perfection.
1t requires twenty eight days Of in
cubation to bring out young turkeys.
But the first twenty -four hours after
they are hatched they require no food,
Dut should then be removed from the
nest TO a clean, roomy coop and given

Feeding the Colt Correeuy.

Good care, ample food and iudicious
exercise are the essentials in feeding
the colt. BY ample food is not meant
overfeeding. Some grain should be
fed during the summer, but not so
much that the little fellow will be
Indisposed TO eat freely of grass OF
other bulky food, for the latter is nee.
esssry TO the proper development OF
his stomach and digestive organs.
Two pounds Of oats day should be
given to the colt after weaning, and
he should be allowed TO learn TO eat
some even before weaving. Vary the
grain feed with barley or even corn
and il, occasionally, ground grain in
a thick slop is given, the effect will be
good. But this feeding should be
moderate, and not calculated TO de
velop too much fat.
