Foul Seeds.

1t would be impossible to compute
the loss by the use of poor and foul
seeds each year. We can test seed and
find out what percentage of it does not
terminate, and thus estimate possible
increase in the amount necessary to use
for a field, or the decrease Of crop II
we fail to make that allowance. But as
the cost Of caring for and harvesting
the product Of an acre Is nearly the
same whether the crop Is large or small
the cost Of growing bushel or a ton
Increases as the yield diminishes. But
even this could be more easily borne
than the cost of caring for the crop.
as 1t Is increased and its value dimin-
ished by an admixture of foul weeds in
the seed we have bought. We could
easily afford to pay much higher prices
for seeds If we could have guarantee
Of their purity. The Agricultural De-
partment has done some good work in
examining both homegrown and i'm
ported seeds, and while they have
found most Of the varieties of seeds
which we export to be reasonably free
from foul seed, and thus have helped
to find greater sale for them abroad,
they have also found that some varie-
ties which we import are badly mixed
with the seed of undesirable weeds,
particularly from certain sections.
where they must be either dishonest or
criminally careless. Whichever 1t may
be, these inspections may help to re-
duce the evil, but 1t will be only when
there shall be capable inspectors au-
thorized to thoroughly examine and
brand packages of seed. and provide
for the adequate punishment Of those
who sell seed for what it Is not, that
farmers will have the protection which
they have a right to demand.-Ameri-
can Cultivator.

Cured at 6 o'clock. at time when the

The team was hitched to delivery

Lice on Chickens.


We use once a week little kerosene
and lard mixed, and rubbed on the
breast and under the wings of the
mother hen, and good sprinkling Of
the kerosene over the litter In the night
quarters. This is all done after the
chickens 60 to roost. The fumes Of
the kerosene will finish all the lice On
the bodies of the chicks. and the lard,
which they will rub from the mother
on to their heads, will do for those on
the heads. There is no danger Of suffo-
eating the chicks, as In the summer
time they will invariably roost with
their heads out from under the hens
wings. Adopting this method We are
never troubled with lice on our chicks,
twenty-five years l have never seen .
mite. My neighbors have all been
troubled with them, and the only rea.
son that have not Is because the quar-
tiers for the hens are kept very clean,
by the use Of plenty Of kerosene; and
l never overcrowd my chickens. The
late Matched chicken is surely worthy
md that there is nice little sum Of
money to be made In this way.-Geneva
March in Epitomist.
weedy MIX.
There are weedy pastures In the land,
and there are pastures free from weeds.
says the Creamery Journal. 1t is plain
that the more milk from clean pastures
and the less from weedy pastures We
have in the creamery the better the
chance to get good flavor. The
creamery manager, in order to man.
age, must know the farm conditions
Of each and every patron. and the
weedy milk must be separated SO as to
run as little milk as possible into the
cream. As it is not practicable to keep
all the milk from clean pastures sepa-
rate from that coming from weedy pas
lures at the weigh can-at least it may
not be practicable-the proper caper 10
to separate all the cream. thick and
rich, running the minimum Of milk into
the cream. then take same cans Of
milk from patrons with pastures free
from weeds. patrons who are neat and
tidy, who keep the milk pure and un.
contaminated, and dump this milk
straight into the cream vat in sufficient
quantity to insure the right percentage
Of fat in the cream and cause 1t to
ripen in time.-Creamery Journal.
Poultry on the Farm.
The farmer Is the backbone Of the
poultry industry. If we except the Gus.
toner. We mean that the farm remains
the chief source Of supply of market
poultry. We say remains" advisedly,
because the greater opportunities
which the farmer has at his door are
gradually being stolen from under his
nose by the large poultry farms which
are springlng up and have for years
been springing up all over the country
poultry farms wrich are established to
supply market poultry and eggs Of .
superior class. How long the farm will
remain the source of supply depends to
a great extent upon the farmer. and he
has not yet settled in his mind that
poultry breeding pays. There are few
farmers here and there who know 1t.
but they keep the knowledge to them.
