Poultry Notes.

One Of the essentials in the keeping
Of fowls healthy is to have the house
dry. This is particularly the case in
the winter, when the fowls have to be
indoors for weeks at a time. A wet
house is bad enough in the summer,
when the fowls have to stay in it at
night. but in the winter time 1t should
never be tolerated, partly for the rea-
son that the sun seldom has power
enough in winter time to dry up mois-
ture In the poultry house.
Science is all the time finding new
ways to take care OF surplus perish
able products. Desiccating eggs prom
ises to be a favorite way OF dispos-
ing Of them at times Of the year when
they are too cheap to pay a reasonable
profit at retail. New machines for do
Ing this work are from time to time
being invented. and perhaps the day
Is not far distant when the price OF
eggs will be about uniform throughout
the year. II the men that are doing
this kind OF work will simply be sat
isfed with what they can get for the
eggs as treated naturally, 1t will be al
timately a great gain to the poultry
interests. Unfortunately We may ex-
pect that the manufacturers of pre-
servatives will get after the desicca-
tors Of eggs and persuade them that
nothing will so ensure the keeping
qualities of the eggs as a little pre-
sentative added. The result of that
will be that the public will find it out
and curtail their purchases in that d.
rection. But the honest employment
OF methods Of drying might greatly re-
lieve the market at times OF oversup-
ply. Sooner or later the farmers wife
will learn to apply the method and the
farmers table will be cheaply supplied
with eggs in the winter as in the sum
mer.

Canadian Dairy Exports.-If Canada
can make money exporting butter, it
would seem a profitable industry for
farmers in the United States. Although
our exports are increasing somewhat
they are still woefully small, and this
is due to the poor reputation American
butter has acquired through the ship
ment abroad OF poor batter. oleo and
process butter. offered for sale as prime
American. In July our exports were
something over 10000 packages, but In
a single week recently Montreal ex-
ported $4,000 packages. The United
Kingdom imports annually about $780,
100000 pounds OF butter OF " hich only
about per cent comes from tie United
States. Why should not the govern
ment inspect American butter for ex-
port, the same as she does meat going
abroad. The officials of the agricul-
tural department believe the plan thor
oughly practicable. In fact. the repu-
tation Of Canadian butter and cheese
results from such an inspection. Can
ada will permit no exporting OF imita-
tion OF butter or cheese and her repu-
tation on both Of these articles is good.

upon yourself. Mr.. Rankin, when he
