THE HENS IN WINTER.
To Prevent Diseaaes They Must Re
kept Dry and Warm and Pro.
tected from Exposure.

While roup may not exist in the
flock, yet hoarseness, rafting in the
throat, blindness, ETC., are common
ailments. They are mostly due to
colds, and are usually caused by en-
posture to draufts of air at night,
either from a crack or crevice in the
wall, from top ventilation, or from
exposure during the day to high
winds. 1t is very annoying, and af-
fects the fowls that are very fat more
than others. As the nostrils are usual
ly closed, also, the giving of liquid
medicines sometimes results in stran-
gulation. Keep the birds dry and
warm, away from drafts of any kind.
Inject one or two drops of camphor-
ated oil into each nostril, let the bird
be quiet (as exercise seems to increase
the difficulty, and give pill the size
of three-cent silver piece in diam
eter three times day, composed of
equal parts by weight of quinine,
bromide of potash and red pepper
After so doing swab the throat with
solution made by dissolving a
piece of blue vitriol as large as bean
in a gill of warm water, using soft
rag on a stick. Feed on nourishing
food, such as chopped lean meat. The
main point is to keep the bird dry
and warm. If the breathing is very
severe give two drops of spirits of
turpentine on bread-crumb once a
day. A teaspoonful of beaten raw
egg is also excellent.-Farm and Fire

WEAKNESS OF HUMAN NATURE
ance Agent Who Was Inter.
ested in the Fire.

"Talk about the frailties of human ma.
ture," said well-known insurance agent the
other day, relates the Kansas City Journal,
"no one else has so good an opportunity to
discover them as an insurance man. An in.
cident occurred few days ago that showed
me side of neighbours character WHICH
l had never suspected to exist. A fire broke
out in his home, and, do you know, that
man went three blocks to telephone to re-
port it, when there was phone right in his
house.
II saw the fire soon after it started, and
rushed to give assistance. 1t was while help.
ing to pack the things out that discovered
the phone, and turned in the alarm. Now,
it takes strong stretch Of the imagination
to believe that the owner had forgotten
there was telephone in his house. That he
should have acted as he did undermines
ones faith in people in general.
'"Think of it. There was sweating and
endangering my life to save his property,
while he was anxious, evidently, to have it
burn. Such conduct doesn't encourage one
to exert himself for others"
"By the way" interrupted listener, "did
any Of your companies hold policy on that
house,"
"Now, you are asking leading question"
replied the insurance man, with guileless
smile. ''What am saying is that the &C.
tions of that man are sad commentary on
human nature"

Next Summer's HOG Pasture.

Hog raisers should be looking for
ward to the hog pasture for next year
and preparing for it. 1t often takes as
much time to plan successfully as to
execute successfully, hence we cannot
begin too early to plan for the new
campaign. 1t is mistake to suppose
that any one kind of grass or plant
will serve as hog pasture all through
the year. A number of forage plants
should be available. The first of these
is blue grass, which comes in in the
spring and will carry the hogs forward
to the time the young clover is high
enough to eat. When the clover gets
too old to be succulent, there should
be a field of rape available, and after
that may come COW peas in sections
where COW peas can be grown.-Farm-
ers' Review.

THE KENTUCKY QUEEN.
Editor OF Blue Grass State Paper
Finds New Name for the
Busy Hen.

We have read of Maud on a sum
mer day. who raked, barefooted, the
new-mown hay; we have read of the
maid in the early morn, who MIXED
the cow with the crumpled horn; and
we've read the lays that the poets
sing of the rustling corn and the flow
ers of spring; but of all the lays of
tongue or pen, there's naught like the
lay of the Trimble hen. Long, long
before Maud rakes the hay, the Trim
BILE hen has begun to lay; and ere
the milknaid stirs peg, the hen is
up and has dropped her egg; the
corn must rustic and flowers spring
if they hold their own with the barn
yard ring. If Maud is needing hat
and gown, she doesn't hustle her hay
to town; she goes to the store and
obtains her suit with basket full of
her fresh hen-fruit; if the milkmaid's
beau makes Sundays call, she
doesn't feed him milk at all but
works up eggs in a custard pie and
stuffs him full of chicken fry; and
when the old man wants horn, does
ne take the druggist load of corn?
Not much! He simply robs a nest
and to town he goes-you know the
rest. He fingers there and he talks,
perchance, of true reform and correct
feenance, while his poor wife stays
at home and scowls, but is saved
from want by those self-same fowls;
for while her husband fingers there
she watches the cackling hens with
care, and gathers eggs, and the eggs
she'll hide till she saves enough to
stem the tide. Then hail, all hail! to
the Trimble hen, the greatest blessing
of all men! throw up your hats and
make Rome howl for the preserving
barnyard fowl; Corn may be king.
but it's plain to be seen the Trimble
hen is the Kentucky queen.-Milton

The Perfect Market Lamb.

In feeding lambs for market the
feeder must have in view the fact that
there is most demand for the lamb
that has fat and is plump at the
weight of 100 pounds. This type is
one that is not too much boned and
big framed. but such as require only
a small amount of flesh to make the
carcass smooth and plump at the
weight indicated. When it comes to
feeding yearlings, then a larger
framed sheep, one with smooth and
deep flesh at 1873 to $50 pounds, is the
one that is desirable. The feeder
must have these facts in mind when
he considers the ideal type for the
feed lot. in addition to q considera-
ton of that which gives the greatest
rain.-Rural World.

HOG LOUISE; HIGHLY MAGN1F1ED

to know how to apply it with the least
trouble, and then apply it regularly,
at stated times, until the pigs are
clean and thrifty. Then do not think

keep a constant watch and be ready
to begin another war on them.
have used coal oil, kerosene emul-
sion, decoction Of tobacco, carbolic
acid and some of the "sheep Dips"
and know that all of them are sure
death to the lice when properly mixed
and vigorously applied. For cheap
ness and effectiveness the kerosene
emulsion is preferred above all the
others.
have applied all these, rubbing on
with cloth or sponge, by spraying
with bucket pump and with the
knapsack sprayer. A very thorough
job may be done by washing with a
sponge, but this is not practical in the
case of hogs being grown for mar
ket, and these are the ones that gen.
orally need treatment oftenest. The
bucket pump cannot be shifted about
the pens readily enough to be of any
great value. ......- ....
It seems to me that there is but
one best, practical way to apply these
washes, and that is with the KNAPP
sack sprayer. With it, the work can
be done so easily and perfectly that
I have come to regard it as an abso-
lutte necessity on the hog farm. We
have had one of the best for several
years, which cost $3.50, and if a new
one had to be bought every second
year, l should consl.er the money
well spent.
In spraying hogs it is not best to
do the work while they are merely
eating slop or other feed. Thorough
work cannot be done in this way.
The hiss of the nozzle and the spray
striking them will scare the most
hoggish hog away. The better way is
to get the hogs in close pen, get
the mixture in the tank, get the tank
on your back and get yourself over
in the pen. Try to remember that
the mixture costs but trifle, and
don't save it. Spray them until every
hog is dripping wet all over, and
there will be no lice in that bunch
for few days. Then repeat the proc
ess. It is but little trouble, costs but
a few cents, and will pay better than
any other way that amount of money
and time can be spent.-Ohio Farmer.

FIGHTING LICE ON HOGS.
ton II . Problem That II Pus-
sling Many Farmers.

Ever since we began raising hogs
the hog louise has given trouble more
or generally more. 1t is one of
the drawbacks to successful hog
growing. Lice must be kept in SUBJ
lection if the pigs are to do their best.
The average farmer has more to do
than can be looked after properly,
and this is one of the things that is
apt to be neglected. There are many
preparations that will kill every
louise it touches and it is no great
task to apply them. But we should
bear in mind that when the herd is
once infested with them the nits are
Matching all the time, and one or two
applications do but little good. The
fight must be kept up for weeks,
sometimes months, and there must be
a careful watch for them always. 1t
is important to know what will kill
hog lice, but it is far more important

American Flax in Germany.

Consul Mason reports that there is
an opening for American flax in Ger
many. There is in eastern Saxony
and southern Silesia a very important
linen industry, the raw material for
which flax fiber) is mainly imported
from Russia and Austria, the imports
of 1899 having been 49,736 tons, of
which 45,177 tons came from Russia.
Flax is free of duty under the German
tariff. By reason of short supply and
high prices, there would seem to be
now an opportunity to introduce the
American fiber as raw material for
Germany's linen manufacture. the fin
ished products of which are exported
in large and steadily increasing de-
gree to the United States. Consul Ma
son also says there is demand for
American faXseed.

sequence have to travel many miles
over roads that would wear out their

Preparing Hogs for Market.

In order to finish a hog he should be
on full feed of corn, but after you have
got him as fat as he can be without
distracting from his comfort put him
on the market at once, for he is very
unsafe to keep, because hog fatted
on corn diet is very tender and cannot
stand any abuse or disease. The hogs
kept for breeding purposes should
never be put on corn diet, but should
be fed feed that has more bone and
qualities.
