White Holland Turkey.

Mary L. Schaal: The White Holland
turkey hen makes an excellent mother
and the young turkeys mature earlier
than most breeds, and that appears to
be the thing desired; for what feed it
takes to keep a turkey will almost
fatten a pig. So the earliest maturing
bird is what we want. Some complain
that White Holland turkeys are not
large enough. The largest turkey is
not always the most desirable for mar
ket. People living in cities do not al
ways want ar extra large turkey, I'M
less for hotel or clearinghouse. The
White Holland turkey also makes a
better appearance dressed for the mar
ket, for they are naturally plump and
do not have unsightly black pin feath-
er marks on them, and when you one
sell them, people want them again.
The meat is juicy and not coarse, and
being small-boned these turkeys carve
to good advantage.
The White Holland turkey is docile
by nature and lacks the rowing dispo-
sition we find in some birds. That is
a very good trait-docility; for what
is worse than to be constantly running
after the turkeys, knowing they are
an annoyance to neighbors?

If so put on the upper combs at once,
with perforated metal between upper
and lower set. Here is the secret of
good honey and no loss of time with
the bees. Of bees have wintered well,
the writer finds that some need a SUI
per by May I'D The first story being
filed, raise it up and put another be-
tween the lower and the one you have
just raised. . . = While the bees
are Gaping the raised story they are
niling the second set. When the first
set is capped from half to t%hree-quar-
tiers it is ready to be taken off and car
ried to your extracting The
above is what we call the tiering sys-
tenn. In the first place, there is no
loss of time by the bees in Gaping
then you have a better crop-of honey,
so far as the bees can ripen it; and,
further, your bees are not overcrowded.
You see it is quite evident if you ex-
tract your combs before they are
capped over you have a grade of hon
ey just as the bees brought it in from
the blossoms. If so, you will only sell
that grade of honey to your customers
once.
Mr.. Dickson has a novel honey room
for further ripening his honey by rails
ing it to a higher temperature than it
reaches in the hive. The roof of this
room is partly of glass, and a large
window faces southwark so the tenn
perature will run up to 100 degrees.
The honey is placed in tanks, Is inches
deep, s feet long and 4 feet wide, lined
with the best of tin plate. Thus a
large surface is exposed to the drying
influence of this warm atmosphere.

Eggs in the Orient.

In the East Indian archipelago salt
ed ducks eggs are an article of diet,
says Pacific Rural Press. The new
laid eggs are packed for two or three
weeks in a mixture of clay, brick dust
and salt. They are eaten h~ard-boiled.
1t is said that in this region and in
India turtle eggs are also preserved in
salt. These products, while unusual,
do not necessarily suggest an unpleas-
ant article of diet. The same can
hardly be said of a Chinese product
which has often been described. Ducks
eggs are buried in the ground for ten
or twelve months and undergo a pc
culiar fermentation. The hydrogen
sulphide formed breaks the shell and
escapes while the egg becomes hard il
texture. 1t is said that the final prod
uct does not possess a disagreeable
oder or taste. Eggs treated in this OF
some similar way are on sale in the
Chinese quarter of San Francisco, ant
very likely in other American cities
A sample recently examined had thu
appearance of an egg covered will
d~ark-colored clay or mud.

Honey Extracted,

Before the Ontario Beekeepers' AS
sociation recently the production of ex-
tracted honey was discussed by Alex
Dickson of Lancaster, who said in
part:
There are two grades OF extracted
honey; good and bad. The latter is
obtained by taking it from the bees
too soon, while it is yet thin and I'M
ripe. To secure a good supply of the
former, proceed as follows: Previous
to the LIST of June see that your col
,onies are in good shape; supplied with
young queens the fall before. June has
now arrived. Watch close if the bees
are beginning to whiten their combs.

To My Many Friends-I am pleased
to make a report to you of the pleasant
visit my wife and l had in Western
Canada.
We visited the territories of AL
berta, A%ssiniboia, and Saskatchewan,
and found them far surprising our i'm
agination, but little did I expect to
find such rich, loamy soil, so much
of it, and so uniform in its level prai-
RE lay. / do think the soil of Canada
as a rule equals If not excels the fin
est prairie farm lands of Indiana
These lands are immense in thef1
richness, and when once the sod is rot
ted and pulverized, it is as pIiable and
as easily cultivated as Indiana sandy
soil.
Western Canada, from my point Of
view, offers as fine opportunities fol
mixed farming as any place in my
knowledge. The long, sunshiny days
together with the rich soil, produce
very fine wheat, oats, barley, flax anC
other cereal products. There is scarce
ly any attempt to raise corn, excep,
early varieties for table use. The sea.
son is too short to depend upon ma
turing field corn. From the stand
point of getting this land ready fol
the pillow, I must say that l never saw
such a vast extent, practically al
ready so all that one has to do is t.
hitch up the pillow and go to work
This is not the case with all tn,
Canadian land, however; some of i
has quite a bit of timber, much OF i
may be called brush land, and some O
it has lovely forest groves, dotted her,

Bronze ~. rrmossr

An effort to determine the relaI.~N
value Of Bronze Grass and Timothy f.,
p~asturage and hay was made last year
by the North Dakota Experiment sta
ton. Though the season was not q
very favorable one, much was learned
regarding the drought-resisting quail
ties of the two grasses. The land Sc
lected was a meadow that has been in
grass, for several years in which the
soil had become very firm and filed
with a mass of roots, penetrating in the
case of the Bronze Grass to a great
depth. After the summer rains the
timothy came forward very rapidly and
for September yielded $50 pounds per
acre more pasture grass han did the
Bronze grass, but the total yield for
the entire season was 856 pounds more
feed per acre from the Bronze grass.
The experiments were under the direc-
ton of Prof. Laid, who has thus sum-
married. the results:
l. Bronze grass produced a fair
amount of pasturage in the dry yea of
1900, while timothy made very little
growth.
2. Animals prefer Bronze pasture to
timothy, as shown in their grazing for
1899, when there was an abundance Of
both grasses, and in 1900 we have like
results.
8. There was but little difference in
chemical composition between pasture
grass from Bronze and from timothy.
The total yield per acre was much in
favor of the Bronze grass.
4, Bronze grass made a fair crop Of
hay in 1900, while timothy failed.
5. Bronze hay contains about twice
as much protein as timothy.
6. Bronze hay does not contain more
fiber than the average for timothy
grown in all parts of the United States.
z. Bronze grass sends it's roots down
deeper into the soil than timothy and
furnishes a great mass of roots in the
be expected to blow less when plowed.
g.. Soils on which Bronze grass has
been grown contain more organic mat
ter and humus than those on which
timothy has been grown.
8. Bronze grass is a better humus
former than timothy and leaves the
soil in better chemical and physical
condition than does the timothy.

A GLOWING REPORT.
AN INDIANA MAN COMPARES WESTERN CANADA
WITH H UNITED STATES.
What MI. Frank Fisher, a Prominent Dunkard, Has to Say After a
Trip Through Canada.

and there, thereby covering a hundred
and sixty acres.
| have no doubt but that this coun-
try excels as a grazing or ranching
country, because they have such rich
grass, having an abundance of rain to
keep it fresh. They also have plenty
of water streams, and as a rule water
may be reached at a depth of from 20
to 40 feet. From this you can see
there can be plenty of hay mown for
winter feeding, and l have had re-
liable farmers to tell me that their
stock will feed on hay alone, and be
ready for market in the spring. Upon
inquiring about the expense of raising
a steer, a farmer replied that he did
not consider it would cost any more
than 81 or Sc to develop a three-year-
old steer.
l truly think Canada offers a fine
opening for a young man or a man
who is renting land in Indiana. One
hundred and sixty acres of good black
land will cost you only $40 at the time
you enter it, and by blowing and cul-
tivating five acres each year for three
years, gives you one hundred and sixty
acres of good land for $40. This land
can be bought from the railroad com
panies, private corporations or the gov
eminent for So to 81 per acre.
From a financial standpoint, / be-
lieve that for a series Of years (five)
a young man can make $40 in Canada,
whereas he would only make 81 here,
and I feel sure that / spent more
money to get my eighty acre farm in
White county, Indiana, cultivated than
it would cost me to cultivate eight
hundred acres in Canada. This may
seem a strong view to take OF the
matter, but when you take into con-
sideration the clearing, ditching, fenc-
ing and the expensive breaking in Of
the stumps, and then compare the ex-
pense to that of land needing only the
breaking, you will conclude that it is
not such a wild or exaggerated state
ment as you might at first think.
1 enjoyed the balmy, breezy atmos-
phere, which was bracing and refresh
ing, and the cool nights which made it
so pleasant for sleep.
On making inquiries regarding the
winters in this country, / learned that
the people never suffer from the cold,
as the weather is dry and %invigorat-
ing, and in a great many places farm
ers and herders allow their stock to
run outside the year round.
One great advantage to the settlers
in Western Canada is the free cream
cries established by the government
and run exclusively in the interest
of the farmer.
I visited Thomas Daley, a farmer
near Edmonton, Alberta, who showed
re oats he had raised, some of which
took the first prize at the Paris Ex-
position last year. The same yielded
ITO bushels to the acre in 1899.

Chicago's August top On hogs for
1901 to date is 95c above the August
average for the last eleven years, there
being only one August higher since
1888. The top in August, 1896, was
only $3.50, while the same month Of
1882 they reached $3.50. In Septem-
Der, 1882, 1875 was paid, being the
highest for any month in over thirty
five years.
Eleven markets received 430, 900 hogs
