The Cost of Exhibiting.

Very likely so..e readers of the poul-
try journals may wonder why adver-
tisers do not exhibit at the shows
more frequently, says new exhibitor
in Commercial Poultry. Some readers
may not know that, besides the trou-
BILE in preparing the birds. it is also
quite expensive to show. | submit the
following figures to show the cost:
Show No. 1-Expense, $500; cash
prize, so cents; birds away from home
nine days; one bird died from the long
confinement value So; total expense,
$11.20; credit. 80 cents. Show No. 2
Expense. 81; cash prizes. SLIGO. Show
No. 3-Expense, $3.50; cash prizes, So.
Expenses of three shows, $15.10, be-
sides the trouble, which is no small
item, as each bird must be carefully
examined, legs and face washed, leg
banded and placed in an exhibition
coop two or three times to get them
used to confinement and being han
died.
At some exhibitions held early in the
season old fowls are not done moltfng,
young birds are not up in weight, and
fowls molting are not at their best
either in plumage or weight. Young
birds lack weight, and so many good
birds score low that the score does not
indicate their actual merit. A would
be buyer looks at the low score pub
lished in the journals and thinks such
stock isn't worth much.

Blackeye and Whippoorwill cowpeas
were tested at the Cornell station.
There seems little to choose between
them. Blackeye appears not quite as
vigorous a grower as Whippoorwill.
Rolling clover seeded ground may
prove an excellent aid to prompt ger
nination.
Persian officials say they need agri-
cultural implements of the American

Exports of apples from the United
States during 1901 amounted to 599,00e
barrels, valued at $1.761,394, against
T40,575 barrels in the preceding year,
valued at 81. .S21, 1,562.

An old hen belonging to Mrs. NJ. A.
Stormont began laying late in the fall
and was so persistent that she laid
twenty-six eggs before she concluded
to stop. During all this time she had
neglected her molting. and when she
finally got ready to shed her feathers
it was in the middle of winter. but the
old ones had lost their life and were
dry and harsh. consequently there was
no other way but to make the change.
In a short time she was almost bare
and suffering from the cold. The Miss
es StOrmont seeing her predicament
and appreciating the value of her sery-
ice rendered. determined to come to her
rescue. They accordingly took the old
hen into the house, took her measure

RAISING TURKEYS.
There Is Money In 1t if One Hs

There Is Money In 1t If One Hes
Room and Goes About 1t Right.
No branch of the poultry business
pays better than the raising of tur-
keys. This is true whether they are
raised for market purposes or for the
fancy. AS fowls for the farm they
are benefit as well as profit. Tur-
keys must and will forage, and they
cannot be raised proftably without
good range. The turkey is undoubted-
ly the farmers best friend.
They have been created with a row.
ing instinct. which causes them to con-
stantly travel from one field to an
other In doing this they rid the place
of worms, grasshoppers and other in
Bects that are detrimental to crops and
a nuisance to the farmer. They also
consume many weed seeds. A field of
clover is their special delight, as it is
always the home of grasshoppers and
other insect life. Why the Creator
caused clover to grow and then created
grasshoppers to eat it up is beyond my
ken unless he created the turkey to eat
the grasshopper Be that as it may,
we have the latter, and it has come to
stay, and the only way see out OF the
difficulty is to raise the turkey and de-
rive the double profit which we get
from saving the clover and filling our
purse from the sale of stock.
Without a good range | do not be-
lieve that the turkeys can be made as
profitable as they can with it. They
are very heavy eaters and one is al
most sure to oyerfeed them. This
makes them sickly and often results in
the loss of many birds, but if given
good range on the farm they will raise
themselves after they are six or eight
weeks old. In order to prevent them
from annoying the neighbors l bring
them home each night until the habit
becomes fixed. They then come home
of their own accord.
am glad to know that great many
breeders of thoroughbred stock are be-
ginning to appreciate the value and i'm
portance of the turkey. Many iocks
are raised practically without cost. In
cases where cattle and hogs are fed
after the first hard freeze the turkeys
will stay around the building and pick
up the corn which the cattle and hogs
shell off. which would otherwise go to
waste This waste product is there
fore turned into money.
There is no kind of meat that can be
so easily and cheaply raised on the
farm as the turkey. Let the farmers
commence with good thoroughbred
birds bred in line, the same as they do
with thoroughbred stock. and they
will reap double profit each year.

try Journal.

Cherry Culture.

The cherry and plum can stand and
indeed need strong soil. Heavy manur-
ing with fresh stable manure, however,
is not advisable. says Iowa Home
stead Use rather old. well rotted ma
nure and the soil from around manure
piles that is filled with teachings. The
clearing up of old barnyards after
most of the manure is hauled off and
the teachings of hogyards and the
clearings of poultry yards and houses
are all good fertilizers for both the
cherry and the plum. Results can be
secured from our commoner varieties
that will surprise the cultivator and
sell for long price by employing this
means. while common fruit grown in a
common way may not be salable at all.
The cherry can be made three-fourths
of an inch in diameter and its color
very materially heightened. The trees,
too, are healthier, live longer and have
greater thrift

Money In Scrub Cattle.

A herd of scrub COWS were bought by
the Kansas college without regard to
their value for the dairy and produced
in year, at creamery prices, milk
worth S37.75 per COW. The skimmilk
calves which were fattened brought
an average of $40 each when marketed
at about year old, says Professor II.
NJ. Cottrell. This shows a gross in
come in year from a scrub COW and a
scrub calf of $77.75, when both COW
and calf are pushed, the cows milk
sold and the calf raised on skimmilk.
The best COW in the scrub herd pro-
duced milk in year worth, at cream
cry prices, $60.SS. The best calf in the
skimmilk lot brought SAT. This shows
that a good scrub COW with a good
calf could be made to bring over 500
gross income in year. With large
grade Shorthorn or Hereford cows of
the dairy type crossed with a short
legged, thick meated, blocky bull the
returns from both COW and calf would
undoubtedly be much greater, making
the combination of dairying and baby
beef very profitable.

A STRAWBERRY BED.
How to Prepare It-When to Plal
Insects and Cover.

How to Prepare It-When to Plant.
Insects and Cover.
The strawberry requires deep, rich
soil. Prepare the ground thoroughly
before planting, as this is important for
best results, says Orange Judd Farmer.
After planting do not let your cultiyat-
ing be with the object of keeping the
weeds out, but cultivate to keep the
ground loose and mellow, and the
weeds will have no chance to gain a
foothold. In setting the plants do not
spread the roots near the surface nor
twist them into wad, but spread them
out and allow them to reach straight
down into the soil, and press the fresh
earth solid against the roots. 1t is a
good plan to clip the lower ends of the
roots before setting, as they start new
growth more readily. Clipping early
runners is not necessary and should
not be done by inexperienced growers.
In northern ATTITUDES plant early in
May if possible and cultivate well with
a view of getting good growth OF
new plants before the hot, dry weather
of late summer stops growth and pre-
vents late runners from taking root.
Early roofing runners make the best
plants for next years fruiting. If
plants are prevented from roofing in
early summer, they are more liable to
injury from the white grub. insects or
accidents. and each plant destroyed
leaves a skip in the row, while if the
runners are allowed to root early less
harm is done if the original plant is in
jured. Cover the bed in fall when
freezing weather comes, or if that is
delayed any time in November is all
right, and light covering is safest.

Stray Petals.

Make sowings of sweet peas as soon
as frost is out of the ground.
Set out saliva and dwarf nasturtium
plants as soon as the weather is set

Sow Shirley poppies where they are
to grow in early spring. They do not
bear transplanting.
Helen Gould and Miss Alice Roose-
velt were the novelties in roses shown

Coleus seed must be planted very
early to be ready for bedding out in
May. If in the greenhouse. give bot
tom heat occasionally.
Successful paintings of gradiolus
may be made from the time the soil is
dry enough in the spring till the 4th of
July.
Pansies may be sown in the spring
as soon as the ground can be worked,
though fall sowing is generally pre-
ferred.
