A Good Location Necessary.

The first thing required in starting in
the poultry business is a location This
ought to be near a good market, but
cannot always be-that is, without pay
ing too high for it. All extra expense
should be curtailed in this business,
as the income comes in small amounts.
After location is settled upon a free
cange is a necessity. That gives the
needed exercise, ana prevents an accu-
mutation Of lice The next thing is
an adaptability to the business. If one
cannot be content with small earnings,
and cannot save them as they come in,
he should not undertake the business.
The poultry should be breeds that lay
in winter, when eggs are high, if one
breeds fowls for the eggs. This branch
of the business | like best. | prefer it
to raising poultry for the meat, though
the latter may be more profitable in
some localities.-Mrs. L. w. Osborne,
In Poultry Farmer.

"RED ALBUMEN" FOR HENS.
A Mineral from South America that
Promotes Egg-Laying.

A Mineral from South America that
Promotes Egg-Layins.
For some time the press of the coun-
try has been busily engaged in discuss
ing something referred to as red al
bumen." Wholesale druggists have
been interviewed, and they have de-
clared that there is no such thing.
Technically, they were right, though
really they were wrong. Albumen is
an animal product, ordinarily made
from blood or eggs. The so-called red
albumen" comes from little hamlet
in the Argentine Republic, about 500
miles back of Buenos Ayres. There it
is known as "Beckoe albumen,"
though, because of its colo, it is fire.
quently referred to as red albumen."
While the wholesale druggists declare
that they have never heard of red al
bumen, if some of your readers will
ask any drug house which has close
connections with the South American
countries for Reckoe red albumen,
they will be apt to get some of it, al
though it is quite expensive, even in
Beckoe, where, by the way, it is
mined in a small way. The little ham,
let lives almost wholly upon the pro-
ceeds of this Beckoe albumen mine, the
output of which is said to contain
about 90 per cent of the purest albu-
men, thus contradicting the general
impression that albumen is a purely
animal product.
This whole discussion was precip1~
tated by the statement of a gentleman
in a newspaper. He declared that his
hundred hens, which had not been lay
ing for some time, began to lay as
soon as they were fed equal parts of
red albumen Given him by his broth
er, who had spent several years in the
Argentine Republic, and cayenne pep
per- The hens. according to this gen
tleman, were soon laying seven dozen
eggs a day, and kept that up for
months without becoming broOdy Here
in the United States persons interested
in poultry are continually discoursing
about the 20O-egg- day hen, but in
Beckoe and the immediate vicinity the
hen which does not lay more than 200
eggs in $50 days is not considered
worthy to be kept. The people Of
Beckoe attribute this marvellous pro-
Efficacy to the mineral albumen which
they get regularly; but, after all, it is
possible that the good people of the
little Argentine hamlet are miStaken.-

The upper ends are rounded, and insert
ed in holes bored in the lower side OF
(but not entirely through the cap piece.
The pins of the lower ends should be of
metal. Pieces of sawmill plate, in which
holes have been punched, should be
fastened to the sill for these pins to
play in. Thus the pins will be kept
from wearing the wood. A similar plate
should be placed where the gates meet,
to accommodate the vertical bolt on one
Of them. The other gate should have Il
latch.
The Stats and braces may be made
from stuff IA inches thick and four
inches wide. They are attached to each
other and to the uprights with bolts
The short braces are on the opposite
side of the Stats from the long ones, so
that the same bolt may go through both
where they overlap. When finished, the
frame and gates should be well painted
1t will be seen that these gates can
be used singly or together, and that
they swing in either direction. 1t is al
ways q convenience to have gate
swing away from you, no matter from
which side you approach.

Many times pigs die from overlooking
the SOW the first week after narrowing.
Start business with good boar.
Good blood is requisite, and so is good
care.
Sometimes when two sows farrow at
the same time. one with a large litter
and the other with a small one, the
pigs can be devided equally between
the mothers, though this should not be
attempted after the pigs are three days
old
The first thing in profitable pig rails
ing is to grow the frame, then put flesh
on it. You cannot successfully do both
at the same time.
Pure bred swine are all right, but
don't treat them as you would scrub
stock. High bred animals are very
susceptible to surroundings and care.
The farmer who is not willing to
give time and attention to valuable
stock would better stick to the scrubs
But any animal requires rational treat
ment for profitable results.
A writer has well said that it is sim
ply impossible to put feed enough into
a pig in cold weather to make him
comfortable without keeping him in a
warm pen with plenty Of bedding

Alum (used in laundry work. is prin-
cipally valuable for cleansing water
which it is necessary to use a second
time, either where the supply is very
limited or for other good reasons;
though it goes without saying that,
where there is plenty of soft water to
be had, there should be no such thing
as Il second use of the same water.
Given a tubful of suds which must be
used again, a tablespoonful of alum
should be dissolved in a small quantity
of warer-the exact amount not being
material-and poured into the suds, the
whole being quickly stirred and then
allowed to clear. In a very short time
the clear water can be poured off, leav-
ing the sediment in the bottom Of the
tub.

Darr,np ON Sewing Machines.

Tears and worn places in cloth fab
RIGS can be darned most satisfactorily

Parloa, in the Ladies' Home Journal.
Thread the machine with silk or cot

not loosen the presser foot; have the
stitch of moderate length; begin the
stitching little beyond the damaged
place. For places that are worn thin
or frayed put in rows of stitching, close
together Cross these with other rows
Of stitching; this will give smooth,
fine texture. Where the fabric is worn
thin haste a piece Of the same kind Of
goods on the wrong side, and darn over
it. If there is none of the same ma

mixed, have the upper thread of the

Gate that Cannot Sag.

A subscriber sends to the Tribune
Farmer a description of a gate which
he constructed several years ago on Il
farm where he then lived. Its great
merit is that it never says. For gate
posts he used SxS timber, set fully
twelve feet apart. With the idea of
letting load of hay through, the cap
piece ought to be fully twelve feet
above the ground, and may be advan-
tageously cut out by 6XS stuff. The
posts should be set in stone or cement,
so as to be proof against the action Of
the frost. A sill or threshold is also
provided. This should measure 6xS or
8xS, and consist of oak or chestnut. The
better the timber for the rest Of this
frame the longer it will last.

Reaching into an oven after Il pie or

Winter Orchard Work,

In nearly all fruit sections hundreds
of trees are destroyed each year by
bOrers, and while the work of destroy
ing them can best be done in the fall,
it will pay to use all diligence during
the winter to trap those that were
missed in the fall hunt Take a pail
OF soft tar, a Scraper-an old caSeknife,
fairly sharp, will answer-and a few
wires of different lengths and sizes.
Get down to the surface of the ground
and examine the trunk Of the tree,
carefully scraping away loose bark and
prOdding suspicious spots With the
wire. If holes are found, run the wire
in as far as possible, then swab the
place with the tar In going over the
orchard in this manner one will often
find ravages of field vermin, especially
among the young trees, and when such
is the case the tree can be protected
and saved. One of the most success
full fruit growers in the country con-
siders it necessary that his men make
weekly trips through the orchards to
ascertain, as he puts it, ''if the trees

Egg Sandwiches,

These are not to be made by a recipe
which once appeared for them: Boil
fresh eggs five minutes: peel; take a lit
tie white off from each end; cut the
rest in four slices, and put betwe en-
bread and butter" That compound
would be but little better than the egg
in its natural state. Hard boiled eggs,
for any purpose, should be cooked i'll
water just below the boiling point not
less than twenty minutes; then the
yoll, instead Of being tough will be soft
and mealy. TO make sandwiches, use
eggs thus boiled; chop fine; add a tea
spoonful of butter for each egg, and salt
and pepper to season; mix we'll to-
gether. The butter in the mixture holds
it together when cold. Spread on slices
of butetred bread. and put them to-
gether. A little chopped ham may be
mixed with the egg for a variety.

Curing Cheese,

Curing is one of the important proc
esses of cheese manufacture. The
cheeses should be placed in a room
which can be kept at uniform tenn
perature TO 90 to 20 degrees. They
should be turned at least once a day
and thoroughly rubbed with the hand.
Some advise removing the cloth as soon
as the cheeses are put on the shelves,
while others suggest leaving it on until
ready for shipment. While new it is a
good practice to turn the cheeses twice

Seeding with Glover.

When clover is soWn early in the
spring on the crop of wheat or other
winter grain it may cost nothing but
the price of the seed, which is not
much, whether ten or fifteen pounds is
used to the acre, and the labor of SOW
ing. Yet we would prefer to increase
its cost by going over the wheat with
light or smoothing harrow before
sowing the clover seed. This will bene-
fit wheat or rye if done at the right
time, when the ground is not wet
enough to cause the harrow to sink too
deep and uprOot the plants. This
makes good seed bed for the clover.
and in a day or two after the first rain
the little plants will be sending their
roots down into the soil. Yet they
will not make growth enough to injure
the grain before it ripens, and when
that is taken off the clover will be bet
ter looking and more valuable than
the weeds that would be likely to take
possession if the clover was not there.
It will grow then through the fall and
into winter, and in the spring it may
be ploWed under to enrich the soil, or
if the catch is a good one, and it makes
a good crop, it may be cut twice for
hay and then add more fertility to the
soil if plowed under in the fall or next
spring than If the first growth was
plowed under Clover likes mineral
fertilizer, even if it is as cheap one
as sulphate of lime or land plaster, and
also likes the phosphates and potash,
but many supply these sufficiently IN
