From my experience in providing
winter quarters for laying hers
would build a poultry house as fol-
'Cws: Lay a morlGred wall high
enough to be above all surface water,
and upon this in fresh mortar lay the
ills. Heavy plank will answer. Upor
.hese stills build a gambrel raof 1t is
mistake 10 put the roof upon posts,
as II makes the room too high TO econ
omize heat. Placed upon the siils. the
ridge need not be over or 10 feet
above the floor, ana this is none too
high.
Instead of long and narrow house
I would build square: cCx20 feet is a
good size, and it gives nearly as much
acor space as 12xS6 feet Place two
windows and door in the south end,
and small window IT. the north end,
manly for ventilation in summer.
Make 4 scratch Per of the whole
qoor space by placing Z dropping board
Inder the perches. Here is room for
30 to 60 hens in winter. or even 70 if
me care is sufficient. Floor SPACE may
Re economical by careful attention in
winter.
If one has timber FOR shingles, the
:awing will cost only 81 a thousand.
and the roof boarding may he of lum-
Der suitable FOR nothing else. The
.uiiding paper placed under the shin
giles is Il small item. and the windows
may be these that have served another
purpose. The whole cash outlay to a
| farmer for such a house need not b"
over $40 or SIS. The buileing is sub
stantial, and is adapted to the needs Of
he one who keeps a nice larg: flock

Test. Of y.r.,.b,. Seeds.

A bulletin from the Minnesota exper-
:ment station reports interesting re-
suits from tests Of large and small
seeds OF various varieties OF vegeta-
bles. which in every case show best
results from the larger seeds. In the
case of raGish seeds the plants from
large seed were ready for marketing
four days earlier thar those from the
small seeds. which produced but "a per-
cent marketable radishes, and those
from large seeds 81 percent. While
this was the most marked instance,
there was enough difference in many
others to make the plump and larger
seed worth at least so percent more
than the small seed.

Washinr and Shearing.

The man who washes his sheep we'll
before shearing will reap his reward.
and make an additional profit that will
pay for the trouble. Good, clean wool
always commands more per pound than
dirty, and it makes such better ap-
pearance in the market that buyers
are sometimes inclined to take IL IN
preference to dirty but otherwise high
er grade wool. The washing, how
ever, must depend somewhat upon cir
cumstances, for it may not always be
advisable to do it. Generally it pro-
longs the shearing process until late
II the season, and i, always has an
effect in delaying the production of
mutton. When the murton IS con-
sideration it is not advisable to wash,
but where fleece is the sole object the
washing j to be recommended.

week OF ": days after washing, and

Demand for the Mule.

The last year has brought The mule
into greater prominence than it has
ever before occupi.i in this country.
1t is true that in some sections. nota-
bly, the cotton states, the mule has
Leen the great reliance for all kinds
of farm work. and he and the negro
were responsible for about all the WORK
dnne on southern farms and ?lanta-
tiCns.
But the great impetus giver to mule
breeding was the war in South Afr
ca. 1t is rugged country, very dry,
and horses could rot withstand its
peculiar climate. Here TIE mule
proved its great value, and soon the
horse was discarded from the ambu-
lance. conlmissary and ammunition
trains, and the mule took its place.
They were found to be much superior
to the horse in the peculiar conditions
eatailed by active campaigning in a
dry. mountainous country, where for
age is very scarce. and highways are
unknown. Here the peculiar capabili-
ties of The mule had ample room to
sliow themselves, and the result was so
greatly in his favor, as compared with
the horse, that it may be regarded
practically settled. tkat he will be-
come fixture in modern armies. and
rs essential as arms or amnln, ition.
The result has been wonder FIJI in
crease in the demand Tor mules, and a
corresponding expansion in breeding
and raising them. The general farm
e:s. who stopped breeding horses some
years ago. as they could buy horses
cheaper than they could raise them,
are beginning to use mules on the
farm, and find they are great workers.
much freer from disease.
Tire sales of mules at the Chicago
stock yards the lass year Rave been
surprisingly large. Only few years
ego n mule sent there for sale was a
rarity. Now there are consignments
offered every week. and from 200 TO
500 are frequently on sale at once. They
range in size from SOC to 1900 pounds.
The former are denominatel cotton
mules, as they are largely taken by
southern farmers &c: plantation work,
and the heavy ones for truck purposes.
In the latter line of work they are
displacing ordinary tuck horses. and
are being used more largely from year
to year. This may b. regarded as the
mule age.-Michigan Farmer.

THE MAN WHO FIGHTS ALONE.

The fellow who fights the fight alone,
With never a word of cheer,
With never a friend his help to lend,
With never a comrade near
'Tis he has need of a stalwart hand
And a heart not given to moan
He struggles for life and more han life,
The fellow who fights alonei
The fellow who fights the world alQne
with never a fathers smile.
With never a mothers kindly tone
His sorrowful hours to guile,
who joins the fray at the dawn of day
And battles till light is flown,
Must needs be strong for the fight is long,
n fellow who fights alone!
All. bitter enough the combat is
with every help at hand,
With friends at need to bid g%odspeed,
With spirits that understand;
But fiercer fight is the fight to one
Who struggles along unknown
Oh. brave and grim is the heart Of him,
The fellow who fights alone!
God bless the fellow who fights alone,
And arm his soul with strength!
Till safety out of the battle rout
He ~conquering comes at length;
Till far and near into every ear
The fame of his light is blown.
Till friend and foe in the victor know
The fellow who fights alone!
