Does Poultry Pay?

The above is very common O. es.
ton. We answer by saying it d 'es
pay and it can pay, but it does sos
always pay. On the farm it gerer.
ally does pay, though the farmer e ii
not keep account of what his fo, II
are bringing in. There are two ra.
sons why poultry on farms generally
pay. One of them is that the fo'ls
are kept in relatively small numbers,
from SO to 200 in a flock. Another
reason is that the food given the fowls
represents very largely gleanings from
the fields, orchards and barns. MAJ
rial that would most certainly go to
waste. goes to make up the bulk OF ne
feed the fowls receive. The question
becomes one of Importance when rp-
piled to large operations Independent
of the farm. Then the answer must
depend on a good many things. The
first of these is the experience of the
poultryman When novices with men
ey so into poultry raising they do Lot
generally make it pay. 1t is not q
dead sure thing, and novices with
money can succeed only with dead
sure things. The novice with money
and no experience, If he goes into the
poultry business, generally comes out
OF it with good lot of experience and
no money.-Farmers' Review.

Eao-Worms.

Frequent enquiries are received re-
garGing the "bag-worn" whose pecu.
liar sacs or bags are frequently seen
during The winter attached to various
trees and other objects. If these sacs
are examined, some will be found to
contain large number OF eggs within
a mass of yellow fluffy material. The
empty cases are the ones that were
occupied by the male during the past
growing season while the larger ones,
containing the mass OF eggs, were
the abode of the females. The females
in fact never leave the cases and after
fertilization by the small male moths,
the eggs are formed as already de-
scribed. From these eggs are hatched.
in the spring, the larvae that begin
feeding on the leaves of trees at once
and soon form about themselves the
bag that is enlarged as the larvae
mature until it becomes too large for
them to carry. Then it is attached to
the limb while the larvae is eating
and is moved to another place when
the food supply is there exhausted.
Every one Of these cases should be
removed from the trees during the
winter and burned as otherwise the
larvae are certain to destroy good
number of shade trees in the spring

Selecting Judges Of Swine.

w. G. Huey says: In the selection
of the judge, the exhibitors Of each
breed of swine should have q voice
in selecting the judge or judges Of
their respective breeds. No one man
should push himself like an autocrat
and dictate who should be Judge OF
the various breeds, and do so over the
protest of the exhibitors. The ex.
hibitors or breeders Of each breed Of
swine should be consulted in the Sc.
lection or their judge. And after q
fair expression Of opinion OF the
breeders Of the various breeds has
been secured as to their choice for
judge, the Judges for the various
breeds should be selected and their
names published 60 days previous to
the opening of the fair. The swine
show at the Illinois State Fair is the
royal of America, and the State Board
of Agriculture should make ample
provision for the comforts and con-
venience of the exhibitor and the ex-
hibit, and to see to 1t that judges
are selected that are competent to
rightfully place the awards. and will
do SO with clean hands.

Fruit Storage.

Some sort of storage facilities are
almost Indispensable in the manage
ment of the fruit business for profit.
They allow fruit to be carried over a
season OF glut, and so help the grow
er, even though the storage be owned
by the speculator and be operated in
his interest. Fruit storage is most
useful to the fruit grower, however.
when it is kept in his own possession.
or at least within his own manage,
ment, for it makes him in a greater
or less degree independent OF the
buyer and speculator-often remark
ably so. 1t may be safely said that
tho fruit business cannot be conducted
on q large scale except with few OF
tho more perishable fruits. without
adequate provision for storage, either
on the growers own premises or In
rented storage rooms.-Prof. +. A.
Waugh.

The Grape Plantation.

S. G. Soverhill, at meeting OF Illi-
nois fruit growers, said: Grapes
should be planted about twelve feet
aIart each way, and between the rows.
one way, plant a row OF raspberries.
l have practiced this for the last ten
years and grapes and berries have
Goth done we'll, shading the ground
the latter part of the season, so that
very few weeds grew. l commence
cultivating in the spring as soon as
the ground is in condition to work
and cultivate about once a week, so as
to keep the ground mellow and free
from weeds l never allow weeds or
grass to grow among my grapes and
berries. A horse and finetooth culti-
vator do the most or the work, and
very little hCeing or wedding is neces-
sary; just little close around the
or narrow. so as to run close to the
rows.
I have my berries etaked and one
wire two and one-half feet high on
each side Of the row, so that they
do not hinder the cultivation Of the
grapes at any season Of the year that
it is necessary to cultivate. For my
grapes l set posts twelve feet apart.
in the center between the vines The
posts are eight and one-half feet long,
set two feet in the ground and six and
one-half feet auove. Be sure and get
good posts at each end of the row. Cut
a notch in the top OF the first post and
one near the ground in the second
one, and put in q good brace. The
center posts need not be so good, as
it is very little work to replace one.

Seeds of Canada Thistles.

A bulletin of the Department Of
Agriculture says: Tho Canada this
tie spreads over large areas or trav-
els long distances by means of its
seeds. 1t spreads into patches by
means Of its perennial running roots.
Both of these means are effective in
their way. Perfect seeds are not
often produced till after the plants
have become well-establisheG and
have spread to some extent by the
running roots. In some localities in
Wisconsin and Iowa close observa-
ton of the plants for several years
has failed to discover perfect seeds.
The plants appear to be somewhat er-
ratio in this respect. In 1894 very
few perfect seeds were found at
Washington, while in 1895. nearly
all of the plants bore perfect seeds.
though such were produced by less
than half of the flowers in each head
In 1896 the plants were again seed
less. All three seasons were exceed.
ingly dry for this region. In 1899, an
abnormally wet season in Washing
ton, they were seedless, and no seed
lings were found in the spring Of 1900
There were no apparent fungous or in
sect enemies to account for failure
to produce seeus.

Keeping Up MARKINGS.

From the Farmers Review: 1 keep
up the markings Of my Silver Wyan-
dottes, or. rather, try to do SO, by care
ful selection and mating. When pur-
chasing any new stock Of either sex
ascertain If possible, even If it re-
quires a personal visit, if the yard
from which l contemplate making a
purchase is of birds of uniformly good
markings, shape, size. and free from
lisqualifying defects. AS to culling, l
aise as many as can give suitable at
tention to. and have room for, and
select the very best Of them to the ex-
cent OF the number wish to keep for
my breeding stock.-W. L. Mills, Put

What Kind Of a Horse to Raise.

"Hdt Ntffu OF q morse 10 haISS.
We see the advice is given to the
farmers to raise only draft horses.
That advice is very good to the farm
er that has mare suitable to breed
to heavy draft horse, but there are
multitudes of farmers that cannot af-
ford to purchase suitable mares on
which to raise draft horses. The ad-
vice is also given to rai.e coach horses,
but even $5o0-coach horses cannot be
raised on the kind of foundation stock
available. A farmer must consider
what he has. If his mare is heavy
enough to become the mother OF a
heavy draft horse. she should be bred
to the best draft stallion in reach. ir
respective of what the service fee may
be. If he has a mare that will only
produce horse heavy enough for g.
roadster, then breed to the best blood
in that line that can be reached. Above
all, the man that wants to take advan.
tage of the improving horse market
should not breed his mare to the cheap
nondescript stallion whose fee is so
low that it is positive proof that he is
not worth buying up. The really valu
able stallion has high market price
to-day and such horses do not have to
stand at an Insignificant fee.

Cattle Raising in MADAGASCAR.

Phenomenal opportunities in live
stock raising in Madagascar are pre-
scented. according to Consul Covert at
Lyons, who in report to the depart
ment of state says: Business men
interested in Madagascar state that q
profitable cattle trade may soon be op-
ened between that colony and the
Transvaal. The southern part of the
island is rich field for raising cat
tie and is good for little else. The
cattle low there, owned by the natives,
number from 100000 to 100000. In
Madagascar cattle can be bought for
1890 per head or less. and they will
sell in the Transvaal for $67.5O. 1t is
announced in one of the Paris rapers
that 5000 head of cattle were srans.

eeours Destructive OF Swine Life.
That more hogs die every year OF
scours than from any other ailment to
which swine are subject. Is well es-
tablished fact. says Texas Stock Jour-
nal. How best to curtail the ravages
OF this disease has always been q
problem. but Meissner Brothers. sue
cessful feeders near Reinbeck, Ia,
believe they have solved it. They
maintain that eternal vigilance from
the time piggy is farrowed till he S
six months old is the only safeguard.
Don't overfeed the sow. Don't feed
sour swill or sour food. Make no
sudden changes of feed. Feed the SOW
nothing for the first day after far
rowing. but a thin slop and, on the
second day half ear of corn in the
morning and an ear in the evening
with swill a little thicl1ened. Increase
1t gradually SO that on the sixth day
you will give four Or five ears. Also
give the same kind of swill she has
had before the farrowing. With gcod
swill and good pasture you may safely
dispense with oats. In the absence OF
grass, oats may be fed with good re-
suits. The above are not iron-clad
rules but each SOW must be fed by
taken into account. If she is feverish
and has small litter, she will have
to be fed lighter than a SOW show

Packages for Fruit.


The question OF fruit packages Is
one that has received great deal OF
attention from our fruit raisers. It
1s very important one, as in its
solution lies large part Of the ques.
tion OF profit and loss. A package for
lruit must be as cheap as possible. rs
II IS to be given away with the fruit
On the other hand. it must not be so
cneap that it will permit the contents
10 be injured in transit or in subse-
quent handling. Professor Waugh
says that the gift package is peculiar
10 the American trade. by which we
may infer that in other countries the
fruit IS changed into the package
brought by the purchaser of the fruit,
OF that the purchaser Of the fruit
purchases the package In addition to
MS fruit and at regular figure. 1t
IS certainly desirable to have uniform
packages and ones that shall not be
under suspicion OF the purchaser. Re-
Gently the bushel box for apples has
come into quite wide use. These
boxes are very serviceable in certain
Kinds OF trade. Where the grocer can
ouy them In large quantities and have
them delivered to his customers by
his own wagon, they are a great help
to the trade, as the consumers can
purchase the apples in bushel lots.
but where q purchaser in the city
wants to buy apples from a producer
al distance. the bushel box is hardly
as good as the barrel, for the reason
that the cost of handling the cne
smaller package is as great as thst
tor handling the larger package. Thus
1t costs 25 cents to haul box from
the railroad station to a residence.
and 1t would cost no more for q bar
rel. On the other hand, the box should
cost less than the barrel, as it can
be made out Of almost any kind :af
wood, while barrel stavcs and hoops
have to be made out Of certain mate.

Artificial Cream.

terations: Some of them are trying

them all. 1t comes from Chicago, so
you know it's pretty fierce. Some OF
the cairymen buy q cream preserver
that'e made in the windy city. The.
directions are printed on the box.
All you have to do Is to take ordinary
milk. mix with water and add the pre.
server. The result is good imita.
ton Of pure cream. We've tried #
here in the Office and it SO CLOSELY
resembles the genuine article that a
test is necessary to show that It is a

nourishment in it. but the label saws

Spreading Manure in the Fall.

Spreading Manure IN the ran.
The hauling out and spreading OF
manure in the fall has distinct ad-
vantage over spreading Of manure In
the winter or in the spring-the
manure will be enabled to get into
the ground before it freezes up. This
process will be assisted by the fall
rains. Then when the ground freezes
the manure is locked up and will re-
main in the ground till spring, but
will be worked on by the frosts. The
hauling out and spreading may con-
tinue through the fall and till the
ground freezes up. There Is fur
ther advantage of doing the work at
this time, and that is that a consider
able part of the manure will be got
ou. of the way while the weather is
yet mild, and will save Just so much
labor when the weather is cold in the
winter or when the ground is wet In
the spring. The one objection that
may he urged against doing the work
at this time is that sometimes the
fall rains make the ground soft and
the wagon wheels cut IN both sod
and plowed land. The natural and
only way to get around this is to do
the work at time when the ground
is sufficiently dry to prevent rutting.
Manure hauled on now will by
spring be leached into the ground
to the depth of the plowing, and
when the ground is plowed or re.
plowed in the spring this enriched soil
is turn>d up to become part Of the
Seed-bed.
