Some Reasons Why None But n Many

cess of IL.

The successful poultryman must be
many-sided. Poultry raising is COM
plicated business and requires good
deal of knowledge of a good many
things. This knowledge is not ac-
quired in day. Poultry diseases must
be known to a very considerable ex-
tent. and this requires thought and
study. The knowledge of the diseases
must be supplemented by the knowl-
edge of the best conditions to prevent
them. The poultryman must be ia
miliar with the chemical constituents
OF feeds and understand the balancing
OF rations. He must be able to dis
tinguish the different breeds and
should know something of the stand
ards of perfection. His knowledge of
all the experiments with poultry
should be complete. No poultry book
OF value should be outside of his
library. To possess himself of tie
knowledge obtainable by reading he
must devote a good deal Of time to
this branch of his activity. Then he
must be familiar with the markets
end with the methods of men that buy
fowls and eggs. Moreover he must
have large stock of information as
to how to run an incubator. This is
hard thing to procure, as IL requires
much loss of time and aterial finding
out what things are necessary to be
done to insure success. To these
things must be added attention to in
Vulnerable details. Because. the poul-
tryman must he many-sided, many
that attempt to be poultrymen fail.
The man that goes into the poultry
business should do so with his eyes
open. He must expect to have to
learn, and to learn one thing at a time.

able winter shed for sheep, the win.

When such building Is located in
the pasture, the cattle can be taught
to come to it at night by giving an
occasional feed of grain there. In
this way they will have immediate
shelter IL a sudden shower occurs in
the night. Moreover, much manure
will thus be saved, which can be
drawn away to the fields or piled up,

RAISING BEEF CALVES.

"In successfully growing calves
prefer an April calf of good beef
stock" says correspondent of the
Indiana Farmer. "The mother should
be well taken care of, fed on plenty
Of clover hay, ground corn and oats,
mixed half and half. Let the calf
have all the finest milk that il
wants; then take it away from the
COW and put 1t in stable handy and
where the cow can see it, If it is bad
weather. II the weather is nice put
the COW on a good pasture of rye,
with the calf just over the fence at
straw shed or stack, where 1t can
get the benefit of the sun. The calf
should be turned to the cow morn
ing, noon and night for the first two
weeks; then the calf will eat II it Is
where 1t can get something green.
There should be q small lot of rye
fenced off for the calf, and that,
with plenty of milk morning and
night, will be all that Is required for
the next two weeks. Then the calf
will be one month old. On May 1
there should be patch of oats
ready for the calf, with a box nailed
up under shed where the calf can
go out of bad weather and eat
quart of ground oats and corn, equal
parts, morning and night for the
next month. Feed just after turning
the cow out. During the third
month, June, the calf should be
treated the same as the second, ex-
cept little more ground feed, say
one-half pint more. The fourth
month it should have patch of peas
to run in, and the feed should be cut
down to one quart morning and
night. The fifth month the calf
should have three pints OF ground
oats and corn and one of oil cake or
flax-seed meal given just after being
turned to the COW, with the pasture
increased by letting run on a fresh
rye patch. At the end of August it
will be six months old, and should be
ready for market at the top price for
calves. I should have said at the
end of two weeks the calf should be
trimmed and dehorned il a horned
calf, and during all this time the calf
should have fresh, clean water where
it can go and drink at will"

A MAN STILL LACKING.
The Democrats Are Yet Beating Up

tial Candidate

intellectually" Hon. william c..
Whitney remarked the other day,
"politics is less interesting just now
than usually. The trouble is that the
democrats have no issue and no man."
The democratic New York World
thinks Mr.. Whitney's generalization
as to issues is too sweeping. IL con-
fesses, however, that neither justice
to Cuba, nor the Philippines, nor the
trusts can be made winning issue for
the democracy, for the simple reason
that Theodore Roosevelt stands for
definite policies, which the people APP
prove, on all these questions. 1t
would have hopes of making an issue
Of the alleged extravaganza of con-
gress had not democratic congressman
voted for what it terms Jobs" quite
as freely as did republicans. So it falls
back upon the "trust-fostering and
consumer-robbing tariff" as democ-
racy's only issue.
"Here is an ISSUE" the World hope
fully declares, "if the democrats can
force it to the front and keep it there"
While the questions Of taxation are
always with us, it is evident that the
democracy can hardly make the tar
III winning issue at present. The
memory of the sufferings Of 1s93-97
Is still too acute to induce the people
to confide such task to the demo-
cratic party, says the Inter Ocean.
And, even II there were belief that
the democratic party could be trusted
with the delicate task of adjusting our
tariff to new. conditions, where is the
democratic leader to undertake the
work?
"The man." the democratic New
York World admits, sis not yet in
sight" 1t thinks he might be devel-
oped by 1904 il number Of the strong
est democrats were elected to the next
congress, but at present IL searches
the country for him in vain.
without vital issue and without
q leader, the destitute condition of the
democracy Is indeed pitiful. 1t IL made
NO less pitiful by its principal New
York organs groupings for an issue.
For the World confesses that even II
an issue should be found the demo-
Gratis would still lack q man.

nry.n,. Explsded Prophecies.

William J. Bryan during his presi-
Dental campaigns predicted with the
greatest possible reiteration that N
the event of Bryan's defeat the farmir
would enter upon unprecedented al
versity. He is compelled to admit that
the farmer is now prosperous beyond
what has ever been attained in agsi-
cultural pursuits. So he has changed
his tune and says: "Insofar as the
farmers have prospered It is due TO
natural conditions and not to the gov
ernmental policies Of the republican,
party" In this statement he distinct
ly attacks the proposition which he
presented in previous years to the
farmers, when he told them that
change In governmental, policies was
the thing that was necessary to save
them from bankruptcy.-Troy Times.

less than 23,74s,OO0 foot pounds, or a

pestible matter, including the food of
support. The horses are fed on an
average a ration consisting OF only SIS
pounds of hay, II pounds Of oats and
some cut straw. This ration contains
only about So pounds of digestible
components, and "it is therefore not
hard to understand why the horses

MODERN PIGEON LOFT.
Description of an Interior Arrange

Birds Very Easy.

When pigeons are to be kept in large
numbers, it is quite important that
the loftsbe arranged conveniently in
order that the work of caring for the
birds may be done quickly yet with the
least disturbance to the pigeons.
Whenit becomes necessary to have
several pens, the best way is to
arrange them in line, with athree-foot
aisle or walk at the back.
The arrangement of the rooms in
which from rs to IS pairs Of pigeons
may be kept, is set forth in the accom-
paDying drawing, and is so simple to
understand that little need be added
by way Of explanation.
The rooms of the pigeon house are
partitioned off with single boards, be-
