seed potatoes, but before doing so there
are precautions 10 be taken. The
slightest indications OF disease on pota-

crop Of next year will be diseased from
such seed Every bushel of seed pota-

but we prefer as little glass as possible
in the house where poultry roosts. At
taehed to this house should be an open
front scratching shed, where the fowls
may stay during those days when out
door exercises is forbidden. This
scratching shed should be large enough
TO enable the fowls to scratch and
hustle. for it is this exercise that
makes the hens profitable. Straw or
litter of some kind, unthreshed oats
preferably, should cover the ground
to the depth of at least six inches. and
all main food should be thrown in the
midst of this.
The first work of the day for the hens
should be an hour or two at scratch
ing, and they should never be allowed
10 neglect it. Keep them in a partial
state of hunger until evening. when
they should have a full meal, sufficient
to satisfy them throughout the night
On nice days they should be compelled
to leave the shed and take exercise in
the bright sunshine. but above all
things, do not let them form the habit
Of waiting for feeding time to come.
Teach them to hustle from morning
till night. and they will keep healthy
and lay regularly. Those that do not
lay when given such care should go
to market and make way for those that
will.-Home and Farm.
