The Price of Eggs.

1t may seem strange for Il poultry
man to interpose any objection to the
high prices that prevailed throughout
the past year for eggs, and yet, in one
respect ut least, it has not been an
unalloyed blessing. Last spring very
many of us yielded to the temptation
of turning our eggs into ready cash
instead Of putting them in an incu-
bator or under hens. The result Is
very perceptible shortage of fowls.
The indications are that eggs will be
still higher this winter than last year.
The storage houses are short and all
provisions rule high. The wise poul-
tryman, therefore, will make an extra
effort to produce eggs this winter He
can do this most successfully by care
full attention to his feelings rations.
Eggs are largely question of diet.
Feed the hen the right kind of food,
aud she cannot help but lay. 1t Is
pretty well established fact that fresh
cut green bone Is the cheapest Of all
poultry foods, and at the same time,
the greatest egg producer. The man
who wants to produce eggs cannot do
better than to get a green bone and
vegetable cutter, and give his hens
the food that makes them lay.-Hunt-

PROGRESS on the Farm.

There is no progress being made IN
any line which is more noticeable than
that being made In agriculture. The
old slpshod. hit-and-go-m back
breaking type of farming Is rapidly
giving way before the newer and bet
ter way of doing things. There is
demand for scientific information on
soils, crops, breeding. feeding, an awaK-
ening to the value of the improved
breeds of stock of all kinds, remark
sble interest In the farm institute work
and a growing appreciation of the fact
chat agriculture offers as wide field
and as rich returns for man with
brains and education as any of the So
called professions. Invention has rop-
bed the farm of most Of its pitifui
drudgery and made 1t possible TO 40
farm work with dispatch. economy and
pleasure. Farmers Guide.

Keeping Seed Potatoes.

American Gardening tells how some
have kept their potatoes intended for
seed. Selecting them when digging,
they store them In dry shed or barn
until the weather gets cold. About the
middle of November they sort them,
rejecting all that show signs Of decay.
They then spread a layer Of straw eight
or ten inches thick upon the ground,
and place the potatoes on this. The best
results are from mounds about three
feet wide at the base and rising like
cone to about the same height. This is
covered with straw, and then by layer
Of soil from six to eight inches thick.
Before the weather gets too severe
more soil may be added, and when the
ground is frozen put on more straw or
strawy manure. They seem to winter
much batter than in cellars or when put
in mounds or pits MS soon as dry,

Popularity of Silos.

Reports from some Of the dairy sec
lions say that slos or silo stock Is
coming in by the carload and that the
number in use will be largely increased
this year and in future years. This
feeling in favor of the silo Is increased
by the fact that in many cases those
who feed ensilage are getting at the
creameries credit for more butter fat
and better price for their n6lk than
those who feed hay and do not eXpend
any more for grain, though they may
balance their rations little better, and
the good price paid for hay may have
some influence, for dairymen would not
object to having few tons Of hay to
sell and yet be able to keep as many
COWS and sell as much milk or butter
as they do when they feed out all Of
their Exchange.

Advice to Planters.

Select thrifty young trees in prefer
ence to old or very large ones; the
roots are more tender and fibrous,
they bear transplanting better and are
rar more apt to live. They can also
be more easily trimmed and shaped
to any desired form and in the course
OF few years will easily outstrip the
older ones in growth. Choose good
rich soil with sufficient slope to the
north or northeast If convenient. Avoid
sandy bottoms or knobs and points.
Prepare the soil thoroughly, laying off
In rows north and south with the plow,
as deeply as possible; it will save half
the digging. Every sixteen to twenty
feet In the row dig hole deep enough
TO set the tree a little deeper than it
stood in the nursery, and large enough
to admit all the roots spread out In
the natural position. Green's Fruit

In order to obtain the best results,
put two tablespoonfuls Of starch into
n clean deep basin, pour little cold
water over it-about half pint-stir-
ring all the time with a wooden spoon
until it is perfectly free from Jumps
and quite smooth. Then take the ba-
sin to the fire and while the water Is

Il quart of water to make this quanti-
ty. If made properly, the starch will
not require boiling.

A New Corn Husker.

Many attempts have been made to In
vent q machine that will husk the corn
direct from the standing stalk, none Of
them particularly successful. Among
the recently patented machines Is one
invented by a Nebraska man. BY means
Of two large spiral coils on either side
Of an elevation projecting beyond the
wagon tongue the corn is gathered from
the stalk or from the ground If the ear
happens to be down, and is run into a
husker In the front end of the wagon
box, which deposits the ears in the
wagon and blows the husks through a
pipe to the rear, where they are saved
In bags If desired.
