 Catch the old-timers and let the board ing house have them. In selecting fowls for the farm pro- cure those clean of limb, hardy and wide rangers.
 One good breed of chickens, we'll cared for on the farm, is worth a dozen varieties neglected.
 Fowls having free run will find their own feather-malSing food.
 A good laying hen will often lay her weight in eggs in six weeks.
 Meal should be mixed dry and crumb- ly; 1t causes illness when too wet.
 Eggs for setting should be turned over every day
 Eggs intended for matching should be kept as near 40 degrees as possible, but es high as 60 will not hurt them.
 Watch for lice and mites. and if you don't find them, fight against them any how. Clean poultry premises and eternal vigilance are the only safeguards against disease in the flock. and these pests are the greatest evil that breeders have to contend with.
 The evening meal before roosting time should be of grain, both for fowls in small runs and those that have their freedom. Wheat is about the best all- round grain. The birds like it. They da not get too fat internally on it or ac- quire liver disease. as they so often dc when fec on corn.
 In feeding fowls study nature, and give them things they like best.
 To give fowls employment, hang ur ears of corn or sheaf or oats within easy reach.
 In feeding grain to fowls 1t is best to scatter and make them hunt for it.
 liberal dust bath for fowls is the best protection against yermin.
 Fowls suffer more from dampness than from any other cause.
 Every poultry house should be white washed several times during the year.

THE PIG PEN.

The best place to winter hog is in fhe smokehouse.
 l All the bacon consumed in Alabama, should be raised In Alabama.
 Pigs. when being pushed heavily, should have lots of exercise.
 For bacon for domestic use, nothing equals the Berkshire.
 Berkshire February pigs from improved stock that receive proper attention, should net by killing time from 1so to 200.
 Pigs should be kept in good growing order without at any time being too fat, until ready for the fattening pen
 Make the slop thick, just so 1t pours readily; put a little salt in it; it aids digestion and is relished more by Che pigs.
 Hogs should be given free run In wood land pastures at this season of the year with an abundance of fresh, clean water and plenty of salt with an occasional supply of charcoal.
 Keep the brood sows with young pigs in good order, and where they fail to make good mothers, turn them into the fattening pen this fall.
 The average p.gpen is a place of tor ture. and should be abolished, and is abol- ished. by all intelligent and humane hog raisers.
 It Is a mistake to suppose that at any period of hogs life. from birth to the day of slaughter. he is better off with out exercise.
 The hog, even up to killing time, should have plenty of fresh air, exercise and room to keep himself clean. which he will do if afforded an opportunity and which he cannot do when confined in narrow cage like a criminal.
 The best food for pushing pigs is milk mixed with shorts placed in trough close to the pen where the mother can not get at it. The little pigs quickly learn 1t is for then and as soon as they eat 1t up good, add a little corn meal with it., and when three months old put as much oata wrnund fine as shorts and
