The Many Sided Pou'try Man.

The successful poultryman must be
many-sided. Poultry raising is COM
plicated business and requires a good
deal Of knowledge Of good many
things. This knowledge is not ac-
quired in a 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 stan
dards Of perfection. His knowledge OF
all the experiments with poultry
should be complete. No poultry book
Of value should be outside of his Ii
brary. To possess himself of the
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
and 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
a hard thing to procure, as it requires
much loss Of time and material 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 be 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 t17ae.

To Prevent Lunxworm Infection.

To Prevent Lung gwOrm Infection.
Report Bureau of Animal Industry:
While the outlook for successful med
ical treatment of cases of lungworm
infection, and Of infection with the
encysted stomach-worm (Strongylus
OsterlagD is not encouraging, at least
a part of the infection may be pre-
vented. The following methods for
prevention are suggested:
First. Every ranch should have q
hospital pasture situated on high. dry
ground. well drained and without any
pools or ponds; it should be supplied
with raised troughs for watering and
feeding. and the water supply should
come from a we'll. This pasture should
not drain into any pasture in which
healthy stock are feeding.
Second. AS soon as any sick animal
is noticed in the large pasture it
should Immediately be separated from
the healthy stock and taken to the
hospital pasture. To allow sick ami
mails to run at large with healthy
stock means to deliberately permit the
spread of infection in the pastures
aNd thus endanger the we'll animals.
Third. Proper watering places
should be supplied in the large pas
lures by digging wells and erecting
windmills to pump the water into
tanks. These tanks should be raised
above the ground so that they can
not become contaminated with the
droppings from animals being washed
into them by rains and floods.
Fourth. Select high, sloping ground
for pasture when this is possible. Low
pastures should be properly drained.
Fifth. Burn the pastures regularly.
thoroughly and systematically. The
heat from the burning grass will kill
many OF the eggs and young worms on
the grass, ground and in the drop
pings.
Sixth. AS these parasites are more
fatal to young animals than to old
ones. liberal supply of oats or some
similar food will aid in giving to
young animals strength that will en-
able them to withstand the infection.
A daily allowance of, say. half a
pound of oats per lamb ought to re-
duce the mortality. At first, they may
not be inclined to eat it, but will soon
become accustomed to it. This simple
precaution is reported as very effectual
in New Zealand.
Seventh. Keep plenty OF salt acces-
sible to the animals. Some men add
slaked lime to the salt. AS a matter
OF experience salt kills many young
worms.

Public Milk Testers

Gradually there is growing up the
idea of having officials appointed by
the government do the milk testing
This is being urged in some countries.
1t is a thing certain to become the
practice in the not distant future. The
man that takes milk to the creamery
is often dissatisfied at his test. If he
does not believe it dishonest, he be-
Heves it made by an incompetent man,
and the latter belief is not infrequent-
ly we'll founded. Under the present
system the milk tester finds all of his
interests on one side. 1t has been ac-
knowle6Nyed in some cases that the
tests have been doctored to keep the
patrons satisted-that is, the high
tests have been slightly reduced, and
the low tests slightly raised A part
Of the cream of the man with good
cows has been given to the man with

Cu'.,v.te the Trees.

The director of the Oklahoma sta
ton says: Many of the trees that were
planted for shade and fruit this spring
are already dead. Many more will die
before the summer is past. The chief
cause for this loss has been and will
be neglect. Assuming that the trees
have been planted properly and that
they were of sorts adapted to Okla
Iona conditions, at least 95 per cent
of those planted should live and thrive.
Orchardists as a rule give their trees
every needed attention and lose but
few trees. The most notable example
Of intermittent enthusiasm may be
seen along the streets Of towns and
cities. When spring comes, nearly
every one plants trees as a matter OF
course or to get rid of some tree agent.
Too often when the planting is done,
no further attention is given. After
planting. the dirt is often piled up in
nice mound about the base of the
trees possibly with the notion that
this will hold the tree in place. The
result is that what rain falls is drained
away from the roots of the trees in
stead of toward them. Instead there
should be a slight depression about the
trees SO as to get little excess of wa
ter if possible and let it soak in. Cul-
uvation throughout the summer
should be given if trees are wanted.
The growth CT the trees will be better
If all the space between them is cul
t!vated after every rain. This is hard
ly desirable about the house and the
next best thing is to cultivate space
about the trees. The soil should be
hoed and kept loose for space OF
from three TO five feet a bout the trees
the larger the cultivated space, the
better. 1t isn't hard matter to grow
trees If one will give them a little at
tention right along and will think Of
them as a crop that should be culti-
waited il good growth is expected. A
treeiess town is always cheerless to
the stranger. while streets bordered
with thrifty trees are attractive and
are appreciated by all. Cultivate the
trees every time it rains and some
times between times.
The Jennings daily record., 1902-07-08
CuCumbe-s.

Every farmers garden contains or
should contain cucumber patch.
There is 10 product that is grown
more easily or that gives better re-
turns frr the work put upon it. The
soil th;Athe cucumber likes best is a
warm. sandy. light soil Any soil,
however. will do, if not exceedingly
heavy. The ground should be well
prepared. which is the requisite for al
most any crop. The Old way of pre-
pairing the ground was to burn over
2 piece of ground. dig a hole and put
IN a wheelbarrow load of manure. This
mode is still with us. The method
does not commend itself, especially
the part that requires a large pile of
manure in the hill. 1t is far better
TO mix the manure with the soil. When
the manure is placed in the soil in a
mass the roots that penetrate it dry
out more quickly than do the same
roots if penetrating a firmer bed. 1t
is of no use to plant cucumber seed
before the weather has settled down
and the ground has become warm.
Cucumbers need good deal Of room,
and the usual mistake is to get the
hills so close together that the vines
are numerous and picking is done
with difficulty. Hills should be not
closer to each other than four feet,
and when the plants are up they
should be thinned out to not more
than two or three in hill. If the
ground has been 1orked deeply and
the manure we'll mixed with the soil,
no watering should be necessary in an
ordinarily dry time. Gather the Gu
cumbers as fast as they get large
enough to use, SO that the vines will
continue to bear freely.

The Cows Digestive Machinery

The digestive apparatus of the COW
is something to carefully consider
when buying cow or when breeding.
The powerful digestive system is need
ed in the dairy that the most may be
made out of the feed. The large eater
is the COW that makes the most money
for her owner. Some COWS have diges-
tive systems of such weakness that
they are easily foundered. They go
"off feed" at every opportunity, and
their milk yield is decreased in conse-
quence. On the other hand, there are
COWS that can eat any amount and
never be disturbed by it. The owner
once had such cow. One night she
got loose and found her way to the
feed bins and boxes. She proceeded
to fill up in the most complete man
ner In the morning she met her own
er at the door She was evidently
packed as full of corn meal and mid
dlings as she could be, with nothing
but breathing room left. A foundered
COW was the expected result of the
feasting. The animal. however, ex-
perenced no inconvenience from the
gorging, and the next day was ready
for her accustomed ration. She was q
large producer of very rich milk.
