Many a dollar is Invested every year
by men who wish to make poultry
breeding a business. Some enter the
market poultry line and others the line
of the fancy, and the question is often
asked, Why do not more of them make
it a success? Is it the fault of the men
or the business? That the business is
not at fault is evident from the fact
that so many men have been success
full at it; so that the answer must be
that the fault lies with the men.-PouI-

Straw and Corn Fodder.

1t is not many years ago that farmers
in the Western States were burning
their straw stacks to get them out Of
the way. There was apparently no
market for it excepting at points where
the cost of transportation was likely to
exceed the price for which they could
sell it. Now at nearly every market in
the States the price of good straw Is
as high as that of No. 1 hay, and in
some places it is higher. There were
some who would not burn it, but put it
in the yards for the farm animals to
pick what they wished to of it, and to
trample the rest into manure. After
few years it was found that the farms
Of these men increased in fertility and
product1veness, and the practice Of
burning straw was nearly discontin-
ued even before the common use of
the baling press made it profitable to
ship it to Eastern markets. A change
almost as great has taken place in the
opinion of the value of corn fodder. 1t
is but very few years since the corn
growers of the Western States cut no
corn fodder, but after picking off ears,
let the cattle and hogs in to pick and
break down the fodder or what they
would of it, and then it was task in
the spring to break down the rest so
that it could be plowed under. Now it
Is nearly all being put through the
shredder, and made so fine that any
stock eats it, and it is thought as val
liable as the average Western hay

Cooking Food for Stock.

There is but little doubt but that
with potatoes or other starchy foods
there is a gain in cooking them over
feeding them raw, and among the
starch foods we also include corn and
wheat, and that gain has been esti-
mated at FROM ten to twenty.per cent.
If not over ten per cent, it will scarce
ly pay to take the trouble of cooking
unless it can be done without using
extra fuel, or there are large number
to cook for. A gain of twenty per cent
in feeding value would come nearer
leaving profit to pay for tie labor,
but that must depend greatly upon the
amount of grain and the kinds, mixed
with the potatoes. Fod beets, turnips
and pumpkins, we do not think it pays
to cook them, as they are too watery
when boiled.-EXchange

most of the tassels will be removed.
If the tassels begin to come out early
in the week the detasseling can be
done Monday, Wednesday and Friday
mornings.
Select an average place in the corn
field, preferably in one corner of the
field. Count off 112 hills long and 30
rows wide. Detassel the first two
rows, and leave the next two rows.
Repeat this operation of detasseling
two rows and leaving two rows until
there is a total of 10 rows detasseled
and 16 rows not detasseled. Each set
of two rows can be harvested and
weighed separately, in this way Sc

detasseled and the not detasseled row.

Potato Patches.

When Governor Pingree, of Detroit,
inaugurated the policy of allowing
the poor people in that city to cult
vate unoccupied lots and plant them
with potatoes he set in motion n
series of events that bore far-reach-
ing results. The plan has been tried
i'm Philadelphia. In 1897 some phil
anthropic people of that city organ
lied an association, took twenty-seven
acres of land, cut it up into one hun
dred gardens and produced that year
vegetables and other produce valued
at six thousand dollars. The plan
has been gradually extended until
there are now more than 200 acres in
cultivation divided into eight hun
dred gardens, and the tenants are
expected this year to derive $4,000
from the sale of the product of their
summer labor.
The results in Philadelphia have
been such as to astonish the entire
city and thoughtful men are inquir-
ing whether a further application of
the doctrine would not benefit the
commonwealth.

Labor,s Appeal for Fairness.

The course taken by the national
convention of mine workers at In
dianapOlis is generally approved, save
perhaps by some of the miners them
selves, who do not like to be so
heavily assessed. y 10 per cent as
sessment will fall rather heavily on
many of the miners whose wages are
not any too high to begin with, but
most of them are ready to make any
sacrifice in the cause of unionism,
labor and justice.
The appeal issued to the American
people is an impressive one. There
is nothing new in it, but it is remark
able because ii comes from the great
est labor organization in the world
and because it represents the senti-
ments of millions of people, the
miners and their families. That APP
peal made by the miners outlines
clearly one of the greatest political
issues of the age. There is a marked

DetasseIing Corn.

The agricultural experiment sta
ton at the University of Illinois has
issued a circular which says il has
been claimed that when the stalks of
corn are detasseled the yield is there
by increased. As this is question
which is of great Importance to the
farmers of the state and upon which
there is little exact information, the
experiment station asks assistance,
in an effort to obtain more informa-
ton regarding this NATTER he plan
for the experiment is very Sfmple.
Care should be taken that the detas-
selling is attended to at the proper
time, which is just as the tassel be-
gins to peep out of the upper leaf,
says the Champaign News. At this
time the tassel can easily be removed
with little injury to the stalk, and
little of the substance of the plant
will have gone into the formation of
the tassel. The field for the expert
ment should be gone over at least
three times in one week when the
corn is tasseling. The tassels do not
all come out at one time, so by going
