White HOLLAND Turkeys.

From the Farmers Review: AS "A
breeder OF thoroughbred poultry for
some years, l would briefly state that
the White Holland turkey has proved
to be the most remunerative of any
breed Of fowl have kept. Some claim
one tom Is sufficient for ten to twenty
hens during the breeding season, but
am successful when only seven to
nine hens are mated to one tom, and
prefer seven. In the selection of
breeding stock I prefer a tom with
pure white plumage throughout, with
nice pink legs, standing up erect on
short, heavy leg bones, with heavy,
compact body and plump breast, and
not weighing less than 33 pounds.
The hens should be of like stamp and
build. and not weigh less than IS
pounds. When practical, mate old
hens with young tom and visa versa.
To insure fertility, turkeys must have
q wide range, and never use a sick!y
or weakly turkey in your breeding
flock under any circumstances. as it
is a SIRE road to financial loss. Our
turkeys have the whole Of the farm
to roam over, with eight acres Of blue
grass. For nests we turn down open
ended sugar and cracker barrels. plac-
ing litter therein with six-inch
board staked down In front to pre-
vent eggs from rolling out When
the turkey hen lays her first laying
and wants to sit, break her up and
in about two weeks she will COM
mence laying again. Set the first eggs
laid under a chicken hen and let her
sit, hatch and raise them. The next
laying let the turkey hen sit, hatch
and raise When young poults hatch
don't feed them for "a hours, and then
give them pure, clean well water and
feed light bread crumbs squeezed out
as dry as possible after sweet. milk
has been poured over. Mix with It
! a small amount of fine crushed oyster
J shells. In day or two commence
! feeding clabber cheese with plenty of
black pepper and oyster shells. When
taken of the nest place the poults
| and mother in pen 12x12 feet
square, made Of plank 1x12 feet long,
| with a large, roomy coop inside to
house mother and poults at night and
when raining. Leave them there un-
! Ill poults can fly out, and then let
them run at will, but coop them at
night and on rainy days. Then feed
them plentifully on whole wheat and
shelled corn; it will not hurt them,
with plenty of clean. pure water al
ways kept in fountain, and bugs and
grit. If these few scattering thoughts
are put into practice by some one
with good mother wit and lots OF
stick-to-it-iveness, with natural Xix.
ing for the work, success is assured

The odor OF onions may be removed
from the hands by rubbing them with
celery
Any green vegetable, like spinach,
Brussels sprouts, cabbage or peas, re-
tains It's color much better if left uu-
covered during the cooking process
Never use soda for washing china
that has any gliding on it. for the soda
will in time surely remove it all. In.
stead Of soda use little soap; that
has no bad effect.
Brass pans should be cleaned before
use Rub them with salt and vinegar,
then rinse thoroughly with water and
dry, with soft cloth. Thus you may
be sure that the pans are free from
verdigris, which Is a strong poison.

Der OF the group Of glandular struc
lures known as compound saccular or

Each gland Is composed OF 10 or 20
distinct lobes which are held together
oy connective tissue so as to form 0
single conical mass. Each lobe is sub
divided by penetrating septa OF
hbrous and fatty tissue into numerous
iosules which are again subdivided
into the individual sacs called acini
The acini are very small. barely vist

a minute tubular duct leading from IL.
These small ducts unite to form larger

erous, or milk-bearing, canals which in
turn empty into the large cavities at
the lower part Of the glands called
milk sinuses. The ducts and milk
sinuses are lined with epithelium.
BY way of illustration. in order to
make the description which have
given more clear, I will ask you to i'm
agine very prolific grape vine with
fifteen or twenty lunches Of grapes
hanging close together. This would
represent in rough way a mammary
gland, each one Of the lunches would
figure as a lobnle, and each grape on
bunch an acinus. Now conceive each
grape followed out almost to the hull
and then lined with small column-like
bodies. These bodies would represent
the cells. The stem of each individ-
ual grape will represent the small, In.
tralobular duct which conveys the sc.
erection out from the little sack In
which 1t is formed. The main stem of
the bunch and the principal branch

Ham and Euus.

To make a dish of ham and eggs as
good as possible, cut the ham nearly
half an inch thick. boil 1t in plenty Of
water till barely cooked through. pour
off the water and put the pan in
place just hot enough to brown the fat
part Of the ham slightly. but not hot
enOrgh to make smoke, or to brown
the lean meat much. When this is
finished, remove the frying pan from
the fire, take up the ham, pour off the
fat into & cup and wipe the pan till
It shines like a mirror, without
single speck to mar the polish. Then
put in a spoonful of the clear part of
the fat, break in the eggs and set the
pan in place scarcely hotter than
boiling water; cover it. and let the
eggs cook as slowly as possible for
four or five minutes. taking them up
as soon as they can be lifted out. Place
them around the ham, and do not pour
any OF the fat on the dish. Eat with
mashed potatoes

Forms Of Poultry Houses.

Probably we have not yet arrived at
the ideal poultry house, which should
be both serviceable and pleasing to
the eye. A good many experiments
have been made. and a good deal OF
light shed on the subject. 1t is pos
sible that there is no such thing as
an ideal poultry house, but that the
kind and cost win depend on the To-
cation and the locality In which 1t Is
to stand. A millionaire with doubtless
prefer TO build his poultry house OF
expensive material, paint It an ex.
pensive color, and have good many
frills around 1t. Out on the western
prairie, miles away from any other
farm, the settler will not be so much
concerned about looks, but will con.
struct his poultry house with the one
idea OF utility. II he finds sod good
material for building. sod will be used.
The dryness of the atmosphere or its
moistness will also modify the charac.
ter OF any such house as may be
constructed. Sod can" be used in
western Nebraska and like localities
where the rainfall is light. In fact
where the house can be kept dry, a
cave will serve many useful purposes.
as 1t Will be impenetrable to the cold
OF winter and to the heat o. summer.
There was time when poultry
houses were sunk into the ground, and
cellars were constructed for the use
OF the fowls even in the humid states
OF the Union. But these have been,
to considerable extent, abandoned,
owing to dampness, which seems to
be as hard on fowls as on human be.
ings. However, we have known OF
some very successful poultry arrange
ments of this kind. The writer knows
Of one wealthy woman who had
poultry house constructed over a Gel
lar dug for the purpose. The house
was good-sized one and the cellar
was as large as the house. In the
upper part of the building were kept
all kinds OF feed and poultry appli.
arces. A hundred hens roasted and
laid in the cavern below, which was
both dry and light. These hens were
very profitable. The use of cement
makes the poultry cave a possibility
without the attendant dampness. The
placing Of double windows and the
providing of ventilation are two things
that should be looked after where the
cave is used.
In the building Of poultry houses
tbove ground, the square house gives
the most room for the least money.
But this kind of house Is not popu.
lar. The long house is most preferred
by the public. If one will go TO the
establishments of the most prominent
poultry raisers. he will find long. mar
row houses, some Of them not more
than ten feet wide and 100 feet or
more long. This seems to give the
best result, where the fowls are to
be kept in small nocks and allowed to
run In yards. II fowls were to be kept
confined all the time the square, house
might prove to be the best. or even
If all were to be kept III one large
flock. But the necessity for dividing
the flock makes the long, narrow
house the most serviceable. It Is GER
tainly cheaper to build one long house
than several short ones, as the end
partitions Of all but one house are
saved. The fiocks In the long house
are separated by wire only and this is
very inexpensive.

Beef or Milk-Not Both

Speaking to Holstein breeders, Pro-
lessor H.. H. Dean said: Now, some
breeders of Holsteins advertise that
their cattle are both good for beef
and good for milk. In my judgment
that is q weak point. The Holsteins,
II | knew anything about their his
tory and characteristics, are essen
TALLY dairy breed, and was sur
prised to find when in Holland that
they seem to lay a great deal of stress
for both beef and milk. Some of the
upon that point, that they were good
farmers whom l talked with there
criticised that point, They remind me
very much OF an old German, whom a
young doctor was trying to impress
with the fact that he knew a great
deal about medicine. because he had
taken a course In both homeopathy
and ordinary medicine. He said:
Veil, that may be SO; vonce had a
calf that sucked two cows and he
made an ordinary steer after ALL"
Now, I believe'a man who is trying to
make his stock both good beefing and
good dairy cattle, will probably fnd
they are only ordinary steers after all,
or ordinary stock after all; and, II you
will allow me to say so, I think the
men who are emphasizing that point
are men who are emphasizing a weak
point in connection with the breed.
They are essentially. a dairy breed,
and the man who does not keep that
point prominently before him is the
man in my judgment who will make
. mistake.

Dairy Cow Constitution.

The first great essential TO be
sought in the dairy COW is constitu.
ton, without which she cannot stand
the strain of many years heavy feed
ing and milking. The wide chest.
good heart girth, and general appear
ance of vigor are the chief indica.
tons of constitution. Other points
largely indicative of production are:
A wide, strong muzzle and jaw; a
comparatively open backbone or
chine, indicating tendency to make
milk rather than fat; capacious bar.
rel, capable of making, use OF large
quantities of feed; and a roomy, well.
shaped udder with large mammary
and udder veins and milk-wells. A
well-known Canadian breeder has
tersely summarized these qualifica-
tons in the words: A big mouth, big
stomach and a big udder.--F. W. Hold
