Pekin ducks are probably the most
valuable breed of ducks known today.
They are very large, mature early and
have white plumage. The ducklings
hatch out stronger and seem to grow
faster than the young of any other
breed and can be raised anywhere that
you can raise chickens. They feather
rapidly and grow to good size in from
six to eight weeks, which makes them
well adapted for the early markets, al
lowing the highest prices They are
excellent foragers, excellent layers and
with good range require but little food.
The young are not subject to roup,
cholera or gapes, like young turkeys
and chickens. They will weigh from
twelve to fourteen pounds per pair the
first year without much fattening. As
egg producers their record is equal to
that of any other breed Of fowls

Look Out For the Lamp.

See to it that your lamp is always
full of oil, properly trimmed and burn
ing. Do not neglect the lamp and al
low it to go out or smoke the brooder.
Once a day the lamp should be put in
proper condition for its work. While
1t is quite necessary for the chicks to
be kept warm they should not be too
warm, nor yet be chilled. For the
youngsters 80 degrees is about right
when they are inside, and we must
remember that an empty hover at
80 degrees will soon go to 100 degrees
with fifty chicks inside. Too much
heat makes bowel trouble, as will cold
or damp or careless feeding. All of
these help to swell the mortality list
and increase the average cost of those
we grow to maturity Feather.

The Mule at the WORLDS Fair.

In case the plans of the chief of the
live stock department of the worlds
fair meet the approval of the manage
ment the mule and his kin will be ac-
corded unusual honors at st. Louis next
year. The worlds fair in st. Louis
will set new standards in many ways,
and Mr.. Coburn's effort will be to in
clude in these the standards that be-
long to the jack and jennet, and from
them down to the '.just plain mule" A
lack of knowledge exists as to the va
ried utilities of the mule, but this dis
play at the fair will be an eye opener
in this respect. 1t will tend to bring
the mule from all over the world. The
largest mule, the smallest mule, the
pack mule, the ambulance mule, all
other kinds of army mules, the draft
mule, the sugar mule, the cotton mule,
the burro-in short, any mule or any
of his relatives that have contributed
| to the worlds progress in peace or war
will find at the worlds fair chance
| to record his service to mankind. A
| live stock feature at st. Louis in 1904
will be a mule display likely to sur
| prise many man who now counts
| himself mule wise.-Home and Farm.

THE SOY BEAN.

As SoiIing or Si1age Crop In Rhode

Among the various uses to which the
soy bean is adapted, probably its use

in connection with corn, the former
being rich in the muscle making ele-
ments and the latter in the fat forming

riety of soils and are among the best
plants which can be used by the dairy

material lacked by the othes.
Soy beans may be used for silage
any time from the appearance of the
first blossoms until the pods are near
" mature, the best results usually be-
ing obtained if the plants are cut when
the pods are about half filed. Where
there are no facilities for ensiling the
crop it may be made into excellent hay,
providing the time of cutting is not
too long delayed. If to be cured for
hay. the plants should be cut as soon
as the pods are we'll formed. since if
cutting is delayed much longer many
of the leaves will drop during the cur
ing process and large portion of the
protein of the plant be lost.
When approachi1g maturity the
stalks of the plants become woody and
are not readily eaten by the animals,
although this difficulty may be over
come in a large degree by running the
hay through a feed cutter. All things
considered, the crop cannot be used to
so good advantage in the form of hay
as if used for soiling or silage.-G. E.

lGrowing under shelter at the Kentucky
experiment station.l
three to five acres per day. The tobac-
co now being grown in Texas is the
Cuban cigar leaf of several varieties.
This has been grown in large quaint
ties i'll few restricted localities, but
the market price has been unstable be-
cause the leaf has not been properly
and uniformly cured before placing it
on the market Here and there parties
have graded and cured the tobacco ac-
cording to market demands and the
wrappers have sold for So per pound.
A crop of 800 to 1000 pounds Of leaf
per acre is a satisfactory yield of Ha-
vana. Only 200 to 400 pounds of this
amount can be classed as wrapper.
Texas Havana is of such high grade
that when properly cured it cannot be
distinguished from the imported Hal
vana.
Besides the cigar tobaccos there are
the plug varieties grown under two
general classes, green varieties and
white Burnley. OF these two plug to-
baccos the white Burley is considered
far superior, as it gives to the wrappers
used ON the plugs the golden color SO
much priced. The culls of Burley and
the dark green varieties are used as
plug filters, for snuff and smoking to-
bacco.
The illustration is a view of work un-
der way on the Kentucky experiment
station grounds. Throughout that re-
gion the tobacco plants, grown under
cloth in protected beds, are set in the
field in April or May. The crop is
ready for harvest late in August or
about the LIST of September. The clean
est possible cultivation is given. The
plants are suckered and topped to de-
velop just so many perfect leaves per
stalk. This calls for careful hand la
Dor, such as is devoted to a tomato
crop in east Texas. Hand picking the
worms has now given way to the use
of arsenical poisons.
Only the freshest, strongest lime
stone land is selected for Burley, just
as sandy soils of soft, close texture
are wanted for the best grades of Ha-
vana Soils derived from Trenton lime
stone, such as are found in Ohio, Ken
lucky and Tennessee, are the Burley
soils of the United States.

JAPANESE NAPLES.
They Present Mass of Rich Colo

They Present Mass of Rich Color
ON the Lawn.
at the close of May there are no
more attractive shrubs on the lawn
than the Japanese naples, and espe-
cially is this true of two Of them,
the old blood leaved Acer polymor.
plum atropurpureum and the cut
leayed purple A. polymorphum dissec-
tum atropurpureum. These are both
"blood leaved" and make grand dis
play for several weeks, after which
there is less depth of color, but still
enough the whole season through to
make them worthy of their name.
The two sorts named above are the
best for dark red foliage. The green
leaved variety will be required in a col
lection, as its leaves are finer than the
fern leayed beech. The leaves Of A.
japonicum aureum are divided but
little. The color is greenish yellow al
first, deepening as the season advances
until finally of rich golden hue. A.
reticulatum is green and white, moi
an attractive sort when by itself, but
having place when a group of diff
ferent sorts is being formed. A. ampe
lopsilobum and A. cristatum are Of q
deep bronze green and are very hand
some either by themselves or planted
with others.
These naples are not difficult tt
transplant, even after having pushed
into growth in spring. But it will bt
found to pay those who have them tt
sell to pot a few in the fall or early
spring, fall preferably, to fill late orders
for them. To many persons they are
unknown, and it is only after the
plants are full of fresh foliage tha
they are seen and desired, and then it il
that the pot plant sells. A moderately
shaded place on the lawn suits these
plants, though they do very well il
the full sun, especially if the root
are kept cool by being in grass or by
being mulched.-Joseph Meehan ii

a favorable time Make the hole about

press the earth closely and firmly to
