the bolt to go through. The inside
part of the leg where the hole is bored
should be made like a wedge, so as to
fit closely against the scantlings. The
pulleys are II inches in diameter, and
are made of wood. The rope should be
put over the top pulley and under the
bottom pulley. The legs should be

Quick Returns from Poultry.

A correspondent to one of our ex-
changes says: "One of the advantages
in poultry production Is that returns
come quickly. With the exception Of
trawberrles, there is practically no
line of small fruits which you can be-
gin to realize inside of three years; a
milk COW does not approach her full
power Of production short of three and
half years; apple trees do not begin
to bear freely short of seven or eight
years. How is it with the hen? Three
weeks from the setting Of the hen you
have n hatch of chickens; from four
to four and a half months from hatch
ing the cockerels are ready for the
market, and in five to five and a half
months the pullets will begin to lay"

A crop which can proftably be
grown to much greater extent and

OF different weights, one may have a
drag for almost any use. The cross
pieces are spiked on so that the posts
are about a foot apart and, as will
be noticed from the illustration, the
posts are placed so that the rather
sharp edges are forward, which pre-
vents clogging. AS will be readily
seen, the cost Of such a drag is very
small. and there Is nothing in Its con
struction but what may be done on the

Poultry and Small Fruits.

That there Is good profit in raising
poultry In connection with small fruits
has been repeatedly proved; on the
other hand, many failures have result
ed solely because provision has not
been made to keep the fowls from the
fruit plots. If this is done there will
By no trouble in working both indus
tries to advantage, for the time when
the fruit needs the most attention is
the period when the fowls need least.
In working this combination it is a
good plan to raise poultry largely for
the sale of the carcass In the fall and
winter production Of eggs; then, if the
young chicks are Matched early in the
spring, the work of the poultry Will
interfere but little with the necessary
attention which must be given the
small fruits. BY proper arrangement
of poultry yards and runs and the
small fruit plots there should be no
trouble In keeping them apart. For a
man who must handle small farm
alone there Is no better combination
than that Of poultry and small fruits.
