great regularity.

Some of the small boys who get into
a business life can be relied upon fol-
good common sense. A man in one of
the big shops up town was much

boy, quick and reliable, and when a sec

wanted a boy as good as he was, and
he must know of After some
thought, he finally agreed to send one.

Sam was called to identify him.

Keen Only tho Best

1t !: poor business policy to keep
any number of hens in the flock that
have shown themselves improbable.
A close observation will Dol disclose
the %sluggards, and all such should at
once be removed from the flock and
prepared for the table. Old hens are
always in demand for the table, and it
does not pay to keep one that does not
lay, especially during the winter
months when grain must be purchased.
An experienced poultry a is soon
able to pick out the layers, their gen.
eral appearances indicating to the prac-
ticed y their worth as producers of
eggs. Those that lay have bright red
combs, sparkling eyes, and a busy,
hustling appearance, that denotes a
useful life. The drones go around slug
gishly, apparently contented to wait
for feeding time, rather than search
through the straw for scattered grains.
Select all such, and by a few days ex-
ira care, prepare them for market aRd
let the surplus food be sayed.-Home

Keeping Sheep Free from Parasites.

Keeping Sheep Free from Parasites.
Sheep are subject to a number Of ex-
ternal parasites, most of which are
spread easily. In order to prevent
spread of the trouble, the sheep should
be dipped at least twice a year. If a
flock become infected in any way,
quarantine it at once so that it will
not transmit the trouble to other sheep.
Any of the dipping tanks SO widely ad-
vertised is satisfactory, IS also the
prepared dips. The dip must be deep
enough in the tank so that each sheep
is submerged and obliged to swim sew
eral feet before getting out. See that
the wool is thoroughly soaked and ev-
cry bit Of skin moistened during the
dipping process.
During cool weather the dip must
be kept hot by. means of a small fur
mace or heaters prepared especially for
this purpose. In using a dip be sure
and select one that is free from any
thing which will injure the ibers of
the wool or be poisonous to the sheep.
Lime dips are apt to be injurious and
should be avoided. The dips should be
kept at a temperature Of from 100 to
ITO degrees.

Care of Work Horses in Winter.

A great many farmers have a large
number of horses which work hard
during the spring season and during
the autumn when the land is being pre-
pared for fall crops or being full
plowed for spring crops. AS soon as
this work is completed they have little
or nothing to do until next season.
Just how to take care of these horses
during that period is a problem. One
of the most serious features is the
change from hard work to idleness
without careful attention to feed. The
farmer seems to forget that the amount
Of grain should be restricted gradually.
If this is not done, Indigestion will
surely result. Give only a small feed
of grain but let the animals have a
liberal supply of roughage. If pas
ture is available, let them have some
grass, but do not compel them to live
only on green crops after a summer Of
dry, substantial feed.
There is frequently much difficulty
in feeding new corn and sometimes new
oats to these animals. If o ration con-
sisting partly of. new and partly of
old crops can be used, there will be
little danger of bad results.
A little later in the season when the
weather becomes cool and when corn
fodder is available, the ration may
consist largely of corn fodder with a
little grain. It does not pay to allow
the animal to become thin, but neither
is it profitable to feed expensive
grains. Experiment a little and see If
a good maintenance ration cannot be
secured from corn fodder, clover hay,
using possibly a little oats and corn.
If alfalfa is available it may take the
| place of grain to a large extent.
The treatment of colts during the
fall and winter is different. These an
imals are growing and must be given
oats, clover hay or bran, SO as to sup
ply material for building up bone and
muscles. 4 corr diet is a little too
heating for colts, but there is little
harm in feeding some corn. II a few
roots, such as carrots can be secured
and Kept for horses and colts during
the winter, the result will be entire
ly satisfactory.
For horses and colts not at work, a
very warm barn is not necessary. Any
one who has had experience in winter
ing horses knows that animals allowed
to run in the open field with a warm
she'd will do very nicely. A heavy
