Small Chicks and vermin.

NuAcAB anu SerAin
In many sections, especially where
OLD buildings have to be used, one OF
the troubles in raising chicks is due to
rats and mice, especially the former.
These vermin destroy the chicks when
young, and usually raise havoc among
them just before they go under the
mother at night. When the chicks are
predetermined there is even more trou-
bic. for then there is no mother hen to
defend them. The only way to over
come this trouble is to have. the chicks
located in a building that is rat proof.
A correspondent writes that he has
found a way of doing this that is eff
receive. The rats would come up
through holes between the floor and
Inc studding, so he dug down for a foot
and laid some heavy wire netting, run
ming it up on the sides for a foot or
more. The soil was then thrown back
over the netting, which was laid flat.
Ihis kept the rats out of three sides,
and on the fourth side, where the
brooder was located and the entrance
to the run placed, sections of tin and
heavy boards were placed so that the
rats could not gnaw through them.
Some such plan as this could doubtless
be used on any farm, and thus the
great loss Of chicks from the ravages Of
rats be overcome.
The Penn's Grove record., 1903-08-14
Sheep on Poor Pastures.

working on the supposition that
sheep are much like goats in their
Willingness to eat almost anything in
b shape Of vegetation, many farmers
turn their sheepon to the worst pasture
on the farm. This would not be so
bad If there were a fair amount of
vegetation growing which the sheep
liked and they were fed a fair grain
ration. Indeed, this manner of pastur.
ing is one Of the best possible methods
Tor bringing up a partially wornout
pasture. Their .droppings will mate
rally increase the grass growth, and If
care is taken to sow more or less grass
n clover seed on these pastures each
spring they will assist materially in
croWding out the undesirable weed
growth. To expect sheep to thrive on
poor pastures without a grain ration Is
a mistaken idea. If the pasture is fair
to poor the sheep should have daily
about one-half the usual grain ration,
being careful that such ration is quite
rich in protein, which will be supplied
by most Of the concentrated grain
foods. Treated in this way the animals
will gain in weight and, unless the
pasture is very poor, can be sufficiently
fattened for the market by fall; or, at
least, will need but little finishing of
in b shed before sending to market.

Anthrax's Deadly work

While much has been said concern.
Ing n recent outbreak Of anthrax in
the vicinity of Lower Alloway the half
has not been told. In one day, or
night, thirty head were buried on
Round Island, and forty other head
were inoculated. The work of burying
the dead cattle was done by the own
ers, int the process was tedious. The
law ~enforces the burial Of these six
ieet below the surface. A layer of ten
inches OF lime is necessary, and, after
the cattle are put in the graves another
layer OF lime is placed upon them.
veterinarians are still down there, and
hard at work. Rufus Turner is the
heaviest loser, having lost nine cows
and five horses. People generally are
somewhat chary of using dairy prod
ucts, and not a few farmers are using
condensed milk, others boiling their
own milk before using, and some do
not use butter at all, substituting mo-
lasseS. There are some who will not
a crabs now, which can be readily
caught from the streams around there.
The Board of Health has enioined
obeyance of the stall laws concerning
the contagious diseases Of cattle. and.
as a rule, citizens are respecting the
wish. The inoculating process is going
on at the rate Of about seventy-iye a
day, and extends to all the farms for
miles around. Some of the heavier
losers Of cattle, besides Mr.. Turner.
are Charles Gallagher, Charles Dare,
William Stratton and William Elwell,
Benjamin Willis, David Willis, John
Donelson, Joseph Ayars, Leonard
Ayars and Edgar SHEPPARD.
