THE PLYMOUTH ROCKS.
For Early BroiIers, Roasting F0w1s
Cnpons They Are One of the
Very Best Breeds.

No breed is so popular or well
thought of by farmers as the Plym-
outh Rock and no breed is so often
met with on farms. 1t is an Amer
lean breed adapted to American needs
and good in any and every place. The
greatest consideration among farm
ers is that they are hardy. They need
no pampering and are able to shift
fo~ themselves when necessary, yet
give big returns for good food and
care. The hens are good winter lay
ers of large brown eggs. They are
also good sitters and mothers. For
early broilers, roasting fowls or ca
pons they are one of the best breeds.

WHAT AILS THE PIGS2
A Question That Cannot Always Re
Answered to the Satisfaction
of Anxious InquIrers.

Pigs get out of fix and it is usually
through some disarrangement of the
stomach. There are some general
rules that should be observed at all
times for the purpose of protecting
the health of the herd. A profitable
hog that is ready and eager to eat
must, therefore, be a healthy hog.
great deal of the trouble with pigs
and hogs is occasioned by constipa-
ton. This is the beginning of their
troubles that later are not so easily
removed, says American Swineherd.
1t is therefore one of the first
things in looking after your hogs
health to prevent constipation. OF
course, hog may be all right in the
bowels and yet become afflicted. But
1t is the exception and not the rule.
1t takes vigilance at all times to pre-
serve the health of the hog. Adopt
cleanly methods about the pens and
feeding troughs. Have dry place
for them to sleep in. Don't expose
them to draughts in their sleeping
quarters. Don't overfeed. Don't
make sudden changes of feed Give
them charcoal and ashes or charred
cobs. Spread lime around their sleep
ing quarters and feed troughs.
When a pig is off his feed there is
something wrong, and you want to get
him back there as quick as possible
Don't do it by trying to force him to
eat. On the other hand, take away
his feed and if constipated give him a
physic. Look out for worms, prevent
lice provide him with plenty of fresh
water, plenty of salt and ashes. plen-
ty of range and if he gets sick the
percentage of exceptions are small
The sick hog IS an Improbable hog.
II you doctor him it costs money. it
costs time and it causes loss of gain
in the hog. 1t takes a great deal of
extra feed to get him started again to
the point where his health failed him.
Therefore it is far better to spend a
little time in preventing these ailments
by careful watchfulness.

THE CRY FOR BONE.
TO Improve Hogs Along This Line
Care in Feeding and JudicIous
Trca ment Are Necessnry.

We hear heap about bone in hogs.
and it may be worth while to think
little about it. If some sc those who
write about more bone and how to
get it would think little more their
articles would not mislead so much.
We are told over and over. saws the
National Stockman, and many people
actually believe, that the modern hog
is deficient in bone" and that we
must turn TO some big. coarse boned
strain to correct this defect.
There are two kinds of deficiency in
bone. One is a lack of quantity and
the other is a lack of quality. There
are few domestic animals that have
too little bone, but there are many
that have too weak bone. The way
to improve the bone is not to breed
to increase its size but TO feed to in
crease it's strength. In so dong the
size will be increased somewhat. Ra-
tional care will also do much o i'm
prove the quality of bone. The brood
sows and the sire should have plenty
of exercise, they should be fed we'll
balanced foods, they should have ac-
cess to the earth or to substitutes
therefore. With this kind of treat
ment there is little danger of raising
a hog without bone enough to support
all the meat he ought to carry. And
with this kind of treatment the mod
ern American type-the best that has
yet been produced from both the pro,
ducer's and the killers standpoint
can be preserved. 4 violent cross for
bone is not necessary for the man
who will study the feeding and care of
hogs

WELL-BRED PLYMOUTH ROCKS.

The bright yellow legs and skin gives
them very attractive appearance in
market.
The Plymouth Rock is good enough
for anybody and it has not been neces-
sary to bring out a lot of different
colored varieties. Yet in addition to
the original barred there is the pure
white and the buff. In dressing, these
two varieties do not show dark pin
feathers. The fancier who delights
to breed for farm and feather will find
ample opportunity with the barred
Plymouth Rock. The most prominent
breeders follow a system of double
mating-matching up one pen to pro-
duce cockerels and another for pull
let's. The demand is for much light
er color in males than in females. The
standard weights are: Cocks, 9h
pounds; cockerel, pounds; hen, 71a
pounds; pullet, 61a pounds. A typical
pair of show birds is here illustrated
from a picture taken for the Orange
Judd Farmer.

The Seaboard Air Line Railway, of Ports
mouth, Va, is advertising a beautiful, but
comparatively little known, region Oh the
West Coast OF Florida in three booklets
called The Land OF Manatee.' They are
issued by the Seaboard, but can scarcely be
termed a railroad advertisement, as the
only mention sf the road is III brief and
modest note printed ON the inside of one
OF the cover pages. They are, in fact, a
description OF Nanatee County, Florida,
with some account of its history and its
many interesting features which will ap-
peal equally to the general reader, the in
vestor, the fruit and vegetable grower, and
to the tourist and sportsman. The author
is Mr.. Morton Al. Cassaday, a writer OF
experience. The beauty OF the Manatee
country is well described, and the marvel.

derful healthfulness OF the climate are told

garden-spot OF all Florida, and the won
der IS that it has not sooner been settled
and the latent riches of its soil turned into
good American dollars. A most charming
feature OF these booklets is their typo
graphical appearance. They are printed
on handmade paper, and are delightfully."-
illustrated with Photographic halftone
Plates and ornamented with decorative de-
signs in flat monetones that make them
really valuable brochures. Persons in
terested in Florida, and especially in the

these booklets not only interesting, but full

happy he would be IL he was only big

Well, he grew and grew, and after
