MOLES.

The Kansas Agricultural College
has just issued a newspaper bulletin
On moles. 1t says, greatly condensed:
Moles have few natural enemies. as
they seldom come to the surface.
Their food consists chiefly OF earth
worms and insects that live in the
ground, and the presence OF moles IN
large numbers is evidence of the
abundance OF their food. They de-
stroy noxious insects in great num-
bers, especially the grub worm or
May beetle larva, and were it not for
the damage they do to lawns and
crops by throwing up their ridges,
they would be more beneficial than
harmful. They seldom eat grains of
newly planted corn. This is done
principally by field mice that follow
them. In killing item by poison the
best method was to poison green
corn Tin the roasting ear stage) with
strychnine and placing it in their
burrows. Unroasted peanut kernels,
poisoned, were also quite successful,
as was shel,ed corn, soaked in syrup
and strychnine Bits of meat and
lead insects, poisoned, have been
used successfully, but there is more
danger of poisoning dogs when meat
Is used as the burrows lie close to
the surface.
Traps for catching moles are sold
n most of the hardware stores.
Nearly all of them work by the use Of
4 spring coil which, when released,
drives a number of sharp tines into
the ground and through the mole.
Some experience in setting these
traps will lead to the best results;
but trapping is a much, slower pro-
cess than poisoning.
NOES are usually actively at work
n the early morning or late in the
afternoon. At times there is also a
short period of activity about noon.
It is not difficult to kill them with
pitchfork when they are working, the
animals being located by observing
The movement of the ground above
hem. If water is allowed to run into
the borrow and fill 1t, the animal
when present can be forced to come
10 the surface to avoid drowning, and
may easily be killed. The writer at
1ne time killed female and six
young at one such operation The
oest remedy for the damage done to
lawns and grassplots by moles is
prompt rolling with heavy roller.
By continued repetition. of this the
moles will be driven away, at least
temporarily.

quires the condition of ability to di.
gest. The cow should have wide
space from the. hindquarter to the
rib. The shape and bones, even, of
all animals are gradually changed by
environments and feed Robbing the
udder constantly stimulates action of
those and calls for more food. e.. a
larger paunch-and the ribs were in
the way. There are many cows
which have floating rib, and from
some it has disappeared. The con-
stantly enlarging paunch increases
the strain on the back, the ribs are
less sprung and the crest and fish
back appear to give more strength.
Not SO handsome, perhaps, but
handsome" is the bane of the breed
er- The sprung rib indicates fat on
the pack rather than in the pail. All
1000 is converted into milk through
the blood. Feed and care tend to
create form, and many almost over
come breed tendencies and ruin the
animal. We should feed to give
great girth and give heart capacity;
free action of the lungs, so blood will
be purified. The great tendency to
and prevalence of tuberculosis may
be from insufficient luns action and
improper form. The pelvic arch
should be above the level, an indica-
ton OF strength, and enables the cow
10 calye easily. Such cows, with a
proper selection of the sire, are u.s.
ually well able to transmit their quail
ties to the offspring. A big mouth is
an indication of ability to use coarse
foods; the mouth is an indication of
the size of the intestines. A weak,
small mouth and inferior-sized intes.
tines are not good signs of a great
producer.-O. c. Gregg, in the Massa-

who returned to-day from visit to his
home at Fargo, North Dakota, said in
an interview: The proper way to de-
scribe the manner In which the people
of North Dakota are coming over into
Western Canada il to say they are
coming over In droves. Among the
people there did not seem to be any
thought Of there being boundary line
at all. 1t is simply . question:" added
the major, "of there lot being any
more land In North Dakota and the
surrounding States, and the people are
focking to Canada to get good farms.
Naturally the number that will come
over will increase all the time, and
may say the people you are getting are
the best people In the West They are
well supplied with money and are well
acquainted with the conditions under
which they will have to work." The
agents Of the Canadian government are
prepared to give the fullest information
regarding homestead and other laws.

Why Old People are Especially Liable
to Systemic Catarrh.
When old age comes on. catarrhal dis
eases come also. Systemic catarrh ia
almost universal in old people.
This explains why Peruna has become
so indispensable to old people. Peruna
is their safeguard. Peruna is the only
remedy yet devised that entirely meets
these cases. Nothing but an effective
systemic remedy can cure them.

FEED COCKERELS FOR MARKET
When the chickens are moved TO
the field the sexes are separated. Tne
cockerels are confined in yards, III
lots of about one hundred, and FED
twice daily on porridge made OF four
parts corn meal, two parts middlings
or flour, and one part fine beef scrap.
The mixed meals are wet with skim
milk or water-milk is preferred
until the mixture will just run, but
not drop, from the end of a wooden
spoon
They are given what they will eat
of this in the morning and again to-
wards evening. 1t is lett before them
until all have eaten heartily, not
more than an hour at one time, after
which the troughs are removed and
cleaned. The cockerels are given
plenty of shade and kept as quiet as
possible.
We have found our chickens that
are about one hundred days old gain
in four weeks feeding from 1 3-4 to
2 IA pounds each, and sometimes
more. Confined and fed in this way,
they are meaty and soft and in very
much better market condition than
though they had been fed generously
on dry grains and given more liberty.
Poultry raisers cannot afford to sell
the chickens as they run, but they
can profit greatly by feshing and
fof+
Many careful tests in chicken feed
ing have shown that as great gains
are as cheaply and more easily made,
when the chickens, in lots not to
exceed one hundred, are put IN
house with a floor space of seventy
five to one hundred feet and yard
Of corresponding size. as when they
are divided into lots of four birds
each and confined in latticed coops,
just large enough to hold them. Four
weeks has been about the limit or
profitable feeding, both in the large
and small lots. Chickens gain
faster while young. In every case
birds that were $50 to It's days old
have given us comparatively small
gains. The practice of successful
poultrymen in selling the cockerels
at the earliest marketable age is well
founded, for the spring chicken, sold
at Thanksgiving time, is an expen-
sive product.
The experiments referred to above
indicate that they can be retained
and fed a few weeks, in inexpensive
sheds, or large coops with small runs,
and sent to the markets dressed, and
make good returns for the labor and
care expended. The quality OF the
well-covered, soft-fleshed chickens, II
not too fat, is so much superior to the
same birds not specially prepared,
that they will be sought for at the
higher price. The dairy farmer is
particularly well prepared to carry on
this work, as he has the skimmilk,
which is of great Importance in OBJ
tanning yield and quality of fesh.--
