Small Orchards Don't Pay.

There are locations where It is
more profitable to grow general farm
crops than to engage in fruit grow
ing and under such circumstances the
size of the orchard may well be limit
ed to the supply of fruit needed for
family use. If, however, fruit Is
grown for commercial purposes it is
a mistake to have a small orchard.
Under modern methods of care the
expense attending a small orchard Is
much greater in proportion to the num-
Der of trees than for large orchard.
OF course the intelligent man will in
vestigate market conditions before set
ting large orchards and will know
pretty well what may be expected
from his SOIL but when these things
are well understood and seem favor
able then the profitable orchard will
be the large one. Once set then the
care must be all required or the large
orchard will be a greater loss than the
small one would have been.

Ice and CoId storage Houae.

ace ana Nold storage house
While many farmers consider an ice
house luxury that is not for them,
a building such as is shown in the cut
may be erected at small cost, and if
the ice can be had for the cutting and
craving 1t will be found profitable.
Even in sections where ice is scarce
such a structure would be worth all it
cost TO a fruit grower who desired to
hold back his products in cold storage.
To make the house cheap build it
of any lumber obtainable, the essen
tial thing being to have it with an in
ner wall a foot from the outer wall
and this space filled in hard with saw
dust, straw, leaves or any similar ma
terial. Then pack on the bottom of the
floor foot of straw or hay or sawdust
and on this lay the cakes of ice. filling

Mntnritr of FowIs.

The Leghorns may mature in six
months. but with the larger breeds a
fowl is not matured if under one year
of age; and it is a settled conclusion
that neither animals nor poultry should
be used for breeding until the system
has had time to develop and make
complete growth. Pullets sometimes
begin 10 lay before they are fully
matured, but In such cases their eggs
should not be used for Matching pur-
poses. The use of eggs from pullets
that have not completed their growth
is sure to injure the flock If the prac-
tee is continued for several years.
