MANAGEMENT OF POULTRY.
Easiest Way Of Increasing Profit Il
Reduction Of Expenses by
Sensible Methods.

Many farmers turn their hens out to
forage, and give them no attention
Such system is Improbable, as the
farmer loses some of the eggs, and
also large proportion of the chicks.
When the farmer is too busy to attend
to the fowls he will not find them
profitable. Even If the flock has the
run Of an orchard, 1t must have shell
ter and protection at night, and lice
must be kept down. It is claimed by
some that 1t Is more profitable not to
confine the hens, because 1t is more
difficult for beginner to manage
flock In yard than when the hens
are at liberty, as he must supply all
their wants and must understand how
to avoid mistakes, especially those of
overfeeding; but 1t is maintained, on
the contrary, that If hens are on a
range they will linstinctively care for
themselves, and in so doing save the
beginner many annoyances. A large
number of farmers keep their hens up
to prevent depreciation in the garden,
although the hens do not damage the
garden as much as may be supposed,
but destroy many insects. If hen
with a brood of chicks secures an
opportunity to scratch up garden
that has been newly planted, they will
make sad havoc with the seeds and
very young plants; but as soon as the
garden Is we'll under way 1t Is as safe
from the attacks of hens as field

themselves with insects, tender grass
terminating weed-seeds, worms, and
other delicacies which he prefer The
proper mode Of management depends
upon the farm, the principal crops
grown, the climate, the number OF
fowls and facilities for transportation
to market. 1t Is difficult to frame rules
that are applicable to all conditions
There Is almost sure profit to be de.
rived under nearly all circumstances
as flock OF hens Is capable of SAVING
certain portions Of crops that cannot
be sold to advantage, such as seeds
grass, vegetables, small potatoes, etc
There Is at all times on the farm q lot
OF vauable refuse which cannot bs
saved except by the use of poultry. II
is true that other animals are also ser.
viceable In that respect, but the hens
give more immediate returns, supply
Ing eggs daily and bringing in cast
when three are no returns from othel
sources. In keeping flock of fowls
the object should be to feed nothing t.
them that can be sent to market, al
long as there is something unsalabl,
that will answer the purpose. Econo

chief purposes in keeping flock Il
to utilize the waste products. It is tn,
capacity of the hens to seek thier foot
that reduces expenses and increases
the profit.-Farm AMI Fireside.

Action of Lime ON Soil.

The Ohio experiment station gives
this simple explanation of one action of
lime: "If the lime be mixed with ma

air. II lime be mixed with the soil sim

Red Gum Coming to Front.

ing. While hickory. oak, ash and yell
low poplar were cheaply obtainable, red
gum received little attention. The in
creasing scarcity and rising price of
more adaptable trees have forced the
gum into market place Of late and have
caused lumbermen to seek. with par
tial success. such methods of handling 1t
~ would obviate the difhsulties which
have stood In the way Of larger use of

was dying. She had pined for her
lover until 1t had told upon a naturally
delicate constitution, and her parents
relented too late. Paul and Miriam
were married, but she lived only few
weeks.
The second part of the book takes
up the life of Paul and the Milltrums
in Chicago, and concerns a girl named
Judith Carreau, who was the daughter
of an old sweetheart Of Mr. Milltrums s
and he had taken the girl into his house
upon a promise made to her dying
mother. This Judith is mysterious
young person, and it is right here that
the story descends to melodrama. Ju-
dith is mixed up with a man named
Boutwell,; a rascal who was intriguing
against Bedford. Paul Bedford finally
marries Judith, whom he does not love

Her name, too, was Miriam. The end
or the story is melodramatic. Judith
kills herself after discovering that

was really her husband, and whom she
had thought dead, was alive. Paul
