a little grain, not corn, bits of neat

Any left by the fowls should be re-

the coolest weeks OF winter to feed
the mash both morning and night.

PROFIT IN POULTRY.

Farmers are rapidly learning t
chickens are among the most valuaXe
assets of the farm. Given proper IL
tention they yield great percentage
of profit than any other class OF we
stock. The farmer has the adya1 age
over those living in villages of rec
range for his chickens. The fa} meE
who says poultry does not pay ne
who allows his fowls to roost the
trees in all sorts of weather a4e get
food when and where they can. With
such treatment they assuredly DO not
pay. Poultry raising is business
and requires a thorough knowledge
of the needs OF the fowls and methods
of supplying them.
AS general purpose fowls the Bar
red Plymouth Rocks cannot be excell-
ed. They mature quickly AID are ex-
cellent layers. beginning to lay when
six months old. When dressed they
show up yellow and clean and bring
a better price than fowls showing blue
skin and legs. For producing eggs a
mixed diet of the various grains, table
scraps and crushed green bone should
/. be given. Give a soft feed in the
morning-corn-mea bran and ground
oats in trough and little cracked
corn scattered in leaves or straw. For
the afternoon feed scatter oats, crack
ed corn, wheat and meat scraps in
the leaves.
AS important as the diet Is cleanli-
ness. Houses, yards and fowls should
at all times be kept in perfect condi-
tion, have dust baths, crushed shells,
gravel or crockery and fresh water ac-
cessible at al, times. Use whitewash
literally on fences, houses, nests and
perches. Change the straw in the
nests frequently. Have your houses
plain, roomy and tightly bnilt, but well
ventilated. Too much. warmth is in
furious and induces c6lds, which lead
to more serious diseased The perches
should be SO constructed that they
may be easily removed lwhen it is de-
siredsto clean the house which should
be frequently. l have my perehes set

In cold climates, or where the
houses are not as comfortable as they
should be, the birds may be kept
comparatively warm ct night by ar.
ranging old carpet or burlap ON poles
SO that il may be let down in front
of the hens after they have gone to
roost. The poles should be fastened
near the top of the house and the cur.
tains fall to within foot Of the floor.
They will shut out all of the draft
and enable the body heat or the fowls
to assist In keeping them warm. In
addition to this if the birds are fed
hot corn before going 70 roost and

DAIRY DOTS.


soda Is better than soap to use in
washing milk vessels.
Before being washed All milk yes
sells should be rinsed with cold water.
The only successful MILKING ma
chine in use is good pair of hands.
A Canadian test shows that cows
that are deprived Of salt give seven
teen per cent. less milk
Good butter is never SO plentiful
that it will not command a price that
is profitable to the maker-that is, IL
ii is good.
A COW that lays on fat while giving
milk, does not belong to the dairy
class. A good milk COW deposits her
fat in the milk bucket.
To determine a mich cows profita-
hleness, notice particularly her milk
after three or four months from the
time that she becomes fresh.
One who is good mixer is very
careful to get all the milk from COW
before leaving her. Any other prac-
lice will influence the COW wrongly.
Pedigress hold out promise OF profit
in q COW. but results are more i'm
poltant. The milk bucket and the
churn chow the value OF mixers
Never allow cows that are heavy
with calf to be run by dogs or men.
Occasionally dog is found that de-
lights in worrying cattle. Treat snch
q dog with lead.
A cow can no more give good fiow
OF milk without a proper amount OF
good food. than large baking of
break can be made with only -four to
make a loaf
In dairying. as in all other occu-
paiions. there is room at the top and
it Is in the better class of dairying
that the profits lie, for this is as yet
Geld almost wholly unoecupied.
The advantage OF using rock salt
for COWS is that they help themselves
without aid from their keeper and do
not get too much al a time, as they
might IL granulated salt were used.
When specks of dirt are seen on
the foam in a milk pail. it is good
evidence that the dairy work is not
can enough. Filth in the milk pre-
ents the making of choice butter.

BONE MEAL AND ASHES.

fessor Henry as to the advantage
of feeding bone meal and wood ashef

corn meal, it was found that the eff.
feet of the bone meal aud wood ashes
was to. save abeEt twenty-eight per

strength of the thigh bones, while

value in this respect. The results
show the great usefulness of bone
meal and ashes, especially where
much corn is fed to hogs.

ment and owns his factory clear of debt. Several of the largest canning establishments are capitalized with over a million dollars, and operate many factories running night and day during the busy season, each factory at it's best turning out 50, 900 cans per day. Such large concerns are developed only after years of experience in the man. agement of smaller establishments. The brief bulletin is prepared to meet the queries of persons seeking their first information about the canning business, and not as a guide to the ex- pertS. The canning factories putting up limited quantity of but one line of goods are better able than large factory to give the closest attention to details and thus can insure an excel lent quality in what they pack. Many of these factories contract to put up goods for large factories and thus dis pose at once of the entire pack. A fair price may be secured in this way, but large profits due to real or fictitious ''short supply" reports are sacrificed to the larger speculator in the goo ds. The jobbers in canned goods are often responsible for extreme fluctuations in ing no opportunity to know the exact condition of the supply is induced to sell on very small margin of profit. The packer should keep himself ln- formed concerning the true state of affairs with information from the most reliable sources, that he may protect his interests against the misrepresen- tations of speculators Much canned goods is sold at first hand below cost, simply because the packer could not afford to hold his goods until an appar- ent glut was removed.

Every farmer knows that some plants grow better than others. Soil may be the same and seed may seem the same but some plants are weak and others strong.
 And that's the way with children. They are like young plants. Same food, same home, same care but some grow big and strong while others stay small and weak.
 Scott's Emulsion offers an easy way out of the difficulty. Child weakness often means starvation, not because of lack of food, but because the food does not feed.
 Scott's Emulsion reallyfeeds and gives the child growing strength.
 Whatever the cause of weak ness and failure to grow Scott's Emulsion seems to find it and set the matter right. Scott Bowne, Chemists, 4oe Pearl St. New Yort soc. and ST .oo all druggists.
