cult to handle and store. A ration
composed of mixture of the grains
named, with green food and meat,
should be divided about as follows:

is per cent. It is best to feed meat
every day, giving about four and one
half pounds to each 100 fowls II you
can secure fresh bones from the
butcher and have bone cutter, this Is
probably the best meat supply. II
bones are difficult to secure, feed gooi
grade of beef scraps.
The number of females to one male
varies with the different breeds. For
the lighter and more active breeds,
such as Leghorns, 20; Plymouth
Rocks, Is to 20; Brahmas, 10 or IL are
safe numbers.
In locating poultry plant it is
great advantage to have the houses Ill
face the south or southeast. House
room 12x14 is suhicient for Is fowls,
and the yards 24x100 feet are also
about right for this number Your
plan is good II the houses all face the
south. The rms may extend from
the north side if desired. An old or
chard is an ideal place for locating
poultry plant, and is especially valu-
able as a run for growing stock. An
other excellent plan is to have houses
int middle of the runs, making then.
80 feet deep on each side Of house.
The accompanying plan. is q good
one. Houses are 10x32 feet, divided
into two pens each; 1Ox16, holding q
fowls each. Yards, 22x50; two to each
pen; one in front and one in rear of
house. The hens can be allowed to oc-
cupy both yards, or may be confined
to one yard while forage. crop Is
growing In the other. Portable fence
may be moved from one side to the
other, thus saving half the cost of
fence and leaving, the ground on one
side Of the houses clear for cultiva-
ton. The houses all face the south.
This plan may be extended to accom-
modate any number of fowls.

More Yard Room for Hens.

Where fowls are kept yarded they
do not often have the amount Of yard
room that should be given them. On
our farms restrictions of this kind are
not necessary, as land is worth too
small a price to make it necessary to
lessen the amount the. fowls should
have. The small amount allotted to the
poultry is often due to the cost of fenc-
ing. But the larger the yard the less
the cost of fencing. II no top rail is
used. four feet will be found high
enough for wire fence, If the yard is
Of good size The smaller the yard the
higher will the fence have to be. as the
smaller the yard the more strenuously
will the fowls try to get out OF It,

HELPFUL POULTRY HINTS.

Disinfectants are better than disease.
The chicken coops should be large,
airy and proof against rain.
A boiled egg which is done will dry
quickly on the shell. when taken from
the kettle.
sawdust, shavings and excelsior are
Objectionable for nest material. Use
straw or leaves.
Wooden floors close to the ground
attract the damp from the earth. and
are always moist.
The dust heap aids materially to
cleanse the feathers and skin from YER
min and Impurities.
The eggs from hens by themselves
will keep good three times as long as
those that are fertile. s.ss.-s,es---s==-,..-se
Sell of the surplus cockerels and do
not retain the late-hatched pullets, as
they will not lay until spring.
In feeding fowls at any time, whether
in confinement or not, give only 80 much

is Indigestion. caused by feeding too

END OF THE HEARST BOOM.

The Hearst boom for the democrat
ic presidential nomination is in a
state of collapse. So many states have
selected their delegates and so few
have given instructions for Hearst
that it is evident he will fall far short,
not only of securing enough votes to
nominate him, but also of controlling
the convention.
He might prevent the nomination
OF a man Objectionable to him if he
should secure one-third the delegates,
democratic national conventions re-
quiring a two-thirds vote to nominate.
But he will not have the requisite n e
third.
While Parker will lack a great deal
of two-thirds, it is probable hat on the
first ballot he will secure considerably
more than one-third. 1t is doubtful,
however, if he will gain enough on sub
seQuent ballots to give him the nomi-
nation. although he will be distinctly
III i'ShlHS " 'he' INV
The Hearst boom was so clearly a
manufactured affair that it never had
any real prospect of success. He has
utterly no claim on the democratic
party for a nomination to the presi-
dency. He has never done anything
to justify nominating him for the gov
ernorship of a state, much less plac-
ing him before the people as the can
didate of a great party for the highest
honor in the gift of the American peo-
pie. Probably he never thought he
could carry off the prize.
He has secured, however, some ad-
vertising by his candidacy, and that
doubtless is compensation enough in
his opinion for the expenditure OF
time. money and effort to secure dele
gates.-Denver Republican.
