A to Farm Poultry.

AZ TO Il IOuAtkJs
It is very hard to make farmers un.
derstand how great their advantages
are in poultry raising. They will say
the work does not pay, for 1t takes
their time from crops that bring more
money. There is something in this II
one has q crop which is profitable and
which Is brought to the marketing
point at small expense. 1t would be
folly to advocate that anyone drop q
paying crop to take up something they
are doubtful about, but where there
are diversified interests on the farm
poultry can be made to pay more than
1t does.
The writer knows a man who has
one acre in a small town devoted to
poultry. He goes to nearby city and
buys live poultry Of wholesale commits
sion men at the market price, ships
them home. fattens them and markets
them dressed in the towns near him.
Nine-tenths OF the food consumed by
the fowls must be bought, and yet this
man makes a comfortable living out Of
the work. This is one case Of many,
and If this can be done it is certainly
reasonable to claim that the farmer,
who can raise the chickens from eggs
and also the food consumed by them.
can turn the result on to the market
at a profit.
The one cause of failure is not I'M
derstanding the needs Of the fowls and
how to feed them to advantage. Learn
this by experience, and poultry raising
will be found one Of the most profit
able ventures in which the farmer can

New Conditions for Farmers.

New Conditions for Farmers.
One day, late in the autumn, half
dozen farmers, coming fifteen miles,
drove into prairie village with heavy
loads Of corn. They went to the prin-
cipal elevators and asked the price.
Thirty cents q bushel to-day"
1--WE will go to the buyer at the 9TH
er end Of the town." said the spokes-
man.
TT will do you no good" was the
reply, ''as all the buyers pay the same
price here"
Every well; we will 60 home and
send our corn to market on foot"
They drove back fifteen miles and
unloaded the corn into their own gran
aries, to be shipped later in the form
Of fat cattle.
Such an incident would have been
impossible ten years ago, when the av-
erage farmer was compelled to take
what was offered for his crop. But
two things have worked a transfer
nation in the grain-growing portion Of
the West; the farmers have become
conservative with prosperity, and the
railroads have widened the markets.
Five years of good crops in the West
have not only paid the debts, but have
also made the farmer capable Of en-
ploying business methods. A few
years ago a settler visited town only
once a fortnight or once mouth. He
took home with him the county papers.
the few magazines that he received
and a large bundle Of groceries and
dry goods. With rural delivery and
rural telephone all that is passed.
Under these conditions the Wester IN
farmer has developed an independence
in the movement of crops discomfort
