For green feed in winter, If eggs arc
desired, clover will be found excellent.
One very good way to secure the win
ter feed is to cut the clover in the fall,
as the crop is best, and with little
drying put 1t in the stack. 1t will
fume and smoke, but will cure out and
be like an old cheese in the winter
when it is to be used. The clover can
now be cut with cutter into half inch
lengths and scalded. After the scald-
Ing process it should be covered and
allowed to cool, then fed, when it will
be found splendid as an egg producer,
rs 1t contains both lime and phos-
phorus and assists in the results de-
sired. If small flock is to be fed
the clover can beSput up in n hogshead
or cask of sufficient size and in this
kind Of a silo will keep well. How
ever, to try the experiment 1t will be
necessary only to go to the haystack
or barn loft and get some clover hay

same direction in regard to scaading

RAISING YOUNG PoUTrs.
Now to Feed and Care For DaAy
Turkeys.

now to Feed and Care For DaNy
The feeding Of young turkeys and
their care are Of much Importance. I
win give my methods:
In the frst place take them from
the nest as soon as Matched, a. there Is
danger Of Their being trampled to
death by the mother hen. I either
wrap them l.. iannel and put them by
the kitchen E. or heat q brooder till 1t
b from So TO 100 degrees under the
hover and tuck them away to dry ut
their leisure. The main thing is to fur
nish sufficient heat without drafts for
the wee babies making their first essay
into Il new and uniried existence, I
leave the last one OF two under the
len, SO she VI. accept the whole brood
later on WhCn all are thoroughly
dried they may be given to the mother,
Some sort of pen or coop should be
provided, roomy enough for the mother
and poults to be confined in rainy
weather A triangular run Of boards
twelve inches high should be placed
in front where the poults can run on
sunny days. The mother will not leave
them, and when they can fly over this
Enclosure they are strong enough 10 60
about with the hen. The coop should
be shut at night to keep out providers,
and also to keep the little turkeys from
going into the wet grass in the morn
Ing. The pen should be moved to n
fresh place quite often to insure clean
illness. Another method is to build a
rail pen, with boards around the sides
to keep the slippery little fellows in.
Boards, overlapping to shed rain, cover
the top. The trouble with this ar
rangement is the amount Of work in
volved in tearing it down and building
1t up In another spot often enough to
Insure the health of the poults. A large
store box may be utilized for the coop
In the method first spoken of, and It
can easily be changed from place to
place as necessity arises.
To this coop or pen the mother tur-
key may be taught to bring her brood
at night. This is easily done by al
ways feeding them when they come up.
They should be shut in, SO that they
can be kept housed until the grass is
dry, and when it rains keep them in
the entire day. This care should be
continued until they are six weeks old.

BrOoder Raised TURKEYS,

There is no more trouble in Matching
turkey eggs in incubators than other
eggs, but up to this time little success
has come from rearing them in brood
ers. Neither pheasant nor turkey
chicks seem to do as well in broodera
as with hens. We hear of some doing
well with turkeys in breeders, but we
have not up to this time met with any
one who felt warranted in continuing
the brooder method for poults.
The young turkeys probably do as
well in breeders as young chicks up to
a certain age, but after ten days or two
weeks they will feel the demand for
more natural conditions. Most Of those
that we have known to try the poults
brooder with young chicks. Young
chicks and young turkeys never do well
together. With hens, if in the same
brood with the same mother, they fare
badly. When running together with
separate mothers they do not do so
we'll as when kept well apart. If
young turkeys alone were put into
breeders they might do better than we
think they would, but I should not ad-
wise risking too many, and as soon as
the turkeys in the brooder are large
enough to run about get them on the
ground part Of each day.
Young turkeys do better the nearer
to their natural state they are raised
Coddling and too much care of an un-
natural kind count against them. They
must be kept clean, dry, comfortable,
and allowed as much liberty as the
Of age they should have almost abso
lutte freedom.-Cor. Country GentA,
