Unknown Poultry Diseases.

l used to think that all poultry
diseases were known to our scientists
and that all one had to do was to go
to a center of information, as to
medical college, veterinary college,
4 doctor or a veterinarian, to be in
stantly told what certain disease
might be. But after having tried few
times to find out things did not know,
l am convinced that there are among
our poultry at least numerous diseases
that no one knows about-so far as
being able to name and accurately de-
scribe is concerned. | recently saw
paragraph in a paper to the effect
that the poultry of England is so bad
iy affected with tuberculosis that
commission has been appointed to in
vestisate. Now, 1t may be that tuber-
culosis does exist largely in the fowls
of England, but IT is more likely that
1t exists to limited degree and that
many of the unknown diseases are
counted tuberculosis, just as is the
case with hog cholera.
l frequently hear of mysterious
diseases existing in the flocks of my
neighbors. A few years ago they used
to say that cholera had broken out in
their flock. That was the easiest way
to explain something that was not
easily accounted for. Generally the
causes lying at the foundation of the
trouble were bad feeding and exposure.
In the future we shall know more
about poultry diseases, but it will be
after the men with the microscopes
have made study of a; poultry dis
eases and have located and named
the germs that cause the contagious
and infectious ones.
Some of the unknown diseases are
simply troubles arising from the in
reference with the respiration of the
fowls or with the perspiration. The
latter is certainly the cause of many
evils. If we will build our poultry
houses on dry situations and keep
them dry and clean, with no drafts
permitted in the sleeping places of the
fowls, we will have less trouble with

whitebait Are Really Baby Fish.

Whitebait named rogenia alba by
Vaienciennes. the French naturalist.

the herring family. was regarded by
later authorities as merely the fry of
the herring. 1t seems now. however.

other small fry. are taken and used
under the name whitehall
These delicate and silvery baby fish
are taken in great abundance in
spring and summer in the estuary OF
the Thames They are caught in bag
nets, which are sunk four or five feet
below the surface of the water. and
usually measure from an inch to three
inches in length. A sample of white
bait has been tested by development
in an aquarium, proving that they are
fry of several sorts of fish.

Helena glanced up quickly. perhaps
under the impression that the joke had
gone far enough. but there was some
thing in Kenton's face that caused
her eyes to drop timidly before his
own. while she blushed even more
prettily than she had done at the un-
expected shower of rice.
Van Dorm received telegram a day
or two later which ran something in
this wise:

Building a Milk House,

The milk house is the product of
the modern farm and especially of the
modern dairy farm. Fifty years ago
the man who built milk house was
looked upon as an aristocrat. 1t was
thought that he wished to initiate the
princes of Europe who have their own
dairies and their own milk houses. In
later years it has become recognized
that the milk house is a very great
help and that 1t costs little. We have
some milk houses which could not
haYe cost more than $50 and yet are
neat serviceable and even ornamental
in appearance. The. location of the
milk house should be away from the
barn and away from the house. that
the air may be pure around it. II
there is living spring on the farm
through which cool water flows all
the summer, 1t should be located near
the spring or should have the water
piped to It. The building of such a
house is the equivalent of adding a
room to the cellar of the house, for it
takes out of the cellar all the milk
and leaves that place for other uses.
There is no reason why the milk house
cannot be kept perfectly clean all the
time. This does away with the great
objection to farm butter, which objec-
tipn is that it has the favors of all
the vegetables which have been stored
in the cellar.-John Stinson, Bureau

Why Not sign "Y'rs?,

In these days. when economy of
time and space are of the highest i'm
portance, it seems to. me that some
of the conventionalities of correspond
ence might well be abolished.
Why should we write Dear sir. ''
and then make pause and begin
a fresh line? Why could not all we
have to say flow straight on in the
same line from Dear sir?"
Again. why should we take three
lincs-and this, perhaps. is more I'M
portant-over the conclusion of our
letters? 1t strikes me that it would
be infinitely simpler and more con-
venient if you concluded a letter thus ::
Il am, dear sir. your obedient serv.
ant. Ed'ard Cuttle," all in one line.
Can anyone tell me the reason of this
custom and when it was originated?

Fertilizinq for Orchards.

In the main, orchards receive less
fertilizing than any other part of the
farm. The growers of fruit do not
seem to realize that the trees are con-
tinually using up potassium and phos-
phorous. These things must be kept
continually supplied to the orchard II
the best results are to be obtained.
The deficiency in these things is the
reason why wood ashes applied to the
orchards sometimes give such remark
able results. Potassium is very cheap
ly obtained and may be secured in the
form of muriate of potash, or in the
form of kainit. When wood ashes can
be obtained cheaply they should be
secured and used, but it is not well
to pay more than Sc per ton for
bleached hard wood ashes.
The PHOSPHORUS may be obtained
in ground bone or in ground rock phos-
phate. In most of our orchards nitro
gen is not lacking, but where it is it
may be supplied to the ground by the
use of ordinary manure.

dicted to the habit of sucking herself
and other animals In the herd. 1t is
not only the loss of the milk that is
sustained, but it would seem that one
such animal would induce others to

share of trouble with heifers sucking
themselves and others of the dairy
herd. The fact of our having trouble
in this respect has perhaps been for
the best since in endeavoring to cope
with 1t We have finally been enabled
to hit upon very practical means of
breaking the habit in every instance.
The method is SO simple and easy of
application as to put in the shade

what is better, 1t is entirely satisfac-
tory. Proceed this way, and you will
have fixed for good the most persist

sucking neifers nose an ordinary bull
ring. Just before inserting the ring.
slip on it two common iron harness
rings-of course, the harness rings
are to suspend loosely after the bull
ring has been inserted. This is the
trick of it. By adding more than one
loose ring, the animal can in no way
prevent them from dropping in the
mouth when it attempts to suck Brass
bull rings can be purchased in almost
any hardware store for twenty-five
cents each. and the common iron har-
ness rings cost but few cents per

Memento of Thomas CARLYLE.

A farmer in Monitoba wears on his
watch chain blackened metal disk
with an interesting history. Some
thirty years ago the farmer was a
ticket agent in railway station in
Dumfriesshire. One day Thomas Car
lyle took ticket for a short run by
rail and laid down a shilling. The
clerk, eager to obtain souvenir of the
famous countryman, secured the coin.
Ultimately, although sorely against
the grain, he was driven to part with
the treasured Carlyle shilling. But it
would not stand the ringing test.
Somebody had palmed on the sage OF

flesh of these geese is fine in texture
and has a rich flavor. This makes II
most acceptable for table purposes.
The geese are good layers compared
with most other geese. One thing that
strongly favors this breed is that the
birds are hardy. This is doubtless due
to the fact that they have not been
under the conditions of domestication
loag enough to have become non-re-
sistent to disease. Their old wild
habits enabled them to live under the
severest of conditions Those that
have them say they are very easy to

This law is described as being tha.

idea that there can be no gain without

what we call improvement is mercy
a change of the balance OF the QUAR-

that the term improvement" is rela-

Also, what would be improvement In

NATIVE NEW WORKERS SCARCE.
About Cne Out of Every Ten In the
City Population.

Now that thirty emergency census
takers finished the tail end of their
work a few days ago we may soon
have light on an interesting question
that this enumeration will throw some
light upon. Out of Gotham 4,ooo'ooo
souls how many are actual New York
ers-persons born in this city! Iak-
ing the last federal census as a crlter-
ion there is about one native born
New Yorker out of every ten in popu-
lation. Still. even this small pain 10
knickerbocker families-390, ,O0o-per-
sons-has to be greatly reduced, for in
1t is included every person oil whom
no actual knowledge could be obtained
of whom the haste of the census
tempted to throw under this general
heading. Amateur statisticians have
decided that there are about l2O,oOO
citizens of New York who have been
born of parents natives of this coun-
| try. These delivers in the census re-
suits are of the opinion that if the
qualification were that both their par
ents were natives of this country not
more than 5000 persons could qualify
as New Yorkers of the second Ameri-
can generation. Children of parents
who We're born abroad numbered l.
$4,000 in the last federal census.
There were then more than 100000
Americans here who were born in 9th
er states, New York state leading with
contribution of l25.O00 and New Jer-
sey following with $4,000; $4,000 were
born in Pennsylvania, $4,000 in Mass
achusetts, while COCOA compara-
lively large number-were born in
Virginia Therefore the descendants
of the Knicierbockers are wofully out
numbered in population if not in
