While most OF the work on the fnrIn
just at rhis time is at d slandstill.
there is plenty of time to clean out the
poultry houses aud get them in the
proper condition before the early pul.
lets begin to lay in the spring. for lice
win soon put in an appearance, and by
tue time the farmer is aware Of the
fact he will have his poultry house
well stocked With large army of the
dcPredatorS, ready to- operate on the
hens. The way to prevent lice is TO
light Them early. Never let them get
possession. Get a hand spraycr and
spray the house once week. and do
not miss n single square inch, giving
the fences Il spraying also. Use the
Kerosene emulsion. which Is cheap. 70
make it. get half pound Of hard soap.
shave it and dissolve It in half gallon
OF boiling water. and while boiling re
move it from the 1re. adding quart
or three pints of kerosene. With a
sprayer, churn it for ten minutes, until
It forms a cream, and the materials
intimately mixed Then add six or
ten gallons Of water and spray it as Il
ilne spray. This is one of the cheapest
aud best lice destroycrs that can be
used.

In addition TO this there are the most
charming buttons OF coral, with silver

E.ar!Y Civilization.

The Importance of early cultivation
of such crops as corn. potatoes and
some others. Is another thing that
should be investigated by farmers. Tho
hest corn growers I have ever known

STRINGS of the soil to produce the
fine tilth which will not only enable
the rootlets to penetrate the soil and
take up the plant food, but will also
open the soil to the action of both
moisture and air and leave in IL the
elements of fertility in the best posi-
bic condition to be appropriated by the
plants. A wise old farmer of my ac-
