WORKING MEN NIGHT AND DAY
DRIVING PILlNG-WoRK WILL
PROBABLY COST OVER 5000.

A large force of men are engaged
on the Big Four embankment north
Of the Chicago Mill driving piling and
putting the levee in first-class condi-
ton. The piling being driven is
krown as sheet piling and is driven in
groove shape. making an almost i'm.
pregnable. barrier in event of high
water such as threatened the levee
last wear.
Two twelye-hour shifts OF ten men
each under Foremen +. Bagby and
Joseph Toots are working night and
dav and II will take all winter TO com
plete the work
The piling is being driven twenty
four feet deep aud for distance OF
zoo feet along the side of the track.
The depth to which the piling is be-
ing sunk will overcome the danger
heretofore existing on account OF
quicksand and will make the levee
secure from high water for years to
come. The cost Of the work Will
probably exceed 5000
The other improvement being
made by the Big Four consisting of
reducing its grades and laying eighty
pound steel rails. indicate that it will
be made one OF the best lines Of road
IN the state.

rOwls must have variety of food
to do well. No one grain will long be
relished by the fowls If made an ex-
elusive diet.
In breeding high-class fowls it Is
quality, not quantity, that counts. A
combination Of both is desirable, but
not always obtainable.
The early-laying pullet should be
marked and kept for the breeding pen
next season, provided sne is otherwise.
good bird. In nearly all cases the
pullet that begins to lay early in life
is the one that will lay the largest
number Of eggs in a year.
Every poultryman should own good
bone cutter. 1t will pay for itself in a
short time in increased egg production
and growth and general health of the
flock Fresh ground bone should be
fed twice a week at least, about an
ounce to a fowl at each feed.
Any man or woman of ordinary In
telligence, with the proper application
of industry and perseverance, can
make a success of the poultry business,
The man who says cant" simply ad-

Mammoth Bronze Turkeys.

The accompanying picture shows
perfect type of the male and female
bronze turkeys, the largest and perhaps
the most generally bred of all the thor
oughbred turkeys. The males often
attain a weight of forty-five or more
pounds, and the females thirty-eight.
They are the result of a cross of the
wild turkey, though they have become
thoroughly domesticated.
1t is sometimes said that they grow
too large, and are not desirable for
market, but while this would doubt
less be true of old fowls, it is not the
case with young ones. April and May
hatched bronze turkeys will be just the
right size to bring the best prices at
Christmas. and it is doubtful if any
