What One Century Has Done.

The American Farmer makes a
remarkable comparison between the
present and the past.
In 1905 the world had not a single
steamship on the ocean, a single mile
of railway on land, a single span of
telegraph upon the continents or a
single foot of cable beneath the ocean.
In the blessed year of 1905 it has 49,
600 steam vessels, 10000 miles of
railway and more than 100000 miles
of land telegraph, while the very con-
tinents are bound together in ipstan-
taneOus communication by more than
100000 miles of ocean cables and the
number of telephone messages sent
aggregates 6,OOO,OOO,OOO annually, one
half of them being in the United
States. That great region called the
Corn belt was as yet unsettled and
practically unknown in 1905. A little
of Ohio less of Indiana and nothing of
Illinois was then known to the pop
ulatiOn which as yet was clinging
to the Atlantic coast afraid of the ter
rOrS supposed to lurk in the western
wilderness. But few white men had
crossed the Mississippi and all that
vast region stretching to the western
ocean was terra incOgnita. At
present it is filled with great and pop
ulOus states, enjoying wealth, luxu-
rieS and cOnveniences of all kinds
which were beyond the reach of kings
one hundred years ago. Every pros
porous farmer of the west sleeps in
bed which King George could not
have afforded in 1905 and when he
comes east to visit his relatives he
rides in palace car compared to

A Farmers Dinner at Home and

The following is an editorial from
the American Farmer:
A Western farmer, surrounded by a
happy family. sat down a few weeks
ago to the usual Sunday dinner.
There were at the table the father
and mother, two grown sons and two
daughters nearly grown. The princi-
pal meat consisted of Iarge-very
large plate of spring chicken fried
as it only can be fried or ever is fried
in the country. The day before. the
father had killed fat SOuthdown

string beans with bacon, egg plant,
tomatoes. lettuce cabbage, carrots and
onions. There were also three kinds
of pie and two of preserves. During
the meal the family discussed con-
templated trip to relatives in the east
and a few days afterwards found
themselves in New York, where they
prepared to spend some time viewing
the sights of the great metropolis.
When the noon hour arrived. the farm

Chickens can be hurried along more
rapidly by feeding them often.
When confined, chopped onions can
be fed to the fowls to good abvan-
tage.
The guinea is a great fOrager and
will destroy many insects that hens
will not touch.
Sour milk and buttermilk are eX-
ceIlent to mix with the soft food of
poultry.
Perfect cleanliness is an absolute
necessity if you expect to have
healthy fowls.
With poultry as with other prod
ucts, it is a good rule to market as
soon as ready.
If the hens are properly fed the
eggs are better than if they are al
lowed to eat all kinds of food.
Tobacco stems covered with straw
is an excellent preventive of insect
breeding, especially with sitting hens.
Only early chickens should be ca
pOnized, as they should be marketed
when year old and need plenty of
time to grow.
For Indigestion give the fowls
plenty of sharp gravel and also a
teaSpOOn1ul OF 1enuSfeek III Ine sou
food for every ten hens.
Geese can be fattened on any kind
of grain if fed all that they will eat,
commencing about ten days before
desiring to market.
If you desire to pack eggs for use
next winter remove the cocks from
the hens Unfertile eggs will keep
much better than fertile ones.
Poultry should have a certain pro-
portion of salt in their food as well
