POULTRY FEEDING.
An Important Phase Of the Chicken
Growing Industry.

Poultry feeding is sometimes most
serious problem to those who desire to
make this line specially. Expert
ence has shown that there are certain
special lines Of agricultural operations
with which poultry raising may ad-
vantageOusly be connected. In dairy
ing there is usually large quantity
of skim milk or butter-milk which
may be utilized to furnish consider
able part Of the poultry ration. Upon
the fruit farm fowls are also Of ad-
vantage They keep down insect pests
and they may have free range a
greater part of the season without the
possibility of doing any damage. Plum
growers have found poultry especially
useful in obliterating the curculio, and
even the apple crop has been consid-
erably benefited. II 1t IL found that

We all know that there is big money
IN poultrv. How much there is in 1t for
us, depends entirely upon ourselves ana
whether or not we are keeping up WIN
the procession in raising the KIND OF
chickens which bring the most cash
and in getting them into the market at
a time when the demand is greatest.
The value of poultry production for the
United States this season was but
shade under that of wheat or cotton,
amounting to over half, billion dol
lars Since the perfection of the in
cubator, the Importance of the indus
try has been greatly augmented. By
the use of this splendid device it is now
comparatively e-sy to bring in large
quantities of chickens for the winter
and early spring market when p 'ces
are very attractive. Hens can be
urged but they can not be made to set

ORIENTAL LNCUBATORS.
Peculiar Facility Of Chinese for Arti-
fetal .iatching.

If we are to look the beginning
of any particular industry, we are
usually told that we might find that
this particular work was first carried
on in China. This applies as well to
the artificial Matching of eggs.
Throughout China the Matching Of eggs
by heat is very large and important
industry and has been practiced since
very ancient times. The Oriental who
desires to hatch eggs by artificial heat
1rst constructs building Of sun
dried brick, plastered on the outside
with mud. Completely fill one
side and the other also, except for
door space and sufficient room for a
man to test the eggs, are round, bar
rel-like mud brick wallis with earthen
Jars set into them. This jar is very
deep. and comes within six or eight
inches of the ground. The conical bot
tom is filled With ashes to the depth
Of eight or nine inches, to keep the
temperature more uniform and to
when doors are opened and there is n
strong wind On tho top Of the ashes
ia thrown n bit of old mat or similar
material TO keen the bas'nts OF e""s

when they are taken ont. For hold

leaves space of about nm inch be

necessary is proper regard to the tenn
perature, and to the brooding Of the
young chicks during the tender period
Of their existence. The incubator has
interested thousands of women and
children in the work of chicken raising,
and 1t Is not to be said that the returns
are less profitable than plowing or
other heavy manual labor.
Cheap Machines the Most Expensive.
There are many excellent incubators
upon the market, but there are also
many cheap. imperfect machines, the
purchasers of which, failing to secure
good results, become disgusted and in

be obtained without cost from Sena-
tors and Members of Congress. or the
Secretary of Agriculture. and the proof
of its popularity is apparent in the
seven or eight editions which it has
been Necessary to publish to supply the
demand throughout the country.
Capenizing Fowls.
One of the most attractive features
Of poultry raising is the production OF
capons. This is a story all by itself.
1t is an experiment which one can en-
ter into and with very slight expend-
iture for set of instruments, can fol-
low it to any degree desired. 1t re-
Quires some judgment and little at
tention, but caponizing Is not difficult:
1t is one of those things which, while
it looks, in the beginning, to be a hard
gradually comes to you all
of itself, so that the first thing you
know you become almost an expert,
and the reward is very considerable.
Capons always sell readily and at a
good advance in price. The birds be-
come very docile and easily handled
and are always money makers. The
readiness wit which the new capon
