REARING THE CHICKS.
Importance OF Cleanliness In the
Poultry Yards.

Poultry Yards.
Perfect cleanliness is of the highest
Importance In the poultry yards and
houses during the entire year, but is
especially necessary in the sutry sum
mer months, when every detail should
be carefully attended TO which may be
Of any possible benefit to the growth
and development OF the young stock.
Fowls which have the very best Of food
and care In other respects will not
thrive when confined in unclean and
III ventilated houses and pens, writes
w. ii. Works In American Poultry
Journal. Cleanliness is highly neces-
sary in the rearing OF young chicks, no
matter whether they are intended for
exhibition stock, for breeders or for
the market.
BY cleanliness is not meant the use
of a large quantity Of dislnfectants
which may give the appearance OF
cleanliness, although these are undoubt-
edly good to use in connection with the
care Of the poultry quarters. Cleanl-
ness Is Of such great account in the
summer that in many cases It may
mean the saving Of the life Of a chick
as well as the health and growth, for
cleanliness Is the foe of vermin, and
vermin Is the cause Of majority Of
the poultry losses and diseases.
The houses for the young stock should
be dry and well ventilated, and the
chicks should be kept from crowdlng
and taught to go on the roosts as soon
as possible, so that there will be no
danger Of deformed breastbones caused
by overcrowding. The brood coops and
breeders should receive much of the
poultryman's attention during the hot
season, and the little chicks should
have clean, dry straw on the floors OF
their coops and also plenty of fresh air
and shade
Lime is one of the best things to use
in the houses, either in the form of
whltewash or sprlnkled about the floor
AZ a powder. Carbolic acid Is also
good dislnfectant and kerosene should
be used In the fight against lice and
mites. The chicks need to be busted
with insect powder and their busting
places sprinkled with It. The yards
should be dug up often and disinfected
with lime nd carbolic acid, so that
the ground will not become old and
full OF disease germs.

GRADUATED Meat Pbr Poultry.

For those who have neither time nor
opportunity to prepare meat In other
forms for their poultry the prepared
granuated stuff Is an excellent substi-
tute and is so cheap that It should new
err be left out Of the diet for growing
chickens and for winter layers, says A.
v Meersch In Western Poultry Jour
nal. 1t is made either from horsehesh
or from the ofral Of cattle and Is com
position OF flesh and bone boiled up
and dried and then pressed into blocks,
afterward being passed through a mill
to be broken up into convenient sizes.
1t is so prepared that 1t will keep fresh
and sweet for some considerable time.
and when chickens are fed entirely on
dry food II is convenient to give them
their meat in this form. The amount
to be given depends largely upon the
size Of the birds, but little every day
to each one will make great differ.

Lincoln's election to the Legislature
of Illinois in August. 1884. marks the
end Of the pioneer period of his life.
He was done now with the wild care
lessness Of the woods, with the rough
jollity Of Clary's Grove. with odd jobbs
for his daily bread-wlth all the de-
tails Of frontier poverty. He contin-
ued for years to be a very poor man,
harassed by debts he was constantly
laboring to pay, and sometimes abso-
lutely without money; but from this
time on he met and worked with men
Of wider knowledge and better trained
minds than those he had known in
Gentryville and New Salem; while
the simple social life of vandalla
where he went to attend the sessions
Of the legislature, was more elegant
than anything he had yet seen.-St

Washington, March 6.-The question
of the enlargement of the medical de-
partmenr of the army occupied the ma
jor portion of the time of the senate
today. The question arose in connec-
ton with the consideration of bill for
the displacement of contract surgeons by
physicians who shall be given the rank
Of army officers in the reorganization of
the medical corps. Hale criticized the
bill as an entering wedge for an in
crease of the army, and as part OF a
general plan of the general staff, which
he charged with purpose to increase
the army's Importance, In his remarks
the senator said the general staff was
disposed to encourage an invasion OF
China. Carter and tiallinger spoke in
somewhat the same vein of objection,
while the bill was defended by Warren,
Blackburn and other senators. The bill
was not disposed of.
