Clean the Poultry uou.e

The clean house is the home Of
healthy fowls, and If n is intending
to hatch eggs the coming spring the
house and the hens should be absolutely
free from vermin. Get at the house
now, fumigating it, disinfecting it and
cleaning it in every way possible. Take
out all roosts, nest boxes and every
thing which will prevent one from Civ
ing the house a thorough cleansing.
Then burn some SULPHUR in the house
after closing the windows Then white
wash it thoroughly. Then use insect
powder in all cracks and creyices.
Wash down the roosts with kerosene
oil, whitewash them and sprinkle in
sect powder over them. After you think
everything is clean then use a libera.
sprinkling of carbolic acid, we'll diluted.
Then you may be reasonably sure that
the broody hens nay be set so that they
will be comfortable and the chicks free
of lice.

1t Held woman Will He Drank ?
Whole Pail of Milk.

1t Held Woman While He Drank ?
Whole Pail of Milk.
Miss Mary Czerney, daughter of
prominent residents of Bon Homme
County, had a thrilling adventure with
q monster snake as the result OF
which she narrowly escaped death by
blood poison. by stepping on a rusty
nail while trying to escape from the
snake, says the st. Paul Dispatch.
The young woman, with a pail in
her hand, went to her favorite Jersey
for the purpose of doing her evening
milking. During the day the animal
had been picking in a tame grass plot,
and at the time of milking still bore
the picket line. The Jersey appeared
to be greatly annoyed by flies and
mosquitoes and changed it's position a
number Of times.
AS the COW changed position Miss
Czerney would follow it up, and dur
ing this operation her ankle became
entangled as she supposed in the
picket rope. The COW seemed to grow
q%uieter, and after milking steadily for
several minutes Miss Czerney became
concerned at the small amount of milk
in the pail.
Fearing that the pail had sprung a
leak, she looked full into it and at
tempted to raise it, when she was hor-
rifed by the. discovery that a monster
snake had its head in the pail, the
weight Of the reptile making it diff
cult to raise the pail from the ground.
The snake evidently had been drink
ing the milk about as fast as it poured
into the pail.
Greatly frightened by the discov-
cry, Miss Czerney gave a scream,
sprang to her feet and made a dash
for her home. But she had taken only
q few steps when she made the fur
Their discovery that instead Of her an
kle being entangled in the picket rope,
it was the snake which was entwined
around her ankle. The reptile was
coiled so tightly and was of such
weight that the young woman was
thrown violently to the ground.
Finally gaining her freedom from
the monster, which she vas able to
shake off only after superhuman eff
forts, she continued her flight toward
home.
In her haste she stepped on a rusty
nail which penetrated the flesh to the
depth of about two inches. Blood poi
son set in and only by the hardest
kind of work was the life of the young
woman saved.

thoroughly healed before the hles come.
Animals dehorned In early spring anu
cared for, usually shrink but little ahu
the wounds very soon heal over. 1T Is
not necessary to put anything on Inc
wounds. "'
Starting n Flower Garden.
Spring Is the time when the average
amateur flower gardener makes MS
worst mistakes. Too often he DuyS
seed which he does not handle proper
". with the results that bare spots IN
the garden show where he expected
beautiful blossoms. The young plants
that he expected to flower are killed by
the hot sun or choked under heavy or
dry soil.
The amateur who would rival the
professional florist in the radiance OF
his garden, should make Il start no"
by sowing the seed of many kinds OF
snowy ANIMALS in boxes or pots, to De
kept indoors for awhile. The boxes
should have holes for drainage in the
bottom, but should not be so open as
to keep the soil dry. Ordinary garden
soil may be used in the bottom, but at
the top there should be a lighter soil,
we'll mixed. The small seed should be
sown on the surface; then fine soil
spread Over them and pressed down,
out not so hard as to cause the soil to
bake. Coarse seed can best be planted
in little drills, OF each seed pressed
down into the soil, and the whole COW
cred with 4 thin layer Of earth, as
with the small seed. The soil should
be gently sprinkled with water imme-
diately after the planting. Only the
quantity of water which the soil can
absorb without becoming sosgy should
be given. The box should be watered
subsequently whenever the soil becomes
dry a little below the surface.
1t is a good practice to SOW the seed
in rows, as this enables the soil to be
stirred to prevent it from baking. The
box should be set by the window and
given plenty Of light, but at the same
time shielded from the hot sun. When
the plants have grown to a fair size, 1T
will be warm enough outdoors to set
them out in the garden. Only the
stronger plants should be chosen for
%replanting. Agortums, sweet alyssum,
shapdragons, h%eliotropes, lobelias, mas
turtiums and v%erbenas can be treated
successfully this way.

Good Rntions for Cows.

The following ration and it's varia-
lions or substitutes have been found
profitable, yet not expensive: The first
n is perhaps more nearly a balanced
ration than the other. It consists of
twenty pounds Of clover hay, eight
pounds Of corn and cob meal and two
pounds Of %cottonseed meal. The other
is composed Of ten pounds Of alfalfa or
Of cowpea hay, ter pounds Of corn
stover, eight pounds Of corn and two
pounds Of bran. In sections where
neither clover, alfalfa or cowpea hay
is obtainable, and q mixed Of timothy
hay or corn fodder Is used, the bal
ance may be maintained by increasing
the quantity Of the concentrated foods,
whether bran, oats, gluten meal or cot
tonseed meal. 1t is an excellent plan
to experiment with the different RAJ
lions until one Is obtained which gives
the desired results.

AI...Ie scr Horses.

Horses sometimes act disagreeable
when working in the orchard or. when
.cultivating corn or grain by trying to
get a mouthful of the growing crop.
The best way to overcome such a habit
is to muzzle the horse, but in doing
this extreme care should be used that
the horse is not injured nor seriously
disconnected by the muzzle. Take
heavy white canvas, such as grain bags
are made from. Cut this In eighteen
inch lengths and wide enough to &c
around the jaws Of the horse comfor
tably loose. Cut two oval airholes
three by four inches, braid the edges

Hauling Manure to Field.

While 1t is admittedly the better plan
to get the anu to the fields as soon
after it is made as possible, the plan
has its greatest value when the manure
is spread as soon as placed on the soil
that is, do not put it in heaps to
spread at some later period, but, if pos
sible, load it from the stable directly
into a spreader, SO that as soon as it
reaches the field IT can be put on the
soil, where Z will leach in during the
winter. The idea of carting the manure
direct to the field is to have 1t i'm
proving the soil instead of letting a
portion Of its virtue go into the air, as
is the case when it lays in the barnyard
all winter.
