THE NEGRO As A FARMER.
Booker Washington Says He is at
His Worst In Large Cities

Booker T. Washington in an address
at Washington, d. c., recently struck
a keynote when he stated that, "The
negro is at his worst in the crowded
life. of a large city, and at his best in
the rural districts where he owns and
cultivates the soil.
The speaker said the demand in the
South for negroes trained for teachers
and leaders in the class room, and the
factory was tremendous; but more
pressing yet was the demand from the
best white people of that section for
negroes to take charge of their farms,
diaries and other industries. This de-
mand is shown, he said, by the fact
that every one of the 525 students who
left Tuskegee last summer had been en-
gagged weeks before the end of the term.
Washington is solicited by mail, tele-
graph, and in person to furnish
trained negroes, and could have found
places for twice the number had they
been forthcoming.
Association with the white people
has given the negro new wants, de-
sires and ambitions" said Mr. Wash
ington; ITO these, education is neces-
sary, both to appreciate fully the newly
awakened feelings and TO provide
means for their rational satisfaction.
Hence, from the most selfish point of
view, the right kind of education is
beneficial for the negro"
That the negro is not naturally an
idler is shown, the speaker said, by the
| trebling of the Souths Industrial
wealth in the last twenty years. with
ont INV anprpciablp incrpaSp i'm immi i.
grafton. This advance is due, he
thought, in great part to the well
directed labor of the negro.

fowls which will produce carcaSeS and
eggs of a much more uniform shape,
color, and size than will mongrels, all
of which aids in finding a ready sale.
If one already has a flock of mongrel
fowls and cannot afford to buy pure
breeds, he should choose a purebreed
male bird of the breed preferred and
mate him with a few of the best mon
grel females. This system, if carefully
followed for a few years, will give a
high-grade flock that will be practically
as good as purebreds, so far as market
conditions for dressed fowls and eggs
are concerned.
Choice of variety will depend largely
on the purpose for which the fowls are
kept-whether eggs alone, botheggs and
meat, or meat alone is the chief object;
whether white-shelled or brown shelled
eggs are desired; and whether sitters
or nonsitters are wanted.
Egg Observation-Disclosures and produc'
ers of white-shelled eggs-Leghorns
and Minorcas.
General purpose breedS.-Sitters and
producers of brown-shelled eggs-Ply'
mouth Rocks, Wyandottes, Orphing
tons, and Rhode Island Reds.
Neat Breeds Sitters and producers
of brown-shelled eggs-Light Brahmas,
Cochins, and Langshans.
What Kind of Houses.
LOcdtiOn.-Select an elevation hav.
ing a natural drainage away from the
building, a dry, porous soil, such as a
sandy or gravelly loan, being prefer
able to a clay soil.
ErpOSure.-As sunlight and warmth
are essential to the best success with
poultry, the buildings should face the
south. A southeastern exposure is pref
cradle to a southwestern one if a
direct southern exposure cannot be OBJ
tanned.
size Of HouSe.-The size of the house
will depend almost entirely on the
number of birds to be kept. If in flocks
of forty to sixty, about square feet
of -four space should be allotted to
each hen. The building should be high
enough for the attendant to avoid
humping his head against the ceiling.
AHouse for Fifty to Sixty Fowls.
The best house for fifty to sixty fowls
is 90 by II feet; front elevation 61s
feet, back elevation So feet with
double pitch roof of unequal span. The
roof if shingled, should have not less
than one-third pitch. If roofing paper is
used, one-quarter pitch will answer. In
the front, or south wall there should be
placed two windows about l foot from
the top and feet from the ends; 8 by
10 inches is a good-sized pane to use
in twelve-light sash, making the sash
about by inches high, and 2 feet
inches wide. A door 215 by feet may
be made in one of the end walls, and
also a small door in the front wall, for

male parents also came of a good lay
ing strain.

Ducks don't need water to thrive.
There are many farms in this country,
where thousands of these fowl are
raised each year for market, and where
there is not even puddle for them to
founder in. One of these establish
ments is said to furnish 10000 ducks
year.

Another mash may be mixed as fol-

100 pounds corn meal
100 pounds ground oats.

Young chickens should be fed little
at time and often. If they are given
ground food alone, there is great
danger of overlooking. Very good re-
suits may be obtained by the feeding
entirely of cracked grains from the
time the chickens are Matched until
they reach maturity. There are on the
market many prepared chick feeds, con-
sisting of different mixtures of suitable
cracked grains. After the chickens are
five or six weeks old, the prepared chick
feed may be dropped and cracked corn,
cracked wheat, hulled oats, ETC., fed to
them instead.
If the chickens can not get grass,
provide green feed such as lettuce and

house opposite the door or under the
roost platform, and should be darkened.
1t is well to have several small boxes
for shell, grit, beef scraps, ETC., against
the walls about 16 to Is inches above
the floor. If cement or wood floors are
used, dust bath should be provided
for the fowls.
The Feeding of Hens.
In order to obtain eggs, it is neces-
sary to have healthy, vigorous stock,
properly fed To do their best, hens
should be fed grain, animal, and green
food They should be fed enough to
keep them in good condition but not
overfat, and should be induced to take

Not The Laying Kind.

A few days ago rather bashful
young woman went into a Southern
grocery store with some chickens to
sell. She inquired the price of fowls,
and at the same time put hers on the
counter. The clerk didn't notice that
the chickens feet were tied, and asked
her if they would lay there. She bit
her handkerchief, turned her head, and
said, mo, sir, they are ROSTERS"

cabbage which are very good for this
purpose. Some kind of meat, such as
green cut bone or meat scraps, is valu-
able as food and IL is well to keep in
box where the chickens can help
themselves at all times. Water should
be provided from the start, placed in
such dish that the chickens can not
get into it and get wet.
