Crop-BOund Fowls.

Every farmer is familiar with what
Is called 'crop-bound" in fowls The
crop becomes packed with food that
has ceased to pass into the gizzard
of the bird. If the contents of the
crop consist of grain only, the fowl
should be kept from food for some
days. In addition, the crop should be
manipulated with the hands. This will
tend to loosen the grain and start It's
passage into the gizzard.
Sometimes the condition is caused by
feeding cut hay, dried alfalfa or clover,
which have packed at the point where
the food should pass out of the crop
One poultry raiser in cases Of this kind
pours sweet oil down the throat Of the
bird, and this loosens up the mass. In
bad cases he opens the crop by cut
ting and removes the collected food,
afterward sewing up the crop. He says
that this does appear to cause the bird
much pain. After this is done the bird
should be fed only milk or other light
food for some days.

Much is being said just now about la
Dor on the farm. The farmers complain
that labor is both scarce and inefficient,
while the farm hands grumble about
poor pay and long hours. AS to the
matter of wages, | believe the hired
man is right; while the farmer is often
correct as to the poor quality of the
help to be had. The reason for this is
not far to seek. Other occupations have
offered greater inducements to the man
without capital, and the best men have
left the farm and gone to them. There
is, it must be confessed, little induce
ment for a strong, willing, energtic
or $15 per month and board. He can
usually do better elsewhere, and else
where he goes. This is true Of all
grades of service; and not until the
farm can offer the man Of muscle and
the man of brain as much for their
services as they can get elsewhere can
the farm hold them. Higher wages for
farm hands are, to my mind, inevita-
BILE; and this means that many farmers
will have to learn how to better handle
their men. What is needed is not cheap
labor, and lots Of it, but good labor and
skillful management for 1t. While this
IS true of the labor problem as a whole,
it is equally true that the main ques-
ton is that Of individuality A farmer
who treats his hired man as he would
wish to be treated if he were the wage
Garner can usually get men, and the
laborer who looks after his employers
interests as his own can always find
employment. You can no more leave
out the individuality in considering the
servant question" What is in great
est demand is mutual confidence and a
mutual desire to do the best that can
be done. difference in wages of a
dollar or two a month is a small thing
to the difference between a good man
and poor one, Or between a good
place and a bad one.-E. E. Miller, in
Agricultural Epitomist.

No stills are used and the upright
studs take the place of posts. Two for
each post are set on the foundation on
each side. Between these the cross
plank is placed and spiked so that it
will extend the width of the barn and
tie the two sides together The scant-
lings on each side of the barn floor,
forming center posts, are then raised
and spiked in place Upon the outside
of each upright is spiked a plank Of
the same size as and parallel with the
first cross plank. This gives three 2xS
inches for cross stills through the cen
ter of the barn, each joint or bard be-
ing fixed in this way. End joints, using
boards instead Of plank on outside, give
the bedwork of the barn. At the sides.
between uprights in place Of sill, a
plank is firmly spiked; this holds the
uprights firmly in place and prevents
working sideways while the thorough
ly spiked cross planks prevent all move
ment in other directions. Throughout

One of these strange impresarios
named Jocolino lately took up his resi-
dence in 4 lodging house in the Rue St
Charles. Unfortunately Jocolino's pu-
pills multiplied with far more rapidity
than he could train them to be we'll be-
haved. with the result that their active
disposition led them to explore the adj
joining rooms of the lodging house, where
they performed on their own account.
Their visits were not TO the liking Of
the neighbOrS, and JOcolino was obliged
to listen to some very forcibie remon-
stranceS on the subject. The nuisance.
however, did not abate. and finally one
of the tenants, plumber named Sauvin.
decided to take the matter into his own
hands. Armed with large quantity of
insect powder, the irate plumber entered
JocOlinO's room in the absence of the pro-
fessOr and sprinkled the eXtermiuator in
all directions.
While he was so engaged, however.
the flea trainer returned, and mistaking
the plumber for n burglar seized a revol-
YER and shot his in the head. Sauyin
is now lying in hospital and the train

Spiced CrabappIes.

Prepare the apples as for preserves
Make a syrup of one pint of vinegar
to three and half pints of sugar
Pour over the fruit and let stand over
night. Boil the fruit, little at a time,
in the syrup till tender. Pack the fruit
in jars. Add mixed spices to the vine
gar to suit the taste, boil down to
enough to just cover the fruit, pour
over it and seal. Crabapples can be
carefully gathered and stored away
till the throng of other fruits is over.
In fact, the above recipes are those
used with wild crabapples, which were
formerly buried in the ground to ripen;
but these formulas can be used sue
cessfully with the cultivated varieties.

! POTTED MEAT NOT PRESERVED
Manu- fncturc-s' Association and SAN
itary Inspector So Report.

Manu- fncfurc-s' AssocfatfOn and SAN
itary Inspector So Report.
The following extracts from reports
of the National Manufacturers Asso-
citation and Inspector Hedrick, Sanitary
Inspector Of the City of Chicago, refute
the sensational charges made against
the canned meat packers:
Our investigation of the Canned and
Potted Meat part of the packing industry
showed that the methods used make the
use of preservatives unnecessary, and in
dictated that no preServatives or artificial
coloring is now used by the Canned Meat
packer
The meat is first partially cooked in
large kettles, then the fat and bone is
trimmed off and the meat packed into
tins. The air is then withdrawn with
vacuum pumps and the cans sealed in
vacuum. Next they are put into large
cookers, where the cooking process is fin
ished. In the packing of some products
it is necessary that the cans be reopened
and the steam allowed to escape, the vent
hole being Immediately reSealed while the
goods are hot, so as to retain the vacuum.
The entire process is quite similar to
that used by the family cook when putting
up fruits and vegetables, except that
meats are sealed in tin cans instead of
being put in glass jars. We found that
the solder in making the cans and in
sealing them is all placed on the outside
of the can and does not come in contact
with the contents.
We were informed that much of the
cause for complaint in canned meats was
because of the mistaken idea that the
goods would keep in perfect condition af
ter they had been opened. This would
be the fact if they were preserved with
chemicals, but as they are only kept il
condition because of being sealed in vac
utm tins they spoil just as readily as
fresh meats do after they have been
opened and exposed to the air, but will
keep Indefinitely if the can is not pune
tured. 1t is also a wel-known scien-
tific fact that decaying meat generates
gas which will explode any package
which is Theoretically sealed.
Sanitary Inspector Hedrick submitted
to Commissioner Whalen his analysis of
conditions in the Libby, Mcneil & Libby
plant. He found with reference to gem
eral conditions, that the floors. halls.
stairs, tables, ETC., are kept clean" and
that the entire department-viewed from
our standpoint-was in a satisfactory con-
dition. All workrooms are light, and have
good ventilation"

Short suggestions.

Always wash the dischloth thorough
" and hang in the sunshine to dry
after each using.
If the Juice of a fruit pie runs out
try putting a small funnel Of white
paper in the center of the upper crust.
To clean bottles or glass Jars, cut a
small potato into dice and shake in the
bottle or jar half-flled with cold water.
If eggs that are to be boiled hard
are put into rapidly boiling water the
yolks will not become dark on the out
side.
When roasting meat to make the
gravy nice and brown take a table
spoonful of sugar and melt in a pan
till it smokes, then add boiling water,
stir well and mix with the gravy.
To grease a griddle cut small white
turnip in half and rub the griddle with
1t. 1t causes no smoke, smell, taste or
adhesion and will be found better than
butter or grease.

The Farm Garden.

No farmer can afford to do without
a good garden. 1t is not to be expected
that every one will be a fancy gar
dener, but every one should give suffi-
cient attention to the subject so as to
produce all staple vegetables earlier
than can be produced in the field. 1t
is not only essential to the health and
proper enjoyment Of the family, but
it is actually a matter of profit. Could
your whole farm be made as smooth,
dry, rich and as well cultivated as a
good garden, the increased product
would pay a large per cent Of profit
upon the outlay. In the garden, or In
a separate compartment, may be cult
waited Strawberries, raspberries, black
berries, currants, grapes and dwarf
pears. They can all be had at very
small cost of money or labor, and will
add immensely to the enjoyment Of
the household.

Feeding Meat to Poultry.

That fowls and especially laying pull
lets and hens require a certain amount
of animal food is admitted by every
one who understands poultry, but it
is an extremely nice point to know
just how to feed them and not overdo
it. There is much danger in feeding
meat for, to be valuable and do the
fowls no harm, it should be perfectly
fresh and fed in small quantities. The
local butcher is tempted to work off his
putrid meat on the customers who want
it for feeding fowls and such meat will
mean trouble for the birds, bowel trou-
