POULTRY NOTES.

pected from the cold storage egg!
Will II be cold blooded?
The law does not recognize poultry
as ''property"-if your neighbor kills
your chickens for trespassing you
have no recourse but TO grin and
bear H."
Charcoal and grit should be kept
where the fowls can have access TO
them at all times. They are pre-
ventive as well as cure for indiEes'
tion, and more fowls die each year
from this disease than most persons
think. You must keep your hens

productive fowls.
A good. dry cellar is the very best
place to set the incubator. especially
as the warm weather comes on, and
during the extreme and changeable
season. Such a cellar is easily and
cheaply built by ones own self from
concrete. composed OF gravel and
lime. The outside may be plastered
with cement. which gives the job
more finished appearance.
Allow the young chicks 10 get on
the ground as quickly as possible.
Confinement on board floors soon
brings on leg weakness and Il u
hard to overcome, once contracted
As the weather warns up and the
ground is well set in grass, the chicks
will enjoy themselves very much
chasing bugs and insects. This sort
OF exercise is very beneficial 10 them
and the animal food secured is hard

HINTS.

There is nothing better for bou-
quets than nasturtiums and sweet
peas.
Keep the ground about your sweet
peas well stirred and give them plen-
ty OF water.
On general principles. level culti-
vation is the thing. Especially is
this true in potato growing.
Use poultry netting for the sweet
peas to climb on. 1t is much better
than strings or wire.
Tomatoes do not require such a
very rich soil, but to do well they
need thorough cultivation.
Don't kill insects indiscriminately
Remember that there are insect
friends as well as insect enemies.
Remember that while clods may be
full OF plant food. it is not usually
available. Keep the cultivator NOV.

THE IMPORTANCE OF WATER.

The importance of water to the
growing plant can only be understood
when we apprehend and appreciate
how lFrge a part of its structure is
composed of water, and that even this
large percentage of its composition is
but a fraction of the total amount used
in its development. The quality of
water entering into the structure Of
plants varies from 60 to as high as 9s
per cent OF their total weight. Dur
ing the entire period of growth there
Is constant giving OF of moisture by
the foliage. and 1t must be made good
by that which is taken by the roots.
BY experiments conducted at the Wis
consin station, It has been found that
in raising oats, for every ton of dry
matter produced there were required
522.i tens of water; for every ton OF
dry Eiatter of flint corn there were
required 1888 tons of water; for dent
corn. 309.0s tons of water for every
ton OF dry matter. On plots at this
station is tons of dry matter OF oats
per acre represented an expenditure OF
940.32 tons of water. Potatoes used

HOG NOTES.

The pig should be liberalIy fed. but
not so that /: will not be ready for its
feed Gt the appointed time. Remem-
Der that the pig is developing bone
and muscle. Give him plenty of exer-
else.
Cleanliness is next to godliness.
This applies to the hog pen as well as
it docs to the parlor.
1t is poor policy TO keep small pigs
brood sows and porkers all in the
same pen and feed them on the same
kind OF food. Hogs kept for breeding
stock should not be fed as should
stock that is being fed for market.
A good way to get start in rais-
ing pure-bred hogs is TO buy SOW in
farrow. She will supply the farm with
breeding stock.
Don't keep those brood sows too fat.
The reason is well known to every
raiser OF pork.

NNfMeHARD<GARDFN
HAVE CLEAN RUNS.

II Is "A little strange that many
raisers of hogs seem to think that dirt
does lot affect the health OF the hog
by dirt We mean filth. We have vis-
tied faIms where the hog runs were
simply reeking with Shiny nth, and
the door from them such that every
warm wind blowing from them made
their vicinity uncomfortable, This has
become so much the custom that
creamCri ries and cheese factories insist
that nc hog runs shall be in their Vi
clnity. and even the shippers Of milk
Insist that no hog runs shall be In their
vicinity But We have seen hogs kept
otherwise We have seen them run
ming n clean fields and eating clean
food burrowing when they desired 10
In clean soil. In such conditions there
is no CGor. nothing Objectionable and
seldom any disease. We believe that
were EIl hogs kept In proper clcanli-
ness and mature animals used for
breeding. the terrible disease OF hog
cholera would soon be 80 reduced In
importance that We would suffer little
from l.: Besides. Il is without a ques-
tion that hogs so kept grow more rap

Among the most Hlthy places Is fire.
quently the staEnanf pond In which
the antmals are supposed 10 cool them
selves. and the water OF which they
drink. Who can doubt that this foul.
warm. stagnant water soon becomes
nlled with disease germs Of the most
malignant character II Is through
careicssness that most OF these ponds
exist. II the hogs are 10 be allowed
access &c water u should be a running
brook or pond that renews Itself con
sianuy II is not a wonder that hogs
having access 10 slough filled with
dirty water and Nth get sick. II Is
rather wonder that any OF them
should have such constitutions that
they are able to stand the ordeal
doubt many diseases other
than cholera are due to these water
disease traps.
The hog IS evidently one OF the
heartiest animals. We have found this
out. 9nr so have become careless in
our treatment OF them. The very fact
that he Is hardy has been against him.
for VIC have more than Offset 1t by the
poor conditions under which we make

WOOD ASHES FOR FERTILIZER

All farmers know that wood ashes
are valuable for fertilizer. But this
value, as many know. is due very
much to the material from which the
ashes come. Thus ashes made from
hard wood are more valuable than
ashes made from soft wood. In fact.
some ashes from soft wood have not
enough virtue to make 1t worth while
to bother with them. 1t has also
been found that the value is largely
governed by the part of the tree from
which the ashes is made 1t is de-
clared by chemists that the ash of
the young twigs is Of more value than
the ash OF the trunk of the tree. and
the ash of leaves still more valuable

In turning the eggs in the incubator,
see to it that they are turned entirely
over, not merely moved from one DO.
sition in the tray to another. When
the eggs are first placed in the tray,
with a pencil make a cross mark on
the egg. and in turning them see that
the~marks are all out of sight. Air
the eggs well at each turning time,
and as the chicks develop in the
shells increase the length of time of
allowing the eggs to remain on the
outside, for this is the life of the egg.
