The freight car situation Is better In the
middle west than Il has been for some
time This Is accounted for first, by the
light loading OF grain by the farmers, who
are engaged In their spring work, and
secondly. by the refusal OF the railroads
south Of St Louis 20 accept grain for
Nashville because OF the accumulation Of
grain at that point and the liability Of the
grain heating in the cars, this being the
season Of gerrnina ton.
The Burlington has had for ten days all
the equipment necessary for all classes Of
business, because Of the slack in the de-
mand for grain cars. There Is still little
1895 corn IN the country and about S OF R
per cent OF the 1906 corn, which is being
held for higher prices and other reasons.
All the roads are in better shape than
they have been for some time, as the
blockade was raised on the Union Pacific
over a week ago and that road has been
able to take all the cars which the other
roads were holding for II.

treated with raw oil and white lead or
shellac and oil is suitable for this pur-
pose. Canvas may be rendered dark
In color by mixing lampblack with the
oil. AS an especial precaution against
possible tearing of the canvas at the
top OF the fumigator a wire net may
be tackled on the inside of the frame
so as to prevent the limbs from com
ing In contact with the canvas. The
canvas may be sewed in such a man
ner that three sides are inclosed with
one large sheet. Around the base of
the fumigator strip of canvas 18
inches wide is securely tackled and
when the box is in place these strips
lie on the ground and may be covered
with dirt or, preferably, long sand
bags of small diameter for preventing
the escape of the gas. These strips
may be fastened up out of the way
when the fumigator is being moved.
The movable face of the box rests
3pon a two-inch flange which Is cay
Fed with felt SO as to prevent leak.

CHICKEN FEED.

See that the little chicks, as we'll as
the older ones, have plenty Of water,
and renew it often.
Have the shelter places about in the
chicken grounds where the chicks can
run to shelter from showers and from
birds of prey.
Ducklings are easier raised by hand
than by hen. If Matched in April or
May, they require no heat, but should
be placed in box at night and taken
indoors while very young.
Put little tobacco dust and ashes
in the nests. This Is the time when
lice and mites begin to multiply rapid.
ly and good insecticide will 90 a
long way towards destroying them.
The hen is truly profit payer. She
Is capable Of producing from $50 to 200
eggs in a year. If these eggs were
Matched and the chicks sold at the
age Of six months, they would yield
return of no less than $50.

FUMICAT0R FOR SMALL
TREES In THE NURSERY
Apparatus Simple; Treatment Effec.
tive. BY United States AgricuI-
ts turai Department Expert.

Fumigation with hydrocyanic-acid
gas has been recognized for some
time as one of the most effective
means of dealing with San Jose scale
and other scale insects. This method
OF treatment has been applied to
nursery stock as we'll as to trees
standing in orchards. The labor nee
essary for manipulating a tent or box
covering for trees in orchards Is un-
der any circumstances considerable,
and this gives importance to the prob
lem OF devising cheap, easily man.
aged and effective covering for fumi-
eating trees. The frame of the fumi.
gator illustrated herewith is construct
ed OF pine strips three inches wide
and seven-eighths inch in thickness,
the strips being braced on three sides
by double cross-pieces midway be-
tween top and bottom and short
braces at angles. The base has but
three sides, the fourth side being
omitted so as to avoid the necessity OF
lifting the fumigator over the top of
the tree. In order to strengthen the
base, two trips extend from the back
strip of the base to the front end of
the side strips. Two stouter strips are
bolted onto the sides at convenient
height for carrying the fumigator. The
fourth side is separate from the rest
OF the fumigator, is made of the same
material, and fits tightly in place
against the two-inch flange on the
face of the box.
The frame is covered with any gas

CARE OF THE
DAIRY BARN
BY Ed. H. Webster. ". S. Department
Of Agriculture.

The barn and its care have an i'm.
portant influence in the production Of
pure milk. AS it is impossible to Sc
cure this in dirty, dark barn, reeking
with odors OF manure, its construc,
ton must be taken into account. Plen
ty Of air space must be provided in or
der to insure pure air from 900 to
1000 cubic feet being needed for each
animal. An abundance of window
space must be provided. Enough light
should enter to enable one to read a
newspaper in the darkest places. The
ventilation should be such that the
air Is changed every few minutes.
Anyone contemplating new barn
or the reconstruction of an old barn
to conform with the ideas here men.
toned should secure some good treat.
ise on barn construction and ven.
tilation. 1t Is evident to any oh.
server that one of the difficul.
ties in securing good milk is the dark,
poorly ventilated and constructed
barns, containing rotten wooden floors
that cannot be cleaned. Concrete is
the best material for floors, 1t is
economical and can easily be kept
clean. {. wood Is used in floor con
struction, 1t should be closely laid in
pitch and kept in perfect repair. The
interior of the barn should be kept
well covered with whitewash, which
acts as a purifier and makes the
rooms much lighter.
AS usual thing bank barns are
not good dairy barns, unless the stalls
are placed on the floors entirely above
ground and the basement is used for
storage of implements or purposes of
similar nature. A basement as or
dinarily constructed is dark and damp
and has low ceilings 1t is difficult
to ventilate and entirely unfit for
housing animals. The drainage of the
yards around the barns is very impor.
tant Yards must be dry and firm.
An accumulation of manure in the
yards is every Objectionable. Tha
dairy1nan who compels his cows te
wade knee-deep in manure before
they can get into the barn, can never
expect to secure good milk. All
dairy barns should be light and airy,
admitting lots of sunshine when need.
ed, and be kept in good sanitary con
dition.

sary for the treatment of each tree IL
readily determined The same
amounts of chemicals will be use for
each tree, and the necessity of separ.
ate estimations Of amounts and weigh.
ings OF chemicals in the field are thus
avoided. Fewer men are required to
manipulate the fumigator than would
be necessary to handle a tent large
enough to cover trees of the same
size. The fumigator does not rest
upon the trees, and there is therefore
little danger of injury to buds or
Of breaking small limbs. Trees which
bear some long branches may be
pruned sufficiently to admit them into
the fumigator without injury. The
frame of fumigator constructed in this
manner was found to be rigid and suf-
ficiently strong, and the whole proved
to be gas-tight.

SETTING HEN AND BROOD.

Managing setting hens is not so
Sord as some people think. The most
practical points are to have good
hen. Don't set wild hen After
having selected the hen, then comes
the nest box. A very good method Is
to use a small store box about the
right size and place about one inch of
earth in the bottom, then put in the
fine straw. This makes good nest.
My reason for using earth, says a
writer in Orange Judd Farmer, Is
that it holds the moisture and helps
keep lice away. .,
After having the nest ready place
13 eggs in 1t II the hen Is medium
size and Is If large. Fasten the hen
on so other hens will not disturb her.
Let her off every morning on the
ground If possible. If this cant be
done, by all means give her some
dust to scratch in. For feed, give
her corn and plenty of grit. About
the 21st day you will find nest full
of lively chicks If the eggs We're fer,
tile and proper care has been given
the hen. When the chicks are dry,
place hen and chicks in a dry coop
and feed them often.

can be grown without bacteria If there
Is an abundant supply of available nj
