VaseIine as an Eco Preservative.

VaseIine as an Egg Preservative.
An experiment station in Germany
kept eggs eight months, testing TWEEN
ty methods. Most of the eggs spoiled,
but all of those preserved with water
glass, lime or vaseline were good at
the end of the period. The Naselinc
method is a new one and consists SIM
ply of coating the eggs with the petro
Ieum product and keeping them i'll Il
cool place The covering of the grease
like substance keeps the air out of the
pores. This method requires little eX-
pense. a ten cent bottle of vaselinc
being sufficient TO preserve ten dozen
If the substance is heated until it is
semiliquid and the eggs are rolled
around in 1t. Care should be taken to
see that every part of the shell is COW
cred. The vaseline also may be ap-
piled cold.

A POULTRY EXPERIENCE.
What One Woman Did With a Rather

What One Woman Did With a Rather
Small Flock of Hens.
That there is money ii poultry. espc
cially in the country, is shown 10y the
experience of Mrs. uuldah NJ. Malone,
which she gives as follows in the Farm
ers' Guide:
We live on small farm of eight
acres and raise Single Comb White
Le@horns. My poultry account appears
small after reading in the paper where
one man gets an average of two and
one-half eggs per day of hen for IL
whole month. have been keeping an
account Of what my small flock has
done for the past three or four years,
what 1t cost and what | got for my
work. For one year, commencing Dec
9, 1905 from eight ycar-uld hens and
100 pullets. April and May Matching, l
received 1856 eggs. sold eggs to
the amount of $lt9.il ut prices ranging
from 10 to - cents per dozen. -Four
hens were set, which Matched fifty
three chicks and raised forty-tlvc
These furnished us all the fried chick
en- we wanted. with twenty pullcts left
for another year as producers. l now
have 40. l lost thirty-SiX hens during
the last year from various causes.
During this time fed 100 bushels of
corn, costing $iG.10; twenty bushels of
buckwheat at $3.50; fifty-one bushels
of oats at $1239, making Il total of
$G740. In addition to these grains we
fed ten bushels of carrots and garden
bcets, which cost us nothing but the
labor to produce.
The hens have Il range of six acres,
of which two acres are in pasture and
the other four are farmC( The net

malicious attack upon DR.. Il. V. Pierce

ents. DIR. Pierce promptly brought suit
against the publishers Of the Ladies'
Home Journal, for 500, 10000 damages.
DIR. Pierce alleged that Mr.. BOX, the

Cennnnk Block Poultry House

We had rather have Il single walled
poultry house built of good sound lum-
Der than any other kind that has Yet
been devised. says writer III Rclia-
bic Poultry Journal. Cement blocks
might answer very well and undoubt-
eddy would make Il good and Satisfac-
tory building. bat we believe the first
cost would be much greater than that
Of wooden building. and for strictly
practical purposes do not consider that
the first cost Of Il poultry building
ought to exceed 30 to 20 cents per head
of the flock. which it is intended to
house in it.

POULTRY WISDOM.
Hints of All Sorts on the Management
of Feathered Pets.

of Feathered Pets.
There Is good in every breed.
Grow cropOf turnips for the ducks.
Count the chickens that you raise,
not those that you hatch.
Ducks should not be given corn nor
rornmeal during hot weather.
Let the newly Matched chicks run
with the hen as long as possible.
The India runner is the best laying
variety of the duck family.
Whoever undertakes to raise late
chickens must expect to fight lice.
Try hard to raise more of the chicks
you hatch this year than ever before.
Bone fed in some shape Is absolutely
necessary If you wish eggs.
Neatsfoot oil Is highly recommended
as n remedy for scaly legs In fowls.
Apply with a soft brush.
During hot weather 1t is safer to
run the incubator in a cool, dry cellar
than 1t Is above ground.
Vegetables are best fed in a raw
state. Cut them up in root or bone
cutter and feed in troughs.
During summer there should be but
two regular feeds for the breeding
stock. Give grass or green stuff at
noon.
Watch the droppings of the poultry.
Much regarding the health of the fowls
can be told from their condition.
Be careful of the half grown chicks.
Many hens wean their young too soon,
and cold rain is sure death to them.
If properly grown and cared for, the
June Matched pullets will come into
profit almost as quickly as May
Matched birds.
A goose egg weighing five ounces
will hatch a gosling that in three
months will weigh from ten to eleven
pounds.
A good sized yard should be fenced
In for the hen with little chicks until
the latter are able to keep up with
their mother
Plant plenty of beets or mangel wur-
zels. There is nothing that the poul-
try like better in the way of green
food
Eggs that have been kept two or
three weeks produce weak chickens
Better use fresh laid eggs for Matching
Put poles in the top of an open shed
for the turkeys. During warm weather
they should never be required to sleep
In a close roost
This hot, sultry weather be careful
how you feed your little chicks. If
too much feed be thrown about in a
sloppy condition 1t may sour and cause
trouble In the f1ock-Farm Journal.

Scaly Leg.

Scaly leg is caused by Il parasitic
scab mite. The best and most salts
factory treatment is to prepare sat
urate solution Of naphthalene flakes i'll
kerosene. Dip the legs IN this solution
or sponge them with it every other
day until three applications have been
made. BE careful to see that none of
the mixture gets on the soft flesh
above the hooks. as it will blister. Do
not permit the bird to 20 to roost
Immediately after applying the mix
ture To the LEGS. Apply the remedy in
the daytime and put the bird down or
the floor after it has received treat
mcnt 50 that it can run about.

A Few Goose Pointers"

when the fatteniug season arrives,
says an experienced goose farmer.
keep the geese shut away from bathing
water and feed barley meal, cOrnmcal
and beef scraps and chopped celery
and keep III subdued light for three
or four weeks, then let out for Il couple
of days to enjoy the use of Il pond.
Then return to their clean quarters and
feed on barley meal and milk aaa
chopped celery for two or three days
letting them 80 for twcntyfour hours
before killing. and You will have gees,
fit for kin"

Why Keen MonqreIs?

If the production of eggs is the most
valuable branch of poultry culture,
how, asks the Feather, can any one
who may be engaged even to a greater
or less extent in their production be
60 shortslghted, so foolish, so careless,
or 50 neglectful of their own interests,
MS to brush aside the only valuable
feature of success, and to hold on to
the mongrel product, which scarcely
ever pays for Its keep?

Seiactinu Euus For hatchina.

One should be as careful in selecting
eggs for Matching as in selecting par
ent stock. Choose medium to large
eggs, as nearly perfect in shape and
color as possible. Uniformly colored
eggs look much better than a mixed
lot and Will usually sell better. Some
select the short, round eggs, believing
these Will produce a large percentage
of pullets. but the shape of the eggs
has nothing to do with the sex of the
chick. Continuous selection of the
roundest eggs will gradually produce a
strain of hens that will lay round eggs
Of imperfect shape.

PRESERVING Euos.

Eggs should keep quite we'll for two
