It IS almost as hard for an old
coffee topper to quit the use Of coffee
as it Is for a-whiskey or tobacco fiend
to break off, except that the coffee
user can quit coffee and take up
Postum without any feeling OF loss
OF the morning beverage, for when
Postum is well boiled and served with
cream, it is really better in point OF

nowadays, and to the taste of the con-

A great Transformation takes place

Dry Soil as o Deodcrizer.

We do not use any board floors
and have no need of them. With dry
soil, a tight roof and good ventilation
no deodorizer is needed in this eli
mate. If you must have board
foor, by all means put it up from
the ground so that there will not be
q harbor for rats or other vermin.
The following from Poultry Life in
America gives the ideas of a corre-
spondent of that paper, and they are
the same as those given in many other
poultry journals:
Don't let your poultry houses set
to smelling bad. If you are in a
damp location a board floor is an alb
solute necessity, and while you are
making the floor you might as we'll
raise it three feet and let the hens
play under it in bad weather. Then
when you clean the house, or the
boards rather, sprinkle a litCle dry
soil and there will be no bad door.
The soil mixed with the droppings
makes an elegant top dressing for
the melon, berry or potato patch. 1t
Is always best to keep some dry soil
under cover TO use in bad weather.
When the weather is dry your chicks
DO not need protection from the rain,
but when it is wet it is too late to
prepare it, so remember they need
sheltered feeding grounds. An open
shed will answer it.

understand how to feed to furnish the
proper food elements needed to pro-
duce them. Scientists have found,
after many analyses, that eggs con-
tain about five per cent. water, sew
enteen per cent. protein and thirty
three per cent. carbohydrates.
There is only about twice as much
carbohydrates as protein, while IN
most grain there are from six to ten
times as much. Wheat bran, which is
considered very rich in protein, con-
tains more than three times as much
carbohydrates as protein. Wheat
contains nearly seven times as much;
oats, five times; corn, nine times, and
barley, eight times. OIL meal, on the
other hand, contains nearly as mucn
protein as carbohydrates; gluten
meal, one and one-third times as
much carbohydrates as protein; cot
tonseed meal, twice as much; cows
milk, nearly as much; dried blood,
fifty-two times as much; meat meal,
nearly thirty times as much.
When it is desired to make a ration
of any of the grains for the procuc-
ton of eggs, it can be seen that
it is necessary to mix with any of
them some of the concentrated feeds,
which contain a great deal of pro-
tein. Thus, if wheat is led, meat
meal should be taken into the ration.
If corn is made the bulk of the grain
ration, liberal amount of dried
blood should also be fed. Since wa
ter makes up a half of the compost
ton of eggs, it is essential that the
laying hens have an abundance OF
clean water at all times of the day.

Heavy Weight Seeds.

T According to the Canadian expert
mental farms report the selection Of
plump and well-ripsned seed for SOW
ing is 4 great advantage. In each
seed is laid up store of food to be
used by the young plant in the early
stages of its growth. In a shrivelled
seed the store which can be drawn
on is very meagre and the growth un-
der such circumstances is slow, but
IN well-developed and plump kernel
the supply is abundant and the plant
starts out with a degree of vigor
which is usually maintained and the
resulting crop, all other conditions
being equal, is usually satisfactory.

A Cold Dairy Without Ice.

q plan for having good, cold milk
and butter all summer without ice.
1t is homemade dairy, is so cheap,
easily taken care Of, and is successful.
7 will give the plan, and any house
wife can have it with very little work.
1 Get four pieces of scantling 2x4
inches, six feet long, and nail pieces
two feet long each way, about 2A
feet from the ground, and nail pieces
OF the same at the top. Then board
bver top and also lay floor at bot
tom. Now put shelf on each side
and cover all around and on top with
nice clean bran sacks or burlap. Leave
one side open and put loops on it.
and nails on the side to fasten it.
I Put a tub on top and fill it with
water, and put woolen strips of cloth
two and three inches wide in it, so
that they feed the water down and
keep the sacking wet all the time.
The air blowing through the wet
sacks keeps everything almost as cool
as II It were in a refrigerator, and
the butter and milk tastes better than
If it were shut from the air, and will
keep fresh much longer in this dairy.
An old blanket makes the best feed
Ing strips; put in enough to have
three or four to each side.

Don't allow the hogs to become

An Iowa man has provided a ce-

In California the experiment will

Sometimes hogs will not thrive, al
though they have an abundance OF

thing as keeping hogs too long on
clover and the system demands some
thing else. Cut down the rations for
a while and feed soTe charcoal, salt
and copperas. This frequently will
start hog on the upgrade.
A correspondent asks whether it

not think it a good practice to allow
hogs the run of a large field. But If

the hogs are turned in early, they will
harvest it without much waste. Some

New York EGG Rules.


Several changes have been made
lately in the egg rules of the New
York Mercantile Exchange. The gen
eral requirements for the leading
grades are now as follow:
Extras-Free from dirty eggs, Of
good uniform size, eighty per cent.
fresh, reasonably full, strong-bodied,
sweet eggs; maximum loss permitted,
11A dozen to the case.
Extra Firsts-Reasonably clean
and of good average size; fifty per
cent. fresh, reasonably full, strong
bodied, sweet eggs; balance-other
than the loss-may be defective in
strength or fullness but must be
sweet; maximum total loss, three
dozen to case.
Firsts-Same as extra frsts except
forty per cent. maximum fresh, etc.,
and four dozen maximum loss.
Seconds-Reasonably clean and of
fair average size; thirty per cent.
fresh, reasonably full eggs; maximum
total loss, five dozen to case. ::
1t is important to shippers to know
what "loss" means in this connection,
and especially in view Of the recent
activity of the Health Board in pre-
venting the sale Of very inferior re-
jections; the rules provide: e.
"19. Loss as used in these rsles,
shall comprise all rotten, spotted.
broken (leaking), broken yelked,
hatched (blood-veined) and sour
eggs. Very small, very dirty, cracked
(not leaking), badly heated, badly
shrunken and salt eggs shall be
counted as half loss in all grades ez-
cepting dirties and checks"
Any egg containing a considerable
quantity of the reflections classed
above as full loss are now very OBJ
jectionable to buyers, and shippers.
