Z Poultry Diseases.

Scaly legs, which are a scourge in
many poultry yards, can be traced alb
solutely to filth, damp quarters, and
neglect. Roup, canler, consumption,
sore eyes, may all be traced to damp
ness, cold draughts blowing through
the houses, and unnatural exposure to
inclement weather. Nothing causes
these ailments as quickly as damp,
unhealthy poultry houses in which the
fowls are compelled to sleep. Diph
iberia, canker and roup are all kindred
diseases, which can be directly blamed
upon those having charge of the fowls.
If the birds have comfortable. reason
ably dry, properly ventilated houses,
with sanitary conditions, there is but
little danger Of these ailments unless
they are caught by coming in contact
with other ailing birds, or being ship
ped to and from shows in boxes or
coops that are contaminated. Rheuma-
tism, gout, and leg weakness is usual
ly blamable upon hereditary condi-
tions, inbreeding, overfeeding, or un-
healthy, damp quarters. All of these
diseases may be prevented by remov
ing the possibility of the contamina-
tion.-The Feather.

A Good Sheep Feeder.

A Wisconsin sheep feeder, who fed
lot bought last February, at the
Chicago stock yards and fed them for
80 days, sold them in Chicago few
days ago at s6.10 per hundred, says
the Drovers Journal. They were range
bred. For the first two days he fed
them on clover hay, then they were
put on screenings, with clover and
timothy hay and shredded fodder. The
roughage was fed in racks. For shell
ter the sheep had a large basement and
they were shut into it when it storm
ed. The screenings were put into self
feeders. Water was supplied in tank
In the basement and salt was kept be-
fore them all the time. In clipping
feeders he said 1t pays if you have a
good stable and you get an average of
or s pounds of wool. | clip my
lambs every season before selling. In
finishing fattening sheep l generally
feed corn in the troughs and screenings
all the timein the self-feeders.

clininn the Horse.

Clipping in the winter time is gen.
orally condemned, especially clipping of
the legs, which cannot be protected by
blanketing. Scratches often come
when horses legs are clipped, par
ticularly if he stands out in all wealth
ers. A clipped horse needs two blank
cts instead of one; in very cold wealth
er he should wear one blanket under
the harness The long, coarse strag-
Cling hair that often grows out on a
clipped horse means that he has suf-
fered much from cold
Most veterinarians agree, however,
in advising that horses be clipped in
the spring Of the year. At this sea-
son the horse sweats easily and the
long hair holds the moisture. In the
stable his animal heat goes to dry the
cold, wet hair, and the food energy
that should recuperate his tired body
is used up in replenishing the animal
heat. On the clipped horse the per-
spiration dries out readily, and so there
are no drains upon his supply of ami
NAL heat.
An experiment was made some years
ago by a Buffalo street car company;
they clipped $50 Of their 500 horses
and kept careful record of results.
OF the unclipped horses, 153 were
troubled with colds or pneumonia,

Hiuh Cost of Sable Furs.

Extraordinary stories are being told
about the increasing scarcity and
value of sables, which, London pa
per says, people are beginning to pass
down as heirlooms to their descen-
dants. A sable coat which two years
ago would have cost $4,000 would
now be valued at $4,000, as $3.50 is
at present being asked for single
skim The two most costly sable
coats in the world are worn by the
Empress Of Russia and her cousin,
Queen Maud Of Norway. The coat
in the possession Of the Empress is
made of the finest sables which could
be obtained in Europe, and is worth
about S250,000, while that which
Queen Maud wore when she went
with King Haakon to the famous
Giuldhall banquet in the early part
of the winter is probably worth
$150,000.

Field Peas for Hogs.

The South Dakota Station advises
mixing peas with oats, two bushels to
one Of oats per acre, sowing for hogs.
The oats are put in to keep the peas
off the ground as they will rot when
lying on the ground. The Canada field
pea is used with an early maturing va
riety of oats. The ground should be
well prepared and the peas and oats
drilled deep enough to get into the
moisture. Plant the first thing in
the spring as soon as the ground is
warm. In experiments conducted with
the pease as pig feed 1t was found that
1t required 421 pounds COW peas to pro-
duce hundred pounds of gain, as COM
pared with 45S pounds Of corn to pro-
duce hundred pounds of gain. Peas
are very nitrogenous and make a good
feed to furnish protein in balancing
rations for swine.

WENT TO TEA

Tea drinking frequently affects
people as badly as coffee. A lady in

1t threatened to ruin her health and
that she went over to tea drinking,
but finally she had dyspepsia SO bad
that she had lost twenty-five pounds
and no food seemed to agree with
her.
She further says: "At this time I

RATS AND THE FARMERS
Many Millions the Cost of the Pests
Depredatlons.

The Agricultural Department has
issued a statement that the brown
rat is the worst mammalian pest in
existence. "If," the statement says,
"for each COW, horse, sheep and dog
on the farms the farmers support
one rat on grain, the loss would be
s100,600,000 a year.
Their prolificness is the chief OBJ
stacle to their determination. If
three litters of 10 each are produced
every year, single pair, breeding
without check and without losses by
death, in three years would be rep
resented by 10 generations and would
number 20,155,392 individuals. The
eleventh generation, due at the be-
ginning Of the fourth year, would
number over 100,000,000.

Handy Wagon Necessary.

Every farm should have handy
wagon, one of the low-down, wide-tire
kind. For stacking grain, hauling hay
or fodder, for driving over soft fields,
the handy wagon,is just the thing. One
need not be so particular about putting
1t under cover, and besides, it leaves
the other wagons clean and in nice
shape for general hauling. The mar
row tire, high wheels are better for
road hauling, but do not use mar

Profitable Dairy Cow.

Unless the matter has been force
fully called to the attention of the
small dairyman, he has very little idea
of the outward appearance of what
a good dairy animal should be. Most
farmers like large, slick well-rounded
animals in keeping with the appearance
of the family driving horse, while in
fact all surplus flesh and tendency to
lay on fat is Objectionable, for in just
