SUCCESSFUL IN POULTRY.

One of the most successful raisers
of fine poultry in the Pacific north
west is w. d. Good, of Mt. Vernon,
Wash. Mr.. Good has for number of
years been an advertiser in The
Ranch, and is known to many of its
readers, especially those who are in,
terested in fine poultry. He has al
ways obtained splendid results and is
we'll satisfied with the journal as an
advertising medium. 1t was only four
years ago that Mr.. Good started in
the poultry business on small scale
at his present location, eight miles
southwest of Mt. Vernon, and at the
time he had only few fowls of each
of five different varieties. In last
years catalogue, Mr.. Good exploited
twelve different well-known varieties
which he was raising at that time on
his ranch and this years catalogue
will show over 20 varieties. Mr.. Good
now has the largest number of fine
varieties of fowls of any poultry ranch
in the northwest. His new catalogue
will be ready for delivery by Deem
Der LIST and will be one of the hand
soonest poultry catalogues ever issued
in the United States, being engraved
and printed by the Republic Press,
the acknowledged leaders in fine print
ing in the northwest. This catalogue
will be deliberately illustrated and will
be full of matter of vital interest to
all poultry raisers. Everyone inter
ested in fine poultry should send to
Mr.. Good for one of these catalogues.
which will be sent free on request.
Mr.. Good is a native son of Wash
ington, having been born and raised
in the vicinity of Mt. Vernon. In adj
dition to his choice varieties of poul-
try, he has also eggs and egg stock

orchard and would plant with that
aim so far as possible, providing the
trees would all allow the same cutting
back with good buds for limbs below.
If the trees are already branched,
| would advise the thinning by cut
ting out all surplus limbs, leaving
about three or four well distributed
limbs which, in time, should form the
main branches. And these should be
cut back one-half or more. This is
especially necessary for spring plant
ing in dry climate.
The evaporation of moisture from
the leaves must be considered. Too
many leaves will exhaust the sap and
injure the tree before the roots be-
come sufficiently active to supply the
demand, besides the early removal
of unnecessary branches will promote
the growth of the remaining ones.
Unless unavoidable circumstances
forbid, would advise to start the
first limbs about Is to 20 inches from
the ground. This may not seem as
convenient to cultivate as higher

trunk, but as our chief aim is profit,
we will, for a moment consider the
advantage of low heading.
First, there will be no danger OF
the trunks becoming sunburned and
infested with borers. (However, the
first year, at least, the trunk should
be shaded by means of building paper
or narrow board placed in the
ground to cast a shadow against the
trunk from the 1 to 8 o'clock sun.
Second, the fruit will be nearer the
ground and it will be much easier to
harvest the crop, and it is less at the
mercy of the wind.

One of his choice varieties is imported

try should not fail to send for his book
