This Man Hates to Eat.

Kansas City has a man who hates to eat.
Meals bore him, and if his friends dldn
drag him to the table he'd go without
eating for months. His name is Archie
Mcdowell and he is ~ years old
II know nothing of the pleasures of the
table, =" he said the other day. ga Thanks

attraction for me. [ have never been hun

pounds of solid food in the last three months.

existence.

Keeping A Few Bees.

When keeping few hives havefound,
during late years, the following methods
most successful:
There is no better place to keep one Or
more swarms of bees than in the attic of
house, or loft of a barn or other out
building.
am keeping a few swarms in the loft
of barn in the center OF our city. L
would recommend this method on farm
or in town.
Other things being equal, location in
a house or lot of other buildings, where
heat from below will keep it dry and warm
during coolest weather, is best. My own bees
are benefited by the fire kept during the
coldest weather in the stable below. In
such a location bees are liable to be dis
turbed, and in their flight to and from
their hives they are we'll above ground,
where they might cause annoyance. L
find also that when operating hives to take
surplus honey and for all methods of man
ipulation such location has many advan-
tages. The bees also winter much better
than when kept in more exposed locations.
While [ am an enthusiast in all that per-
tains to the mystery of the hives and honey
bees, and [ find in them one of my chief
forms of recreation, | feel that correct
system for the production Of strictly whole
some milk is a matter Of most supreme i'm
portance. Let the land flow with milk
and honey.

Handling the Layers.

How to obtain heavy egg production
in the fall and winter months when prices
are high is much studied question by all
interested in poultry. To be highly sue
cessful in any line you must start right.
You must have the best stock that can be
obtained You should hatch your pullets
in April or early May from eggs of parent
stock that are strong and vigorous. If
your breeding pen consists of 2year-old
hens, mate them to vigorous cockerels OF
the same breed. If you must use eggs
from pullets, they should be Of good size
and not less than l year old and mated to
a good cockbird. The first mating of hens
with cockerels is greatly to be preferred.
If one breeds Leghorns or any of the
Mediterranean class, they must not make
the mistake of Matching their pullets too
early. A friend of mine hatched hers in
March, and they are now moulting when
they should be shelling out the eggs at
good rate. The heavier breeds are not SO
apt to do this.
As to their daily feed, many writer's diff
fer, but our plan is to feed them at day
break prepared scratching feed or wheat
in their litter. Or, still better, after the
fowls have gone on their roosts for the
night shake up the litter we'll and scatter
the grain in it. In this way the birds are
not disturbed and you are soon welcomed
in the morning with a song of contentment.
At noon we feed the mash of chop feed
and the best wheat bran in equal proper
tions, with small quantity Of condimental
egg food added Their evening meal con-
sists of whole corn, and we try to have
their craws full on going to roost Always
have good supply of grit before them.
The nest boxes should be arranged so
that the birds can enter from the rear,
where it is darkened as they greatly pre-
fer dark nest A trapdoor can be made
SO that it can be easily opened in front to
remove the eggs.
My layers are confined in Il house which
is built with double walls and tar paper
with an air space. When the weather is
zero outside it shows 40 within. | will
admit that is warmer than most houses,
but in any tight house, where perfect
cleanliness exists and the proper food is
used, any good flock should show profit
during the entire winter.

SQUIRRELS Raid Admirals Home.

Invading the home of Rear Admiral
Ludlow at Sayville, N. Y, several hun
dred gray squirrels tore beautiful Ameri-
can silk flag worth $50 in the admiral s
home, broke crockery and glasses, and, al
though the Ludlow caretaker tried hard
to get the squirrels out Of the house, he
was unable to do SO.
The little fur coated animals have been
scampering about the country around Say
vile in droves, and farmers complain that
they are worse than an army Of rats. The
admiral has been particularly annoyed by
them. His summer home is an old place,
and a real colonial church, which is re-
garded as valuable relic, stands on his
estate. The admiral, who was in Phila-
delphia, sent word to the caretaker several
days ago asking him to get the house
ready for the summer. To get some Of the
things that were stored in the church the
caretaker went to the old place of worship
and on opening the door found almost a
thousand squirrels in the place. The next
day the caretaker drove the squirrels out
of the church and, spreading thick wire
netting about the outside of the building,
prevented them from getting back.
Proud of his victory, he went home and
the next morning went to the Ludlow
house. He found that the squirrels, un-
able to get back into the church, had
marched over to the dwelling and made
themselves comfortable. They tore down
the flag for nest making material and in
scampering about also broke most of the
glass and earthenware in the building. The
caretaker now is trying to devise a means
whereby he can get rid of the animals. He
is not permitted to shoot them, this being
the closed season for squirrels.

May 90 Abroad For Farm Hands.

Mr.. A. f. Trappe, Secretary of the
State Bureau of immigration, had con-
ference with Governor Warfeld Saturday
relative to the proposition of bringing i'm
migrants to Maryland to be used as farm
hands. The conference was the result OF
visit by Mr.. Trappe to Washington Fri
day last for the purpose Of ascertaining by
what right Maryland could go into the
business of bringing immigrants to the
State. He was informed by Mr.. F. P.
Sargent, Commissioner General of Immi-
grafton, that State rights would govern the
case so far as Maryland and other Southern
States are concerned.
Neither Governor Warfeld or Secretary
Trappe would discuss the outcome Of the
conference, but it was limited that the
Chief Executive was in favor of bringing
white labor to this State in the shape of
foreigners, and that in the end Mr.. Trappe
would be sent abroad to solicit immigrants.
The expenses for bringing these people, it
is thought, will be betrayed out of the
$40, 900 appropriation allowed the State
Board of immigration each year, the idea
being to use portion of this years appro-
priation and part of the money to be al
lowed the board next year. IF Mr.. Trappe
goes at all he will probably make the trip
next month, and his destination will be
Ireland, and from thence he may journey
to Holland, Denmark and, probably, Ger
many.
It is the general impression that the
best class of farm labor comes from these
countries, and while away Mr.. Trappe will
endeavor to point out the opportunities
afforded by Maryland for those seeking
homes in America.

FRIDAY AFTERNOON, JANUARY rs, 1907
Winter Horse Notes.

Plan to feed the colt this winter so he
will have good start, and do not let him
start backward. Oats is what is wanted.
Do not expose the horse so he will take
cold, either by allowing him to stand in
draft or by hard driving and then standing.
Are you ashamed of the way you keep
your horse? There are times when we
cannot keep a horse as we would like to,
on account of feed, but we should be on
the lookout. Can you not improve your
method?
In cold weather see that the horse has
a comfortable bed to sleep on. In order
to have it comfortable the bed must be dry,
and you cannot have it so without having
plenty of bedding. Act as if it were your
bed. Instead of letting that strawstack
rot down in the field haul some of it to the
barn and use it for bedding, and see if the
horses do not enjoy it. 1t will be worth the
trouble involved to you in this way.
While the horses are standing idle 1t Is
not so important to use the currycomb, yet
if you are not busy it will pay to give a
good grooming occasionally, and often
would be better.
As in all other things, you will have to
watch the little things in horseraising, for
if you do not they will get the best of you.
1t is the little things that make big things,
Keep your eyes open. Remember the
skin on horse tongue on zero morning
Warm the bit in some way before you put
it in his mouth. The vast amount of
cruelty to our animals must be put down.
Why not stop before it is stopped? You
do not need an expensive barn in order to
have a comfortable one, but if you will
close up the cracks to keep the wind out 1t
will count for much toward making it tit
place for horses to stay in.
have heard one man argue that horses
could stand out all winter and come through
in the spring just as good as ever, but any
man with level head is not going to try
the experiment to see whether it will kill
the horse or not. We need to be more
humane.
Horses need proper food to keep in
proper COnQlClOn. w ulle WOIhlusS3 lcOu iip
orally of oats, but when idle in winter SO
much oats is not necessary. At this time
the horse may have little corn, and with
good timothy and clover mixed hay for
roughage he will be all right.
Do not forget water for the horse in
winter. Do not think because it is cold
that he will not drink He needs water,
although not as much, but the horse should
be offered water twice day when standing
idle, and this should not be ice water.
There is another point which many horse
owners neglect or do not think about, and
that is exercise for the horse during the
idle season. We should see that the horses
have daily exercise during the winter
Light work is beneficial, but have lot next
to the barn to turn them in when not
working.
The best hay grown on your farm is the
kind which your horse should have this
winter and next spring while working.
