A REAL ~Hoss" RACE.
Country Fair the Place to See It at
Its Best.

If you would see a horse strap
ped, booted, braced and geared to
the limit, you must seek such a
track as you see at the old-time
country fair. Here comes an awk-
ward flea-bitten gray which never
went under 2:50 in his life. He is
hobbled and checked and goggled, and
hitched up sidewise, lengthwise and
crosswise until there is more har-
ness than horse. You wonder how
his driver ever got him into this rig
ging, and how he will get him out
again without cutting him free with
a jackknife. A farmer with a
gray beard and twinkling eye OBJ
serves to his neighbor:
Last time John Martin had that
plug out On the road I told him he
had the old cripple overloaded with
aids-to-the-injured. Them straps
that was callated to hoist up his

FATTENING POULTRY FOUR
METHODS ARE EMPLOYED
by G Arthur Bell Asst. Animal
Animal Industry.

Four methods of fattening poultry
are practiced in this country, viz:
Pen fattening, crate fattening, ma
chine examining and hand examining.
The first two are probably the most
common today, while the third is gain
ing rapidly as its results are becom-
ing better known, and the fourth is
used only where but few birds are
fattened.
Pen fattening is practiced by a great
many people who do not have the
time and inclination to use other meth
DDS. The essentials of pen fattening
are quiet, darkness, except at feeding
time, and plenty of soft green feed
given at regular intervals, usually
three times day. Birds may be kept
in focks of Is or 20, but the sexes
should be separated
In crate fattening a few fowls are
confined in crates and fed from
trough. A crate six feet long, and IS
or 20 inches wide is suitable and is
large enough for dozen BIRDS Some
times such crate is divided into two
or three compartments, to birds
being placed in each compartment.
But little room for the birds to move
about is desirable, for the less exer-
else the bird obtains the more readily
does it fatten. The top, back, and ends
of the crates should be solid if they
are to be placed outdoors, but if they
are to be in a building they may be
built of lath or STATS These Stats
should be two inches apart in front,
so as to permit the birds to eat from
the troughs, which are hung just out
side of the coop. The Stats of the
bottom of the coop should be about
one inch apart to permit the droppings
to fall through. In indoor feeding the
crates should be placed in a dark
room, and just before feeding enough
light should be admitted to allow the
birds to see to eat. They are usually
fed three times day, and are permit
ted to eat for half an hour at time.
when the room is again darkened and
the uneaten food removed
For the best results a machine is
essential, especially for the last ten
days, for otherwise the birds will not
eat nearly so much as they can digest
and assimilate.
Our illustration shows a examining
machine in operation at one of the
large poultry establishments in New

York state. A reservoir under which
is placed small force pump operated
by means of lever worked by the
foot is placed on a tripod A tube is
liked to one end of the pump, through
which the feed passes when the lever
rod is lowered. This tube is of rub
Der or metal. If rubber, it may have
a metal point. Metal tubes are more
easily kept clean. The feed is placed
in the reservoir, and is made into the
consistency of thick cream. There
are several ways of holding the bird.
but the following will be found simple
grip the bird firmly either between the
right elbow and side of the BODY. as
shown in the illustration or between
the left elbow and the body, which
ever is the more convenient. The
mead is grasped in the left hand, the
hrst finger being placed in the mouth
to keep it open. The tube is placed in
the mouth and the bird is drawn on
until the end of the tube reaches the
crop, the neck being elongated as
much as possible. The lever bar is
gently lowered by the foot and the
food is thus forced into. the crop. One
hand is kept on the crop and as soon
as it is sufficiently full the foot is
removed from the lever and the bird
is gently removed. The operator soon
learns to know when the crop is full.
NO stated amount that should be fed
to an individual can be given. for the
quantity varies with the size of the
crop. Great care should be taken in
preparing the feed to see that there
are no Jumps, for the tube is small
and easily becomes blocked.
Hand examining is a good system
where but few fowls are being fatten-
ed, but would be found rather labori-
Gus where many are fattened. The
reed is made into boluses. or halls.
which should be about. two inches
long and one-half inch in diameter.
A large number of these are prenared
before commencing to feed. The on
orator sits on stool or box firmly
grips the fowl between his knees.
and elongates the neck, holding the
head in a similar manner to that
described in using the examining ma
chine. He then dips bolus in skim
milk or water and forces it into the
birds mouth. pressing it down the

QUALITIES OF WIT AND HuMoa.
Alike, Yet in Many Ways Fundament.
ally Different.

Wit and humor are such elemental
fundamental things that it has always
been found difficult to analyze them,
says a writer in The Atlantic Upon
some points. however, those who have
essayed this puzzling task agree, for
they all hold that wit is an intel
lectual, humor an emotional, quality:
that wit is perception of resem-
blance, and humor perception Of
contrast, Of discrepancy, of incongru.
ity. The incongruity is that which
arises between the ideal and the fact,
between theory and practice, between
promise and performance; and per-
hans it might be added that it is al.
ways or almost always a moral In.
cOngruity. In the case both of wit
and humor there is also a pleasurable
surprise, gentle shock, which &C
companies our perception of the hith-
erto unsupported resemblance or in
congruity. A New England farmer
was once describing in the pres
ence of a very humane person the
great age and debility of horse that
he formerly owned and used. You

SEEK TO WIN SOLDIERS.
Russian Girls Risk Life for the Cause
of Liberty.

when the university opened last
autumn I started to work again
among the soldiers" said the young
woman. CAS- you know, the revolu-
tionists are at present working very
hard to win over the army, and one
of the means is to talk freedom di-
rectly to the soldiers. For this girls
have been found to be more effective
than men; the young peasant soldiers
are more willing to listen to girls,
and are far reader to protect them
from arrest. So all over Russia hun
dreds and hundreds of girls are now
nightly meeting with groups of SOL
diers, in working mems homes and in
barracks. To go into barracks and
talk revolution to the soldiers, hard
'1y anything is SO dangerous-for the
girl caught is tried by court-martial

| throat with his fingers. The neck
above the bolus is then gripped with
the thumb and first finger, which are
run downward along the neck, forcing
the bolus into the crop. 1t will prob
ably take from IA to Is of these bo-
luses to fill the crop. depending on it's
capacity. Some feeders practice this
method in connection with crate fat
tening. The attendant, after feeding
in the. crates, feels the crop of each
bird, and any not having a sufficiently
filled crop are crammed in the manner
described
Fattening birds should always re-
ceive soft feed. AS they have no ex-
ercise they require a feed that can
be quickly and easily digested. The
following mixture is fed at the New
York establishment referred to under
the description of examining machine:
100 pounds finely ground barley, 100
pounds finely ground corn, 100 pounds
finely ground oats with bulls sifted
QUIT, to which mixture is added 10
per cent of beef scraps. Buttermilk
or skim milk is used for mixing, the
former being preferred. A little salt
is sometimes added. The birds are
fed twice day at intervals of twelve
hours, and are crammed for about
three weeks. 1t is important that the
intervals between the feelings should
be as nearly equal as possible.
Another ration may be made as fol-
lows: 100 pounds ground oats, 100
pounds ground corn, SO pounds flour,
4 pounds tallow.
