ALTERNATING MALES.

1t is the style with some to decorate
their pens with two males. One rests
a day, while the other rules the harem.
This is a splendid plan If the birds are
brothers and well matched. A friend
was stunned by what he Matched by
using two Single Comb Brown Leg
horn cocks of different strains. One
batch was perfect in plumage, shape
and comb, but had green legs. while
another batch had black speckled
plumage, flop combs and yellow legs.
Our friend was mad and sad.
He had sold the eggs for pure stock
and also had no pullets for breeding
and customers.
The one cock had game In him: but
like our evil traits, it couldn't be var
nished over.

FEATHERS AND EGGsHELLs.

The gasoline engine is becoming a
feature in the poultry work. We grind
our own shell, bone, cracked corn,
wheat, charcoal, pump water, etc., with
a two and half horsepower station
airy.
Since we grind our own feed the
mortality has been very small, and the
time and strength given to hand ma
chinery are put on something else.
Take $3.50 and do likewise.
The bulldog is the proper policeman
for poultry plant. Our dog sleeps
right In with the chickens and runs
through the ITO foot scratching shed at
night. He is gentle In the home, but
at night recognizes no friends except
the members of the family. He's
bully burglar alarm.
A properly fed cat will not touch
little chicks. 1t Is mistake to exclude
them. If cat has reasonable
amount of meat, he will not make
trouble. We hatch thousands of young
chickens, and our big tiger cat goes
through the breeders and even lies
down and lets the peeps crawl under
his legs and run over him, but never
even steps on them. He and the bull
dog chase all other tomcats from the
place. and even the sparrows don't
bother us.
1t Is time for you to make out that
order for fruit trees. We have plant
ed over 100 young trees and expect in
a few years to have them pay our feed
bills. The Bartlett pear. the Burbank
plum, the Baldwin and Smokehouse APP
Piles are the money makers.
When you ship eggs for Matching,
do not pack them in buckwheat bulls.
They are poor protection and too
heavy. Let excelsior be your motto.
When a man has a beautiful farm,
splendid buildings and flock of mon
grel chickens. the pictures spoiled.
That's not thoroughbred.

or that. and every other fellow has

PROTEST USE OF

American Manufacturers Learn That
Foreign Cloth Is Used for SOL

Washington, July 8.-Secretary of
War Wright has received from certain
New England manufacturers of khaki
cloth a protest against the use of
British-made khaki for the uniform of
the soldiers and constabulary in the
Philippine islands. The protest re-
cited that the uniforms were not only
of British material but were made up
in Manila by Chinese labor, thus ex-
Guiding not only American manufac-
turers of khaki but American labor
in the production of the uniforms
Secretary Wright made it clear that

was not aware of the protest. as il
was not received until after he had
relinquished the portfolio of secretary
of war 1t was pointed out at the
war department that much of the
khaki used in this country, especially
by officers of the army. is of British
manufacture, practically all of the
military tailors furnishing the foreign
article in preference to the cloth oi
