CLEAN UP OFTEN.

Numberless cases of unthrifty and
| Improbable or even diseased focks
are caused by the chickens roosting
| over their own excrement. A good
many people think that cleaning out
the droppings once month is strict
poultry cleanliness, but this is so
only when compared with that clean
illness which demands clean up once
or twice year. 1t is hard to clean
UP a poultry house too often; remem-
Der that
For instance, just imagine yourself
in old Biddy's place and do a little
tall thinking. In her wild state she
would roost in tree sufficiently high
that the fumes arising from her ex-
crement would not reach her at all;
and it stands to reason that if she
is forced to sleep just short dis
lance above the gathered filth of
many nights, as she so frequently is.
her breathing apparatus is going to
get out of order and her constitu-
ton is bound to be undermined and
her vitality sapped. This makes her
susceptible to Group, cholera and 9TH
er more or less serious diseases, and
often is the direct cause Of her death
a little later on.-Epitomist.

CEMENT BARNS.

An Illinois correspondent writes:
Can you give me any information
with regard to building cement
block barn 36x60 feet with an eight.
foot basement and sixteen feet above
for. hay How thick would the walls
have to be, and would it be prac-
tfcal to build such a barn?"
It is entirely practical to build a
barn of this kind, using cement blocks
for the wall. However, If We were
intending to build such a barn we
would make the walls solid concrete
instead of using the cement blocks;
not only because it would probably
be cheaper but because we think it
makes better wall Several years
since we built on our Nebraska ranch
barn 32x80 feet, making the walls
of solid concrete up twelve feet with
ample hay room above These walls
are nine inches thick. It makes a
very satisfactory barn, being warm
in winter and cool in summer-WaL

A Modern pearl Farm.

In the Gulf of Lower California
there is in operation the largest pearl
farm in the world, where the cult
walton of pearls has been taken up
as a practical industry. To harvest
the annual crop of pearls raised on
this farm requires the labor of a
thousand persons, including the mod
ern pearl divers, whose methods have
been completely revolutionized bv the
up-to-date appliances employed in
this new industry Pearl farming,
as originated by the Mexican Germany
which owns the big Lower California
farm. is the result CT the discovery
of very simple fact concerning
pearl-bearing mollusks After twenty
five years Of study and experiment it
was discovered that the shell loses
its gem after it is two years old.
and unless opened at the proper time
there will be no pearl within. Fol-
lowing this discovery the system
whereby the shells are cultivated IN
til the prcDer time and then opened
was devised From the time of plant
ing the eggs to the harvesting of the
crop two years must elapse. as that
length of time is required for thu

hat high grade conditions in any

by steps at a time, from good to bet

mere and there first established are
slowly giving way to pure bred cows.
With the pure breds of noted milk
and butter strains the grade herds
are being superseded all over the
country. Wherever established they
are proving more profitable than
grade herds for the reason that, as
a rule by marked per cent. over

CORN AND MEAT MAKING.

It won't be long till we have be-
| fore us object lessons like the fol.
lowing:
/. Beef cattle of 1,400 pounds
weight at 2 years old, grown and
fattened ON 25 per cent. less corn,
with alfalfa as a chief ration, cost
ing much less to make it than now.
2. Hogs weighing 200 pounds at 2
months old made on alfalfa and 81
per cent. less corn than is now used
to make them.
8. Alfalfa meal for sheep in win
ter feeding and half the grain now
used, with more wool and mutton and
healthier sheep. Good alfalfa hay cut
up, mixed with a little corn meal
and moistened, will do about the
same in sheep feeding.
The point in these object lessons,
which are common facts where al
falfa in plenty is grown, is that such
feeding is going to save nearly half
the high priced corn, and enable
farmers to grow more cattle, sheep
and hogs and to return more fertil-
ity to the farm.
Any good corn and clover land prop
erly prepared will grow alfalfa, and
when these things are understood
more alfalfa will be grown for feed
ing, SO as to reduce the cost of max
ing meat and wool.-Indiana Farmer
