perience of those who have been in
timately identified with the manage
ment since the first meeting, and the
result of their work is the hes.
racing card offered on the Northwest

The latter is triangular in shape, being
provided with two diverging wings. The
purpose of the cleaner is to travel over
the surface Of the ground and remove
the eXcavated material from the edges
Of the ditch. The beam A is hinged to
the cleaner, 50 as to provide for d GER
tain amount Of vertical motion. Below
the beam and forming an angle there
with is a blade G., provided with a cut
ting edge at its lower end, which serves
to enter the earth more or less deeply
as the pillow is drawn forward and
carry the excavated material to the
surface. At its forward end this blade
is braced by means of a support D,
which is fastened TO the beam A. At
the forward end Of tie beam A IS
cleyiS bar E, which is secured at it's
upper end to draft bar +, extending to
the rear of the beam A. In this clevis

The blackhead disease which has be-

past few years has been under investi-
cation by the experiment station at

Of the trouble. 1t lives in the tissues
Of the turkey and causes irritations
that result in the death of the affected

showed that more than four ffths of
the young pOults exposed in infected
yards die before they are six weeks
old. The disease has been popularity
supposed to be confined to birds over
six weeks 1t is notably a disease af
fecting young turkeys. but one from
which the older turkeys do not escape.
OF the one-ffth that do escape or sur
vive It's ravages at least ten to twenty
five per cent may die throughout the
year at almost any age.
The eradication and prevention of
the disease is somewhat difficult but no
reliance can be placed on any drug to
cure Il bird that is already infected.
Since the blackhead disease is less pre-
valent in dry situations it is apparent
that sandy, well-drained lands are bet
ter for raising turkeys than the heav-
Ter moist clay soils.

Starting Seeds indoors.

Any one who intends to start seeds
indoors needs a knowledge of various
facts concerning each variety-the
length of time needed for termination.
the time required for the plant to reach
the blooming or fruitaga stage. and
whether it can be transplanted to the
open ground with safety in early
spring, or not until considerably later.
For instance, says Suburban Life.
chrysanthemum seeds will terminate in
from five to ten days, but TIE plants re-
quire very long season Of growth be-
fore Towering, and the person who gets
ahead Of Jack Frost must SOW the
seeds not later than March land
earlier, if possible. With varieties
which terminate quickly. grow rapid
ly and bloom early, the sowing should
be delayed at least a month, to avoid
the trouble of repeated transplantings.
