Cowpea Experiment.

The soil of the experimental farm Of

Washington is an ordinary not over
productive bottom land. To deter
mine the influence of one seasons
treatment with cowpeas on one area
,owpeas were turned under and anoth-
sr similar area Of like character was
summer fallowed. In the autumn of
1906 rye was sown upon these areas,
and at harvest time one-half acre was
accurately measured and harvested
rom each Of the plats. The plat up
on which cowpSas were grown the
previous year gave a yield of rye at
the rate Of "A bushels to the acre,
while the area which was summer fall

Sheep Stomach Worms.

fiockmaster who has been testing
the value Of tobacco for parasites in
sheep contributes his experience to
the American Sheep Breeder as fol-
lows:
We have given tobacco a thorough
trial and for information 10 fellow
breeders we give the following rules:
Take by measure salt six parts. DOW
dered tobacco two parts and worm
powders one part. Mix these thor
oughly aHd keep before your f1ock at
all times, also keep before your lambs
from day Of birth on. They soon
learn to like this mild mixture. and
still 1t is plenty strong enough to
give ambitious parasites a deathly
neadache-one which sends them TO the
land OF bye and bye. Always powder
your tobacco before mixing with salt.
Tape worms are not always DESTROYED
by the tobacco treatment, yet they are
reduced to minimum. Excessive
feeding OF tobacco Is liable TO cause
nervous disorders and ALSO affect the
breeding powers of both rams and
ewes, causing them to become some
what impotent. Ye; when tobacco
Is allowed in moderate quantities IT il
boon and blessing to all sheepkind
and well worthy of trial.

CroWdlnq Poultry.

Crowding is common mismanage-
ment on the farm and results in bad
effects because it always makes good
conditions bad and bad conditions
worse
There is no argument whatever
that can be advanced in defense of
overcrowding fowls. 1t has been
thoroughly proven that ten hens in a
house that gives them plenty Of room
will lay more eggs than twenty hens
that are crowded; hence. one not only
gets fewer eggs when there are too
many hens together, but the cost of
food Is greater and the amount Of the
work Is increased.
Trying to do too much with too lit
tie resources. has caused a good
many failures. The proper way is to
keep but a few hens and make them
all pay, rather than to overdo the
thing and fall down" with the whole
business.-Epitomist.

Will IL Pay2

A good investment, or, rather the
opportunity to make one, is soon TAX
en- up by the first individual having
the chance to embrace it. This is es-
pecially true where the scheme is one
OF considerable proportions. Smaller
opportunities for financial betterment
are too often overlooked. The farmer
Is too prone to spend his time behind
the plow, or feeding and watering the
live stock, in order to look after the
bigger things on the place, with little
or no consideration Of the chickens,
which he "shoos" out of the horse
trough, and throws at when he sees
one in the corn crib. And yet, there
is nothing on the place that stands him
to more profit for the cost Of her keep
than the little old speckled hen that
he makes stand aside when he is
around. And she, in herself is only
an inferior type Of the profit-yielding
machines that he might have work
ing for him every month, every week,
If not every day in the year.
But, there is another thought, and 1t
is in the line of improvement, and
In an enlargement of the producing
capacity Of the hens on the place, with
but little expense in order to attain
the betterment. We refer here to the
value Of fine, large pure-bred roos-
ter OF any chosen variety, mated with
a dozen ordinary hens now, or very
soon, from which the seasons new
crop of chickens shall come. Let the
man who has no fine fowls now, no
thoroughbreds, select a number of his
best hens, and mate them up in this
way, and use their eggs only, for set
ting purposes this season. 1t would
work a complete revolution In the
poultry on his place in the space of six
short months, and leave him so per-
cent better of in the poultry line for
the next year.
The pullets from 4 mating Of this
kind, would be very much larger at
maturity, than their mothers. They
would be much more vigorous, and
consequently more prolific in eggs al
so. and the chickens sold from such a
mating TO the market, would have at
tained a salsable size younger, and
they would also be more plump and
heavier at an equal age, than any that
might have been raised under the old
conditions. These are points that
cannot be gainsaid
And further, pullets from the kind
OF mating suggested, would make fine
winter layers, because of the new
blood which they embody, being made
up, or grown. from two different
strains OF blood. which always in
sures increased vitality, and it is the
active. healthy hen or pullet, that re.
spends to good care and feeding, with
goodly number Of eggs, even in the
coolest weather.
Right now is good time to take ac-
ZION OF this kind. and turn over a new
leaf IN the poultry yard on the farm
and make a fifty percen; advance in
one season. 1t will surely pay.-H.

If embroidery is used the net must

little at time; the water must not
stop boiling except for a moment.
When using canned vegetables,
make sure that the smell and taste is

Egg on Toast

There is all possible difference in
the ways Of serving so simple dish
as eggs on toast. l have seen a black
ened foundation overspread with a
ragged edged egg that was sent away
untasted, when a golden brown slice
Of toast, small and not, surmounted
with a perfectly round egg, its white
firm and its yolk just covered with a
pinky film, the whole served on a
pretty plate set on a napkined tray,
was eaten Immediately. To poach the
egg, have ready shallow pan-an
omelet or iron frying pan-two-thirds
full Of boiling salted water, allowing
a teaspoonful Of salt to a quart of
water. If one is deft with the fingers
one can stir the water to little whirl-
pool in the centre, then drop the care
fully broken eggs into this. The mo-
ton will wrap the white around the
yolk, making it circular and symmet-
rical. II one is doubtful about pro-
1ciency, break each egg into a cup,
then slip into buttered muffin ring
set in the pan OF boiling salted water.
Cover and remove to the back of the
range. AS soon as firm remove with

and do not break through every time

such need help by simply pulling of
the top part of the shell to give them
air. and then let them come out. This
