A POULTRY DEPARTMENT.

About two years ago the Iowa Agri-
cultural college officials believing that
the poultry interests Of the state had
not been receiving the attention that
they should, considering their econon-
ic importance to the state, established
a poultry department and placed an
expert in charge. Thus early very def
inite and gratifying results are being
secured. An accurate record which
has been kept on the hens In the ex-
perimental flock shows that during the
first year one of them laid 210 eggs.
while the same hen has produced 104
eggs In the first 204 days Of her sec
ond year At 20 cents dozen the
years product of this one hen yielded
a net profit Of SO after deducting S1.20
for feed and care. While none OF the
other hens has made so good q show
ing, the records all are making In
egg production are exceptional. The
bill Of fare for the day consists Of
breakfast of corn which n covered
with four or FIVE inches Of litter and
has to be dug out, at noon feed Of
wheat and oats which has to be work
cd for in the same way. and at night
warm mash Of ground grains. vegeta-
bles and seasoning fed in troughs.
Fresh water and milk are given daily.
while n supply Of charcoal, grits, oys-
ter shell and meat scraps is accessi-
BILE. In view Of the fact that the poul-
try products Of the country are worth
annually between $000.000.0O0 and
S700,O00,000. this recognition Of the
Importance Of the industry by state
agricultural colleges Is not out Of
place

An investigation into the causes Of
the death cf a good many trees in or
chards in some sections OF Colorado
has led the state college horticulturists
to the conclusion that the trees In
question have died ms result OF ar
senical poisoning, the supposition be-
ing that the poison has been absorbed
into the system of the tree through
its roots This points to further the
ory contrary to the generally accepted
opinion-nameiy. that arsenites are
soluble, settle into the soil and in such
form are taken up into the trees
through the root system. Should this
Buppositlon prove with further inves.

fertility are the. well nigh unavoidable
accompaniment Of type Of extensive
farming IN which so much land Is
farmed that IL can only be half done

the only thing that will bring about a
change for the better is an advance In
land values, rentals and taxes, which
