POULTRY HELPS.

1t must not be forgotten that with
out grit even soft foods will be slowly
and poorly digested. Laying hens
suffer more for the want OF grit than
any kind of poultry. The hens cannot
produce many eggs unless they have
grit to assimilate their foods.
AS rule. if hens have plenty of
exercise, there is not much danger of
their eating too much, especially in
cold weather.
There is a disposition to sit around
and sleep in winter. Hens will drop
into that habit if you do not help
them TO stir around and work for their
living.
That is why a scratching shed is
good, and why plenty of litter keeps
the fowls healthy.
Learn to make profit from three
or four hens before you try to get rich
off from three or four thousand.
The method of feeding and kind and
quality of the food determines the
flavor and nutritive value of the eggs.
Keep ground charcoal before the
poultry at all times. 1t is good for
indigestion and corrects sour crop.
Damp cold weather is a severe hard
ship to fowls. Above all things keep
their quarters dry.
Two very important points in rails
ing poultry are to keep plenty of grit
before your fowls and not to over feed
them.
Study the "other fellows" methods
of raising poultry and study them
carefully, but when you come to apply
the knowledge you have gained use
your judgment in appling it to local
The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1910-01-01

Beyond question the farmers of the
country are overlooking good thing
by their failure to go more largely
into the production of eggs and poul-
try and this particularly applies to
the farmer of the Pacific Coast for
nowhere can poultry be more success
fully raised and nowhere else can such
prices be obtained. The cities are in
creasing in population more rapidly
than are the rural districts and the
increased cost Of living, caused there
by, has caused a wonderful increase
in the price OF poultry and eggs, es-
pecially the latter. And there Is no
likelihood of any reduction in these
prices in the future.
The egg crop is about the only one
that cannot be cornered or seriously
manipulated There is no egg pit in
to which some Patten may go and
boost sky high, the price to be paid
by the consumer after the years
product has passed from the produc-
ers hands into those of parasitic spec
ulators 1t is about the only crop
that can be produced as economically
on a moderately small scale as on
large one and in marketing the small
producer has practically the same OPP
portunities as the largest chicken
rancher and If he fails to get equal
prices is generally in fault himself.
Now with these opportunities before
him the farmer may profitably get
busy. He should consider eggs one of
the staple crops and act accordingly.
Instead of keeping handful of scrub
chickens to rustic their living around
the barnyard and the straw stacks and
roost in most any old place he ought
to figure how many fowls he can care
for properly and then prepare to do 1T

in the right way. The setting hens
should be discarded for the most part
when laying than when setting or
mothering chicks and the incubator
and the brooder called into use. Every
farm on the Pacific Coast should have
on it several hundred laying fowls
and when this is the case the state of
Washington will not be obliged to inn
port something like four million dol
lars worth of eggs and poultry an
nually, most of it from midwest
states like Iowa and Kansas, where

An available source of revenue too
often overlooked by the farmer is the
Pekin duck. 1t is hardly necessary to
say that this variety holds first place
in popular favor because of it's size,
beauty and rapid growth. The accom-
panying illustration shows one of the
prize winning Mammoth Pekin ducks
on the duck farm of Gardner & Young,
Kent, Washington.

conditions. Experiments in poultry
culture are sometimes costly the same
as in any other business, bnt the best
results are often gained by expert
mentS.
The utmost care must be given the
early pullets if you wish to have them
lay this winter. Give them a little
extra attention during December.
Keep about six inches of cut straM
or hay on the floor of the poultry
house at all times of the year. Change
this litter often. The laying hens are
entitled to clean bedding and working
material the same as the horses and
COWS.

WHY?
Some time ago the editor of Farm
Poultry was moved to lack up''a writ
er in Coast poultry paper because
he had presumed to discourse mildly
ON the Ignorance of poultry editors. )"
That the berated scribe may have had
some grounds tor his screed is shown
by lengthy editorial in no less. a
publication than the great Inland
Poultry Journal. Follows quotation
from said editorial which editorial,
by the way, is entitled "The - Sys-
tenn The dash here is our own for
the missing name is that of a gentle
man who advertisers that by use of
mis- System $500 may be made from
60 chickens in few mouths. But to
continue with the editorial quotation :
''The editor of the Inland Poultry
Journal has become so much interest
ed in this system, and realizing that
there is only one way to tell what a
thing is worth and that is by trying
it, that we propose to install at our
IL OF Tn ion 1ico Of no
System, and will report from month
to month what our results are. If
chicks can be raised in cold brooder
successfully, then tie greatest stumb-
ling block in tie Way of money MAX
ing, from a commercial standpoint,
has been solved. The hot brooder S
have given fairly good satisfaction,
but there is always some risk in con-
nection with lamps, and if the lamps
can be entirely done away with and
the same results accomplished, then
we have ceI tainly made step in the
right direction.
How is that from one of the great
ones of the poultry (paper) world.
''If chicks can be raised IN cold
brooder successfully''-is there any
one who doesn't know by this time
that the fireless brooder, within
natural limitations, is a pronounced
success?
AS matter of fact the business of
chicken raising has progressed SO far
beyond the knowledge of the average
Eastern poultry editor that now chick
ems are being successfully raised in
the greatest poultry center of the
country without broOders at ALL
Fact is, no great amount of up-to-
late news of actual chicken raising
appears in most of these journals
which are printed more as means of
disseminating advertising than for the
pu1po of furnishing their readers
with real live news about the business.
1t is true that from time to time
something is printed about the Rhode
Island chicken district doubtless be-
cause IT lays in the path of the poul-
try editor when he is on his way from
the poultry show at Boston to the

1t is not doubted that the affection
existing between Crippen and Miss
Leneve was sincere and unselfish
from the beginning. Although he

London, Nov. 26-Ethel Clare Lee
neve was found today in little coun-
try town where she is hiding under
an assumed name, and both as a trib-
ute to DIR. Crippens' memory and as
revelation of the affection that exist
ed between herself and the executed
man she consented to the publication
of the Doctors last love letter to her
It was written on the eve of Grip
pens execution and her chief rea-
son for giving it publicity is that it
shows the falsity of the alleged con
fession."
THAT confession" said Miss Lee
neve, was a cruel falsehood. DR..
Crippen all along declared his inno-
cence to me and l have been terribly
shocked to read the lying statement.
1t is utterly and completely false"
Another point was brought out by
a perusal of Crippen's farewell cores
pondence. Crippen never married

ago there was a child born to them.
This fact has not been commented on
but there is no question of its truth.

part as follows:

A Chinese Trick.

The Chinese are past masters IN the
art Of trickery. and some OF their
tricks are very ingenious. One is a
method by which they can make a
postage stamp do service almost In
definitely. The sender OF the letter
passes over the stamp some paste
which In appearance is not unlike the
gum at the back Of "A stamp. When
the stamp Is obliteratcd 1t takes the
impression. but 1t is not even skin
deep" The receiver OF the letter must
be a confederate. and he passes
damp sponge over the stamp, This
removes the paste and with 1t the
postal mark. SO until the stamp Is
worn out it can be used over and over
again.

The closing exercises OF the Remnant
school took place last Friday. Quite a
number OF the friends Of the school were
present to listen TO the songs and recita-
tons of the children, which were inter-
esting and we'll rendered. Then follow
ed talk on japanese customs and man
ners, we'll illustrated by numerous ar
ticles used in the homes Of that quaint
people. After short recess, very de-
licious refreshments were served, OF
which all partook beautifully. The
teachers rewarded the pupils who had
made distinctions by punctual attendance
and good lessons with suitable presents.
The aim of the school has been to do
thorough work, and many OF the children
have made commendable progress. Al
ter very pleasant afternoon, farewells
and good-byes were said and friends,
children and teachers parted, hoping to
meet again in September. X.
