by feeling of languor and fatigue

danger of dropsy, Bright's Disease, or
diabetes. Any one of these symptoms
is warning enough to begin treating

proves fatal.

state official who does not pledge him
self to vote for legislation which will
put the farmers on a more equitable

The Poultry Yard.

Perfect cleanliness from now on
will cut short the louise crop of June.
If you stamp date on your eggs,
sell them before the date gets old.
Keep your meat scraps where they
will not get stale and sour. Fresh
feed is what makes healthy hens.
Feed little and often. and be careful
about overfeeding. This is the great
secret in feeding brooder chicks.
Danish the fighting stock from your
pens. Give them a place by them
seves. That is the best kind of arbi-
tration.
Cook some beans or peas, mix them
With wheat bran and fed twice week
and see if you don't get lot more
eggs.
Have everything convenient. Steps
saved in the care of poultry will
mean that much less labor. Labor
costs money.
When the brooder chicks seem very
thirsty, wild for water, let them
drink and feed very lightly while 50
feverish.
Many a setting of eggs has been
spoiled by making the nest on the
floor where the wind can come up
through the cracks under the old
mother hen.
April is a good month to hatch
goose eggs. 1t is also an excellent
time for getting out ducklings. Stock
Matched now will be best for next
years breeding
Wet. cold. feet do not do your hens
any good. Chills them ana keeps
them from doing their level best, and
that is the only thing that will salts.
fly you and me.
Don't be in a hurry to remove the
hen and her brood from the nest.
The tender little ks need warmth
more than they do feed for the first
twenty-four hours.
Does that old hen lay? Try this il
she does not: Feed her all the chopped
clover she will eat, with an ounce OF
lean meat every day. If there is any
lay in her that will bring it out.
