Give the Turkeys Wide Range.

1t is a mistake to confne tur-
keys in small enclosures. By ma
ture they are rowing birds and
get their feed over a wide range.
Turkeys should be raised with
turkey hens, because the young
poults with chicken mothers will
not range as widely as they
should.
The young turkeys should be
turned out in the fields just as
soon as the dew is off the grass
and should be allowed to remain
out until dark.
If they are driven into the
poultry house about dark and CIV
en- a feed of grain or dry corn
meal, wet and squeezed dry,
they will, in few days, return
of their own accord.
Of course they must be brought
in every night because if they
are allowed to roost away from
the poultry house they are likely
to be destroyed by animals.
If the young turkeys can be in
duced to roost in a large tree
near the poultry house, they will
do very we'll there. because the
tree is the natural roosting place
for turkeys. We know woman
in Virginia who raised about 200
turkeys every year and they all
roasted in large trees in the yard
at the rear of the house.
An inclined board is placed
against the tree so that the poults
can get into it when they are
quite young. Many of them
continue to walk up the plank to
the first branches even after
they are fully grown, while the
others use their wings to reach
the branches.
Young turkeys cannot thrive
in damp quarters. They should
be we'll ventilated and placed
where they will get plenty of
sunshine.
Young turkeys should never
be hurried or driven home or
quickly forced into the poultry
house. They are deliberate in
their movements and should take
half an hour or more to find their
roosting places and settle down
for the night. Farm World.

Petersburg, III.
To Adair County News:

left Adair county two weeks
ago and came to Louisville, from
there to Bloomington, Ind, and
from there to Patrickburg, Ind,
and from there to Terre Haute;
thence to NATION, ILL.,, and to
Decatur, Rochester, Springfield
and arrived in Petersburg yes
terday morning.
When | left Adair county, we
had been having an abundance
of rain, and the same condition
seemed to prevail all along my
route through Indiana, but crops
seem to be as fine as | ever saw
in the State.
In Kentucky, between Leba-
non Junction and Louisville there
were many fields of corn partly
drowned out, but corn generally
looked fine.
From Louisville to Bloomington
along the rivers, especially White
River, there was considerable
damage to crops by heavy rains,
but Indiana crops as we'll as
Kentucky crops generally looked
promising.
l stopped over a day at Bloom
ington. 1t is the seat of Indiana
University-a fine town of some
II or Is thousand souls. 1t is
said by we'll informed persons
that the morals of the town are
not of the highest order. 1t
holds the record for divorce suits.
Many Kentuckians live i n
Bloomington, among whom the
best known to Adair county pec-
pie probably is M. M. Rhorer,
who was once a resident of Co.
lumbia. He is very wealthy,
he owning a good deal of real
estate in the town.
The most noted towns between
Louisville and Bloomington are
Salem, the birthplace of the Hon.
John Hay, Secretary o f State
ander Mckinley and Roosevelt;
Mitchell, the place where many
of Adair county's boys come to
work at the large Portland Ce-
ment Plant; Bedford, where there
is an enormous amount of stone
querried and shipped to various
parts of the country. The tallest
sky scraper in New York City,

stone.

branch road intersects the main
line, for French Lick and West
