have not yet learned just what to
state as the largest profit [ ever made,
though I have been in the bus
mess twenty-seven years. If [ were to
state the largest profit [ ever made from
bunch of good, common market or
utility hens, many good poultrymen
would say [ stretched the facts till they
cracked, and many people who know
little or nothing about poultry would
jump to the conclusion that they could
do as we'll. In writing about making
money from poultry I always leave out
the fancier who deals altogether in high
priced breeding stock, because he OBJ
tains prices that the ordinary poultry
man cannot expect to obtain. The or
binary poultryman who is producing
market stock and eggs is the one [ am
writing for and about. In considering
the poultry business, man should not
take into consideration the fancy prices
obtained by fanciers. He should figure
his products at open market prices. [
thought I had reached the top notch
when I made bunch Of hens yield
profit of $4.68 per head, but I have
learned that was not much over half
way to the top. do not care at present
to state just what profit I made twenty
six hens pay between December I, Iooo
and the same date, 1910, but it was quite
a surprise to me when I balanced the
account.

some skill is required to convert those
possibilities into realities, and such
skill is acquired only by well-directed
working poultrymen I ever knew went
broke-made a complete failure. Put
tering banrupted him. He attempted
to do about everything to and for his
poultry that cranks and faddists advised
in their books. Instead Of working his
hens for profit, he worked them as ad-
vised by "numbskulls," who had bats in
their be1fries. Naturally his expenses
exceeded his receipts and his finish came
quickly. Puttering is the bane of pou1-
try raising. People waste hours of va1u-
able time every day puttering with
things that amount to nothing. To make
the business profitable, one must cut out
the t1nker1ng and do the work in a
workman1ike manner. He must do all
the feeding at once and all the watering
at once He must have his chicks under
complete control or so yarded that there
is no danger of loss. Every chick and
every fowl lost cuts into profit. He
must have every bird where he can see
it at any time of the day he Desires
This does not mean that he must keep
them in coops or little pens, but they
must be confined to limited area,
where they can get plenty of exercise,

BLINDED SONG BIRD.

English Dealers Take sight from
ChRfnnches to Make Them Sing.
The magistrate at Lambath police
court has sentenced Frederick Collins,
laborer of Sultan street, Chamber.
well, to three months hard labor for
cruelty to two chafinches by binding
them, the London Daily Mail says.
s. G. Polhill, who prosecuted on be-
half Of the Royal Society for the Pre-
yention of Cruelty to Animals, said
that the practice of binding was re-
sorted to because birds so dealt with
were supposed to become better song.
sters or warblers. He was sorry to
say the practice had been going on
for many years, but in such secrecy
That this was the first occasion upon
which the society had been in posi-
ton to prosecute. The operation was
carried out with a needle, and was
done skilfully, so as not to burst the
eyeball. The birds adapted themselves
to their blind state in a wonderful
way. They fed and found their water
and Jumped about the cage.
Arthur Wilmot,. one of the societys
inspectors, produced the two blind
birds in court. He purchased them
for l shilling pence from the prison
er at his house, where one room was
full of birds, at least ten of which
were blinded chaffinches. The prisoner
said he himself had blinded them, but
that blinded" was a dangerous word
to use because If he were given
away It would mean three months in
prison for him. He had been at ''the
game" he said, twenty years.
Alexander Pearce, veterinary sur
geon, said that in the birds produced
he came to the conclusion that the
optic nerve and the artery in the
center of that nerve had been severed
by inserting a needle at the bottom
of the eye. This operation paralyzed
the sight and made the bird totally
blind, while leaving the eye to the
casual observer the same as before
the operation. The suffering would be
acute.
The magistrate Ito the prisoner:
You knew what the penalty was. 1t
is three months hard labor.

PLANT NUT-BEARING TREES.

Slow in Maturing, but When They
DO Are Very PrOHtabIe.
The planting of nut-bearing trees IL
matter that cannot be too strongly
encouraged in every section of Amer
lea, especially among farmers and
their children, OF course, 1t cannot
be denied. says Golfers, that such
trees do not mature quickly, bu5 when
they do commence to bear they VIII
be extremely profitable. Again, 1t may
be true that the man who sets them
out may never live to profit by such
returns, yet this same man does not
object to life-insurance policy which
he must die to win,
There are two main factors that
make the planting Of nut-bearing trees
profitable; one is the nuts they viii
bear and the other Is the ultimate
value of the trees themselves
AS to the first consideration. many
authorities express the opinion that
the planting of nut trees ought to BIO

nuts are produced in large enough
quantities to become staple article
of food instead of merely a luxury,
because they can to very consider.
able extent be satisfactorily used in
a mixed diet, to take the place OF
meat, as they really are very nutrt
tious and valuable as a fruit element
Even for use as luxury alone, the
addition of thousands of acres of nut
orchards to our present supply WOULD
be found profitable
The value of the trees themselves
can well be shown by an actual exam
Pile An old farmer in Michigan, halt
a century ago, who was barely man
aging to make both ends meet" had
a son with an eye to the future, whoy
in spite Of ridicule, went ahead and
set out lot of walnut trees on some
rather unproductive low land. Before
the old man died the trees were yield
ing a profitable crop each season and
a few years ago the son himself, now
being gray-haired, sold a furniture
company the entire lot Of trees for
$4,000 Without the trees the farm
itself was scarcely worth $4,000.
The supply of hardwood is nearing
exhaustion and 1t is only matter OF
a few years until trees set out now
become very valuable.
They do not require much care and
no inexpensive asset with greater pos,
sibilities could be left behind for the
coming generation
