Fowls dislike a fI1thy house.
Give flower plants lots of room.
The British highway is far superior
to the American.
II Is quite possible to get fair crop
of cane after earfy oats
Remove the suckers from fruit
trees as fast as they appear.
Light shining on potatoes colors
them and Injuries the flavor
To retain soil moisture a loose
mulch Of between two or three inches
is necessary.
Undertaking and overlooking are
both wasteful as is also feeding one
article of diet.
A pig can be raised by the hand
method as easily as calf, II the same
pains are taken with 1t.
Pounds Of meat or amount and quail.
ity of other products that an animal
will provide are what count.
II SOW proves good breeder, there
is no reason why she should not be
kept as long as she produces strong
pigs.
To the intelligent corn grower
weedy field spells a shiftless farmer
who is fooling with his chances of sue
cess.
Do not allow any fruit to ripen on
berry plants set this season. Prema-
ture fruit-bearing stunts the growth Of
the plants. -..-.- .
The man who raises pigs ought to
have a field of peas into which they
can be turned just before the peas
become hard.
The richest color of the cream is
when It first rises to the surface, and
If churned in that condition the butter
will be yellow.
You will have to spray with kero-
sene emulsion to reach the cabbage
lice. Be sure to get 1t on the under
side of the leaves.
Corn has become good crop,
whether hogs are high or low, but it is
not a good plan to plant more corn
than can be well tended.
Cocks should not be allowed to run
with the hens during moulting, SO that
as the number of hens not moulting
decreases they should be confined with
the cocks.
Anyone who will knowingly sell milk
from diseased COW well deserves
the epithet of criminal, for his act is
nothing short of crime. To sell filthy
milk or butter is scarcely less repre-
hensible.
The trouble with great many poul-
try keepers is that they think they
can fly before they are really able to
walk. Take time to learn the busi-
Ress. !3y and by the flying will come
easy enough
There is some difference In the cost
of corn whether it is "hogged down"
by sheep and lambs In the field, or
high priced help husks It and hauls 1t
to the station, and high priced
railroads ship it to feeding yards.
1t is law of nature that all plants
must have a season Of rest from ac-
tive growth. In the tropics this is
done in the dry season. No, plant
can be forced into continual growth
without weakening it and finally kill
ing it,
Inc COCheTelS WHICH are 70 De
marketed should, of course, be fed
a more fattening ration than the pull
lets, and those which are to be used
as breeders should be kept from the
pullets until about six weeks before
the eggs are wanted for Matching.
AS soon as the cockerels get old
enough to pay attention to the pull
let's they begin fighting and the
weaker birds are crowded out and
don't get their share Of feed. For
this reason the sexes should be sepa-
rated so as to allow full and rapid
development.
There is no better way to warm
hen up in the morning than to scat
ter some warm wheat around in a
good clean layer Of straw and let them
work hard for 1t. They will get right
down to business as soon as it is fair
