Practical Poultry Points.

Feed raw vegetables, cabbage,
beets and turnips to the poultry in the
morning, or at noon, but not at night.
Dry and warm feed is better after
noontime.
II is a mistake to think that hen
should scratch all the time for liv.
ing. She needs time to rest, as well
as other two-legged creatures, and
corn should be flung to her each day.
1t is a mistake to keep chickens of
different age together. March pullets,
If properly cared for, will begin laying
In November. Beside this considera-
ton, the younger chicks are robbed
by the older ones, and thus prevented
from thriving as they should.
II the combs of hens turn pale,
change the feed and give them good
ventilation. Also give them out Of
door exercise.
Sort your eggs we'll before market
ing. Wash dirty eggs. A few dirty
eggs will spoil the looks of whole
batch. Eggs that have been shipped
by express should not be set until
they have rested day.

AROUND The FARM
Feeding the Work Horses.

Horses that are worked steadily are
likely to have good appetites and good
digestive powers, writes William Pur-
due in the American Cultivator. They
must have them II they are to do their
best. Such animals require liberal
feed, yet they must not be overfed. A
good many farmers, with plenty of
feed on hand. feed too much rather
than too little. About two pounds Of
grain and hay per day for each 100
pounds of weight will keep a horse
in good working condition. even
when the work required is heavy.
Thus twelve pounds Of oats or this
amount Of oats and corn mixed and
twelve pounds of good timothy hay
will serve a 200 pound horse one day.
When the work is light a less proper.
ton will answer.
For long time oats and timothy
hay have been considered the horse
mans standard ration. A ration com.
posed of these two feeds has always
been considered a safe one, which 1t is
Oats are the best all round grain for the
work horse, yet through the corn belt,
where corn is the principal crop, 1t is
the principal grain fed to many horses
and with quite satisfactory results. A
goodly number of farmers, however,
feed a ration composed Of half corn
and half oats, and this Is better than
either all corn or all oats. At any rate,
this gives the horses a variety of feeds,
and l think that no mistake can be
made in feeding such a ration. Some
bran. shorts. oilmeal, cottonseed meal,
or gluten feed should be used to vary
the ration. Horses greatly relish a
variety of feed and will do better on a
varied ration.

PRESERVING Eqqs.

A great many experiments in pre-
serving eggs with water glass have
demonstrated that when properly done
1t is one of the best methods In use.
Water glass is silicate of sodium and
1t may be purchased at any good drug
store at from 80 cents to $l.2O per gal
Ion.
Prepare the solution by using water
that has been boiled and cooled to or
binary temperature. To fifteen quarts
of water add one quart of water glass.
Put the eggs in clean jar, one that
has been well washed and thoroughly
scalded, and pour liquid enough over
them to cover the eggs completely.
Use only perfectly fresh eggs. No
method can keep an egg good that has
already commenced to spoil. Do not
wash the eggs before packing them.
Keep the jar in a cool, dark place.
Each days gathering OF eggs are bet
ter II packed Immediately. Success
depends on doing everything in con-
nection with it right and at the prop
or time.

Glover Pasture For Pigs.

Pasture is not only the cheapest feed,
but the best, for brood sows and lit
ters. The pigs need the exercise that
a run on pasture gives, as well as the
succulent feed that the pasture af-
fords Grain is high in price COM
pared with that Of few years ago,
and one must make use Of the not only
cheaper but better feeds that a good
pasture affords. An acre of clover will
make as much meat as an acre of corn
where used judiciously and costs far
less to grow.
"Pigs in clover" is an expression
which now comes to mean something
for nearly nothing If you have a clo-
yer pasture for your pigs this summer
just try sowing Dwarf Essex rape
right on top Of it and let the pigs
tramp it in. 1t will come up just
about the time the clover begins to get
dry and tough and will make excellent
late pasture. Later, If it gets too big,
Just run a mower over it and cut 1t
back. Both it and the clover will come
up again fresh and green in a few
days.-Forest Henry In Northwestern
Agriculturist.

Grease Extractor.

A grease extractor Is a very useful
thing to keep for removing stains from
dresses. 1t can be made by beating
together in a mortar one-fourth pound
each Of soft soap and fuller's earth
Form the paste into cakes and let them
dry. When wanted for use moisten
the greasy spot with water, rub it with
the cake and allow the latter to dry
on. Then rub the spot with sponge
and warm water.
To clean paint that is not vanished
take flannel and squeeze nearly dry
out of warm water and dip In little
whitening. Apply to the paint, and
with a little rubbing 1t will instantly
remove grease, smoke or other stains.
Wash with warm water and rub with
soft cloth. 1t will not injure the
most delicate color, makes it look like
new and lasts much longer than If
cleaned with soap and water.

The Farm Team.

From our experience and observa-
ton, If we were selecting the farm
team, we have decided that the medi-
um sized horse, rather blocky in build,
is best adapted to the general farm
work. While others might be willing
to differ with US, we feel that a few
reasons why we would make this
choice would not be out of place here.
We would choose the medium size
and the blocky build because these an
imals are generally more active than
those that are heavier in weight. They
often walk faster, and when turning
at the end of the furrow or corn row
they do so with less danger to them
selves, with greater ease and in less
time than does the horse that is extra
large Then when used on soft ground
they will often endure more, as they
do not sink into the moist soil as
much as the heavier animal.-Amer-
ican Cultivator.

An implement for removing the caps
of glass fruit jars when they stick has
been invented by a Pennsylvania man
and will be found a great convenience
by housewives. A strong metal band
formed into a circle the circumference
of jar top is attached to cutter
blade, which has a handle at one end.
The band, which has a free end and
acts as a spring. is fitted around the
cap of jar and the cutter blade In
serted between the cap and the rub
ber band that encircles the mouth of
the jar to make the latter air tight.
The knife Is then moved around the
jar till 1t has loosened the cap sufi-
ciently to permit its removal. The ad-
mission of air through the path of the
knife is enough to accomplish this. and
it will then be easy to unscrew the
cap. This method is an improvement
over other methods whereby the re-
calcitrant cap is gripped with an i'm
plement. which In some cases results
in the breaking Of the jar.

Horses Need Exercise.

Horses require more exercise and
will suffer more for lack of exercise
If kept confined than any of the other
farm animals. Every horse owner has
noticed how when let out of the stable
and turned into a pasture the horse
that is in good health will run and
caper around the field for consider
able time before beginning to eat.
This clearly proves that the animal
Graves exercise. Other farm animals
require some exercise, but none ever
shows a desire to exercise 80 violently
as the horse. So, no matter what the
season, the horses should have plenty
of exercise
