GOOD FARM SUGGESTIONS.

Be very careful about giving the
brood mares heavy loads at this sea-
son, but they must have enough gen
tie exercise to keep them in good
form.
Now doth the little louise get in his
work on the chickens. Keep going
the whitewash brush, the powder can
and the kerosene sprayer.
The farm well often sends I'D from
its cool depths the rankest kind of ty-
phoid germs. See that no foul water
drains into it from the surface or
seeps through from outhouses.
Spread large sheet under the plum
tree and jar Mr.. Curculio off his perch.
He turns out over one brood a year
and any fruit that shows his sting
should be burned.
A good time to transfer the bees
from old-fashioned wooden hives into
new ones is when the blossoms are
plentiful.
The poultry water vessels should be
given more attention than ever.
Remember! Do not feed newly
Matched chicks too soon. They will die
from indigestion If you do.
Do you know young chicks often die
from regular chills? Well, they do.
Keep them dry and warm on damp,
chilly days.
Now the calves are coming along,
and to start them right means a good
animal, while neglect means a poor
one. Blood counts, of course, but so
does the feed trough.
1t is a shame to keep a nervous,
high-blooded bull shut up in a dark
stall. Give him a small but secure
lot for exercise.
