Rare Musical Treat.

The Johnson Colbentson concert
Monday evening was rare musical
treat indeed. Anything finer than
Mr.. Johnson's Interpretation of
Grieg's Mountain Tune'' and
"Carnival' or McDowell's exquisite
"To Waterlily" has never been
heard here, and the same can be
said of Colbentson's playing of
Wieniawki's "Souvenir de Moscow
and Musin's popular "Mazurka de
Concert. A full house greeted
the artists, and both responded
generously to calls for encores.
The Willmar band deserves much
credit for arranging this concert.
It is to be hoped that a good many
more such delightful musical treats
may be had under their auspices.
The band netted about $40 from the
concert.
It is probable that both Mr.. COL
bentson and Mr.. johnson will ap-
pear here at some time during the
Assembly.

The poultry house ought to be clean>
ed this month. If there is an earth
floor, at least two inches of the sur
face soil should be removed and re-
placed by clean earth. The earth re-
moved may be used to great advantage
in the vegetable or flower garden.
1t is wise plan to remove all the
fixtures-the nests, the roosts, etc,
and give them a bath of kerosene. At
the same time the house may be thor
oughly whitewashed inside, using the
liquid hot, by preference. 1t is said
that a single female louise may be-
come grandmother to 10000 lice in
eight weeks; so the necessity of unre-
mitted warfare on these pests may be
easily seen.
Rats annually cause the destruction
of many thousands Of young chicks
If it is possible to find their holes the
rodents may be exterminated by sat
urating small piece of cotton with
bisulphide of carbon and dropping it
into the hole, the opening being quick
ly closed to prevent the escape of the
fumes, which settle to the bottom of
the runs killing the pests.

WINGLEss CHICKENS

Not only are we to have hens which
will lay colored eggs, but we are to
have a variety without wings which
can easily be confined anywhere. The
following we publish without further
comment, except to call the attention
of the reader that Illinois also has
finger in this Improvement in hens.
Science Siftings says:
Chicken wings will disappear from
bills of fare when the new wingless
chickens raised by w. A. Bertram of
Illinois become common. He has found
that wings decrease the value of chick
ems in cities and towns by making
their confinement in yards more diff
cult. He conceived the idea of crossing
common breeds with the Wyandottes
and barred Rocks, whose wings are
smaller in proportion to their weight
than those of other chickens. After
several seasons he has produced a fowl
which has only few pin feathers
where nature meant wings to be, and
which cannot jump a fence higher than
two feet. 1t will be easier, Mr.. Ber-
tram says, to fatten chickens which
do not reduce their weight by the ex-
ertion of flying. This will compensate
for putting more flesh on drumsticks
and wishbones, for the ultimate
atrophy and disappearance of the
wings"
Los Angeles herald., 1910-05-08
OF SPECIAL INTEREST

If you are using a brooder, watch
the chicks carefully. If they crowd
together closely they are too cold; If
they stretch out as though exhausted,
too warm, and the heat should be reg
ulated accordingly.
Be sure that the brooder is not
overcrowded. Even those of the largest
size should not contain more than 100
chicks at the beginning, and this num-
ber should be divided at the end of
two or three weeks.
Remember that sunlight and fresh
air are the best remedies for young
chicks, as well as old birds Keep the
youngsters out of doors as much as
possible, and on sunny days open up
the brooder to allow the sunlight to
reach every part.
The floor of the brooder should be
kept covered with litter of clover
chaff, finely cut hay or cut clover, un-
derneath which, preferably, there
should be layer of fine sand.
One advantage of using the brooder
is the greater freedom from lice.
Chicks Matched under hens must be
watched carefully for these pests. If
their heads should be creased lightly,
and an application of grease should
also be made under the wings and
around the vent, using lard, fresh but
ter or Vaseline. The amount needed is
very small; if too much is given the
chicks may be killed. One poultry ex-
pert recommends using two ounces OF
sweet oil to one ounce of oil of sassa-
fras in a machine oiler, which ought
to make the chicken coop smell like a
flower bed.
The incubator should be thoroughly
cleaned and exposed to the sun before
being filled with eggs a second time.

YOUR BUSINESS

Too much care cannot be exercised in
the details that go to build up ones
trade or business. Whether as a
fancier selling eggs and stock or
utility man marketing eggs and poul-
try, the same amount of pains should
be taken. That the products sold shall
always advertise the producer in the
best manner possible, should be ones
constant aim.
When selling eggs for Matching be
sure they are fresh and are from stock
just as represented in ones adver ,ise-
ment or circular. If any eggs are
broken in transit or a poor hatch is re-
ported, the customer should be ap-
peased in some way, for satisfied GUS
toner is the best advertisement one
can have. The eggs should be shipped
in boxes or crates made especially Tor
such purposes. The boxes should be
marked with label, Eggs for Hatch
ing, Handle with Care" and contain
the customers name and address as
well as the shippers, together with the
name of the variety bred. This
awakens interest among the many who
will see or handle the box before it
reaches it's destination and orders may
often be traced to this source.
In shipping stock the coops should
be light and durable and labeled in
the same manner as the egg crates.
Care should be exercised to snip DlruS
as they have been described. Only
strong, healthy, vigorous specimens
should ever be sold, and full value
given for price received. If for any
reason the buyer is displeased with a
bird or birds, allow him to return them
and refund his money. In this way a
reputation for fair dealing will be
made.
In building up a trade with a line of
customers in a village or city one
should strive to outdo his competitor,
not so much in prices asked, but in the
neat and attractive way his eggs and
poultry are marketed. One must be
careful of his own personal appear
ance, his manners, ETC. His team and
vehicles also should be presentable.
The eggs may be marked by rubber
stamp with the date and ones name
or that of his farm or private mark.
They may be delivered in pasteboard
boxes, bearing ones name and ad-
dress, containing a dozen eggs. No
small or undersized eggs should be
marketed, but kept for home use. The
dressed fowls may be neatly wrapped
in paper or packed in box. A neat
business card or a circular illustrating
and describing ones plant and the food
and care exercised 70 secure rich, fresh
eggs help wonderfully to enhance ones
business,

HEREDlrY IN FOWLS

Like begts like, in a sense, but in no
case are the offspring the exact image
of either the sire or dam, or an exact
blend of their immediate parents. In
some cases they reproduce more strik-
ing points of a remote ancestor, in
other cases they appear to possess
points new to the race or strain to
which the offspring happen to belong.
When the development of, say, mann
NAL is studied, it becomes evident that
the more striking characters of the
remote as well as of the more recent
ancestors are represented in all fer
tilized eggs and that in some cases the
character of one of the immediate an
cestors q. e., one of the parents) are
so fully represented that all of the
mental and physical traits are, or ap-
pear to be, faithfully transmitted to
the offspring.
THE BREEDERS CHIEF CONCERN.
With the origin and transmission of
new characters progressive variation)
the breeder is especially concerned
when he is endeavoring to produce a
new variety or breed, but when a
strain has once been established his
chief object is to, if possible, prevent
any arrest in the development.
All the improved breeds have hitherto
been formed by more or less close in
and-in breeding. In-breeding apparent
ly sooner or later leads to loss In size,
vigor and fertility. Hence one of the
chief problems breeders have to face
is how to maintain the size, vitality
and fertility of their improved strain.
Hitherto when flocks and herds have
shown signs of deterioration inter-
crossing has been resorted to, and
Decentralization, which, by inbred
ing, has been practically in allegiance,
is allowed free hand.
TWO GREAT LAWS OF HEREDITY.
According to Cations law of ances-
trail heredity the toning down of the
new characters would, under ordinary
conditions, be rapidly effected by means
of reversion, for if this law holds the
two parents on an average only con-
tribute one-half of the characters of
their offspring, the other half being in
herited from their less immediate an
ceStorS.
Breeders, it need hardly be said,
sometimes find reversion highly bene-
fetal. When a new and desirable vari-
alton appears an effort is at once made
to fix it by in-and-in breeding. In
some cases close interbreeding can be
practiced for generations without do
ing any appreciable harm; but in other
cases it ere long proves hurtful, lead
ing either to loss of size, vigor or fer
tility

We are grieved to read that young
couple have ceased to Mean Everything
to Each Other. 1t seems the wife made
the mistake of asking him, before he
had fed, how he liked her new hat. The
brute replied that it looked like "a fried
WoozIetiff." Something was started
simultaneously. We do not altogether
blame the lady. There seems to us
something peculiarly insulting in that
word Woozletiff.

are 20 be used solely for egg-laying
purposes and an incubator with ca
pacity of 100 eggs has been ordered
from the states From 800 to 1000 eggs
are consumed daily at the Ancon hos
pital and it is estimated that 1900 hens
will be required to meet the demand.

County MAY Bear Fire Losses.

At the coming session of the legisla-
ture there will no doubt be bill intro
duced that will save the state at large
a large amount of money that is now
being paid out to the various townships
throughout the northern section as the
states share in fighting forest fires.
According to the present laws. the
state is compelled to pay individual
townships one-third of the amount Of
the township against forest fires Ths
state pays out each year thousands OF
dollars in this way and in many cases
the property that is protected belongs
to rich lumber interests In the upper
peninsula. Those who are in position
to know claim that it is unjust for the
townships and counties in the lower
part of the state to be compelled to
share this extra burden Of taxation,
from which they derive absolutely no
benefit.
The bill that appears to meet with
the most favor is one that will desig-
nate the county in which the township
is located to bear certain amount OF
the expense.

WASTED ENTERPRISE
IN BREEDING HERDS.
From Hoard's Dairyman:

From Hoard's Dairyman:
1t quite frequently happens that
some rich man who is filed with de-
sire to crafty his pride, will enter up
on the establishment of breeding a
herd of dairy cattle. At once costly
and extrayagant buildings are erected,
fancy prices are paid for animals and
high priced help is employed. The
main object seems to be to spend mon
ey, make spread and then wait for
results that never come. After few
years of this constant drain the owner
tires of it and gives it up to try some
thing else in the way of so-called fancy
farming.
We very much doubt if any practical
good or any advancement to the inter-
ests of any breed ever comes by spurts
of I'll advised vanity like this. Certain
ly the average farmer is not impressed
with it,, for he has no final respect for
anything that does not pay.
The trouble is that the owner has a
Clear. clean cut, practical ideas Of
fal ming or cattle breeding to start
with. Between the poor, ignorant far
mer who lacks sound ideas and the
rich, wasteful man who has the same
lack. there is not so much choice-so
far as fiual survival is concerned, the
odds are with the farmer. An old
cooper once said concerning an appren-
tice who was learning the trade of
him: "Jim, you will never learn to
make barrel; you don't learn to make
jints." 1t is that close, constructive
knowledge of making joints, SO that
the barrel will hold results, that is
lacking, and all the money in the world
will not cure it.

BELLAIRE SEEKS DAMAGES.
Barssa Man is Plaintiff in Suit Against
Lumber Company.

The Houghton county circuit court
was busy Thursday trying the Bellaire
versus Worcester Lumber Co., case In
which the former brings suit against
the lumber company for $4,000. His
basis for the claim is for water over
flow on his land throwing sand on his
which resulted in loss of
fertility to the soil.
Mr.. Bellaire claims that the lumber
company in driving logs down the
Sturgeon river suffered jam of the
timber which threw the water back on
his property. He further claims that
the jam caused the river to leave its
original course and take new one
which cut his land in twain, leaving
several acres of it on the opposite side
of the stream and making it necessary
to build bridge across the stream.
Attorney p. H. O'Brien, assisted by
Attorney Driscoll of lronwood, appear
for the plaintiff, and Attorney Rees is
counsel for the defense.
