In A recent analysis OF a commercial
report It developed that % per cent Of
the failures were in establishments
where the capital invested was less than
5000 The causes OF failure in these
cases were various but they are given
here in the order Of their Importance
or rather IN the order Of their frequency.
First of all was incompentency- Too
many men opened ID without proper
knowledge Of the business in which they
were engaged Just 90 per cent OF the
farmers who went into business failed,
showing that their lives had been spent
in the wrong environment
Next in order came lack Of capitsI.
Men had the experierce arr ability but
not money enough TO tfCe them over the
waiting time till their business was
established
Third came the unwise granting OF
credits The new man is so anxious TO
do business that he VIII take chances
the older merchant would turn down
promptly.
From these important three causes.
the failures scaled down IS follows:

HOW TO MAKE A FIRELESS
COOKER.
Continued from Page 419.)

Continued from Page 419.)
tack first the upper edge of the mar
row strip, and then the lower, max
ing sure that the large piece of cloth
holding the pockets is very taut.
Quite an important part of the
construction of the cooker is the pill
lows. Cut four squares of cloth
14x15 inches. Stitch into each two
squares strip of cloth inches wide,
which will give them square edges to
fit together and fill the space above
the kettles. Do not stuff the pillows
too hard.
The cover of this box must close
tight, so great care must be taken in
fitting the hinges. Two hasps or
hooks hold the cover down. 1t should
take some pressure to crowd down
the pillows.
The box may be made of any size
and to contain, according to the
amount of cooking to be done, any
where from to 10 spaces for ket-
ties.

When chicks are Matched | with

grit, but no feed, no matter how they
chirp, until l am satisfied that they
have absorbed all of the egg yolk.
The first feed is half-and-half mix
ture of one of the standard chick
feeds and oatmeal. They usually get
the first feed in the morning, and FIVE
or six hours later / fill up their fat
feed trough. All this talk about not
overlooking may be all right for
chicks that are kept in Axe runway.
but | don't want any OF 1t in mine.
1t is possible to overfeed old birds.
but young stock. never.
When the youngsters are old
enough to go on the perch they are
placed in open-front houses, the hop
per feeding kept up. and my young
sters never fail to develop into early
layers. and both pullets and cocker
els are vigorous and strong.
The houses are scraped out clean
once a week and air-slaked lime
scattered on the floor. Every two
weeks the perches are wet with kerr
osene oil. II Is put on In the late af-
ternoon SO that the chickens shanks
will get the benefit of the fumes
from the oil. which prevents scaly
leg. A bed OF loose sand In the
corner OF the yard provides the dust
ing place. and when the bird can
dust itself at Will. IL can keep the lice
under control. So. by keeping the
houses fairly clean. using oil on the
perches and lime under them. pro.

(Answer by Prof. w. F. Massey.)
Ii the weather turns off hot and
dry you must not NOW SO closely or
SO often as in showery weather. But
by moving often in good weather
and letting the cut grass lie to decay
and disappear. you will do the best
thing for dry weather, and the dead
grass will mulch it. Many wait till
the grass is too long and then have
to rake it off. Some judgment in
this matter of moving must be used
and little ordinary common sense.
Top dressing in growing weather
will do good. but not in dry weather.
Some nitrate of soda may be sprinkl-
ed over when the leaves are perfect
ly dry, and this will encourage
growth. Lime is good to apply late
in fall. Rake it in we'll.

their existence. The existence n,

days with us, it behooves the poultry
breeder to be careful with his stocb
in regard to their health. Like
every other breeder who has been al
it Tor four or five years, l have been
through the mill, and found ou'
from experience that prevention is
the best cure for all diseases of the
feathered tribe.
Once upon a time l kept sort Of
chicken hospital. but after a year OF
SO l found out that it was losing
game to doctor chickens, SO now
just keep the Ratchet good and
sharp, and when a bird doesn't yield
quickly to simple treatment, Of
comes his head.
The great bugbear for the spring
and summer-hatched chicken is sore
head. There are any number Of
cures for it. but l don't like Il
monkey with sore-headed chick, SO
instead Of doctoring. l prevent Il
thus: The first week in April ant
thereafter all summer take one
pound of EPSON salts, dissolve it in
a half-gallon of hot water and ado
sufficient wheat bran to this water te
make crumbly mash. BY this time
the water will have cooled enough
to give to the chickens, this amount
being for 100 head of stock of al
sizes.
l give this as the morning feed
all they will clean up, and every bird
on the place gets its share. | have
followed this plan for the past three
years and am never troubled with
sorehead.
If at any time my little chick,
show signs Of loose bowels, / put
little Venetian red in their drink
ing water. just enough to make tn,
water fairly red. and keep it befor,
them one day. Next day put abou
twenty drops tincture of iron to eacl
quart of their water. The red cor
reefs the bowel trouble and the irol
strengthens the little fellows. II
two or three days they are chasing
around as il nothing had ever hap
pened.
Cholera is another dreaded dis
ease among poultry keepers, but
doubt if such thing really exists
Cholera, in my estimation, is a com
bination OF indigestion and filth
principally indigestion brought OF
from the lack Of good sharp grit. |
the birds are not supplied with tn,
means to grind their food, the foo.
cannot be handled properly by then
after they have eaten it, and prett,
soon you have a sick hen. This. il
combination with filthy quarters ant
vermin, is, in my estimation, tn,
much-dreaded cholera.

place two years ago, and his chick,

(Answer by Prof. w. F. Massey.)
TO grow fine chrysanthemum
flowers, you need moist and fertile
soil. That is. soil that will retain
moisture in dry weather from having
plenty of vegetable matter in it. The
best fertilizer is plenty of well decay
ed COW manure. thoroughly mixed
with the soil. Then you want a sun
ny situation for the bed. You can
grow the finest in the open ground,
and in the fall. as the flowers expand,
put a shelter Of cotton cloth over
the bed, high enough to walk under,
and of course. pinch out the surplus
buds. AS the buds expand and little
before, an application of liquid ma
nurs once week will help to make
large flowers.
