A LITTLE FLOCK WELL CARED
FOR.

Messrs. Editors: years ago
the chicken fever" struck me, and
| ordered several sittings of eggs, OF
the Rhode Island Red variety, with
which 1 was more than pleased.
Each year l add new blood to my
flock so as not to inbreed.
After the first year | sold all the
mixed birds, and now have nothing
but a yard full of pretty R. l. Reds,
which keep the egg-basket filled to
the brim. Have taken off four broods
and have thirteen more hens sitting.
[ had the incubator fever" too,
about three years ago, but my good
husband and mother would not lis
ten to my incubator cries., so |
very unwillingly gave it up, but you
see the Red hens are good mothers,
and we are getting along real nicely.
| am not very successful with my
Bronze turkeys, as l only raised 10
out of 35 little ones, but will try
again this year.

ANOTHER GOOD RECORD.

Messrs. Editors: l have 70 Barred
Plymouth Rock hens and late pull
lets. Since January 1, 1911, I have
collected 4,413 eggs from them and
they have had only ordinary care.
The 80 chickens, counting the cocks,
only receiving one gallon of Cyphers'
scratch food night and morning
with green feed of some kind near
ly every day, with perhaps a gallon
of buttermilk occasionally, if we
have it to spare. During March,
with ten of more hens sitting or go
ing with chicks l got 1853 eggs,
and in April 1,136 eggs. These
chickens are yarded all the time.
| have kept the Barred Plymouth
Rocks for seven years and am very
much pleased with them.

definitely settled that the poultry as
sociation will combine with the Mis-
issippi-Alabama Fair and hold their
poultry exhibition on the fair
grounds in conjunction with the big
"Bi-State" Fair. The poultry asso-
citation will duplicate the prizes offer
ed by the fair association in this de-
partment. AS consequence, the
amount of cash premiums given at
the Mississippi-Alabama Fair next
fall for poultry will be larger than
at any other fair in the State.

class fruit, taken along with other
food at meal time. Tree fruits re-
quire some years, of course, to come
into bearing and cost considerable
labor-in these days of bugs and
worms-to make them of first quail
ity. Still, the time and expense that
farmer gives to the work of pro-
ducing these fruits l consider we'll
spent.
But I am writing this to call to
the attention of every family on a
little farm in our country, from
Maryland to Texas, the fact that
the small fruits-the strawberry in
particular-can be grown so cheaply,
both as regards expense for plants
and also labor in planting and culti-
waiting that no man who cares for
his family should allow himself to
deprive those of his household of the
benefits that come from a liberal use
OF this wonderful fruit, both in the
raw state and as canned product.
The strawberry is perhaps the
easiest fruit to grow in the whole
list, and yet l will wager that not
one small farmer in twenty in our
territory has patch for the use of
his family this spring, when by the
expenditure of SIS, IS months ago for
plants, preparation of land, fertilizer.
and cultivation he could have pro-
vlded for bushels of them. 1t re-
quires only little more time to
plant certain amount of land with
strawberries than would be required
to plant the same amount of land in
tobacco; the fertilizer bill is no more
and the work of cultivation is much
less while the land growing the ber-
rles will produce double or treble
what it would were it growing to-
bacco And the beauty of the
strawberry is that it will grow in al
most every section and on practical
ly every farm.
Now is the time to make prepara-

gia peaches have acquired a national
reputation for beauty and quality
Every one has heard of the great
strawberry fields of the coast coun-
try. But in spite of all this testi-
mony as to the adaptability of the
whole South country for the produc-
tion of choice fruits, the average
farmer of our country has less of
these luscious, hea1th-giving pro-
duets than men of his calling located
in any other of the humid sections
of the country.
