Poultry Notes.

Hens like clean nests. Remember
this all the time.
The henhouse should always be To-
Gated on a high, well drained spot
Fresh air is as essential for the
chickens as for any of the stock upon
the farm.
Many Of the 50 called diseases in the
poultry yard may be traced to unclean
conditions.
To get the best results from a flock
Of chickens you should know their
needs. The only way TO do this is to
study the birds regularly.
The best way TO start In the poultry
business Is 10 get few hens and set
them on good eggs. These should al
ways be bought from reliable breed
er and should be from pure bred stock.

This is the simplest but one of the
best of overback games. The play
ers stand behind each other, formin!;
a long line. The first player in the line
makes u back, the second leaps over
and makes a back a few feet farther
on. the first one still remaining down
The third player goes over the first
one, then the second, and in his turn
makes back a few feet beyond the
second one, and this is continued un-
til all the line are down. Then the
boy who made the first back starts
again and leaps each of the backs and
makes another back beyond the end
of the line, the next player follows
suit, and thus continually advancing
line of backs is formed. The whole
fun of this game lies in it's being play
ed with spirit.

CARING FOR The
YOUNG GU|NEAS.
Fowls May Be PrOiitabIy HatChed
as Late as August.

The guineas are usually hatched I'M
der chicken hens. A good sized Wyan
dotte hen can cover from seventeen to
twenty guinea eggs. We usually set
two hens at the same time and when
the guineas are hatched all of them are
given to one hen, and the other hen is
either broken up or set again, writes
4 correspondent of Farm and Fireside.
The hen and the young guineas are
put in box where they will keep dry,
and the young guineas cannot escape
or get lost.
They are kept in confinement until
the guineas are week or ten days old.
Then, if the weather is pleasant, they
are turned out during the day and
allowed to depend largely upon them
selves to secure food. While the
guineas are young they are given a
little hard boiled egg, some bread
crumbs or coarsely ground meal fed
dry. They are given water to drink
also some sweet milk occasionally.
In rainy weather keep the little
guineas in dry place, as they are very
tender while young and cannot stand
much cold. They should be gathered
to the shelter before any hard rains.
Last summer we intrusted thirty
seven young guineas to one hen, and
she did well by them. After the
guineas are four or five weeks old
they are able to care for themselves Sc
far as the food is concerned, but they
will continue to run with the mother
hen until they are nearly grown.
If provided with a suitable roosting
place they will come in every evening.
going out early in the morning in
search of bugs and worms and staying
until late. They will grow fat and
plump and will care for themselves un-
til winter sets in, shutting off their sup
ply OF food from thefields. Do not hatch
young guineas until warm weather
June and July are good months for the
young guineas to hatch, although they
will grow to marketable size by Christ
mas If hatched as late as August.

Game of Sergeant.

One child is chosen for the sergeant,
the others representing the soldiers.
When the sergeant says ''Do this" all
the players must initiate him. How
ever, when he says "Do that" they
must take no notice. If a soldier
makes a mistake he drops out. The
