Raise Better Poultry.

Why not better the quality of the
flock this season by more careful Sc
lection? Don't use eggs from the
entire flock for Matching, but make
up a breeding pen of your best hens
and use only their eggs. Twenty
hens in a colony house about 7x9
out in the orchard. with yard about
fifty feet square, will furnish a set
ting of eggs per day during the sea-
son, which is about all the average
farmer will care to use. Keep two
males for this pen. changing every
few days. T he right kind of cock
bird is too unselish for his own
good and will call all the hens to
eat all the good things while he
goes hungry; shutting him up for a
few days and feeding him will keep
him in better condition.
This plan also prevents fighting
and will mean more fertile eggs.
Weight. vigor. appearance of the
flock. laying qualities, all will be
greatly improved and the infertile
eggs produced by the balance of the
flock will keep better during warm
Weather, and will be much better
for putting away next winter.

Answered by Farm and Field.

What do you think is best to
feed to hogs in connection with
corn mangels, rutabagas or the
Colo. Answer-Of these roots the
Golden Tankard mangels would
prove the most satisfactory although
they are no more nutritious than the
carrots but are more prolific. We
would prefer the half-sugar stock
beets to either OF them. The ruta-
hagas are the heaviest yielders and
are good for thirty tons the acre
but do not contain the fattening ele-
ments of the other roots and are
more difficult to handle. You ought
to include alfalfa in the ration If 1t
can be grown there.
What should be done with an
orchard that had lots of woody aphis
last fall but was not sprayed? H. r.
NJ, Vernal, Utah Answer-Right
now is the time to remove the earth
around the crowns of the trees for
distance of about two feet. Put
in from four to six pounds of to-
bacco dust or double this amount OF
stems and cover again. then irrigate
II tobacco cannot be obtained. use
soap of the ordinary strengths In
kerosene emulsion or whale oil In
its space. pouring In liberal guam
tity. The woolly aphis hibernates
around the roots and treatment at
this time of the year is far more
effective than II left until the pests
become active. For the aphis on
the body OF the tree spray with time
sulnhur solution before the buds
swell.

VALUE OF FRESH AIR.
BY BENJAMIN FRANKLIN.

1t is recorded of Methuselah,
who. being the longest liver, may
be supposed to have best preserved
his health, that he slept always in
the open air. for when he had lived
five hundred years an angel said
to him, arise Methuselah and build
thyself house, for thou shalt live
five hundred years longer And
Methuselah answered and said; III
l am to live but five hundred years
longer it is hardly worth while to
build house. | will sleep in the
air as l have been used to do"
Physicians after having for ages
contended that the sick should be
given fresh air sparingly. have at
length discovered that 1t may do
them good. 1t is therefore to be
hoped that they will In time, dis
cover likewise that II is not hurt
full to those in health and that we
may then be cured of the acripho-
bia that at present distresses weak
minds and makes them choose to
be stifled and poisoned rather than
leave open the window of bed
chamber or put down the glass of a
coach. Confined air, when saturated
with perspirable matter will not re-
ceive more, and that matter must re-
main in our bodies and occasion
diseases.

Hygiene of the Foot of the Horse.

The teeth and the feet of the
horse should receive special atten-
ton, for without these in good
healthy condition the animals use
fulness is in a large measure de-
stroyed.
Many horses are so vicious or ir-
ritable that they will not allow any
one to examine their feet, to say
nothing OF cleaning, trimming or
shoeing them.
The colt at pasture should have
its feet cared for as closely as the
matured animal. in order that he
may grow to maturity with feet in
healthy condition. The foot of
the colt grows so rapidly that the
wall will often project far below
the sole and cause it to split and
form quarter and toe cracks. 1t is
better to use pair of hoof cutters
and rasp, and have the feet pared
evenly and avoid unbalancing the
animal.
Any horse used on the road or
street should be shod, but the shoes
ought to be changed every five or
six weeks and the feet trimmed in
order that the natural growth of
the wall may be removed. If the
shoes are improperly allowed to re-
main on the feet for two. three or
four months, and in some cases a
year without changing them, the
wall becomes excessively long and
grows over the shoe. Pressure be-
comes too great on the sole and bars
resulting in corns, bruised soles
and lameness.
A hoof hook should be included
among .the equipment of well regu-
lated stable. The feet of the horse
should be cleaned every morning be-
fore he leaves the stable. The hoof
hook will remove all litter. pebbles.
or anything that may have become
lodged in the foot. This precaution
may prevent injury to the sole or
sensitive structures of the foot. II
the feet become very dry. pack them
daily for week with some form of
clay. Then apply lard to the wall,
to which may be added pine tar
and rosin. This ointment holds the
moisture in the feet and prevents
further evaporation.
