devices used for dragging the soil the
drag shown in the diagram is prob

but is all wrong for soils properly

c is a draft chain and may be fastened
where shown or farther back, while
Xxx are two short boards nailed in place
for the driver to stand on. The latter
pieces, Xxx, should not be too wide, as
they might cause the soil to collect
and pack underneath. The plank a

Poultry Pointers.

Forcing the mott by starving the
hens is not considered a good practice.
Clean the coops thoroughly before
you put them away. Get them under
cover, too, if you can. They will last
so much longer
Two parts lard and one part turpen-
tine will often cure 'limberneck' in
the afflicted bird If discovered in time
and the remedy given promptly.
Ducks intended for breeding should
be separated from those intended for

they can have plenty Of range and
swimming water.
Cut hay into about one inch lengths
and pour enough hot water on it near

night and feed in the morning. Feed
about three times a week during win
ter.
Warm wheat for breakfast makes
the Biddies shell out the eggs.
Fresh air is all right for the hens,
but not when it is sifted through knot:
holes and cracks between the boards.
Meat meal and beef scrap are rich
n protein and mineral matter and es
pecially desirable for melting hens
and pullets kept for layers. Where
insects are not abundant meat in
some form should supply a portion Of
the rations Of laying hens.
If the roosts in the henhouses are
high the heavier birds are almost sure
to suffer from bruised feet, commonly
known as bumblefoot. This Is caused
by jumping from the roost to the hard
floors

IDEAL METHOD OF TREATING SEED CORN.
[From bulletin of United States depart
ment of agricultural
the precaution mentioned above was
unnecessary. Many farmers believe
that their autumns are so dry that
such care is superduous. Seed corn in
every locality gathered at ripening
time will be benefited by drying as
suggested. If left in the husk long
after ripening it may sprout or mil
dew during warm, wet weather or be-
come infested with weevils.
The vitality of seed is often reduced
by leaving it in sack or In pile for
even day after gathering. During
warm weather, with some moisture in
the cobs and kernels, the ears heat or
mildew in remarkably short time.
The best possible treatment immedi-
ately after gathering is shown In the
illustration. Binder Irvine will sup
port fifteen or twenty ears on string
arranged in the manner illustrated.
Ordinarily the best place to hang these
strings Of ears is in an open shed or
loft
Permanent seed racks, with a sepa-
rate compartment for each ear, are
more convenient than the use Of binder
Irvine, and when they are located in a
dry, breezy place the ears dry success
fully.
