the flock in punches Of twenty-five or

ers, capons produce the highest priced
chicken meat on the market. They fire.
quently bring as high as 40 cents n

During the winter months the poul
try houses are apt to get damp. and
some kind Of absorbent material should
be used on the floors Of the poultry
houses and under the roosts. Nothing
excels dry dirt for this purpose.
Remember that If the hens do not
have full supply Of grit the food will
not pass through the gizzard as It
should. The gizzard and the passage
way from the crop to the gizzard be-
come clogged, and many a fowl dies
simply from want of material to grind
its food. Keep grit before the fowls
mt all times.

the noisy driver. says correspondent
sof the Orange Judd Farmer.
In hot weather 1t Is almost impos-
isible to hurt him. and he does not
sweat nor pant, as does the horse. A
mule seldom gets into trouble, for he
seems never to get scared. If he kicks
over the tongue or gets his harness
fast he either gets loose quietly or
waits for the driver to get him out of
the difficulty.
One Of the especially good points of
the mule is his excellent health. A
,sick mule Is rare indeed. He will not

A mule does not require as much

flesh as does IL horse of corresponding

ployed, were fed eight pounds of shell
ed corn and a generous supply of tim
othy hay per day. That kept them in
as good flesh as horses on heavier
feed. and they did more work than the

pounds of shelled corn, eight pounds of
good oats and good timothy hay
Mules will consume more roughage
than horses and less grain. Give them
plenty of hay and they are about sat

Is YOUR ALFALFA YELLOW?
Or. Wiley, the Food Expert, Says
Buq Is the Cause.

All sorts of reasons are advanced
for the turning yellow OF alfalfa'
Some may be correct and some not.
Lack of bacteria in the SOIL says
one. ''The ground needs lime.' says
another. .'Poor undertakings" says
a third. But here comes III. w. Wiley
of Washington, the famous food ex
pert, who tells us in the Rural New
Yorker that 1t Is due to peculiar s0r:
of louise that is very fond of feeding
on alfalfa. Here Is what he says:
"a year ago last spring | sOwed -four
acres of alfalfa on my farm in Lou
doun county, Va. The plot bearing
the alfalfa lies just at the foot of the
Blue Ridge. on the east side, and is n
good quality of soil. The plot was
carefully prepared by deep plowing
thorough stirring of the surface and Il
previous treatment with two tons of
lime per acre. The termination was
almost perfect and the growth phenom
enal.
Suddenly, about the first week in
June, when the young alfalfa was two
or three inches high, the whole plot
began to turn yellow. i thought It
was due to fungus and brought sam
Piles to the bureau of plant industry at
Washington.
ut was examined by the specialist
on plant physiology, but no fungus
could be found. They did say, how
ever, that innumerable insects were
found among the leaves and stems.
therefore took samples to DR.. Howard.
entomologist Of the department. He
was delighted in discovering special
alfalfa louise. Of which he had often
heard but never had seen. In his opin-
ion the production of zanthophyll was
due to impOverishment of the plant by
the extraction of the sap by these lice.
l would suggest to farmers who notice
this appearance to examine their alfal
ia for lice"

factory silage produced, If there is an
abundance Of corn for filling the silo
We rather favor curing the alfalfa and
clover and putting the corn into the
silo. Legumes make very good grade
of silage, but in the process of fermen-
tation. owing to their high protein con-
tent, they develop very Objectionable
odor. which is not at all injurious to
the animal, nor do they produce an off
favored milk. Notwithstanding this.
1t is more satisfactory to use corn in

Value of BARNARD Manure

The nitrogen in barnyard manure is
easily worth cents per pound. In the
course Of twelve months a horse will
produce fifteen tons of manure and lit.
ter, containing in round numbers 130
pounds of nitrogen. with a value of
$10.4O. When this same basis of cal
culation is applied to each grown ami

HOME MERCHANT WOULD
FIND SYSTEM A GREAT AID.
A Proper Display Of Goods viii Often
Induce Skeptieal Customers
to Purchase.

One thing which always will be rec
ognized by future generations as being
closely identified with the life Of the
twentieth century is system. System
attic operation Of business enterprises
has reached the very height of perfcc-
ton. Thousands Of dollars are saved
and concerns made rich by cultivating
an attention TO details. The sinai
things are n reflection of the large.
When one of the biggest corporations
in the world inaugurated system into
its organization it focused its attention
first on such items as pencils. ink. rub
bers. paper. pens. etc. Pencils natu-
rally are furnished TO every employee
who has neeG for them during bust
ness hours. but a new pencil cannot
now be obtained until the stump of the
old one has been returned within Il
reasonable length of time. This con
Germ through this operation saves over
$1,000 yearly. OF curse. as mention
ed before. this is one of the largest
i'm the world and consequent
ly uses large quantities of pencils for
It's numerous ellplOA etS.
Right in your w town you will find
system among the assets of some OF
your neighbors. Perhaps they haven't
been as thorough in their small way
as the big corporation just spoken Of.
but even a little works toward an i'm
provement of conditions.
If home merchants adopted system
in the running of their businesses
much more could be accomplished than
at present. Perhaps a saving of time
could be made in the deliveries of or
ders or in the making of change by a
more convenient arrangement than
now i'm use. BY some simple device
you yourself would benefit and you
would please customers by your thor
ough businesslike method.
System should invariably be incorpo-
rated into the dressing of a window,
for variety in the display Of goods at
certain periods each day or at least three
times a week should be utilized in the
decoration of your show windows.
Then a careful study for effect
should be made. especially If you are
holding a sale on some one article. the
price of which should be conspicuous
ly shown. The stores of the big cities
spend hundreds of thousands yearly In
window display. Each day they rear
range the goods they offer in such a
manner that it is a delight merely to
gaze into the window in passing. The
seasons should always be taken into
consideration. The coming of fall,
winter, summer or spring should be
anticipated by a few weeks by a dis.
play of seasonal goods.
