Poultry on tho Farm, :

With few exceptions, 1t Is a gen.
orally accepted fact that poultry on
the farm is looked upon by the far
mcr as hardly worth his notice as a
Drolit-paying factor in the manage
ment of the farm. This Is evidenc-
which they are taken care Of. The
stock and cattle must have their
warm, clean stables, and the pigs
good stys, but anything from an ap-
pie or cedar tree to an apology for
a housc-some Of which have cracks
through which you could throw a
cat'--will do for poultry.
These conditions are more in cvi-
dcncc in some sections than in 9TH
ers, and South Carolina seems to be
one OF the States in which the farm
ers and others interested are awak-
cning and showing more interest in
poultry and the profit which they
can be made to pay when properly
cared for.
Hens respond readily to good
treatment, and will moro than pay
for their keep when properly,housed
and fed. Many poultry-keepers
think that all 1T is necessary to give
hens in the way Of food Is plenty of
corn, and then are disappointed
when they fail to lay. Is there
farmer in the country who would
expect to make good corn or cotton
on ground in which either OF the
three elements necessary for plant
food--namely, phosphoric acid, pot
ash and nitrogen-was entirely alb
sent, without supplying same?
Just so with the hen. She cannot
and will not produce eggs unless the
elements necessary are provided in
her food, and this Is not the case
when corn alone is fed, as corn con-
tains large quantities Of fat and
hcat-producing material, and but lit
tie which goes toward the making of
an egg.
We are keeping record Of egg
production Of one Of our focks, and
an itemizcd statement OF the cost Of
feeding, and we intend to give the
readers of this department the ben
eft Of our experience along this line
in an early issue Of The Courier,
but lack OF space will not permit US
to do so in this article. We think
this will be of interest to lots Of
you who are interested in poultry,
as we will show the kind Of feed
used, and quantity, and it will fur
nish figures for comparison with
other foods.

l. Is not necessary to have costly

l. Is not necessary tc have costly
hotses and equipment for the sue
/ cccsful raising of poultry, nor do we
! advocate an elaborate system Of
| feeding; but il is necessary, for sue
cess. to have some knowledge of food
requirements, and the use Of a little
Judgment and common sense in the
application OF that knowledge.
OF course there are some people
who do not care to market eggs at
all. only keeping hens for eggs for
home use. but it has been our obser-
vation that, even when this is the
case, usually two or three times the
number OF hens are kept, in order
to get sufficient quantity for home
use. than would be necessary under
proper conditions, thereby max ing
the eggs cost more than they prob
ably would If bought in the market.
Taken individually, tho poultry
industry is a small thing, but gov
eminent statistics show that the
American Sen is always con to her
job" and ranks way up as food
producer, and her annual output is
valued up in the millions.
TO illustrate the magnitude Of the
industry in certain sections Of the
country. take our sister State Of
Tennessee. Just before Christmas
last year there was shipped from
Alexandria,, Tenn, 100000 pounds
Of dressed turkeys; from Norris
town, Tenn, 80 cars, valued at fifty
thousand dollars, and from Muir
freesboro, turkeys valued at approx
imatcly fifty thousand dollars-over
one hundred and fifty thousand dol
lars distributed among the farmers
and poultrymen Of Tennessee for
turkeys alone-in addition to which
there is no telling low many eggs
and chickens were shipped by these
men; but Tennessee, and especially
the section around Morristown, is
said to ship out more eggs and chick
ems than any other section Of the
South.
Now everybody wake up and get
in line, and let's raise more and bet
ter poultry as a side line to cotton
In this section we can raise all the
grain necessary on which to feed
them, and we have an ideal climate
and large markets close at hand,
with good transportation facilities,
so why not all Of us increase our
flocks of poultry and get some of
the money which the world Is paying
for eggs and poultry started our
way? With the low price Of cotton,
and acreage reduction. we should

Incubation with Hens.

DO not set all egg over one week
old if YOU can help it. When you
start saving eggs to set, be sure and
turn them every day. This will pre-
vent the yolk rom getting on one
side and sticking 10 side of shell.
Select eggs OF good. even shape and
with smooth surface. DO not use
wrin nklc-shelled eggs, eggs with
rough surface, of unusually large or
small size, eggs with thin shells, or,
in fact, any kind OF an egg which is
abnormal or out of the ordinary. AS
a rule they viii not hatch. See that
all eggs are clean.
Select quiet, dry place for nests.
See that nests are roomy and do not
try to place too many eggs under
one hen. OF medium eggs an ordi-
nary hen should cover rs, a large
hen is; Of large eggs, the medium
hen 13, large hen about Is. 1t
does not pay to give them more. See
that your hen is free from vermin.
1t Is safest to dust them with good
lice powder before setting them, and
again about three days before due to
hatch, and the day before they are
due to hatch. II is important to get
rid Of all vermin before the young
chickens come off, as that is the crit
cal time with them
1t Is best not to disturb the hens
any more than can be helped after
setting them, but keep a close watch
on them, and If any eggs are broken
wash what are left in warm water
If this is not done the chick ems in
what are left are apt to be killed
by foul gases and by the pores in the
egg shell being stopped and pre-
venting air getting to the chick in
side the egg.
IT the hen quits the nest, II YOU
find it out within four or five hours,
even at tbs time OF year. the chicks
are not apt to be dead.

"a hours; then turn them into box
with holes in bottom and let water
drain off,. then replace in warm place
and let them stand IL hours; then
turn them back into tight pail and
sprinkle with water, being careful
not to get too much The idea is to
keep them just damp enough to en-
courage termination, but not to let
water stand on them after the first
"a hours. or they will sour and rot.
We have had several lots ruined by
sDrinkling too heavy. Continue the
above. turning from one receptacle
to the other, and at thu end of tn,
fourth or fifth day roots will appear
on the root end, quickly followed by
sprouts on the other end. We begin
feeding when sprouts are about one
inch long, which is usually about
seven days from time the process
started. About one quart to fifteen
or twenty hens will give good re-
suits, but more will not hurt them,
rs they will not eat more of the
green food than their systems re-
quire. If your hens are not laying,
and You have never tried this, give
1T trial, and see if it will not start
them to shelling out the eggs. Even
II you have rye patch, or other
green growing stuff where the hens
can get at it, and your hens are not
doing what think how tn
the sprouted oats will help them.

Green Food in Winter.

All poultry-keepers have at one
problem OF providing green food for
the flock in winter. We believe
sprouted oats offers the cheapest and
best solution Of the problem.
The method Of sprouting is as fol-
lows: Take two pals, or boxes, one
tight, the other with holes bored in
bottom. Fill the tight pail about
wo-thirds full OF oats, pour water
over them until covered; place in
warm place and allow them to stand

As to Best Breeds.

While we believe utility poultry
for market to be the only firm foun-
dation on which the industry can be
built up, we also are firm believers
in thoroughbred, or what is general
ly called fancy" poultry, as
means Of improving the quality and
productiveness Of the utility fowl,
and we expect, from time tc time,
to deal with that feature in these
columns.
On deciding to raise poultry, ma
turally the first question which pre-
sents itself Is what breed to choose.
This, to great extent, depends upon
the particular branch of the indus
try one expects to pay most atten-
ton to, If any, and individual taste.
There are many breeds to select
from, almost all Of which have their
good points. We want to take up
some of the most important. and
point out their eXcelling qualities,
as well as their defects, and would
like to have some poultryman or wo-
man iii this county who has a breed
which he or she thinks have suDe-
rior qualities write an article,
pointing out their strong points, not
forgetting to mention th". weak
ones, and send 1t in to- us and we
Will publish 1t in these columns.
