FARM BURROWS.
Farmer and ~tockman.

Farmer and >tockman.
If turkey raising becomes more
general, as it surely will, if the pres
ent high price continues, it will be
necessary to build fences that are hen
tight and turkey high in order that
neighbors may live in peace.
There is no doubt but what poultry
raising will become part of the farm
er's business in the future and one
thing that will give it a boost is when
we eliminate a few middle men and
market all poultry products as direct
ly to the consumer as cooperative
creamery patrons market their butter
now. In other words, when we be-
gin to attend strictly to our own bust
ness there will be more money in it
for us.
One Of the drawbacks about poul-
try raising on the farm is that, as a
general thing, the hen houses are too
small. While they may do as roost-
ing places in the summer, when the
whole yard is used as scratchingLpen,
they are too crowded in the winter,
when stormy weather keeps the hens
shut in for weeks at a time. In order
to have room according to her
strength each hen should have at
least four square feet of floor space
outside of the roosts.
When creamery patron finds that
he is sending away cream that tests
less than 25 per cent Of butter fat, he
is robbing himself of skim milk that
should be kept on the farm for feed,
and should regulate his separator ac-
cordingly. It. is the saving of the by
products that makes any business
profitable.
Those who do not feel able to build
a new barn will find that they can
make their stables more cheerful by
putting in few more windows and
the stalls and floors. They
will also find that this may be
short cut toward getting the where
with to build. Quite often it is bet
ter way than taking on mortgage to
get the money.
Winter is half over and, as far as
fuel, feed and chores are concerned,
let us hope that it is the bigger and
better, or should we say thew ef q. sc I
half.
We have learned one thing about
our winter weather that no prophet
need tell us that it is Subject to
change without notice
Those who predicted that we should
nave about as much use for a snow
shovel this winter as we had for a
avn mower last summer should
.hange their tune now and say that
We shall have as much use for a lawn
next summer as we have for
snow shovel now. If they must
'redict something, why not predict
omething that sounds good?
1t takes lot of work to reduce hay (
nd grain to milk or cream and when

Chinese Style-Time for Sar-

New York.-"Make a bonfire of your
hats; throw away your corsets and
wear trousers instead of these ridicu-
lous tight skirts" is the recommended
ton of Mrs. Carrie Chapman Gait, the
suffragette leader. to the Equal Suf-
frage league in her report of her two
years round-the-world campaign in be-
half of votes for women
MY trip around the globe convinced
me- says Mrs Gait, that my own
countrywomen are the most fettered,
sartorially, to be found anywhere.
Compared with the Chinese women the
American woman is almost as helpless
as a baby
1T is time for the western women
to kick herself free from the swaddling
draperies which the Parisians send
over to us We should declare our
independence in dress as we have in
politics and the sooner we do it the
better for health, happiness and the
cause"
Mrs. Gait advocates the Chinese
dress, or a modification of it, because
it is the most sanitary, healthful,
comfortable and artistic costume a
woman can wear" She describes the
Chinese costume as including loose,
straight-hanging trousers, made OF
silk or other material and over this
garment a straight loose coat which
comes below the knees usually, and
buttons over one side. This garment is
collarless, with sleeves that are half
tight and end between the elbow and
the wrist"
