POULTRY is AN ALL.YEAR-
ROUND SOURCE OF INCOME

There issone feature Of the poultry
business that should appeal to more
farmers than it does, which is, poul-
try yields an all-year-round income.
The same may be said of the dairy
business. Both dairying and poul-
try raising are always in season. so
far as income is concerned To be
sure, it is all-year-round work, but
the farmers have to keep fairly busy
the year round in order to make a
good living and have something to
spare From January to January,
the hen may be relied upon to pro-
duce an income. OF course it all
depends upon the management. To
raise poultry the way our forefathers
did will not produce it by any means.
But the modern poultry plant has to
do with the selling of product from
the beginning of the year to the end
Well managed poultry produce eggs
the year round. To be sure, there
are times during the year when egg
prodution falls off, but the season OF
low egg production is contemporane
GUS with the season when broilers
and soft roasters are in the greatest
demand-from June LIST to the holi
days, The failure to get a full run
of eggs is compensated by the ability
to turn off orders for the table poul
try. Rightly managed the returns
from the sale of the cockerels, botf
as broilers and roasters, will pay al
the cost of raising the pullets tC
the laying maturity, which is al
item of income that is worth consid
ering. The poultryman that hai

Advantage to Farmers.

1t would be of considerable ad-
vantage to farmers if they paid more
attention to the business of poultry
raising. That it is profitable, if
sensibly and methodically pursued,
has been demonstrated time and time
again A farmers wife can easily
earn sufficient money for household
purposes out of her poultry, and even
save something for rainy day. "
Apart from the profit, the keeping
of fine poultry is entered into by Eng
fish ladies as adding much to the in
terest of country life, and to the at
tractiveness of the country homes,
and there seems to be no explanation
why the fashion should not be adopt
ed in American rural and suburban
homes for the same reason. AS a
branch of farming that requires 50
little hard work, carries with it Sc
much enjoyment, and takes up so lit.
tie space, there is nothing equally as
profitable that could take its place.

RAISING PIGEONS FOR PROFIT

tuberculosis is a rapid wasting Of
esh, labored breathing, occasionally
a cough, but always diarrhea, 1t IS
due to insufficient good or excess Of
bad food, poorly ventilated lofts, filthy
water, lack of exercise and filthy
lofts. Cod-liver oil is the sovereign
remedy for the disease, given in cap
sules.
Buying lot of pigeons cheap from
a party who wishes to quit the
business" is very often a case of
buying lot of cock birds Buy only
guaranteed mated pairs.
Utility Pigeons says that after veri-
flying its figures with many breed
ers, it finds that it costs close to
thirty cents to raise pair of squads
to marketing age. This includes the
total expense with the exception of
the work of the sanitary care of the
plant and the feeding. Picking, ship
ping, marketing, feed, express and all
other items are included This is
on the basis of five-pair-a-year pro-
duction. Every additional pair would
therefore mean just so much clean
profit.
Sidney Johnson says that he does
not use trap nests, for they some
times catch the wrong bird He does
not catch when driving, as two cocks
as two cocks will drive, and he has
had two hens pair up. His methods
is simply this: Put into a loft such
birds as are about of the same grade.
When a pair mates, builds nestsmcm
When a pair mates, builds nest
and actually lays eggs, catch the hen
on the nest and band her She will
usually remain on the nest until after
she lays the second egg. Then tack
card on her nest with the number
on it. After the cock begins to sit,
catch him when actually on the nest
or as he flies off, and bband him
with the same number his mate has.
They are now duplicate number band
ed. The cock is banded on the right
leg and the hen on the left. Also put
colored band on their other leg for
convenience in identifying when sell
ing, or for ease in finding should an
accident happen to one and it is
wanted to take out the odd bird. Then
move them into the breeding pen
and they are ready to go to work.

SERVES BANQUET.
Journal and Guide.)

On Wednesday, January 10th, the
stockholders of the Virginia Beneficial
and Insurance Company met at the
home Office on Queen street, Norfolk,
Va, after one of the best business
meetings ever held by this corpora
ton, they proceeded to elect officers
for the year 1912. The officers elect
ed were as follows; e. G. Brown,
president; M. r. Jackson, vice-presi-
dent; J. T. p. Cross, secretary and
manager; G. G. Dogan, treasurer.
The following named persons, to-
gether with the officers, will constitute
the board of directors: Rev. A. L.
Gaines, of Baltimore, Md; DIR. J. j.
France, of Portsmouth, Va. W. H. G.
Brown, George R. Moore and ]. w.
Baker, of Norfolk, Va.
The secretary's report showed the
company to be in a most excellent
shape and that there was an increase
of nearly four thousand dollars ($4,-
00000) in business for the year 1911
over the year 1910; it showed that the
company was able to set aside sur
plus of $9,54S.67, almost equalling the
paid in capital of ten thousand dol
lars ($11, 000). The company owns val
liable real estate on Church and Queen
streets and have eleven thousand dol
lars ($11,000) worth of Norfolk city
bonds deposited with the insurance
department of this state for the pro
lection of pol cy holders.
Immediately after the adjournment

phia House, where splendid course
dinner had been arranged. Cover

reigned supreme and as the gentlemen
left the table, they were loud in the
praise of the management of the com.
pany and expressed great confidence
in the future.

the women's play to the galleries

better in the eye of all the people,

Good Rules to Follow.

In raising poultry or stock of any
kind it should be the aim of every
one to keep it healthy and improve it.
You can do it very easily by adopt
ing some system rules. These may
be summed up in the brief as, fol-
lows:
1. Construct your house good and
warm, so as to avoid damp floors
and afford flood of sunshine. Sun
shine is better than medicine.
2. Provide a busting and scratching
place where you can bury wheat and
corn, and thus induce the fowls TO
take the needful exercise.
8. Provide yourself with some good
healthy fowls, never to be over three
or four years old, giving one COCK
to every twelve hens.
a. Give plenty Of fresh air at all
times, especially in summer.
5. Give plenty of fresh Water daily
and never allow the fowls to go thlrs
ty.
6. Feed them systematically two OF
three times a day. Scatter the 1000
so they can't eat too fast or WIN
out proper exercise. Do not feed more
than they will eat up clean, or they
will get tired of that kind OF food
T. Give them a variety of both dry
and cooked feed. A mixture of cook
ed meat and vegetables is an excel
lent thing for their morning meal.
s. Give soft feed in the morning
and the whole grain at night, excep
little wheat and cracked corn plac
ed in the scrat hing places to give
them exercise during the day.
8. Above all things, keep the house
clean and well ventilated.
10. Do not crowd too many into ont
house; if you do, look out for dis
ease.
II. Use carbolic powder occasion
ally in the busting bins to destro!
lice.
-. Wash your roosts and bottom o
laying nests and whitewash once
week in summer and once a montl
in winter.
10. Let the old and young have a
large a range as possible, the large
the better.
