Caution Against Rushing Cotton to Market.

Cautioning the cotton raisers against rushing
their cotton to market President Peter Radford
of the Farmers union issued an explanatory adj
dress of warning, of which copy follows:
Headquarters Farmers Union Fort Worth,
Texas, Oct al wish to say this department has
earnestly appealed to the farmers merchants and
bankers to cooperate for the purpose of mar
lSeting this years crop of cotton more intelli-
gently if possible than we have ever marketed
any in the past, that is, to market slowly or as
the market needed it, and to aid in this matter
reasonable arrangements were made with num-
Der of banks for money at a reasonable rate of
interest 10 those who wished to hold their cotton
in the local warehouse, and besides this the cot
ton factors both at Houston and Galveston have
been ready TO do their usual business in the same
way as they have for years. This would &C
commodate those who did not want to patronize
the local warehouse. Therefore it was not nee
essary to rush cotton to the market as fast as IT
has been done.
OF course if we do not use our intelligence and
cooperate for the best interest of the country
we will undoubtedly pay the usual penalty OF
seeing the speculator get the price instead of the
farmer.

BREEDING FOR EGG PRODUCTION.

The poultry department of the New York State
College of Agriculture at Ithaca has been doing
some remarkable work in breeding for egg pro-
duction. Among its flock fifteen hens averaged
a36 eggs per year each and twelve wei, others av-
In the former lot are two hens which have made
astonishing records Mime. Cornell, one OF these
hens laid in her first year 245 eggs, which
weighed 600 pounds, and Lady Cornell, the 9th
er hen, as7 eggs, which weighed 2o.5 pounds
Lady Cornell is single comb white Leghorn
and only weighs 32 pounds, and by laying 257
eggs averaging I8 ounces each this hens pro-
dnetive ABILITY during that period was o. pounds
Of eggs for each pound of her live weight This is
remarkable performance. In this hens second
wear she laid 200 eggs weighing 1860 pounds, or
a total egg yield for two consecutive years OF
Az eggs weighing 53.Io pounds.

Juvenile Farm Clubs.

College Station reports that there are 1850
members enrolled in the Boys and Girls club in
Texas. This work is conducted in connection
with the farmers cooperative work and extends
over all sections of the state All grades of crops
and several specimens Of farm animals are treat
ed under scientific methods and the result OBJ
tanned by following government instructions have
proved this branch Of the work TO be very bene-
fetal In many cases where land and crops are
properly treated, the yield has increased more
than go per cent. For instance, Laura Cameron,
of Gainesville, Bee county, raised 1850 pounds of
cotton off one acre of land while the yield on
the same area of adjacent land under ordinary
methods was 100 pounds.

Cotton Seed Meal For Poultry.

That cotton seed meal is most superior food
for AFT kinds of fowls is being demonstrated in
the wards of many poutrymen who have learned
by experience and test to give it first place as
an egg producer, and for fat, flesh and condition.
For as will be at once seen, the same high al
buminoid content which produces flesh and milk
in cattle, development and fecundity in hogs,
bone. muscle and endurance in horses, will give
eggs vigor and condition in fowls
As in other cases. it should always be fed to
poultry as supplemental ration only, and mixed
always with some less highly concentrated food
Corn chops corn meal, wheat bran shorts or
small grain, or with cotton seed hulls, il wet and
soured Mixed in this way, about one-third to
one-half cotton seed meal it may be fed either dry
or wet into a thin dough, and the result will be
quickly shown in added vigor, rapid growth,
glossier pumage and in increased egg produc-
ton.
