tho exhibits OF poultry and all class

better than hoped for Mt the first
show. The directors Of the nSsocia-
tion were on" and all encouraged by
tho showing and the nptronage and
tho succefs promises much for next
yoar. All exhibitors were satisfied
with tho awards and from tho inter
est exhibited by poultry ralscrs and
the public, II would appear that the
show Is a permanent Institution.
There were few exhibits from out
ride the city this year. and few cX-
hibits from tho Sunflower valley.
This waS n disappointment hut II Is
accounted for by tho fact that the
show was arranged In such short

At bedtime another cup OF sugar.
three eggs. and a cup Of shortening

STAPLE FOOD FOR POULTRY
Grain Is Beneficial to All Farm Fowls,
but Variety Is Necessary for
Egg Production.

Grain is the staple food for poui-
try, and will De used for that purpose
as long as fowls are kept on farms;
but hens can not give good results
on grain alone. 1t is beneficial to
them and will be at all times rel
ished, but the demands of the hens
are such as to call for a variety. Ia
the shells of eggs as well as their
composition are several forms OF min.
eral matter and nitrogen, which can
only be partially obtained from grain.
Even grains vary in composition,
and when fowls are fed on one kind
for long time, they will begin to re.
fuse it. as they may be oyersupplied
with the clements Of the food par
taken and lack the elements that are
best supplied from some other source.
For this reason they will accept
change of food. which is of itself
an evidence that the best results
from hens can only be obtained by
a variety of food. Corn end wheat
may be used as food with advantage,
but must be given as portion OF
the ration and net made exclusive ar.
tiles CT diet.

FOWLS NEED SOME EXERCISE
When Confined Too Closely Birds
Are Constantly Trying to Secure
Liberty, Making Poor Returns.

If fowls are too closely confined,
they will constantly be striving to get
at liberty they will try to fly over
the highest fences, and in every way
show how well they love the range
of field and pasture Such uneasiness
and anxiety to get out initiate against
their good health, and a hen that is
not in good health will not lay eggs,
says the New York Farmer. They
should, therefore, have all the space
that may be allowed them, and this
may not be furnished at all, then how
much more important it ia that ono
does not keep too many fowls con
fined within the limit of the poultry
house exclusively.
However well the poultryman may
feed and tend them, when thus re
stricted, il there be an excess OF mum
bers crowded together, the hens will
cease to lay, they will get ill, they
will lose their flesh, become miser-
able In q short time, and In no case
can they be made to give good returns
when thus restricted in their quar-.
ters. II you had no room for the hens
to exercise in, you would better get
rid of them.

TO PROTECT INSECT EATERS
Measure Reasonably Sure Of Passage
by Congress for Preservation
OF Little Birds.

One of the three bills pending in
congress for the protection of birds
is reasonably sure OF passage, be-
cause public sentiment. in the first
place, is against the destruction of
biz Dis, and, secondly, because there is
an Important economic reason for the
enactment OF strong laws in this d.
rection. Officials OF the biological sur

estimate that 20 per cent. OF the aver
age annual crops OF the country is
destroyed by insects. Away back as
far as 1904 it was found that the dam
age done through the ravages Of In
sects amounted to $420,000,00O. This
Is direct loss to the nation, and one
which must have very appreciate
effect in determining the price OF prod

birds more than any other agency to
eliminate this loss. yet the bird slaugh-
ter continues. The destruction OF in

MANY ORCHARDS, YOUNG SHADE TREES
AND WINDBREAKS RUINED BY RABBITS
Too Much Attention Cannot Be Given to Task of Removing Al
Brush Piles and Thickets Which May Serve Breeding
and Hiding PIaces-Traps Are Effective.

In the first place. 1t is very i'm
portant that all brush piles and
Tickets near the orchards. which may
serve as breeding and hiding places
Tor the rabbits, be removed.
Traps OF various sorts are effective.
A simple and successful method ia TO
sink barrel IN the ground level with
its surface. BIT the head slightly
smaller than the top and allow 1t to
swing freely on a rod or old broom
stick. Pieces of apple or grains OF
corn may be placed on the outer edge
or the cover and when the rabbit
attempts to get these. the lid tips up
and he slides into the barrel. while
the lid, which is slightly heavier on
one side than the other, assumes it's
original position. The heavier side
should strike against heavy nail or
bolt go that only the lighter side OF
the lid will drop. The whole thing
should be covered over with brush
or light fiat stones, so as to make an
enticing place for the rabbits.
A novel and ingenious trap for
catching rabbits has been designed
by Mr.. Walter Wellhouse; and used
