sponsible in a very large degree lot
the rapid curtailment Of the industry
In the eastern states.
The hope of the tnrkey-raising In
dustry appears at present to lie In
the west, and those portions Of the
south which have so far escaped this
| dreaded disease. Breeders have now
learned, at least in a preliminary way,
how to prevent the disease, and in the
west, where it has not prevailed 70
any considerable extent, farmers have
taken up turkey breeding. encouraged
by the tremendously high prices that
have prevailed during the past few
years and by the hope that they viii
be able to escape the losses suffered
by the eastern breeders who did not
know how to cope with the disease.
| AS farmers receive about So per
cent. of the retail price OF turkeys
there is good profit IN the business,
provided the birds escape disease.
Embarrassing is no more difficult
than the raising of any other kind OF
poultry. 1t requires just as much,
but no more trouble than should be
devoted to the raising of guinea
fowls, well-bred chickens, or squads.
In fact, where extensive range can be
secured, the rearing of turkeys is less
trouble than that Of chickens.
Turkeys are great rangers, but as
they quickly become attached to their
attendant, 1t is not difficult to control
them. They should be fed and cared
for by the same person from the time
they are Matched until they are ready
for the market In this way they vii
learn to come at the call OF the at
tendant, and follow him for long dis
tances. from the fields to the coops.
If young turkeys are carefully
handled by the same person they cal
be easily driven from one place Il
! another, and when storms come OF
, they can be quickly housed. In for
eign countries turkeys are driven t
market in flocks, and we once saw
flock of nearly 800 birds being driver

station three miles from the farm

will be quite ready to affirm that per

Last year in the largest cities first

cents per pound, and a SIS bill was
hardly adequate to secure a bird that
would sufficiently serve an ordinary

The fact is that fewer turkeys are
being raised every year. the decline In
the industry having started six or
seven years ago, when the terrible
disease Of blackhead began to destroy
the flocks in the New England states.
The ravages of this disease have be-

disease has spread to other states

EXERCISE HELPFUL

One Of the most successful hog
feeders in Kansas uses no pens at all,
but permits his hogs full range, and
scatters the soaked corn from tank
wagon out upon the ground, never
feeding twice In the same place. He
believes the exercise is very beneficial
to the hogs health. but says that it
takes more corn and larger feeding to
make the animal ready for market.
This feeder buys his shoats, never
keeping more than a dozen brood
sows on the place, and the hogs he
buys for fattening begin to arrive by
late fall. when they at once are put
on alfalfa in the pasture and later
given steamed and cut alfalfa, which
is cured very green. His hogs go on
