them to suit the purchaser. Some will
want them drawn and others only have
the bird fat and plump by shutting up
for q few days and feeding on cooked
cornmeal. If the fowls do not seem in
good condition. it is wise to shut the
cockerels by themselves. The flesh is
much more tender if they are thus sep
arated at the proper time.
While II should have the retail
price for birds dressed to order, it Is
wise to be generous in weight. An
ounce or two extra thrown in to n good
customer IS not lost. In fact. little
fads that please ones patrons are al
ways profitable.

Eeedinu Potatoes to Hous.

When potatoes are cheap the surplus
can be used to advantage in feeding
to hogs. Four bushels of potatoes are
t" feed if they are fed rightly, The
best Nay is to cook them and then
mix a little grain with them after they
are cooked. adding Il little salt. Hogs
like salt the same as other animals,
and it will not hurt them. as some are
lcd to believe. Milk is good to feed in
connection with the POTATOES. The
grain should he ground to get the best
results. If the pigs can have good al
f:4lfa hay which is not too coarse they
will make good gains on the potatoes
and hay Hlnnr without grain.-Farm

Grow Strawberries In Hills,

The hill system of strawberry culture
is not as generally practiced as it
should be. The plan is ideal for the
production of large fancy berries. With
this system of culture it is important
to plant varieties which are adapted
to the plan: not to plant more than can
be fortified and cared for properly: to
apply before planting not less than
one-half ton Of Il complete high grade
fertilizer: to see that the soil is we'll
filled with humuS before planting: to
apply two or three inches of rotten
manure between the rows every wear:
to keep all runners removed: to mulch
In the fall after the ground is frozen
and to remove the mulch next spring
before it has damaged the plants: to
give whatever tillnge is necessary to
destroy all weed growth and to keep
the soil in proper physical condition.--
