Starting With Chickens.

Thousands of new flockS of chick ems will be started off this spring with great enthusiasm and still greater ex- pectations. It happens so every year. The fifty or sixty odd poultry papers, the hundred odd agricultural and hor- ticultural journals, the several hun dred poultry shows given each year by as many local poultry associa- tions, the thousands upon thousands of established breeders of pure fowls, the agricultural colleges and expert ment stations-all of these agencies are doing a mighty work in their ef- forts to interest all of us in poultry keeping.
 We believe, with the poets, that "'Tis better to have loved and lost, than never to have loved,' and it Is doubly true that any one will be bet ter off and have broader outlook. be having got back into touch with na- ture through the care of little chick ems and their parents. If at the same time, you have not made a financial success, it will be nobody's fault but your own, unless you are a victim of circumstances beyond control
 Small flocks of chickens can always be handled profitably by observing a few very simple rules. It is only with great big flocks that the odds are against us. In starting out at this time of the year, one can either buy eggs and hatch them, or day-old chicks can be purchased and raised either with hens or small breeders. For a person entirely unfamiliar with poul- try, the ideal scheme is to go to some poultry raiser and buy from him a hen with her chickens already matched.
 Take them home and place the hen in a good coop that will confine her in a dry, shady place and will permit the chicks to run out and in at will. Be sure the ground under the coop is dry and clean. Move the coop ire quently.
 Dust the hen thoroughly with Per sian insect powder as soon as you get her home and repeat in weeks time, to kill vermin on her and hef chicks. Feed the hen a handful of cracked corn and wheat twice a day,
 Start young chicks on barely mois. tened bread crumbs three times a day and prepared chick food twice a day. Get this food from any seed or poultry supply house. Feed only what they will clean up quickly. Suo

culent green food should be furnish ed frequently.
 If the chicks have large range you need not bother about grit, charcoal or meat food, but these articles must be supplied if chicks cannot pick up gravel and insects
 After chicks begin to feather, keep cracked dry bone before them; feed two feeds of mixture of cracked corn two parts. wheat one part, hulled oats one part. and one feed of very stiff prepared wet mash every day The mash can be secured ready mixed and it must not be fed too wet. Feed little meat three times week. Clean water must be supplied at all times. good water fountain is tin can inverted in a dish.

Makinq a New Lawn.

A good lawn can be grown any where in the northern states and upon any kind of a surface soil. One req son so many new lawns fail is because the soil which is taken out in ex- cavating for the new house is spread over the lot, covering up the old sur face soil The deep or sub-soil Is worthless for growing anything, not because it contains no plant food, but because it's plant food Is held in such chemical combinations that plants can not digest 1t. Action of frost, air, sun light and bacteria, must take place be- fore the plant can live in it. If this excavated soil must be used for grad ing purposes, cover 1t with three inches of good loam or black earth If you want grass to grow there.
 Given ordinary surface soil to start with, the first step is to blow or spade it about six inches deep. At this time turn under good cover of stable manure and then work the soil to a fine seed bed, just as for garden. Level the surface, fill in the hollows and then broadcast a commercial fer tilizer, using about one-fourth pound to the square yard. A good fertilizer Is composed of one part muriate of potash, five parts steamed bone meal, one part slaked lime It will be well to use the lime anyway, as 1t puts the soil in fine shape, although 1t is with out value. as direct plant food Now roll the ground to make it firm and form good passage up for the water in the sub-soil Just as soon as the soil has been rolled it should be raked, or narrowed with a fine tooth harrow, the seed should be sown broadcast, and the soil should be raked or har- rowed crossways, to cover the seed lightly. Do this the same day you roll the ground or 1t will dry out too | much
 Your seedsman can furnish you with excellent mixtures of lawn seed or by using 45 per cent. each of Ken lucky blue grass and red top, with 10 per cent. white clover seed by weight Sow 1t by hand on still day, while the surface of the soil is damp. Sow on the basis of a handful of seed to the square yard.
 If the sowing has to be done late in the spring or during a very hot, dry period, it will be we'll to give the soil light mulch of straw or strawy manure
 A cover crop such as oats or rye is often used, but Is not particularly ad vantageous except for shade and it uses up a great deal of water and plant food
 Keep the new lawn well watered during the growing season and cover it with fine stable manure during the | first winter

 As Age Advdnces
The First Necessity is to Keep the BOWelS Gently Open With q Mild
 LQx0ffve Tonic

Healthy old age is so absolutely de pendent upon the condition of the bowels that great care should be taken to see that they act regularly. The fact is that as age advances the stomach muscles become weak and inactive and the liver does not store up the juices that are necessary to prompt digestion.
 Some help can be obtained by eat Ing easily digested foods and by plenty of exercise, but this latter is irksome to most elderly people. One thing is certain, that a state of con stipation should always be avoided as it is dangerous to life and health. The best plan is to take a mild laxative as often as Is deemed necessary. But with equal certainty it is suggested that cathartics, purgatives, physics, salts and pills be avoided, as they do but temporary good and are so harsh as to be shock to delicate system.
 A much better plan, and one that thousands of elderly people are follow ing, is to take a gentle laXative-tonic like Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, which acts as nearly like nature as is possible. In fact, the tendency of this remedy Is to strengthen the stomach and bowel muscles and so train them to act naturally again, when medicines of all kinds can usually be dispensed with. This Is the opinion of many people of different ages, among them MT. O. P. Miller, Baroda, Mich, who writes: 'I am 80 years old and have been constipated for many years. Since receiving your sample bottle I have procured two 50c bottles and find that

The WheeIbarroW,

If you have occasion to use wheel barrow, leave it, when you are through with it, in front of the house with the handles towards the door. A wheel barrow is the most complicated thing to fall over on the face of the earth. A man will fall over one when he would never think of falling over any thing else. He never knows when he has got through falling over it, either; for it will tangle his legs and his arms, turn over with him and rear up in front of him, and just as he pauses in his profanity to congratulate himself, 1t takes a new turn, and scoops more skin off of him, and he commences to evolute anew, and bump himself on fresh places. A man never ceases to fall over a wheelbarrow until it turns completely on its back, or brings up against something it cannot upset. It Is the most inoffensive looking object there is, but 1t Is more dangerous than a locomotive, and no man is se- cure with one unless he has a tight hold on its handles, and is sitting down on something. A wheelbarrow has its uses, without doubt, but in its leisure moments 1t is the great blight ing curse on true dignity.-James Montgomery Bailey.

Danger In Impure Water.

One of the fruitful means of pro- noting disease in the flock during winter months is an insanitary drink ing fountain A flock that has a dis ease will drink at the common foun. tain and spread the disease in a few days through the whole flock The only way to prevent this taking place is in keeping the fountains cleaned and disinfected.
 Scala out the fountains with boiling water, then rinse them in cold water After they are reinstaled in the poul- try house put little tincture of iron or copperas in the water. This opera tion should be performed at least twice 8 week.

MANNER OF DEHORNlNG COWS
Fine-Tooth Saw Is Better for Older Animals Than CIippers-There
 Is Little Danger.

Some cows are naturally very bossy temperament that is not i'm proved by age. The only remedy is to remove the horns. For some un- accountable reason pure bred dairy cows all have horns as part of their natural equipment. Ayrshires have especially dangerous horns, as fashion demands that Ayreshires have horns that project forward and upward. Red Polls and Polled Durhams are the only exceptions, and these are really beef breeds. There Is very little dan ger to the COW in having her horns sawed off, and not much discomfort, judging from her actions. Usually there is no loss of blood or appetite, and the milk flow remains normal or nearly so. A sharp, fine-tooth saw is better than clippers for the older anil mals. Clippers sometimes smash the skeleton bones inside. the horn and prevent healing properly. For young cattle the better kinds of knife instru- ments work very well.

Wax From Apiary.

To get the most wax from an apiary it pays occasionally to scrape the frames, honey boards and the inside of the hives, and when old frames are broken up. They do make nice kin ding wood, but before using them they should be boiled, for there is wax sticking to the old frames even after they are scraped seemingly clean, and as each pound of wax rep resents several pounds of honey, all cappings removed when preparing combs for the extractor, all scrapings and trimmings and bits of drone comb are to be saved and rendered into wax.

 A bottle can be bought of any drug. gist at fifty cents or one dollar. Peo- pie usually buy the fifty cent size first, and then, having convinced themselves of its merits they buy the dollar size, which is more economical. Results are always guaranteed or money will be refunded. Any elderly person can fol- low these suggestions with safety and the assurance of good results.
