for the last l seemed to think about

My conscience rather hurt me, for
l am particularly fond of chicken
salad and had ordered it often when
Dick and 1 had been out together.
But even l had been surfeited with
sweets and salads in the days before
the wedding when we were enter
tanned by his friends and mine.
After the boy had left, Dick held
out his arms to me and rushed into
them. For moment neither of us
spoke and then Dick tipped my chin
up and, with that dear one-sided
smile, said:

RAISING BR0ILERS ON FARM
Exceedingly Large Demand for Light
weight Chickens of From Two
to Two-and-Half Pounds.

By A. c. SMITH, Professor OF Poultry
Husbandry. University Farm, St. Paul.
MIMI
The early chick is the most profit
able, yet there is profit on the late
chick provided 1t is not too late.
There is an exceptionally large de-
mand for lightweight roasters and
broilers of from two to two and half
pounds. This furnishes splendid
opportunity for those who wish to rear
and market chicks without being
obliged to house them. Hatched in
May or June, they should easily weigh
two or two and one-haf pounds before
October /. II especially well fed, they
should reach that weight still earlier.
This is the most favorable time to
hatch and raise chickens, as the parent
stock has been out of doors long
enough to acquire splendid health and
remarkable vigor. Eggs, II sensibly
set, should hatch almost perfectly and
the chicks should live and thrive.
The equipment required is very

covered with waterproof paper, set in
dry sheltered place may be used
both to set the hen in and to house the
brood, though the barrel Is rather un.
suitable for the brood after the chicks
are weaned, especially il there are
many OF them.
Both hen and chicks should be al
lowed free range after the chicks are
a few days old, to pick up large
share Of their living, but in addition
it is a good plan to feed them at night,
and to give them all they will eat, as
they will grow faster and will either
be marketable at an earlier age or
weigh more, and consequently bring
more, at given time. Chickens of
this weight will not, 1t is true, bring a
fortune, but 1t must be remembered
that they cost very little to rear. The
fact that the earlier they are market
able, the better the price, should not
be lost sight Of. For this reason 1t
pays to feed them little where there
is not an opportunity to pick up abun.

Use Of Resistant" Cabbage Seed Saves

the crop grown by those who cater
to these demands. The prices vary
greatly according to the season and
location. The price per ton, as indi-
Gated by fifteen correspondents cater
ing to the trade of different cities,
varies from IS to SIS. During the
past few years, considerable stimulus
has been given the growing of cab
bage through the sauerkraut factor
les, many of which contract at fair
prices for the entire output of cab
bage.
Many growers maintain that q cab
bage crop of nine tons per acre is a
better paying crop than corn, wheat
or oats under fair yields.
In some sections near the large
markets, many growers have been
driven out of business, so far as
cabbage culture is concerned, through
the ravages Of certain fungus diseases
affecting this plant. Much hope is
entertained of the possibility of secur-
ing disease-resistant strains.
This Is work that requires several
years for positive results. Sometimes
1t Is desirable even after securing
resistant plants to cross-breed these
with marketable strains, as it is often
the case that resistant strains or va
rieties are not high yielding or Of
desirable quality. 1t would even seem
profitable for growers to continue
desirable strains by selecting those Of
the proper type and yielding capacity.
The practice of purchasing seeds from
promiscous retailers often proves a
risky business. One need be no
specialist to note that many irregular
types, and low quality, poor yielding
strains are to be found throughout
the cabbage districts. This difficulty
can be remedied only by purchasing
from reliable seed houses, or by the
growing Of seed from carefully Sc
lected, home grown stock.
Prof. L. R. Jones of Wisconsin has
found that various commercial fer
tilizers, as we'll as soil disinfectants,
are wholly useless as preventive agents
for the control of this disease in in
fected SOIL For several seasons he
has turned his attention chiefly to.
ward the breeding of resistant strains
and reports most substantial prog
ress in this direction. In fields planted
with commercial varieties in 1910,
where the disease caused almost an
entire loss, the few naturally resistant
heads were selected and seed raised
therefrom in 1911. While CONNER
cial seed planted on infected fields
gave in 1912 only q per cent. of living
plants, the cabbage grown from the
resistant" seed developed sc per cent.
live plants, over half Of which formed
heads. Seed produced from the best
head gave SO per cent of properly ma
tured heads. These results show the
influence of careful selection and indi-
cate clearly the great possibilities that
lie in the use of home grown seed of
disease resistant strains.

Ensland's Oldest Bowling Green.

There are not wanting psychologists
who profess to be able to trace refer
ences to football and baseball on
Egyptian moral tablets. However,
when 1t comes to actual records, the
fine old English game Of bowls would
appear to be as old as any.
Southampton, Eng, has records
showing that one of the local bowling
greens was in existence in 1899.
Many interesting customs are asso

green. Every summer FIRE jack"

knighthood is conferred on the win

green while the other players gather
