POULTRY NOTES.
Gather eggs daily.

Gather eggs daily
Gull out small eggs
The goose averages about thirty
eggs.
Geese do not thrive when yarded
ducks do.
The goose, like the duck, has prac-
hcally no crop.
4 The average weight of the goose is
twice that of the duck.
Geese pair, but brakes will take care
OF four or more mates.
A hen left to shift for herself may
lay in summer but seldom will in win
ter.
Are you figuring on entering one or
two pens in the poultry show, if not,
begin now.
Before packing and shipping poul-
try should be thoroughly dry and cold
but not frozen
l.imberneck is caused by the fowls
eating some dead animal matter that
has bred maggots.
The goose is a grazing bird, while
the duck thrives with a limited amount
of green food.
Don't forget to sprinkle lime ON
drop boards, not too much, for it is
hard on the chickens feet.
Meat in some form must be fed
poultry at least twice week-also
green food if you want to get results
A good dry mash for layers: Two
parts bran, part cornmeal, part
alfalfa meal and part beef scrap,
Ducks can be prohtably bred for
four years, geese can be bred Tor
many years-for a period that seems
incredible
Fifty hens with abundant room,
care and proper feed will return more
cash than one hundred carelessly fed
and crowded
Dust the hen with insect powder
before setting. and twice more while
Matching then chicks will not be full
of lice to begin with.
After hens have passed their period
of profitable laying 1.-TWO or three
years., they may be sold at little loss
on their first cost.

A State Detention Home.

A few weeks ago State Detention
Home was dream. The idea was in
PRODUCED at the annual meeting of the
Federation in Goldiield by a talk from
Superintendent Thompson, who told
of the numerous instances where boys
and girls in Goldheld might have been
saved when their little offenses against
the public were first begun, and that
through no adequate home or school
training one at least of these child
rem had cost the State several humid
red dollars and was likely to land in
the penitentiary The chairman of
legislation was to advocate the pass
age OF bill providing such home,
but with little hope of doing more this
session than to agitate the question.
Later the Grand Jury of Esmeralda
county sent Judge Somers with reso-
buttons to the Governor and the Legis-
lature asking that they pass an appro-
priation for such purpose. After
Judge Somers had talked to the legis-
lators resolutions were offered and
passed asking that bill be introduced.
Then Elko came forward and one of
its citizens donated a ten-acre tract of
good land for the site of the State
Detention Home and the city prom
ised to raise $1,000 if the State appro-
priated like sum, This the legis-
lature may well do, since in December
there reverted to the State over $1,000.

Old Meadows.

Old meadows generally are lacking
in nitrogen, which is most easily sup
piled by the application of nitrate OF
soda at the rate OF 800 to 900 pounds
per acre. The only way to be sure
of the kind of fertilizer to apply is to
make trials of different mixtures and
find out which gives the best results.
In most places the application OF barn
yard manure and cutting up the mead
ow with disc will be more likely
to give profitable returns than will the
application of commercial fertilizers.

Gentlemen: Whereas, The Equal
Franchise Society of Nevada believes
that it is of vital Importance to the
State that the half of its citizens now
unrepresened in its government be en-
tranchsed as soon as possible. in order
that Nevada may not present the only
black spot on the Equal Franchise
Map of the Pacific Coast States and
that women who desire to enter this
State as citizens from neighboring
States may not thereby be disfran-
chised; and
Whereas, The experience of Califor-
mia and Arizona has proved the wis
dom and efficiency of brief and en-
ergetic campaign of few months in
contrast to one of twenty months
duration; and
Whereas, 1t is the desire of this So
ment without mourning unnecessary
expense to the State,
Now, therefore, be it resolved by
this Society in annual convention as
sembled; That we express to the
hiSiiDCIS vi tlS legislature Oh Nevada
our full appreciation of the hearty
support given by your honorable body
in favor of the enfranchisement OF the
women of Nevada and we respect
fully request the assistance of your
honorable body in obtaining the sub
