Tag your shipments.
Straw and hay make good nesting
material
Always test the hen on china or
nest eggs before setting.
The yolk OF the egg spoils much
quicker than the white.
The most profitable period for fat
tening isabout four weeks.
Use insect powder freely to exter-
inmate lice when necessary.
Broody hens should be moved to
the permanent sitting nest at night.
The machine should be operated ac-
cording to the manufacturers direc-
tons.
Our American breeds fatten very
readily, making them ideal market
poultry.
To get eggs avoid over feeding, but
do not starve. Give plenty of milk If
you have it.
Eggs saved for Matching purposes
should not be subjected to high or
low temperatures.
Given proper care and attention, the
hen is the most valuable incubator
for the farmer. e.s
Overlooking of green cut bone is
apt to cause leg troubles, diarrhoea,
bowel complaints and worms.
The incubator should be located in
a room where the temperature does
not vary. much during the day or
night

Let them wait SO to 4S hours. That's
natures way.
The beginner finds many stumbling
blocks in the artificial methods, but
experience soon shows the trick OF
how easily to step over them.

Conveniences on the Farm.

The saving-of time and labor on the
farm means the saving of money If
farm help and farm management are
worth anything This is often accom-
plished by the little contriviances, the
conveniences that in themselves do
not cost much, but in the aggregate
of things attained emphasize the inn
portance of careful investigation OF
labor saving devices, be they ever so
simple 1t is an evidence of intelli-
gence, rather than otherwise, to see
the wagon shed and tool house sup
piled with these helps. As an illus
tration, what greater saving of labor
can be accomplished than by the use
of set of steel wheels which can be
readily adjusted to any farm wagon?
The farm wagon of all uses should be
the steel wheel truck, because of its
cheapness, its everyday utility and
common-sense application to farm
needs. What is true OF the low down
farm wagon as labor saver is true of
scores of other inventions. Whenever
a labor saving device appeals to you
as of service in your work, a real la
Dor saver, buy it and use it.

Milk Carries Germs.

Milk may convey the active agent
of some of our transmissible diseases.
Cows having tuberculosis of the udder

This milk may be sent to creamery

which may be free from tuberculosis.
Hogs are frequently fed on skim milk
from creameries, and this may be the
reason why so many hogs are con
demned by the meat inspectors every
year from tuberculosis.

SELECTION OF RIGHT BREED
OF POULTRY.
Leghorns, Minorcas and Other Small
Fowls Are Best for Eggs.

DO you want poultry for meat pro-
ducers' Do you want poultry for egg
producers? Or do you want poultry
which will combine as we'll as possible
the production of both meat and eggs !?
The answer to this question, says
the Oklahoma Farmer, will help great
ly in your selection, for if you desire
a meat breed, selection should be
made from the Asiatcs or Cornish,
or perhaps an Asiatic-American first
cross. If this cross is used the cross
ing should not Be carried on beyond
the first generation, and it is rarely
advisable at all
If you want egg production, you
may select from the Leghorns, Mi
norcas. Anconas, Campines, Butter.
cups and others of the smaller breeds
However, in the majority OF cases
the general purpose fowl will be found
best adapted to the farmer who wishes
to keep few chickens as side line.
For this purpose the American breeds,
such as the Plymouth Rocks, the Wy
andottes, the Reds, etc, and the Eng
lish breeds particularly the Orping
tons, are about equally adaptable.
Does your market have any prefer
ence as to the color of the skin of the
dressed fowl? Many markets do, and
will pay enough more so that it pays
to cater to this choice If the market
prefers yellow skin, the Orpingtons
and Langshans will be eliminated at
the outset, for they have white skins
On the contrary, if the market wishes
a white skin, you cannot use the Ply
mouth Rocks, Wyandottes or Reds
Does your market have a preference
as to the color OF the eggs? In some
cases this market prefence takes the
form of premium of five to eight
cents per dozen more for eggs of the
preferred color 1t is always advis-
able to give the markets what they
call for and will pay for, SO, if your
market has a particular desire as to
the color of the egg. select your breed
accordingly.

SUMMER TILLING IS ONE PART
OF BETTER FARMING.
A Line of Work That is Not Gener-
ally Understood.

Summer tilling is one part of better
or scientific farming that applies to
sections of the country where the
rainfall is light and untimely, and
where irrigation is not available,
writes II. W. Campbell in Dry Farm
ing. 1t is a line of work that is far
from being generally understood or
appreciated, for the reason that many
know nothing about it, and many
! more, not understanding the princi-
Piles have made mistakes in attempting
to carry out the work.
1t is so easy for us to be content in
the thought that we are doing all
right, when we really are quite wrong.
Then, again, our mind is drawn to
other fields of work that we conceive
to be more important, causing us to
relax our consideration of the summer
titled fields, during which time they
deteriorate, either through the loss Of
moisture by direct evaporation from
excessive heat following rain or
through the growth of weeds.
AT no time between the harvest of
one crop and the seeding of the next
crop should field be neglected 1t
is not alone during the growing of a
crop that the field needs close atten-
ton. If it is possible the field should
never be allowed to lose all its mois-
ture for there is no time when the
available plant food may be increased
through natures own medium as rap
idly as when field has no crop grow
ing. providing soil conditions are
right.
The difference in the yield OF grain
from the fields handled just right as
compared with other fields where
work is not correctly done, or slight
eros occur, is SO marked that we
cannot but insist more and more that
/ before the high limit of progress can
be attained in the semi-arid belt there
must be closer attention to details.
Not nfrequently slight error in sum
mer tilling will make a difference of
10 to IL bushels in the yield of wheat.
Timeliness of work done is one of
the vital requisites. As soon as one
crop is removed the work should be
gin by loosening the surface and de
stroying all weeds or volunteer
growth. The disk harrow is the best
and almost the only tool that will
accomplish this successfully. This
implement should be used by tapping
half, thus double disking, cutting
to depth of three inches. This
will leave loose mulch of about four
and a half inches, which stops the up
ward movement and evaporation OF
the moisture in the soil below, causing
it to accumulate in the top of the firm
soil Just below the loosened soil or
mulch Further advantage of this
loosening is found in the more ready
percolation or soaking down of the
later rains as they come.
To get all moisture possible into
the soil below and retain it there is
the one great problem. And until this
point is fully appreciated both as to
the extent that it can be done, and
what it really means to the future
crops when it is done, we shall never
see the progress and successful de-
velopment of the semi-arid sections
that are possible.

Pork Production.

When farmers recognize the posi-
bility of exclusive pork production as
a specialized branch of animal indus
try and evolve systems of farm man
agement adapted to the business, it
will become attractive as a business
proposition and herds of well-bred
hogs will become common in many
localities where few good hogs are
now seen.

SCORE IN FOUR TO TWO

Waterviile, Me, June 2S.-(SpeciaD.-
In the annual commencement game
here today the Colby Varsity was de-
feated by the Alumni team, to 2. As
the Alumni had had no practice for
the game the Varsity battery played
for them and this made the contest
more interesting than it would proba-
bly, would have otherwise been. Allen
ard Sturtevant were the battery for
the regular team and seemed perfectly
at home there though they have not
played befone this year.
The game was attended by large
numper of alumni, who were costumed
by classes and marched to the field be-
hind a band cheering the various build
ings on the campus on their way to
the field. Among the members of the
alumni team were bill" Cowing, who
caught Jack Coombs while he was in
college, Sturtevant. captain a few
years ago, and Larrabee of the class
of 1887, who performed on second base
in way that many younger player
might we'll envy and also delivered a
nice nit There was much cheering
and good-natured fun throughout the
game and the alumni seemed pleased
that they we're able to show the young
sters how the game used to be played.
The game started poorly for the old
err players, as the Varsity scored two
runs on errors in the first inning.
However, James frightened UP after
this and allowed no more scoring. In
the third the graduates produced their
first run by Lowney's three-base drive
and Clukey's single. Lowney hit safe
ly again in the sixth. stole second and
came home on James hit over short
stop. Larrabee got a fine cheer in the
seventh when he copnected for sin
gle between first and second. He went
to second on Blake's hit and both were
advanced by Bagnall's sacrifice. Then
the game was won by Harlow's hit
which brought in both men.
Lowrey had a good day with the bat,
but a passed bali let in a run in the
first inning. James pitched good
game, keeping the hits we'll scattered
and fielding his position in good shape.
Willard played fine game at short
stop for the Varsity. The score:

If this commission had been in
