No Joke.

At the Chicago Athletic club a
game had been put up on a cynical
old bachelor The man had waited
from eight to ten in the park on a
snowy evening in obedience to a
pale pink, violet-scented note that his
friends had faxed in order to see if
he was really as confirmed woman
hater as he claimed.
Turning up at the club for night
cap, the duped and frozen bachelor
was very sullen and sulky when his
friends derided him. He saw no fun
whatever in the fake note.
George AIDE. noticing his black and
lowering looks, gave a loud laugh and
said:
What a skinf1int you must be!
Won't even laugh at joke, Ell, if it's
at your own expense!"

SMALL VS.. LARGE
CHICKEN FLOCKS
Amateur Should Start With Few
Birds and Gradually Work
Up to Full Capacity.

It seems to be the ambition of the
average amateur to Immediately get
on top Of the heap. He sees no rea-
son why he cannot at once establish
a good income from poultry farming,
and the way he figures out results is
really. remarkable.
Do not his figures show that as he
made SO much profit on SO hens, he
can make ten times greater on 500?
He forgets that in the care of so
fowls he has plenty of time to supply
all their wants, and that they re-
ceived a greater variety Of food than
would be possible to give a flock ten
times larger. The table scraps alone
in the feeding of so fowls is an item
which cannot be overlooked and which
in all probability contributed more to
the results than anything else.
In a small flock an ai1ing fowl is
more readily noticed than it is in
a large flock, for the reason that the
keeper has more time to carefully in
spect. In q flock OF 500 the attend
ant must hurry up his work Of feeding
and watering and cleaning up, and he
at times only mechanically glances at
the birds.
Large focks necessitate the employ
ment Of extra labor and the hired
man" question is a serious one on the
poultry farm. It is difficult to secure
a man who will take the same interest
In the focks that you will He il
working more for wages than he ia for
the success of the plant.
The moral is this: Begin small,
grow gradually and stop growing
when your capacity is reached. If
hired help must be employed assign
some particular work to help, but let
the real personal management be in
your own hands. 1t is the only way
to make large poultry farm pay.

IMPROVEMENT OF
ALL LIVE STOCK
Good Ram on Bunch of Grade
Ewes Is in Many Cases More
Than Half of Flock.

By HOWARD HACKEDOM. Missouri
Starion0
The use of good sire is one OF the
recognized principles of improving the
live stock. This principle is generally
considered to be fundamental by all
breeders of live stock, both breeders
of pure bred stock and breeders of
animals for the open market. How
ever, some breeders through neglect,
or a lack Of knowledge and interest
in the improved types, use sires which
retard the general quality OF their
f1ocks and herds, rather than ad-
vance it.
Judging from the quality of native
lambs on the various Missouri mar
kets, lamb producers of this state are
realizing more fully each year the
economy of investing in good sires.
A good strong yearling ram should
be able to serve 80 ewes. A good
ram when used on block Of grade
ewes is in many cases more than half
the flock, because he viii usually have
greater ability to stamp his charac-
ter on the offspring than have the
ewes. So with small flock Of grade
ewes, worth from 81 to SO per head,
one can afford to purchase q good
mutton ram. As the value of the eve
flock increases one can afford a higher
class ram.

ESSENTIAL POINTS
IN CARE OF MILK
System of Safeguards Should Be
Observed in Dairy House and
While in Transit.

Milk is kept wholesome after leav-
ing the COWS by a system of safe
guards observed during milking in the
dairyhouse and while the milk is in
transit from the farm to the consum-
er.
The precautions observed during
the milking are steriliZed white duck
suits for the mixers, careful washing
of hands after each COW is MIXED,
milking through a sieve into the pail,
and straining the milk when 1t Is
poured from the pail into the can.
The foremilk, as the first milk that
is drawn is called, is also discarded,
thus preventing any bacteria which
may have found their way into this
part of the milk from getting into the
milk that is kept.
All the milk is exposed to the barn
air but a very few minutes and is
taken into the dairy just as soon as
the cans are filed.
The range of yield per pound OF
milk is very wide, 1t taking from
eight to ten pounds of the richest milk
up to 80 and over of the poorest to
make a pound of butter. The average
of common stock in the country Is
about 25 pounds. Anything between
that and 20 pounds of milk for q
pound of butter is good. Below this
is very good, and extra down to eight
and ten pounds is extraordinary. At
ten pounds to the imperial gallon.
eight quarts would be 20 pounds OF
milk

Most feeders find better results
from grinding corn for young lambs
although many feed whole grain very
successfully.
The big focks are going to the far
West all the time and are crowding
the cattle off Of the ranges.
One part sulphur and two parts salt
is an excellent combination for sheep.
1t should be placed where they can
always get at it.
Unless you actually love the work,
do not attempt to raise a flock Of
sheep. The shepherd must be in full
sympathy with his flock or else he
cannot be successful.
If you keep your sheep shut up in
a close pen without proper ventila-
ton they will catch cold when they
go out into the cold air.
Sheep will drink nothing but abso-
lutely clean water, and will suffer for
the lack of it.
A little oil meal fed twice a week
with the bran will prevent indigestion
in sheep.
Sheep should be changed from one
feed to another gradually. They are
delicate and cannot stand sudden
changes of feed any more than sud-
den changes of weather.
Never feed more than one-fourth
of a pound per day per head at the
start and when on full feed three or
four weeks later the limit should be
two pounds.
