SMALL VS.. LARGE
CHICKEN FL0CKS
Amateur Should Start With Few
Birds and Gradually Work
UP to Full Capacity.

II 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 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 ailing fowl is
more readily noticed than it is in
large flock for the reason that the
keeper has more time to carefully in
spect. In a flock of 500 the attend
ant must hurry up his work of feeding
and watering and cleaning up, and he
at times only mechanically chances at
the birds.
Large fiocks necessitate the employ.
ment of extra labor and the hired
man" question is a serious one on the
poultry farm. Ii is difficult to secure
a man who will take the same interest
in the focks that you will. He is
working more for wages than he is for
the success of the plant
The moral is this: Begin small
grow gradually and stop growing
when your capacity is reached. II
hired help must be employed assign
some particular work to help. but lei
the real personal management be in
your own hands. 1t is the only way
TO make a large poultry farm pay.

NOT A MIRACLE
Just Plain Cause and Effect.

There are some quite remarkable
things happening every day. which
seem almost miraculous.
Some persons would not believe that
man could suffer from coffee drink
Ing so severely as to cause spells OF
unconsciousness. And to find relief In
changing from coffee to Postum Is
we'll worth recording.
Il used to be great coffee drinker.
30 much so that it was killing mo by
Inches. My heart became so weak
would fall and lie unconscious for an
hour at time.
4 MY friends. and even the doctor,
told me 1t was drinking coffee that
caused the trouble. l would not be-
lieve 1t, and still drank coffee until
could not leave my room.
n Then my doctor. who drinks Pos
tum himself. persuaded me to stop cof-
Zee and try Postum. After much hest
tation | concluded to try 1t. That WAS
eight months ago. Since then l have
had but few of those spells, none for
more than four months.

All Ready for Their Oats.

injured an animal OF any kind by a
regular feed OF oats. They are neither
extremely heating nor fAttening in
their nature. but they tend, instead. to
build up muscles and give an animal
strength and vigor.
Az soon as the pastures fail is the
time that the calves need this add
ton to their ration. Either bring the
calves In to the stables night and
morning or else take the oats to the
pasture. and the gains the calves make
because OF this addition will pay all
costs. II at any time the calves are
allowed to grow thin in flesh It will
take long time of good feeding and
careful attention to bring them to a
thrifty condition. A growth each day

should aim for with his young animals

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 very few minutes and Is
taken into the dairy just as soon as
the cans are filled.
The range OF yield per pound OF
milk is very wide. it 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 rs pounds. Anything between
that and 20 pounds OF milk for
pound OF butter Is good. Below this
is very good, and extra down to eight
and ten pounds Is extraordinary. Al
ten pounds to the imperial gallon.
eight quarts would be 20 pounds OF
milk

Lambs should have their tails cut
on and be castrated In from seven
to ten days after birth.
Lambs just under ten months old
produce better meat at that age than
any other.
The best time to market lambs Is
between January and May.
Never keep more than twenty-five
or thirty sheep In one lot together
II possible.
The best time to have lambs to
come is about two weeks before pas
ture.
No every man can have pure bred
sheep but 1t ia not difficult to obtain
a pure bred ram.
II is not a good plan to keep sheep
housed up too closely. They should
open air.
AS long as a Sleeps coat Is kept
dry II can stand a good deal of cold
weather but rain and sleet are fatal
A rough boisterous hired man will
do more harm to a nock OF sheer
than he is worth This is particularly
true about Landing time.
Ground corn and cob meal makes ar
excellent food for lambs. but they
should be started on a small allow
| ance at first.
II sheep are turned on to alfalfa
pasture and allowed to eat all the,
want some OF them will die from
bloat.

DULL sleeves, suggesting a return Of
i the bishop type are seen in many
OF the latest gowns and fancy waists
and are likely to appear in the palmer
shirt waists for summer. There is an
cxtravagant use of embroidery on fiImy
garments, mingled with ruffIes, frilrs
and laces. The model of the separate
blouse shown below has beautiful de-
sign outlined with chenille.
Fichus are fashionable again. Some
are part of the waist on which they
appear, while others are separate style
ndjuncts to be had among the latest
novelties in ncckwear departments.

high stock collars will last over until

NN THE large figure facing the
~ right of this page (79S4) is a
most artistic evening gown of Japanese
chiffon, fabric which hangs very grace
fully. 1t has cream ground, with the
design in dull brown and leaf green
tones; and made over apple-grecn satin
messaline, the color scheme is fascinat-
ing. Jet banding and a jet ornament
are effective though simple trimming.
The peasant ovcrblousc Is slashed on
the shoulder. This design is one which
may be adapted for a variety of ma
terials, and practical for the woman
who fashions her own evening dresses.
The tunic overdress, slightly draped
and raised in front like an Empire
gown, suggests a way of applying new
transparent material to a foundation
dress that may have done service be-
fore. The fuller hip fashions require a
larger quantity of material, and the
softer fabrics, such as chiffon cloth,
voiles, or satin charmeuse, or cotton
summer materials are chosen to carry
out the effects as they should be.

RAILROAD CROSSING DANGERS

IT HE many recent accidents at
l railroad crossings prompt a
mention 10 the dangers at Pencad-
er. This crossing is at the june
ton of the Delaware City Road,
Center Branch and Main line. The
increasing freight traffic from
down the peninsula necessitates
considerable shifting. While CON-
plants have done away with the
blocking of the crossing, the trains
and shifting engines apparently
waiting orders, stand within a few
feet of the crossing. During the
past week, there have been several
narrow escapes from runaways at
this point. Last Friday a horse
became frightened at escaping
steam from an engine standing, it
is reported, less than ten feet from
the driveway. The horse reared
and fell on the track. Several COM
plants and our own observations
lead us to strongly advise more eau
ton at this point.
1t is understood that there is a
rule that trains shall stand at least
60 feet from road crossings. If so,
it being violated at this point
daily and authorities are urged to
better protect the public.
