Aztecs who had their life and being
centuries ago., while fresh mounds
mark the consignment to the grave of
the latest inhabitant.

the beautiful city of Guanajuanto. Sur
rounding the spot is a wall built Of
masonry, IL feet high and IL feet
thick. The entrance to the little plot
is by massive gate. -
The wall is honeycombed on the in
side with holes about Is inches square,
some of which are open, while others
are sealed with cement. 1t is said
that there are about 5000 of these

Apply Lime to Acid Soils.

The only economic neutralizer, or
corrective, for soil acidity which is
within the reach of the farmer is
lime. Ordinarily one thinks of lime
as that material used in the making
of plaster and mortar Throughout
the agricultural world today, however,
the word lime" has taken on very
general meaning 1t not only includes
burnt lime. or quicklime, ground lime
stone, mari, pulverized shells, and
marble dust. These different mate
rials, with the exception of burnt lime
and water Stacked lime, are common
ly spoken of as Carbonate of lime,
or lime carbonate because they con

MEAT AND GRAIN FOR FOOD
There is Danger of Overlooking Pro-
TEN Rations in Egg Business.

Food containing protein are given
cows to invcrease the milk production,
and hens to increase the quantity of
eggs and improve their quality. The
darlyman understands full we'll that
IN feeding grains which furnish pro-
TEN, to cows, a sufficient quantity of
succulcnt food must be given to for
mulate the proper balance. Yet this
same man protests when it is suggest
ed that the same rule should apply to
laying hens. The proper feeding of
poultry is not so difficult as one would
think, nor is the feeding of any ami
NAL, for that matter.
If one possesses a knowledge of the
needs of the animal he is feeding, he
VIII readily find out what foods will
supply such needs Feed the variety
of grains by all means as we'll as an
occasional supply of animal food. This
same rule works the other way, so do
not attempt to obtain results from
green foods and grain at the expense
of the animal food. In some way get
at the properly balance ration and
then profitable results will follow.

Poulty Notes.

II you have earth floors in your
poultry house, after scraping off the
top layer douse the ground thick with
some disinfectant before putting on
the new layer of fresh dirt or gravel,
Poultry droppings make rich
ground; many a poultry keeper has
made his garden plot too rich with
this form of fertilizer and been forced
to haul a poor grade of earth to mix
with the garden soil and bring IT away
from its over-fertility
After the hcavy-laying duck is
through laying you find that she Is
nearly all bone, the fat having gone
into the eggs She must gather on
more fat before she can take another
round at laying If well fattened be
fore winter. even some of the breeds
that as a rule only lay in the spring
may lay while in the fall Ducks
brought on a new place in the spring
often refuse TO lay at all that first
season through This argues for buy
ing breeding ducks in the fall.

Coed Recipe for Whitewash.

To make excellent whitcwash that
is easily applied, get a sack of ordin-
AIRY hard wall plaster and slit out the
hair with a piece of window screen
then mix with cold water and apply
at once. Make it thick or thin as you
like but do not mix more than you
will use in an hour or so at one time.
You can use a whitewash brush but a
kalsomine brush is better ii you can
afford it, and if you have much OF 1t
to do. will be cheapest in the long
run. Wash your brush thoroughly IN
clear water every time you stop for
noon or night and it will last long
time This is equal to a package I'm
ishes that sell for high prices.

SOW ALFALFA IN EARLY FALL.
All Danger of Interference From
Weeds is Avoided.

A great many people who SOW al
falfa in the spring complain that the
weeds take it." They do in great
many instances. Weeds and alfalfa
will not be able to occupy the same
ground. One or the other must gain
the upper hand in short order, and
the weeds are the more enduring and
the harder TO conquer. AS conse-
quence the alfalfa is smothered out
by them, and along in the middle OF
the summer you hear another mar
proclaiming that alfalfa is no good
Weeds have caused more alfalfa
failures than sour lands, wet SOILS or
poor seeded preparation. The danger
is particularly great where the seed
ing is done in the spring. Every
weed seed in the soil is fighting for
air enough and warmth enough to
sprout, and after it sprouts it will
fight for room enough to make its
growth. Alfalfa is not particularly
vigorous plant in its first few days Of
life, and it is the first few days that
count in the growth of alfalfa versus
weeds.
On account of the danger from in
reference by the weed crop, ii is
usually better to SOW alfalfa in the
fall, or in the late summer. 1t will be
time and money saved to put in the
seed in the summer following of the
land, stirring the soil enough TO keep
down each successive weed crop. The
soil stirring will not only get rid of
the weeds that have come up, but
it will stimulate the remaining seeds
that are lying i'll the soil to germina
ton and growth. In this way several
successive seedlings OF weeds can be
disposed of and the ground left fairly
clear for the summer or fall seeding
OF alfalfa
Winter or early spring blowing will
go long way toward preparing 1
good seeded for the fall sowing of
alfalfa If the ground needs it, turn
under considerable quantities OF ma
nure when it is broken. If lime is
needed. this should be spread before
the blowing and turned under so If
will have a chance to thoroughly mix
with and sweeten the earth.

Bronchitis and Pneumonia.

Bronchitis is a severe inflamma-
tubes While there might be a dis
charge from the nostrils, as in sim
pie catarrh, yet. as rule, the inf1am-
nation confines itself to the windpipe
and bronchia The bird soon becomes
listless, and here we have the real
wheeling and whistling sound in the
throat, and great difficulty in getting a
full breath Warm, dry quarters must
be provided and the bird fed soft
mash food. Steaming the throat with
boiling hop water at frequent inter
walls, with ten drops of turpentine inter
nally in large tablespoonful of castor
oil. quite often cuts the attack short
Pneumonia in fowls is usually proceed
ed by inflammation of the lungs Undue
ed by severe changes of weather to
which the fowl is exposed. A diff
Guilty in breathing, great thirst, droop-
ing feathers, extreme lassitude and
quick death are the usual symptoms
and their speedy end, Place the bird
in warm, quiet room. Steaming the
throat with burning tar, or turpentine
burned on hot lids, with quinine, two
or three grains day, and forcing
linseed tea down the throat, are rec
commended as best remedies.

Simple and Malignant Catarrh.

In the simple form of catarrh the
birds gapes, sneezes and watery dis
charge appears in the notris. There
may appear a snoring sound in the
throat at night or in the worst cases
the fowl may whceze like one with
asthma. The fowls may present a
droopy appearance if the depression
is deep. This form requires but lit
tie medicine. Stimulating food, a
tonic and dry quarters will effect 4
cure. In the malignant form, desig
mated roup by most poultrymen, the
discharge from mouh and nostrils be
comes thick and bad smelling, ulcers
and cheesy deposits show in the throat
and mouth, the eyes swell and may
bursts. Quarantine and antiseptic
treatment to mouth, throat and eyes
and keeping up the strength with a
tonic treatment are the main helps
in this.

Digestive Diseases.

The following diseases belong to
the list of digestive troubles in fowls
catarrhal stomatis, pip, inflamma-
ton of the inestines, croupous angina
and dipthera-this last being consid
cred in bird as due to some diges-
tive trouble as its first cause The
digestive diseases are mainly due to
errors in feeding, or eating poisoned
or moldy foods.
Pip is simply any one of the forms
of mouth inflammation. In these tro-
bles the mouth and tongue seem lit
orally to dry up and thicken. The sys-
tenn of the bird must be toned up with
a good fowl tonic, and plenty of
soft, nourishing food given it. The
mouth may be moistcned with glycer-
ing until the thick membrane loosens
and comes off.
Thrush, canker and chickenpox bear
a close resemblance in many cases.
Tonic treatment good food and wash
the mouth with boric acid, thirty
grains of the acid dissolved in two
ounces of water. This must be ap-
piled frequently.
Croupous angina is caused first
from an inhamed condition of the ira
chea and crop, White sores appear
on the .inhamed surface, the bird
seems to be suffering from Group, the
heart fails and it dies instantly. 1t
is caused by eating bad food or drink
ing filthy water Inflamed crop is
found in fowls that have eaten of poi
onous foods, dead rats or other pu-
trid animal stuff; picking at painted
boards or any corrosive stuff such as
quicklime, or something too heavily
salted
