STRANGE MARKINGS
IN CROSSED BREEDS
Not Only Chickens, But Ducks
Produce Odd Feathers-HintS
on Breeding and Feeding.

1t IS odd the strange markings we
ties of fowls known. Crossing the male
of one breed with the hens of another
has, in every instance I have known,
produce a differently marked chick
from that of the chicks produced by
crossing the hens of the first breed
with the males Of the second For in
stance, crossing Barred rock male
with a hen of certain game breed,
you get all barred chicks, but cross
the rooster of this game breed to
Barred Rock hens, and you get all
black. Sometimes in crossing one of
of another will produce penciled fowls
If the rooster of first breed is mated
with second, and spotted rooster of
second breed is mated with hens of
the first Not only this, but the shape
of the first may be bulky, while that
of the second is long and gangly.
Ducks, too, show strange markings
when crossed, sometimes the cross
looking exactly as some of our oddly
marked ducks that, as far as we know,
do not enter at all into the past breed
Ding Of either cross. Once, in mating
a black top-knot rooster with
white hen, breed of each then un-
known to me, l produced a white fowl
showing but one black spot, the top
knot eliminated. | used these chicks
male and female, and interbred them
Result, always a white chick with
black spot somewhere on it's coat
never twice in same place
Some people like to line breed, but
scarcely know how to begin Line
breeding proper is simply starting
with, say, a finely marked hen of the
standard breed required, and a male
Of same requirement, neither in any
way related, both picked from vigor-
Gus f1ocks. In second year, the puIlets
Of this mating are bred back to their

mother. This should be kept up until

Too much Importance cannot be
placed upon the maintenance of till
age, in its relation to the profitable
production of small fruits In the
case of the newly set strawberry bed,
this work should begin as soon as the
plants are set
A tool that is almost indispensable
is horse weeder. This work is start
ed with this tool as soon as the plants
are all in, and we use it more or less
during the growing season. One of
the chief values of this tool is that
the teeth work the ground up close
to the plants, thus doing away with
much Of the wedding and hand hoeing
that IS necessary where dependence
is placed upon the ordinary horse cul-
tlvator. OF course we use cultiva-
tor occasionally to maintain the re-
CURED thickness of the dust blanket
for the weeder is but surface work
ing tool, and when we commence lay
ing the new plants the use of the
weeder must be discontinued until
such time as the rows are filled out
and the plants well rooted. Then the
weeder may again be used until cult
walton is discontinued in the late sum-
mer or early fall
The maintenance of tillage is impor-
tant from four points of view: First,
moisture conservation. Moisture is as
important to the plant growth as is
plant food. The presence of an album
dance of plant food in soil will avail
nothing If there is no soil moisture
present by means of which this food
may be taken up by the roots of the
plants and carried 20 its various parts
Continuous cultivation secures the
dust blanket which checks the upward
flow Of water holding in the soil and
plant life. By this means q newly set
strawberry plantation may be carried
through the severest drought
AS secondary result of this dust
blanket protection, ideal conditions are
maintained in the soil for the proper
working Of the soil life and that loose
condition Of soil maintained SO neces-

sary to the freest and fullest root de-
velopment
BY the same means soil aeration is
also preserved. Thorough work in the
maintenance Of tillage also prevents
weed growth. Weeds in a strawberry
crop are in every sense robbers They
rob the plants of food, moisture, air
and sunshine. 1t is possible, too, that
the question of kinds Of weeds acts
as poison to strawberry plants. Weeds
should be kept out of a strawberry
bed because Of the appearance Of
shiftlessness their presence there i'm
parts, If for no other.
Maintenance of tillage, too, pre-
serves that necessary ideal condition
to root quickly and easily. This is no
small consideration.
In the case of strawberries we aim
to keep about two inches Of the sur
face soil loose, except near the crown.
Here we do not stir the soil more than
an inch deep In bush-fruit culture
we cultivate three Or four inches deep.
Cultivation should begin in bush
fruits as soon as the ground can be
worked up mellow and continued un.
til the berry harvest is over, the mid
die or latter part of August.
A red-raspberry plantation has been
carried through a drought, when no
rain Of any consequence fell after
June 1 until berry harvest was over,
and, a fair crop secured of fruit and
a fairly good growth of new canes,
too. Without this cultivation the crop
would have been a failure and the
growth Of new canes insignificantly
small.
The frequency Of cultivation neces-
sary to preserve ideal conditions de-
ponds upon the nature of the soil and
frequency of showers Soils of clay
nature require more and deeper cult
walton than the lighter sand soils. A
crust should not be allowed to form
at any time during the growing sea-
son, no matter how frequently the soil
has to be stirred to prevent this.

Look After Borers.

The fat-iieaded borer needs to be
looked after. Keep trees in healthy
condition and stimulate them to make
vigorous growth increasing flow of sap
that will destroy young larvae. Give
tree trunks coat of alkaline wash made

until no more will dissolve, then add

may mate as far out as it is possible
to in the relationship. This is for small
yards. Should the farmer start line

command for separate pens and yards,
he can start in with from five to ten

SALE
Proteina, which is a product of soy
beans, is now taking the place of meat
in many western poultry yards. Soy
beans are rich in protein People
often ask what are the meat foods
used in the poultry business? How
must I feed them, and how often?
Well, there are meat scraps, which
may be flesh or liver, boiled and cut
in small bits. Some of it is horse
meat, some the bits of meat left about
any beef shop-pork, beef, mutton
Some of it again Is the refuse of chick
ems about the poultry killing houses.
Next is meat meal, dried blood, dried
fish, fresh cut bone, skim and butter
milk. Meat scraps contain highest
per cent of protein Some poultry
keepers feed the animal foods, unless
it may be milk but three times a
week, giving each fowl two table
spoonfuls at meal. Others give this
amount, or half, every day in the
mash. Milk can safely be fed every
DAY. Some poultry keepers, going in
heavily for winter eggs, keep meat
scrap in hoppers always before the
hens.-I. M S.

know many people addicted to the
