THE SPRING CLEANUP
Housecleaning in the Poultry Yard
S. F. PIERCE

With the coming of spring, when fowls
spend more time out of doors, the poul-
tryman should don his oyeralls and
Jumper and set things briskly TO rights.
There are the houses to clean out, disin-
feet and whitewash; fences to look over
and possibly mend; yards to rake up,
spade and SOW to rye or oats; brooders
and brooding coops to paint and clean
and colony houses to get in shape.
The poultry house should be done
thoroughly. Clean out all litter and sand
on the floor, take out the nest boxes
(which should never be attached to the
WALL, burn all nesting material and
then whitewash with well-slaked lime
to which has been added some good dis
infectant or carbolic acid in the proper
ton of one and one-half fluid ounces to
one gallon of whitewash, and the east
est way to apply this is TO use small
compressed air sprayer, which comes for
the purpose. Go over the entire house
with broom and whitewash it, making
sure the whitewash gets into every
crack and corner. After the house has
dried out put in four or five inches OF

sand or drv earth on the floor and over
it six inches of litter.
Resetting the Fences
The fence may need resetting, as the
frost often heaves the posts out Oh
plumb. If new posts are needed, up
the butts in some creosote preparation
in order to preserve them, and do not
waste time and money on cheap wlre'
for it soon rusts and is always hard TO
keep in shape. If heavy woven wire is
used. the corner and gate posts should
be heavier than the line posts, and have
cross pieces made of 2 by 6-inch mate
rial nailed to the butts, one SIX inches
from the end and the other on the oppo-
site side two feet from the butt end,
to serve as anchors and prevent loosen
ing
OF course the double yard system is
the best for yarded fowls-that is, each
pen has the run of front and back
yard, and while they are using one
crop of oats or rye is planted in the
other. As soon as the green blades are
up three inches, the fowls are turned
into it and the other yard dug up and
planted. However, if space is lacking,
the only alternative is to keep the yard
free from filth by spading it every two
weeks or so, and fruit tree set in the
yard will provide shade, yield good
supply of luscious fruit, and add anoth-
er bit of pleasant green to the surround
ings. Plums seem to do particularly
we'll in the poultry yard. In setting
them out, however, provide protection to
the roots by laying stones around the
trees or the fowls will soon destroy
them.

THE BUSINESS
FARMERS CORNER
THE IMPORTANCE OF LEGUME
CROPS
JOHN HENDERSON

Among various causes that have led
to the abandonment of land once cult
waited there is no doubt that the great
est single cause has been the failure to
utilize legume crops. Without the ra-
tional use of legumes in a rotation, the
depletion of nitrogen and the conse-
quent falling off in productivity are GER
tain to occur"
The above statement is made by the
department of agriculture in connection
with the use of legume crops in rotation
methods of farming. 1t is rarely pos
sible to keep up the supply OF nitrogen
from the humus derived from non-le-
guminous plants.
"There are sixteen important legu-
minous field crops in the United States
namely, red clover, alfalfa, cowpeas,
alsike clover, crimson clover, white clo-
yer, soy beans, peanuts, Canada peas,
hairy vetch, common vetch, velvet beans,
Japan clover, sweet clover, and beggar
weed.
"In comparatively few cases does it
happen that one of these legumes can be
used in place of another" continues the
statement. Ceases in which there is a
choice are red clover, alfalfa, alsike clo-
yer and sweet clover; soy beans, pea
nuts and Japan clover; crimson clover,
hairy vetch and bur clover; velvet beans
and beggar weed. The department has
been frequently asked by farmers, where
there Is a choice of legumes adapted
to the same purpose, which one adds
the most nitrogen to the SOIL.
Choosing Legumes
"To some extent this is determined
| by the amount of nitrogen contained In
| the crop. Thus, of 1000 pounds of green
plants cowpeas contain on the average
81 pounds, common vetch Al pounds,
Canada peas 4.3 pounds, mammoth clo-
yer A pounds, crimson clover 40
pounds, velvet beans 5.4 pounds, hairy
vetch SIS pounds, sweet clover 30
pounds, alsike clover go pounds, soy
beans 6.5 pounds, red clover 6S pounds,
alfalfa IA pounds, and bur clover so
pounds of nitrogen.
Additional advantages considered
more or less important in connection
with green manuring are based on the
root structure of the plant. Unques'
tionably legumes with stout roots which
penetrate the soil to considerable depths
do have a somewhat similar effect to
subsoiler and, furthermore, put yegeta-
Bile matter at depths which shallow
rooted plants cannot reach,
investigations prove the high value
| Of the common legume crops, whether
used in rotation or as green manure
crops. Results obtained from their use
are far more striking in poor soils than
in rich soils"

ADOPTING BEES
Not a Hazardous Undertaking

If the amount of time required to
look after bees successfully is considered,
in proportion to the revenue derived, the
most indifferent must regard beekeep-
ing a very sound investment.
A beginner with bees would do well
to visit some one who keeps them and
spend the day learning the ins and outs
of their management--ho to tell the
queens, workers and drones, about the
opening of hives and handling of frames.
But before buying any bees send for a
hive and study all its parts. Usually
bees are bought hive and all, but fire.
quently the hive is not the right sort
and the bees have to be transferred.
An outfit of five hives and all necessary
tools for starting can be bought for
about Sll. A good, select, tested queen,
suitable for starting with, will cost SO.
Start with a one-frame nucleus in each
hive, which, if properly managed, viii
make strong colonies by fall. These will
cost 81 each

Bees Easily Suited.

Location is not important. The town
or village dweller will find the rear of
the lot the best place. The ground
about the hives should be kept smooth
and the grass mown. Never keep bees
near the highway, or lawsuits may re-
suit from bee stings. Too much shade
is as bad for bees as too little. Strike
happy medium, and if the hives are
exposed to strong wind build wind
break of some kind to protect them.
Bees are divided into two classes
workers and drones. The Italians are
the most profitable and the easiest to
handle, being very gentle. The Italian
worker bee has a distinguishing char
acteristic-namely, three yellow bands.
The workers make all the honey and u.s.
ually work themselves to death in three
months, while the drones live even a
shorter time. The queen often lives
four or five years, as she does very little
outdoor work.
Every swarm has queen, whose duty
consists in laying eggs for Matching
future workers and drones, and a
healthy queen will lay during her life
time from 100000 to 100000 eggs.
Swarming is generally the result of a
colony outgrowing its hive, but by using
large hives this will be in a measure
prevented.
Bees must be able to find plenty of
honey bearing plants in order to pro-
duce honey. The Eastwood ranks next
to alfalfa, sage and white clover as the
best honey producer. Buckwheat and
all kinds of flowers supply bees with
honey making material An average
of 80 pounds of honey per hive can be
counted on in good seasons.
