manage to live through the bitterest
weather, and | think the nearer the
domestic bird is left to himself, the
better he will do.
A close house is not so good for
chickens as one where there is plenty
of ventilation. OF course, would
not want to expose any bird to a wind
that would freeze combs and feet, but
the open shelter seems to be enough
to keep the turkeys from suffering any
such troubles from exposure.
From one end of the year to the
other my turkeys roost in the open.
In the spring they desert the shed as
soon as the weather moderates, and
take to the trees and higher fences.
They lay well, and start nesting at
once. I lose few young ones when
they get out in the wet fields, but
most of them grow up hardy and Wig
orous.
In nearly every case where | know
of turkeys becoming unthrifty and dy-
ing off, they have been kept housed
up through the winter and most of the
summer The confinement Is hard on
them. They are naturally a bird OF
the open.
have had few broods of turkeys
Matched under the Plymouth Rock or
Brahma hens that liked to roost in
the Enclosed shelters. They never did
very much good. Their plumage was
never bright and clean looking, and
their wattles and heads always looked
sort of bloodless and unhealthy. 1t
was easy to pick them out from birds
that grew up and roasted out OF doors.
The turkey is only little way re-
moved from his wild forbears He is
not nearly so domesticated as the
chicken. The nearer the turkey ID
permitted to live to nature, the bet
ter he will grow, and the more money
he will be worth when cooped for the
winter markets.

HOUSE FOR DUCKS AND GEESE
Birdie viii Stand Low Temperature II
Sheltered From Wind and Snow
and Given Dry Bedding.

(By c. e. BROWN, Poultryman, Crooks
ton, MINI, Experiment Station.)
Ducks and geese will stand rather
low temperatures II they are sheltered
from the wind and snow and the floor
is well bedded with clean, dry straw.
They should be given their liberty
whenever they choose to go outside.
Their shelter should open toward the
south. A house of this style is a splen-
did shelter for ducks and geese and
costs very little to build. The ducks
and geese run together in the house
except at feeding time, when the ducks
are fed at separate trough.

How the Children Graded.

An experiment carried on recently
with school children to determine how
the foreign born compared with the
native born shows how marked In ef-
feet the environment in this country
has on immigrants. 1t was found that
the children with. the lowest standing
in school were foreign born. The next
lowest were those born Of foreign-born
parents; the next after them were of
parents born in this country, and the
highest were those whose grandpar-
ents or great-grandparents were born
here.

NEW YORK, April 2-Sugar prices

arbitrary freight rate, it was testified

Of a Wheeling grocery firm in the
hearing Of the governments dissolu.

Refining Company. The members of
the organization, however, were not
obliged to sell at the prescribed
price said the witness, though a list
sent out by w. G.. McConaughey
president of the association, stated
what prices should obtain.
Mr. Maxwell gave it as his opinion
that the American Sugar Refining
Company was responsible for this
price equality plan.

There were only 1865 national
banks who signified in their legal
time their intention to enter the svs-
tenn, so that the total would be some
wha reduced, but the entrance into
the system of state banks and trust
companies, will tend to offset this.
and 1t is-eBossible that with these in
situations figured in the capital of Ill
reserve banks will be near. $11O,OO,-
900.
The actual working capital of the
reserve banks may only reach half
this amount, for the law provides
mandatory subscriptions Of only
three-sixths Of the total six per cent.
The reserve board, the machine
which will direct the system, how.
ever, is authorized to demand the
payment Of the other three-sixths.
The statement yesterday shows
national banks in excellent condition
to meet the demands Of the new law.
