Time to Buy Chicks and Eggs

AS the breeding season for the fan
eier is about at an end, he is usually
willing to sell his eggs for Matching at
one-half price. or less.
True, il is a little late To do the very
best Of chicken raising. but for the
sake of getting a good deal for your
money, you can afford to go To little
trouble to raise a brood or two of
really fine youngsters. Then there is
the stock to be had at a reduction.
Most breeders are willing to sell off
some of their best breeding hens and
cocks at this season Of the year rather
than to carry them over To another
season, having a lot Of fine youngsters
coming on to take their places. For
that reason they offer them at a small
amount of money compared to their
real value as fine stock We often feel
like we are not able TO invest in such
stock at the regular fancy price, but
when we can get it at but a fraction of
what il is usually sold at. it is diff
ferent A good pen Of hens of this
kind can be put right to work produc-
ing eggs for Matching 10 be Matched
as soon as possible for while, and
then one can wait until August or
and get out a few more. at
which time they will do well and
mature to go TO laying by the first of
April Of next year, besides having the
old hen for service next year as well.
There is no reason for any one be-
ing without the best stock when he
can get it in the manner suggested
above. There is no question but that
this good stock will be paying in
vestment If at all cared for in
systematic manner that will make any
stock profitable. There is scarcely an
individual who has ever invested in
stock that will tell
you that he made a mistake and he
wished he had not made the invest
of course, he has over
done the matter by buying stock at
prices that were out of all reason.

account was kept and it was found
that the cost OF planting the trees was
eleven and three-tenths cents each.
This cost also included the time and
labor of pruning the limbs and roots
before setting. During the first win

Lice Kill Chicks
\ correspondent writes:

y correspondent writes
Can you tell me what is the matter
with my little chicks? They seem
perfectly healthy in every way at
birth, but when they are from two TO
five weeks old they begin To sit around
move slowly, and their little wings are
spread out. They stay this way for
a few days and then die. We have
some old roosters, too, that do not act
right. They sit around in the yard
all day When someone comes near
them they will wobble around. but
sit down again"
We suspect that these chicks, as
we'll as the ROSTERS and hens are
affected with lice. Older birds do not
die SO readily from the attacks of lice
as the chicks do, but they will droop
around and show little ambition either
To eat or get out of ones way. The
young chicks are often infested from
the mother. and as they are much
more delicate. few lice will cause
serious trouble. With older birds,
death is sometimes caused by partial
starvation when lice are very active
When poultry raisers see evidences
OF lice on their fowls, they should
take steps to get rid Of them. The
roosts and building should be given
thorough cleaning and be treated with
some of the dips or disinfectants adj
vertised. The application should be
repeated i'm about ten days TO kill
other lice that have Matched from eggs
laid before the first spraying. Then
good coat of whitewash will help.
Lice on birds may be killed by an
of insect powder. Powder
ed sulphur is good To use as dust.
The rubbing in of a small quantity of
mercurial ointment also is said TO
drive the lice away. With little chicks
a few drops of sweet oil or lard oil
put on the head, wings and throat
will keep away lice. Treating will do
little good unless the lice are stopped
at the source which in this case
probably is the mother bird.

FARM and ORCHARD

failing health. Prior To this he had
studied sometime farming and he
decided that ii would be profitable To
for him to start an orchard along with
his health seeking.
He advertised in the papers for
farm that was adapted to apple
growing and he bought one on hill
of several hundred feet elevation. His
first work on the farm was To set out
/ 900 apple trees. lie had fairly
good orchard on the farm OF nearly
500 trees, and he then proceeded to
trim these up, putting them in good
bearing condition. He pruned them
and plowed between the trees. He
sowed il 10 rape and as soon as this
was up, having fenced around IL he
turned SO pigs and hogs into it, Next
year in his orchard he plowed up be-
tween the trees and planted corn.
The result was very satisfactory. one
tree at the end of each row he left
without blowing and planting around
it. ON trees that he had planted
around, the branches grew about 10
inches and the other about six inches.
The first winter after this man
bought the farm and had set out his
orchard he went to the University of
Maine To take short course in or
chard work and i'm this way he learn
ed many things about the care of an
orchard and the methods of setting
out trees.
His orchard at present though not
at bearing age has as yet cost him
nothing. The crops between the trees
have yielded him profits equal TO the
expense of setting out the orchard and
caring for it up TO the present time.
The orchard after ii is two years old
should be sprayed at least twice
year and sometimes three times using
at one time lime-sulphur and at
another time arsenate of lead, one be-
ing used in the fall and the other in
the spring. He considers that the ar
senate OF lead should preferably be
used when the petals have fallen and
never should be used when the tree
is bearing fruit.
His own experience has been with
his orchard Of 1000 trees that the
replacement of trees the first year was
80 trees to the 1000 and then each

The sand-clay road has been i'm use

Clean the poultry houses every day.
Wood ash is good fertilizer for
the trees and i'm the garden. but do not
put il in the poultry houses, as it has
a tendency TO injure the legs of your

Capons are superior in every re-

demand them-and the poultry dealer
must have them-and the poultry
raiser must produce them.
Look out for lice on the perches as

DEATH OF MRS. DoWELL

Mrs. Melissa Dowell, wife of Francis
Dowell died at their home in Maiden,
Mo-, last week. The body was
brought here for burial and funeral
services held at the home of Mr.. and
Mrs. E. Eek on w. Elm street. Rev.
j. A. Wharton, of the Christian church
officiated. Burial was made in the
Wauseon cemetery.
Mrs. Dowell, whose maiden name
was Vroman was born near Upper
Sandusky, April 18th, 1854, and had
she lived until last Sunday she would
have been 60 years of age.
She was married to Francis Dowell
in the Spring of 1877. In her death
she leaves one brother Sylvanus Vro-
man of Adrian, Michigan, and her hus-
band of Maiden, Mo. She was con-
verified in her 18th year and later be-
came a member of the church of
God, but after moving to Maiden,
united with the Christian church
She was conscientious christian ever
ready to do all her strength would
permit. On the Lords Day she was
always in her place in the church
as long as her health would permit.
She was loving wife and kind to
all who knew her. To know her was
to love her. She was friend to
those in trouble or distress, visiting
and praying with them and trying to
make them see that life was worth
while. She was also a member of
the w. C. T. U. At home she kept
her light burning brightly on the
family altar. The world is better
for her having lived in it. Both Mr..
and Mrs. Dowell are known by many
in and around Wauseon where they
lived at one time.
