Mr. Dyspeptic, would you not like
to feel that your stomach troubles
were over, that you could eat any
kind of food you desired without in

you that you do not even hope for an
ending of your trouble, but permit us
to assure you that it is not altogether
impossible If others can be cured
permanently, and thousands have beer

Poultry Notes.

Feed plenty of sharp grit or sand
with the food.
Please the consumer and you can
raise the price.
Systematic marketing will overcome
overproduction.
Pekin ducks do not make good sit
ters-use chicken hen.
Good development before beginning
to lay is better for the pullet.
Ducks must have plenty of green
food or they will not thrive.
Impure water will not produce many
eggs of any bind, and none that are
good.
Fewer and better birds, and all as
much alike as possible should be
every poultry keepers motto.
You must know that duck has no
crop The food must be soft be-
cause it passes Directly into the giz-
card.
Pure white exhibition birds will
have their plummage made yellow by
constant feeding of corn, though a
little corn occasionally will do no
harm.

Destroy All Ailing Fowls.

Most ailing or diseased chickens or
hens had better be killed than doc
tored. In the first place it is by far
the quickest way, Again, it at once
does away with any risk from con
tagion. Moreover a once sick hen,
even If she does seem entirely recov-
cred, seldom develops into a first
class layer. and second-class layers
seldom pay.
There is another point, often over
looked. Disease generally attacks the
weakest or more susceptible of the
flock, and no flock was ever benefited
by keeping in it birds of this kind
when it is known they are such. 1t
is true that now and then some trivial
thing may all an otherwise strong

give her no opportunity to recover.

Value of Education.

The question is often asked, "Of
how much value is school training to
farmers from a business standpoint"
A recent agricultural survey of sew
eral townships of Tompkins county,
New York, made by the college of ag-
riculture of Cornell University has re-
vealed many interesting and suggest
i've facts bearing upon rural sociology.
To quote from the summary:
"The survey shows that high
school education is worth as much to
a farmer as $1,000 worth of FIVE per
cent bonds. A college education is
worth nearly twice as much"

VEGETABLE SEED GROWN IN
CALIFORNIA,
Major Portion of American Grown
Comes From That State.

1t is practically impossible to give
an accurate statement of the area in
the United States which is annually
devoted to raising garden seeds, or
even to make reliable estimate of
the total acreage. Even on farms
where the chief money crop is garden
seed, only portion (often but a small
portion) of the whole farm is in
seed crop any single year, the remain
der being occupied with ordinary farm
crops in order to maintain a profit
able crop rotation. The major por-
tion of American-grown small seeds,
like those of onion and lettuce, is the
product of large farms located in Cal
ifornia, though many thousands of
pounds of such seeds are grown in the
eastern States. One who is very ia
milar with ed-growing on the Pa
cifc coast estimates that the total
acreage of vegetable seed annually
PLANTED in California is not far from
10000 acres.
Vine crops, such as cucumbers, mel
ons and squashes, are grown for the
seed crop in all parts of the United
States, some of which is grown in the
northwestern States and others in
Florida, with still others in Califor
MIA: but the great bulk of the supply
of vine seeds comes from Michigan
and the central western States. Prob
ably total of 10000 to 10000 acres Of
vine crops is annually planted with
the exception that more or less OF the
crop will be marketed as seed.
Fifty years ago there was little gen
eral appreciation, even among expert
enced gardeners. of the importance OF
the quality of the seed used provided
it would only grow as a factor in
determining the real profit of growing
crop,
1t is evident that the present prac-
tice of growing and handling seeds Is
by no means ideal or such as to give
the greatest possible uniformity OF
varietal character. In the case of a
majority of the vegetable cultures in
America, if all of even 90 per cent of
the plants were as nearly alike in
varietal type as the 20 per cent which
were the most alike. the profit from
these cultures would be grealy in
creased; often actually doubled. On
the other hand, the growing of vege-
table seed under present conditions is
not particularly profitable or satisfac-
tory to the farmer. Is there any pos
sibility of betterment? We think So
Seed planters are coming to realize
more fully the importance of the use
OF better seed and the folly of being
so largely influenced by low prices
and a persuasive salesman in buying
while seedmen and professional grow
ers are learning that wisdom and care
in the breeding and growing of the
seeds they offer is quite as important
as shrewdness in buying and skillful
handling and selling. and tina seeds
of the best quality cannot be secured
without the active. intelligent coop
Grafton of the producing farmer.

Wise Economy.

1t is wise economy to plant wind
breaks of evergreens, arbor vitae, Nor
way spruce and balsam fir, a portion
of each with sprinkling of other vari-
cites to make pleasing contrast.

Sell the Star Boarders.

If COW is not paying profit, why

ing for anyone else. so why work for
a worthless COW? Test the cows and
find which are the star boarders.

1t is much easier to run a flock of
poultry down than to build it up, and
nothing will run down flock of chick
ems quicker than improper feeding.

A wet blanket or canvas over the
