wedding OUT THE
DEFORMED CHICKS
Fowls Possessing Undesirable
characteristics Should Be
Thrown Out.

There must naturally come a time
in poultry raising when weeding-out
process has to be carried on, and the
longer it is delayed the greater the
loss. All chickens Matched are not fit
to occupy a place in the flock. There
is always a percentage that will show
some deformity, and on no account
should they be tolerated in the flock.
But today there are many breeders
who will not kill any birds they have
bred, especially females, even though
they show pronounced deformities.
Such a system of breeding hinders
very materially the highest develop
ment of a flock.
Possibly one bird will have crooked
toes, another may be knock-kneed,
roach-backed, wry-tailed or crooked
breasted. While some of these de-
formities may not interfere with a
birds immediate usefulness, they are
very undesirable characteristics to per-
petuate in a flock, and some of them,
at least, are usually a result OF, or
combined with, some weakness Of con-
stitution. Such being the case, every
possible kind of deformity should be
considered a physical weakness, and
it is only by careful discrimination in
this direction that healthy, produc-
tive flock may be obtained. The best
live stock breeders practice severe
discrimination against faulty confor-
nation aid poor production, and there
is just as much need for the poultry
raiser to follow out the Same system.
It pays best in the long run.

TREES SHOULD BE
CAREFULLY PRUNED
To Prevent Pear Blight All Num-
mied Fruits and Dead Patches
Should Be Burned.

The pear blight was quite prevalent
on the western slope last summer and
few pear growers lost considerable,
both In the destruction of trees and
fruit.
The season of the disease is past
and the fruit growers efforts should
now be directed toward the cleaning
up process. Trees should be carefully
gone over and all diseased twigs and
branches should be cut off and burned.
The cuts should be made few inches
below the seat of the disease and a
knife or tool used in the cutting
should be disinfected by dipping it
into solution of corrosive sublimate,
one part to 1000 of water. The ground
under the trees should be carefully
searched for mummied fruits or fruits
that were infested with the blight and
dropped to the ground. The trunk Of
the trees should also be examined and
all places showing depression with
an area of dry or dead wood and bark
should be scraped clean and cut out
until the live wood is reached; after
wards carefully painting over the sur
face with solution of copper sulphate
to two gallons of water.
The mummied fruits and the cancer
or dead patches on the body of the
tree and in the crotches of the
branches are hold-over places for the
blight and from which the disease
starts in the spring. All portions re-
moved from trees including fruitlmum-
mics should be carefully gathered and
burned.

Owing to the roomy character OF

fields of sprouting maize, the great

Buffalo Most Dangerous.
Unlike Mr.. Roosevelt. who has ex-
pressed the opinion that the lion is
the most dangerous of African ami

the palm to the elephant, Mr.. McMil-
Ian, after almost Is years experience,
unhesitating places the water buffalo
as the most dangerous foe to human
life. when wounded and brought to
bay by the huntsman.
The rhinoceros, in Mr.. McMillan's
opinion is of little actual danger to an
experienced and thoroughly alert man.
Possessed, apparently, of the most saw
age and erratic temper Of any of the
larger animals, it can see but poorly
out of those red, pig-like eyes, being
, scarcely able to distinguish a man a
sho distance away. Then, when he
charges, he runs blindly, throwing his
huge bulk forward in a straight line
from which he seldom deviates. The
hunter, if he be sure-footed and col
lected, should his fire fail to stop the
gigantic beast, can easily evade him
by lodging, stepping aside when the
charge is almost upon him, and there
is but little likelihood of the rhino
returning to the attack.
These animals are much given to
wanton attacks, seemingly running
amuck at times. On one such occa-
sion, a rhino came out of the nearby
brush and charged wildly through the
Juja Farm garden. Coming upon one
