An egg contains quite a large per

supplied in plenty.
AS fowls have no organs for masti

for digestion in the gizzard.

The poultry keeper smart enough to
get them is the one who is successful

Unslaked lime, coal ashes or dry
dirt are good materials to scatter over
the floor and under the roosts after a

good time to begin.
Turkeys are difficult to raise as we
know by long experience, but with
good care and the right kind of feed
we have managed to raise a good per.
centage OF those hatched.
Just now we are having some
trouble with ours because of our in.
ability to keep them out Of a neigh
bor's rye field. Several have died, two
more are sick. The rye causes a bowel
trouble, which Is not unlike cholera
After we discovered the cause of the
trouble we tried keeping the we'll tur-
keys in n yard This was not a sue
cess. They began to droop and re-
fused to eat; just as we expected, for
a turkey cannot endure confinement.
The sick ones were given a little
epson salts in their feed and two re.
remedies, but none OF the others
seemed to take any effect.
We do not consider rye suitable food
for any kind of poultry, young or old.

turkeys, even at the present unheard-

anywhere from 25 cents to 81 each.
The Mammoth Bronze is a very
large and beautiful bird of the color
the name implies. We have raised the
Bronze for number of years, and
find this breed Possesses more good
points than any one OF the others we
have known of.
The Bronze is more vigorous and
therefore less difficult to raise than
the White Holland or Narragansett.
The latter is about as large in ap-
pearance as the Bronze, but is some
what lighter in weight.
The White Holland and Bourbon are
becoming more popular than formerly.
on account of their domestic habits.
They are rather small In size and
quite tame in habit preferring to stay
close at home.
When buying breeding stock it is
best to secure the male bird from one
breeder and the females from another,

Farmers Institute Nay
Be Held in SnOWflke

Pres. S. F. Smith was around
last week getting signers to a
petition for the holding of a
Farmers Institute in Snowflake
this or next month. These in
stitutes are being held by the
Agriculture Extension Service of
the State University, and in
localities that cannot be reached
by the demonstration train. The
following clipped from the week.
ly bulletin gotten out by the
Service fully explains the pupo-
ses and objects of the institutes:
Professor Stanley +. Morse
superintendent of the agricult-
ural extension service of the
University of Arizona College of
Agriculture, states that the
farmers Institutes of Arizona
are being conducted along some
what different lines than former
ly. In the first place, the gener-
al plan is to provide Institutes
for those localities which are not
reached by the agricultural dem
onstration train, particularly in
inaccessible places some distance
from the railroad. These in
stitutes will not be offered to the
farmers whether they want them
or not but in order to secure
farmers institute in any district
it is necessary to write to the
Agricultural Extension service
for petition form asking for
farmers institute and to have
this signed by not less than 25
farmers, On receipt of such a
petition an institute date will be
set for the locality in question.
Petition forms have already been
sent to all the principal localities
in the state.
Another feature of the institute
work this year will be that the
talks will be largely discussions
of the best practices for local
conditions. In some instances it
is planned to have the lecturers
spend the forenoon visiting farm
ers in the locality and studying
conditions and in the afternoon
and evening give talks with spec
ial reference to what they have
seen during the morning. 1t is
felt that the request for Institutes
should come from the farmers
rather than that the institute
should be thrust by the university
on the farmers.
