SOIL ADAPTED FOR POULTRY
Light Loan, Through Which Water
teaches Freely, Is Best-GiVe
Fowls Plenty Of Range.

Poultry can be raised successfully
on any well-drained soil. A light
loan, which will grow good grass, is
we'll adapted for this purpose; while
a very light, sandy soil, through
which the water teaches freely, will
stand more intensive poultry condi-
tions, but most OF the green feed for
the fowls kept on such soil will have
to be purchased. A heavy clay or
adobe soil is not as well adapted to
poultry raising, as such land does not
drain readily and it is much more
difficult to keep the stock healthy.
Long stationary houses, or the in
tensive system, saves steps, but 1t is
easier to keep the birds healthy and
to reproduce the stock under the col
ony system where the birds are al
lowed free range.
Breeding stock, especially growing
chickens, should have an abundance of
range, while hens used solely for the
production of market eggs may be kept
on a very small area with good re-
suits.
The colony house system necessi-
tates placing the houses, holding
about 100 hens, from 200 to $50 feet
apart, so that the stock will not kill
the grass.
The colony system may be adapted
to severe winter conditions by drawing
the colony houses together in con-
venient place at the beginning of win
ter, thus reducing the labor during
these months.

STONY SOILS FOR ORCHARDS
often Recommended as Desirable foe
Fruit--soil Must Be Brought TO
Productive State.

A stony loan is often recommended
as desirable fruit soil. but stones are
advantageous only in that they may
help a soil that ia too heavy or clayey
or too impervious. by making IL some
what more pervious to water. The
fact that a soil is stony does not
necessarily imply that it is produc-
tive.
II apples are to be grown with
profit, and competition is keen. the
soil must be productive or ct least
capable OF being brought to a produc-
tive state and SO maintained.
Much OF the current belief that
stony" soils possess some peculiar adj
vantage for orchard fruits has I'M
doubtedly arisen from the success OF
many orchards located on Stony hills.

BEST TIME TO PRUNE TREES
Delay Work Until Danger of Winter
Killing Is Past-Sometimes Desir-
able to Prune in Summer.

Questions are often asked about
the desirability of early winter prun-
ing Of orchard trees. Some people
have a notion that early pruning
causes more watersprouts and heavy
growth than will be the case II the
pruning is delayed until late winter.
Others are fearful of cutting limbs
after the sap begins to flow or after
buds have started.
The horticultural department at the
Ohio College of Agriculture states that
as a general rule winter pruning pro
notes wood growth, while summer
pruning checks growth OF trees. 1t
makes no difference, then, at what
time during the dormant season the

fowls digestive system every time.
The sour milk should be kept before
them at all times. but placed in such
a manner that they are not apt to get
into it and get it dirty and filthy. The
pan should be cleaned and scalded
every day and refilled as often as it
is found empty.
The results obtained from feeding
sour milk to the chicks in this manner
for the first ten or twelve weeks of
their lives is marvellous to a person
who has never tried it. 1t gives them
a good start on the road to growth
and development, and if they do not
get started right they become stunted
and remain undeveloped birds through
life. Another important part sour
milk plays is that the flock will devel-
op more evenly, adding increased
health and vigor. Do not use it in
place OF grains or mash feed, as these
also fill their place.
The laying hens need practically the
same kinds OF foods as the growing
stock and sour milk being high in pro-
teir, aids greatly in building up eggs
in their bodies 1t tends to keep all
the organs in their system in working
order. The meat scrap should be re-
duced in the mash when sour milk is
being fed. 1t should never be fed
when it has reached the point where
it has bad smell or is nodded, and
keeping the milk cans and feeding
pans clean will mean a great deal
along this line.

HOGS INFESTED WITH WORMS
Many Owners Never Suspect Anything
Wrong Until His Animals Show
Visible Slqns Of Sickness.

Some hog growers positively know
their hogs are not infested with
worms, although they have never civ
en- them anything to prevent them.
Some think their hogs are all right in
this respect.
The downright truth is that 80 per
cent OF the hogs are infested with
worms and the owner never suspects
until his hogs show signs OF sickness.
It pays to be on the safe side all the
time In this regard.

Milk is one OF the greatest foods for
humans and animals that nature has
provided and makes an important part
OF their diet. II is also found to be
great food for poultry, both young
growing chicks and laying hens. The
greatest question now arises as to
when and how and what amount
should be given.
On most every farm we now find the
cream separator, declares a writer,
and after separating the milk we have
the skim milk which the farmer has
been using to what he thinks is the
most advantage, usually feeding it to
hogs. If he will try some of this in
feeding his poultry / think ! am safe
in saying that it will yield him still
better returns. Sour milk is better
than to feed while it is still sweet, but
it is very little trouble in this way,
for il in a warm place it soon under
goes this change.
In souring milk becomes more or
less solid in form so that the birds
are able to get hold Of it better. Es
pecially is il best for small chicks, for
their little digestive organs are not
capable of using sweet milk, whereas
the sour milk is digested quickly.
When first the milk is given, they may
not drink very much, but in a few
days they will learn to like it and will
consume quite a great deal. Always
see that the milk is sour, as feeding
it to them sweet one day and sour the
next will result in an upset of the

were handed numbers printed on card
