PAYING FOWLS ARE
SOURCE OF DELIGHT
Money-Making Hens Live in
Houses Free From Vermin and
Are Properly Cared For.

Paying birds are delight to the
eye. You like to show them to your
friends and linger in the description
Of what they are and what they have
done for you. Paying birds never
make up a large part of your flock,
when you sell the cream of your chick
ems every year.
Money-making fiocks are made up
Of the best you raise, always letting
the second quality go to the market.
This class of birds, because they
pay, receive thought and attention
from you. You gladly take good care
of them. You are willing to properly
mate them and feed them. You look
for fresh blood to improve your flock.
You can buy birds that should pay,
but it is another thing to have them
pay you after you own them.
The paying hen is usually Matched
from a paying strain. The paying
good-for-nothing birds is seldom met
and not worth looking for. 1t takes
time, it takes money, it takes born
hen sense to produce flock of pay
ing hens.
1t takes a little neglect to send this
flock back to the class of non-paying
hens. Paying birds live in houses free
from vermin and all are supplied with
pure air and water. They get food
that is needed to bring the profit to
the proper point.

MULCH STRAWBERRY
TO PREVENT KILLING
Trouble Usually Caused by Plants
Drying Out Too Much-Cover
With Clean Straw.
tBy E. F. MKUNE, Colorado Agricul-

tBy E. F. MKUNE, Colorado Agricul-
tural College, Fort Collins, Colo.)
The object of mulching strawberries
IN the fall is to prevent winter kill
ing.
Winter killing is usually caused by
the plants dying out too much dur
ing the winter months, or by alternate
freezing and thawing.
The best mulch material to use is
clean straw; this is placed on the
plants four to six inches deep after
the ground has been frozen.
In the spring after the ground is
thawed, the straw is worked around
the plants. This serves several pur-
poses, such as keeping the patch free
from weeds, conserving the moisture,
and forming a clean mat for the ber-
ries to ripen on.
After the fruit has ripened the
straw should be removed.

inexpensive Grapery for Northern Cline.

line foot. Below the sash on this
strung galvanized telegraph wires tc
support the grapevines one foot from
the glass. At the east end is a door
three feet by six feet six inches, open
ing into the grapery. In the cut it is
shown in the west end for purposes OF
illustration. Steps lead down to the
floor, and on the north wall is fastened
within the grapery, poultry wire. This
poultry wire serves the purpose of a
trellis for growing cucumbers or other
climbing fruit. The entire inside is
whitewashed. The floor is of earth
and in winter where it is not desired 10
put in heating plant fresh manure is
piled on the floor to generate heat. AT
the bottom of this door is made a ven
tilator with slide to regulate the ad.
mission of air.
The grapevines are planted in soil
outside the south wall, and the stems
trained into the grapery through the
apertures above mentioned and the
branches trained on the telegraph
wires below the sash. In the house
the finest grapes, as Black Hamburg,
Thompson Seedless and other delicate
and high-priced grapes may be grown
in the North where it is impossible to
grow them outdoors. The writer re-
peatedly tried to raise the Thompson
Seedless grape outdoors in the mild
winters of southern Michigan without
success. The vines were winter-killed
each year and finally succumbed en-
tirely. With a grapery such as de-
scribed above they can be grown cas-
lily. This grapery is not an expensive
structure, as one may see by little
figuring, and in the winter, and when
cucumbers and other like fruits de-
mand high price, they may be grown
against the north wall. Ampelopsis
quinquefolia, ivy and other vines
planted on the outside of the wall
make very attractive addition to the
vista Of the farm.

CATTLE SUFFERING
FROM RHEUMATISM
Suggestions Given for Treatment
by Expert of Minnesota Az
ricuItural College.

rheumatism among cattle has
caused farmers to appeal to the Min
nesota college of agriculture for sug-
gestions as to treatment. "Abouu the
best the farmer can do for these
cases." says DR.. M. H. Reynolds, chief
of the veterinary division, ''is to rub
the affected parts with stimulating
liniments or to apply a hot steam
pack. A suitable cloth, wooden pre-
ferred, should be saturated with hot
water or mild liniment. This should
be wrapped around the affected joint,
and, to prevent cooling, should be COW
cred with a dry cloth over which
should be placed rubber cloth"

The growing of the delicate grapes
OF southern climes may be easily ac-
complished in an inexpensive grapery
made of concrete, as outlined in the &C
companying plan. In some localities
the climate in the North is so severe
that grape growing is out of the ques-
ton, and the hardest variety must be
buried in winter even to keep them
alive, and it is needless to suggest that
this is nuisance, as the vines must
be taken from the trellis in the fall
and replaced in the spring. But the
finest grapes may be grown in a house
as designed in this plan, writes Her
nan Haupt, Jr., of Michigan in Rural
New Yorker. A greenhouse is made of
REINFORCED concrete. We make wall
IL feet high on the north side and six
inches thick, using poultry wire strung
from top to bottom of the wall, be-
tween the forms in which is shoveled
a mixture of one part best cement, two
parts clean sand Ito test the sand put
some in a pail of water and stir it well,
and if it is muddy do not use it. Clean
sand will settle to the bottom at once
and leave the water clear eight parts
of gravel or brownstone. This will set
in day or two and make firm wall,
but week or more should elapse be-
fore removing the forms. The south
side is made of hotbed sash secured to
rods Of T-iron bolted to the concrete
walls. The bolts are set in the soft
concrete with the head sunk in the
wall and the screw out, to which the
rods are secured by the nut, and in the
interior walls bolts are set wherever
1t is desired to fasten wood or any
other structure.
The roof is made OF REINFORCED con-
crete laid fiat with a series of galvan-
lied iron ventilators placed about
three feet aaprt. The south wall is
four feet high, two feet being below
the surface, and three feet apart are
made apertures in the wall, connecting
with the outside, and below the ground

there is a great Improvement In the
storage facilities provided by the gov
eminent"
1t is therefore no wonder that the
greatest interest was shown by those
who attended the Soil Products Ex-
position held at Denver a short time
ago, when it was demonstrated that it
was not only in quantity that Western
canada still occupied the primary po-
sltlon. 1t was there that Western
canada again proved it's supremacy.
In wheat, 1T was early conceded that
Canada would be winner. and this
was easily the case, not only did il win
the big prize, but it carried off the
sweepstakes. What, however. to those
who were representing Canada at this
exposition, was of greater value proba-
bly,, was winning first and second prize
for alfalfa. The exhibits were beauti-
full and pronounced by old alfalfa
growers to be the best they had ever
seen. First. second and third cuttings
of this year growth were shown.
At this same exposition, there were
shown some excellent samples of fod-
der corn, grown in the Swift Current
district.
Topping the range cattle market in
Chicago short time ago is another OF
the feats accomplished by Western
Canada this year.
On Wednesday, October IS, Clay.
Robinson and company sold at Chi
cago for e. H. Maunsell, Macleod. AL
berta, consignment of cattle, II head
OF which, averaging 1,420 pounds,
brought $500 per hundredweight, top
ping the range cattle market for the
week to date. The same firm also
sold for Mr.. Maunsell 206 head, aver
aging 1,240 pounds, at $3.50, without O
throwout These were all grass cat
tie. They were purchased by armour
and company. Clay, Robinson and
company describe the cattle as OF
very nice quality, u excellent condi-
ton, and great credit to Mr. Maun-
sell. 1t speaks we'll for our Canadian
cattle raisers that they can produce
stock good enough to top the Chicago
market against strong competition.
there being over 1000 range cattle on
sale that day
1t is one thing to produce crops
such as are referred to, and another
to get them to market. The facilities
of Western Canada are excellent. The
railway companies, of which there are
three, the Canadian Pacific, the Cana
dian Northern and the Grand Trunk
Pacific, have the mark of efficiency
stamped upon all their work Besides
the main trunk lines of these systems,
which extend from ocean to ocean,
there are branch lines and laterals,
feeders which enter into remote parts
Of the farming districts, and give to
the farmer immediate access to the
worlds grain markets. The elevator
capacity of the country is something
enormous, and if the figures can be-
digested, the full extent of the grain
producing powers of Western Canada
may be realized The total elevator
capacity is about 170,000,0 900 bushels,
or nearly one-half of the entire wheat
production of the Dominion in 1915.
OF this large storage facilities the
country elevators number $500, with
a capacity of 100000 bushels.-Ad-
vertisement.

SLING FOR FODDER
is A convenience
Plan Outlined for the Performs
anCe of a Troublesome Task
on the Average Farm.

In hauling shocks OF corn, fodder
and all, to the barn to shuck it on
rainy days, it is sometimes trouble
some to handle.
An open sling will help, in which
the boards are three-fourths by four
inches, four feet long with three
quarter inch hole two inches from
each end for one-half inch rope.
The ropes in each sling are long
enough to enclose a shock of fodder.
To load the shocks, the sings are
placed one by one on the wagon, the
boards lying crosswise, and the ropes
laid back and forward When one
shock is loaded the ropes are brought
together and looped, then another
sling is loaded, as before, until six
shocks are on the wagon.
The load is driven to the barn, the
hay carrier hooked to the sling, and
the shock is lifted at once to the
barn.
The corn as it is shocked, is assert
ed, and clean, well-shaped ears are
thrown into one crib; the 'nubbins"
are thrown into the bin next to the
crusher and are ground for the COWS,
the fodder is cut up on the large cut
ting box. The cutting box is run by
a gasoline engine in the pump room.
The fodder, nice, bright and sweet,
is moistened with hot water, a mix
ture of wheat bran, oilmeal, crushed
oats and gluten feed; sufficient salt is
added to season. The pile is forked
over thoroughly and let lie over night,
or from morning to night.
The pith of the stalks that the cows
do not eat is used for bedding, which
is one of the best absorbents we have.

Separate Pens for Pigs.

When pigs are old enough to eat,
they should be fed in a separate pen
from that in which their mother is
confined. A door just large enough
to admit the pigs and keep out the
mother should be placed III the parti-
ton, so the youngsters can come and
go at will.
