SCARCITY OF FRESH
EGGS ON THE FARM
Trouble May Be Remedied by
Early Hatches of Puiets-
Give Them Good Care.

During the months of October, No
vember and December of each year
there is always a more or less scarcity
of fresh eggs, and the prices, in con
sequence, &c up.
This scarcity is due to two things
in general-the melting period for old
hens and the lack of early Matched
pullets.
1t is at this time Of the year that
the condition powder and the poultry
food man begins to cry his wares. and
it is surprising to see the business
that he does do.
While we believe in the tonic effects
Of a good condition powder or a sci
entifically prepared poultry food, we
do mot credit these articles with all
that is claimed for them.
They should be used with Judgment
"a little goes a great way. To accus-
tom the fowls to them is but to lose
their tonic effect.
They ara not so much calculated to
make eggs as they are to tone up the
tissues and to keen the appetite. In
that condition the fowl eats more
freely and better assimilates the egg
food that it gets from pure, good grain.
This scarcity of fresh eggs on the
farm a only be remadied by early
matches of pullets. Puliets Matched in
March and April, and well grown, will
begin laying in the fail. and continue
in the good work right through the
winter. The melting hens will again
start up in January, and by February
the combined work of the puliets and
the hens will give a good supply of
eggs, and it will be noticed that in
February the market prices for eggs
are on the decline.
The great trick is to get the eggs
during the last three months of the
year, and this can be done by early
pullets given good housing, good feed
and good care.

cow MUST HAVE PURE WATER
One Great Essential for Liberal Sup
ply of MiIk-AnimaI Does Well
When 1t Is Handy.

1t is foolish to expect COWS to give
milk in quantity unless they have an
abundance of pure drinking water.
Milk is largely composed of water
and we may as well try making bricks
without straw as to supply this in
scant quantity.
You want a drink when you want it.
Does not the domestic animal have
the same craving?
If placed where she can get it at all
times she will drink more and do bet
ter than when it is only accessible at
stated intervals, perhaps SO far apart
that there is a tendency to drink toe
much.

To properly prepare a garden l be-
lieve in blowing under a heavy appli-
cation of manure in the fall, and then
in the spring narrowing in another
heavy coat of well-rotted manure
After putting on what we think is
enough we double the amount and the
chances are we will have it about
right.
Constant cultivation should be the
rule, for this will keep the soil in an
ideal condition, physically, for the
roots to grow in, besides keeping the
weeds in check. Allowing the weed
seeds to terminate and quickly de
stroying them early in the season will
save a large amount of work during
the summer, besides conserving much
needed moisture.
Eliminate all of the old-fashioned
beds and plant everything in long
rows, so that most of the cultivation
can be done with a horse. There
need not be an unpleasant amount o.
hand work if properly worked with
horse and cultivator.
Leave plenty of room at the ends
for turning around with the horse
