! FEW HINTS FOR TURKEY
RAESERS.

Many turkey raisers make a serious
mistake by trying to increase size in
their flocks by mating toms that are
diversified. Breeders have found that
TO mate 40-pound tom with 15-
pound pullets means low fertility
and weak poults. While the writer
has not been breeding turkeys for
several years he remembers very we'll
that the strongest poults and, in the
end, the largest and quickest growing
turkeys were produced from matings
made up of well-matured hens and
medium-sized old or young toms. 1t
seems to be even tfueT with turkeys
than with chickens that small or
immature pullets are far from salts
factory as breeders.
Another thing that is responsible
for slow growth and a failure to
attain large size is the presence of
the big gray lice on the young poults.
1t seems impossible for lousy poults
to ever attain full size. The life is
taken out of them, they grow small
boned and snaky in appearance, and
it seems that poult that gets poor
start is never a money-maker for it's
owner.
Grease Kills Turkeys.
In fighting lice on turkeys do not
use any form of grease. l do not
know why grease often kills turkeys,
but it does. One of the best ways to
get at the lice on the poults is to
dust the hen with Persian insect
powder very thoroughly, being care
full to work the powder we'll into the
feathers. The poults will get enough
of the powder on them by being HOY
cred to rid them of the lice. This
operation should be performed fire.
quently. London purple is recon-
mended by some of the best breed
ers, but more care is necessary in
using it, for it is deadly poison and
if enough is used so that it may drop
into the feed the poults are liable to
be killed.
It should be remembered that
poults cannot be handled like chicks.
There is something about a young
turk that does not permit of coddling
or handling and the amateur turkey
raiser very often falls down in this
very particular. 1t should also be
remembered that turkeys require
range and do not do we'll in confine-
ment. Dampness during the first
few weeks is almost always fatal.
The poults cannot stand the wet. A
grown turkey can stand almost all
kinds of weather, but great care
should be taken to protect the poults
Overlooking means liver complaint
and dead turks-be mighty careful
not to overfeed the young ones.

A girl knows that man likes to
see a pretty face, but she has the

a fat woman knows that she is not

When some men are going to
church with their wives you would
imagine that they were being taken

A little monkey-faced baby is

wealthy uncle, no matter how hand
some said uncle may be.
Most men DO not care whether
they have the right side of an argu-

opposite side.
When a girl has a hole in her

A man would rather have his wife
