CoIors of Younu Chicks,

You cannot tell by the color of
chick when Matched how we'll it will be
marked later on. Neither should you
judge chick by the downy covering
which it first takes on The pure white
specimens will many times look smutty
with dark down on the back. The
particolored birds will have notified
appearance that makes the beginner
feel dubious about the purity Of the
strain. But let the birds grow, and
you will find that they will come out
all right. The chicks when two months
old are altogether different in color
from the time they we're hatched.-

spinach is. The leaves Of those that
are left to reach larger size may be
cooked in the same way, and the stems
may he ''crenmed" and served as as
paragus is. The leaves and stems may
be canned either together or separately,
as green's are needed even more III Win
ter than in summer to vary the restrict
ed diet. In ordering seed no mistake
will be made in specifying "Lucullus,'
which has proved a very good variety.
New Zealand spinach is unlike the
ordinary early spinach in the manner
Of growth and the appearance Of the
leaves. 1t is Il large branchel plant
with leafy side shoots, which are pulled
and used like those Of the ordinary
spinach. which is a SQuatty, rOSette-liAe
plant. New Zealand spinach should b."
thinned to stand twelve inches apart in
rows at least two feet apart. Three or
even four feet will be better, especially
in rich soil. If the narrower spacing is
used the plants must be trained in
windows, as sweet potato vines some
times are. If the plants grow too rap
idly the tops may be canned about as
ordinary spinach is. The foliage should
not be allowed to accumulate too much
or stay too long Oh the plants, for the
more greens that are removed the more
succulent tops there will be. and with
proper management the plants will
thrive and produce great deal Of food
until frost.
In selecting and preparing the soil
for these "greens" see to it that too
thin a soil is not picked out and that
there is plenty of we'll rotted manure
worked into it both for the sake of the
plant food and because it will enable
the soil to hold water and withstand
drought.

Selecting Breeding Hens.

A method which will improve the
poultry stock very quickly and which
is within the reach Of every farmer is
to have a small special mating from
which to select his. male birds for
breeding each year. Select a few, if
only four, of your ideal females. the
ones which in your estimation are
those that you want the whole flock ia
be like. Every flock has four or five
females in it that are best. Put these
birds in a separate pen. It is not al
ways necessary to build special house
for them. Any place where they will
be reasonably comfortable and sepa-
rate from the rest Of the flock is suit
able. To these few females mate your
ideal cock bird.

Fattening Fowls.

Caging fowls separately for two
weeks while fattening them will pro-
duce tender meat, while. on the other
hand, where fowls are yarded they are
apt to nag and chase each other so
that the muscles, harden and the meat
toughens.

Making the Pruning Cuts.
The method Of cutting when pruning
apple trees is very important. The best
advice is to cut every branch, whether
large or small, as close as possible to
the part from which it is taken. Never
leave stubs, for stubs will not permit
the healing over Of the wounds, but
may induce decay. Make all cuts
smooth and close.
