equipped him with q pair Of purple

peculiar tail feathers. He wigwags his

his mate. When he's not signaling he's
slipping honey from the flowers and
trying to keep his tail from entangling

His tail Is a combination Of two wire.
like handles, with q purple tuft Of
feathers at the end of each. He crosses
them near the middle and sometimes
he brings the pair of "rackets" at the
ends to his head, as though trying to
fan himself.
The male birds have a sort of love
dance which they engage in during the
mating season. Then they play all
sorts OF tricks with the rackets.

excels are the flavor, color and tuici-
ness of it's meat. The same is true Of
sheep although in lesser degree. The
best native lamb is better than the
best western lamb because It is better
fed. The western lamb is forced to
take a great deal of exercise over the
range in its search for food, and this
is perhaps one Of the reasons why its
flesh is darker In color and less juicy
than that Of the native lamb Of prime
finish that has usually been confined
to small pastures.
1t is claimed that the range grasses
do not equal those in the districts
where native lambs are grown in I'm
parting desirable flavor to the flesh
of lambs. Lambs fattened on the
rangea are often driven long distances
to a shipping point, and subjected to
several days of scant food and water
supply while en- route to market. Al
though these lambs are usually rested
a few days at the feeding stations, 1t
is believed. nevertheless, that the
hardships undergone in reaching the
market are in part responsible for the
criticism brought against the flavor,
color and juiciness of their meat. The
fact that the best native lambs are
conceded to be better than the best
western lambs for the meat trade
should be a matter of great encourage
ment to their producers. However,
producers as a whole should be chiefly
concerned about the merit of their
average product, rather than that OF
a few exceptional individuals that sur
pass anything else of their class. Rela-
tive to this fact the buyers for the
packers assert emphatically that the
average native lamb is much inferior
to the average western lamb. This
statement should be seriously con-
sidered by producers Of natives in
general, because when linked with the
statement that the best native out
classes the best western. it suggests
that the producers Of natives are
either handicapped by difficulties
which they cannot control or are open
to criticism in their methods.

To add variety, okra or gumbo TO

The seed should be sown in drills

the plants started, as they are quite

MAKING MONEY WITH CHICKS
Important Branch Of Poultry Business
Has Been Made Possible by Use
Of lncubators.

The general use of incubators has
made it possible and profitable for
many to engage in the day-old chick
trade. which has become an important
branch Of the poultry business. This
work may be done in the home in adj
dition to the ordinary routine Of du-
ties, and is one way a nice income
may be earned.
With proper precautions, Matching

On account Of the limited distance

ly a neighborhood or town where one

Many people lack the time and equip

The number of lambs received by
the large markets greatly exceeds the
number of sheep. Before the West
turned to mutton production the re-
verse was true, but now it Is esti-
mated that lambs constitute so per
cent of the total receipts Of the Chi
-cago market, and doubtless the same
Is true of the other large markets.
Not only has there been a change
in the relative numbers Of sheep and
lambs marketed. but there has also
been a change in the distribution Of
D lambs through the different sea-
sons Formerly, when the supply was
drawn almost exclusively from native
ffocks, they were on the market in
a~ppreciable numbers during the sum-
a,er and early autumn months only,
nut now they are received every week
In the year. AS the large numbers re-
Cefved would indicate, lambs are pre-
feyred by the consumer. and this even
distribution of them throughout the
year has doubtless greatly stimulated
consumption.

ERADlCATING TICK IN SOUTH
Of a Sound Agricultural System
Expense Is Small.

Eradication of the tick Is essential
to the development of a sound agri-
cultural system in the South. Land
there is still cheap and much Of it is
making no money for anyone The
pasture season is long, feed can be pro-
duced at a minimum cost. and only in
expensive shelter is required.
The tick by compelling guarantees
adds TO the cost of getting cattle to
outside markets. Ticky beeves cannot
be transshipped and must go to i'm
mediate slaughter. Free cattle can be
t~ransshipped to markets where prices
are higher o r can be sold as feeders.
The difference in price between ticky
and free cattle runs from one-half to
n cent a pound or five to ten dol
lars a head.
The tick kills imported or p~ure-bred
stock and thus makes 1t hard for the
tickinfested regions Of the South to
raise any but scrub cattle.
A yearling calf from a purebred
bull and a native COW will weigh from
$50 to 800 pounds. Such a calf is esti
mated to be worth $40 to $23 more
than a calf from scrub stock.
A few swims through the areenical
dipping vat and the ticks are killed
and your animal Is worth FIVE to ter
dollars more, provided your neighbors
join in and the country will dip It's cat
tie and free itself from costly quaran
tine restrictions. Five cents worth o.
arsenic per head is all 1t costs after
the vat is built. A vat costs only $5t
to 500 and will dip all the cattle a.
often as needed. The only other cost
are driving the cattle to the vat ant
handling them in the bath.

Diversified operations mean the rails

This plan gives opportunity for crop
rotation, for distribution OF man and
horse labor and for the maintenance

All Of these are essential to good
farming. Crop rotation aids IN main
tanning crop yields and soil fertility,

Diversified farming is of importance

USING THE TUBERCULlN TEST
Southern Dairy Owners Urged to Make
Test at Least Once Yearly to
Eradicate Disease.

II there were not serious conse
quences involved it would be amusing
the way some cattlemen object to the
tuberculin test, because it is no ac-
curate. The trouble is hat it is too
accurate to suit these men. In over
Ginety-eight cases out of II hundred,
i n which the tester has claimed the tu-
herculin test showed tuberculosis, and
post-mortem examination has been
made, it has showed the test and the
tester correct. 1t is probable that tu'
berculin never causes an elevation of
temperature unless the animal has tu-
berculosis. The tester may make a
mistake occasionally, but II he only
fails in two cases out of n hundred
the test is remarkably accurate. We
know Of nothing Of this nature in
which mans judgment is involved that
Is more accurate.
Southern cattle are comparatively
rtree from tuberculosis now. and II our
stockmen would look to their inter-
ests and not only test all cattle
brought In. but all those To- on their
farms, ono a year, the disease would
never become a menace to our herds,
a. Is the case In some sections, and
I millions OF dollars and many human
Lives would be thereby saved.
Every dairyman should tuberculin
test his herd once a year and the
state should prohibit the shipment of
any cattle into or within the state.
for dairy or breeding purposes, unless
tested and found free Of tuberculosis.

Cause Of Roup Can Always Be Traced
to Filth Of Some kind-keep
Houses and Yards Clean.

The fundamental cause of roup can
be always traced to filth of some kind
which may be no fault of the owner.
since the birds may eat putrid food
at neighbor's premises. or when ex.
hibited at some poultry show.
But usually the trouble lies in the
home poultry quarters, and especial
care should be exercised to keep the
yard free from putrid food and the
house and all vessels used for feeding
and drinking purposes as clean as pos
sible at all times.
