cREMATE DEAD FOWLS.

The average amateur poultry raiser
has handy spot in some corner of
his yard for burying dead chicks and
fowls. Their ailment may be roup,
cholera. gapes, or any other contag-
ious disease, vet when the bodies are
buried or thrown into the compost
heap the poultryman considers his
duty well done.
The careless burial Of victims of
any contagious disease is crime
against the living. In the poultry yard
it is well to remember that earth.
worms work increasingly, disintegrat.
ing the soil and bringing disease germs
to the surface. Cremation of all fowls
that die is the best plan. Fire is called
1.-THE great destroyer" for there is no
chance for contagion from ashes.
Fowls may be cremated in any kind
Of furnace or stove. Simply wrap
the body in paper saturated with coal
oil, and it will burn f1ercely and some.
times not leave even bone. There
is no odor or unpleasantness about
such process, and surely 1t is less
labor than digging holes for burial.
In the summer one may make small
outdoor crematory with q few bricks
and an old, burned-out crate.

On Foot.

Sir Gold goes by in his motor car,
tramp the road and take his dust;
But friendly wind from the hills afar
Sweeps it away with laughing gust.
Sir Gold may ride, II he wills 1t so,
But let me follow the winding way
That leads to the hills and the streams
know,
Where the birches bend and the fishe.
play.
He has not seen in the sheltered nook
The windf1ower swing on the threadlike
stalk,
He never knows how the fern fronds look,
Nor listens to jack-in-the-pulpit's talk.
And where the orioles nest Is swung,
A web Of dreams against the sky
Precious and sweet with her eager young
Blind and stupid he rushes by.
Well, let him go If he likes the pace,
So long as he leaves the road behind;
In spite Of his speed he has lost the race,
The tingling zest the foot-wise find.
Ho! EIo! laugh at his sorry flight,
A speeding slave. when he might be
free
In Gods green weather of sweet delight,
On the good brown road. atramp with
me.

Pigeons % Carriers.

! Pigeons have been used as messen.
gers for many thousands of years.
Dove is the Anglo-Saxon name; pigeon
the Norman name. During the fifth
Egyptian dynasty, 5000 years before
Christ, it was the fashion to domesti.
cate pigeons and to train them as car.
riers and messengers. The promptness
with which Caesar was informed of
the rebellion in Gaul, and thereby en-
abled to cross the Alps before those
uprising could possess the entire prov
ince. was due to the use of carrier
pigeons. In the Crusades, these birds
were skillful and faithful messengers.

Have you little blank book which

suggestions which are worth while.
Paste them in the proper place in your

CARE OF DUCKS.


The requirements of ducks are so
few that anyone can raise them. They
are less bother than chickens, not re-
quiring such varied feeding, and a
fence two feet high will keep them
where you wish them to stay, says
one writer. They will not dig up the
garden, never fly up onto anything,
and are never troubled with lice or
bowel troubles as are chickens.
You can feed them the same kind
Of feed from the fifth day after they
hatch until they are full grown, which
they will be in 10 or II weeks.
Do not feed the young ducklings un-
til they are 80 hours old. taking par
ticular pains to see that they are
kept dry and warm. 1t is not desirable
to try to raise them with hens, as they
step on so many of them and the ducks
are even worse to raise them with.
Breeders are much less bother and will
raise larger per cent Of them.
For the first five days feed bread
crumbled and moistened with milk,
adding a heaping tablespoonful of
sharp, sifted sand. After the fifth day
feed one and half pounds of mid
