rheumatism in Dogs.

One of the commonest Affections
among dogs is rheumatism. 1t often
seizes upon them in their early puppy
days and carries them through weeks
OF torture, in which their limbs be-
come twisted and their tempers af-
fected for life. In its acute stages the
joints become swollen and inilamed.
and only with the greatest pain may
the dog move at all. While the best
methods of combating the disease are
preventive methods, such as good hous-
ing, careful diet and sufficient exer-
else, it has been discovered that the
rheumatic dog will quickly recover I'M
DER treatment of salicylate os So
dunn, given in doses of from 5 TO Is
grains-according to the size of the
dog-every day, while colchicum in
doses of from to 30 drops three times
day has also proved remarkably
beneficial.

Some Fundamental Principles for
Poultryman to Observe-CIeanIi-
ness of Big Importance.

A few fundamental principles will
serve the poultryman to keep his
flock in health if these rules are OBJ
served. They are as follows: Good
clean quarters, thoroughly disinfected
at reasonable intervals, grains fee
from mold, feed in clean litter or on
clean floors.
Plenty of fresh water placed in open
dishes that are frequently disnfected
Plenty of fresh air at all times and
house for protection which does not
permit of any drafts.
A constant supply of grit, oyster
shells and charcoal and the regular
ration of green feeds such as vege-
tables or sprouted oats. A supply of
protein in the shape of animal feed
such as milk, beef scraps or green
cut bone.

SPROUT OATS FOR CHICKENS
Placed in Trays, With Net Bottoms,
They Are Ready for Feeding
in About Five Days.

A quart of oats is soaked in a pail
of water overnight and the surplus
water poured off next morning. The
oats are then washed three times with
clear water to remove mold or smut
spores and spread one-quarter inch
deep on shallow trays. These trays,
which have wire mosquito netting bot
toms, are placed in warm room and
the oats kept damp. In about FIVE
days they are ready for feeding and
make an excellent midday food for
young chicks or mature fowls. About
a cubic inch a day of sprouted oats
is sufficient for hen and half the
amount for chick.-Clemson College

Professor kempster of Missouri Agri-
cultural College Gives Rations for
Winter Feeding.

Hens cannot lay consistently unless
they have the right feeds in the right
proportions. II. L. Kempster, asso-
ciate professor of poultry husbandry
in the Missouri College of Agriculture,
gives the following rations for win
ter feeding:
(1) Scratch food: One part wheat,
two parts corn.
Mash (ground food) One part bran,
one part middlings (shorts), one part
cornmeal, one part commercial beef
scrap.
(2)) Scratch food: Two parts corn
one part wheat.
Mash: Ground oats, buttermilk or
sour milk as drink.
The parts in the rations are given
by weight and not by volume. Other
factors are met in egg production, and
1t may be that proper feeding will not
produce desired results. However, de-
sired results cannot be obtained with
out proper feeding. The ration is one
of the important factors in egg pro-
duction which can be controlled. Ger
tainly the man who feeds for egg pro-
duction will receive more eggs in n
year than the man who follows no sys-
tematic feeding plan. Mr.. Kempster

five or thirty hens be kept, two toms
should not be allowed to run with them
at the same time, but one should be
confined one day and the other the
next. When two toms are allowed to
run together during the mating season,
they fight badly, and the stronger does
rtctically all of the mating.
Turkey hens are wont to "steal'
their nests in hidden places. Confine
the hens early some morning soon after
they have come down from roost, and
let them out late in the afternoon
Those that are laying will then head
for their nests in order to lay the eggs
they have been holding. You can then
gather the eggs and set them to suit
your plans.
Turkey hens, chicken hens and in
cubators are commonly used to incu-
bate turkey eggs. About week be-

where the poults can run in and out
and find grasshoppers, green vegeta-
ton and other feed The coop should
be moved to fresh ground every day.
Improper feeding and close confine-
ment cause many failures 10 turkey
raising. Given free range on The av-
erage farm, the poults can easily pick
up their own living. If there is little
or NJ feed outside the coop for the
poults to pick up, they should be fed
about five times day, feeding only
small quantity at time. A good
feed for the first few days is stale
bread soaked in milk and squeezed dry.
Corn-bread crumbs and clabbered milk
or cottage cheese is also quite often
fed and with excellent results. Green
feed and grit should be on hand at all
times. AS the poults grow older, the
ration should gradually be changed
to grain.

House Building in Bermuda
Simple and Cheap Process.

When a native of Bermuda decides
to some quarry where the soft, rich,
creamy coral sandstone has been
stripped of its thin earth covering, and
begins saving. He, or someone en-
ployed by him, with long, coarse
toothed saw, cuts out blocks of stone
measuring about two feet long, one
foot wide and six inches thick. AS
soon as he has quarried enough of
these blocks he allows them to stand
in the open air for q few weeks to
harden, for when first cut they are as
full of holes as q Swiss cheese and
almost as soft, Joseph Laren writes
in st. Nicholas. The hardening
period over, the blocks are placed one
on top of another to form the walls,
and one beside another on q support
ing framework, overlapping a little at
their upper and lower edges to make
the roof.
when the building has been erected
the Bermudian covers his outside walls
ana roof with a thick coat of white
wash, which hides all the cracks and
joints and holes in the stone and gives
the house smooth, beautiful finish.
which is very pleasant to the eye, and
just as pleasant to the sense of touch.
Even the big chimneys, the porches
and the fences are built of the same
stone.
The white roofs have another i'm
portant office, for the rain that falls
upon them, as it runs off, is caught and
led into cisterns. 1t is easy to under
stand how important this is when one
learns that there are no streams or
wells in Bermuda and that the island
ers are thus entirely dependent on
those cisterns for their water supply.

FREE RANGE is ESSENTIAL FOR TURKEYS

FOR those who are favorably stu

Given plenty of range where the tur-

weeds and grasses, waste grain, acorns
ana nuts of various kinds, the cost
OF raising them is very small and the
profits large. Grain and stock farms
are particularly well adapted to tur-

everything runs along smoothly
and with no Opposition we lose
the correctness of our vision, be-
come careless and get off edge.

Opposition keeps you constant

you think and plan your hardest
and act beyond your normal pow
ers.
Win on your mettle.

A young husband might eat sugar

When you see your fowls picking
the feathers from their mates, it's an
indication that they want animal food
of some kind.
When fowls begin the practice Of
'feather-pulling" they become almost
worthless. See that they are provided
with meat before they get the habit.
It's not how much you feed, but the
KIND and the manner you feed it. If
you have hopper, you can feed
enough to last the fowls several days.
III you feed in litter, make sure
that the litter is deep enough that the
FOWLS will have to work long and hard
to obtain ii, then you will get eggs.
It's the loafing fowls that introduce
evil habits, such as egg-eating, feath-
er-pulling and such things. Make them
work for living and you will escape
such evils. y
Hens which are not properly fed
ana do not have pure air to breathe.
suffer from the cold more than those
which are well fed and kept in we'll
ventilated houses.
An uncomfortable hen is not good
layer; therefore, make the poultry
house comfortable and cheerful, if you
want to get the best results from the
food you feed.
Although geese and ducks are water
fowls and often will swim in the cold
est water, they must have the floor
of their house well bedded with dry
material or they will not be healthy.

Why One Can See Better in
Moderate Than Bright Light.

An observant chauffeur, passing an
noted that objects at the side of the
road which had been distinctly visible
dropped out of sight when the bright
lights were thrown upon them. Since
one can see better in little light than
In no light, he wondered, why can one
not see better in bright light than in
moderate light?
The answer is, paradoxically, that
the less light there is the better one
sees, for the brighter the object the
less efficient is the eyesight. If, after
we have been in darkness, we suddenly
turn on bright light and look at our
eyes in the mirror, we can see the pupil
of the eye rapidly growing smaller. If
we reduce the light the pupil dilates
again. What happens is the same as
In the camera when we adjust the shut
ter to the intensity of the light.
The colored iris of the eye CORE
spends to the shutter. 1t consists chief
~ of q muscle which. as the light in
creases, is stimulated to contract, thus
drawing the curtain and shutting out
some of the superfiuous light. 1t usual
ly takes at few seconds for this adjust
ment to take place. Thus when we
emerge from darkness into light we are
blinded until the iris can shut out some
II the light from the eyes.
