Soy beans grow on a great variety
OF soils, but do best on mellow, fer
tile loans and clay. They do fairly
well on sandy soils, especially those
containing lime.
For its best development the
bean requires a well-drained soil, but
is able to stand more water in the
soil than either corn or cow-peas af-
ter beginning to grow. Under no
circumstances, however. should the
seed be sown on soil which is satur-
ated with water for a great portion
of the year, nor on close soils that
are inclined to bake. Soy beans
will grow on soils too poor TO grow
the cioyers, but will not generally
do as well on these soils as will cow
peas. Thorough preparation of the
land is essential for best results.
breaking should be deep and should
be followed by a thorough disking

loose and mellow. All clods should
be crushed and weeds and grass de-
stroyed and Farm.

Good authorities place laundering at

such a task. It would be lar bet

| to-date poultrymen supply finely
| ground feed that they call a dry
mash" which is placed in a self feed
inE hopper. This dry mash contains
/ cof scrap, wheat bran. alfalfa meal,
| oil meal and some powdered char
coal The birds can eat as much Of
this dry mash as they please. TIL"
grain mixture consists Of two parts
cracked corn, two parts of wheat,
and one part of oats. The dry mash
consists of one part of bran, two parts
of dried bed scrap, two parts finely
ground corn meal, two parts of alfal-
ia meal and one-fourth part of char
coal. These mixed feeds cause =
heavy production of eggs. Green
sprouted oats and corn silsge can BE-
fed TO advantage during the winter.
II is not necessary that the poultry
house should be kept warmer than
the outside temperature. The
chickens will, of course, generate
some heat and this heat should not
be los through the entrance of
drafts. The chickens, OF course,
have on their new coats and can keep
fairly warm if they are properly
housed. Above all the floor and The
interior of the poultry house should
be dry. Dampness is more fatal
than cold.
The cockerels that are intended
for market should now be disposed
of and not carried throughout the
winter, and the pullets should he
culled out and sold.
The farmer should be on intimate
terms with the poultry. He should
pick them up and make friends with
them. The birds will respond TO such !.
treatment. This spring the farmer
should plan to buy some pure bred .
eggs so that next summer he may be .
gin to dispose of his mongrel birds
and ultimately have a pure bred
flock.
Every farmer should prepare to 3
hatch some eggs early this pring.
The pullets that were hatched early
last spring and which were well fed
and allowed free farm range secured
an abundance of green feed and bugs
on the farm during last spring AM
summer. and these pullets are the
mainstay OF the egg market at tn"
present time. II is the early hatch
ed pullets that are supplying eggs
this winter.
The most essential points just az
the present time are as follows:
The birds should be put in winter
quarters where they will have plenty
Of exercise, they must he supplied
