and losses do no;
actually begin ua
til he bus a few,
scores of .baby
chickens on hi®
hands. Success or
failure will be de-
termined at this
point-
Chickens do noi
require food fur
the first thirty-six hours after hatching.
One of the best foods that can be feci
the first few days is stale bread soak-
ed in milk. This should be crumbled
fine and placed where the chickens
have free access to it and where they
cannot step on it. One of the difficult
problems for the poultryman is to de-
vise some means for feeding little
chickens so that they can consume the
food without soiling it. If placed on
the floor of the brooder or the brooder
run the larger p*r,t of the food will
be trampled upon and will soon be-
come unfit to eat. ' Small, narrow
trays or troughs are easily made and
answer the purpose of keeping the
chicks from tramping on their food.
Granulated oats (with the hulls re-
moved! make an excellent food for
young chickens. There is perhaps no
better grain for young chickens than
oats prepared in this manner. It may
be fed to good advantage after the sec-
ond or third day in connection with
the bread sopped In milk.
The chickens should have free access
to some kind of grit after the first
day. Coarse sand makes an excellent
grit for young chickens. As they get
a little older some coarser material
must be provided.
Milk is an excellent food for these
young fowls, but It requires skill In
feeding. One of the great difficulties
in rearing fowls Is to carry young
chickens through the first two weeks
without bowel disorders. Too lo»*
temperature In the brooder, improper
food and Injudicious feeding, even li
the right kinds of food are given, each
plays im Important part in producing
these disorders. After the first ten
days milk may be given more freeiy
perhaps than during the earlier stages
of the chick’s existence.
A mixture of fine middlings, wheat
bran, cornrneal and a little Unseen
meal softened with milk makes a valu
able food. Hard boiled eggs may be
fed from the beginning, but. like milk,
require more skill than the feeding of
feread gopj>o<ijo mjlk. On farms where
screenings Trom the various grains be-
come really a by product these form a
cheap and efficient footj for chickens
Wheat screenings especially form one
of the best foods If they contain a con-
siderable portion of good kernels tlmi
have been cracked in threshing. Then,
•too. the screenings contain a number of
weed seeds that have some feeding
value and are relished by the fowls
TJiey not only provide sustenance, but
give variety, and this in a measure im
proves the general health.
A good mixture of grains is equal
parts of wbole wheat, cracked corn and
cut or crushed oats. Some poulterers
prefer to feed wheat one day, corn the
nejxt and oats the next. This is all
right either way. Grain once a day is
sufficient if a variety of other food is
obtainable. A cheap and valuable food
is stale bread or rolls which bakeries
and restaurants sell at 1 cent a pound.
Hotel and restaurant table scraps may
also be obtained at a small cost All
kinds of vegetables, raw or cooked,
may be used. Meat scraps or ground
bone may be fed sparingly with mash.
Give the grain in a clean litter early in
the morning, masb at noon and vege-
tables. softened bread or grain in the
evening. Make the masb with sklm-
milk if it is available. Sonr milk and
whey are good substitutes now and
again for mature fowls.
Where fowls are kept in confinement
it will be necessary to supply some
meat food. Finely cut fresh bone from
tbe meat markets is one of the best, if
not tbe best, kind of meat for laying
bens. Unfortunately It is not prac-
ticable for many poultrymen to depend
wholly on this product, for tbe reason
that it is often inconvenient or impos-
sible to obtain, and when once secured
it cannot be kept in warm weather
without becoming tainted. Tainted
bones should be rejected as unfit for
food. Skimmilk may be substituted
wholly or in part for meat food with-
out a decrease in egg production, pro-
vided the proper grain ration is given
BIRDS ARE FARMERS’ FRIENDS
Most Valuable Campaigners Against
Destructive Insects.
Last year American' farmers lost $1.-
250,000.000 through the depredations
of insects, according to figures compil-
ed by the department of agriculture.
Much of that loss was suffered in the
south, aud recently James Henry Rice.
Jr., field secretary for the National As-
sociation of Audubon Societies, which
has its geueral headquarters in New
York, went to Atlanta to establish
southern headquarters.
Birds of all sorts play an Important
part In exterminating Insect pests, and
because of this the establishment of
southern headquarters for the bird pro-
tective organization is directly related
to tbe condition of crop destruction
It is estimated by an Atlanta authority
that Georgia alone suffered $40,000,000
crop losses as a result of insects last
year. In all of the southern states, es-
pecially the cotton states, where the
boll weevil still makes a heavy toll on
agriculture, the damage wrought by in-
sects is constantly increasing. This is
being used as an argument by the Au-
dubon societies and is gaining for them
loyal support among southern agricul-
turists.
Mr. Rice says Insectivorous birds in
Georgia consume more than 150,000
bushels of insects a day. Deprived of
the birds' protection, its fields and or-
chards would become a desert.
The figures given by the agricultural
department do not represent all of the
loss entailed by insects, bow6ver.
Many more millions of dollars are
spent in the campaigns fighting in-
sects. and these expenditures are log-
ically losses caused by insects. Mas-
sachusetts's spending $1,000,000 a year
fighting the gypsy and browntaii
moths. It is combating them with
fire. ak, sprayed poison and creosote,
and still many hundreds of fine old
elms in Massachusetts are falling each
year, and other valuable vegetation is
dying because of the insects’ activities.
The same kind of campaign against
other insects is being carried on in a
score of states at heavy expenditure
and with pitifully small results. The
Audubon societies argue that tbe most
valuable and successful campaigners
against destructive insects are birds,
and the argument is getting more
game protective laws and a heartier
popular support.

Especially Beneficial In Case of Legu-
minous Plante.
It has long been known that some
plants are benefited and some are in-
jured by association. Association seems
to be especially beneficial in case
df leguminous plants (peas, clover,
etc.) and cereals or grasses. Recent
investigations by tbe New York Cor-
nell and the New Jersey experiment
stations throw new light on the rea-
sons for this beneficial effect It ap-
pears that the leguminous plants not
only gather nitrogen from tbe atmos-
phere by means of their root tubercle
bacteria and therefore able T)
make a large growth, but that some of
the njtrogeir so gathered Is passed on
to tufe groTn, grass or other nontegumt
nous plant associated with It’
The result is a large growth of the
nonlegutne and also a higher content
of protein or nitrogenous material,
which considerably increases its value
as food for stock. Such benefit has
l>eeu noted from the growth of clover
and timothy, alfalfa and timothy and
oats and peas. Other combinations
have not been studied. Tbe increased
growth of plants in combination over
that of single crops, together with the
improved composition of the former,
has resulted In some cases in an in-
crease of more than 30 per cent in the
production of protein per acre. This
increased value probably extends to
tbe roots and stems left in tbe soil and
means much in tbe production of food
for stock and In soil Improvement
Cutworms Barred Out
Some gardens are so infested with
cutworms that many gardeners have
almost given up in despair. Here is a
device that fools
the cutworms.
Take a piece of
strong paper about
sixteen inches
long and five
inches wide, cut
slits in one edge
about two inches
deep and form in
a hat shape- as in A Place around the
plant with rim about one-half inch
deep in the ground and cover as in B,
and you will stop tbe cutworms.
The slit edge should be at right an-
gles to the rest of the paper.—Farm
and Fireside.
POULTRY NOTES.
Feed some meat to the hens, but not
too heavy. Too much meat acts as a
laxative for laying hens.
Early hatched ducklings are always
most profitable. Get out as many as
you cau.
Vegetable foods are Important to the
health of the fowl. They Induce in-
creased eating and increased egg pro-
duction. Fowls eat more grain when
fed green foods than otherwise. Man-
gels, cabbage, turnips, potatoes, rape,
lettuce and onions are good vegetables
foy poultry. Potatoes are best fed
boiled.
Green cut bone is tbe finest kind of a
meat food that can be had In tbe win-
ter. It Is palatable and much relished
by tbe birds, contains from 14 to 16 per
cent of protein and costs about one-
third as much as beef scraps. It should
always be fed In limited quantities.
About one pound to thirty bens is the
right amount when fed In addition to
beef scrap —Farm Press.
IN THE HOG LOT.
Get the sows and little pigs out
on the ground as soon as possi-
ble.
To thrive best the young pigs
must have dry nests, and the
bedding should be changed fre-
quently.
The shelters should be so con-
structed that when the sow and
little ptgs are in them .they will
be protected from wind and wet.
When pigs get too fat from
lack of exercise and begin to
pant and lie around get them out
on the ground, where they must
exercise, or they will die of the
thumps.
Full and rapid growth is the
only profitable growth. Running
water and plenty of pasture will
save many pounds of feed in the
growing of a hog.
Take pains not to have any
traps about the hog yards where
the hogs may get caught and
hurt in any way.
BUYING A STALLION.
Points That Indicate High Quality In
the Draft Sire.
L. R. Wiley of Emporia, Kan., who
presented a paper at the meeting of
the Improved Stock Breeders’ associa-.
tion. had the following good advice to
give to .the prospective stallion buyer:
What the prospective stallion buyer
should look for when selecting his
horse is quality and quantity of bone.
By this we mean a good, heavy, clean
flat bone, good feet—ih fact, it is of
prime importance that we get good
feet and know how to keep them.
- Coming on up to the knee and hock,
be sure that the bone just below the
joints is large in proportion to the oth-
er bone. A clean cut prominent knee
Is essential, as is also a clean cut bony
hock that is not inclined to fill.
Further, we should find short, thick
gaskins and large stifles that come out
The introduction of Percherons
into this country began at quite an
early date, but was a long time in
gaining much Impetus, partly be-
cause, like many other new breeds
of animals, their value was slow to
be realized. Percherons did not gain
a really secure foothold in this coun-
try until the Importation of the fa-
mous horse Louis Napoleon in 185L
With the birth and development of
his progeny his value as a sire was
realized, and long before his death
he had become a very noted animal.
The fact that there are now in this
CQuntry 65^000 Percheron horses will
give some Idea of the popularity
which the breed has at*alned.
A BEAUTIFUL LIFE IS ENDED.

manhood, only eighteen years was he
permitted to be here to scatter the
fragrance of a noble character and
the influence of a Christian life.
He has been g, member of the Bap=-
tist church for four years. He was
true and faithful both to his church,
and Sunday school^ and during his**
life he lived for God. He was ambi-
tious and always an obedient boy,
having the greatest love and respect
for his parents. I can alipest hear
the heart throbs of that mother when
he called her to his bedside and told
her how tenderly he loved her, and
how much he appreciated his good
home.
He suffered intense agony the night
before the end came but he bore his
suffering with great fortitude, realiz-

even with broad, square hips. In front
we should find a good forearm, long,
sloping shoulders, a good neck of pro-
portionate length with a well developed
crest and clean cut throat.
The head should be large and bony,
the eye clear and prominent, ears of
medium length and, contrary to some
contentions, tbe face should not be
dished, as there are plenty of good
ones without this unsightly conforma-
tion.
A short back well coupled above well
sprung ribs and a long underline run-
ning low at the flank make an almost
ideal body. The average stallion pos-
sessing a well developed crest will ap-
pear low in tbe back when the fact is
he Is not Nevertheless we should
guard against tbe low back.
Treatment For Scratches.
For aggravated cases of scratches
and for grease in horses do not wash,
as suck conditions are aggravated by
washing, says the Farm Journal.
Poultice the part with hot flaxseed
meal for three days. If there Is a bad
odor mix two or three tablespoonfuls
of powdered wood charcoal and a cou-
ple of teaspoonfuls of coal tar disin-
fectant In each poultice. After dis-
continuing tbe poultices apply three
times a day an ointment composed of
one dram each of spirits of camphor
and compound tincture of benzoin and
two drams of sulphur mixed in one
ounce of lanoline or fresh lard. If a
month of this treatment does not avail
cleanse the parts and blister with
cerate of cantbarides, and go on using
tbe ointment as before after tbe blister
has been washed off in two days.
Hogs For Pasture.
There is no breed of swine especially
adapted for forage purposes. Any of
the recognized fat breeds will thrive
In pastured areas, provided they are
given in addition sufficient grain to
enable rapid and continuous growth
Representatives of the bacon breeds
are not so well adapted for pasturing,
as they are inclined to waste and uti-
lize energy roaming about the field.
Feed Makes Milk.
The cow that makes tbe best yield is
the cow that eats the most feed.
Among milk rows of dairy breeding it
is exceptional when a large feeder
proves unprofitable. It is the light feed-
er among such class of cattle that Is
disposed of first Since milk can be
had only from feed, the more feed the
cow can convert lntojnllk at a profit
the more profitable sbe^is to her owner.
Looking up he said, "‘Auntie, the
light is growing dim, darkness is ga-
thering; how long can I be with you?”
During his life he was ever roady to
help when the call of charity came. •*
When asked who would do the little
deeds of kindness that he had been '
accustomed to doing for Wfr grand-
mother he said some one will take
my place and care for her, ^
Oh, how we will miss his dear face.
He will be missed in the church and
Sunday school and by his friends and
associates. He had a peculiar talent
for winning the friendship of all with
whom he was associated. Very quiet,
yet attractive.
Why he was taken in the bloom of
manhood when he was needed so
much in the home and in the com-
munity, and when all life seemed so
bright, we can’t quite ‘understand,
perhaps it is not for us to know.
A beautiful picture comes to mjL
vision, “When they shall come from
the east and from the west and the
innumerable host of white robed
saints shall be gathered together and
this mortal body shall have put on
immortality,” w© shall see Kenneth
there fresh In youth and manhood, set
tor a short stay but throughout etefni?
ty. Heaven will be made brighter for
his going.
Lewis, I know you will be so lonely.
He loved you as welj. Those happy
days you spent together are n<f more,
you can only cherish his sweet mem-
ory and emulate his example.
But sadder still is that home where
fa* her, mother, brothers and litle sis-
ter are gathered around, but the circle
Is broken, the bright happy smiles of
this dear boy is-not there; the empty
room; the vacant chair; the gentle
footsteps, all bespeak solitude and .
mourning.
Oh, how I wish I could lift this
sorrow from your broken hearts, but
words of mine are cold and meaning-
less to you, may the Savior, who
came to heal the broken hearted,
throw the mantle love around you and
comfort you in this great sorrow.
