Rearing Chickens on the Farm. There is eaery indication that there. will be a great consumption of poultry in Canada this year. The den-iand for every elms shows a striking increase during the last few years. Commission merchants in Great Britain can handle profitebly at least $1,000,000 worth of our poultry yearly. .Last year the ex- port of chickens to Great Britain was materially reduced on account of the greab demand in Canada. The poultry exports from Canada to Great Britain were only $160,518, a small proportion of the- $5,154a092 imported by .the alotber Country. The greatest value of poultry was exported from Russia, Belgium'France and the United States. Each of these countries ship- ped over a $1,000,000 worth. It is e short-sighted policy on the part of our farmers to neglect this industry, when there is an unsatisfied demand for poultry; information with regard to any branch of the business can be had gratis, and the business is a profitable one. It will pay almost every farmer to improve his flock before the breeding season begins. The old fowls should be killed. There is a greatly increased profit n. breeding from utility -type specimens rather than from common barnyarl stock. It is preferable to se- lect the eggs -for hatching from a breeding pen of the best ten or twelve hens and one cockerel rather than from the larger numher of laying hens on the farm. As a general rule, the eggs that are incubated on thelartn are the eggs from the poorer layers. A utility -type Plymouth Rock cockerel should be bought and placed at the head of the breeding pen. The eggs for batching should be kept in a cool place, (40 to 60 degrees.) The chickens should not be hatched later than the middle of June. May - batched chickens are preferable.. It is quite possible for almost every farmer to increase the number of chickens reared with little extra lebor. Sitting bens should uot be allowed to hatch chickens in any place they choose about the farm buildings. They should be in one pen, set apart for this purpose. The nest boxes should be made without a floor and placed around the sides of the pen. Two or three shovelfuls of earth should he thrown into each nest box and a hollow space scooped out for the eggs; the earth shonld be covered sparingly with straw. Tile sitting 'hen should be thoroughly dusted with sulphur to kill the yearnin. All of them should be fed on whole grain and grit, and watered at one time. The hens should he placed on the nests and closed in when they finish feeding. It is advis- able to stela, several hens together. Tlee infertile eggs can then be taken out on the ninth day iind one or more of the hens reset. There is a great loss in farm -reared chickens, caused by the mother hen having her liberty. The hen wanders thvough the wet grass; the chickens follow her and become chilled and the weaker ones die. This loss can he pie i vented by confining the hens n a brood coop. It is more setisfaetory to have a large brood coop that will be a shelter dining inclement weather. The hen and chickens should be placed le it geese ada. This will reduce tae mortality doe to the chickens being reared on infeeted ground iirouhd the farm buildings. A rintribil' of cases heve been reported to the Poultry Di- vision of chickens And tuekeys dying because of feeding on ground previous- ly infested, by diseased fowls. Yours very trnly, W. A.

DEA.TEl.---Our citizens were again shocked and grieved on Saterday on learning pf the death of Mr. Thomas Penfound, of the 2nd concession. Mr. Pen &mud was ti victim of .pneumonia. A sad feature in connection with his death was that Boyne Penfound, a son of the deceased, who has been attend- ing the Clinton Oollegiete for several terms, was taken 111 on Friday. Pneu- monia developed, and the father be- came anxious, and very likelyanental- ly worried himself into the same afflic- tion. The son had been home but a short time when the father was taken down with the same malady and died on the day stated . above. Deceased was a man in the prime of life not being quite ea years o age. and was to all appearance a steoug, wirey man, who in the natural course of events, should live to a good old age. Mr. Penfound resided on the homestead farm, having succeeded his father. He was a man of inore than ordinary intelligence,And of pi ogressive ideas. He was a wenn hearted, pleasant companion and took a deep interest in all public matters. An obliging neighbor and a good and useful citizen has been removed by his death. Be was twice married and his widow and a family survive lune and will always aweigh the memory of a, kind and thoughtfial husband and in- dulgent but wise parent. The retnaInS weee interred in Beard's cemetery on Tnesdav and the people showed their respect for the Memory of the deceased by turning out in lame nembers to paythis last tribnte of respect to one who had been so highly esteemed by tdt.
