this observation of B,dley':: "The

ogue the greater is the probability
that the variety is generally useful,
at is only after varieties have been
proved and have becomestaple that
descriptions become short and .tame;
they do not need advertising."

And then again. they are the annual
novelties, Only the standard sorts
and the well -tried specialties can be
depended upon either in the commer-
cial garden ur the home garden. But
growers should not neglect the new
varieties, or novelties, altogether.
Progressive market gardeners always
have a personal spot on their
far the testing of novelties and other
varieties with which they are nut
familiar -and amateurs will find great
delight in devoting space to such eae
periments. Quite frequently pee finds

mash.
This is a very simple method of feed-
ing laying hens, and there is not much
danger of overfeeding them if they
have been properly bred. For breeding
stock we would .recommend a ration
composed principally of corn, wheat'
and oats and no mash or beef scraps.
Provide plenty of green food and com-
pel the breeders to take plenty of ex-
ercise. This will enable you to get
eggs which are fertile and which will
hatch strong, vigorous chicks which.

ing stock should not be fed so freely
and compelled to talte more exercise.
Feed more whole grain to the breed-
ers and avoid much mash or beet

FEEDING FOR EGGS.
Method Employed at the Missouri Ex-
periment Station.
The method of feeding the hens in
the national egg laying contest at the
Missouri state poultry experiment sta-

Equal parts of corn and wheat in

one part wheat in winter months and
one part corn chop and two parts wheat

MAKING SHEEP PAY.
Close Attention to Details Marks the
Successful Shepherd.
Some men invariably do well with
their ewes in winter, writes a sheep
raiser in the National Stockman. Thg
flock is kept in good flesh, the Iambs
'come strong, and on such farms sheep
are in favor. Others allow the ewes to
grow thin in flesh, lambs are lost, and
'the owner has had "bad luck." The
difference does not lie wholly in the
feed given nor the ewes kept. A
'lot of it is in the man. Perhaps the
very small amount of attention re-
quired during the summer months has
something to do with it. The feeling
that sheep can do very well with scant
core lingers with some over into the
winter months, and the result is dis-
astrous. Anyhow it Is a pretty good
The Wyandotte is nailed "the bird
of curves." Short back, body and
legs, very blocky, with broad back
and full breast, rose comb, doe
grained flesh, it is a splendid fowl
for broilers and roasters, but there
are also many strains of heavy
layers. The Wyandotte shown is a
fine specimen.

Oxford sheep are the largest and
heaviest of the Down breeds. When
in good flesh the ram should weigh
150 pounds or more. The wool Is
rather coarser than that of other
medium wool breeds, and the Recce

Idaho's Good Bull Law.
The state or Idaho has a stringent
law prohibiting the running on the
openerange of any bull not registered
as a pure bred. Dairy bred hulls are
not allowed on the open venae at all.
These laws are vigorously enfureed.
Idaho stands alone in this legislation
against scrub or grade bulls. 1t some
means could be devised whereby every
grade ball could be replaced by n first
class pure bred it would be worth
many tbousnnds of dollars to the rut
tie interests or the nation.
gamble that the man who bas little
love for sheep will have indifferent suc-
cess with them.
It is natural, of course, for us to
spend the most time and do best with
stock we favor. if we like especially
well to handle sheep we will spend
much more time with them than it
takes to simply put the feed and wa-
ter before them so many times each
day. We will note future needs and
supply them. We will study their
fleeces and type and know better what
should be done in the breeding line.
We will know and remember those not
worth keeping and send them to the
block before they eat feed they can-
not pay for. It is this constant atten-
tion to details that marks the differ
ence, in a great majority of cases, be-
tween success and failure.
Certainly we all desire to improve
our sheep, and for two reaeons-drat,
because we know that better sheep
mean more .profit and, second, be-
cause we take pride in improved stock.

The Old Fashioned Purging
and Griping Action of Pills
Is Now Done Away With.
Milburn's Laxa-Liver Pills gently
unlock the secretions, clear away ail
waste and effete matter from the system,
and give tone and vitality to the whole
intestinal tract.
They do this by acting directly on the
liver, and making the bile pass through
.thp bowels instead of allowing it to get
into the blood, and thus causing consti-
pation, jaundice, catarrh of the stomach
and similar troubles.
Mrs. L. M. Ratchford, Peterboro, Ont.,
writes: "Having been troubled for
years with constipation, and trying many
different remedies which did me no good
whatever, I was asked to try Milburn's
Laxa-Liver Pills, I have found them
most beneficial, for they are indeed
splendid pills, and I can gladly recom-
mend thetas to all people who suffer from
constipation."
