POULTRY NOTE3.
.A. successful poultry.raiser feeds
wheat in the morning, barley at
noon and wheat m the evening. In
addition to the barley he gives the
slops and refuse from the kitchen
after boiling it. The wheat gives
a rich yellow color to the yolks
which is so much desired in the
city where eggs are sold iu retail
markete.
The two destroying elements with
young turkeye are uncooked feud
and the morning dew. They should
not be given food that is uncooked
for the fire. few weeks. Old bread
soaked in sonr milk is best. Next
comes Indian meal puddiug. In
these oases the food is sweeten all
it can be before taken into the
crop.
The farmer who keep It flock of
twenty.five to thirty lane, with the
usual accompaniment ole hundred
or more lively chicks, and allows
them to share his domain 10 cone•
mon with himeelf, his other stook
and farm utensils, finds perplexity
and most abominable company et
every turn. The hen at large, in
her multiplied form, is woree than
an army of twists, and her follow-
ing, as offensive as a pestilenee.
If young chicks and turkeys ap-
• pear stupid and ailing; examine
them for lice. A little grease put on
top of the head and under thewinge
will generally prove efficacious.
Treat the mother in like manner.
Fumigate the hen house by burning
sulphur therein, making tha house
as elose as possible for a few hours.
Also weigh every part with kerosene,
or whitewash with °audits lime at
least twice a year, and give the
fowls plenty of dust or dry ashes,
and there will be no trouble from
hoe.
An experiencedpoultryman thinks
the essential cause of failure in eo
many of the attempts to keep fowls
in large numbers is due to a lack of
care. A farmer will rise at four
o'clock in the morning to feed and
milk his cows, will carefully clean
out the stalls and prepare the beds
for the cows, and his work does not
end till late : but he will ieet do so
much work for the hens. Yet the
hens will pay, when properly cared
for, five times as much profit, in
proportion to labor and capital
vested, as the cows.

The only euro way to clean out a
nest should the contents become
Polled, is to carry the box outside,
burnthe hay, and then dip a sponge
in kerosene and Apply a lighted
match to the box, fiat rubbing. it
over with the sponge. The oil will
burn for a few moments over the
box and then cease. If •there are
any lice they will have but a poor
chance. If an egg is broken in the
nest the result ie usually lice, unless
the nest is at once eleaned, and tho!

A. tiorreepondent of the London
Journal of Horticultural says, in ro.
ference to the question of sex iu
eggs :—Last winter an old poultry
keeper told me les could distiuguish
the sex in eggs. I laughed at him,
mid was 1100 • the less skeptical
when he told me the following
secret :—Eggs with the air bladder
ou the centre of the crown of the
egg will produce. cockerels ; those
with the bladder ouo side will pro.
duce pullets. The old man was HO
certain of the truth of this dogma,
and hie poultry yard eo far confirm
ed it, that I determined to make ma
permeate upou it this year. 1
have done se, registering the egg
bladded vertical, or bladder ou one
side, rejected all in which it wad not
one or the other, as in' some it is
only very slightly out of the oeuter.
The following is the result :—Fifty-
eight chickene wee° batched, three
are dead, eleven are yet too young to
decide upon their sex; of the re-
maining forty toter, every (me 11300
turned out true to the old utan's
theory. This, of course, may be an
accidental coinoidence, but I shall
certainly try the experiment again..
STOCX NOTES.
A good sharp fodder cutter, need
nt every feeding, will save more
than its cost, as well as pay fur the
labor of outtiug every 1100.50a. All
the coarse food should • be panted
through the forlder.cutter.
Much of the profit of the farm
this year will come from the pigs.
The pig for profit is the pig that
grows from the start and keeps on
growing every week, and every day'
in the week, and every hour in the
day, never stopping for Sabbaths or
the first of July.
Calves should be taught to eat tis
early as possible, so the milk ration
may be supplemented by other 'food
that will insure a rapid growth.
Shorts, ground oats, or barley meal,
with a little otl.cake meal and good
hay will soon he eaten rapidly by ti he
calves and keep, there in a healthy,
thrifty Condition. They should also
be allowed plenty of exercise on
good pasture. --National Live Stock
