Treatment of the Raspberry

One or two cultivationsare required
by the raspberry plantation after the
fruit is off. This serves to loosen the
ground and conserves much moisture.

When new cockerels are needed for
a range flock it often pays to select
them inthe late summer and let them
grow up together. This prevents a
lot of fighting that may result if full
grown cockerels from different sources
are placed together during the winter.
The early buyer also has a good se-
lection of the best early maturing
males at a price much below their win-
ter value. • te-,
The best breeding cockerels are
birds that show signs of good size for
the breed, early maturity and a bright
intelligent head with medium. beak. If
you have pedigrees back of the birds,
that is desirable, but do not take birds
on their pedigree alone. I have seen
two coelterels from the same mating
showing great variation. One is the
slow feathering type and about half
the size of the other at four months
of age. One shows weak vigor, the
other a picture of strength snd vital-
ity. There is no question of which
type you wish -to multiply.

heise andmanual labor is not so
valuable. This is the method which is
used in manuring sed land for corn
on the -Central Experimental Farm,
Ottawa, after considerable experience
with other methods. Whenever Pos-
sible, this method is recommended.
However, there are some circuin-
stances when this method should not
be used. If there are many noxious
weed seeds in the manure, it is a mis-
take to scatter them about a field in
green manure. The manure should
be allowed to rot in order to kill these
weeds before spreading it upon the
field. The rotting of the manure is a
very reliable 'nettled of killing all the
weed seede and, ae it is very poor
business to plant viable weed seeds,
