August 4, igcg. TH Household POULTRY KEEPING IN ENGLAND. By IVTss Louise V. Spencer. One of my Christmas piesents was a poultry paper published in England. It shows the lively interest our trans Atlantic cousins, particularly women, take in fancy poultry. They have a "Ladies' Poultry Club," managed in best up-to-date style, with a number of challenge cups, badges, medals, etc. An "Honorable Poultry Ins.ructress" has just concluded a three weeks' course of lectures and practical instruction. A good many advertisements by ' ladies," who breed and exhibit largely "exporting to all parts of the world," one stating a "vacancy" for pupils. "Training given in all branches, including carpentry, scientific breeding and experimental work on the formation of breeds." I have never seen the like in an American journal. Can it be that we are cenina tne times? I am glad to And that among the Amer ican chickens quoted and advertised Rose Comb Rhode Island Reds, my favorite breed, is well known and appreciated. The food given pen birds on a large poultry plant is practically the same proportion that I give, except "horse flesh" is said to he cheaper and more efficacious than granulated meats. I never use the granulated meats, as I can get beef heads for fifteen cents each and, having found my feeding of them a fine egg producer as well as reasonably cheap, I have never seen reason for changing. Still, if "horse flesh" is cheaper and more efficacious, I would like to get some. This promises to be an exceptionally fine year for poultry. The mild winter, with plenty of green stuff growing, has kept all birds in healthy, vigorous condition. I am more firmly convinced than ever that Rose Comb Rhode Island Reds are the finest general-purpose fowl known.? Southern Planter. FOR THE FARM HORSE When two horses become accustomed to working together, don't change them. In matching up the work teams mate them in size, weight and disposition as nearly as possible. It is very hard on a prompt horse to be obliged to work with a lazy one. The wear and tear is great and unnecessary, and a loss. Never tolerate a man on a farm who yanks, kicks or whips a horse. In no case should the colt be allowed to follow when the mare is at work. Sow a good patch of carrots for the horses th's year, if you never have before. Do not bang the bits against the horse's teeth. Be patient and he will open his mouth. Don't toggle your harnesses up with strings. No surer way to invite trouble; have everything stout. Get a first-class horse dentist to look over the teeth of every horse on the farm, young and old.?Farm Journal, June, 1909.
