FAITH IN THE WYANDOTTE.
Good Points of the Breed Explained by
Successful Poultry Raiser.
In the New England Homestead F.
B. Williams of Litchfield county,
Conn., a successful poultry raiser, ex
plains as -follows' his faith in the
White Wyandotte:
‘‘l am making poultry my principal
occupation and, like any business man,
naturally wish to produce that which
will return the largest profit. Former
ly I tried having several of the most
popular breeds and carefully watched
results. One by one I discarded the
other breeds and ufter about twelve
years' experience with White Wyan
dottes have decided in favor of them.
"Other breeds did splendidly at
times, but after averaging up year
after year and for all purposes com
bined I found nothing to equal White
Wyandottes. The birds are of bloclty
shape anil tender flesh, making the fin
est of broilers and roasters, and are fit
for market as broilers at an earlier age
than nearly any other breed, putting
on flesh from the start, while other
breeds are growing an abundance of

feathers. Wyandotte pinfeathers, be
ing white, make them easier to dress
and give the carcass a neat appear
ance. As layers White Wyandottes
are steady and will produce eggs ev
ery mouth In the year and many of
(hem. The largest proportion of them
will he produced when eggs sell high,
therefore the profit. They are not per
sistent sitters, although making the
best of mothers, and are excellent for
agers.”
The Incubators are started by Mr.
Williams the middle of January, and
the combined capacity is about 1,500
eggs. The hatching is continued up to
July 1. Mr. Williams built a two story
incubator brooder house, which he calls
his chicken factory.
Burning Stumps.
In the early part of the winter bore
a two Inch auger hole to a depth of
about three inches In the top of each
stump to be removed, fill the hole with
refined nitrate of potash and drive a
pin tight on It. Let It remain until
the spring, when the potash will he
absorbed. Pour a little oil on the top
of the stump and set afire. The entire
stump and in a great many instances
all the roots will lx> consumed by a
slow burning.—Rural New' Yorker.
Farm losses wiH pay for first class
rural improvements. He who
drains hi 6 barnyard bores a hole
into the lowest comer of his safety
deposit vault.
Chemical Fertilizers.
There is one thing which all farmers
who use chemicals should remember:
These chemicals should he spread as
evenly as possible. They are all con
centrated and will burn or injure veg
etation if they are dumped in handfuls
upon growing crops. / They should be
spread out all over the ground.
Orchard and Garden.
Take precautions against apples
frosting in storage. Where there is
danger from freezing set a large tub
of warm water in the cellar to raise
the temperature. If freezing occurs
allow the fruit to thaw slowly.
The farmer who finds it cheaper to
buy fruit than to raise it usually goes
without it most of the time.
Plum trees set from sixteen to twen
ty feet apart will need good, vigorous
pruning to keep them in bounds in
later years.
The ground In the newly set straw
berry bed should be kept stirred and
rich to enable the plants to go through
the winter in good shape.
A simple rule arrangement
of dooryard trees and shrubs is never
to set them in straight lines, but in
groups with curving boundaries.
An ideal peach orchard location is a
high, rolling elevation where the very
best air drainage is obtainable, and if
the laud slopes toward the northwest
so much the better. Never set peach
trees in a hollow.
The man who thinks it is a woman’s
work to keep a garden going was not
built on right lines. The garden should
be considered as important as any
other part of the farm and treated ac
cordingly. ..
