AGRICULTURAL Toultry anti Egg Product Profitable In the South. It is not a |ittle singular that in all that has been said in favor of a diversi¬ fication of crops for the cotton States, and for all that baa been recommended, so little emphasis has been put upon the breeding, raising and feeding poul¬ try, and egg production This ;s, per¬ haps, because It has been rogarded as a small business, and partly because of the weakness of the negro for the white man's chickens and the more forehanded brethren To the first objection, it may be said that all, or nearly Till great, things, and especially great agricultural industries, begin small, as witness the condition of the dairy interest forty years ago, or or even twenty—and the cotton inter¬ est, even before the invention of the power gin ; and to the second if care is not taken to house Dightly aad secuiely fasten up from marauders their con¬ tents, thore can be uo such thing as profit in the poultry business in any country. We do not foar that the.oegro will commit ‘fiat burglary’ to gratify his weakness for hi3 neighbor’s chickens; and if in the cotton States breeders will take as much pains in looking after their fowls as those of the North they will suffer quite as little from thievery. South of thirty-eight degrees, and clear down to the Gulf of Mexico, lies a soil and climate admirably fitted for poultry production, and whenever the fact is well understood and acted upon, this portion of the country will have as near a monopoly of the poultry bush ness as the corn and cattle States have of beef and pork predictions. Just now, iu the chief commercial centers hereabouts, like Louisville, Cincinnati or Chicago; eggs are quoted at from 18c to 25o a dozen, and will so continue to be all winter long. This winter demand for eggs, the South by soil aDd climate, should be abundautly able to supply: and when her farmers shall have so added to those great delicacies in quantities sufficient to meet the Northern and European demand, they will have no reason for dismissing the subject of chicken breed jug as a small and unprofitable bush ness. —Poultry Journal. Turkey Raising. For some years I have followed the :rmehoiiorecl practice of putting the first lot of turkey eggs UDder common hens to batch and raise, each success¬ ive year bringing its share of death, disease, aud consequent disappointment, in the size of the Hock in the fall, regu¬ lated by the season as it was favorable, pr the reverse. My coops were built large and roomy, and kept clean as possible, but every rainy time was death to more or less of the little ‘moslems’ in spite of all precautions. Last spring we had about two hun¬ dred and fifty with bens when the rainy spell came on. After suffering the usu¬ al experience, a council of deliberation was bold, when the conclusion was ar¬ rived at that there was nothing to be lost, aud perhaps something to be gain¬ ed, by letting the turkeys raise their own young. Accordingly, after that, as each one hatched, she was placed in a pasture lot with plenty of shade and range—bidden U-od-spoed and good luck. Wet mornings tkev were fed early, and rainy days often, to keep them from wandering. After the insect Beason was fully inaugurated, no feed was given. The result was highly sat isfaotory, as the size of the young flock testified. Some of the old ones raised pvery one they left the nett with. Henceforth my plan will be to set a iieu at the same time as the turkey, giving both clutches at batchiDg time to the turkey, and discard all coops. My ex-, perience last season has shown me tb I can raise a much larger percentage of young at much loss cost of money and trouble than by the old plan, lu share, turkeys are like Indians iu oue —to be eoatentediand thrifty, they be allowed to follow their Daiural pensityof roaming—always being in reasonable bouDds.— Ex. One Sabbath afternoon a minister outerving by the time be ed the third ‘bead’ of bis discourse the drowsy disposition of several «f his bearers, quietly remarked: ‘In the third place those of you who are awake will please lake notice, etc.' ITHE CLEVELAND ADVERTISER.
