QUALITY IN CHICKENS (By Uncle Jo) The day of the scrubby hen Is gone forever. There hardly seems any necessity for an argument on j thir point, for any one who has ever understood the true value ot stand- ard-brt.l poultry will never be satis- 1 fled with any other kind. If noth ing use were luvolved than the m«r.-] appeal one.;, cny one can appreciate the difference betwn vigorous, larg-, si^ed. uniformly beautiful, standard- bred fowls and a flock of scrubby, 1 scrawny, ugly hens which looks as If they were not worth scratching for, and are a* poor as they look. a| flock of pure bred poultry is an or nament to any lawn or farm yard, but this is not th-> main difference between them and their rundown 1 cousins. Standard-bred poultry will produce more eggs than can be ob tained from the common barn-yard stock, and the eggs will be more valuable for the simple reason that during batching time you will have no trouble In disposing of them forj at it ast double the market prlee. i When we Tbnsider, it costs Just as: much in food, time, labor, buildings. 1 etc., to hatch out and raise to ma turity scrubby chickens that, when) grown, will weigh but 3V& pounds perl hen and 5 pounds per cock, as it does) to hatch and raise to maturity pure| bred poultry that will weigh 7 pounds per hen and It) pounds perl cock. A well bred fowl requires no more food than a barn-yard fowl. It! requires no more time and no morel labor, but the result is twice as) great. Is it not foolish then to waste vour buildings, your lime, your la-1 bor and your money on run-down R- H. PLANT. JR., SAYS i RHODE ISLAND REDS stock, when both pleasure and profit lie In the pure bred stock? It is the start that counts very largely in any successful undertak- 1 ing. | Certainly this Is true in poultry raising. Therefore start right. It is bettor to begin on right lines than to repair mistakes later. It is easy lo start wrong in the! pure bred poultry business. It Is just as easy to make a fair beginning. You do not have to have large grounds nor expensive build- j ings. | To begin o n a large scale will. In, most cases, cost a good deal of, money. And sometimes this money j is thrown away. Usually it Is better] to begin at the beginning. Here is a business that is open to almost every] one. There Is no danger that poul try raising will ever be monopolized by a trust. Usually the best place to begin with poultry Is right where you are living, right now. There is a gold mine in that little plot behind the, house. There Is money in poultry In every pnrt of y»ls country, though ot course some parts are better adapted to poultry culture than others. The readers of this paper are fortunate In being In the favored spot. ‘‘Oct busy." (tp to now the egg market Is 20.000.000 dozen short on eggs for, this season. Do you know what that 1 means?

If popularity has nnvthlrg to do with it Rhode Island Reds have cer tainly won the day. Chicken breed | ers and faneters have found In this particular breed, more pood lasting qualities than in any other one breed. These chickens lav well the year, round, especially In the months of Pe I een.ber, January, F> brunry and MarcT the very time you want. the eggs for hatching and when market eggr | are cringing the fancy prices. From the chicks hatched in these months] you get a good lot of pullets and cock-! erels for fall matings and tor the I early fall shows. | From by own experience I roca' 1 a number of instances where 1 got eight eggs a clay from a pen of eight hens and four eggs* from a pen ot four pul lets. for ns many as eight to twelvo successive days; then perhaps » slight drop for a few days, and back again to the same high average. What other breed can equal this? The hens are good sitters and make excellent mothers; but on the other hand if you wish to break them up tt is easily done and they will re sume laying In a short time. This breed is particularly healthy, very vigorous slid line foragers, just give them something to scratch In and tho exercise Is sufficient tonic to keep them well and happy. The young chicks are strong from the start, mature rapidly and with good care will make two pound broil ers l n eight to ten weeks. The pul lets are early layers, often at the age of four or five months. As an exhibition bird I know of no breed that will equal the Reds ns they require very little preparation lor the show room. Their brilliant plumage and handsome nppenrance is always the source of much favorable comment. As a breeder cf exhibition Reds I wish to put In a word for the black ticking in tin* hackle of tin' females. We have been breeding for this black lor years, and now u few breeders who can’t get it without double mat ing want to throw it out. If wo elimi nate this now what 1b to become of the bens that have been our pride Before closing let me say a word to tho beginner. Attend all the shows you possibly can and watch the Judge carefully, so ns lo establish tho rlgli typo lit your mind. You will get more real information from one show than from a year’s reading. 1 can not say too strongly, but the very best that you can afford. If you can’t get a pen of high class birds, get a sot ting of good eggs from some reliable breeder, and get tho benefit of his ex perience in mating. By uli means don’t start with a lot of cheap birds as they are dear at any prlee, and you will regret It in a short time.— R. H. Plant, Jr., In The Industrious Hen. THE SAVING OF HAY FROM COWPEA VINES There is Skill In Doing It Properly) But it is Easy to Learn. I have been fighting the bnttle for the cow pea* for so many years that I am glad to welcome an efficient help-] er In Mr. French. But whut a change I tin re has been in this respect! Twen ty years ago hardly nny one though of a field of peas for hay, but rested satisfied with some sown among the com. and the peas gathered and sold for 50 to 75 cents per bushel. A friend recently wrote to me: "When you began to write and talk cowpeas 1 could buy ail the peas I wanted for 50 cents a bushel and could buy land for any old price. Now peas are worth anywhere from $2.00 up, and land has boomed in prlee, and it is all your fault." Well, it Is a good thing for n man to have been nstrumental In doing some little good o hit fellows, and I have no reason o regret, the prlee of peas or the In creased value of the land in ids county I am glad to see, too, that Mr French curoH pea hay without the ussy |> -...ileos that ho many ad ipt. vd'l S'* •rev, frames, nor (folds and all irrls f. contrivances o loso the paves •<\ make poorer hay. 1 have f, nn It d to show tha t there Ih no liav more easily cured than peavine hay if you will only li t it euro, and not go to monkeying with all sorts cf useless and expensive contrivances to spoil It. The man who piles his nay on scaffolds or any sort of frame may cure It dry, but lie will lose the best part of it, the leaves, in hand ling It. Get the hay under cover as soon as It Is thoroughly wilted, but still limp, and it will cure If you let it alone, and you will have fine, sweet hay Instead of tho dry sticks that one comiTicnly sees. By using a tedder after the mower to toss the bay up lightly and hasten the wilting. I have always been able to rake Into windrows ln the afternoon all that was cut In the forenoon, and by turn- ‘ng the windrows the next morning could put it into cocks that after.ioon .f necessary, or leave It to finish in the windrow, if the weather was oot threatening, and the next dav into the barn with it before the leaves get crisp.—Progressive Farmer. ♦ ♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦ l Having sold one of the ♦ three Registered Jersey « ♦ Y earlings advertised last ♦ ♦ week in this space, we * ♦ are still offering the other 4 two. » P.
