Brown, Decatur, ; Ga. i Practical Notes Save all the immature heads of cab bage for the poultry' next winter, when place for future use. They are too val uable to waste. other green food Is scarce. Also save any other waste vegetables. They will all come in handy when the ground !• covered with snow and the chickens are confined in their houses. Commence now to train the birds in tended for the exhibition pens at next winter's shows. Treat them in such a way that they will be tame and tracta ble, and a little later handle them, every few days, teachin, them to pose. Prop er training goes a long way toward winning the blue ribbons. The farmer who says "hens are a nuisance” is the one who gives them j no attention except when taking a nice I bunch to market. The check he gets I for* them is 75 per cent clear profit i though he may not realize it. There U more profit in a load of poultry than In a load of any other product of the ’ farm. As usual at about this time of year, there is a reported shortage of the turkey crop of the country, and it is . predicted that the Thanksgiving turkey I will be a very scarce commodity. This report is circulated annually, but some. ! how we always notice that when the time comes the turkeys arrive from r somewhere. Eervybody can not succeed with poul try, any more than everybody can suc ceed in <jjher vocations. Study the ben and always keep both eyes open. Fool I but very little with scrub and sick hens. Deal honestly, advertise judiciously and : after becoming well acquainted with ■ one's self, then study the market con- 1 ditlons. Make hens profitable. This may mean a god deal, but without It no one can hope to succeed. If new in the business, don't fall to ask questions, feed liberally.
