jieorgflan 9 s Poultry Page Laying Strain Is Essential to ' Success A familiar question in poultry cir cles is: "Do fowls pay?” says a writer in American Poultryman. As a mat ter of fact, similar questions might be asked with regard to other professions and trades, and w'e should always find some dissatisfied person in every busi ness. < When poultry farming is taken up as living, great patience, strength and iterprlse must be put into the con cern. Many people like poultry, and are always admiring them when seen at their best, but when it comes to managing them and knowing how to make the most profit out of their birds, .such hen lovers are utterly at sea. However, one of the many items hieh go to make poultry profitable is to build up a laying strain. It is not too early to pick out the birds which ■ ill make up the breeding pen next season. The best layers must only be selectd, and a great aid to securing such birds is to use the trap nest, as this device soon weeds out the work ers from the drones. Easy To Pick Good Lsysrs. Good layers can also be selected by outward signs, and it is wise to look for them by this method also. The reg ular layer wll always be on the move, early and late, searching for insect life and other tit-bits. Its comb, face, and lobes will be very red, and its eyes will have that clear sparkle which denotes that birds are in the pink of condition. The feathers will also be very bright and glossy and not ruffled, and if the bird ’be handled the flesh will be hard and firm, possessing not an ounce of superfluous fat. When we come to the drones, what do we find? These specimens are al ways lazying about, always last out in the morning, and in flrst at night, yet ready at any time to consume as much >ft food as would extend their crop to an abnormal degree. They never go about over the stubble in search of in sect life, and always seem lifeless. They lack that sparkle in the eye. their combs and lobes are anything but red, and their feathers are dull and ruffled. When handled they are found to have flabby flesh and layer after layer of Beware the Drones. Such specimens as these should never constitute the breeding pen, but rather placed in the pot. The male bird should be a typical sized bird of correct shape, and should be about two years old if young pul ’."ts are to be mated with him. Again, those specimens that lay an egg of nor mal size regular should also be taken notice of; but, of course, the eggs must not be of abnormal uize, as such birds are not always best to use tn the breed ing pen. If birds are selected year after year possessing good qualities such as we have named, then a laying strain can -non be got together, provided close in breeding is carefully guarded against. If only poultry keepers could see the ■Uue of making up a laying strain of their own, by selecting the best indf duals each year, then we are sure we mould hear less complaints about the rrcity of eggs. If. however, haphaz- • d in-breeding is carried on year after ■ ar and fresh stock is never intro duced, then one can only expect a bad result, and in the end absolute failure. If the best layers are picked out of the birds at the present time, and placed in pens of their own while the ’ asters are cleared out of the way. then • hen the time comes around for mat ing we shall be able to mate them up vith some amount of satisfaction, and knowing at the same time that a good Percentage of chicks will be hatched and reared of tip-top quality, and not uose measly looking, half-feathered oug-. els which one too often sees walk ing about the farm yard. KEEP GOOD CHICKENS. 1 he farmers who are careless regarding be- kinds of fowls to keep, pay well for ’heir indifference. They may content themselves with the belief that "one fowl !s as good as another,” but they are gov erned by old customs and usages Instead t experience. Compared with common : 'Wls, the pure breeds are more useful; ’hey lay more eggs: some varieties come o maturity sooner; they are far more Het generally; at maturity the cockerels ■ake line birds, and the pullets good win ter layers. Flocks of common kinds noticed on some farms cause loss to their •.ners and are a drawback to any farm ■n these days of progress and improve ment. It costs but little to begin with uure breeds, and in one year the farmer ■an have a handsome flock of nice, thrifty, useful breeders that will give sat isfaction and pay liberally for their keep ing. . A FIELD FOR WOMEN. There is no field open to women today ■at is less crowded than the poultry • Id; none that offers as good returns for he's labor; none that affords so much freedom when taken as a vocation, and ne that makes one so nearly independ ent of others. Some of our best planned ultry farms, as well as our best paying : es. are the outgrowth of woman's skill und Ingenuity In planning and her finan- >1 ability In conducting the enterprise ■lost women show a qualification for neatness about poultry, of which men are occasionally void, and as cleanliness is an portant factor, she often outstrips our ■rds of creation” in results obtained. The care of poultry is productive of good ‘alth to women engaged therein, giving eni sufficient exercise in the open air, ■■■;<! just enough care and responsibility • make their work interesting and to ke them feel their Importance. The ■ld for woman is almost unlimited, and pays her better profits than she can st rutHy expect from most "ther bust- | ventures. Plenty of Good Food For Chickens—But There has been many a good laying hen or pullet sent to her last resting place long before her time. Stimulants have been the cause of much loss along this line. Many farmers, villagers and poultry raisers in general seem predisposed to dope their hens. ** If there is nothing the matter with them they try to imagine that there is, or they fear there will be, and in order to prevent it they give them a course of Dr. Henpeck’s Condition Pow ders, guaranteed to cure any disease under the sun in horses, cattle, sheep, hogs, dogs and poultry. It will make hens lay whether they are ready for the work or not. If the hen were given her choice she would not eat the stuff, but she is given no alterna tive, for it it mixed right into her good feed so that it is eat or starve. There is no question but what many of these tonic medicines force laying for a time, but they soon wear out and the hen does too. out iuiu me nen does too. Her appetite fails; she becomes sluggish and in many cases jast simply goes down and out and can never be brought up to the laying point again. It is just as it is with the man who must take a tonic of some kind before every meal in order to digest it, as he thinks. The sooner we get rid of this dosing idea for our hens the more suc cessful we will be with them. We will get more eggs the year through, and we will have a much healthier flock of ehickens. Very few of the poultrymen who man age large flocks of chickens use tonics, medicines or laying com pounds. They have tested them out and found them worse than good for nothing. It ik the small poultry raiser that does all this experimenting. He thinks he can see a short cut to wealth or success and tries it out along various condiment routes. But one is about as useless as another, or rather one is about as harmful as the other. Let us cut them all out and depend upon real good clean, wholesome food-something LIVE POULTRY NOTES Don’t be discouraged or disgusted if every chick you hatched last spring does not turn out a perfect specimen of the breed, but rather be satisfied if one-third of the chicks hatched develop into really good specimens. Even the most careful matings of the best blood will throw a few more or less inferior specimens. Common sense is better in the poultry yard than knowledge gained from books. Valuable things may be learned from | books and papers, but knowledge must be sensibly applied in order to be effective. Every poultry breeder should study his business in order to be ready for the emergencies that are certain to arise sooner or later. There ought to be more ducks ?nd geese raised on the farms of this country. Water to swim in Is not so essential us many suppose, although either ducks or geese enjoy an occasional swim. There is good profit in a flock of geese, as they will pick up a good portion of their living on the farm If allowed to roam. The fellow who has a flock of early hatched pullets will reap a harvest this winter. It is the early hatched pullet that fills the winter egg basket, and It is predicted that eggs are to reach almost unheard-of prices. Take good care of both the pullets and hens from now on and see that they go into winter quarters in the best possible condition. If the poultry house needs repairing, get busy at once and get the work done before the nights become cold. A little HELD AS FORGER, POLICE SAY HE HAS FOUR WIVES CHICAGO. Nov. 23. —Chicago police declare they expect to show that Wil liam S. Miller, held in the county jail as a forger, is a modern “Bluebeard."

Search among his correspondence re vealed the fact that his plan was to ad vertise for a wife. The police say they know a dozen women who answered his advertisements in matrimonial papers. DRINKS CORN LIQUOR AND CREOSOTE; ALMOST DIES MACON, GA., Nov. 23.—Oscar Thom as, a railroad employee, almost died as the result of a dose of com liquor and creosote which he took for an ailment upon the advice of a friend. Thomas was found on the street in a dazed con dition and was arrested on a charge of drunkenness. When he recovered suf ficiently to appear before the recorder he produced his bottle of corn liquor and creosote, and explained that he had drank a half pint of it.

Let us search for a variety at all times, which will be of infinitely more benefit than all the egg-producers in christendom. Change the feed. See that an abund ance of green food is furnished at all times, as it is one of the essentials to good health and an abundance of eggs. Examine all feedstuff in the shape of meal or grain to see that it ts not musty or spoiled in any manner. This can best be detected by the sense of smell. Musty feed will put chickens in the dumps quicker than one can imagine. It upsets the digestion. If one can do no better than to feed it, it can be greatly improved by heating it thoroughly in an oven, stirring fre quently. This will dispel much of the mould and correct the trouble to ;> great extent. Give all your chickens, both old and young, a feed of cooked vegetables occasionally. Beets, turnips, carrots, potatoes, etc., one, or all mixed, just as is most convenient. All kinds of small or cut vegetables. After they are thoroughly cooked, stir some bran or meal into the mess, feeding while warm, but not hot. Such messes are great appetizers and conditioners. It is the attention to the little tilings that tends to promote health in our flocks. crack in the walls of the poultry house is liable to cause all kinds of trouble, espe cially If it is hear the roosts. Fresh air is a good thing for the poultry when prop erly administered, but when sifted through cracks and knotholes it is a dan gerous proposition. Just as poets are born anil not made, are good layers bred up and not ted up. All the feeding' in the world will not in duce a naturally. i)on.-.prv<luetive Jhsp Io change her nature. It isn't in jier. For this reason a close record should be kept of the product, of each hen cm the place, and the non-productive ones sent to -the market or the pot. ■■■'-, i,. Artificial rearing becomes far easier when the brooder can be located put of doors, in some sheltered spot. The outer section of the brooder, in which healthy chicks are supposed to pass most of their time, should be well littered, and the chicks should have access to plenty of sand. A little millet seed scattered in the litter will keep them busy. Have at tached to the brooders little runs made of wire netting. The chicks should be al lowed the use of the runs during the warm part of the day. We can generally tell by the appearance of the chicks whether they are too warm or too cold. Keep the chicks busily employed and there is not much danger of not agreeing with them. On the farm I find it is a good idea to distribute the coops over the fields near the house, at some distance apart. Horses and Carriages COVERED PHAETON for sale cheap; in good condition.
