I am inclosing copy of a letter 1 have
written Frank lee Miles, which u-‘
presses my views concerning o sow
changes in the Carneaux standard: {
“] will regret 10 see the Dixie Pigeon
'Awntm have one standard and the
Internstional Carneaux Club have m'
different. Why can't they agree on one
? The u:aa wiich the Dizie Pigeon
Asscciation sdopted for its standard is
not rounded out enough in ihe breast.
His carriage is good and neck fine, huh‘
Ine aunll:’ correctly, but he is too tall
for depth body.
The following was sent Mr. Miles:
“1 write you as president of the In
ternational Carneaux Club, understand
ing that there are contemplated ehanfu
to be made at your coming meeting
in the standard for Red Carneaux Pig

The Collie and the Poultryman,
From time past remembrance men
have heen lovers® of the dog, but it is
on'y within recent years that the beau
tifu! and intelligent collie has come
to his own, and in the present day the
high and the low, the rich and the
poor, must have a collie. And there
are ms=y good reasons for this, but
more -vw‘:lly the two reasons, viz:
that :ne collle is not only one of the

most beautiful, but at the same time
one of the most intelligent of all the
dog family. The man of business, the
farmer, the lady of millions, the wo
man tired of life, the mother with
child, the child itself, wants a collle—
and why? Because the collie is not
only a companion that understands,
or seems to understand, all that you
\say, but he is a friend, a companion
and a lover, all in one; moreover, he
is faithful and to be trusted. :
But this Qs not what 1 started to
say. 1 had In mind the usefulness of
the collie to the Foultr,vman. Every
poultryman who Is keeping poultry
‘not only because he likes poultry, but
‘as a business, knows how very im
portant it is to have a faithful watch
‘dog, one that can be depended upon
;at all times. To such 1 would say:
What you need is a good collie—and
‘whyi’ Because you can train your
collie not only to be a watch%)g. but
\you can make a boon companien, but
'of him, a companion that will in most
cases be of greater comfort to you
than a human friend—and why? Be
cause once he is friend and companion,
you need never fear that any outside
‘inflqence will turn him against you. He
is your friend through thick and thin,
whether you have much for him to eat
or little, and though you may scold
him one moment, the next he'is will
\ing to take you as though you had
never been forced to scold him.
I believe the most perfect watchdog
that a poultryman can have is the Col
tie, but his usefulness does not end
there, as it is easily possible to train
h#m to do many different things, just
as the cattleman can readily train his
collie to take care of a drove of COWS,
lesvlnfi them in the care of his faith
ful collie, no matter where he himself
may be. }
However, in buwing a collie, please
bear in mind this one great and impor
tant fact: If you want a collie that is
, easy to train, that.is not stubborn and
wild, see to it that both the dam and
the stud are of the true, pure-blooded
type. If you s{)et a collie with mongrel
blood it will be almost impossible to
train him.—Dr. R. 8. Clymer.
The Superiority of the Bull Terrier.
The bull terrier is the gentleman of
the dog family. He knows how to con
duct himself under all circumstances;
he has a stylish manner, a graceful car
riage. One is not ashamed .to take k#m
for a walk along the street, for he has
an upright carriage, up on his toes
every minute, never eringing; he is full
of grit and determination, vyet obe
dient—a gentleman, not looking for
trouble, vet perfectly able and willing
to defend himself or those he loves.
Ready to defend the home, day or night,
vet of a peaceful disposition. Let the
baby pull his tail or slap him, see him
as he patiently gets up and walks awayl
and finds another place to finiah h}s‘
nap; yet if a stranger comes in and at-

which -t?l harm the children, and he
will attack it and if necessary fight

have an idea that the bu'l terrier as A

and nodmo snap or bite. 1 have owned
several, t never yet had one which
offered to bite any of my own family,
yet some of them would not allow &
stranger to even touch one of the chil
dren. Perbaps most people 'ownln.t "

A SuccessFul Pouitry Woman,
Mras. Leon J. Healy, In giving_ her
experience with poultry in The Btant‘
Poultry Journal, has the following to
Ay
“l ‘was born on a farm in the corn
belt and spent most of my life there:
in fact, all but the time that I attended
or taught school. It was my ambition
10 be & ‘school ma'am,’ so I stuck to it
‘untll | earned the dipioma and certifi
cate. Never was much of a hand to
“'tlvo up,’ and even now | hate like fury
to fail of accomplishing what 1 plan
o do.
| "I\'hlh 1 attended school I did quite
a lot of newspaper work: wrote up the
Cloeals and personals,’ funerals, wed
\dmp. ete,, and have done so ever since.
It's like & wheezy bad cold-—something
1 can't get rid of easily. |
- “When 1 wasn't in school I used to
Alke mu‘ well to get out to the hen
house or the chicken yard, but my moth
er didn't care to have me or any one
else except herself ‘puttering around’
[lh: chickens, and ! knew enough to
‘-uy away. She ‘didn’'t want anybods
to scare the life out of the settl
hens' 1 eame in pretty handy nmux
lwhon she had her sem*annual clean-up
to ‘gt the wheelbarrow and haul the
| ref to the ?rden for fertiiizer, to
scald the roosts by d:munr them ina t;:s
fron kettle of boiling Iyve-water, a
other odd jobs. So, you see, the ex
perience that 1 had in the chicken busi
ness before 1 sallled out to try for my
self wasw't very much; but I did get
this much thoroughly learned: ‘Look
out for mites,’ 'Knr the house clean,’
|'Pood the young poults onion tops.’ Yes,
and 1 almost forgot the ducks. ‘Get
them up every night during the l.ylnq
season or tvou will not get the .cf
and ‘Don’t let the young ones set to the
stream before they are full-feathered
because there are skunks, minks and
weasels who will get the lion’s share.’
“When I decided to take up domes
tie science instead of teaching—not as
an experiment, but as a lifetime occu
pation—l was presented with several
Idoun hens as a wedding present. Some
were grade Barred Rocks, some Brown
[heuhomn. and the rest were {,nlt hens.
I had always llked thoroughbreds and
had & great desire to own such a flock
myself, but as yet 1 did not have the
wherewithal, so I was mighty glad to
g:t the eggs from my hens, and had to
satisfied with ‘any old chickens.
And, O, how I did want to set some
hens. The ducks were laying -and so
were the hens, but all the neighbors
had hens setting, and if mine had not
been laying so well I wouldn’t have been
sure they were not roosters. But they
finally went to setting and I managed
to get some ready to fry by the time
sweet potatoes were large enough to
cook.
“My little chickens had head lice and
a neighbor told me to use equal parts
of kerosene and lard and apply under
the hens' wlnr, and that in this way
the little shicks would get enough on
their heads to kill the lice. 1. con
cluded if that was a good way to keep
the lice off the little chicks I would
grease the setting hens, too. An ounce
of prevention would be worth a pound
of cure. It no doubt prevented the em
bryo chicks from getting any lice, but
it also rrevanted them from ‘etth}x
enough air to live; consequently they d
not hatch. It was about a pound of pre
vention.
“I also tried my hand at raising ducks
and was more successful with them.
But I had to round them uP before
every shower and at night drive them
home, and to sum up my first year's
work, it wasn’'t much of a success. But
1 learned many things and learned, too,
that some of the 'g:u hands’ in the
chicken business did not always get
| perfect results.

1914; second, 1915, 23 In Class. Bred
by C. J. Lane.
“For the next two or three years 1
had better luck, but not yet very sat
isfactory results. ‘I missed the check
which always came at the end of the
month when 1 was teaching and felt
that I was sort of a failure, so I just
sat down and looked myself over and
came to this conclusion; ‘You have
lost all your backbone—if you would
sit down and study the nature of chick
ens just as you studied your geography,
history, Latin, geometry and the rest,
you might expect some results. Your
gmens do not lay in winter-—they do not
set when they ought to,” etc. After
finding a lot of fault with the hens
I concluded to read up on the subject
of poultry keeping. I looked up the
poultry departments in all the farm
papers, found some pamphlets, sent for
some government bulletins and went
to work accordingly. If what I réad
seem@d reasonable I tried it out if

and saved it for future use. I bought

Cuba’'s sugar crop this vear is ex t
to exceed 1915 production by w;%
tons. The domestic sugar increase
100,000 tons ovet last year's record
figures
Liscussing the outlook the A. H. Lam-.

“Present indications are that the
scarcity of spot supplies of cane sugar in
the United States market will continue
to be a factor until the second half of
Junuary. By the end of January, Cuba
shoud be %ruducmf sugar in sufficlent
volume to bring relief to the situation,
However, there Is no!hln*mto indicate
'any substantial decline m present
\pn?fl. The extent of the advance In
prises, during the latter part of 19164
‘will depend upon the out-turn of the
Sugar rros of Java, Mauritius, Australia,
FiJi Islands, Argentina, and the domes
tic beet crop; in other words, on they
countries which market during the see
ond half of the year, It seems probable
these countries will produce more than
the present season, as with the exception
of the domestic beet crop they in every ,
instance made short crops.”
