A New and Powerful Story of MORMON LIFE,

By JOAQUIN MILLER.
Ege in Early Winter and ERK-Produclnrx
Fowls.
There are certain methods lo conform to
by all poultry fanciers thai, If followed out,
prove remunerative, without waiting lime
or patience that ls,thc proper care of poul
try in winter to makehim profitable as wri
aa productive. Eggs at Ibis time of the
year, fresh, aro as profitable as any farm
product, if not more so. With very Utile
trouble bens can be mads to produce them
In paving quantities. In the first place
poultry should have a good, warm house
one that is roomy and comfortable, Ihey
should not be overfed, but lha food which
Is given them should be non-fat producing,
Care ia the Ursi essential to succost. White
eggs are worth in the market from thirty-
fivo tn forty cents 8 dozen it pays to look
after things.
Our plan, which has proved successful,
when we were breeding lor the product of
fowls as well as for tho best breeds.has ben
to look well after tbo welfare of our birds,
and gat as early winter producers of eggs ss
possible. Our feed has been oats browned,
mush or cooked Indian meal, buckwheat,
wheat ecrcenings.hul very little whole corn.
and refuse frbm the table. Plenty of fresh
water was given daily, with no. it ashes for a
dust bath. Hones were thrown in th
kitchen stove aud burned until they were
brittle.then taken out of thefiicand ground
and given them weekly. Wo have occas
ionally bought ut our butchers a pluck or
other refuso meat aud hung it up in the
hennery just in reach, so the fowls could fly
up and peck at it. In this way they have
proved with us successful egs producers.
Wn have kept nil cockerels away from the
hens until late in February, nnd thereby
avoided their sitting propensities.
The breeds treated in Hi is manner have
been all of the Asiatic breeds. White and
Grny Dorkings, Silver Spangled ruUnds
and White Leehorns. Wehavjbrod from
these varieties of lowls for the past Ihlrly
r forty years and luund no trouhle in keep
ing fresh eerjs all winter long, as well as
having early chickens.
The Polish class nf fowls have proved
good egg producers, but their eggs are small
and not at all on n par witli those ot the
Leghorns. The Asiatic breeds proved.with
us, early egg produeers.but their perslslence
as incubators destroys, In our opinion, their
usefulness as early egg getters. As a tablo
bird Ihey are hard lo beat as to size. Of
course, the flesh iscoarser grained than that
of other varieties. If they were crossed with
the Dorking variety they would prove a
much better table bird, as far as buttery np
pejrauco oT their flesh is concerned, and it
would give them a much more plump ap
pearance in our markets.
All prize fowls should be kept ceparale
lr mi the cockerels until at lojst ns lute as
tho Ulh of February. After being mated
or nia'.i'hcd In the pens, all eggs gathered
lor incubating purposes should bo kept lu a
warm place, or in a place where they will
not be liable tn become chilled. Early biids
for the market are profitable as much so
as winter eggs. If you have a good, warm
cellar lo set Ihe hen in we think It prefer
able to the hennery. Tho hens will be less
liable to leave their nccts for fond,aud their
eggs n il! not become chilled nnd the germ
killed. We havo occasionally sprinkled
the eggs of early silling liens with hike.
warm water, then turned them aud nut the
lieu on them again. We neyer have experi
enced liny bail icsults from this manner of
treating our fowls, and huve no hesituncv
in roci'inmendiug it lo others Now is the
time for a trial. Wu. M. Lkwh, in Tat
Poultry Monthly.
The Origin of tho Potato
Thopotuto, originally a Smith American
plant, was introduced to Virginia liy Sir
John Harvey in IG2U. though it wus un
known in some counties of England 150
years later. If Pennsylvania potatoes are
mentioned very soon alter tho advent ol

told in 1 1,000 Lushels grown on onesixteen-

Influence of tho Weather on Crops.
The weullier rxerls giral influence upon
crops, and each crop n quires a diilert-nt
climate comlition tor its ierlecl devt-li-ment.
An excess of water In thu soil pre
vents 6uch development uud ruuses a loss
ot nitrates and other soluble plant foods in
the drainago water. Deeply rooted crop-j,
sueh as wheat, red clover and mangles, are
best fitted to resist drouth while shallow
roited crops, as grass and lurolps(ara those
which sutler most from it.
In a damp, cold summer the harvest Is
always late, growth huving taken place
slowly in the deficiency oflight and heat;
the season is often too short fur maturing
crops.
A knowledge ol the climate best suited to
each is ot great service to the cultivator in
selecting crops fur any special location.
Thus, wheat requires but and dry weather
for its ripening ienod, while oats will ripen
in a damp atmosphere. Mangels require
heut, aud will resist the drought, while
turuijw succeed best in a cool, moist air.
The character ol the winter has mora or
less influence on that of the following era
son. The soil loses ultrates to a consider.
able extent by drainage during a wet, open
winter. Itoot development is prevented ly
excessive moisture. The wheat crop Is
usually in a backward condition afteru wet
winter.
In adverse seseons a good, rich soil is the
farmer's ouly hope. With plenty of plant
food to induce a great amount if vitality in
the plants, cropj will olten succeed in pro
ducing advantageous yields when those on
poor soils fill to mature. Poor soils yield
tlielr best results in seasons of slow, but
ciutinuous growth, when the crop has
long lima in which to collect Ihe scanty
supply of food they contain. In hot sea
sons, with an early harvest, only soils wall
supplied with plant food ran produce Jul'
