Neglect in the prune reanon why
rnmy people luivc wlint they call
'•poor luck" wiili f.>wln,
i The tear of lice it the beginning
of wiMlom in the hen hu-incs. The
; hreeiler who ruasleis thai difficulty
will lind other thing* eoinparalivel}
easy.
It in lean difficult than many HO|■ ;
poxe to know every fowl of :t ff.M'k h\
wight. Variety in form and f. alurcih
not confined to tin- human race.
The habit of f-edirig n fl.ck of
fowl,, a little each morning, not half
j enough to till their crops, and then o' ,
I giving no more until the tn xt day, if
a common practice and a chort-Mght- '
id one- No douieftic flock can be |
priilitahle if kept in a halft-tarved
condition. Comfort i the firat re- j
fpnsite.
When fowla are fofcifl to roont in
tree* or under ojien sheds in winter,
don't iiiakc any serious compluint it
dishonest ncighborssteal tlieui Death
puts them out of a great • lea I jf mis' '
ery. When forced to sleep in tins
. way at inglit it is a rational conclu
sion that their coin'ort and bappi
ness fiy ilay are not much studied. j
When fowls arc very wild it does !
not s|a ak well for the care au-1 kind- |
ness of the owner. There is gener
| ally g<Hxl reason for excessive fear
and shines* that doc* nttt .-ill jicrtaiii
lf the breed, lielter liaie ftiwls thst
"ill take corn frotn I*• Iwecn \our
leelii than have theep flash through s
window wlun you unex|tect.-flly enter
their premises. To chase them wiili j
• logs is not the w ay to gain their con
li'lt nee nor to deserve it.
\ar.cty in To.*! is w hat the poultri
ftwner should lsr in mind. Not all
corn, nor all fresh meat, nor ail of
anything (Is,- which it • xcellenl, but
> little of nearly everything b> turns
llisit a fowl like*. Corn may predoin
iliaie, hut corn wii| rum a fl-ck in

■ bout the Ist of Novemlar need not
Iff founleil on to be profitable through
the winter.
A mom lor fowls to roost in at
night, into which a man cannot gel,
is an i kci lit nl place in winch to
lined hen cholem. 1 owls can stand
considerable in the wnv of hud smell
and bail sir, but to rim-l month after
uionUi over a fermenting pile of their
own dropping* a fiMit deep or more is
pri ttv sure to bring about result* that
will lead the owner to say that "liens

DEII* TII.I.AOR AVJI DROIDHT.— 1
Last week three of the leading agri
cultural pa|ers uf the country dis- ;
cussed the value of deep tillage a* a
preventive of damage bv drought
No fact is better established than this
If ilie soil is stirred deeply bcforc
planling the roots will find a more
enduring supply ol moisture to carry
the ciop through a season of dry
weather. Opinions differ as to the
propriety of stirring the surface
when the air contains little moisture,
but it is not unreasonable to suppose
