Utilizing Straw. :
Owing to its abundance straw i
added to barnyard manure, but it can
be made more serviceable if made fine
with the feed cutter before being
used. While straw may soon rot after
being mixed with manure, yet in a
fine condition it is a much better ab-
sorbent and can be forked into the
manure with advantage. When load-
ing and spreading manure there is a
saving of labor when handling that
which is fine, and the manure will be
more valuable because the loss of am-
monia will be arrested by the use of
suitable absorbent materials.—Epito-

Ilow to Tell a Fresh Egg.
It is easily possible to tell the dif-
ference between a fresh egg and a
cold storage egg without breaking
the shell, and dealers in the District
of Columbia who sell stored eggs for
“strictly fresh” ones may be prose-
cuted and convicted, according to
statements to-day of Dr. Harvey W.
Wiley, the Government's chief chem-
ist, at the “high cost of living’ hear-
ing being conducted by a House sub-
committee.
Dr. Wiley had a large number of
fresh eggs and some of the cold stor-
age variety. Dropping them into a
large vessel of water containing ten
per cent. salt solution, the fresh eggs
immediately sank to the bottom and
the refrigerated ones fioated on the
surface. When asked how he knew
the eggs were fresh, Dr. Wiley re-
plied that one of his inspectors saw
the hens lay them yesterday.
Feeding Lambs.
One of the most inviting and profit-
able of the animal industries now is
the feeding of lambs for the city mar-
kets. A few feeders are undertaking
this line of feeding with great suec-
cess. No other young animal makes
so large and profitable a growth as
the lamb, no other young animal be-
‘'2ins to feed profitably so early as the
Lambs are very little
all they need is a
rail or board pen open at the bottom
sufficiently for them to crawl under;
set this pen in the pasture. They
should be fed meal in a V-shaped
trough. The ewes cannot enter but
will try to and thus encourage the
lambs to go in; they will soon learn
to eat, and the appetite will increase
rapidly with their growth. As newly
weaned lambs as a general
bring the highest price in the market,
this method of disposing of the lambs
is to be encouragetl.—A Reader, in
the Indiana Farmer.

Alfalfa Will Grow Everywhere.
While experts have been declaring
that alfalfa would only grow in cer-
tain soils and in certain climates it
has proven adaptability to nearly all
climates and almost all soils. It pro-
duces with a rainfall as scant as four-
teen inches, and in the Gulf States
flourishes with sixty-five inches. It
gives crops at an elevation of 8000
feet above gea level, and in southern
California it grows below sea level to
a height of six feet or over, with nine
cuttings a year, aggregating ten to
twelve tons. An authenticated pho-
tograph in possession of the writer
shows a wonderful alfalfa plant
raised in the (irrigated) desert of
southern California, sixty feet below
sea level, that measured considerably
more than ten feet in height. Satis-
factory crops are raised, but on lim-
ited areas as ‘yet, in Vermont and
Florida. New York has grown it for
over one hundred years in her clay
and gravel; Nebraska grows it in her
western sand hills without plowing,
as does Nevada on, her sage-brush
desert. The depleted cotton soils of
Alabama and rich corn lands of Illi-
nois and Missouri each respond gen-
erously with profitable yields to the
enterprising farmer, while its accum-
ulated nitrogen and the sub-soiling it
effects are making the rich land more
valuable and giving back to the crop-
worn the priceless elements of:which
it has been in successive generations
despoiled by a conscienceless hus-
bandry.—From Coburn's ‘The Book
of Alfalfa.”

Farm Notes.
A well fowl needs no medicine.
Don’t doctor and dope unnecessarily.
The breeder is a bigger factor than
the breed in modern poultry culture.
The very best stock will not be long
in degenerating if not properly fed
and cared for. :
Sweet, apples that are not salable
are greatly relished and an excellent
feed for the fowls.
Scald out the drinking vessels
every few weeks; it kills germs and
prevents diseases from starting.
The poultry house is more con-
venient, more easily cleaned and more
easily kept cleaned if everything in it
is readily movable. ' pe
Regularity in feeding and other
general management is important
with poultry, and especially don’t for-
get to be regular in cleaning up.

The best medicine for any animal
or fowl is preventive; hence their
food and general surroundings should |
be such as to promote health.
It is disputed as to whether to feed
soft food in the morning or evening,
but the general tendency now seems |
to favor morning feeding of mashes.
One of the best feeds for poultry
is green bone. It stimulates health
and egg-production, and can be se-
cured cheaply at any meat market.
Don’t neglect it!
If your chicken house roof leaks,
fix it or get out of the poultry busi-
ness. Chickens are as well off out-
doors as in a house that permits
drafts and dampness.
A few tobacco leaves crushed in
the bottom of each nest will be a
great help in exterminating vermin
both in the nest and on the bodies of
the hens which visit the nest.
It is rank nonsense to allow the
droppings to lie in the house week in
and week out, engendering disease
and breeding lice; and then the poul-
tryman wonders why his hens don’t
lay.
Look out for a supply of grit dur-
ing the winter months. It is scarce
then hecause the ground is frozen,
but it is of more vital importance
than in the summer. Hens must have
teeth.
The man who keeps on year after
year breeding the best in his chosen
variety, regardless of the public fancy
for new breeds, will get good prices
for his birds oftener than he will miss
them. — From “Timely Poultry
Hints,” in the Epitomist.
McEwen’s Decision.
Not long ago Justice McEwen sat
on a cow case: that is, a case involv-
ing money due one man for boarding
the cow of another. The wrangle
was as to what the board was worth.
One attorney called three or four
liverymen and got their testimony on
the cost of boarding a horse. Of
course the opposing counsel objected
and declared such testimony to be in-
competent on the ground that the
cost of boarding a horse is not the
same as the cost of boarding a cow.
This the other attorney conceded,
but he explained that he was going
to follow up the testimony of the
liveryman with expert testimony to
show how much less, if any, it costs
to keep a cow than a horse, :
“Oh, if you are going to work on
that plan,” put in McEwen in judicial
tones, ‘you might as well start in
with elephants and work down to
cows by gradual stage:.”’—Cleveland

Price of Food.
A Calcutta correspondent writes:
Quite one of the most serious ques-
tions confronting India at the present
time is the ominous rise in the price
of food, quite apart from famine; and
also the rise in the cost of living. It
is difficult to ascertain the cause,
which is variously held to be the
shortage of crops, the extension of
jute cultivation at the expense of rice,
the currency operations of govern-
ment, and the extension of manufac-
tures and a rise in the ideal of living
among great masses of the people.—

A Poet's Club. :
To the long list of London clubs
there must now be added the Poet's

purpose of revivifying the neglected
art of verse making. Henry Simpson

Mrs. Walter Crane, Horace Wynd-

Lectures on Farming.
Columbia University has been
quick to recognize the general wave
of interest in agriculture, and is pro-
viding courses in scientific and eco-
nomic farming. It arranged for a
course of lectures on economic agri-
culture by prominent men, who can
speak with authority on various
phases of agriculture.

CONVINCING PROOF

What is the use of procrastinating in the face of such
