AT
THE QUAIL'S SUCCESSOR IN AMERICA.
BREEDING MONGOLIAN PHEASANTS,
HOW IT IS DONE.
The pheasant of the Mongolian kind
will In a few snort years succeed the
quail as the popular American Rome
bird. The pheasant ha not only its
toothsome qualities to recommend it,
but its beauty, in waving plumage of
ravishing bnes, and therefore will
prove a prize that every sportsman
will endeavor to secure when the sea
on is once open for its slaughter. It
has unduly attracted the attention of
onr sporting gentlemen for many years
in consequence of its successful in
troduction on the racifio Hlopo, and
now many Eastern States are introduc
ing the Mongolian bird into their
domains. In Ohio alone over 200
iril were liberated this year, and in
aeverat Southern and Eastern States
the bird has been introduced for
breeding purposes.
The male bird has the cheeks caked
and the bightest scarlet, minutely
specked with black; the crown of the
bead bronze green; on each side of
the occiput a tuft of dark golden green
feathers capable of being erected at
pleasure, and very conspicuous in the
pairing season; upper part of the neok
dark green, glossed with purple and
violet blue; lower part of the neck,
breast and flanks deep reddish orauge,
showing in some positions beautiful
reflections of light purple; each feath
er bordered and terminated with pansy
pnrple; oenter of the belly and thighs
.blackish brown; center of the back
and scapular feathers black or brownish
black, surrounded with a yellowish
-white band and borderod with deep
reddish orange; lower part of the back
aud- upper tail covert green, inter
rainged with brownish orange and
purplish red; tail feathers brown
crossed by bands of black and fringed
with reddish brown; bill pale yellow;
legs and toes grayish black. The
female has cheeks covered with small
closely ant feathers, and the whole of
the plnmage yellowish brown, mingled
with different shades of gray, brown
ud bleak.
In a recent artiole in Beureation, a
porting magazine, O. M. Miller, of
Eugene, Oregon, tells of the Mongolian
pheasant whioh , was introduced into
that Btate about twenty years ago
from China and whioh baa attracted
the attention of hunters throughout
the United States. - Mr. Miller says
of this interesting bird:
"It waa introduced into Oregon by
3 itdge O. N. Darning and has multi
plied until, in the prairie sections of
Western Oregon, it outnumbers any
other game bird. The reason of the
treat in or ease probably lies in thefaot
iltat it hatahes two broods, of aixteen
to twenty, each season. When the
vicis axe about three weeks old the
I i tuns the family over to the ear
f!(' eook, she laying again. The
' r t a I "?rTon, in any sense of
. I t r.'"'j ce in, and
I
AND 5
forsaking all others cleaves unto her.'
Hence, to breed these birds success
fully it is essential that a cock be'pro
viiteoV for each hen.
"The Mongolian pheasant is a
prairie bird and is seldom found in or
about the timber. He likes the tall
orras. ferns, wheat stubbles and low
bushes, snob as the wild rose and the
buekbrnsli. After the young birds
reach full growth they do not congre
gate in large flocks, ns do the prairie
chickens, but are found alone, in
pairs, or iu'small flocks of five or six.
Tlier feed on grain, insects and green
vegetables, such as red clover, cab
bage, etc. These birds are great
favorites with sportsmen. Ihe mag
nillcent rtlnmnne of the cock almost
rivals that of the peafowl in beauty.
His prevailing colors are gold and
bronze, with touches of black. He
also bus a clear white ring about the
neck. The bead and upper half of
the neck have a bluish green of change
able shade, similar to that of the mal
lard duck
"The pheasant gives oat a stronger
scent than the blue grouse or the
prairie chicken, and lies better to the
dog. During the open season, Sep
tember 1st to December 1st, an hour's
drive in any direction from Eugene will
bring one into the shooting grounds.
The law limits a shooter to twenty birds
eaoh day,' but this number is often
killed in a few hours.
"With suitable inclosnre and a rea
sonable amount of patience these birds
can be successfully propagated any
where if the olimute be not too severe.
They cauuot be tamed or domestica
ted. After months of captivity they
are as wild as when first taken. They
ate 'game' first, lant and all the time.
"The flesh of the Mongolian pheas
ant is almost as white as that of the
domestic ohiaken and has a prononnoed
'gamey' flavor, innuh appreciated by
all lovers of wild meat."
Following are instructions, given by
writer in the Ht. Louis Star, for
propagating pheasauts:
A box shonld .first be constructed.
The rnnway, which ia covered with
wire netting, ia detachable from the
box at the eud, wherein the hen is set,
and where the hen and yonng birds
are protected from storm and cold.
Both the runway and the box are
placed on the ground.
To construct a nest take square
pieoe of aod about the size of the box
and in the centre out out a round
apaoe about the size of common hen's
nest.
Very little dry leaves or chaff shonld
be placed in the bottom of the nest.
Disinfeot the hen with inseet pow
der before placing her upon the nest.
The ben should be placed npon the
nest with some common eggs for at
least two days before plaoivc the
rAtesaut eg on'ir her. 1Uf ia
m-A-in - jam- .v k , -t hi i ii mi i i
ilone to test her staying qualities.
The eggs should then be placed under
the hen at night time, after removing
the hens' eggs.
Food ana water should be placed in
the rnnway so the beu can subsist
during incubation. I
The eiros should be examined every
day, and for this pnrpose the 'id or
roof or the box should be lifted wane
the ben is nut in the runway, so that
none become broken or soiled. Huould
any of the eggs become soiled from
broken eggs or otherwise, they should
be cleansed by taking a rag wet with
tepid water and wiping them, but do
not place the eggs in water.
It takes from twenty-two to twenty
four days for the eggs to hatch.
After the eggs have been nnder the
hen twenty days, they shonld be
sprinkled with lukewarm water twice
a day. This is necessary in order to
aid the young birds to leave the shell.
The runway and box shonld tit close
to the ground to prevent the young
birds from leaving, as they will surely
leave the hen as soon as they are ont
of the shell, unless this precaution is
heeded. The hen and young birds
should be kept closely in the box for
twenty-four hours after they are
hatched, and should not be allowed to
have either food or drink. At the end
of twenty-four hours both ben and
young birds may he let ont into the
runway. Give Uo hen all the eorn
she will eat. lis will keep her from
eating the foot .i' her young.
The food f ,: the young birds foi
the first week should be of custard,
made of milk and eggs, and should be
given fresh at least five timet a day.
Care should be taken not to feed too
muoh at a time, so as to keep the coop
clean, for if the place beoomes foul it
will tend to breed disease, and the
yonng birds may die from diarrhea.
The food for the young birds for
the second week should consist of
custard and milk curd. The custard
should he given three times a day.
and milk turd, whioh Bhould be mixed
with equal jwts of ground hemp and
canary seed, should be given twice a
day. A oommon coffee mill will an
swer the purpose for grinding the
seeds.
Some young lettnee and yonng onion
tops, chopped fine, ahonld be added
to both the custard and milk enrd.
The young birds should be given
plenty of green food by placing lettuoe
or young olover in the coops.
An Ancient Toll Abolished.
Windsor bridge across the Thames
has just been freed from its two-penny
toll through the greed of the corpora
tion. This had an undoubted right to
collect tolls from prescription as they
bad been taken since the reign of
Henry VI. It asked Parliament in
1734, and again in 1819, for power to
charge additional tolls, and obtained
it for a limited number of years. The
privilege expired about ten years ago,

Do not let the cows! shrink too ninth

Fro ten Combs.
i When the comb beoomes frozen or
frosted there will be tin end to the hen

beats, which may require one or two
months. Combs usually become frozen
t night, when the birds are on the
roosts, and it happens more frequently
when there is a small flow of air from
a crack or nail-hole than when the
birds are exposed to a large volume
of air. The prevention is to provide
warm houses at night and wind-breaks
of some kind during the day. Shonld

Quality of Corn Fodder.
' There is much difference in original
character of corn fodder as well as in
that made in curing. Only that which
has matured far enough to tassel
should be put lip for winter feed, and
It it has been planted thinly enough to
furnish some nubbins not only the
grain will help, but the quality of the
italk will be improved. Farmers have
often noticed that tho husked stalks
were eaten by cows in preference to
(he thin, watery and tasteless stalks
pf corn sown for fodder. The cow
Knows what is best for her. Mo eorn
For fodder should ever be sown. It
Should be drilled, and will be all the
better if drilled not so closely as to
prevent all earing. At its best fodder
eorn is full of water when harvested,
tnd unless the farmer is willing to do
t good deal of lifting for nothing he
ihould make the fodder as nutritious
as it ran be grown.
Feeding Fowls In Winter.
One of the reasons why hens do not
'ay in cold weather is because they
then get their food with too little ex
eroiBe. During the summer the fowls
are obliged mostly to care for them
selves. They get a great variety of
food, eating slowly and taking much
exercise while they are filling up. In
the winter they have only one or two
kinds of food, usually grain, and this
is put in a mass before them so they
can fill themselves at once. Then the
fowls stand idly by while the food di
gests. This would be just what is
wanted if the fowls were to be fattened.
In fact, the hens thus fed do fatten
and thus become unfit to lay. If any
eggs are formed they are apt to be with
thin shells, the result of fattening and
lack of exercise. Give the hdns only
small grain, oats or wheat, or better
still, a mixture of both. Oats only are
not heavy enough food for fowls in
cold weather. The chaff of oats fills
their crops so that they cannot get
enough nutrition. Then it this grain
is buried in a mass of cut straw, and
the hens are obliged to scratch for a
living, as they do in summer, instead
of being moping and dull, their lively
prating will bo heard nil through the
day, their combs will bocome red, aud
if kept warmly enough they will lay
as regularly as they did in the sum
mer season. Boston Cultivator.
Meal nnd Skim Milk.
The Iowa station has been making
experiments in adding different kinds
of meal to skim milk in fattening
calves and have apparently had ex
cellent success. The meals used were
oil meal with a oost of 2.8 oents per
pound of growth; another oatmeal
costing 2.1, and with cornmeal and
ten per cent, flaxseed costing 2.2 per
pound of growth. They do not seem
to have tried flaxtueal alone. From
the account I have in the Bural New
Yorker, no statement is made of the
age at which the cftlves are put on the
akiih milk and meal. This is a vital
Jioint in counting the oost, and espec
ally in adapting the yonng calf to the
new feed.
If meal of any kind is fed to the calf
before it is a month old, great care
must be taken to see that it does not
npset the young thing's stomach and
bring on scours. Pnre flaxseod is the
only one of the standard meals tbat
the authorities have been willing to
recommend for the right young calf.
After they are two months old and are
in good, thrifty condition, other meals
may be added, but the question of
cost in raising a calf depends prin
cipally upon bow much full milk it
bas drunk.
For this reason the prime point is
how to set the young thing off of full
milk and well started on skim milk and
meal. In this article from the Rural
great stress is laid npon the virtue of
oatmeal, and the Bural goos so far as
to recommend it for raising dairy
calves. With ordinary oatmeal, with
the hulls included, 1 found it very
irritating to yonng calves. There is
too muoh starch and too little oil in it.
What we want is something to take
the place of the butter fat removed
from the milk, and so tar as 1 can see,
flaxseed meal is the best substitute
This meets the theoretical require
luents, and has proved the best in
practice acoording to the testimony of
those who appear to be the best able
to settle the question. I fear there is
a-waut of careful data in the Iowa ex
periments. Home and Farm.
