There are ninny more old bows be

Belling off their big, heavy bows and
keeping young ones for coming breed

a good bunch of breeders. It Is a mis
take to sell too close, because of

Pure Hrctl Poultry.
To start with, pure bred poultry it
is no't necessary to Invest a small for
tune, as many believe. If you have
a mixed flock nnd do not wish to dis
pose of them at once nnd Btnrt with
pure bred poultry, but want to Im
prove the laying iiualltles of your
mixed .stock, got a pure bred cock
bird from some fancier who hns a
good laying strain. Mate him with
your mixed hens and the next genera

You can get a pure bred male bird
that Is not good enough In color per

' Separate Ilnosls.
When housing birds for winter it
should bo taken into consideration
that the young birds require a little
more attention than the old ones, and
that the eame conveniences do not
suit nil ages. Old Btock will get
along well on almost any kind of a
roost, but it Is not so with young
birds. Their bones are composed
mostly of animal matter and are eas
ily bent and thus easily deformed.
If a chick Is forced to sit all night
on a little, nnrrow pole it will cause
him to bend almost double In order
to remain there nnd be comfortable,
and ho will soon become crooked
backed, have leg weakness, or have a
crooked breast. Have separate roosts
for the young and old stock. The
young birds will choose the flat, wider
pieces of board, and the old stock
will naturally take the higher ones
and better results will follow.

Kqulp the I'niin. '
The scarcity of help on farms will
ultimately drive land owners to
greater economy nnd to a more gen
eral use of devices and conveniences
which lighten the work. It is sur
prising how many try to get along
by muscle power alone, never trying
out any other method, which might
save half their work. An old farmer
says that his neighbors called him
lazy when he first brought a bay
loader onto his farm, and when he
rigged up a cable and used a trip
hay fork to .unload his hay be had a
' good bunch of farmers around blm,
"Just to see how it worked." The
close figuring farmer counts all of
these labor savers Just that much of
his equipment, and it is only by us
ing them that he Is enabled to meet
present conditions. The walking
stirring plow and walking cultivators
are back numbers. Now the sulky
or gang plow Is used, and three big,
lusty horses will turn over three or
four acres a day. A manufacturer
has now gotten out a rotary harrow,
which Is attached to the plow, and
the land is turned and harrowed at
one operation. I believe that if any
man is Justified in borrowing money
it is when he invests It in up-to-date
tools and implements for more rapid
and better wwk on the Zarni. In

! Lambs Dying From Wool-nail.
- " 1 u v . tHHiwa uj lug y I U 1 11 II1IO
trouble, it is well to remember that
this may and does arise from two
separate causes.
Firstly, when grass Is scarce and
ewes are short cf milk, in the case of
twin lambs, it is usually the bigger
and stronger of the twins that dies
This may appear strange, but it is
easily explainable. When the milk is
short, the stronger lamb drives off
the weaker one from the dam, and
by its persistent tugging at the empty
udder for tht sustenance It falls to
obtain, It takes into its stomach por
tions of wool from about the udder of
its dam, which forms into a ball in
the stomach and causes death. In
' such cases the shepherd should lose
no time in going over the flock and
' cnttlng away the wool from the vicin
ity of the udders.
Secondly, when the ewes are af
fected with sheep ticks, the lambs by
the upstroke of the heads in seeking
for the teats dislodge the ticks and
these fall into the coats of the lambs.
i uk j are not accusionieo. to sucn
visitors and seek to rid themselves
by biting the ticks and In so doing
. take Into Chelr stomachs portions of
their own wool, death resulting.
Thus In post mortems to elucidate
causes of death It is necessary to note
whether the wool-ball is composed of
ewe or lamb wool, before effective
measures of precaution and preven
tion can be taken. V. R. Gilbert, in
The Epitomise
To Clonuse I'nniK
Many ponds, small lakes, streams
and brooks nnd even tho natural
basins which serve to catch the winter
rains to be utlllr.ed dining the ralu
less season for slock wnter frequently
become clogged with a vegetable
growth which renders tho water
nauseous In taste and repulsive In
smell. In almost every case these
conditions are produced by n small
plant whose origin Is unknown to the
farmer and the effect of which is
serious. To drain the water off will
not cause the destruction of the
growth, for as soon as the water Is
returned tho plants begin to grow
again: A simple way and an Inexpen
sive one, Is to draw a small bag filled
with sulphate of copper (blue vltrol),
back and forth through the water.
It the pond is small, or the growth Is
In a stream, tho sulphate can bo tied
to the end of n pole. If the pond
Is large the bag may be trolled be
hind a boat. It frequently occurs
thnt a viscid growth resembling moss
in strings appears In water tanks
and troughs at the wind mill or where
a stream falls from a spring. The
growth may be effectually killed by
using copper sulphnte as described.
Let It be borne in mind Hint copper
sulphate Is poison nnd Bhoiild be used
with care. A dollar's worth will clear
several acres of a pond and a penny's
worth a lank or water trough. Ice

A Study or I'liint Fond.
The principal foods of plnnta are
nitrogen, phosphoric acid mid potash,
and it Is those substances in the man
ure upon which plnuts principally
feed. When fertilizers are applied
the farmer gives his crops Identically
the same principal foods that he sup.
plies from barnyards, with the differ
ence that In the use of fertilizers he
knows Just how many pounds of ni
trogen (or ammonia), phosphoric acid
nnd potash he applies per ncr-, while
the proportions of these substances In
the manure nre unknown and much
depends upon the kinds of foods from
which the manure Is produced and
the manner it has been cared for.
Darnyard manure, while It pos
sesses Just what may be needed, con
tains some substnnces in greater pro
portion than of others. Thus clover
Is a plant that prefers lime in some
form and requires very littlo ammo
nia, while wheat does not require as
much lime as the clover. The barn
yard manure Is expected to furnish
both subBtancesto each crop, and yet
there might be a waste of ammonia
from the manure applied to the clo
ver. The custom has been to haul out
the "manure nnd spread It for corn,
with hopeful results and from the
same heap the farmers would sprend
the Bamo kind, of manure on the
ground prepared for wheat. All this
was proper enough In its way, for no
ono can deny tho fact thnt barnyard
manure possesses nearly all the re
quirements of plants of every kind
but why should there bo applied
thnt which would he wasted becauso
of not being put to proper use?
Improvement Is taking place in the
domain of agriculture, marching
along steadily and swiftly, cutting
down in Its path the follies of the
past and adding more knowledge and
experience to the farmers, and to
nothing has more thoughtful atten
tion been given than to the enrich
ment of the soil supplying plants
with the best available foods, accord
ing to their Individual requirements.

Taking Cure of the Harness.
"There Is nothing like leather."
But there is nothing like knowing
how to keep your leather goods in
fine condition, too. Leather Is com
posed of a mass of One tendrils, inti
mately interlocked and entwined.
When in good, pliable condition, each
tendril Is capable of much Btretching.'
It allowed to become dry and hard,
when the leather Is subjected to a
severe pull, tho tendrils break Instead
of stretching. But this does not
mean that leather boots or harness
should be kept soaked with oil or
dressing. Elbow grease applied In
quantity is better. "All dressings
should be applied sparingly," is the
sound advice of a big saddlery con
cern. Black oil should always be
used on black harness and not neats
foot oil, as the latter oil, it it is used,
will draw out the black dye and leave
the harness brown. The black har
ness fats now on the market make ex
cellent farm harness dressing. They
contain the "nourishment" necessary
for keeping the harness in good order.
But first, all dirt should be washed
off with lukewarm water and or
dinary soap. The black fat should
then be applied with a cloth, given
a short time to penetrate the leather,
and then rubbed dry with another
cloth. Some make the mistake of oil
ing without unbuckling the harness.
The parts that need nourishment the
most are under the buckles, where
the metal causes hardness and brittle
ness. It people would vary the boles
of the harness occasionally it would
last .much longer.
An objection to neatstoot oil is
that it inclines to wash off the bees
wax from the stitches, leaving the
bare thread, which then soon breaks.

BERNARD SHAW ON
MAN'S COWARDICE.
Characteristic Te'ilng Up cf Eng
llth Middle-Class Clerks by tht
Famous Irish Author.
"Of nil tho qualities of man I find
nothing so nstonlshlng' as his sheep
Ishness, docility and cowardice.
Whon these qunlltles are developed
to tholr outmost by clvlHzation and
poverty In the middle class you get
the clerk. I have been a clerk on
a stool In a very genteel office my
self, and probnbly I would have been
there yet If I had not broken loose
In dedance of nil prudence and be
come a professional man."
That is part of an interesting
artlclo by George Bernnrd Shaw,
based on a chapter in his life and
apparently intended to call nttontlon
to li la greatness. But, on closer scru
tiny, all of this Is seen to bo one of
Mr. Shaw's characteristic showman's
tricks for arousing his reader's In
terest before preaching a serious
doctrine.
So, after lending up to a hard rap
at tho poor mlddlo class parents who
overestimate the dignity of clerk
ships nnd underestimate the dignity
of labor, Mr. Bhaw 'continues:
"You cannot make an Arab a
clerk; you cannot make a North
American a clerk, but you can make
nn Imperial Englishman a clerk
quite easily. All you hnve to la to
drop him Into a poor middle class
family with a father who cannot af
ford to keep him, give him capital
to start life with or carry his educa
tion beyond the elementnry stage, but
who would yet be disgraced if the
son became a worklngman. Given
these circumstances, whnt can the
poor wretch do but become a clerk?
""In a genteel modification of this
course I became a clerk myself. My
father was a corn merchant and mill
owner, and, like ninety-nine men out
of a hundred, pursued a routine he
didn't know anything about and at
tributed his difficulties vaguoly to
want of capital. He landed in the
Bankruptcy Court, and as a result
I spent four and a half years in an
office before I was twenty years old.
"I may have had a comparatively
easy time, but I didn't get much
pay as a clerk, of course, I was
always 'lenrnlng' even .though I
reached a position of responsibility.
One of the worst things about being
a clerk, I found, was that I always
dreamed myself back In the office
during sleeping hours, my employer
tluiB swindling me by annexing a por
tion of my out-of-offlce time.
"One of my clerkly acquaintances
was an ancient bookkeeper long
since dead whom I asked cne day If
he Intended to make a bookkeeper ot
his son. He was usually mild-mannered
but suddenly he became vehe
ment to the verge of fury and de
clared that rather than Bee bis' son
a clerk he would have let him die In
the cradle. I wondered whether the're
was any clerk alive who' really liked
being a clerk and who would choose
that occupation for his son.
"When the bookkeeper died my
employer offered me his Job, but I
refused. Ho wanted my place for a
relative." London Correspondence

Farming on tho Yukon,
W. M. Swtnehart has compiled for
publication the results of his experi
ence In farming at Fort Selkirk, and
these show that, taking one season
with another, tbe crops raised and the
prices received for tbe product are
sufficient to cause the average farmer
In the States to look to the North
with envy. Oat hay, the chief crop
produced, yields-about three tons to
the acre, and sells readily in the
spring at from $100 to $125 per ton.
Demand has never been lacking for
all the hay the farm produces, since
the Dawson-White Horse stage line,
on which from 256 to 400 horses are
used every winter for several months,
passes within a few miles of the
farm. Potatoes yield from three to
five tons to the acre and bring as
much as twenty-five cents a pound.
The average price for a series of
years has been a fraction over twenty
cents a pound. Rutabagas yield six
tons to the acre, and sell for six cents
a pound, or $720 an acre. Carrots
yield three tons to the acre and sell
for fifteen cents a pound, a return ot
$900 per acre. Cabbages vary in pro
duction according to season, ranging
from three to eight tons to the acre
and the price ranges from fifteen to
twenty cents per pound. It is on

Congress has directed that all rev
enues received from forest reserves
ahall be turned- Into the Treasury,
which is a businesslike procedure. It
has given the Forest Service $500,000
with which to develop the reserves
and execute a policy which will work
in the Interest of all the people, as
serts the Washington Pout. The Pres
ident has stoutly supported Forester
Pinohot in elaborating a policy which
will save the national forests to the
people, and the country generally, w
believe, will approve of .everything
that has ibeen done toward that end.
Says the Hartford Times: "Upon
the health promoting Tirtues of fresh
air too grent emphasis cannot be laid.
No better prescription than fresh alt
for a large number of classified ail
ments Is known to the medical profes
sion. It fresh air couldn't be bad fol
the asking or hy opening the window
It would be appreciated a greai deal
more. There are many gospels and
