We Invite communications from H pcraon who are
Intcnatrd lu luaitur properly belnuxtUK to tula ae
litrtiueuu Breaking up Broody Hens.
There Is but one way to break up
broody hens, successfully especially
that persistent class, the Asiatics, as
they make up their minds that It Is time
for them to try the hatching process, for
a change, when the end of their second
litter of eggs come about.
Novices In fowl raising resort to all
sorts of methods to effect this, and most
of the plans adopted by amateurs are
either futile, cruel, or meaningless.
Ducking hens In cold water, tying them
by the legs to a stake In the open air or
sun, shutting them In a darkened, al
most air-tight barrel, twitching them
rudely off their nests and throwing
them to the ground a dozen times in a
day all this nonsense is of no avail
whatever.
The better way, as a general rule, Is
to permit the broody hen to sit a few
days, say for a week or two, on glass or
wooden eggs, and then remove her from
the nest altogether. Keep her away
from her former laying-place a few days,
and she will give it up. She needs a
little rest. Let her have It. She will
shortly go to laying again, and forget
the broody fever.
But if we determine not to allow her
to sit at all, then it is necessary that she
be watched carefully ; and the very first
night she is found lingering upon the
old laying-nest, take her away from it
entirely, before the sitting fever has time
fairly to take hold of her.
Place her in a small coop by herself,
upon the ground, and keep her confined
for three or . four days. If you have
two or three birds thus disposed, put
them altogether in the closed coop, and
introduce a vigorous young cock to the
little company. In less than a week, if
they are fed lightly they will get over
the sitting inclination, and give you no
further trouble. The Poultry World.
Flower Beds.
To cultivate flowering plants to the
best advantage requires as much care in
the selection and preparation of the soil
as any other crop. No one would ex
pect to grow a crop of cabbages in soil
overrun by the roots of trees, and shad
ed continually by their dense foliage,
yet how often do we observe flowers
placed just in such circumstances pro
ducing a few meagre flowers, and dying
just as soon as there comes a hot sunny
day. Most flowering plants bloom on
the point of branches, and therefore to
procure a continuance and vigorous
growth, select an open exposure where
the sun will have free access to the
piuni, uig me grounu very aeep, ana

rtnapd mantira an tt-iaf iVia rnnfa n,ar

Jiave supporting resort when the surface
moisture falls. A small circular or oval
bed ten or twelve feet in diameter, right
ly prepared and planted with flowers
from potB, will produce a continued
mass of flowers even in the dryest
summers. In arranging the plants
there is much room for taste, and even
striking combinations may be secured.
Practiced Farmer.
Seed Wheat.
Farmers, in running your wheat
through the fanning mill after thrash
ing do not be satisfied with merely
making clean seed ; aim at producing a
grade of wheat that will weigh ; run it
through the mill until every shrunken
and small seed and weed is screened and
blown out, even if you have to run it
through three times, yes even five times ;
aim at obtaining good plump heavy
grain and when you harvest your crop
another year you will see the benefit of
giving time and care to the selection of
seed wheat. This is the way to improve
crops ; do not look only , to good culti
vation and manuring; select good seed
as well. If farmers would take more
pains with their seed as well as to the
fertilizing and the cultivation of their
crops, they would have a greatly in
creased product per acre and consequent
ly with less cost and more profit.
Buckwheat.
Buckwheat is one of the most staple
articles of poultry food. It is very
fattening, an excellent egg producer,
and very much relished by poultry. It
is not perhaps used so extensively here
as in Europe. In England, France, and
especially in Germany, it forms not only
an important part of poultry food, but
is much used for various culinary pur
poses. The great advantage it has over
other cereals is that it thrives luxuriant,
ly even on the poorest land. Those who
have not tested its value as a poultry
food, we advise to give it a trial.
