At this season, when so much white
washing Is done, the following rule for
preparing tho wash, which Is used by
a large factory out west, may be found
useful. Have ready one barrel of un-
Blakcd lime and udd. while slaking It.
three pounds of glue and three pounds
of suet, tallow, lard or bacon cut In
' small pieces. Tho heat of the slacking
; will dissolve the fat, which acts like
an oil. Add also a pound of alum and

allowing about ono uioiespoomui ii u
pailful. The whitewash should be pre
pared three or four weeks before using,
as It Improves with age, unlike most
mixtures of the kind. Stir It every dny
up to the time of UBlng. It has been
used on outbuildings and wears well.

A TALK ON FANCY.
There Is what may be called a legiti
mate fancy and a frenzied fancy.
The first breeds fowls to standard
rcqulremeuts-to beauty so far as
they do not Interfere with a fowl's
health and usefulness, the production
of a maximum amount of meat and
eggs. Hut frenzied fancy will spoil a
breed to get n shape or certain color of
feather to win n ribbon. This espe
cially applies to the unnatural doublo
mating system, whereby two pens of
the same breed must be run, the birds
In these pens of different shades and
shapes, to produce a certain style male
from one and a certuln style female
from the other for show. This method
has denaturalized tho Barred Rock to
get a feather barred to the skin and
lost to this valuable variety first place
as a utility fowl.
The American Poultry association Is
criticised on all sides by practical fan
ciers for holding up ns ideals pictures
of fowls made by brainstorm artists
and making winning requirements for
white fowls Bucb that many of these
must be spoiled to get show shape. It
is hurdly consistent for this associa
tion to claim to be a promoter of the
great utility poultry industry when It
publishes such a standard as the 1910.
Its motto is really that of Poultry
Fancier, "Dedicated to true fanciers,
who appreciate the beauty in standard
bred fowls, the people whose Ideas of
beauty are not based on pounds of
flesh and dozens of eggs."
The people who have put Uncle Sam
!,on the poultry pinnacle are those who
raise1 fOJY'a for practical values, and
these are 'demanding a standard for
market poultrytTtKJ e83 and shows
where the same may be exhibited as in
France, England and Belgium. -
As the late standard of perfection
has- been called by Its own makers
"absurd," "obsolete," "unnatural," and
1b to be revised after a first sale of
18,000 copies, It would be wise for the
revisers to hear the voice of the utili
tarians nnd muke n practical standard
that will help the industry and give
foundation to its oft repeated claim
thut it has been and Is the prime pro
moter of practical poultry husbandry
in this country.
A standard and shows for utility
poultry are bound to come, as also
an association of market poultry fan
ciers that shall be national in its scope
and for the betterment and. extension
of the industry.
