Editor Willamette Farmer :
As I have many friends nd relatives who are
readers of your valuable paper, I wish ti give
them my experience in poultry raising. Being
Jeft in destitute circumstances, with three
fatherless children to support, I was driven to
action. I bought twenty-five common hens
and two Plymouth Hock roosters. My hens
were youni; and healthy and good layers, be
cause well fed. About tho first of March my
brother came to visit me, and made mo an in
cubator that held 240 egg. The material cost
mo 80, and it took him two days to make it.
Between March and July 1st I hatched five
incubators full of chickcns.OGS chicks in all.
I sold them when about three months old to
the hotels in tho villages near by. Tho first
tixteen dozen chicks brought me $100, or
tfl.afl per dozen. Tho next sixteen dozen
brought $80, or ?5 per do.. The next sixteen
dozen brought 872, and tho remaining twenty
oven dozen that I sold $81; total, $333. I
E
laid for fuel $7.2."i leaving for my labor
285 "5, and this without any capital to start
with. My brother living in 1'ennsylvania
mde an incubator after he went home, and
cleared on his chicks $437. He didn't raise
as mny chicks as I did, but he shipped them
to New York and got high prices. I lived so
far from the railroad that I could not ship
mino conveniently.
An incubator is easy to manage, and takes
but little time, ono hour a davbeing Buflicient.
You can hatch all the fertile cgns and hatch
them early, before you can got hens to set. I
hive now live incubators, and expect to hatch
0,000 chicks, and I know I can clear fifty cents
en each chick. I only have a small houso and
lot. but you need but little room when you
II them so young. This is work that any
woman though in feeble health can do. In
fact it is only good exercise and very profita
ble. I know there are thousands of poor
people who would turn their attention to
poultry raising if they only knew how much
nionov thev could make at it. Any one can
fet plain instructions for making an incubator
ike mine by Bcndiug stamps to repay postage
to tho Incubator Company, advertised
jn this issue. I hope that many of your read
ers who are out of employment and have
leisure time will try tho poultry business and
report succcsa. Miu. Annik S. Cakk.
Ben Woe,
Tliero is a general complaint around the
country hero that tho lion houses are infested
with innumerable yes, millions of little mites
or lice, much smaller than tho head of a pin,
some white and others red. They cover all
the wood work (if the buiiding. Please give
what information you can for their destruc
tion. A Submikiukk.
Many of our correspondents ask "What
hall I so to get rid of chicken lLc?" I have
heard that question so often and answered it
0 many times that it is becoming a little
monotonous; still for the benefit of the allhcted
fouls mid their owners, I will go over the
ground again, and I would advise all poultry
raisers to keep this number of the FARMKufor
future reference.
"Eternal vigilanco is the price of" freedom
from lice in fowl houses. A great many poul
try keepers, whon they find their fowl houses
'warming with lice, go to work and clean them
out in short order, and then seem to think
that the work is done for all time; but tho lit
tle tormenterH multiply and incrcaso with as
tonishing rapidity, and in the courso of two or
three months the inexperienced poultry keep
er is astonished to find that his fowls have
mote lice on their bodies than ever.
If you ovpect to keep your fowls and their
premises free from chicken lice, you must
wage n constant warfare. Tho ounce of pre
vention mi tlin shape of n proper place for the
fowls to wallow ii mid nil occasional white
washing and v.aahing the perches with coal
oil h worth more than several pounds of cure
(ter the liee once get a foothold on your

discouraged, but go to work faithfully until
they are exterminated.
The plan that 1 have given repeated and
thorough trials and that has nover 'ailed mo
is to whitewash tho imido of the houses
very spring and fall, and once or twice dur
ing the summer; to fumigate occasionally with
ulpliur; to use coal oil freely as a wash about
the perches and on the backs of tho fowls; to
use sulphur or tobacco stems in the nests, and
to always keep a supply of road dust and
ashes w here the fowls on wallow in at pleas
ure. After the dust bath has been iu use- a

emptied iuo a bariel, and used to sprinkle on
the platform, and the Ihix is refilled with a

who have hail, perhaps, some little experieuce
with bleeding poultry, and who pet to won

breeding of poultry, fur market purposes, as a
buniuess, and if it it good policy to give up a

trouble can usually be confined to the flock in remarkable for constitutional vigor and eUs
which it started, by proper and prompt sani-, ticity. They have not very great muscular
tary measures. When the breeder is not too strength, are not nervous and powerful in
far awavfrom large retail markets, and es- their movements, and are deficient in the pro-
pecially where the breeder can market them f
himself, thus saving commission, freight and
loss, it pays best to keep poultry for the eggs
they produce, as eggs known to be strictly
frosh are always in good demand at quite an
increase in price over that received for the or
dinary "store" eggs. Such breeds as the
White and the Brown Leghorns, and birds
bred from them, cither pure-breu or cross

while a game cock is also valuable to breed to
good common hens, producing, as a rule,
vigorous, active pullets which are invariably
good layers. Those who wish to raise poul
try principlv for tho flesh, should raise the
Light llrahmas, Plymouth Kocks, Dark
Hrahmas or some of the Cochin breeds, the
,.t tum tiamnil however, beinz eeneral fa
voritcs. in this respect, and also combining
with it good laying qualities uuuer iuiuiv
circumstances.
Those who cannot or will not give the poul
try regular or constant attention, shelter them
properly, supply proper food in liberal quanti
ties and at frequent and regular intervals,and
pay strict attention to cleanliness and thor
oughness in all tho details of the management,
need not expect even to succeed, not to even
consider tho question of loss or profits, for
success and profit here means work, work,
work.
The Duke of Argylo is acclimating the
American wild turkey on his plantations.
This should not be difficult, as English win
ters are much milder than our own, and the
turkey is a hardy bird, usually preferring to
roost in trees in the coldest weather, rather
than in closo houses.
It pays to keep a poultry house clean. The
droppings are very valuable, and the time em
ployed at the labor of cleaning is well spent.
Though not as valuable as Peruvian guano,
poultry droppings are superior to every other
article used for manure on the farm. Bulk
for bulk, nothing but guano can equal it.
Plymouth Rock fowls are probably the best
general purpose fowl for formers. They are
not so rambling and destructive as lighter
breeds, are good layers through the year, good
mothers and the chicks are uuusually hardy,
and come early to maturity. They are the
only variety with which a late hatched setting
in the fall is not a misfortune. But with all
their virtues they are not popular with fan
ciers, who prefer breeds with a few strong
points rather than general excellence.
Always hayc good and fat poultry where
possible; in the country you may comand it.
About thrco weeks before you want to use
them, six or twelve fowls, according to your
consumption, should be put into the coop, and
as you kill one or more replace them to keep
up the stock; for the first week feed them al
ternate dayi with boiled rice and soaked
bread and milk. Tho remainder of the time
mix Indian meal with the skimmings of your
stock pot and a teaspoon of moist sugar. The
windows of your poultry house must be dark-i-ned.
Fowls should bo carefully drawn, so
that tho gill bladder is uninjured, and this
should only bo dono through the rent.
Prairie. Farmer.
The necessity for a variety of feed for chick
ens, is generally understood, but very few
peoplo arc aware of the value of sunflowers as
hen feed. They are very productive of oil,
are eaten grcodily, and give a peculiar luster
to the feathers. I have one-eighth of an acre
planted to this crop, und propose to bind them
into bundles and stow them away in a dry
place for winter use. Tho heads can be thrown
into the hen house, where the chickens will
soon pick out the seeds, thus giving them ex
ercise as well as variety. With plenty of
other grain within reach they will cut no more
sunflower seeds than are beneficial to them.
The seed can bo bought at our feed stores for
one dollar per bushel, at which pneo it ought
to be more generally used than it is. I think
a plot of sunflowers, with their great yellow
faces turned to tho sun, an agreeable sight.
Co-operation Among Farmers.
There is far too littlu of it. Attraction of
repulsion is far more common than attraction
of cohesien among tillers of the soil.
Iu many localities it seems to be tho ambi
tion of each farmer to see how much he can do
without being dependent on his neighbors.
Rich seems to suppose the less he has to do
with his neighbors the bitter it is for him.
It is not beyond the memory, or at least it
belongs to the pleasnt traditions of some of
the old settlements when log-rolling bees were
common. The heavy timber had been felled,
the logs chopped into suitable lengths, then
the neighborhood was called together to log
up the new clearini!, that is, roll up the heavy
logs into immense heaps for burning.
It was heavy and tedious work for two or
three men, hut when, by mutual consent, lit
teen or twenty strong men, with ox teams,
long chains and heavy skids, were collected, it
became almost sport to seo logs two and three
feet in diameter piled up 10 and 12 feet high.
It w.is so when log houses were built, barns
and houses with 12 and 111 inch square tim
tiiubers raised -every man regarded it a duty
to assist in such operations. It is true- King
Alcohol too often reigned.
Hut on iiiiiiv a farm, even then, as ou our
grandfather's and father's, and others whose
gnat grandsons still own the farms, the de
mon dunk was unknown, Still from the ne
cessities of the case, the habits of the people
led them to atliliate and associate where asso
ciation helped on the work.
There are many ways w hero the same spirit
would work to the advantage of farmers uow.
If they would form clubs in every school dis
trict to ttlk over the interests ot agriculture,
fruit growing, stock raising, and nvery new
enterprise. If every farmer took a go d agri
cultural paper, and would pay attention to
anything of impoitauce he had read, much
would I done to draw the youug people to
gether, get and keep them interested in each
nthr an:l in their common work bv discus
sions, essays, etc. l'hiUultUM Prattkal

A Dairy Cow.
A dairy cow never reaches perfection in her
line until (he ha arrived at maturity; and sht
uinst reach this period of her life with all her
faculties unimpaired it we expect bar to be as
good a cow as nature intended her to be. She
differs iu this resptct from the beat beef grow
tug auinuls, which are mature, as it were
from the start, and whose organization!,
instead of being impaiml for their busiuesa by
generations of high, early feeding, are rather
more adapted to it. We all know that the

creative faculties.
A good dairy cow should possess the appear
ance of strength and firmness without being
too compact, and she should possess no palpa
bly weak point if she is expected to endure
well in the work of the dairy. She should
not bo selected for a breeder unless she pos
sesses as an inheritance that shape which indi
cates strong vitality and that quality which
indicates activo secretory functions. In her
well-shaped strong head, wide muzzle, mild
eye, broad forehead, small waxy horn, slender
neck, straight and slender foreleg, sharp chin,
loose shoulder, broad ribs, open-jointed back
bone, mellow skin, preponderating hind quar
ters, long hind foot and broad forefoot, ample
carcass, well-shaped udder, large superficial
veins, soft hair, sne should indicate a capacity
for converting foid into milk, as distinguished
from that cow whoso rounder and fuller form
and heavier bone and smoother joints and nar
row head and heavier quarters show an espec
ial aptitude to take on fat. S'kcletl.
Baiting Butter.
Butter is usually salted in accordance with
tho demand of the market to which it is to be
sent. American butter ii generally salted at
the rate of about one ounce to the pouad.
Perhaps the greater part of the sweet-cream
butter has halt or less than half thatquantity.
In the fouth of Europe, indeed all Latin coun
tries, oil is in more general use than butter,
and unsalted butter is preferred. The Par
isian custom of serving butter entirely unsalt
ed is sometimes aped in England and some of
our American cities, but as a rule the mar
kets demand that the butter shall carry more
than half an ounco of salt.
Unsalted butter will keep forever provided
it is butter and only butter. But the butter
of commerce is never pure. It retains more
or les of the other properties of the milk,
and it is these which, while thev add very
much to its value, are subject to almost imme
diate deterioration, and in turn tend to injure
tho butter itself. Even salt will not long pre
serve them. Unsalted butter does not keep.
The nse of Bait in butter is more for flavoring
than for preservative purposes. The protec
tion and preservation of butter is duo far
more to the packing than to the salt which is
put in it.
The Flesh of the Improved Hon-
Swine breeders have not sufficiently borne
in mind the variation in the amount of lean
meat found in the carcasses of different hogs.
The Berkshire is universally credited with
having more lean than any other breed; but
even Berkshircs vary in this regard, as do
other classes of swine. Hence, by closely
scanning the cut up carcasses, giving prefer
ence to certain families showing liberal! pies
ence of muscular substance, these t j be used
as breeders, the relative quantity of lean
could be increased in any family or breed. It
is well known that some hogs, when reduced
to an impoverished state, are really very thin
as the term is understood, while the others,
having as meagre an amount of fat as the
thinnest, yet have greater fullness of all parts,
and under no circumstance? do they become
so lean in appearance as the others. This
difference is owing entirely to the greater size
ot the muscles tho motive parts and this
ditferenco is invariably shown in tho cut-up
meat. So it will bo seen that there are two
modes of making a very correct estimate of
this peculiar difference in swine by compar
ing animals that are, so far as we are able to
judge, alike reduced, then again scanning the
fat carcasses as they lio side by side upon the
block.

Tho liaumeistcr Brothers and others are
now making arrangements for tho foruntion
of a company the purpose of which is to build
a steam, wire-ropo tramway for lowering
grain from the bluffs on tho Deadman to the
Snako Kiver bottom The grain cars will be
worked upon the same principles as the cable
roads. Tho engiee will be stationery; the
loaded cars coming down the hill will lie part
ly counter-balanced by the empties going up.
This is thought to be one of the most practi
cable ways of getting the grain down to the
banks of the river. The Deadman bluffs are
nearly 2,000 feet high and rise very precipi
tately. It is the intention of the company to
have this road built in time to carry off the
next grain crop. Major Truax's grain chute
is lined with glass, end stands upon an eleva
tion of about 45 degrees, and yet when the
grain is moist it clogs up the chuto. At the
bottom of tho run-way ho has erected a large
and substantial warehouse, which is built upon
a foundation of solid rock. Active prepara
tions aro being made aiul contemplated by the
warehouse men on Snake river for the recep

Homestead Rights.
Pendleton Tribune.
Acting Secretary Joslyn recently rendered
a decision in the case of Julius Berg against
Wm. A. A. Perkins, originating in the Crock
ston, Mian., land district. The decision was
rendered on an appeal from a decision of the
commissioner of the general land office, de
clining to cancel, on a charge of abandonment,
the homestead entry of Perkins. Tho secre
tary affirms the commissioner's decision. The
settler failed to complete his house and make
permanent residence on the land within six
montha of entry, although he had a large por
tion in crop and had made preliminary ar
rangements for building. Failure was shown
at the hearing to have been partly, if not
wholly, occasioned by climatic reasons, and
the secretary informs tho commissioner that
he is warranted, under the act of March 3,
1881, to allow in his discretion a further pe
riod of six months, within which the residence
may be established. The secretary recites the
fact that this period had not expired at the
date of the contest, and that there is no alle
gation that Perkins had failed to meet the
provisions of the act. On the contrary, it is
lufficiently shown that he is no material
laches under it. The commissioner declines,
without referring to the act, to disturb the
entry upon the equitable grounds of long es
tablished practice, and his decision is affirmed
for the reasons given, as well as upon the
additional grounds of the legal relief afforded
by tho statute cited.
The acting secretary has also decided the
case of Andrias Schmidt against Charles II.
Stillwell, involving the latter's timber culture
entry at Yankton, D. T on his appeal from
the decision of the commissioner holding the
entry for cancellation. It appears that in
January, 1879, Schmidt purchased, at the
expense ot several hundred dollars, the im
provement and possessory right of a former
timber culture claimant to the tract, and re
ceived a relinguishment thereof, which he
afterward filed in the local office, and at the
same time applied verbally to enter tho tract
under the timber culture laws, and tendered
the fees therefor. His application was re
fused, pending action by the general land
office upon the relinguishment, but he was
instructed by the officers that his rights would
be protected, and his name was entered on
their records to indicate his claim. He after
wards repeatedly visited the officer for the
purpose of proving his entry, each time re
newing his verbal application, and was each
time advised as at first. Notice of the can
cellation of the former entry reached the local
office August 11, 1880, on which day the offi
cers, in pursuance of their promise, notified
Schmidt thereof by mail. Upon the san e
day Stillwell made his entry. On or about
August 17th, as soon as he received said no
tice, Schmidt again applied to enter the tract,
but his application was refused, by reason of
Stillwell's entry. The acting secretary holds
that this case is fairly in the ruling of the
supreme court, whicn noius mat wnere an
individual, in the prosecution of a right, does
everything which the law requires him to do,
and he fails from the misconduct or negli
gence of a public officer, the law will protect
him, or, if not fully within that decision, it is
manifestly covered by another ruling of the
supreme court. Ihe register and reeeiver,
having for a reason entirely independent of
any want of technical completentss, declined
to permit his entry, while at the same time
recognizing him as an applicant for the tract,
and entitled to the usual claimant after can
cellation of the previous entry, Schmidt vis
ited tho land office for the purpose of making
his entry, and tendered the fees, and "it
must be presumed," the acting secretary says,
"that he would have made a written appli
cation but for the advico of the officer that it
would not ba favorably considered. Although
there appears to bo no neglect or misconduct
on their part, yet their advico undoubtedly
induced Schmidt to neglect that which he
proposed to do, viz.: To make a legal appli
cation for the tract. The objection that he
did not make a written application is techni
oal and not equitable, for he had, when filing
the relinguishment, also filed a written appli
cation, hii preference right might probably
have been secured. Where a party acts upon
the suggestions of the officers of the govern
ment, he should lose nothing, unless required
by the absolute demand of the law, especially
when the adverse claim is so unequitable as
that of Stillwell's. Schmidt, upon his pur
chase, entered into immediate possession of
the tract, upon which a few ucies had been
broken, aud he broke a few additional acres,
which fact, as well as Schmidt's claim, Still
w oil appears to have well known at the date
of his entry. Schmidt is a Russian by birth,
having been in this country but two years,
and ignorant of its language aud land laws,
and this department will protect such persons,
so far as it can within the law, from the ra
pacity of those who would take advantage of
their ignorance to acquire their rights aud
appropriate their property."
The decision of the commissioner was af
firmed. The ColvlUe Valley.
Mr, James Monahan, poverument contract
or, aud citiieu of Colville valley, is in the city
this week, says tho Walla Walla Statesman,
Of that country he says, the area of valley is
limited, and most of the arable land has been
taken up, but there are tens of thousands of
lieiich lands, yet unsettled, and this will make
t;oil farming and grazing land, A large pop
ulation can be supported in Stevens county,
the largest in the Territory, being 13,000
miles in extent. He siys limestone abounds,
and when that branch of industry ii improved
it will supply building material for the upper
country that now has to come from Pugtt
Sound at great expense. Coal hsi been dis
covered in that county, and granite and slate
formations exist, and there are undoubtedly
valuable deposits through all that region that
may some time well pay for the investment of
capital and labor.
At present Stevens county is but little
known. Settler hare been attracted there
because the military post at Fort Colville had
to be supplied with necessaries, but the troops
hae been removed from that point, and the
tettlcrs will have to be thrown mote en their

own resources. The extent of agriculture 1
land near transportation that invites settle
ment will prevent any immediate influx of
population to that section, but at the rate im
migration is coming to the Pacific Northwest,
it will not bo many years before Stevens coun
ty will be better known and settled. Its va
ried resources will insure for its great prosper
ity in the not distant future,
Hopgrowers and oystermen bid fair to be
come tho nabobs of I'uget Sound. Hopj have
brought so much coin to tho Puyallup and
and White river farmers that they hardly
know what to do with it, and the oystermen
are having a large degrea of hard earned and
well deserved prosperity. Even the natives
here aro getting rich. One of them is now
having a little schooner built at Mr. Ethridge's
shipyard tor use in the oyster business. If
proper laws could be enacted and enforced
guarding the rights ot the oystermen and at
the same time protecting the beds from need
less injury, this industry would Boon be a
large and immensely valuable one to Olympia
and the adjacent headwaters of the Sound.
The large owners should units in asking the
next Legislature to enact a well-framed and
stringent law on this subject.
