MARKETING POULTRY.
The Farmer Should Pay Mora Attan-
tion to That Part of His Work.
If they could only be made to realize
It, the7 farmer and his wife would find
It every bit as much to their advantage
to attain a reputation for furnishing
the best eggs and chickens as well as
the best milk and butter, says Turf,
Farm and Home.
There is always room at the top, you
know, and that Is certainly true with
regard to poultry products of a supe
rior quality. The farm that has a rep
utation for furnishing superior milk
and butter experiences no difficulty in
disposing of the product, usually at
a premium above the ordinary market
prices. The same is equally true of
first class poultry and eggs, because it
is worth something to a customer to
know to an absolute certainty that his
eggs are going to be fresh laid and that
he need not procure an ai with which
to carve the chicken that he has
bought.. .
In view of the enormous profits of
hucksters at most seasons of the year,
the farmer, unless his location is very
remote, can usually dispose of his poul
try produet to the best advantage by
selling direct to private customer in
a nearby town. These customers can
readily be obtained by offering in the
first place only the very highest grade
products and then keeping all goods up
to this standard.
It will be found that once a reputa
tion for selling strictly high class poul
try and egss is established it can be
lost only throush neglect and inatten
tion to business. Private customers
thus secured and assured of securing
only the best at all times will be per
fectly willing to pay the highest mar
ket prices.
Prize White Wyandotte Cockerel.
It is possible that the world at some
time has produced a more beautiful
fowl than the one herewith illustrated,
but if so, his portrait has never been
published. This particular bird was
first as cockerel at the Madison Square
Garden show in New York city this
year. This is the premier poultry ex
hibition of America, and it requires
quality to win there in any class. In
the case of the beautiful White Wyan
dotte cockerel herewith illustrated,
however, there was a good deal of
quality to spare.
Influence of Soil on Color.
The soil will to a considerable extent
Influence the color of the legs and
beak. Birds running on good grass
land and fed freely on yellow corn will
usually have yellow legs anil '-oak. if
of the yellow logged varietio... Birds
from the same strain running on
sandy, dry soil, even on the same
ration, or ranging on dry alkali soils,
will frequently have light colored legs
and beak. Feeding corn is a great
help toward getting desired color in
beaks and legs, but a good run on
fresh grass land and opportunity to
run in the grass when the dew is on
it will do more to put a rich color into
the legs than anything else.
Foot Abscess In Fowls.
To cure foot abscess open same with
a sharp .knife and remove the horny
substance. Cleanse thoroughly with
hydrogen dioxide, then apply an oint
ment made by mixing one part finely
powdered iodoform with twenty parts
pure vaseline. Bind up the foot in
soft .gauze and keep the bird sus
pauded in a sling or cloth hammock
until the foot heals. Daily cleansing
and dressing with the ointment will
be necessary.
As to Roasters.
For roasting, a young fowl about full
grown, but still soft meated, is used,
and to roast satisfactorily it must be
moderately fat. Roasters are roughly
classed as "small roasters' and "large
roasters." The greatest demand is for
small roasters, weighing four or five
pounds each, though the demand for
large roasters, weighing eight or nine
pounds each, is steadily increasing. Yel
low skin and yellow legs are more gen
erally demanded than a white skin and
dark legs.
Lice In Summer.
At no season of the year do lice
trouble hens more than this. They
seem to thrive in warm weather.
Therefore we must use every effort to
help the hens out. They will do a
great deal for themselves by digging in
the dirt and dust, but it requires some
Insect powder or kerosene to rid the
fowls of their most troublesome ene
mies. Free Range For Chicks.
Fortunate are the little free range
chicks at this season. They romp nil j
day, getting the exercise and variety j
of food needed to grow bone, muscle,
and feathers. For quick growth, free
grass range is just the thing, j
DAIRY PESTS.
Insects That Trouble the Cow and
How to Get Rid of Them.
One of the best lectures given to the
winter dairy course students at Cor-
nlliVPrRlrv waa bv Professor M. V.
Eh'ngerland upon insects,
in wnicn
dairymen are interested. The horn fly
sometimes causes serious annoyance to
cows. It looks like the bouse fly, but
is smaller. These flies cluster upon the
horn, but do not eat the horn, as many
people seem to think. They suck blood
from the ansnal. The flies breed in
fresh cow manure. The eggs hatch,
and the maggots grow Into flies within
two weeks. Thus there may be sev
eral broods, and they may become a
serious pest by their rapid increase in
numbers.
One of the best remedies is to use a
repellent spray. This may be made
from one pound soap dissolved in one
gallon hot water, which is thoroughly
mixed with two gallons kerosene oil.
This should then be diluted at the rate
of one part of the solution to six parts
water. Crude petroleum is also good
to drive off these flies as well as to kill
certain other insect pests, such as lice.
The ox warble fly is the insect which
Is responsible for the large lumps or
bunches on the backs of cattle in sum
mer. This fly resembles the house fly,
but Is larger. Its eggs are laid on the
hairs on the legs. It used to be thought
that the eggs hatched near where they
were laid, on the back, and the grubs
bored in through the hide, but now It is
believed that the eggs are licked off
the legs into the mouth, hatching in
the alimentary canal, and the grubs
work from there out as far as the .skin,
where they grow and make the objec
tionable lumps, each grub having a
hole through which it may breathe.
One remedy is to smother the grub
by plugging up the hole in the skin
by the use of crude petroleum or other
greasy substance. Axle grease will
do. When they are large they may
be squeezed out. These insects have
only one brood a year. The common
house fly is responsible for' a great
deal of trouble in dairies as well as
In homes. It is a carrier of bacteria.
The Small Silo.
of small silos in Farmers
W. T. McSparran says: I
Writing
Advocate,
would not recommend any one to build
a silo less than eight feet in diameter.
Then in feeding silage It is necessary
that enough be used that the whole
surface can be fed from daily. So if
one has a silo eight feet in diameter he
should calculate on having eight or
ten, or, better, a dozen, mature animals
to which to feed silage.
To Protect Cows From Flies.
The following formula for a wash to
keep flies off cows is given by a dairy
Journal: Fish oil, two quarts; crude
carbolic acid, one pint; oil of penny
royal, one ounce; oil of tar, to make
the full amount of one gallon. Apply
by use of a large atomizer or other
convenient form of small sprayer just
before milking.' The sprayer must give
a perfect spray or mist to avoid waste.
BUTTER AND CHEESE.
There is usually a good market, even
in a small town, for cottage cheese a
good way of using some of the sour
milk, but do not let the milk get boiling
hot or even much scalded, or the curd
will be tough and will not make, such
nice, creamy cheese. ,
Best Way to Store Butter.
In a series of experiments wTith pack
ages in which to store butter it was
I shown that the tubs coated inside with
i paraffin held butter most perfectly.
All untreated tubs became moldy, even
including those scalded with hot brine,
soaked in pure brine and in brine con
taining a strong solution of formalin.
All the tubs were filled with butter
from the same-churning and kept in
the same manner.
Recipe For Cream Cheese.
Here is an English recipe for making
cream cheese: Take a quart of cream
or if not desired very rich add thereto
one pint of new milk, warm it in hot
water till about 98 degrees, add a ta
blespoonful of rennet, let it stand till
thick, then break it slightly with a
spoon and place it in a frame in which
has previously been put a fine canvas
cloth, press it slightly with a weight,
let it stand a few hours, then put a
finer cloth in the frame. A little pow
dered salt may be put over the cloth.
It will be fit for use in a day or two.
Cheesy Taste In Butter.
The cheesy taste in butter is due to
t the Imperfect removal of the butter
milk by washing. If the churning is
I stopped when the butter is in small
I grains and before it is gathered Into a
large compact mass, the buttermilk'
drawn off and the butter well washed
while In this state, the buttermilk Is
then effectually removed.
Improving Butter Quality,
The dairyman and farm wife who
often find the butter quality Injured
might keep in mind this list of ways
by which the injury often results: By
using improper vessels for holding the
milk when milking. By using milk
too soon after the birth of the calf.
By failure to properly wash and scald
and sterilize all vessels coming in con
tact with milk. By giving the cows
bad water and having a disagreeable
odor or an unhealthy quality. By al
lowing the cows to wallow In the mud
or in water in the summer, thereby
coating the udder with dirt containing
noxious germs which enter the udder
through the teat and abide there for
long periods. By neglecting the sur
roundings of the stable, allowing the
manure to rot in the immediate vicin
ity or permitting a mudhole before
the stable door or about U water
They Walked Back.
Admiral Schley was talking about
war and peace at Port Deposit Mi I
"War must sun go on, ne saia.
"Mankind is not yet highly enough
developed to be peaceful. Yet I am
in favor of ueaee societies and rjeace
congresses, lor tnese things neip
the cause of peace along. They
g f P a,
Xiouiv
The admiral mused a little ; then -
he resumed:
peace some day, for we all love it in
our hearts. The bravest fighters in
their hearts love peace with incred
ible devotion with devotion as in
credible as that which the pigeons
of Newark had for their home.
"There was a Newark man who
kept pigeons. One day he sold a
half dozen birds to a Philadelphian.
But the pigeons loved their, former
home, and the first time they were
let out . they flew straight back to
it, covering the fifty miles in no
time. ,
"The Philadelphian got them
again, and this time he clipped their
wings so that they could not fly,
but he left their hutch open, and
they disappeared. Nothing was seen
'of them for some days. Then, thin
and dusty and footsore, they limped
slowly into the old home in New
ark. "They had walked the whole wav
back."
Tribute to the Ad.
The late William Johnson of
Brooklyn, the owner of Printers'
Ink, was for many years a leading
light of the advertising business.
An advertisement writer said of
him the other day :
"Mr. Johnson had a- stock of ad
vertising stories on the tip of his
tongue. He used to tell them to
young solicitors. He claimed that
they were useful in getting business.
"One of his favorite stories was
about two little children. They
came to their mother one evening
and asked if they might play store.
" Tes,' said the mother, "but you
must remember that the baby is
asleep. Play store if you like, but
don't make a noise. Play quietly.'
" 'All right, mother,' said the
older child. 'We'll pretend ". e don't
advertise.' "
REAL MAGNATE HER GUEST.
"It has happened at last," exult
ed the woman. "I have dined at
the same table with a real magnate.
I knew it would happen if I kept
on going to that little Hungarian
restaurant where they are, all mag
nates, exiled princes and things.
"It happened last night. I hadn't
been there for a long time. I sat
at the big square table where I al
ways sit. Not far from me was a
very distinguished looking man with
iron gray hair and such a manner!
He passed me everything on the ta
ble. He bowed so courteously every
time he did it in a noble way; noth
ing servile; just a high and mighty
courtesy, you might call it. At last
I said to him :
" 'This is an interesting little
place, isn't it ? Have you ever been
here before ?'
" 'This is my first visit,' he re
plied, with a smile. 'I heard so
much of it I thought I would come
down and look it over. I am in the
same business myself.' He bowed
and smiled again as he revealed the
nature of his business.
" 'I am head waiter at the Hotel
Astor,' he said'--New York Press.
Few Whites In Bolivia.
Bolivia extends for nearly 1,200
miles from north to south and al
most 700 miles from east to west.
In all this vast extent of territory
there are only about 1,600,000 peo
ple, more than half of whom are
full blooded Indians, degenerate de
scendants of the valiant Incas. In
number of inhabitants to the square
mile the hermit republic ranks the
lowest of all the nations of the
world, having at the last census only
ninety-nine one-hundredths of a
person to every mile, while Tripoli,
which comes nest in this respect,
has one full inhabitant to the mile.

The Story ofa Medicine.
Its name "Golden Medical Discovery"
was suggested by one of Its most import
ant and valuable ingredients Golden
Seal root.
Nearly forty years ago, Dr. Pierce dis
covered that he could, by the use of pure,
triple-refined glycerine, aided by a cer
tain degree of constantly maintained
heat and with the aid of apparatus and
appliances designed for that purpose, ex
tract from our most valuable native me
dicinal roots their curative properties
much better than by the use of alcohol,
so generally employed. So the now world
famed "Golden Medical Discovery," for
the cure of weak stomach, indigestion, ot
dyspepsia, torpid liver, or biliousness and
kindred derangements was first made, as
It ever sinie has bVen, without a particle
of alcohol in Its matfe-up.
A glance Vettejfu list of Its ingredi
ents, printed onverv bottle-wrapper,
will show that It Is made from the most
valuable medicinal roivtsVound growing
In our American forestSJ All these In
gredients have received tfre stro
Iron
ann
been compiled by Dr. R. V. Pierce, oi
Buffalo, N. Y., and will be mailed free ta
any one asking same by postal card, 01
letter addressed to the Doctor as above.
From these endorsements, copied from
standard medical books of ail the differ
ent schools of practice, it will be found
that the ingredients composing the "Gold
en Medical Discovery" are advised not
only for the cure of the above mentioned
diseases, but also for the cure of all ca
tarrhal, bronchial and throat affections,
accompained with catarrhal discharges,
hoarseness, sore throat, lingering, or
hang-on-coughs, and all those wasting
affections which, if not promptly anil
firoperly treated are liable to terminate
n consumption. Take Dr. Pierce's Dis
covery in time and persevere in its uss
nntil you give it a fair trial and it is not
likely to disappoint. Too much must not
be expected of it. It will not perform
miracles. It will not cure consumption
m its advanced stages, jno medicine wul
It will cure the affections that lead up te
consumption, if taken in time.
