Some writers say tliai to mate Bronze turkeys you have only to “ discard all specimens disqualified by the stand ard.” After 13 years spent in breed ing these birds I must say I disagree with them, for I have found the se lection of the larged ¿¿¿ctaSTClfci and In- breeding them to certain extent will Increase the slxe instead o f g r e a s in g It, but when carried too far Inbreeding will Impair the vitality and produce deformities. Therefore to properly mate these birds is. I claim, as much of a problem as mating any of the stand ard breeds of fowl. I wish the reader to remember that 1 am referring to the production of Bronze turkeys for breed ing ami show purposes. lu regard to the shape of the male I like oue that stands well up. By this I mean oue that carries his breast high, the same to be moderately full and well rounded. 1 have uo use for the bird that carries ills breast and body in a straight line parallel with the ground. The illustration shows my idea of a good shaped bird, either for the breeding yard or showroom, except that the feathers on the rear part of the back were raised a little when the photograph was taken. Se lect a bird with good, heavy bones and see that the toes are straight.

The lat ter is my preference and what I think is called for lu the standard, although plenty of judges favor the black bronze ?olor. The body and back will be dark er with brouze reflections. The legs 3hould be pink. In wings and tail are where the faults appear. Spread the wing and look for solid black feathers in the primaries, irregular barring in both primaries and secondaries and also a white edge along the bottom of each | feather in the latter. They are all bad j faults. The tail, which includes tail ! coverts, is seldom perfect. In fact, I I have never seen one. The black bars near the end of the tall coverts (1 mean the row of feathers lying farthest out on tail proper) are generally miss ing, and the two center feathers o f the tall proper always have the white tip, the black bar and the brown bar ring more or less mixed. I have no ticed the latter peculiarity In the wild partridge. Spread the tall coverts apart and look at the bottom of the tail proper, and in a great many cases you will find white barring the same as on the wing. This Is another serious fault. Some breeders are satisfied with a tail which is all speckled with black and brown so long as it has the black band near the rip and a white tip. Now 1 am satisfied that a feather reg ularly burred with brown and black, with the broad black band and dull white or gray tip. Is the proper color. Fig. 3 Is as good In color of tail as I have seen I do not refer to all the shape or col- >r sections, but only to those which tre usually faulty or In dispute. The : :ihove will give you my Wen of a good I mule to head a pen. ex-cept on one i jKiint. and that one. in my estimation, is the most Important- vlx. you should insist on having a line bred bird. If you use a bird produced from two 1 strains entirely different In build and in a great many sections lu color ns ■ well, what can you expect?

The after cultivation of strawberries consists in keeping the soil well stirred to a depth of one or two inches, but not deeper, and all weeds removed. A 14 tooth cultivator Is a very fine tool If provided with three or four fiat cutting hoes, like that shown In the figure. These are made for ms out of old w a g on springs. They cut*all thistles, dock and other weeds which may be left by the narrow teeth. The cut, from Rural New Yorker, shows how the corre spondent quoted trains his strawberry plants. He says: Our experience has been that a straw berry plant should be as near 12 months old at the time of fruiting as possible. To attain this result the runners must start early; consequently we set very early and encourage the plants to throw out runners at the very earliest jiossl- O PARCNT PLANTS y Y o u * & plant PT j ANTS AND TOOLS. bio moment. The largest, best and most fruit I h always found on those early plauta. The later plant» are weak, abort rooted and In many varie tie« partially or wholly barren. The old rule was to cut off the first run ners. This is now reversed; we now cut off the later ones. We cultivate both ways frequently until the runners »tort freely, when we train lengthwise iu ttie direction the rows are to ! k \ placing the runners iih shown In the cut—those in front of the plant, as the bedder is working, to the left, those behind the plant to the right. Tills method prevents the plants from growing together In bunches nnd nl lows the extra plants to run out I k * tween the rows, w here they can lie eas ily destroyed. Bedding is done by peo ple on their knees astride of the row, using a homemade tool very like a wide putty knife. This bedding Is, we think, the most Important though cost ly part of the culture. During the latter part of the season 1 we use hoes like the one shown, which Is 12 inches wide and 2 inches broad. This tfbe can be worked under the leaves and runners, doing better and quicker work thnn anv tool we have.
