Don't Disturb Pigeons Too Often. Frank W. IeLancey, in Poultry Suc cess, says don't be everlastingly clean ing and scraping out your loft. Pigeon droppings are not detrimental to the health of your birds. Every time yon clean a loft you are disturbing your birds. 1 se plenty of air slaked lime j on the floors, and give the birds tobac co stems with which to build their nests. Occasionally put tobacco dust In the nest boxes. Locating Poultry Yards. There Is no hard and fast law that yards shall extend to the south. Most of them do because the houses face the south, and It is more convenient to j have the yards In front of the houses, j It Is all right to locate the yards where ; the conditions make It seem best to' locate them, on any or all sides of the nouse- uanamg r-igeont.

Two very popular English breeds of fiw inp nre wlnuiut: their way into the j eorn Mt of the ,vost The jj0g that wins his way into the farmers - love is the one that pays profit. inlLarce Yorkshires are increasing in . . . . 1 satisfaction. The Essex Is thriving in the heart or Illinois corn sections, and many farm ers are using pure bred boars to cross ou grade Poland-China sows. The Es- XjAROE white boar. sex boars stamp nn individuality on their pigs that tells the experienced hog man at a glance where they come from. Yorkshire boars get over 70 per cent white pigs, which speaks well for their 1 breeding propensities. The Yorkshires and the Essex nre said by all who have tried them to make great breeders and good mothers. They are meritorious without doubt and find a fair market, writes a Nebraska correspondent to Country Gentleman, in which the ac companying cut also occurs. Light Hogs Leave the Pedestal. Hog market antics have been amaz iug recently. Forecasting events twen- ty-four hours in advance is well nigh imnossihle Just what nnekpra menu is hard to divine. One day they want nothing but light hogs; the following j session finds them clamorous for cheap stuff, fine thing is certain light hogs nre abmU t , tb lmvsa am within a short time the premium w be awarded to medium weight bar rows, 220 to 200 pounds, barrows that now cut but little figure in the move meut. Light hogs have had their day Eastern growers are cutting them loose freely, and a big crop of spring pigs is coming along in the west. Old corn being scarce, new grain will be used to force them, and cholera scares will send them at light weight to the stock yards by the thousand. Already the yards have been flooded by sixty to sev enty pound pigs that were sacrificed for no other reason than fear of mortality. If the big run of sows which has been in progress for several months past should suddenly stop, weighty hogs would sell much higher, concludes the Breeder's Gazette, Chicago. Less' Quality, More Hog. During the last few weeks we have given considerable attention to the study of the swine exhibited at sev eral state fairs in the great central west. 'Ve observed closely the kind ol hogs that carried away the premiums, and we also took some pains to inquire into the type of hog which was most keenly in demand, says Iowa Home stead. The demand that comes from the average farmer who is looking for pure bred males to use on grade herds Is for a hog that shows a little more ruggedness, rather greater length and with heavier bono than those that have been winning at some of our fairs. W'e found that men who had for sale rather largo, growthy young stuff were disposing of their surplus much more rapidly than those who were offering hogs of the finer, type. When you go with your refinement beyond a certain point you nre bound to Injure the pro lific qualities of your foundation stock, and that is why the rather larger, coarser type Is so popular with the farmer trade. For Corn Feeding. A common practice with farmers In feeding corn to cattle Is to pick the small ears. After feeding for some time, especially if fed for market, the cattle often refuse to eat. This Is caused by feeding too large pieces, which makes the mouth sore. By the use of a device like the one shown In me accompanying cut no trouble KAU CORN CTTTIB. this kind win result, as the corn can be cut Hi small pkves My, Parm lid r iresiuo correspondent.

The pour little thing had been forced to stay outdoors all night In a cold rain, and It had chilled to death. The owner was too indiffer ent to even know it was dead, remarks a writer in Kimball's Dairy Farmer. Peanuts and Pork. Two carloads of hogs, fattened on Spanish peanuts, were sold at Camer on, Tex., recently. They brought (5 cents a pound, anil the feeders, Messrs. Barmore & Atkinson, report that the crops of nuts brought them good re turns when marketed iu the porkers, says Farm and Ranch. Caustic Comment. Concerning the horse show held at Syracuse. N. Y.. under the auspices of the state fair commission a Country Gentleman writer remarks: While the hacknev exhibits were unusually good. the showing made in the coach classes was little short of farcical. If the coach classes were unsatisfactory the draft classes were disgraceful. It seems strange that in a state contain ing the foremost market in the world for heavy draft horses not a single rercheron, Clydesdale. English Shire or French draft horse should be en tered in the class for stallions and three of their get or in the class for stallions four years old or over. Two long "''and crooked legged blacks ap peared in the throe-year-old stallion class, and they constituted the only exhibits in all the stallion classes. Jn six heavy draft horse classes there were but four entries, aud they were of a very inferior quality. Wormy Corn and Blind Staggers. Worm dirt in corn has been shown to produce quite serious results when very much of it is present, according i to G. C. Wheeler of the Kansas ex periment station, lie says in Kansas Farmer that quite an epidemic of bliu'l ataggers has been traced to woruiy eorn which had been fed to horses, and it would not he advisable to feed corn which is very largely affected In this way.

The producer of milk and its prod ucts in New England is closer to the consumer than in other sections. Few New England dairymen are located so far away from a center as to be out of reach of the milk car to t tie city, the cream gatherer for some butter fac tory or cream shipping station or the choose factory. mm 1 cure any case beyond the reach of For Sale by STAFRIN JKM'IST.
