Why 1 hey Fail. A lot of people rush Into the poultry business without any capital or experi ence, and the consequence is—failure. They read of the success of others, and Imagine they can do as well, without considering for one moment that they are not equipped for the venture. So many people start out on a scale that Is nothing short of ridiculous. To the amateur poultryman we have this to say: Do not quit your job arid expect to make a living with poultry the first year. The best way to start in the poultry business on a large scale is to start with only a few, learn all you can about chickens, and then try to breed all the good birds you can take care of without crowding the first year. If, at the end of the year you are satisfied to go ahead, and have enough money on hand to get everything ready for a larger breeding flock, as well as to car ry you through the year for the neces saries of life, then you might quit your job and start in; but remember, that this first year is what counts. You learn whether you have a taste for the business, and get a pretty good Idea of raising poultry. The second year you should be able to produce a flock large enough to enable you to go into It more heavily, and with ordinary suc cess you should make a good living off of 500 bens. We would strongly advise you. when starting, to be governed by the follow ing rules: First, start with the best to be had; second, decide what you de sire to breed for—eggs or meat; third, get one variety, and stay with It. If tou breed only one variety you can soon, by advertising t) little and ex hibiting your birds, tnake .1 reputation on them, and sell a good lot at good prices, while the rest can go to market. Do not start with the Idea that you can sell all you breed at fancy prices, for you will not be able to do so for some I time. To earn a reputation for your fowls, you must advertise for at least one year before you can expect much return. The poultryman who succeeds In selling all his fowls at good prices Is the man who has spent years In the poultry business and many dollars in advertising.—raclfic Toultryman. rowertn! Post Pnller.

Joy- 'n’ Killing Late Weeds. I have for some years made a prac tice of going through my corn with the hoe, after the corn has been laid by, nnd cutting all big weeds and cock- elburs, and the result Is that weed seed Is scarce, says a writer In the Farm ers’ Advocate. Crops are much easier to tend tlie following year, also the corn Is much easier cut up or gathered. And In the spring when you want to put oats In the field where your corn was It does not make your arms near so tired. The ground dries four or five days sooner, and so it is better all around than if you let all the weeds go to seed, and it looks so much better. Another good tiling to do is to mow all fence corners and waste places, and try to get them seeded down to grass. ANNUAL 8ALES. 6.000.000 BOXES.
