THRIFTY FALL CHICKS.
How to Build a Coop That WIIl Pro- tect Their Feed from the Greedy Older Flocks.
Last year I ralsed 300 chicks, but none of them grew and matured so rapidly as the late hatched September brood, and I think it partly due to their generous feeds of cracked corn. Find- ing that these September chicka were crowded from the feed boards when- ever the older flocks were fed, I placed in their yard one of the coop runs, a triangular frame of laths, used earlier in the sesson to confine mother hens near their coop. I have a dozen of these runs. They are the length of a lath and allow little chicks free ingress and egress, while the mother can but put her head through the slats. The open
COOP FOR FEEDING CHICKENS. end of the run I placed against the yard fence and a dish of cracked corn was constantly kept inside which the larger chickens could not reach. The little fellows quickly learned, when hungry, to dart between the slats of this run and eat their fill, safe from the greed of the grown flock. After snow came the run was placed in benhouses, the space between laths increased to allow free passage of this half-grown brood and the dish of cracked corn constantly kept replenished .- Clarissa Potter, in Farm and Home.
AMONG THE POULTRY.
The Java fowls are the same size, shape and about the general make-up of the Rocks, but they mature earlier, commence to lay earlier, and lay more eggs.
Changing quarters during the laying season will check egg-production. There is nothing gained by it if the fowls are always accommodated with clean quarters.
Give your fowls lime. Bury a few large lumps of lime in the moist earth where the hens frequent. Allow the lime to project a little above the surface to attract them. Lime in the shape of old plaster is also excellent.
Do not forget that the hatchet.is the best remedy for sick fowls, but do not apply it in very mild cases. A little cold in fowls may terminate in roup, but a free use of coal oil applied to the nos- trils, mouth and thront will usually keep it in check.
The male birds are half the flock. Scarcely anyone now thinks of going through the poultry season without stocking up with thoroughbred roosters of the variety they prefer, or the differ- ent varieties, if they prefer an assort- ment. It is truly wonderful the change that can be made on any flock thus .- National Rural.
Care of Young Chicks. Never keep any more feed before young chicks than they will eat up clean, wben confined in brooder, but after you let them outside the brooder always keep dry grain food in the tice them to return to the brooder, their only home. See that their feed trough in brooder is full before sundown. Chicks wurst not be overfed, especial- ly when young. Chicks must be kept wn+m. Chicks must be taught correct habits in the first days of the': youth. Chicks must have more Attention than whent or corn. These rules apply to chicks, ducks and turkeys .- Agricultural Epitomist.

Feeders must be arranged so the bees can get the sirup properly. Or. dinary receptacles will not answer, un- less partitions or floats of some kind are used to keep the bees from drowning, which they will do in open pans, etc. ! Wooden feeders are the best, and a thick piece of board guttered out in deep grooves one-half inch wide, with partitions left, which may be very thin, or a heavy block of wood, with holes bored not quite through and filled with the same, answer very nicely. A good frame of old, tough honeycomb may be filled with the sirup from some dis- tance above it with something like n common sprinkler, except that the holes are larger. This drives the sirup to the bottom of the cells, and expels the air, and when filled it may be turned over without the sirup running out, and the other side treated likewise. All feeding should be done in the night time with the above kind of feed; that is, the feed may be given the bees late in the evening, between sundown and dark. If given them during the day it will cause a great uproar among them and may result in robbing and fighting generally. L'pper stories should be used to place the feeders, and should be closed so that hees cannot pass in or out of the same from above .- A. H. Duff, in National Rural.
How to Destroy Vermin. Do not try to poison rats until you first bait them. To do so place choice food where they can get it. After awhile they will cease to be suspicious
and will anticipate the regular time for feeding. After they have found ont that you are their best friend, go to a drug store and get some phosphorous paste. Give them a double mess of food with the phosphorous paste well mixed in, and the chances are that you will kill everyone in the neighborhood. Lice, however, must be fought at all times, ss they multiply rapidly. and delay is in their favor .- Farm and Fireside.

If the horse or steer dies at three or four years old or the cow before breeding, the loss is almost a total one -Free Press, Ontario, Canada.

THE RATTLEBOX WEED.
Its Polsonous Constituent In Un- known, But Dealdes Both In Its Leaves and Seed.
The Latin name of this weed is Crotalaria sagittalis. It ja popularly known as rattleweed and wild pea. A government bulletin has this to aay of it: It is a hairy annual three to elghteen inches high, with simple un- divided leaves one to two inches long and small yellow pea-like flowers ap- pearing in July. The seed pods are about an inch long when mature and are nearly black. They are much in- flated, and, as the walls are stiff and thin and very resonant, they make ex- cellent miniature rattlea when the seeds have become detached from their fastenings inside the pod. The rattle-
RATTLEBOX PLANT.
A, Whole Plant: B. Section of Seed Pod- Both One-Third Natural Size.
box is native in low sandy soils from the Atlantic westward to Minnesota and eastern Kansas. It is also found in New Mexico. It is common in Con- necticut, New Jersey and North Car- olina, and in some years is very abun- dant in bottom lands along the valley of the Missouri, in South Dakota and Iowa.
The poisonous constituent is un- known, but it resides both in the leaves and in the seeds. Horses, and sometimes cattle, are killed by eat- Ing grass mixed with the plant. They are not poisoned so often by eating the plant in the fields, Public atten- tion was first called to the poisonous nature of the rattlebox by Dr. Stalker, of Iowa, who, in 1884, while investi- gatiug the cause among horses in Iowa, was led to believe that it was mostly, If not altogether, attributable to this plant. Experiments were made that proved the supposition to be correct. The percentage of rattlebox in meadow hay will be much reduced if the fields are burned over when the seeds mature the preceding summer. The growth of perennial grasses will not be materially affected thereby.
THE BEST PAYS BEST.
Farmer Who Grows Something Bet- ter Than Can Be Found In the Market Maken Money.
The great difficulty in making farms pay is that most farm crops cannot be assorted into good, better and best. They must be sold at so nearly a uni- form price that there is no money in it. In stock growing and in fruit growing such wide differences in value can be made that It is possible to charge the very rich, who always want the best, whatever the best Is worth more, and if it be not too easily produced, than this. So long as a man grows only for the universal market, he must sell at prices which even the poorest can pay. But let him grow something better than can be found i» the market, and he can get enough higher prices to pay him double for all his extra trouble. This is the secret of getting rich in all kinds of business. Money is to be got from those who have it, and not from those who have it not. Does this forget the poor? Not at all. The struggle to im- prove quality is alwaya changing its ground. The best of one year is thus placed within the reach of all a few years later, and another best has taken its place.
Barring . accidents from untimely frosts, it is the best fruit that pays the most profit and that can be grown most cheaply if the average of years is con- sidered. The labor of spraying with in- secticides nnd with fungicides to make the fruit fair, and the further labor of thinning it, produces so much more fruit every year that it can be sold with profit at rates within the reach of all. The very rich wfil still get the best and pay for it, but the pooftest will get more and better fruit than they ever beforeenjoyed .- Massachusetts Plough. mon,

How to Detain Fertility. A farmer may be successful and grow the land has lost its fertility. Every- thing sold from the farm is taken from the land, and the supply must at some time become exhausted. Rotation of crops, plowing under of green food and the saving of manure will assist in re- taining fertility, hut nevertheless much leaves the furm tint is never returned unless the farmer buys something in its place. Fertilizers should therefore be used ou every farm in order to keep the farm to its highest degree of fer- tility.

Clover Stimulates Growth. There are more elements for prodnc- ing growth in clover than in corn, as clover is richer In both lime and nitro- gen than corn. The feeding of corn and clover, or a variety of food pro- duces better results than when only a single kind of food is allowed, because there is then a balance in the elements required for anpport and less waste, the animal making more growth of bone when young and increasing more rapidly in weight when matured.
