Many formers tidl off the lion's rained on the farm mid buy the lianis and bacon lined in the family, (riving ns an eieu.se that a well-arranned smoke house is too expensive for them to have. The smokehouse shown in the Illustration, while a homely affair, gives good service and will eost hut little to Iriilld. A dry Roods box or a piano box will answer the purpose nicely. The bottom Is removed from the Imix and a hinged door is arranged as shown so that the meat may be easily put in and taken out. This rover Is arranged so that It can be fastened with n staple and hook when the meat is bclufj smoked. The smok liill arrangement of this box Is an Ideal one. A bole Is due in the prr.und six or eight Tcet from the Imx and a trench dug from the hole to a point about tlx; middle of the box. Have a length of move pipe fastened to an old, heavy tin kettle. Into which a hole has been cut by ttie tinsmith. When ready to smoke the meat build a lire of corn cobs in the kettle, set It In the hole and add stove pipe lengths to the cen ter of the house, terminating with an ellxiw. After the fire Is well started rover the kettle with a piece of tin. to force all the smoke possible through the stove pipe Into the house. All llliMK MADE SMOKE 1IOI SE. cracks about the house should be tilled In so that the smoke will not escape. This is a crude affair, but It does the work quite as well as the most exp.-n-mve appliances at inched to smoke houses.

Either plan Is good, but the main tiling Is to apply the mulch and do It as soon s the ground Is frozen. While the plants may not need protection from the winter, the mulch will aslst In pro tecting the crowns and the delicate run hern and new plants which set late in the aeason, and It keeps the soil from becoming compacted by the heavy rains of winter. In all sections where there Is winter, mulch Is desirable for straw berry plants, and ns It costs but little ind la qnlrkly applied, there Is no ex :um for not doing the work and reap ing the profitable returns.

I have had an experience of ten years, with four different makes of In cubators, and have learned a few nee- cssnry things. One is that" any incu bator, if rightly handled, will give good results, or when poorly handled will make a failure. The best hatch I hav ever made was !!.'! per cent, the poorest Vi per rent of fertile eggs. I have raised with brooder 70 per cent of chicks, and without brooder only about 50 per cent I have found that a child cannot oper ate one, as it requires brains, commot sense and Judgment, with a knack foi surmounting unexpected, dillicultics Too much attention is worse than not enough, twice a day, If properly adjust a" ed, being nil that Is needed to look af ter a machine. Avoid too much moisture. I use nont now, having nearly spoiled a hatch !i that way once. Cool and air eggs onct each day, and turn twice. Don't fusi with eggs or chirks. Extremes of heat say from !K) to 110 degrees, not too lonf continued, will make shells tender, am give better hatches. Chicks are ai healthy as those hatched under hens and have neither lice nor mites to con tend with. One Incubator holding 2(H eggs requires about the same care ai three old hens on forty-five eggs. A moisture test is absolutely necessary The picture shows how the egg shoulr look at different periods. A cave oi cellar Is the best place to operate ai Incubator. A brooder should face tin south and have sunshine. Mrs. L. M Lutton, In Farm and Home. KeCilinu liamniccil Corn I-'oil-ler It is utterly useless to feed damag corn ft diler to cattle that are designee for market, for they will not gain i pound of fat on It.

Thej will cat a little of It and break up mor of It, so that It can afterward go to tin hogs to nose over and from there to tin manure heap. In many sections the oa crop was heavy, but In many Instance) badly damaged. If too badly damage to sell to advantage, It may be fed, to gether with barley and ollmeal, to grea advantage, giving it freely to catth that are being fattened as well as ti milch cows.
